Oh it is Saturday

Here is the gallery. 

This is Chloe who was here for a few hours. What a riot this catch was. This is Lulu's sister that departs tomorrow. Jax departed just a bit ago. We are down to 2 of Paula's pups that will be departing tomorrow morning. It has been a puppy filled weekend.

There has been a LOT of play today. There was also a lot of barking (didn't take photos then) of Nathan jumping in the pool. 

So many depart tomorrow. Will it remain quiet? I doubt it. LOL

The dogs are truly having a magnificent time. 

Two Blog Day

Here is the gallery.

We have extra pups in the house. Four are here and earlier it was 6. Tomorrow 2 and Sunday they are gone. Jax departs tomorrow. He will so miss this fun! We are doing a favour for a friend and going out to eat with them tonight. Of course we also have Jax, Yoshi and LuLu who they fawned over.

Dogs are so playing. They just finished eating (early today)Ms Coco, Charlie and Teddy arrived. Sully and Simon and Louis departed. 

Koda is an opinionated dog who loves to play. I am so laughing. Marco thinks he's a kid in a candy store. He's not the only one. They are just having a total blast.

Harlow had a burst anal gland but seems to be healing nicely and has no issue telling Opus, I play when I want to. LOL I could go on with the stories but not enough time. Sorry!

Happy 1st

Hi Darlah and Nathan, 

Happy Birthday to all of Theo's siblings!

David, Linda and Theo

Hi Nathan and Darlah,

With Frankie's first birthday tomorrow, here are a couple of pictures with her and her best friend Gehry the cat. 

Best,

Calvin 

Hi Darlah!

Just a little post for the blog later today if it's okay.

Rosie would like to wish her siblings (Dash, Maggie, Frankie & Theo) a very Happy First Birthday!

May you all get to do your favourite things and get lots of snuggles from your family!

Many thanks to you, Darlah, Nathan and Tempie for our sweet girl. She is an absolute angel and she makes each day so much brighter! Can't believe she's a year old already. Time flies.

Cathy, Stephanie and Rosie :)

Maggie (Magnolia) is a year old today. She is a delightful wee gal weighing 7.7 lbs. She is full of mischief and fills our hearts with love

Short Blogging

Here is the gallery.

Dogs have played and had an exquisite time. They are enjoying this lovely weather. Everyone just loves the no rain thing. The play is wonderful!

Tonight we have to go to the hospital to see Ruth. 

Everyone is enjoying each other.

Oh the Play of It

Here is the gallery.

It's Dennis day off. A dog chewed on his VR cable (hidden costs lol) and no matter how much he tried to repair, it would not function. A new cable - $150. So, I bought him another. Really hated to cost but Dennis does a lot here. Now he wants something metal to protect the cords. I have no clue where I will get that. But it was a costly cost of having dogs.

Dogs were and are having fun. They are awaiting Nathan and his feeding blitz. They have all eyes on him. It is a riot. Usually we feed by 430 but Nathan took his nap till 4pm. 

There is a lot of fun and playing going on. 

To note - each time I put up Astro's hair she messes it up and destroys it. I think I captured some of that in the gallery.

Changes

Here is the gallery.

It's been an insane day of grooming and my hand up my arm hurts so I am having a gin and tonic with mixed berries. That's my excuse. I started grooming at 7am and just finished. Dennis day is off tomorrow and let's hope for an easier day. I need one. 

Dogs had a delightful time. They are already tv timing it with Nathan and some are in with me and well in the kitchen and hall and everywhere.

Lulu was chasing a butterfly today. She was fascinated.

Everyone had f

Muggy Day

Here is the gallery.

Dennis and I switched days off so today is my day off. 

It is muggy. Many dogs are going home today. Logan and Panda days have been extended as they are moving. Moving is not fun. Ask Sherry. So, it is taking them longer.

Mr. Tuppy is one of the pups departing so only Lulu and Yoshi will be in bonded play.

Benji, the white glorious one is departing tonight. We had 2 Benjis here. We haven't seen departing Benji for quite sometime so it was rather nice. I won't go through everyone but it has been an exceptionally fun week. 

Had Taco Bell yesterday. Remind me why I never have Taco Bell. Well the food reminded me. LOL 

I sat outside on the outdoor furniture while Nathan napped. Someone should have taken a photo. I had dogs over every single part of me except my mouth and that was due to maneuvering them so I could breathe. 

Nathan is swimming, I had a very quick swim but the sun kept going out so I just enjoyed the mugginess - that and the dogs enjoyed it with me.

Lean ground beef is on the menu for the dogs tonight as their topper. It is time for feeding. LOL

Out of Steam

Here is the gallery.

This is Ms Holly after her groom where she proceeded to mess herself up. LOL

I have had a long day of grooming and got 1 more dog to do but figure I best get the blog done. 

I have not had dinner and doesn't look like we have anything in the house. Oh well. Nathan ate the last steak. I am grouchy - hungry and still have work to do so short blogging it.

Dogs had fun. Many depart tomorrow. Two arrive plus more grooming. No pool. That's it - sorry!

