THE FIRST NIGHT'S FIRE

Image
It was cold outside and windy all day and Mum waited fr Dad to come home to put the fire on for the first time. We all waited around the fire while the chilly room heated up. Then Dad gave us chewing bones in the kitchen. And we  chewed them around the fire in the kitchen too. Ciao for now my friends...  

THE BROWN , BROWN GRASS OF HOME

Image
It is so very dry outside that the grass is turning brown and the dust seems to be multiplying. Mum says it is easier to see the poop on the ground but I think she would rather have green grass. There are still a few plants around for us to enjoy but I think soon they will be gone too. Dusty is happy  these  days and getting more and more freedom in our pack. We are resigned to not having the pool these days but Mum tries to keep us entertained. Dusty finds new and adventurous ways to find herself in trouble. Mum says when her brain matures, she will think more wisely. Ciao for now my friends...  

THE WINDY CHILL

Image
It is so very windy outside today.  The clouds seem to be chasing the sun. It was a good day to snuggle down together and just relax. Of course, Dusty had other ideas. She chatted with Carnanby about the state of bananas these days. And Mia  chatted with Robyn. Then Auntie Julie and little Margot  surprised us with a visit. Everyone gathered around the pool but alas, we must wait a few seasons. Dusty had to stay in her pen because she and Margot play too rough and she has  shows very soon. But she and Margot chatted through the pen. Margot made herself at home with a chewing bone. And snuggled up to Izzy. Of Course, Auntie had little nuggets of food for treats and we love her for that. Ciao for now my friends...

LAZY MORNINGS

Image
Lazy mornings are the best and Mum says this is the last of the warm days for a while so we are taking full advantage of these days. The trees are starting to change their colours even as the leaves collect on the garden floor. Mia really knows how to relax under the warmth of the sun. Izzy blends into the landscape. Everyone is happy and sad that there is no rain. The grass is very sad indeed. Little Dusty needed some jabs at the doctor's place so she happily went into the car. Then realized where she was going. She was a perfect little angel at the doctor's and everyone loved and fussed over her. It's nice to have such lazy days. Ciao for now my friends...  

CAN'T GO BACK

Image
It does not feel like Fall again and we asked Mum if she could uncover the pool and put the steps back in but she said "no". So we relaxed in the sun because we could not go back to summer. We played inside a bit too. And before long, it was time to snuggle together again. We love  the snuggle time when it gets dark early. ut But Mum loves it more. Ciao for now my friends...  

THE NEW SEASON'S DAYS

Image
Dusty was still a tiny puppy when Fall happened last year. She missed some of the best parts but Carnaby- ever so helpful, clued her in on the glories of bananas . Now that the summer fruits are gone. I  got a special chewing bone from Mum and everyone came to ask if they could have some too.  Dusty does not remember the brilliance of the autumn sun. She is learning about the deep snuggles in the longer colder nights. She has great teachers. We do not the dark cold mornings. It signals a time of rest and calm. I like the fact that every season brings a new time to gather ourselves. Ciao for now my friends...
