Photos From Yesterday

I have to get Nathan taking more photos. He's not like me attached to the camera but I am nagging as I want to know what I am missing.

I did send some Timmy photos so he could send them on to his mom and dad so hoping he did that. If not, you can nag him. :-)

Not a Dog

I look at the photos taken and I get this - not a clear dog photo in the bunch. Oh well.

Yes, we have a flying squirrel or two.

It's a riot to watch them in action. I can see them out my window.

The dogs think they are great fun.

In Wasabi fashion they have learned to bark at them and chase them - oy!

Hmmm

We will update this blog later today. Or maybe Nathan will take it over - who knows till the all night vigils stop. He has a pulse on what is going on with the dogs. Me - I just hear it from him and Dennis and I have stolen moments or grooming experiences. Oh well...

Snow Dusting

The dogs are really reacting in a positive way to the dusting we had. Unfortunately it is now gone. Timmy thought it was delightful. Jeannie pounced in it as if she was a cat.

Ah to miss snow again.... Did get Timmy brushed up, snuggles to all and back to it.

Snuggle Times

Timmy and I and a slew of others had snuggle times - well not a slew but you know what I mean and I feel so lucky to have them especially right now.

Hoping Nathan takes photos today. I only seem to get them of the pups lately.

Trying to stay awake but its a struggle. 4 more hours...  So if I don't make sense - please understand.

The Spice and Treasure is sleeping and I am watching some silly animated movie while I sit with them about a princess that turns her mom into a bear. Can you guess the name?

Hmm a Day?

Nathan was too busy trying to get the snowflakes in the photos that we had that he didn't get Timmy's face but the dogs were out in it and for a bit. We had a good amount of white stuff flying through the air but it didn't stick.

Timmy didn't mind one bit.

He is literally having a blast. He's like a dog in a store of bones. He just plays and plays and plays and then crashes.

No worries about this one having fun. He finds it and if someone doesn't want to play, he moves on and plays with the next.

But too funny with Tangles he wants to lay on top of her and possess her. Oh so funny. Is it that she is smaller and younger and not as mouthy as Jeannie? Time will tell!

Update on Saturday, November 24, 2012 at 7:44PM by Darlah

I groomed Timmy and he almost said - ARE YOU KIDDING - okay he didn't talk but his body language did. He loved the treats - 2nd grooming so far so he will get used to the routine.

He snuggled up against me in the tv room while Nathan gave me a break. He's such a fun boy!

Life's Bleeps

Nathan managed to capture this moment. When I am doing all night vigil I get up, groom, play as much as I can but I essentially take over for Nathan so I miss the dawgs.

I miss them sleeping with me. I miss our moments other than grooming and my usual snuggling every chance I get.

Last time I did this and finally got back to bed at night the dawgs were delighted and piled around me being so attentive.

I swear Nathan doesn't understand it. They love him. They miss me. It's all okay and eventually it will be the way they are used to soon.

Hoping by Monday life is normal. Here's hoping!

American Thanksgiving

Okay, this isn't about dogs but I am missing Turkey and stuffing and cranberry and gravy - argh.

Maybe after everything calms down I can get a turkey and make it. Eating - well let's put it this way I lost 3lbs since this craziness but I needed to. Still, it tells you how much I am eating.

I love to give the dogs leftover turkey - a slight amount too and I can even dry it out for treats.

Oh well... no Canadian - no American Thanksgiving and I didn't even watch the Macy parade (I was in it as a kid playing drums).

Oh well - after all this maybe I can have the finer things in life like getting out, eating turkey - feeling human.

Kiss the dogs and love them. Today after Timmy arrives I am going out in the backyard and play with all the dogs and click photos. Not sure how I will get a gallery together but that's my plan. You?

Snow?

Think we will have snow this year?

They are forcasting another snowless winter. I hope not.

Its not good for disease, for plants for the bug population.

Guess Who

I will tell you that this one is a Wasabi pup.

The rest, you figure out. :-)

Know Who It Is?

Seeing I will be sleeping all morning and grooming Panda, Logan and whomever else I can fit in during the afternoon while there is 3 of us.

I figure I would play a game - do you know who this is?

Me & Fiona

Old Photo

We are a little busy.

I have to get Logan and Panda brushed up as soon as Nathan gets back here and then we wil be ready to go for Spice.

