Suicide puppies

So.. in an effort to tire these little monsters out, I take them for a bit of a walk around my backyard. They should follow me like little lambs, but not these guys. These guys run over to the wall by the pool and than launch themselves off the side onto the stone patio, nearly killing themselves. OMG.. they need to go home, or I am going to throw myself off the side of the wall and commit hari kari with them.

Suicide puppies

I know why

I now know why the Europeans let their puppies go to their new homes at 7 weeks.. BECAUSE THEY ARE READY TO BE OUT OF THE HOUSE.. OMG... This is the longest time... It has done nothing here but rain.. Now what am I going to do with 7 13 pound puppies that can't go outside. All I do is try to keep them clean and prevent my house from smelling like a kennel. We have candles going, and windows open. I have bleached the floors so much my poor hands are peeling. Please, please, let them go home soon..

Because they can

I know that I have been on a bit of a rant about the poops, but... it has become an issue of not if they poop, but who will poop. For example.. yesterday morning we are awoken by the familiar smell. I go downstairs to find Delia literally covered.. She has pooped, peed and thrown up all over herself, the crate and her surroundings. I get her outside, the crate outside and begin the clean up. It was a mess. The little babies are not even an issue. This was gross. So bad, I gave her a bath in my 19 degree garage just so I could get a feel for if she was not feeling OK. I took her over the vet, because she was not acting herself. 140.00 later, yup she just ate something that upset her stomach. I came home with her after work, ready to clean the babies, when lo and behold Roxie had pooped. Now come on. Roxie, who has not had an accident even during the raising of the babies when she was eating 12 cups of food a day. I looked at her and could do nothing but laugh. As I was cleaning her up, I look outside and Tanner is lifting his leg on the outside table. Have we all just lost all of our dignity? Everyone has regressed to the level of the six week old babies. Anyway,, this morning, Roxie again. I give up.

Disgusting

My puppies have decided that eating the poop in the backyard is about as great a thing that there is. Even my new girl, Delia has gotten into the mix. I have banished Kendra to the pen because of this, and now Fiona has taken up the slack. This morning, in my pj's I was out there running after her as she was going from pile to pile and I was trying to scoop before she could get there. Then they look at me, licking their lips, yum... yuck. They will all be banished is this sort of thing doesn't stop.

rain, rain go away

Well, I thought the snow was the worst thing to happen.. No scooping, just ice and mess. I was wrong. The worst thing is rain. I have 15 dogs at my house if you count the puppies and the two that don't belong to me. I have no where to put them. I put two of them in the pen up at the top on Sunday when it was so beautiful.. And now they are so covered in mud they are banished up there until the spring. Everyone else is on the porch. Yesterday I thought,, should I vacuum and mop? Why in the world would I do that? It is a mess, and the puppies need to go outside and they just can't. The next three weeks should be long, dirty and smelly.. Can't wait.
