Stewie lovin' his new lion


Stewie loves the new lion stuffy that I bought....oh Tucker does too....today it was all Stewie's.




He was enjoying the multiple squeaks he could make it do, along with chewing on the lion's mane...mmmmmm tasty!


I had to post this photo of precious Stewie!  He does his "up" so cute!

Pool safe?



A couple of days ago husband and son worked to spread our pool cover over our curvy pool.  Tucker thought he could  "walk on water" while they were working!  Of course you can't walk on water Tucker though for awhile you did walk on the cover till you got to the edge of it then
                                 down 
                                             you
                                                     went!


When we brought Tucker home our pool cover was folded up for next summer and we of course familiarized him with the pool edges and the water.  He never once tried to get in.  He seemed pool safe.   He hadn't learned that the cover skims the surface of the water and beneath it is not solid ground.


He tried twice while they put it on and both times they had to teach him that no, he can't get in the pool.  Thankfully he can dog paddle.


There is a lesson here.  Have you introduced your poochie to the pool and pool cover yet?  We use to have a pool fence when we had little kids but we removed it once our son was near 7 and would not get in the pool without an adult watching .  I wish our pool was a shape that we could have a cover that you could walk on or the kind of pool safety fence that is easy to remove as needed and put back up.  Ours was 6 foot high rod iron fencing that made you feel like you were an outsider looking into a apartment pool.  


So if you haven't double checked to see how your poochie is around a pool, maybe remind them of where the steps are if by chance they fall in.  Have a practice drill for their safety and your peace of mind.

Agadorable

I haven't mentioned Agador, our house guest, or as I say ....my Grandkitty.  So I thought I would share some closeups of him and his unusual coat.



He's on the desk in our bedroom keeping eyes on the poochies (Tucker mainly) as well as our two Siamesers who are lurking around these days and being rude to our house guest.  



Here you can see his rather unusual coat with all it's rumply soft waves.  You can see where he doesn't have fur below his ears and on his belly.  






He also has some bare areas between his front legs.  We tease him and say he has saggy old man boobs.  I don't think he appreciates this comment.



Devon Rex's also don't have kitty whiskers like you would expect.  They are short and stubby.


He's made himself quite at home here....snuggled in our bed even after we got up.  He's going to milk those warm sheets for as long as he can...

Purple Ball





Tucker loves my exercise ball.  LOVES IT!  He is obsessed with it!


He becomes a circus dog standing on his back legs and rolling the ball in front of himself..





He barks up a storm at it....


He rests with it.....


I love my purple ball.....


I don't seem to be able to exercise with the ball anymore.
