Hot Dog!

telling me about her dad

Poor Xander! I don't he does well in this hot weather. Amazingly enough Trooper who is fat, old, and way furrier seems to handle this heat better than he. He has runny poops. He threw up tonight & just felt hot. So while he was laying down I got a cold wet facecloth and put it on his head, then neck & body. Later I took him out to the patio & wet his paws & legs with the hose. He is enjoying th hose. He ries to bite the water stream. The water never got real cold and & didn't spray his body has I didn't want to shock it. I remember a girlfriend telling me about how her dad killed a pig by spraying it with well water one hot day. Of course Xander really looks like he has a hangover!

The nursery





Can you spot Mom? She's a Cardinal. Must be from St. Louis.

This is the under side of our umbrella over our table on the deck.We've decided to try to not disturb her and not eat on the deck. But we walk by going to and from the car.

Poutine!



I heart Hyvee! I just found cheese curds there. I can now make poutine!!!! Heart clogging goodness. If you are ever in Canada, especially in Quebec have it. But make sure they used curds & NOT shredded cheese. It's not the same.

His very own dog park




The evening routine is come home from work & let the dogs, Xander & Trooper out of their pen (70 x 20 feet). We let them run in the park (140 x 50). How could we not want to rush home? Look at him! Such a happy, goofy boy!

Holy Shit!




This kinda blows my mind. I don't know if I would put this on my dog. But it seems like it works.