These are fast blogs as I am not sure how much time I will have later on if any. First timers can go a short time or a long time.

I just love my dawgs. It's time like these that I worry but we know what we are doing.

Nathan is now singing - It won't be long now - hahahaha

More tomorrow!

Shake the Sillies Out

Don't you just wish that you had to shake the sillies out as you are so lost in them? Too often we can't find the sillies and we all need them at times. 

Learn from your havanese and get silly even if its with them today.

Tug Toy and Squirrel Hunting

Angie gave the dogs this toy and they ADORE it! Thank you for the fun dog gifts! The dogs are having so much fun with them. Our deepest appreciation!

I will tell you, Shoshi won the tug war this time.

Earlier today Abigail won the tug war and then Jeannie did.

I don't have a photo of it but earlier today Angie was here and saw the rabbit that we have. It's a bold thing.

We also have squirrels that are on our walls and Wasabi has a high prey drive. Not all havanese do. She doesn't hurt the squirrels but she likes to catch them by the tail and then let them go. It's a game for her, I suppose.

Today, she jumped up on the BBQ and on to the railing as she saw squirrels on our wall and then went for a huge leap at the wall but Nathan caught her in mid-air. I am just glad we go out with the dogs so he could stop that end result. Where was the camera when that happened? In the house, of course.

Wasabi reminds me she is the most agile being but what did she think she was going to do when she reached the wall? Silly dog!

Does My Heart Good

It really does my heart good to see these two play together. It's a riot. They have played daily since Roxie was a pup and have never stopped.

They have the greatest bond. Abs is also close just like that with the panda as she sees her so much. rather nice to see such a relationship cultivated and nurtured.

Charlie's Got His Game On

It doesn't matter who is here, Charlie is a play monkey.

I have to laugh as its been a long time since I have seen him and he remembered us for sure. I am glad they have fond memories of us. That does my heart good!

Charlie and Logan played up a storm. The other day it was Charlie abd Cody and it is Charlie and Jeannie and Charlie and Roxie and on and on.

He doesn't descriminate - let's just play and then I will crash on your lap when I am exhausted and he does.

We had a fun filled day but well Charlie just caught my eye when looking at today's photos. Havanese are so much fun!

Looking Back

Someone asked me for snow photos so I started looking through my older photos and came across this skinny svelte thing.

Don't worry about the snow. The havs can have an amazing time in it. It's a new type of fun.

If you are like us you will shovel under benches, clear out little dens for them to hide and pounce out of and make paths so they can run like hey around your yard.

PS: It's better than mud. Also, did you see a coat on this one? We don't coat ours unless its VERY, VERY cold. They will let you know if you pay attention by lifting their paws or shaking.

Boring Times

I have to tell you every day is the same old thing. They run, they play. Oh, it is SO boring. But if this is true then why am I laughing and clicking and saying look at that and why is my heart getting so warm from my eyes viewing such boring times?

If you haven't figured it out, I am teasing. Indoors, outdoors, we always manage to have fun and when times are quiet we snuggle, watch tv and play catchup. It all works.

Here's a few photos taken today. I am still doing paperwork for pups going home and much more so no time for galleries for this blog - sorry.

Run, run, run as fast as you can!Jeannie better move those huge legs of yours!

Collision TimeSisterly SparringTogetherness!Indoor Fun TooHere are just a few photos taken by me today. The dawgs are all laid out every which way playing recovery. I can't imagine why. :-)

Visitors

We had human visitors over today to see the pups and the dogs got to meet them and socialize for a bit. It is always so good for them.

It's been a very busy day today as I had a lot on my plate and still do.

In among visitors I have all the stuff I must do to get the pups ready to go home except the bath. I only completed 2 pups. :-) My goal is I must get everyone done before Spice decides to have pups.

I am hoping I make a larger dent tomorrow. Levon also gets bathed late tomorrow and photos will be placed up. He is the first to go.

I am still trying to figure out how I do the getting the pups ready, the baths etc That's it - it's time I teach Nathan to bathe - yeah right!

I am going to miss Levon! He has a very fun spirit!

PS: Lori and Roger - Scruffy is an amazing play monkey - don't you worry. I just didn't click him - sorry. But he is having crazy fun!