Oh Messy Times

Very few photos.

I managed to comb out a bunch of dogs and as you can see here they are mighty messy. It's raining again, of course. It is supposed to be all week other than Thursday. Dennis says he would rather play when it stops raining then click photos. I get that. He is under the belief that they need to expel energy and they do.

The dogs still manage to have fun despite rainy days. 

Sadie, Jersey, Gus, Milo and Mocha departed or departs today. Keeping dogs dry for pickup can be mighty interesting.

We were just told yesterday Ruth will not be going home again. It is no longer safe for her being home any longer. We suspected but it's another thing to hear from her doctor.

Short blog today. Despite that, the dogs get cuddles, play and simply have fun as we wouldn't have it any other way.

Part of a Day

We have some real play monkeys here especially puppies.

Here is the gallery.

Nathan and I got together with his siblings at his brother's house. This is the 1st time since before covid. We were only there a few hours but it was nice. We brought Yoshi and she got to play with Chiclet and Corey. It was fun for her too. 

Dennis held down the fort and did a fine job. Our youngest son came with us and then mowed the grass when we returned. Bonus as I thought I would have to do that tomorrow. 

We have a few dogs we have not seen for sometime arrive. A few depart tomorrow. 

After we returned, I had to groom but Nathan took a nap and well Dennis played with the dogs till I finished. As you can see, I am late blogging it. 

It's a very busy weekend but fun is had. It is quite nice to see the play. It does something to your spirit. 

Dogs were majorly silly in play today!

Let the Games Begin

Here is the gallery.

Crazy day. Reggie and Mr. Bean departed. A number is coming tomorrow and we have a family get together for lunch tomorrow. I think we haven't got together at Allan's except pre-covid. Hope it doesn't rain. I come back to groom. LOL Shall I rush? I suppose I must.

Dennis was beside himself as a puppy ate his VR cord and he can't fix it. It is his day off. I think they want 150 for a new one - yikes!

Koda, Astro, Rosey, Milo, Louie was running through the grass and getting soaked. I had to comb and dry them so no photos of that. LOL I need a camera attached to me 24/7. 

Last night Murphy and Safi was spooning. I missed that too as who takes a camera to bed? Murphy and Safi are sisters and they still have a very strong bond. It is delightful to see. Murphy heads ho me later today and Saffron will miss her. 

I am trying to make Nathan heart healthy meals and he is not impressed. 

Ozzie and get this Tuppy really really like each other. 

Opus is I think beside himself today as Ozzie is his playmate. Oh, it will change - just watch. 

Finnegan arrives tonight. 

Everyone really is playing and needs the fun outdoors between the rain.

We had a huge thunderstorm this morning starting at 4am. No one wanted to go out when we got up. Silver lining - no watering plants. LOL

Dorothy - no beans but magnificent leaves. 

The Bean and the Dawgs

Here is the gallery.

Mr. Bean arrived for an overnight. Think I will comb him out tonight and bathe tomorrow. I have had 7 dogs today already to groom. It's been a busy day. 

Nathan was at the cardiologist due to afib issues and he is slated for more tests at the end of the month plus daily testing that gets sent to the cardilogist. Joy... So, he was napping when Mr. Bean arrived but will get to see his parents tomorrow. He was disapointed he was in bed.

Dogs have been playing and hanging out with Dennis. Nathan is feeling better so he is up now. 

Dogs were running through the tall grass. I have to make time for mowing and well to be honest I have to have the drive. It's not today.

Dennis played an ice cube game today. Some enjoyed - others didn't. Some ust wanted to watch. Got to try new things to keep it fun.

Messy Dawgs and Storm Coming

Here is the gallery.

As this is my day off, the dawgs look mighty messy and they get to have a day off from grooming. We all need that every now and then. 

Dogs are full out playing - so I will have my work cut out to groom. 

We are awaiting a storm coming in. Only 1 dog here doesn't like storms so we do creative things to help him. He departs tomorrow. I can hear the thunder starting.

Nathan is off to the doctors tomorrow. I have a full day of grooming so let it be cool. LOL

There is bread that I adore at a bagel place next to Longos. Hopefully Nathan will get me some.

I have started to try to figure out what I can bake flour tortillas on so it creates a bowl. So far, I suck at it but I suspect its due to not having the right bowl. Any tips are appreciated.

Dogs are waiting for tv time and cuddles!

Chilling on a Warm Day

Here is the gallery.

Neo and a few more dogs was chilling with me on the outdoor lounge couch. They were enjoying the light breeze.

Chester departed earlier. Ruby arrived for the day. Daisy, Skylar and Leo departs later. Noah and Zoe are with us for a couple of extra days. 

This was my day off but had to cancel plans. Nathan was feeling under the weather so we or I will try for tomorrow. 

The dogs are enjoying outdoors. Now back inside with the crew. Nathan is taking a nap with a few and well I may take a quick chill out nap with the others. We shall see. 

Well short blog but everyone is doing well.

Smile

Here is the gallery.

