Foolin' Around

The dogs were in a great mood today. They were silly, happy, and being big goofballs. Tchotches the chihuahua came in wearing a great dress that make everyone smile. She strutted it too. Allie started playing peek a boo over the gate by covering her eyes with her paws. It was super cute and when we laughed she did it again. Lincoln is being naughty and letting everyone into the kennel room to cause trouble. He hits the latch and then it's the great escape. They don't get very far though and then the door gets locked so the fun was over. Murphy the Scottie and Arnie the Schnauzer went mach speed in giant circles chasing each other. Jack the goodle was doing his best frog imitation by laying with his back legs spread out. Bailey and Jack the brittanys started a torid love affair that was all the gossip. Poodle Power Activate! Muffin, Shana, & Tiger were constantly on the go. Indy the Greyhound arrived for boarding since Mom is going to the Indy 500. He was so excited to get to do agility dayschool. Pal & Chloe were practicing their wrestling moves. Pal told us that his mom is coming back from a 6 month trip to London soon and he can't wait to get back to agility trials. Even Moppet was in a great mood and played with Baxter the Bichon. Scout the chessie pup only stopped his whirlwind play session with Coco the Cairn to try to eat my camera...lol! Boston sang to us his favorite song: woo woo, woo & woo.

Mollie the sweetest cocker in the world helped Taylor the new aussie play on his first day. It was great to see Max & Spicoli were back now that Spicoli has recovered from IBS. The other shihtzus formed a gang today to see who could give the most kisses. Out of Tribbles, Tobie & Bailey, Tribbles won. However, today's sweetness award goes to Addie the Italian Greyhound. In the big dog room, the labs were forming their own football teams. It was the chocolates against the black labs. The chocolates were represented by Java, Bailey, Keegan, Barkley, Mia, Gabby, & Sophie. The black lab team consisted of Shadow & Shadow, Okie, Kekoa, Shilo, & Brisbane. The goal was to steal all the balls from the other team. The basset hounds were the referees: Bailey, Tiger & Sebastian. The aussies, Gypsy, Lucy, Leila, Roxy, Lilly & Skye were in full force today and broke up the game before a true winner could be decided. The labs did not get official clearance from them to hold the game. Kihei the Samoyed and Smokey the wheaton were the coaches for each team and they both felt their teams deserved the trophy. Back in the small dog room, the Jack Russells formed their own special forces team to fend off the gardners outside the window. Sophie, Jeter, & Mollie all gave those gardners a piece of their mind.

In the office, we prepared for the 40 dogs that will be dropped off for the upcoming holiday weekend. That doesn't count all the daycare dogs that come in tomorrow for play so that their parents can party this weekend. We will have 16 staff members on hand tomorrow so we plan to have tons of fun. Kyle was busy getting all the play equipment power washed and the air conditioners serviced for the summer. Chris was busy ordering more daycare toys and cool stuff for the summer like giant ice cube makers for the dogs. Emma the rescue golden retriever came in for her interview today and was very excited to get started. She was one of 20 new client interviews scheduled this week. Agility class was super fun this week. Flora, Mia, Rudy, Molly, Tahiti, Leila, Enzo, Corby, Java & Kopy went over the aframe for the first time. Corby even created his own course called Corby's course which was a hit all week long in classes. We have over 75 weekly agility students now. That's amazing. Dakota's dad remembered all the courses this week! Smudge & Guiness finally nailed their weaves. Piper & Roxy showed off their amazing rear crosses. I love being an agility teacher!
