Ahh, the weekend. I'm staying with the Mastiffs, Boatee & Latte until Tuesday. 350 pounds of pure cuteness. In the bed, on the couch, on our walks - the girls are hilarious. But don't stop paying attention to Latte, she'll get into mischief in under 10 seconds. Read their bios - that comment about dancing on the table...that's literal. Now that the politics of politics are over and there is no more baseball for awhile, we'll be blogging all critters all the time!

We rounded up the week with with some new clients in Farmington. We  visited them a few weeks ago and they were so happy with the service that Ziggy, Daisy, Boomer, two dogs & two cats called us back again! They were referred to us by one of our vets - Thanks Doc!

....A funny story with my girl Ncosi, the Ridgeback that walks with me in Bloomfield. She's notoriously lazy, perhaps in some small part, believing she's still on the farm under the great African sun. Well either way, her true colors came out on Friday as we went for one of her requested hour long walks and ran, sprinted actually up the great big hill back to her house. Here is the excerpt from the email I left her folks---

Whew! We both got a workout today! Not only did I have the time to get
her an hour, but we ran and ran hard!...at least up the hill. She got
into it big time! She started growling and barking at me as we raced up
(she was pulling away from me like lance armstrong with 4 legs) At
first I thought that maybe she was barking for me to stop torchering her
with this unecessary exercise...then it became painfully apparent that
she was egging me on! Trash talking me! "You wanna run bipedal
homosapien? Alright lets run!" I think she even called me Mayonaise!
(Officer + a Gentleman if the obscure reference eluded anyone) ....When
we got back to the house, she gave me a nod and said ''Better luck next
time.''
