Busy Saturday

I had some plans this past weekend that led to me asking if the Brindle could spend the day with Uncle Jerry. Of course he could and did but let me tell you that it's pretty hard to leave that sad face.

I wasn't really worried because I knew that between the kittens and the chickens there would be lots to keep him busy. It turns out that kitten Bella has no interest but the adventurous kitten Slick might turn out to be a playmate. Probably as long as he's got Jerry to back him up.

The chickens can't even be bothered with Max any more, they just stand there and stare at him.

And what was I doing? Yarn shopping at the source...

Boxer Acclimatization

Today I'm very pleased to share some Boxers who usually show up on their own blog titled Lucy, Duke & Their Humans, too. The whole family recently made a move to much further south in the country.

Here's what their human had to say.

Thought everyone might like to see how my boxer kids are adapting to their new life in Florida....

We've been in Florida almost a month,  while just about everything else about our lives has changed, my boxer kids haven't changed much....  Lucy still thinks that it's her job to sit on and stand over her brother!

Lucy seems to have calmed down in a lot of ways, but she's still my very silly girl!  There's never a dull moment with Lucy around and she's always making me laugh!  You just never know what that pup is going to do!

This big white chair has been Lucy's favorite chair for ages, and Duke has never really attempted to take over the chair, until now!  He's finally realized that he's the man of the house right now, and he rules!  I can assure you that Lucy is none too happy about losing her "tv chair".

One positive thing about the Florida heat, it does seem to wear the kids out!  By the time we head to bed at night, both boxers are more than ready to go to sleep, and they're never too tired to snuggle with each other!  It's great to know that Lucy isn't holding a grudge over losing her favorite chair!

A Brindle Pupdate

We finally have some summer weather in Belgium and the Brindle has been out taking advantage. He started off by tossing his moose out on the patio to get some air.

While he chose his optimum location in order to absorb some Vitamin D.

Monday was a holiday here, compensation for Belgian National Day that had fallen on Saturday. No work for me but also not much was going to be open around here. With the Brindle's approval Uncle Mark and I headed into France for some shopping while he spent some quality time with Uncle Jerry. We took a photo to let the Brindle know we were still thinking dogs...

On our return Uncle Mark did a patience test, which the Brindle passed.

Of course with all the entertaining he was doing the boy needed a nap with his special friend, the monkey that lives at his uncles' house.
