Where in the world....

Where in the world have we been?

Well gosh.

EVERYWHERE!

Taricha and Martok are doing very well. Healthy and mentally sound (most of the time). We've been busy running all over and training all over. Oh and starting a business.

Great news! I quit a job I hated and was going nowhere with.... to open our very own dog walking and pet sitting service! Why not do what I love? Yah Im doing it!

So you local Kansas City, Missouri (and Kansas) folks..... Look us up sometime and tell your friends.. Positive smart pet sitting, dog walking and extended local hikes! 

 Website - WALKpetservices.com 

and like us on Facebook!

In the meantime.... See you all on the trail! 

We are not dead!

This summer has been awesome! I tell you what... we are some exhausted puppies at the end of every day. Rollerblading, Hiking, Frisbee, Camping, Traveling, 

Pools, Lakes, Vet Visits and Agility classes. 

Dress up, Play Dates, Elevator Rides, Trains, You name it!

Until I have the energy to write on the blog more... follow us on Instagram! 

Triplets

Martok met some beautiful black pups at the dog park the other day. The three of them seemed pretty thrilled with each other. Git uhm!

New Places

While the dogs certainly enjoy places we know well.... its refreshing to change things up and walk a new area.  The summer heat isnt so bad lately so downtown seemed like a good idea. Taricha and Martok agreed.

 

There was an ice cream truck dinging around this building so of course we had to stop!

Having some ice cream in the shade really hits the spot. 

And then we found some pirates!

Now get outside and have some fun! 

Winter is coming!

 

A Lotta Nature

Stuff like this is what keeps us away from the computer! This trip was the bestest. In the middle no nowhere Missouri, Taricha and I made camp for a few days with the family and my man friend. Taricha was thrilled to have all of 'her' people around and all the meats over fires to smell.

A whole day was set aside for just doing something Taricha enjoys. We managed to hike a good 8 miles, explored some caves, ate some lunch, romped and all around had a great time.

and At the end of a day....

Oh I gave her other soft places to lay down but she decided this floatie was hers!

 (Where is Martok during this trip? Oh I left him at home sadly with the roommate. I try to take the dogs seperatly here and there, we like our time together. Oh and the two of them together can get a little much to handle for extended periods of time... Martok is still a puppy, after all. Next year when he grows a bit, we may have some real family trips!)

A Good Summer

I do apologize for our lack of being here... it's just that we've been busy enjoying summer!

More Water

Martok is slowily teaching Taricha that water is awesome! 

This is our favorite lake, Perry Lake and the water levels are finally low enough that a beach is starting to appear, making romping around much more pleasurable than the rocky ledgest two months ago.

Sunday Evening

Time for a nice long hike!

Moo, I'm a Cow

Taricha has always had a love for grass.

Must taste good? 

She will seek out particularly tasty patches and munch munch munch!

Taricha is feeling fine! She just... likes.. grass and always has!

Sometimes she'll even pout at me when I wont let her eat grass...

....like grass in yards or near buildings and parking lots.. 

Must avoid eating chemicals!

Enjoying summer and hope you are too!

There's a storm coming!

Trying to get a little fun in before another storm rolls in.

Kinda hard to tell but the sky is shades of black.

A rare family photo!

The Liberty WWII Memorial overlooking downtown Kansas City.

We are pooped!

You So Pretty!

Only a little embarrassed! 

Feels like Summer is really here

Oh man, this heat and humidity has been just awful and this whole coming week is going to be worse!

We are trying to spend more time in the AC!

We loves us some AC!

oh don't worry too much, we get plenty of sunshine too.

We just tone it down and shorten it up.

Especially Taricha with her short face and pink skin.

Instead of walking laps around the park on hot pavement.

We sit in the shade and read a book.

   

Best part of summer is sometimes we get ice cream.... !

I Love This Face

A Week in Review

Martok wanted to show off his latest skills and accomplishment. 

Another class down, he starts basic agility next!

Taricha is leaving all that silly school work to the puppy.

She'd rather just enjoy the grass.

I visited a snake guy and got to play with some beauties! 

The dogs we'rent so interested in that.

Sort of came home with two new snakes. 

A pair of red blood pythons.

Most importantly we visited with Hank.

He was our shepard foster a while back who found his forever home!

Martok and Hank got along extremely well, even with the size difference.
I was delighted to see Hank doing so well and happy.

The summer fun better keep on comin!
