Fair at the Park

We went for our usual walk in the park today, and there was a whole lotta activity. Apparently, there was some sort of park fair going on. So, we joined in and took a jaunt around the festivities. We got some loving along with some Rita's Italian Ice - our favorite!

They had the police helicopter there and big fire trucks, etc. We even got to see the big copter take off!


This nice man stopped and asked about us. He bent down and gave us some loving.


Hangin' with the Italian Ice Man



Finally we get some! Yummm! Watermelon!!

We had a great time, and mom said we did very well.

Odds and Ends

Getting ready for a busy weekend. Just wanted to catch up on stuff we should have blogged about.


Aiden was lucky enough to find a toy at the park. We think it was a human baby's toy, but it had a squeaker in it. So, we claimed it for canine kind. (probably baby wouldn't want it back after it had been slobbered on through the park). Score for Aiden!


Abby being the good sister and cleaning out her brother's ears.


Little sumo wrestling. Hey, how did those indoor toys get out here?

Just cause we are damn cute!!




This critter keeps invading our fence space and leaving us treats:


We keep wondering who these critters are we see at the park:


Lastly, Lilly has reclaimed all territories in the house back from the puppies, even their crates:


Our birthday is coming up, wonder how we will celebrate?? Some treats and toys in our future??

It's been a year....

Liam 3/20/96-7/7/08 Miss and love you every day.

Manic Monday

We had a busy weekend, and it spilled over into our Monday.

Helped mom wrap (or was it unwrap) grandma's birthday gift.

Who started it?? Guess anything on the floor is fair game huh?

Had a lot of fun at the park! We saw a lovely collie dog who was happy to make our acquaintance. Their humans loved over us too. We also saw other life in the park. We spotted the blue heron, but mom was unable to get a picture because it flew away so quickly. We haven't been able to get a good shot at it yet.

We did see this creature too. It was hanging in our path.

Oh, and there was a black snake that mom screamed at when she saw it. Of course no picture of that either.

Tonight while out playing the cardinal came to visit.


We also got really hungry from all the hard playing.

Aiden tried a taste of Abby, but she didn't think it was a good idea. So, we went inside then for some kibble.

Yard Work Is Hard!

Mom has been working in the yard a lot this week in between the raindrops, and we have been helping.

Flowers are blossoming!




The new flower bed mom made:


In between the work, we found some time to play.

Abby ready to try her herding move on Aiden:


Taking a rest after some chasing and hide-n-seek:


Wait, what, what is this???

Little massacre occurred in the yard. Who did it?? Few toys didn't see a very good week this week!

Maybe we can get some new ones this weekend?? Huh, huh, huh???

Loving Life!

Hey everyone! We have been busy just loving life. Still working on our obedience, but finding time to just chill in the back yard.

Abby working on her walking.


Aiden happy after a nice encounter with some other dogs and humans.


Chillin' at the park. Think this day we were watching a horse.




We even saw some ducklings!! They let us get pretty close to check them out.

Our buddies the tree swallows let us get pretty close to them too!


Some down time chillin' in the back yard;


We are loving the early summer!

Alpha Dog Obedience

Sorry we haven't blogged in a while. Mom was under the weather (more like the weather got under her).

We had a training sessions last weekend with Max from Alpha Dog Obedience Training.

Alpha Dog Obedience Training

He came to help us with our walking on a leash (without pulling) and our barking problems (barking at everything!).
The session went very well. Max taught moms how to walk us and communicate what is expected of us. By the end of the session we were sitting out by the road and not barking at the cars. Our walks in the park have gone well also. No more barking at cars and bicycles, nor do we pull. We will keep on working on our lessons!!


We have also been really bonding with Lilly cat. Everyone seems to be living harmoniously finally! Lilly has come back out of her shell and been mingling with the puppies.






Maybe take some videos this weekend of our progress!!
