Sign of the Times

No more playing in the park, apparently. New signs went up yesterday, which I didn't discover until I took the dogs out last night for a nighttime run.


The signs need to be posted on or near the playground equipment, I think, not at the entrance to the ball field, which is getting very little use except by people playing with their dogs. Every day I see people bringing their kids to play on the playground equipment. That stuff is getting touched way more than the gate to the ball field.

Oh, well.

A Trip to the Vet with Siri and Faye

Both Siri and Faye had vaccinations due, so for the sake of convenience I scheduled their appointments for the same time, something I've never done before with any of my dogs. Just in case, I took the two of them on a test drive a few days ago, although not to the doctor's office. Instead, we went to the gas station, since I had to fill my car, and then we went to Burger King, where I bought them some chicken nuggets. At both places we got out and walked around in the outer areas of the parking lot, and there were no problems.

Faye has been well-behaved on (both) visits to the doctor so I didn't expect any problems from her. Siri, however, has a tendency to announce her displeasure with very loud barking and attempts to leave, and today was no different. It did get us into an exam room a little sooner than normal.

Once in the exam room they were both pretty good.








For the record, Siri weighed 110 lbs. and Faye weighed 24 lbs.

More Pictures

Here are a few more random pictures...

In the last couple of days, Faye has started climbing up and lying on my legs as I'm sitting in my recliner.


She's going to outgrow this bed soon, her second one.

Puppy's First Bath

Faye had her first bath at Belly scRubs today.




Faye was not happy with the bath.


She did seem to enjoy meeting the staff and some of the other customers and exploring the place while we waited our turn. Afterwards, we went to McDonald's for some chicken nuggets. Faye is a good traveler; so far she just relaxes in the back seat, just like Siri.
