Domino is certainly enjoying his stay with us. This morning he was super excited for his walk with Casey and Bella, and wasted no time bouncing out the door. He gave Bella a playful poke, then moved on to pounce on Casey. The other two weren’t really looking to play but they kindly put up with Domino’s excited antics until we made it out of the yard, and Domino went trotting off to explore the trail. When it was time for groups, he had some more friends to wrestle with and was quick to pounce on Vega. She happily tackled him to the ground and then the two went racing off together. They ended up poking around the tunnel. Vega jumped up and tried to balance on it while Domino did his best to knock her off, then he went to explore the inside of it. After they had finished with the tunnel, they wandered over to see their friend Finnigan, who was chewing on a bone. Domino tried and failed to steal the toy, and ended up just barking at Finn instead. He then trotted away to join in a wrestling match with Casey and Blue. Just before we wrapped things up and headed in, Domino stumbled across the bone that Finnigan had left behind and settled down for a good chew.

Casey had lots of fun playing with his friends today. He kicked things off with a walk alongside his buddy Domino and a new guest, Bella. When I went to get him from his kennel, he was sitting patiently on his bed with his tail wagging like crazy. He’s got lovely manners! As we were heading outside, Casey seemed eager to start sniffing and led the three of them to the trail where he immediately bounced ahead to start exploring in the grass. Next up it was time for groups. There were lots of energetic dogs for Casey to play with today, but after he bumped into Blue the chocolate Lab, they were inseparable. Blue was bouncing around and play-bowing for Casey, who pretended to be disinterested until he would finally pounce back when Blue was distracted. Every time I looked over the two of them would be wrestling or leaping around together. Occasionally Justice, Domino and Finn would try to join in, but Casey only seemed to want to play with Blue. Eventually they stopped to catch their breath. They both wandered over to the pool, which was empty since it’s a bit chilly outside, and Blue climbed right in while Casey just sniffed around it. Casey looked good and tired…he should nap well this afternoon!

Maya had a wonderful day! She started the morning off on a nice stroll with her friend Maggie the bulldog. The two of them spent lots of time exploring the outdoors and enjoying the sun. After that, it was time for groups. Maya happily trotted out the door to say hello to her friends. She was looking quite perky today. Maya bumped into Penny and the two girls gave each other a quick sniff before they wandered towards the grass yard together. There was so much for Maya to smell! Her nose was kept busy as she walked along the fence and checked things out. She also made sure to give the picnic table a thorough sniff as well. Maya’s friend Miko bounced over to see what was going on. He wanted to play with her, but Maya politely turned down his offer and headed over to visit me instead. She sat down in the grass next to me and observed the yard while I pet her. When I crouched down to get closer, Maya immediately began trying to wriggle into my lap. She’s such a sweetheart. Whenever I wasn’t holding her, she was following right on my heels, eager for more cuddles. All she wanted to do was snuggle with me!
