Sunday Clicking

Roxie just had a bath and I was trying to take a few photos of her - okay more than a few. She is such a beauty!

Here are a few photos Nathan clicked this morning other than the Ms. Roxie.

It's getting to be the end of March Break. A few more depart on Monday and Tuesday and the house empties out. Dogs come here and there but the holiday crew is mostly home and enjoying their families.

Adele is in heat. The daughter kept forgetting to set a spay date so she is now home. She was supposed to be here till Monday night but the boys were beside themselves literally and I have a terminal headache from the whining. So off they went to spend time with the grandkids till Adele is over the heat. That will save the Kat, stone and Truffie madness. 

Life....

St Patty's Day

Cara wishes Willow and mom Jeannie a Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Our senior gal, Shoshi loving the cold outside.

They really love the sun baking you can do outside. 

Check out today's gallery.

We play. We eat, we snooze - what a life!

March break is coming to a close. I took a half hour nap - who knew I needed it so and Saffron tucked herself into my neck and slept with me till a noise of Nathan coming downstairs woke her up. heh

Usually as a tradition (I am not Irish) I cook corned beef and cabbage with potatoes and carrots. I like to celebrate everyone's holiday. It gives me an excuse to celebrate with food. But we will have to buy some next week. It's a simple meal. In a slow cooker throw the corned beef the night before in water with a couple of bay leaves, spices etc. Next day add carrots, potatoes and the last 20 min add cabbage. Remove a piece of corned beef, potatoes, carrots, cabbage. Add butter and there you go. If the dogs are lucky, I give them a tiny piece of meat. I love easy meals. One day an Instapot. Too many gadgets heh but always thinking of a great way to cook meat to add to the dogs meals. It's all about the dogs.

Messy Look

Went to the Home show with Sherry. We had fun. Poor Sherry is still sick. Ate at Burger Priest - my 1st. It was good. Came home and brushed out a few dogs, took photos and videos of the pups and here I am blogging.

Here is today's gallery.

I am told Dennis got up at 4pm. That left Nathan doing it all. I got home and Nathan took a nap. LOL

The dogs had fun today. Coco departed. I am exhausted but dogs snuggles are the BEST!!

A Cool Warmish Day

We had a great play day today. It was almost warm today. Well warm enough for this time of year.

Here is today's gallery.

Not much of a blog as this playing catch-up has been interesting. Comb, comb and brusha brush. 

Tomorrow Sherry and I head to the home show. 

Olive arrived. I do believe she is the smallest pup we have ever produced. She is such a cutie. I believe she is 6lbs and solid but small. We are going to have fun with her. She is Saffron's and Murphy's sister. 

Some went home. Some arrived. It's March Break. :-)

Just a Dusting

Ella is getting in shape for diving in the pool. Let's practice position.

Dogs have been having a ton of fun. We only got a dusting of snow today.

Here is the gallery.

The pups are so adorable. They play their hearts out. Coco tries to tell Spirit it's all my food. It's a riot. Spirit says really and just almost sighs. They are so enjoying each other. 

Nora has taken over the kitchen chair. She so loves sitting with Dennis. Penny departed.

Check out the gallery for puppy and adult fun. They so make me laugh.

I wanted more snow. I have now almost played catch-up with all comb-outs today. I think Nathan was busy as he left it to me. LOL

If anyone is going to the Home Show (Canada Blooms) on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, please if you want company - I am looking to go with someone. I was supposed to go with Sherri but I think she got the flu. <sigh> Will watch your dogs no cost. LOL

Saffron was beyond excited to see me and is each morning. All the dogs were. It has been an amazing reception that has lasted. 

Tomorrow, Marlee, Sadie, Brady, Toby and maybe Leo departs. Friday Murphy and Coco and girl Murphy and Reggie arrives.

Normalcy

It's back to normalcy now that I am back. hahahaha This is Teddy who just came for a bath and trim. Isn't he a beauty?

Here is today's gallery. 

Nathan is taking his nap - 1st one since Friday. Dennis is up. I am blogging it and taking care of Saffron and the pups but I am tired. 

Here are the pups after eating lunch. It's fun to have the pups back for a visit. They are really enjoying their holiday too. 

I am playing recovery but also combing this one or that one here and there.

The dogs are still happy to see me - yes that includes the visitors. LOL

Playing Catch-Up

I heard the dogs had a blast while I was gone. All I know was the reception I got and it was over the moon delighted! 

Here is a huge gallery. There may be some bad photos in the lot but I am too tired to care. Poor Nathan is off to get my ipad, cords etc at Tracy's house that we left in the car. He is exhausted too. 

