Snow in March!

We awoke to a blanket of snow this morning. Hmmm, it's March 27! What happened to spring? Oh well, the puppies had a blast playing in the white stuff...

Rain, Rain, Go Away!

Today was a very rainy St. Patrick's Day. The puppies looked and looked for the pot of gold, but it was no where to be found!

The pups were hunting everywhere!

Teal Boy did a lot of digging...

but no gold.

Gold Boy found a lot of moss...

Three of them thought they might have seen a leprechaun in the tall grass...

Finally, wet and tired, everyone just decided to take a snooze!!

Brothers!

Hey! Can you believe how much these two boys look alike?! Well, they should. This is Hugo and Blue. Both are Chiffon puppies and are one year apart. They met at Seattle's best pick for doggie daycare, The Downtown Dog Lounge. You may have seen Blue on tv...he is our most famous puppy! He has been on King Evening News Magazine when they interviewed my kennel (you can probably still find it in their archieves) a UPS commercial, and on the Women's Channel in Adventures in Doggy Daycare! Cora, their trainer, said they had a great day together. Thanks, Elizabeth for sending me their pictures. I just love to keep in touch with my puppy families...I never know what will happen next! J~

Grooming

Coco's new glam shot.

February 20, 2008

Today is spa day! Our mobile groomer arrived and got started early. One of the great things about Australian Labradoodles is that they do not require frequent bathing. The wool or fleece does not smell like 'wet dog' after a romp in our Washington rain, more like a wet mitten. So we wait until the mud is dry, then brush. Our doodles need a good brushing once a week as they love to play outside. A pet that stays indoors and just goes out for a nice city walk might only need a brush from the skin out once a month! But today they will get a bath, clip and nail trim. All the puppies got their nails trimmed, too. It was good practice for later when they will be groomed.

Play Day

Playing in the forest was cool, but we decided to just run around in the big play area today. There is lots to do and fun toys to play with.

This is my favorite...

I like the red ball.

I can run fast!

Team work.

We have a great plan for tomorrow! See you soon.

Checking Out the Forest

There are always great things to do in the forest. We had a fun day finding new things to taste! Of course, our dinner will be much better...
