A Couple Of Guest Selfies

 We are trying to get our fall/halloween costume pictures ready, but the weather is NOT cooperating, in the past week or so we have had over 9 inches of rain, 2 of which were from Friday to Saturday. Its quite soggy out there, though our trees are looking pretty in between raindrop times.

Benji is taking advantage of the soft earth...he dug three huge holes in the back of our yard this past week...one so big as our bathtub. No way do the peeps here want to be back there in the dark! Naught pup...he's hunting out moles or gophers, but we didn't see any ex ones. He makes way more mess than they ever do. Does anyone need holes dug for putting in fences or pipelines?? He'll gladly do it for treats, BOL!

Petcretary fills those holes up again as best she can, and then sprinkles pepper flakes or powder all over the site. Yes he stops digging *there* but then finds a new venue for another 'project'! Sheesh, he is one determined terrier. Dalton 'helps' him by digging at the edges of those holes...or starting a small one, and then Benji works it to the max! They are a team...BOL! Arghhh!

Anyways here are a couple of cuties that were at petcretary's work place, recently. She asked their names and got them...but didn't write them down, and now cannot remember them at all...oh well...

A demure and shy Collie, she has ears like Dalton, BOL! She was a rescue pup...but thrives with her family, now.

Cutie pie!! She was hard to get to sit still, she wanted to come over to kiss the photographer, LOL!!

Its always great when resident families bring in their pets. Some of these pups and once in a while a kitty,  love to socialize with other families and residents and staff. All the staff love the short breaks from the daily mundane or stressful tasks they have to do there.

The other day in the pet shop where petcretary buys our food and treats, there was a young man with a huge Shepherd dog. He allowed petcretary to pet him, and then behind them was a little puppy...she was following big dog and master like a shadow! All teeth and kisses, BOL! But she was listening to her 'dad', and it was nice to see tht furmily interact and socialize with the store staff and customers. Never too early to start that!  Of course the camera was not handy, but somehow we don't think it would have been too polite to take pictures.

Of course when *she* came home...we had to sniff her pant legs for a long time...she had betrayed us, that's for sure!! But of course we forgave her!

While we didn't get any good outside pics, here is one we had taken inside. And 'enhanced', We were not too sure about being foxes, though, BOL!!

  7. Benji, I am well impressed with your feats of excavation. And as for that framed photo - well every dog aspires to be a fox terrier, isn't that right?
    Toodle-oo!

  14. We're so bummed about more losses that moved over the Rainbow Bridge. It leaves us particularly sad.

    So you guys are now excavators as well as cutie pies? Good to know-I may need to call you next spring to help me level out a high spot in the dog run. I'll supply a critter and treats to make it fun for you. 😊

  17. Lulu: "Wow, Benji, that sounds like some pretty epic hole-digging you've got going on! I dug one a few weeks ago that Dada called 'The Grand Canyon of Oceanside'. We should get together and see how deep we can get!"
    Java Bean: "Ayyy, you two make cute foxes! And now you can tell us what the fox says, right?"

  19. I think Benji would be the perfect assistant for a mass murderer digging big holes !

  20. WOW! Talk about digging a hole! I am double DOUBLE impressed! The two of you are amazing. Of course Petcretary probably wishes you would save your skills for something else. WHEW!
