What a Dental Day LOL

The dogs played and played and 13 dogs got their teeth done. Roxie, Sage and Misty was one of them and what a magnificent job. We are so pleased.

Here is the gallery.

If you do not receive your before and after photos by tomorrow night, let us know.

Dorothy was here with Pixie and Leo so it was wonderful to see her. Come back. there's a heck of a lot of wine he didn't give you. I knew I should have collected it.

Lucy the doodle has departed and as you will see in the gallery she was playing up a storm with Rebel.

It was supposed to be my day off but with all the craziness and me organizing everything as lord knows who else can do it, my day off is tomorrow. I truly need it.

On Monday night off to the Keg with Ronnie and Elana. It's her birthday. A girls night celebration.

They tell me the comments are working. Please test it.

The dogs had an outstanding day today. It was cooler. You could tell they were excited that it wasn't so hot.

Till tomorrow.

So Hot Then Rain Still Hot

Here is Ripley running and enjoying himself before it just got so hot that it was unbearable. I did not get many photos as it was just me taking photos. I went from grooming to watching the dogs while Nathan napped to blogging then back to grooming as Harlow departs tonight - so does Ripley.

Here is the gallery.

Simba departed. Rosey arrived and Finnegan comes tonight.

Thank you goes to Pippa for the truly nice gift for the dogs. Good luck on your nursing test. I know you will ace it!

Lucy and I got into a groove today with combing her out. She was giving me kisses. She's eating well. She is playing but do not think she liked the thunder today.

Nathan did manage to get a video of Luna and Dante.

Between Dante, Rosey and Ellie, they are the play monkeys that seem to get all going. It is quite nice to watch. Off to do Harlow. We will miss her!

Really Hot

Still trying to get comments fixed but if you want to say something, send it to me in mail and I will post. It's not doable but a temp fixed.

Here is the gallery.

This is Brewer lazing in the sun despite it being hot then this afternoon he went really?The dogs are ENJOYING the air conditioning. Another hot one coming tomorrow then rain on my day off - of course.

Lucy today is playing with more dogs. She especially likes Ellie.

Our pool has lost so much water and not sure why but we are replenishing it now. It may be evaporation.

Do not complain to me about havanese hair knotting, Lucy, the Doodle, I hug her and she gets mats. Doodles are known for that and so far its a 2 hour groom session per day and I still feel knots starting on her neck. She departs on Friday and that's my day off so it is up to Nathan to do the final combout.

Ms Nava is here for the day. Brewer is too and took over his recliner. He is not here as much since he moved but he has his comfort - it's all mine spots. LOL

Nathan has had downpours at the dog show he is stewarding at. Heat, double masked and rain. Sounds like a black cloud over his head.

The dogs are having a total blast. Dennis is doing the tun game inside and they are loving it!

New Visitors

Here is Lucy and Simba. Lucy is not a havanese but she's not much larger. She is still a pup. She has an unfair advantage as when Dennis does the run after him game, her legs have an unfair advantage. All the dogs welcomed her. She wasn't sure at first but she started to connect with Luna and Dante who she knows and with a number of other dogs. She is fitting in nicely with all. Now she is getting to know Nathan who arrived home a bit ago. She connected with Dennis and I well. Tomorrow is Nathan's last day. Don't message him as he doesn't check his phone even for me. LOL I do check his email.

Here is the gallery. I vow I will get more action photos tomorrow but its HOT out there and the dogs are feeling it. We play a great deal indoors but more difficult to capture. Still, you can see that all is enjoying each other.

Ozzie, Willow and Daisy departed. Simba arrived.  No pool for dogs today. I got in 15 minutes after grooming. It felt so hot I was afraid I would toast. Dennis watered the plants twice and placed huge ice balls into the insulated water dishes always maintaining the cool and I bet the dogs appreciated that.

No new dogs going in or out tomorrow except Nava for a day visit. Thursday is Dennis day off.

The Heat and Play is On

Here is Coco the maltese and Dante the havanese puppy. If you look in the gallery, you will see Coco always on top. LOL

You can also look at a couple of videos we uploaded.

