Home with the Cows

Last weekend we (dogs and I) ended up in Blanding to help dad brand calf's. Of course I didn't let the dogs anywhere near the calf's. Eddie would have had a barking fest and lost his voice. They stayed home with Smokey and slept while everyone was gone. Ella is in heat and Eddie's hormones kicked in. My poor family got to experience the wonderful joy of watching a male dog mount a female dog. Yes, my family got to learn about the birds & the bees in regards to dog.(sorry family) This wasn't a good idea either because Eddie shouldn't have done that. So for the next few days we had to really watch Eddie and Ella and I had to keep them separated. Once I realize the situation I asked Tami to watch Eddie this week, so he got to spend the week with Smokey and they played hard everyday. When I pick Eddie up yesterday, Smokey wanted to come. I think he will be kinda sad today at loosing his playtime buddy.

I had a great time with the family and enjoyed every minute with them, after branding we took out the 4-wheelers and played the afternoon away. It was fun!

Eddie's first Hair Cut

Two weeks ago I decided that I was tired of Eddie bringing in all sorts of sticks and stuff that attached to his hair. Yep Eddie got his first hair cut. The groomers said he did a really good job and sat still except when it came to cutting the hair around his eyes. He is all shaved except for the hair on the top of his head. Now he looks like a punk rocker with his new spiky doo. Ella got a hair cut too and she looked so cut with her hair up in bows. See the before and after pictures. As always Ella was a perfect princess for the groomers and soon Eddie will be the perfect prince (maybe).

Sugar and Puppies

The other day my roommate called to tell me that Eddie had gotten into the chocolate. Yep he really did. We (the roommates) leave all sorts of goodies on the coffee table. Well over the last 2 weeks Eddie has learned how to jump up on the couch and since he has discovered his jumping legs he now jumps all over the place including jumping onto the coffee table. Yep that's how he did it, he ate a chocolate sucker and a half of a flake candy bar. When I got home from work he was a spaztic puppy. He was running all over the place full speed ahead, he jumped from the floor on to the top of the couch in like a sec- it was all that sugar. Thank goodness he wasn't really sick and I didn't have to take to the vet. Guess who slept through all this sugar fest- Ella

Puppies, Bloomers and Braziers

Yes, Eddie has decided that he now likes to chew on Bloomers and Braziers aka bras. Today I found one of my roommates braziers on my floor next to a pair of socks, so now he has new fetish. I never had any of this with Ella so this is a whole new experience for me on keeping everything off the floor and the doors closed-its like having a kid in this house-agggggggggg. Even though he does all these funny things we love him very much.
