Puppies 7 months old,


I was taking a picture of Teddy and when I put the camera down Cici was right at eye level, she had snuck up on me and evidently stuck her face in front of the camera the moment I thought I took a picture of Teddy.

Mr. Handsome
I stepped out of the back door, buckets of treats for the goats and syringes with wormer in my hand, struggling to close the door behind me and as I finally stepped down the steps almost stepped on this visitor who was draped right alongside the steps
After taking a few pictures I took a broom to get the snake to go the other way, this was one very fast snake, I think they are called "racers". This was a pretty long snake, about 3 feet, very slender and a small head that reminded me of a lizzard.
Cici with the chickens, the day I took all these pictures with the chickens it was 112 degree in the shade of my chicken coop. The puppies did pretty well, didn't seem to be overly stressed by the heat.
Teddy with his nose up to the eyes in the water and both paws in the water, never mind I had just bleached the bowl and filled it with fresh water and apple cider vinegar
Teddy, gangly teenage looks

Momma dog and daughter Cici, which one is the momma?

taking a critical look to see if it needs more cleaning
nope, all done, ear is clean
Sammie aka "Ballerina"

Ayla and Leydi, best friends, even when they are both in heat, and yes, they are synchronized, Ayla came into heat 4 weeks ago and Leydi started 8 days later
Sammie and Ayla started some wrestling and Kobi threw himself into the mix
who has the most fun with this?




Cici loves attention, here she is getting ready to beg for a belly rub
here she goes












belly up
looking for her belly rub






Last weekend I left Teddy with the chickens, then after a little while I peaked through the bedroom window to see what he was doing, I think he looks quite content
Cici, always finds something to sit up high







The white hen in front of Teddy is quite aggressive, Teddy uses a calming signal, licking his nose to signal his peaceful intentions

Nothing escapes his watchful eyes

Enya loves to squeeze herself into tight spaces, under the bed, or like here into a crate that's more the size of a 20 lbs dog. She can't really move around in it, so she goes in, lies down and then pushes herself inch by inch around.

She managed to turn all the way around,









Comments:
They are growing so fast! Just imagine five kids huddled around Cici (picture when she is upside down) and it's exactly what Indy looks like at the library. ASD's are such great dogs.