We did go out and in but all and all the dogs really did not want to be out in the heat for long. It's that hot. That's okay as they have a wonderful amount of fun indoors and the sun will go down. LOL

Poor Truffie needs a brushout. He was playing his heart out but he will wait till morning. If a mess, they are having fun. hahaha Especially since I combed them out this morning.

Ozzie departs tomorrow. He will sleep and sleep after how much he played. Willow - comes for play and grooming. Lucy and Daisy too. Nathan is out for the next 2 days. He's home at night. We will have fun.

Heat will remain.

Thank you to those that brought us pastries. It is so appreciated.

I am so delighted to be seeing dogs i have not seen forever and a day - or at least it feels that way.

The Play

It may have been a really heated day but the dogs still had fun. A number departed. A number will depart tomorrow and a few will remain.

Here is the gallery.

Nathan and Dennis tell me the dogs had a tremendous time today. I started grooming at 7am and finished this evening. I even ate while I groomed. Oh boy... I am hoping for a shorter day tomorrow and get some pool time in. We shall see.

But the dogs don't mind as come bedtime I get to snuggle with them!

Hot Hot Hot It Is

Here is Nathan with Dante. I posted it as that tongue is mighty cute.

Here is the gallery.

Dogs had a tremendous amount of fun. I have a tummy ache and had lots to groom - same tomorrow - hopefully minus the tummy ache. That is why it is taking me so long with the blog.

I did get a video up of Leo and Ozzie.

We do have a semi full house but that means a lot of play and new and old relationships going on with the dogs. They all rather like each other. Now its tv time and I have dogs in this room and Nathan has dogs doing tv time.

Oh and I have eclairs thanks to Ronnie who went to St. Jacobs. Thank you!!!

Cali and Fenton departed - so did Rusty and Luna and a number arrived. Many depart tomorrow so lots of grooming going on tomorrow so I best feel better. LOL Think I will go get another Tums.

Hot Hot It Is

The dancing pair went on for about 20 minutes then started again and again and again.

Here is the gallery.

I did have everyone brushed. They may or may not look like it especially Rebel. LOL Oh to be wild and crazy. hahaha

We have a semi full house. It is nathan's day off. Tomorrow we do have a full house. Rusty and Luna are coming to visit tomorrow. We also have a number of very special dogs that are visiting. You know who you are!

Cali and Fenton will depart. So sad as they have been rather wonderful but bet they will love seeing their parents.

We have a lot of play monkeys so far. It's going to be an outstanding weekend.

Pippa's Bailey is here and her Mommy is sick with a bad case of the bronchitas crud. Terrible to be sick. Glad not covid. Still she can't see that Bailey is having a blast. We got to see her grandma on drop off. Like them immensely!

Tenshi left yesterday and they are off to seeing family for the 1st time in eons. I am ever so glad some are enjoying! We are too just not out and about.

Heat Is On

What does a havanese do after a bath? They do the run like hell game. Dear old Tenshi is departing momentarily. Keke, Daisy, Daisy and Jersey are departing today. Yes there are 2 Daisys. Barney arrived.

Here is the gallery.

Ozzie walked on the stairs today while I was in the pool. I thought maybe he would come in. He didn't but I think he appreciated cooling off his feet.

Mr. Fenton really likes the Tenshi. He will be sad to see her go.

Dennis tried the run game to try to get some great photos and to exercise the dogs and they just looked at him as if to say - hey human don't you know it's hot.

It is a busy weekend as people are going away - more this than next. It will be FUN!

We have a video up of Sage, Jersey, Spirit and Rebel.

It's a Hot One

Tenshi loves to lay on Nathan's neck at tv time. She is a riot.

Here is the gallery.

The dogs have had a great time today. A number will be departing tomorrow. KeKe, Tenshi and Daisy plus those coming for grooming. All have been having an amazing time and I don't say that lightly. Then this noon time we got Velvet and Mabel and to say they had complete joy on arrival is an understatement. They continue to be excited to be here. It has been a long time.

It will be a very busy day tomorrow and the arrival of Brewer and Barney. It will be fun!

The weather will be good and maybe Nathan will get some in to swim.

It's a 7th Birthday: 3 Blogs Today

Happy 7th birthday, Patches!

Happy 7th birthday, Abby!

You girls, rock!

Three Blog Night

Fading out.... Bailey is about to depart. Lucky already went. Holiday weekend is filling up.

