A lazy day....

Parker and Tink enjoyed a peaceful laid back day at HOME today! What a novel concept. It was so cute to see both of them sacked out; Parker on the floor sucking his bed and Tink on the couch. We walked and they sniffed until their little hearts desired several times today. Tink was taking a long time to do her business this evening and Parker apparently was tired of waiting so he flopped himself down into the grass belly up to wait/take a nap!

Tink woke up this afternoon with her head/neck stuck down to the right with what appeared to be an enlarged right shoulder. She didn't want to walk and she didn't have good balance. I gave her some baby aspirin with some yummy cottage cheese and let her sleep a little more. When she awoke, she shook and stretched and smashed her face into the carpet which let me know that she had shaken whatever kinked her up earlier. She is so precious when she smashes her face into the carpet and rolls around...

Some things we love about miss Tink:
  1. her little head fits so perfectly in the crook of my shoulder
  2. the pleasure she gets from rolling around and smashing her face into the carpet first thing in the morning and after meals
  3. her gently disposition and easy going attitude
  4. She NEVER gives up
  5. her ability to love and trust us completely

Nick and I went out for just a bit this evening and when we came back home both dogs grabbed their kongs and had a kong party here on the living room floor side by side. It was adorable!

Parker has been such a joy! He's been affectionate, well behaved, and gentle with miss Tink!
Here are a few of our favorite things about Parker:
  1. I love how he body slams himself into the grass first thing in the morning. He rolls around and slides down the little hill in the back head first, on his back.
  2. The smile he generally wears on his face!
  3. The joy he shows in all of his favorite activities: walking outside, chewing on bones, belly rubs, dinner time....
  4. how long he looks when he is sprawled out with his froggy legs behind him and his front paws fully extended!
  5. He loves car rides! He will attempt to jump into ANY open car door or trunk!
It's been a beautiful weekend....and now we must get ready for our 4 day work week!
