Ramblings-n-Writings

Spot, the GIANT puppy, always goes to the old flannel sheet first. (By the way, I honestly think Spot’s going to be as big as horse. He’s only 4 months old! What a beast!)

Then Sadie, a miniature collie mix, decides she wants the sheet. And somehow, even though she’s considerably smaller than Spot, he gives it to her. Spot’s the “baby” (a GIANT one) of the pack so maybe that has something to do with it. That’s Mandy at the bottom trying to decide if the camera was something she should howl at or not.

Isn’t Sadie precious? She’s my ever energetic baby who’s already been through a lot in her 5 months including being run over by a car.

Mandy, the beagle, is the queen of the dog bed. Being able to spend the night inside has mellowed her temperament some…which is a good thing.

Innocently sleeping… They are generally very quiet at night. I love how Spot has his paw on Sadie. Sadie was sooo excited to have a playmate when Spot arrived on the farm back in September. Oh wait, Sadie gets excited about everything…

For lack of chew toys, and not wanting a hole chewed in my walls, they have an old dustpan to chew on. I think I’ll give them some rawhides for Christmas, but for now, the dustpan will do. Plus it’s teaching them to share – something Mandy wasn’t very good at, but seems to do okay with now.

Look at that GIANT mouth! Even though Spot looks like a big dog, he still has puppy teeth, which cracks me up because he’s so big with these itty bitty tiny teeth.

And occasionally, the dustpan just isn’t as much fun and they must chew on each other. We laugh when we hear them squealing and yipping because we know they’re having fun. Having the pups in at night also helps us learn their different barks and noises so when they’re outside we know the “important” barks to respond too.

So what’s going on in your laundry room?
