Lots of Activity Today

Okay, I didn't get a chance to brush out Envy AGAIN as he was playing so hard. I actually brushed him out after Paula headed out and well he doesn't look so. This was a photo of Tangles jumping OVER Envy. What do you think is going through Envy's mind?

Finn comes tomorrow and I have to get a photo of Tangles and Finn as they look so similar or my memory thinks so. Let's see if they do with a side by side photo tomorrow.

Here is a photo of Kona and Socks. Kona gets a bath and heads out with Kathy tomorrow. I will miss him in a big way. Wow... She will be delighted to see him, I am sure! He's going to sleep and sleep I bet. The dogs simply have so much fun from morning till night.

Darcy comes for a quick bath and I will be so delighted to see her. I bet you Spice will be too!

JLo will also get a bath and head out. She has had so much fun with everyone but especially Roxie. I love that she has so much fun in her as you can see here.

Doozie and Pepper were giving Zoe the eye. They rather like her.

Zoe even tries to clean Pepper as if she is the mom. It's a riot!

This is Tangles. I may have to put her hair out of her eyes so you can see them. :-)

Here are a few more photos taken.

Envy is gorgeous. So grown up now. They all look great and have so much fun together.

Envy really is gorgeous. I love his coat. And I love Tangles' hair even though it does cover her eyes, it's so cute.
Intereseting perspective seeing Kona right next to Socks and their size difference.
Great pics of my little ones too :)
Looks like it was an interesting day for all of them. Wonder what Zoe thinks when she is surrounded by all these Havs?

Socks is on the large size and Kona is on the small size. I think hes the same height as Treasure - can you believe but Treasure is heavier in bone.

Zoe is interesting. Usually schnauzers are... well schnauzers. When you read or are exposed to schnauzers what they say is usually true. What do they say? They need consistent socialization and training to prevent dominance, anxiety, and aggression from developing. Animal aggression is a common trait among Standard Schnauzers. Cats and small dogs should be kept away, as Schnauzers are prone to chase. They are best for one-pet homes, and their same-sex aggressive tendencies are high.

Well, Zoe is more like a havvie than a schnauzer any old day and would have to be or she couldn't visit. She is loving and affectionate. She doesn't chase or herd and she loves the little ones. They have socialized her well. She seems to be attracted to the little ones that have her colouring. I have to laugh as she seems to treat them like her babies. She really liked Kona and Kona really liked her. I guess there are exceptions to every breed. :-) Zoe is a total sweetheart that I forget she is a schnauzer.

Having had two Schnauzers I agree Darlah. They do like to take charge.
Kona although he does not like all the dogs he meets, he is really a love bug
especially with the females.

February 24, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterKathy & Kona

Kathy: At first he wasn't crazy about 'some' new dogs but as time went along Kona was more than fine but we have the ability to do a formal meet and greet one at a time that you don't have walking in the street.

We miss the Kona. Hope he is doing well. It's actually quieter without him. :-)
