It was just one year ago that we had Angie and Sally in our pool
and here they are again!
Being water dogs, they LOVED the experience!
Angie and Sally race back to the ladder together with the toy.
Angie waits for Sally to go down the ladder first.
Angie dives in without hesitation! She decided not to wait for Sally.
Sally dives in with her “Flying Ears”.
Angie leads with the toy in her mouth. Sally is right next to her.
Angie brought the toy back to Sally on this dive.

Ida Mae went to the Veterinarian’s office last week
for her rabies vaccination and her microchip.
Dr. Cliff Heidinger checks Ida’s heart, ears, teeth, etc.
She weighs 26 pounds.
We were fooling around and turned Ida Mae into a different dog!
She has a dirty nose because she got into the mud right before we left for her appointment.
Ooh! That shot kind of pinched.
All smiles now.
Dr. Heidinger gives Ida Mae her microchip with her own personal I.D. number.
Ida Mae gets her nose up close to the microchip wand.
This instrument can “read” Ida Mae’s number.
Ida Mae is reading her paper work and looking at her rabies tag.
Just sitting and waiting patiently.
Ahhhh…we’re going home and Ida Mae is sleepy.

She had us watching and waiting until Saturday morning for puppies!
You can’t rush these things. Patience, patience, patience.
We were playing dress up while we waited for the puppies to start.
Tina and Sally are in the front row next to Sammy Sweetheart.
Angie is in the back row with Kayla.
Why do we have to wait out here?

Look very closely and try counting……..
9 puppies!
7 black puppies and 2 yellow puppies. Gracie did a great job!
