Oh the Cold of It

Here is the gallery.

Juni is here - the one in the front who happens to be a Yoshi pup from her 1st litter. Jax is in the back. Jax departs tonight. 

It is so cold out there that Dennis uses an ice pick to pick up poop. He is so diligent about it that I wonder why you see anything when it comes spring. 

Bailey was here for a groom and is salivating about dinner. Not sure what she eats at home but she thinks steak suits her just fine. We do feed the dogs well. I guess we care more about the dogs than the money, it seems. LOL

Brodie has been doing the zoomies today - like wild and crazy zoomies. He got everyone joining in with his enthusiasm and you could tell he was proud of himself. A little cuddle, a run and the world is a great place. 

Now they eat with gusto. 

I need more socks. I walk around with barefeet and always find myself freezing but Hallie has an issue. I put socks on at night to stay warm and wake up to go to the bathroom as Hallie is eating my socks off me as I sleep. I am so tired lately that I don't even realize it till I realize and then it is too late. She does this with underwear too. It is mind boggling as no matter how much I chastise her, she does this till I am left with chunks out of my socks or no socks. I suppose I should not wear socks so I have some left and the underwear is now in a closed bedroom closet as that is ridiculous.

Just some insight into our challenges - well mine.

Dogs are having fun. Many have departed. Those that remain are having a blast.

Last of those flying out of Aruba has now made it home or to the states. Crazy world we live in - rather scary. 

We surround ourselves with dogs so it helps to make that reality fade, to a point.

Hope you are enjoying your Sunday - 1st of the year!
