YOGI AND THE PUPPIES

I’ve never had a Bishon.  I’m not sure if they’re judgy but they sure are cute. 
Yogi is loving having Sophie and Spencer there.  Non stop playtime— w a few naps in between. 
We’ve discovered that bichon puppies are investigators, explorers, excavators, curious, loving and full of fun! 
Did I mention they like to dig?  😂

Then they discovered the hose.  Oh wow did they get into that.  
Total joy!  They get a lot of baths!  🛁
They are giving Yogi a run for his money.  And he loves it. 
All clean — again.  We’ll need to send their foster mom Susan some shampoo.  She’s going to need it!  lol 
The puppies will be neutered/spayed in September and be available for adoption after that.

NEW YORK TOASTY

 Toasty loves walks. 

Toasty has become a real Brooklyn dog.  He’s beginning his second year living there. 
He’s telling his girl (my granddaughter) he wants to go on a walk. 

He has learned about the traffic and sits until it’s his turn to cross the street. 
Ready?  Let’s go!
After a walk, it was shower time!  He loved it. 
After a busy day, he’s ready to rest.  It’s been hot up there, just like in Virginia.  (Hope it cools off soon.)

And he’s done. He has steps to get on his girl’s bed.  He sometimes takes over the silk pillow. 😂 Your girl won’t mind. 😍

WELCOME SOPHIE AND SPENCER

We were asked if we could help two 3 month old bichon puppies. We had an open foster so we said yes. 
Who is who?
Their foster mom put Sophie in a green harness and Spencer is wearing a red one.  
They are both super sweet and very playful. 
They are in Yogi’s home and they play until they run out of energy.  A short rest and they’re off again to play.  

Sophie and Spencer can be adopted separately  

We adopt in Maryland and Virginia.  We do home and vet checks.  We do not adopt to first time adopters or to homes w young children

MARLOWE’S DNA

Marlowe is doing great.  Winter is insisting that he plays w her. 
She barks and say “let’s play!!”
Todd is observing but also gets into it. 
Is that a play bow? 

His foster mom did a DNA test on him. 
He is mostly Pekingese. 🐾
But what is a Mi-Ki?   Marlowe doesn’t care. He’s busy w his bone. 
He’s contemplating all the wonderful breeds he has.  It doesn’t matter.  He’s beautiful to us.

GWENNIE’S RECHECK

The ophthalmologist wanted to check Gwennie’s eyes one more time before her surgery on Friday. 
It was an extra long appointment because he wanted to be extra sure of the right plan for her. 
She was so good for her long exam.  Really!  She was amazing w all the bright lights and tests.  She just stood there like a champ!  I was very proud of her.  
This couple was their w their dog. They were enamored by Gwennie and asked to hold her while I checked out. 
She slept all the way home. It was only 30 minutes, but she was exhausted.  After her nap, she was ready to get out and chat w Ginger and Toby who live next door.  

I’ll update you after her surgery on Friday. 🙏