Here is a mini gallery. It is Dennis day off.

Murphy, Shlomo departed and Ollie is here overnight.

The dogs had an outstanding time here and I bet the pups will fade out when they get home.

Emptying out then filling up. Seems like normal and we are so glad!

Swim and Non Swim

Only Bailey and Lucky went into the pool today with Misty. I just uploaded a few videos of the swimming and play. Bailey's mom says she doesn't like water - maybe a bath? She went back in on her own and she is as fast if not faster than her mom. Wow. Lucky did amazing too plowing along. Bailey and Lucky departs tomorrow.

Keke didn't swim but she was excited to see the others do so.

An interesting thing that Lucky does when wet is jump and twirl mid air. I wish I had caught it.

Tomorrow we arre going to try to get the older dogs in if the weather cooperates. We did try to get Ozzie in but he was not interested. It wasn't that warm today and we only had a small window as I have been dematting a dog each day.

Ms apricot Ellie was here having a blast and you will see some of it in the gallery.

Dogs surely enjoy the lazing outside. You can see them lazing in the gallery.

Remy, Silver Ellie, Winston all departed. So fun to see the dogs after a huge break. We are so lucky to see them.

2 Blog Day

It was a wonderful day outside. We had sun but not too much heat so Nathan swam, I didn't. Tomorrow I will fit sometime in. I promised Bailey's mom she would get a swim in so we will try.

Here is the gallery.

We have 3 pups with us having a lot of fun. We also have a 10 year old Rue (departing tonight) who has been splendid. Of course we have Remy, Ozzie and Cali and Fenton.

The dogs played games today. It was a full day of activity and now they rest watching tv.

Queen

Queen Mabel saw a pile of towels on our kitchen table and proceeded to climb up and sit. Oh, you made a bed for me? I said quick Dennis take a photo.

Here is the gallery.

I told Nathan to comb out Spirit and here she remains, I guess I need to do that too after the blog. LOL

Ozzie had a brush out and he just laid there. Wow...

Ellie arrived and has been playing a ton with everyone. Bailey a Misty pup arrived and has been having a blast and so remembers Mom. Tomorrow Lucky and Keke comes so I am sure Bailey will be thrilled. Callie and Fenton arrive - been forever. Rue arrives. Archie and Coco depart.

It is nice to see the play and people going away. I will tell you it does my heart good to see the dogs enjoying.

It was a nice sunny day but not a hot one. The dogs were in heaven after the heat!

Hot and Peek-a-Boo Sun

Phoenix is going home shortly. So trying to keep him looking groomed. Ask me how that is going but I will sprice him up yet again before the parents arrive.

Here is the gallery.

The dogs are having so much fun. Ms. Coci arrived today and its been a long time. She has been having a great reunion time. Tomorrow Ellie and Bailey come.

It's going to be a truly fun weekend!

Pups and Adults

Phoenix, Coco and Lucky are here and Coco and Lucky will depart tonight. Puppy fun is amazing to us and to the adults here. Ripley is here for the day. Mr. Ozzie dropped in for some days. So long since we have seen him and a joy!

Archie totally believes he is the man of the hour with the gals. It's a true riot. He makes me laugh and laugh.

Mabel is an agile fun ball of I am here - let's go, let's play - amazing how much energy and then she crashes.

Mr Ripley walked on the stairs of the pool. I went oh will he swim? Nah cooling off those feet. It was a hot one today that started with rain and ended with much sun.

Here is the gallery.

What can I say about Remy? He is such a laidback older guy whio so loves snuggling with Roxie and she enjoys it too. He is always investigating and exploring. It's a pleasure having him here.

Tomorrow 2 Cocos are coming. :-)

There's a few videos I finally got up - 1 from yesterday and 1 of Tchibo playing. See them here.

Smile

Sometime you are just having way too much fun. They each pose for the camera in different ways.

Here is the gallery.

It's a mighty hot one and it remains hot tonight. Glad for air as then you can sleep especially when you have dogs laying all over you.

Dogs didn't want to stay out long.In out in out was an all day thing but that's okay.

It's tv time as I type. Dennis wants my office as its his day off today - Nathan's tomorrow. Dednnis is playing VR in here.

All I can say is puppies bring life to the party!
