July 29: Waggin' Wednesday

First of all, happy belated birthday to Gus! The American cocker spaniel (pictured left with Pepe) turned one last week.

As you can see from today's class photo, we're having another busy Wednesday. The fur's-a-flyin' in the Spaw in the back room, too.

* Right now we have the dogs divided into two rooms, for maximum playtime potential. Hanging out with Emma (miniature dachshund) in the small room are Dawson (chi), Muggles and Zipper (both Maltese pups), Mika (Maltese), Mico (shih tzu) and Umber (chi). They've been chasing each other through the blue tunnel and wrestling on the dog beds. Emma has a delicate back so she's not running around, but enjoys the company.

* Earlier, we had most of the dogs in the one big room, and Daisy (shih tzu) was so cute, wrestling with Muggles and Zipper. She's in the Spaw right now, getting her summer hair cut.

* Pictured left: Ozzy wrestling Gus. Ozzy's also been playing with his girlfriends, Molly and Dawson.

* In the big room, there's Jasper, Casper, Spike, LG, Scooby, Leroy, Gus, Maggie, Tofu and Pepe all doing loop-de-loops around each other. They've had some good matches of tug-of-war with the rope toy, and been chasing after the ball and zooming around on the ramps (one of their favourite chase games).

* Tuka (American Eskimo) has left already, but he likes to take his perch on the bench to watch all the energetic dogs run around at his feet. His mom says he's a little devil at home, but we just don't see it?! LOL.

* Pictured left: LG hangs loose on the pink chair.

* Jones (Bischon) and Danger (Maltese), the two little white dogs, have been inseparable again today. Danger loooooves her. He looked a little sad when we pulled her away to get her hair cut in the Spaw. She sure looks and smells good. ;-) These two have also been hanging out with Bella (Maltese) and Bella (chi). Yes, two Bellas!

* Spike (shih tzu - not Yorkie Spike) and Diamond (Papillon) are chilling out on the dog beds. Buttons is relaxing, too, after her delicious lunch.
