My Dogs Are Becoming Human

Yesterday, David and I decided to give the puppies a much needed bath. The temperatures outside were in the 80's, but we knew the water would be much too cold for them. We gave them all an indoor bath/shower.

Lucy was first because she was the most unwilling of the group. Squirt was second followed by Spunky. I went into the bathroom to towel dry anyone of them that was finished. Both girls, dried and smelling clean were let out of the bathroom while Spunky enjoyed his bath. A moment after I let the girls out, Lucy somehow got back in by pushing on the door I thought I closed. She walked over to the shower door and looked back at me as if to say, " Mom will you please open the water fall room?"

I did, she looked in at Spunky and then started to leave. I was watching this happen. Squirt was by the bathroom door waiting for her to hurry out. They both walked very close together as they made their way down the hall to the media room. I sware it looked like they were talking about Spunky.

Then Lucy took a quick look back at me as I saw them go. She got very close to Squirt like she was saying to her in secret, "I'll tell you later."
Strange how they act so human.

The Tether Ball Game

On Wednesday, the puppies and I had a grand ol' time playing under the pecan tree. David went and strung up an official tether ball for them to play with. They absolutely love it as you can see.

Pebbles wants to play more. She was the chihuahua we rescued from the puppy farm.
She has finally come out of her shell and trusts us now. We call her Squirt and she seems to like that name

Time to go inside - Lucy all tired out but happy.

The same for Spunky

Pebbles aka Squirt can go another round

Spunky all tuckered out and hot - cooling off the best he knows

Fell asleep

Lucy is down for the count and Squirt is in the kitchen sleeping

Everyone of them are fast asleep right now. Probably recharging their batteries for later no doubt.

Crazy Witches Daybook

My Mood:  I'm doing better than most I guess. A least I'm not in that nasty funk I've been in since the flu. Now that was quite nasty. I wasn't cooking or cleaning much at all. Poor David had to put up with my shit for three or weeks now. I'm lucky he hasn't divorced my ass yet.

What I'm Doing :  Today I'm kicking back a little with the puppies and going to watch last night's episode of Walking Dead. Yes, I'm a walker fan from when it first started. David came on board during the second season. So of coarse he is all caught up now because AMC plays all the shows from season one to the present when a new season starts. He keeps saying "Why didn't you tell me about this?"- in a whiney voice just like he said with Being Human, Breaking Bad, Eureka, and a few more shows that are now kaput. Thank goodness he was able to catch up on a few seasons of like Breaking bad and Eureka. I can't wait til Defiance starts on April 15th. It's gonna be pretty good. So at this writing David is now a Syfy and WalkingDead fan. Jeeeze! What's next.

In between writing this out I'm throwing a cold, wet doggy ball for the puppies. Spunky loves to have us throw the ball for him otherwise he sits and wrangles it. You know - dog with a floppy, ball flapping it it from side to side like he's trying to wring it's neck and kill it. Well Spunky likes to do this then let it fly and hit me like every-single-time. Or he hits something valuable. I have taken steps to child proof this house now. I feel like I have little two year olds running around here. One is the jock that loves to play with his toys. Then there's the little shy wall flower who hides unless we're going somewhere. And last but not least there is the mommy's girl who follows me around saying "I'm bored, can I sit with you?" They are nothing but kids with speech impediments and like to wear warm fur. Oh and they like to imitate dogs.
