Puppy camouflage

It has been really hard leaving little Tilly at home while I go to work.  I know that Don is taking good care of her but I still miss her.  He brought her with him when he came to my office to pick me up.  Everyone fell in love with her.  So many people thought that she was one of Wally’s puppies because her colouring is almost identical to his.

Later in the day Tilly decided to curl up in Wally’s belly for a little snooze.   All of us were amazed at how she just seemed to disappear.   If her eyes weren’t open she just blended into all of Wally’s long golden fur……talk about camouflage….it was perfect.

Tilly meets Wally and Tango

Just a short video clip showing Tango and Wally meeting Tilly for the first time.  Tango has this habit of using her long, pointy muzzle and ‘boinking’ other dogs when she wants to play.  She almost knocks poor little Tilly right over with her first boink.

What a good puppy!

Last night everyone was just so exhausted after our long trip so we all curled up on the couch together.  I just love this picture.  It really helps to put into perspective just how small Tilly is compared to Wally.

I am thrilled to announce that little Tilly slept through the night.  She woke up once around 11:30pm and let out a big cry…..maybe a scary puppy dream or she thought she was all alone.  I stroked her a few times and she settle down and fell back asleep.  By 03:00am I was starting to worry that maybe something was wrong with her.  I didn’t want to turn on a light so I used my cordless phone with the backlit keyboard to illuminate an area above Tilly to make sure she was ok.  By 05:30am I couldn’t stand it any more …I had to get up and check on her.  Her little tail was wagging a mile a minute and I got a dozen kisses as I carried her downstairs to go potty.  Its now 0630 and she’s had 3 poops and 1 pee and all is good.

Picture perfect Family Day

Wally, Tango, Hope, Garnet & Bentley

Our family day could not have been more perfect.  Gorgeous weather, the company of good friends and lots of dogs…..what more could you ask for.  We got together with Patty, Susan and David and all our dogs to celebrate Hope’s 2nd birthday and Tango’s 6th.  The dogs had a great run all around Patty’s acreage and then we all went inside to enjoy delicious baking courtesy of Patty.

At the end, each dog got their own individual birthday cake.  Considering that we had 5 dogs together, 2 of which are intact males, the day could not have gone better.