I have to say my legs hurt from all the walking. I got a few clothes and a steam cleaner and dog toys - of course. Couldn't find anything for Nathan despite looking hard but I did get him a neck pillow as all the shirts were made for 20 something skinny bodies - something about slim fit and anything I saw was like that. sigh. How's that for a run on sentence - take that English teacher!  Did get him bagels and slaw and pickles. heh

Dennis got chocolates as he is a choco-holic.

Till tomorrow. Oh am I looking for bed, Nathan and dogs and according to Tracy I snore fierce. LOL Nathan and the dogs don't mind. hahahah maybe that is why Nathan needs naps.

Home Tonight

Look for updates as much as I can muster tonight.

Holiday Blogging It

Nathan says he is doing well. Jon and Dennis are helping him. I can’t update with a gallery but will after I return home tomorrow night. I asked them to take photos and save them. They have no time or clue what it takes to put them on my computer, create galleries and resize photos but to be honest other than you missing out, that’s ok. It is best for them to focus on the dogs vs. Doing blogs. 

i know this is not fun for you but we will play catch-up. Nathan tells me they are having a blast. Him he is tired. I think he will know what it’s like without me. Hope he brushes as dogs depart. Till tomorrow night and I promise a gallery then.

Off

Well Nathan is not sure about updating the blogs so I may be doing it remote and finding out how things are going.  Stay tuned. Here I type not trying to wake anyone up. I am surrounded by dogs. I must admit I did crash so watching Pups via my iPad didn’t come till now. The term exhausted comes to mind

This is is my first mini vacation I think in 15 years. Wish it was not so short but then again how will Nathan survive without me? Plus I am going to miss out. Crazy mixed feelings.

I am having an issue resizing photos so may just have to text update. Nathan says everyone is doing well and they are surviving. It’s snowing here in Montreal. It’s windy. It’s cold. We have walked a lot and bought nothing and had bad food. LOL

Meeting of the Minds

I am literally trashed. It's a miracle I am awake and I still have to pack and depart at 7am. But I am glad Saffron had the pups during the wee hours vs. tonight at the same time. 

The dogs have been having a blast. We have some hail out back and it was so light they didn''t mind.

Here is the gallery. I didn't even look at them. Sorry. Usually I take out blurry ones etc but I am too trashed. 

I have had 3 hours sleep. Nathan is napping now. He will have had 4ish hours. Dennis will go to sleep at 430 and sleep till 10. He's on night shift tonight. 

I get to sleep with the dogs tonight - hooray@! It's March Break so its a full house. Pups are a riot! Adult dogs too. It's as if they were invited to a party and they are making the most of it. I look at them with eyes half open and smile. I want their energy.

Look for Nathan's updates. I will be reading but not updating till Monday or Tuesday night. I will be home Monday night. I may need rest from the rest. LOL

Two Updates Today: Coco and Breeze

Darlah,

It's my Birthday and I am 8.  Birthday wishes to Raylan and Breeze and my other brothers and sisters I am just laughing out loud.

LOLTA

Carol

Celebrating Breeze's Birthday in Florida!

Hard to believe she is 8!

They get for so many walks here and we all love the weather here.  They are so friendly and we have met so many people and dogs because they are so cute!

Our duo are the best and we are so blessed to have them in our lives. Thank you for doing all you do to give  the love to your pups and their Moms.

We are all snuggling in bed and we are all tired at night here🐶🐶❤️❤️

Love them so much and they are our babies👍👍🐶🐶❤️

Hope all good with you both and the crew and see you are always busy looking at your website.

Love from Breeze, Chinook, Al and Shelley

Dogs Just Want to Have Fun

The theme of the day is fun and we have a lot of that. March Break begins and we will have a full house with fun, fun, fun!

Check out the gallery. 

We also have a double class tonight. Looks like Saffron is cooperating. I have been so busy I can't think straight. 

But oh boy are the dogs fun - in a wow way!

Tchibo departs today. Grace and Tia also. they were here just for the day. Elvis got a bath as he had to have one. 

Let the fun begin!!

Cool But Fun Times

Elvis really likes the girls and can you blame him?

Most times you can always catch him with a gal. He is due for a bath as he doesn't go home till the 22nd and if I don't wash it will make his hair hard to maintain so he may be getting a bath tonight. He will get another when he goes home.

Catch the gallery here.

In the gallery you will see dirty feet on Inula despite her having a bath today. Nathan maintains her coat and well 2 minutes after she got outside her feet were black. You can't win. 

It is threatening to snow but we had a morning of drizzle. That is why the black feet. Got to love it. 

Tchibo has managed to really much it up. He is a fun spirited boy. He is wonderfully likable.

Penny likes to make the couch her own. I laugh. She loves her comfort! Marlee and Sadie has settled in just fine as they always do. Pixie and Leo are playing and playing now. It's wonderful to watch. 

Teddy and Shlomo have departed. Miss them already!

