June 16: Lots of little white dogs

It's 11 a.m. as I start writing this, and we have 20 dogs at daycare. Of those, nine are little white dogs! That doesn't happen too often.

See if you can spot the white pups in the group photo above: there's Bella (Maltese), Marley Havanese), Jasper and Casper (both Coton du Tulear), Mika (Maltese), Danger (Maltese), Milky (Bischon/poodle), Bobo (maltipoo) and Sebastian (miniature poodle). That's Danger and Bobo cuddling up on the chair below.

* So right this moment, Yuki (Papillon) is wrestling Rico (pug-Havanese). He's also been playing a lot with Bobo (maltipoo) this morning. Pat has written down on the comment sheet that Bobo "needs a tutu for all the dancing he's been doing with Yuki!" Ozzy (Min Pin) really misses his girlfriends Molly and Dawson today, keeping himself busy by playing with Bobo.

* Rico has also been playing chase and pounce with Marley (Havanese) and Milky (Bischon/poodle). EVERYONE loves Milky - she just runs around from group to group, joining in the action. Sebastian (miniature poodle) loves her especially. They've been playing together all morning.

* Marley has been zapping around the place, up and down the benches, chasing Winston (beagle-King Charles) in hyper-fast speed. When they finally catch up to each other, Winston does this little whiney/playful cry noise, and they roll around on the dog bed. Also jumping in the dog-pile are Spike (Yorkie) and LG (Yorkie-shih tzu).

* Actually, Marley has been extremely popular this morning. The funniest thing is seeing Tonka and Linus (both miniature dachshunds) tackling Marley. They both have the same playing style... running at her and... CHARGE!! They ram into the side of her, and then they begin this mid-air wrestling game. Hilarious.

* Bella (Maltese) has had lots of energy, running around saying hi to all the dogs. She's become little buddies with Danger (also Maltese) and Mika (another Maltese). The three Maltese pups are all the same size and look very cute together.

* Check out Buttons (cockapoo) and Sebastian (miniature poodle) posing nicely in the group photo. These two have become companions, often sitting together, and sitting so calmly for the photos. So cute!

* Jasper and Casper have been entertaining us by chasing their tails! They enjoy running around, from room to room, and wrestling Rico (pug-cross) in a tag-team.

Did your dog eat lunch?

* Yuki didn't eat breakfast, but ate lots for lunch.

* Oops! I made a boo-boo today... Normally Pat does the lunches, but I (Kat) took over today and accidentally gave Bella Mika's food. Well, she looooved it. I really hope it doesn't give her an upset tummy.

* There was a bit of kibble left over of Mika's food, so I offered it to Mika, but she wasn't hungry.

* Buttons ate all of her lunch.

* Jasper and Casper ate all of their kibble.

* Tonka ate quite a lot for lunch.

* Danger wasn't hungry.

* Milky wasn't hungry.

* Bobo ate most of his kibble.

* Linus has been eating his treats.

* Ozzy wasn't very hungry today - he only ate a few pieces of kibble.

* Sebastian wasn't hungry.
