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!
