Domino loved the group he was with today! They all had so much fun together and he was always doing something he loved. He began his playtime by immediately climbing in the pool. He was the first one in there so it was nice and clean! Then he moved on to play with some toys. Domino's friend Molly grabbed a rubber bone and Domino was determined to get it from her. He chased Molly back and forth until she finally gave in and dropped it. It was then his turn to be chased with the bone! He is a very quick boy, so the others had to work really hard to catch him! Domino had 3 of his friends hot on his trail, and he was quick to avoid them, leaping all over the agility tunnel and bolting from one end of the yard to the other. Eventually his friends caught up to him and Casey was the victor and walked away with the bone in his mouth. Once Casey drooped it, it was up for grabs again and Domino waited patiently for me to throw it again. Domino and Molly grabbed it at the same time and then a tug-of-war game started out. Domino then raced around, chasing his friends. He ended up with the bone in his mouth, and carried it into the tunnel where he had a little alone time with his toy! He is such a cute guy.
Issy had a really great day today! She got to spend lots of time with Isis in the kitchen and out for her group. Issy was very adventurous while she was outside today. She first wandered around and sniffed the grass until she was satisfied with her findings. After, she said hello to Barb and Isis. Once she came full circle around the yard, I was waiting for her where I gave her lots of pets. I rubbed her ears and scratched all down her back. She was very content with her back massage. I left Issy to do some more exploring and returned to find her snooping around the agility tunnel. She had followed Isis and Leia in there, where they were playing. Issy didn't join in on their wrestling game, but she was very happy to be in their company. Towards the end of her group time, Issy made her way to the pool, where she fancied taking a quick dip. She slowly put each paw in the water. She took a few steps around, and Scout jumped in there with her. She didn't stay long and left, shaking off before she went back inside. At lunch, Issy was treated to some cuddles from Nicki and Tiff and a little biscuit.
Leia was so happy to be back at Tails & Trails! She got to spend the day with her mom and her new friends! She and Aurora shared a kennel today and throughout the day, I caught them getting lots of snuggles in while they could. During their group time, Leia reunited with Barb, Kinsey's lab puppy and these two loved each other! They wrestled all over the yard, rolling over each other in the grass. When Leia showed interest in the pool, Barb went right over to make sure Leia got in there with her. They then began splashing and wrestling around in the water- it was the cutest thing to see! Aurora of course wanted to get some play time with her little princess Leia too, so she played with Leia in the grass. Each time, Leia lay down and let her mom gentle wrestle with her. They both had so much fun. Later during their playtime, Tiffani came to visit our group and she picked up Leia and gave her lots of cuddles. Leia was very polite and gave Tiffani plenty of kisses to return the favour. Leia was happy to head inside for a little afternoon rest.
Bailey came in for another day of daycare with an abundance of energy! Right from the get go Bailey showed us that she was definitely ready to play. She joined the little dogs during her group time but was more focused on all of the toys in the yard. As soon as she outside, Bailey was racing to the far yard and already looking for a toy. She picked up a pink ball and immediately started doing laps around all of her friends. It was almost as though she was trying to show off her new prized possession. She sure did look very proud to have found it. Once she was done running, Bailey brought the ball over to me and the two of us began a game of tug-of-war. She is so strong whenever we play that I can barely hold on. The two of us went back and forth for a little while until my hand slipped. Bailey went off and started running laps of victory. While doing her laps, Bailey found an even better toy, a bone! She and her best friend Barbara tore around the yard with the bone in her mouth. They flew all over the yard and even stopped to play around in the pool for a short while.
Max and Sadie were the happiest pair to be back for another day of daycare. They joined me out in the yard for one of their outdoor play groups and decided to take it easy at first. Sadie went over to the furthest yard in order to sniff around the fence while Max greeted me with plenty of kisses. This continued for a short while until the two of them suddenly started racing around. It was almost as though they had both gotten a burst of energy at exactly the same time. Max darted towards Sadie and the two of them went flying around the yard as fast as they could. They jumped on and off of the picnic table, ran through the agility tunnel, and even rolled around on the ground while play tackling. Soon after they had slowed down, the duo was ready to cool off by the pool. Max was the first to stick his paws in and get a drink but Sadie followed close behind. Max and I hung out by the pool for a bit longer as I gave his head and ears a good rub. Then I decided to join Sadie for some play structure fun. I had her follow me in and out of the play structure and soon enough she was darting through every little circle that she could fit through. To end off their group time, Max, Sadie, and I all sat up on the picnic table and cuddled for a little bit.
Wednesdays at Tails & Trails mean some of
our favourite daycare friends are in for a day filled with fun! Finnigan, Chloe
and Oakley were part of an epic playgroup out in the yard today. Throw in Haley
the Shepherd, Stella the GSP and Charly the Golden and we have ourselves a full
on yard party! Before all the fun started in the yard, these three pals were
eager to head out on their morning trail walks. Chloe joined Scout for her trot
while Finnigan and Oakley joined forces for theirs. Once walks were over,
Finnigan and his friends were ready to get the pool party started. Finnigan really
enjoyed his time surrounded by all of his favourite ladies and he was quite the
hit at the pool! In usual Finnigan fashion, he fully submerged himself in the
pool until only his eyes were peering out over the water. Big-girl Chloe
thought that looked like fun and tried it out for herself; luckily we set up
the bigger pool just for her today! She was able to stretch out her long legs
and was splashing up quite a storm. Then they were off; Finnigan found himself
playing an epic game of tug with pal Stella while Chloe was whipping around the
yard and in and out of the agility tunnel away from Charly and Haley. I could
see her floppy tongue and big eyes peering out from the opening of the tunnel
to see if the coast was clear and then she would take off like the speed-demon she
is! Oakley was quite amused with all of the action out in the yard today. She
had her big ears and tail perked right up in excitement every time Chloe and
friends whipped by. She even went over to the opening of the tunnel where Chloe
was hanging out to investigate. But once Chloe took off, she quickly ran back
by my side where she had the front-row seat. There were definitely lots of
cuddles and head scratches today, but for the most part she was off exploring
the yard. Good friend Haley tried to intercept her and get her attention on one of her laps and Oakley
excitedly gave her a few head nudges to say hello but very politely let her
know that she was interested in the chase around the yard. She had the perfect
seat by my side and took full advantage of my attention while the others were
off, smart girl!
