The Golden Girls - Emmie & Maisie

Happy Opening Day!

14/02/2024

This is us! Em is such a serious girl, always looking for something, such as squirrels. Maisie is just a fun-loving goof. Patience and a sense of humor is a gift our human has! Fido and Stitch has hosted some great pawties! You need to check them out next time!!

Unlike Emmie (who took many classes by 9 mos), Maisie has been “home-schooled” until now. We are at the point where we need to work on polite greetings and distractions that they provide. So today, she went to her first class (progressive intermediate with A Dog’s Life GR). Here she is getting focused before class. She did so well with the older dogs! Hoping to head in the therapy work direction again as she appears to enjoy it already!

We couldn’t let this day go by without posting this dynamic duo who love to do everything together. Happy National Golden Retriever day to Emmie and Maisie and all their golden friends!!

I’m 9 months old today! I love to root for the Lions and am excited to do that today! I finally got snow to play in and I love it! I also survived my first heat! It wasn’t so bad. I just didn’t like not getting to go places and hang out with all my dog friends! Emmie says I still was really nice to her and was really sweet and cuddly! Here’s to another month of life and learning!!

It’s GAME DAY! My lil Lions fans are ready! Are you?! GO LIONS!

Happy 4th Birthday to Emmie! In the last year, she went from being the baby sister to the big sister. It was clear she likes being in a multi-dog household. She is a great model and playmate for Maisie! She tolerates so much! She loves the beach and swimming to fetch her jolly ball or attempts to catch seagulls. She has an obsession with squirrels watching for them all the time! She is a great dog and we are looking forward to the next year filled with good health and fun!

Happy New Year to all! We look forward to seeing what 2024 has in store!

Maisie is 8 months old! She is such a sweet adolescent right now! Loves all people and dogs. Her favorite dog is her big sister! She follows her around all the time doing whatever Emmie does! Good thing Emmie is a great model! Maisie receives so many compliments on her behavior and looks when we are out in public!

Merry Christmas Eve! Can’t believe Christmas is tomorrow! We will definitely just be dreaming of a White Christmas here in Michigan as it is in the 50s!

It’s been 24 weeks since I broke my leg. We are so glad this is in the distant past! I had no idea why I was forced to try to fit into that dumb outfit today, but look how much I have grown and changed! I have gone from a cute, little puppy to a happy, healthy adolescent!

The girls got to meet the Grinch for the first time ever! they even made a cute ornament for the tree! Always a great visit to that store!

Just a little Christmas photo shoot to get into the spirit!

03/12/2023

These are a couple of my favorite photos from the littermate reunion. (They just turned 7 months old). Maisie is the smallest of the pups at 43 pounds! You can see the size difference between her and her biggest brother! They look similar and both bleed maize and blue! Right, Finn?

28/11/2023

Seven months old! Maisie is growing up so quickly. She has done some “therapy” work, does so well with new people and loves her belly rubs! She settles right into shopping by laying on the floor patiently! But her favorite thing in life is playing with Emmie! They are best buds!

04/11/2023

Is it almost game time?! We have been waiting so long!! Go Blue!

02/11/2023

Oh Michigan! The difference a month makes. Oct 1st found us all swimming in Lake Michigan and October 31 gave us snow with quite a few inches at the lakeshore!

Merry Halloween! Maisie had no idea what that white stuff was, but she was easily distracted with these delicious treats from Have a great time tonight in the snow, West Michigan!

31/10/2023

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Can’t wait to get some treats!! I may even get to see my first snow!

Just a little Halloween Eve post! They were sitting still waiting for a delicious Halloween treat!

The Golden Girls! Happy Halloween!

Trick or Treat! The kids and dog had a great time at Corewell Health today. Delicious treats and a surplus of candy! Maisie needs a bragging moment. She is almost 6
months old and was spectacular in a brand new situation with many novel things! She greeted people without jumping. She sat and laid down for attention. She let people of all types pet her. She has so much potential! I am looking forward to seeing her mature and where that takes us. She is great with riding in the car and letting kids hug her!

We definitely need Simple Green to help clean up any messes we make!
