Who doesn’t love dogs? VEGANS! (and ISIS). An update from the pups at Williams Manor beginning with a big thanks to Maggot Heidi for her gifts. Here, Maestro, like a good boy, enjoys his in bed.
Scout, meanwhile, was being a typical Lab and not adhering to commands so he didn’t get his toy, and he got put into a timeout
Like a shark in water infested with women on their periods, Maestro swooped in and took advantage of the free toy and laid right in front of Scout chewing on it.
Not long after, Scout was released as I was chopping up left over greens, which we add to his meals each day. And he clearly knows these are for him
Back in the family room, Maestro is relaxing after all of that toy playing. He does this often. Goofball.
Later, we decided to give Scout another chance and grabbed his favorite toy, Sizzle the Squeaking Snake. He gets 5 supervised minutes with it per session, otherwise he’ll tear it apart. He loves this thing
As I man-splained to my wife, the key to “supervised play” is the actual supervision. Mission failed. We held a burial for Sizzle in the backyard.
The intended theme of this photo update was the sleeping situation of the canines at Williams Manor. Here, Scout demonstrates using one of their balls as a pillow
One of the challenges is that when all three (Nellie, Maestro, and Scout) are napping, they want to lay together like the pack that they are
The sleeping arrangement, however, means there’s not enough bed room, and somebody gets stuck on the floor. Wouldn’t it be better if they could snuggle together?
I was able to find these super soft, super big fluffy beds, hoping they could squeeze together on them. I mean, look how small 103 pound Maestro looks?
Nellie, being the Queen Bee at 13 ½ years old, often marches to her own drummer and is most happy in a bed all her own. And she’s earned it
That face…
She’s either yawning, yelling, or singing. You decide
Meanwhile, while Maestro, and here, Scout, are loving the new beds, they’re lying in them separately…
And then came this just this past weekend. I swear I didn’t stage this…In fact I disturbed them when I walked in and they perked up for this picture. They had been sleeping right there. Daawwwwww
