Comings and Goings

Here is the gallery.

Dogs come. Dogs go in and out all day. 

I am selling the last 2 things on Marketplace and I so hope it is over tonight. I am exhausted. It is my day off and I am learning if I do not go out I get no break. I did walk Stormy around the block. She was so excited at 1st. Midstream she said are you kidding and the tail was wagging when she saw the house. Doesn't that sound like humans when they start an exercise program? Tomorrow we will do it again and see how excited or not she is. 

Nathan was supposed to go to a club meeting tomorrow but the club owner's mom died today. What is going on in 2024? 25% tariffs from dump trump for Canadians? Going to be an interesting 2025. 

I didn't groom today except Yoshi. I had her on my lap and felt a felted mat and went can't have that so I combed her out. No one doing the laundry either. There is always tomorrow. Yoshi gets mats from havanese mouths. What is that about? When they play they sometimes use their mouths to get an advantage but it creates felts. Yoshi wanted me to finish as she just wanted a treat. Treat motivated dogs do that. 

If a dog can have chicken, I find the Costco whole cooked chickens they eat as if its the best thing ever. For those with only 1 or 2 dogs, you can freeze some after it cools down. We go through it too fast to do that. Plus I like it too.

Dennis informs me that we are doing games night with the dogs. I laugh. Usually he does them but he has some ideas that he needs help with. I am laughing. Got to see what that is about.

Has Stormy's thyroid been checked since she's become overweight ?? I'm surprised that any of yours dogs would be overweight.

Yes - she is fine. She just spent time stealing food at meal time and too good at game playing where she wins the vast majority of the treats. We are feeding her alone now much to her irritation. I think Dennis was doling out too many treats to her with his games.
