Long Day for the Pups...


The Brute flaked out first...

Laila was trying hard to sleep

Bailey just wanted me to quit flashing that darn light! ha ha...

Bella was ready for a good nap too!

Hmmm... Guess who wasn't sleeping! Another five minutes and she was out like a light as well... All in all, they had a great Christmas - hope you all did too! Hugs~

Lazy Day...


After all the Christmas hype, it is nice to have a quiet day with my pups and dogs.

Good thing, cuz look what it is doing outside! Yuck!

Trying to make my sidewalk and driveway into a curling rink!


It does look kind of pretty, but sure makes it tough for teh dogs and I to walk out there!

With the Christmas Puppy my Mom sent me...

My Mother sent me a cute puppy for Christmas, so we figured that since they were not fond of the hat, we would try that. Well, they liked it much better!

The "Brute"

Laila

Madison

Bailey

Amber

Chipper's Christmas hat

Poor Chip did not run away fast enough...

But, he really did not like the hat, so we stopped.

He got lots of hugs after...

Poor old fella is 13 yrs old now and does not like to play dress-up!

Thankfully he forgives fast!

Merry Christmas Hats

Had to dress the puppies up for their Christmas photos. They were not very impressed with the Christmas hats, but then, neither were the dogs! ha Ha!

Here's "the Brute"...

Laila...

Madison...

And Bailey. Aren't they adorable??

Ha ha and here is Amber - being restrained - the others took off! lol

The Puppies early Christmas present...


I had bought the pups a motorized ball to play with for Christmas.

Couldn't wait for Christmas to give it to them, so I gave it to them Christmas eve.

What fun they had chasing it around...

Spilled their food and water chasing after it, but they loved it!

After 10 mins, I put it away and let them rest. Will bring it back another day...

Ist Trip Outdoors!

Since the weather today was mild (near freezing point) I decided to let the pups have their first taste of the big outdoors...

Taking them out two at a time, the girls were rather over whelming to them!

They were only out about 5 min each - just to give them a taste of it - will try to get them out every time it is mild enough, so they get used to the idea of using the outdoors for their toilet.

Of course, today - none of them peed outdoors, but they did lick at the snow and sniffed around like crazy!

The "mothers" all hovererd

and the pups stayed close. (That won't last long, trust me!)

Then it was the other two's turn...

Brandy tried hard to get them to run and play with her - she needs a good walk! Unfortunately, they must wait till after the pups have their first needle (my rule)

These two seemed to enjoy exploring...

Bailey even found some snow covered brown bits for me... gee thanks!

Poor Laila looked cold here so I decided it was enough for them for the day as well... Bet they sleep well tonight!