Nathan is taking a nap with the dogs - well whomever wanted to join him. Soon Nathan will be cooking up ground beef. the dogs will be sniffing the air and he will be adding it into their food. They do so love dinner. After playing so hard they have quite the appetite!

Fun in the House

The dogs were running today and having a blast.

Check out today's gallery.

Marlee and Sadie (Thyme) arrived. Here you can see Sadie under Kai saying who are you?  Oh you are my sister from another litter. LOL I called Sadie Thyme by accident and she still responds to both names. What a smartie pants.

Check out Saffron's blog for a surprise.

Tomorrow Teddy and Shlomo departs. Soon it will be March break. I want May and the pool. hahahaha

But the dogs are having a blast. 

Movie was good last night. We ate at Me-Va-Me. Huge portions - good. Sure beats the VIP movie food. It was good to get out!

Short Blog Today

Teddy goes home Wednesday. His Mom and Dad have a beautiful grandchild. He's been with us for a bit and he treats this home as his. Anyone that comes regularly has their sleeping spot, their place on the couch. It's a riot to watch. Elvis thinks they all belong to him. I just laugh when he gives someone that look - hey that is my spot so he settles in mighty close and breaths. They move and he gleefully gets the spot he wanted. What a creative way of doing it. 

Penny is in the photo above. Her mom and dad are moving to Calgary and we are loving her up extra, extra as we will have to put up with just seeing photos. They get to sell their house after March break - staging and fixing and all that fun stuff. I believe Christine can relate.

Here is today's gallery.

The daughter is taking me to Montreal Saturday to Monday. Not much time. I am hoping Nathan does the blogs but we shall see. I may be calling in and filling you in remotely. So in reality we have half a day Saturday and a full day Sunday and I suppose Monday morning eating. So no grooming this weekend. Please understand that Nathan is not up to the task. LOL My poor guy will need sleep when I get home and I see we have a time change in there. 

Tonight Nathan and I are heading to see Black Panther. That's the last of our tickets and they expired next week so figured we best go to see something. :-) No drop in tonight. It will be nice to veg together. 

I groomed everyone out, washed and trimmed 5. 

Oh and tomorrow Marlee and Sadie. I am excited!!

Shall We Dance?

The air is crisp. The dogs think it is a delightful day. No rain. No snow just coolness.

I had an easier day - just a few dogs today and I plan to relax tonight. 

Here is the gallery.

The daughter's mattress came last night and Nathan was amazing as he got the boys to take the old ones out and he made the bed so all we had to do is crawl into it last night. It is an improvement. One day a tempur mattress. I do believe the dogs enjoyed it. It surely beats a 25 year old mattress. 

Pippin is about to go home and I find him grooming challenged. I get him perfect and he rolled and makes sure he looks natural. It will be a miracle if he looks okay but we will so try. 

Penny is arriving shortly. I treasure my time with her as they are moving far away and well I am trying to make a lasting experience. LOL

The dogs really have some tight relationships here. It is nice to see. They play, they snooze, they play. Yes, it is important that they get their naps in and when that ground beef is cooking they get mighty alert. 

Oscars tonight! The dogs and I will be watching. I am not sure that Nathan will. 

Tired Day

I started at 8am and finished grooming at 745. No breaks. No eating. It's been a long day. The gallery is small as it usually is when I am unable to atke photos too.

Here is today's gallery.

Dolly and Trouble departed, so did Barney and Murphy. Tchibo, Rosie and Pippin arrived. Rosie and Pippin for just overnight. 

I am told the dogs had a ton of fun. I am truly hungry and barely able to think so I am signing off. Sorry...

Today is too long and oh I wish I could crawl into bed. Two more hours and counting!

In, Out and About

Miss Dolly surveying all. She's a riot!

I have a very crazy grooming schedule tomorrow so, blogs may be short. We shall see. 

Here is today's gallery.

We had a lot of fun today. In and out and all around. Dolly loves to watch all and then pounce. 

On Monday we head back to our play session at Whos Walking Who. 

Last night Willow had her 2nd class. See Jeannie's blog. 

So much for that huge snowstorm. 

Tv time....

Cold Again Surprise

Such a fun day. I did get everyone brushed out early but some decided to wag their tongue at me with a nah nah and wreck their hair. 

Here is today's gallery.

Charlie, Leti's baby came for a bath and a spruce up. Oh my is he adorable. Leti was thrilled. Stone was thrilled and so was Spirit. What a blast they had. 

Tonight we have class with Willow. Snow they say is coming just as I suspected but probably won't start till we are in class.

Dogs are enjoying in and out today. It's cool, cloudy but still enjoyable to them. maybe that mud 2 of the dogs got onto despite blocking the area will go away now. You should have seen their legs.  they had so much fun.... Dennis comes running in look so and so needs to be cleaned. Thanks, Dennis. 

Tomorrow Chester goes home and he has had a total blast. He is such a play monkey.
