What a difference the past 11 days have shown us.  Marley came to visit her ‘Surrogate Family’, while Mom and Dad had a vacation. We (Henry & Aoife and I) were so happy to have Miss M. in our home while we tried to keep up with information and the ever-changing world situation.  Marley’s visit at the start of the week, included lots of play-time and walks with her buddies.  Marley does have a full social network.  There were many off-leash parks visited with Huxley, daily cuddles and dog toy tug-o-war games with Aoife and then there was bed sharing with Mikka.  We are now 12 days later, and we humans do not socialize. It is a no-no to think about hugging and well, bed swapping…….. maybe never was a good idea for humans.  The true ‘statement and expression’ of how much we love having Marley was when, we humans discussed Marley maybe going home early and Henry said “But I thought she was staying until Tuesday!!” Ha Ha, We love you sweetheart. Enjoy your cuddles now that you are home and give your family all that great Marley Love.

​Happy Thursday Hux Pup🐾!  Hop on into the Jeep, we are going to have another excellent adventure with the Girls of DGR. We picked up Marley, Aoife and Henry and headed over to Nosehill. As the old saying goes, ’you have to make hay while the sun shines.’ Let's get some fun and a run in before Mother Nature cops another of her hissy fits🤣. Marley was so excited she did not wait for her door to be opened, she was hot on my heels out through the driver's door. Aoife flew out of the back and Huxley had to run to catch up to these gals. We did our usual cardiac workout and at the 4.5 km mark, the gals went home. This gave Huxley and I a chance to pick up the speed and wander over to Edgemont and then back to my place for Huxley’s next date. The Doggy Business Report: all poochies had lots of pees. Only Huxley had 2 poops. Huxley Marley B.

Miss Mikka, I have a surprise for you🎉😊. I have Huxley with me and since rumour has it the weather is going to change let's go for a ’good’ walk. Mikka was happy to see Huxley and they both were on a mission to greet EVERYONE!! We were the ’Welcome Wagon Greeting Crew’ this lunch hour. Not only did both pups have lots of pep in their steps, but they also would not let a greeting go without having a pat from each person out on the sidewalk. Thank goodness they did have ’ pep ’ because we would still be out walking🤣. The Doggy Business Report: many, many pees for both dogs.

Hi Miss Mikka, today is a bit chillier. Jackets on for sure. Did you know it was ’Bring Your Mom to Work Day’?😍. Well, I have my mother with me, and I know you remember her from when you stayed at my place. I think my mom cuddled you for a couple of hours all wrapped up😊. Mikka was happy to show Mom her neighbourhood. Hey, there little Miss you left some breakfast in your bowl. I am going to sprinkle your crushed treats on top to make sure you finish it all up. Mikka was licking her food bowl fairly energetically.🐾 . The Scoop: 4 pees,1 poo.

​It was a ’Girl Power Half Hour Lunch’ walk today. Mikka and Aoife looked like twins today in their matching Winter Wear. Opposites do attract. Today, we had 3 people come on the ’multiple differences’ between these two twins. Plus, how well they walk together. We were all dressed to get a good walk in the fluffy white stuff that was coming down. Still slick under the snow but we all remain upright.🤩️The Scoop: 6 pees, 1 poo.
