What with the changes in my life I haven't posted here in a bit...sorry for that...the girls are doing great and went in for their annual visit with the vet yesterday.
Callie checked in at 54.7 pounds and Paws at 55.1 pounds. They got to experience a bear in the evening and were very excited about that. It was not a close encounter but that is ok with us. Will take updated photos today and post later on.

Happy New Years from ours to yours. Hope it was a safe and exciting one for everyone. For us it was very quiet. The big excitement was the pups barking at something very early. We were all asleep before the New Years. It is hard to believe the pups are one year old or there abouts. From the vets exam and others clues we guess their birthday is around Christmas sometime. They continue to do well and try and train us daily. They still are trying to sort out who is the boss between them. Perhaps they never will. The New Year came in cloudy and gloomy...so no new pictures yet but hopefully soon.....Have a safe and healthy year.

No photos today..perhaps weather will allow tomorrow.. The girl are still trying to work out the alpha thing between them ..neither one wants to give it up...they go at it ..nothing terrible...then give it up and go play for a while...then back at it again..usually the tussles take place during the walks...It is really interesting to watch..

Callie and Misty in a mellow moment..when I went to get the camera, Callie actually had her head on top of Misty and they were both sleeping..of course they moved before I got back..

The girls took us bike riding today in Apgar and they loved it. They wanted to run the whole time, but after a mile or so they slowed down a bit until they got their second wind. We will have to do that again. Great exercise for them and us.
What a wonderful fall day.

Another day here in paradise..the puppies had a good walk and ride yesterday and are still sleeping in....will have to wake them to go out...Paws got to try the bark collar inside last night. Typically when she has a leather chewy she will growl all the time...so she started it up again last night and I put the collar on her. She did her growl and it got her. She couldnt figure out what was going on and decided it was the chewy that caused it so put it down....I tried to explain but not sure she understood....Have a great day....

Good day....I can not believe it has been this long since I have posted here..too much stuff to do and not enough hours in the day to do them..but suppose that is the story of a lot of folks....bottom line is I havent posted....I will try and be better..


Enjoy these photos,
This is the current Queen of the ranch..she keeps the girls in line..
















The girls acting like they are behaving.



The girls have gotten very strong..will sure be glad when they get past the chewing stage...Had to get bark collars for them because one of our neighbors reported them as barking all the time..They rarely bark when we are around and then usually because something or someone is around..These are the same wonderful neighbors who complained because our waterfall made too much noise.. so much for their credability and being good neighbors... Have a great day....

Today was a day of firsts.. It was the first time the puppies got to ride in a kayak.. and I had a shoe on for the first time in four weeks..

Paws went first and did absolutely great..

Then it was Callies turn.. she was a bit skiddish at first but settled in quite nicely.

We did take out both puppies with both of us at the same time and they were both great .. unfortunately no one was around to take pictures...



After the boat ride they had some fun doing a bit of swimming..

Wow... time flies and stuff happens... I have been away way too long.... The puppies are growing into their own and doing well...Paws is the more laid back passive one and callie is a ball of energy and independence. They love to go for rides and long walks. They are eager to make new friends and don't really have much fear of anything.. They work hard at keeping the rabbits in the neighborhood in check and will chase them in an instant

It has been a wet and cool week..Most of the walks with the girls have been with umbrellas. The rain doesnt seem to bother them at all. They are still raring to go when we have finished our loop walk. Yesterday we took them to town with us and we walked on a big walk near the college campus in a sport complex. They slept all the way home and then was ready to go again. I wish I had that kind of energy.
