Rufus

This weekend, I got to meet Rufus.  My sister recently adopted Rufus from the Swift Current SPCA.  

Seriously, how could you resist this face?

One of my favourite things about him was the bits of white on the tips of his ears, and each of his feet.  It looks like he stepped in some paint, and it hasn't quite washed out yet.

He is goofy, and silly, and sweet.  He got along well with all of the big dogs, and of course every person that he met.  He especially loved getting spoiled with treats, as I tried to get him to pose for me.  Can you tell?

Didn't get many outdoor shots of him, as it was cold, but you'll be seeing more of Rufus here, as he celebrates and enjoys his new life with his new furever family:)

Have a great day!

The "B" Word

Yep, you got it - The dreaded B-A-T-H . . . .


This is my dog, Duke.  Like a typical retriever, he LOVES the water.  That is - he likes to swim, and he just plain LOVES to be wet.  If he can lay in water (a lake, puddle, river, mud, snow - whatever, as long as it is wet), he is heaven.

However, this does not transfer over to the bath tub. 

This face says it all . . . .

He wasn't sure if he should laugh or cry.

So just settled on sulking.

Until the promise of getting out and getting a treat for being such a "patient" participant.

Lewis

Despite it being very, very cold out there, I managed in a "mini session" with Lewis.  Lewis is an 8 year old cockapoo - but don't tell him that!  He's pretty convinced that he is big and just as tough as the next guy. 

We kept our outing pretty short, as he was less than impressed with the cold.

But his ears did perk up whenever I would mention a "treat." 

And what better way to stay warm than a good case of the zoomies,

 

Or a few more treats. 

Despite our attempts, it obviously didn't take long for his feet to get cold, so we called it quits for the day. 

Lewis will have another session this spring or summer, sporting his summer hair cut and hopefully a much more enjoyable, warm day.

I hope you're all staying warm!
