Oh the Play

Here is the gallery.

Winston and Alfie had so much fun. All the dogs play in some capacity depending on the time of the day. 

It is back to being wet outside. I have been busy grooming. We got the vet visit tomorrow and lots to do for departures.

Today, I fell over an xpen. I scraped my knee through thick pants. I wrenched my neck and back and hurt my grooming hand from I assume was breaking my fall. Nathan ran upstairs and said are the puppies okay? He did say he asked me how I was but I never heard it. I guess I was in too much pain and I am still in pain. He had to pull me up to a standing position as I was not capable of moving just yet.

I had 5 dogs to groom so that was interesting but seriously the hand hurts less than the neck and back. The knee is just a broken skin scrape. That was my fun.

Dennis is on night shift now so he sleeps till noon then he is now sleeping till 8pm. That means I am doing pups to play, Cinnamon, blogs and grooming and everything to get ready for the vet and departures. Oh boy...

Despite the wet, the dogs still went out. We have a light dusting so wet but not muddy - hooray.

We still have dogs in heat. Hopefully soon done.

It is almost TV time for Nathan and the dogs.

Dogs are playing as I type.

Oh no! So sorry to hear that! I hope you recover soon, back pain is not fun. Thank you again for taking such good care of our babies!

Quite a dramatic fall. I am indeed in pain. Got bruises on my back, on my knee but not on my hand - how interesting.