Sorry not everyone was in the photos today. Dennis took photos while I groomed and he simply doesn't always realize who he clicks and who he doesn't. We have many dogs going home today so I was very busy. The pups are departing tonight and puppy fun will be over except for Chai and Yoshi.

We just finished dinner and Neo wanted their food and they wanted Neo's food. The grass is always greener they say.

Dogs are still having fun. While Dennis was watering the plants, some wanted to grab the water in the air. Got to love dawg fun!

Comings and Goings

Here is the gallery.

Each time I ask Daisy for a photo, she shakes her head and perks up her ears. Do you think she know what a photo is? I just laugh.

It looks like it may rain tonight but that is okay. The dogs and us (always one of us or more out with them) enjoyed outdoors a great deal. No swimming but weather was perfect for hanging out.

Dennis and I, while Nathan napped with a few dogs, watched Witcher. We were surrounded by dogs on the chairs, on the beds, in the crate and every which way. 

So far, it has been a great day. Tiny arrived (haven't seen him for quite sometime). Ruby departed. Ollie the Coton leaves tonight. Tomorrow a crowd departs. LOL They will be missed and only 1 arrives. The pups are departing so I will be doing lots of moving target grooming. Lots of grooming tomorrow but I prepped a few. That makes it doable.

Noah and Zoe depart tomorrow and have had an outstanding time other than thunderstorms. One of them was not happy with those noises. Ms Neo will have her body snuggling last night with us.

Ozzie and Tiny is like they were reunited with their long last pal. They have had to be here at the same time  previously and recognized each other. 

Mr. Chester departs tomorrow if the planes fly. He is in love with Ella. He has competition with Opus. What is it about Ella, guys? Milo has found his niche and I could go on and on. 

Tomorrow is a new day but know all are having a glorious time. Soon tv tim

Nose Touching Moments

Here is today's gallery.

Neo was greeting everyone with nose touches. It was and is ever so cute. 

We have puppy times with puppies visiting. You will see it in the gallery towards the end. 

It started out cloudy but oh boy is it hot now. It is Nathan's day off. Tomorrow is Dennis day off. 

I had to get a new pump for my bathing beauty and unfortunately it is loud. How do you know what brand to buy. I hope it doesn't bother the pups. We shall see. At least it pumps. LOL

We have had some interesting pickup days and times. It seems Air Canada is still cancelling some planes so will there be a pick up or not? Do not worry. We have your dog. We have Ollie that was supposed to be picked up at 3pm but I suspect it may be tomorrow with the flights. He's not the only one. 

Dogs are playing and enjoying this weather. I took photos where I could. We have some strawberry eating dogs. I caught 2.

We have some water playing puppies with the water bowls. Ice cubes are a hit. I need to make some chicken broth ice cubes. The dogs love them the best!

The Rain Came

Here is the gallery.

If your dog arrived today for boarding or grooming late morning to early afternoon, they may not be in the gallery. Rain arrived and we do limited photos indoors. I apologize for the groomings but the boarders, tomorrow no rain - let's hope.

Everyone is doing well and are welcoming to each other. Pups are here playing. Adult dogs was laying with me on the couch outdoors till the rain began and we rushed inside - well they did. I sat under the gazebo.

Panda, Theo and Mia departed. We are awaiting Fudge before we feed dinner. Dennis is going to see who wants to run like crazy upstairs after a quick out and in as it is mighty wet out there.

Ollie departs tomorrow after a good grooming. Oh boy he needs it. He's been combed but he likes to muck it up. 

From 12 to 1pm we will be watching a funeral in Montreal online. Nathan's grannie's sister died yesterday. She was the last of the siblings to die in that family generation. We are sad. She was 100. Her siblings all died older than her. Imagine that. 13 of them. Yes, 13.

It was my day off today. It doesn't feel like a day off. Nathan's is tomorrow.

Now feeding dogs time.

Mighty Hot

Here is the gallery.

I still have 3 dogs to do so this blog will be short. It's too hot to stay out for a long time. Geez - smoke then heat. Poor doggies but the sprinklers were on in the wee hours so the grass was cool. They figured that out fast.

Dash and Yoshi went swimming. Dash is such a strong swimmer - Yoshi too. They dried fast. Dash is going home tomorrow so it was a perfect time for him to swim. 

Dennis is about to feed the dogs and I am going to start grooming.

Dennis said he is going to do a run game upstairs so the dogs stay cool but still have fun.

Always something to complain about. Smoke, heat, rain.... what a 

Hot Day Indeed

Here is the gallery.

Yoshi got her rabies shot today and so far no issues.

Me, I groomed and groomed today and really need time off but not till Thursday. At least tomorrow is not as brutal as today so a pool break may be in the cards. Watch it rain!

Dennis got the around the pool and pathways mostly weeded. I had been weeding 90 min a day. Nothing today. I need to veg. 

I cooked a Tortilla in the oven and made a bowl and threw something called a raw salad in it. The best part was the tortilla. 

I am too tired to blog but dogs departed. Dogs arrived and well, my ipad case has broken. I think I am going to snuggle with some dogs and try to stay awake. How about you?
