Snooze-Play-Snooze-Etc.

Hello there good furry and fur-less readers!






Fur kids : Wally and Brandi (with tongue sticking out)

We've been really busy lately - with the above mentioned. Yes, it's simply much too hot in our neck of the woods ... actually to be specific, it's been down right humid. So much so we - including the Fur Kids (this is a FIRST) have been imploring the Chief for showers! Woo0 ....






The thing about the heat is that it simply sucks the energy out of any canine (or human)! It's only natural that our play sessions these days are much shorten while our snooze hours extended.



The Chief's been real busy too lately - mending fences. Literally. She and another Dog Woods Staff been poring over certain sections of the fences trying their best to patch up holes. The Chief describes, "... it's rather like 'patch work sewing' but with wire mesh ... "


The reason for our Chief's recent fencing concern is that a couple of our Fur Kids are escape-artists-extraordinaire. Young (and rather unruly) Brandi and TUbby, have successfully been finding weaknesses in both (yes we have TWO!) inner and outer fences.


Just yesterday Brandi and Tubby, inspite of their stubby little legs were seen chasing some poor fella. We don't know which human was more stressed, the poor fella that was being pursued, or the Chief!


Good thing he could run - way lot faster than they could! Although the chase - from the Chief's point of view, was not so much a malicious 'Got-to-get-a-taste-of-your-flesh' kind of chase more of the "Boy! this is fun! The-territorial- I'll-chase-you-right-out-of-my-woods!" either that or, "When-I- run -out- of- steam!" - which for once, the Chief was thankful it was hot & humid and our Fur kids ran out of steam soon (-er) enough ...


Irregardless of what the puppers' motivation for a chase, the Chief is not at all keen for another incident like that to happen again! We don't think we'd see the poor fella walking by our neck of the woods for a while either ....

Anywoos, we've got whiff that the fencing is to be replaced. 'About time too ...!' mutters the rather stressed out Chief. Apparently getting people to come and do the fencing has not been easy either ... it's either the reputable ones are having trouble retaining their staff (because business have been bad) or simply preoccupied with minimal staff in their present project ...


We leave you with another video - this be one of the older videos - judging from how small the pups were! We simply got to get the Chief to take more recent videos of our cute furry selves.

  4. Oh yeah, the humidity. Momma uses me to see how hot it is. Sometimes she is fooled into thinking it isn't too bad, but if I am panting she knows there is too much humidity and as soon as she moves she will sweat like a pig. Ha!

    Fence mending sounds very tiring.

  6. Adorable! Sissy often sticks her head, front shoulders and sometimes if I'm not paying attention ALL of her, in the shower. She likes it - but not the ocean.

  7. good job protecting your woods - but you have to do it from inside your fence - crossing the fence is a no no

  11. That was a cute story about the little escape artists. I hope your fence gets mended soon so the two little ones don't get into any more trouble any time soon.

  12. We so agree, when it is hot and humid, the best thing to do is nap. We hope you get the fence fixed, no more escapes!!!
