So I hear that this wonderful weather will be replaced with typical August weather again soon. That means less outside time for the gang if it's too hot & humid. So I'll just leave today's short video here to make you smile - ya can't help it π€£
So the mulberrys are starting to slow as the season is winding down. Trixie has decided her season isn't over. If they won't fall, she's gonna go after this 1 low limb & get them herself - stinker!
Ugh - the gnats are horrible here most of the time because we have a swamp behind our property line. I think Jett hates them just as much as me π
So I brought out a new ball & I honestly can't believe that Jett could get her mouth around it. Here she is introducing herself to it - she does this with every new toy or recycling I put outside LOL
So the squirrels are hard at work digging up all the black walnuts they buried last year. Apparently, they like to take them up into the mulberry tree, crack them open & eat them. The 1/2 shells end up on the ground & Trixie thinks they're new toys everyday π
Notice at the end I hold out my hand for her to drop it & she gives me her paw instead LOL
So I put a few treats in pieces of newspaper & crumpled them up good. It was a treat hunt rather than an Easter egg hunt! Jett & Lager knew just what to do since I used to do this when they were young. So they had an unfair advantage & got most of them but I think everyone had a bit of fun doin some nosework π
This is Trixie's favorite ball. Don't know why, it just is. I put it inside in a box towards the end of the Fall & just brought it back out today. It was like I brought out an old friend that she missed dearly π
New recycling to break down for the pups today.
Jett likes to yell at empty boxes because...well - they're empty but all smell like stuff for themπ€£ Lager will protect Jett sometimes when she's workin on something so I had to take a pic
Gotta love when a pibble plays appropriately with a young 22lb pup. They were playing tug of war with a rope toy. Pitties are all so scary - Faith would absolutely lick us to death π€£
Ummm...I only wish it worked like that & the box would magically become full again once you yelled at it π
Round 1: Even a senior with a bum back leg can't help herself to enjoy the snow. Poor Faith - her bad leg pops every time she takes a step but she had fun.
And Trixie is just a jack rabbit to cover any ground out there π€£
I tried several videos yesterday but was so snow blind I couldn't see the phone. Half the time, there wasn't anyone in the shot LOL
But I did get 1 of Lager 'creepin' but Jett wasn't playin that - Trix doesn't do creepin tho π
So who's pup(s) like the snow? Jett & Lager were shot out of a cannon! Trixie was confused by wearing a coat at first but got used to it. She's got such a short coat, I had to LOL
Hope everyone had a good (preferrably quiet for the pups) New Year's Eve and enjoys the day today!
Many thanks to Patty & Mark E for the gift card we received last night to start the year off right <3
We've been a bit quiet lately because we've been dealing with some issues concerning our Hailey.
But today was a really nice day...for RECYCLING! MJ is a seasoned vet when it comes to breaking down a box. He's had lots of yrs of practice. Trixie lets him do all the grunt work while she steals pieces & throws them into the air like a cat π€£
We can't forget our other primo athlete, Mia. Her specialty is the downhill backstroke. Today was a noteworthy run.
What a crew we have here! π
Jett does this all the time & it still makes me chuckle π€£
Ya gotta love Faith coming into frame just lookin at her like 'What the hell is that kid doin?!' Entertaining as always π
First off, thanks to Judy C for dropping off a donation today. Much appreciated!
And secondly, for your viewing pleasure, a taste of the typical daily shenanigans of Trixie writin' checks her little butt can't cash π
