Just one Hummingbird feeder at our friends home.  Counting the numer of Hummingbirds at her feeders at just this one time was amazing.  I believe they numbered about 30 plus.  It was amazing to see!!

Maggie in front and Lincoln in back.  Beautiful Tibetan Mastiffs.  They help keep her safe and the coyotes and bears away.  They have blown their winter coats so look much smaller.

Willie  is also very handsome especially with his full winter coat.  He also has blown coat and has a lot less hair than usual.  He is younger than Maggie or Lincoln.

During the monsoon like rains, ginormous thunder and lightning storm Lucas, Chica - with feet in the air and Rosie rested.  We went to the cabin for som sun but only had a couple of days.  The rest of the time was stormy.  Have never seen it like that.

We had our foster Ciera with us.  As you can see we had 5 crates. Sasha stayed home with GG. Ciera spilled some of her food and Miss Chica was hot on the trail to clean it up.  Could that be why she seems to be losing a bit of her girlish figure??

There she goes.. pushing her way between the wood stove to get to the kibble. 

She has a very good nose and truth be known all her work was only for 1 little puppy kibble piece.

Lucas giving advice to little June.  She is very sweet and hopefully some wonderful family will adopt her.  She is doing well with house training,. walking on leash, and crate training. She sleeps thru the night and only cries if she has to go outside.

June playing with Sasha.  Sasha is careful when she is up moving around that she doesn't step on the little girl. 

June playing with Chica.  Chica is alpha and the surprising thing is how she plays with June and accepts her.  So fun to watch!

Now for Ernie -  we saw the vet yesterday and he is doing great! BUT I was surprised when the vet said no off leash yet for another month.  She doesn't want to take a chance of any "backsliding" with his recovery.  HE CAN go for walks up to 3 hours a day now.  I am thinking--- how will that work with the other 4 and the foster/s.  THEN on our walk this AM all was going great UNTIL we met another dog who started growling and lunging... Not good Ernie responded by jumping and getting in a twirl.. I didn't do a good job on that one. 

Hope all are having a good day and thank for stopping by to visit and say hi. 

Mom

Hadley and Ciera

Hi everybuddy,  We were gone again and missed visiting all of you.  Some good news!!!! Hadley was adopted and now lives with a retired couple who likes to go for walks a couple of times a day. We are missing her but VERY happy she is in a home with people who love her.

Another pic of Hadley resting with one of her toys.  Think she is almost asleep in this pic.

Sweet Ciera was adopted yesterday!! To a wonderful family who lives about 2 1/2 hours from us.  It was love at 1st sight for all of them.  Ciera now has a 6 year old brother named Strawberry (because of his color).  He is called Berry for short.  The handsome guy holding Ciera is our grand biped K. 

Ciera in close up.  What a sweet and happy girl.  She is about 5 months old and her tail never stops wagging.  Missing her and Hadley BUT so glad they are in good homes.  Now for the next foster.  It will be interesting to see who the next one will be. 

Couldn't resist including a short video of K taking Ciera for a ride in the yard cart.  Ciera's new family said the video clip was what sealed it for them...

Ciera's new family also saw this video clip of Hadley and Ciera playing and IF Hadley hadn't already been adopted, they would have liked to adopt her too!! How awesome is that?

Hope you enjoy the clips.  Good to be back.  Hey Ernie,  would you like to add something???

I sure would.  Thanks M.   It seems quiet here with only the 5 of us dogs right now.  I have a vet appt this coming Wed.  I think I AM OK now.  In fact, I am feeling so much stronger and ready to go.  Getting very tired of this jail time.  Well, not really jail but having to be quiet, no running, jumping, etc.  I am ready for freedom.  Will see what dr vet says. 

Congratulations to Hadley and Ciera!!!

Beautiful Day for Boat Ride & Ernie update



It was a beautiful sunny day.  Mom and the grand bipeds and Aunt D took a ride on the Water  Taxi to downtown.  Guess who all had to stay home,,, That's right us 4 legged furkids.  Some excuse about us not being able to go on the boat or in the Acquarium.  Lame huh???? 

Well, I don't see me in this pic either. Hadley was making up to K one of the grand bipeds.  Where was I??? Still stuck in ex-pen being quiet.

Fuzzy huh?  At least She took a pic of me and my bff Sasha.  I am either telling her secrets or maybe whispering sweet nuthins in her ear.....

Chica was sitting in the other K's booster seat until M actually snapped the picture.  Maybe she didn't want to be seen "sitting down on the job of watching over us"?

Hadley and Rosie snuggling in M's lap. 

They didn't break the record of how many pups can get in M's lap.  But they got 4. Rosie, Chica, Hadley, and Lucas.

Waiting for the Water Taxi to take us downtown. The Grand bipeds skipping rocks and trying to out throw each other.  They sure have grown.  A lot of fun was had.

M tried to get creative.  Took picture peeking thru the pilings of the Water Taxi coming to get them. She said it actually looked way cooler in real life....

Brand new Ferris Wheel on the Waterfront.  At night is is all lit up with LED lights and one of the "buckets" is black and has "glass" in the floor so the people riding in it can also look down below them.   Probably won't take us 4 legger furkids on that either.  Not sure I would want to...

Not sure what's up with Her but she got a 2nd pic in this time too.  She had better start paying closer attention to what she's doing or I may have to find a new assistant.  Just kidding.. she works cheap so think I will keep her...BOL

M took lots of pics at the Aquarium. Some of the "critters" are very colorful.

Not sure what kind of fish this is but it is flat on the bottom.  It is a pretty yellow.

This waterfall was seen on the way out.  M says the pic doesn't do it justice.  
Oh yes, I went to the vet last week and I am doing well.  I think only one more checkup at the end of July.  Especially if I behave my self and don't do twirls etc.  But I am a twirling kind of guy.  That is my happy dance. They say I have been trying to twirl a bit too much.  I do get to go on longer walks now but no stairs, switchbacks and other fun like that. Happy 4th to you all!!
