Ike getting what he usually dishes out!

At first, it was just Ike and Tobit. I was trying to get the shot of Tobit mounting Ike's head like a furry Russian hat but, Ike wasn't letting her get into her favorite position.



Then Belle got in on it.










Then BB and Millie joined in.



The girls had even had him down and surrendering.



















Kissing to make up.

Buddy is Now Just One of the Dogs

This is a GREAT thing!

The first time Buddy came, he wouldn't leave his kennel and come out to play. The second time he came, he came out for the first play time and then never again. The third stay he came out for a couple of playtimes, maybe once a day. This stay, his fourth, he came out for the first play time and then he stayed in his run for the rest of that day and most of the second day. I was worried he had had a set back and I'd never get him out again.

When he is out he is calm and friendly, not playful yet but doing okay with the other dogs. When he is locked behind a fence, he is barky and fond of fence fighting with the other dogs. I have seen this before, somehow being restrained makes the dog insecure and frightened and therefor they act aggressively.

Well, yesterday afternoon Buddy not only came out, he came out to play. I had a mass rough-housing with BB, Millie, Nila, and Buddy. They were having a great time and Millie was not playing in her hyper-aggressive style. They were just have a big furry ball of fun.

I couldn't have been more pleased. Only problem was that Buddy when home shortly after that and the others couldn't seem to work back into a fun wrestling match with out Buddy.

I just wish they didn't look like they are killing each other.

This really should be shots of Terry and Millie. They were a perfect match for each other. They were both growling and showing their teeth and completely harmless except that they looked like they were killing each other. At least they had each other, any other dog would think Millie was really coming in for the kill and I'd have a real fight on my hands.

But now Millie has Bruno all to herself. None of the other dogs want anything to do with either of them. Bruno is still trying to mount Millie but she is too small and too fast for him to pull anything off.

Once again, they are having a great time, and no one is getting hurt, but they still look like they are killing each other.





Millie really is the sweetest looking little thing. I just had no idea the Tasmanian Devil that was hidden under all that cuteness.
