July 31: Introducing... Coco

Do you have a hot apartment? Is your dog burning up? Bring them to daycare... we have air con! Also, here are some tips from DogSafe to keep your dog cool this summer: http://www.dogsafecaninefirstaid.blogspot.com/

We have a new puppy here today called Coco (shih apso), pictured sitting in my camping chair. Isn't she adorable? A little ball of fur.

She just loves to play, and is fitting in really well with the littl'uns: Dawson (chi), Muggles (Maltese), Jones (Bischon), Zipper (Maltese) and Ozzy (Min Pin). These pups have been chasing each other around all morning. Heidi (shnoodle) has been in there too, mostly wrestling with her buddy Ozzy.

* Muggles has also been wrestling with Lola (cockapoo) and Zipper has been chasing Jones, Danger (Maltese) and LG around.

* Cookie and Donut (both Pomeranians) are here for their second day and are doing great, gaining confidence. They're a little tag-team and like playing with each other.

The morning walks are done, and Pat's feeding lunches right now.

* So what else is going on? Well, Buttons (cockapoo) enjoyed her walk today. Must be a sign it's not as hot as it was yesterday.

* Gus (American cocker spaniel - pictured left) has been playing tug-of-war with LG (Yorkie-cross) and little Dawson and Frankie (Boston Terrier). Spike (Yorkie) has also been chasing these guys around, and Frankie's been doing this little dance-play manoevre with Tofu.

* Tofu and Heidi (shnoodle) have been getting up on their hind legs to paw each other in the air at each other. Also in this play-pack is Bobo (maltipoo), who's been wrestling and chasing Gus lots, and Lola (cockapoo), who loves Tofu. Mico (shih tzu) really loves Lola and gave her lots of kisses. What a sweetie.
