Weekend fun

This weekend we had a visitor.... a friend was going out of town for the weekend and asked us to watch their dog. Sure no problem. Aero is what you'd call a "friendly bully" he doesn't realize that what he's doing the other dogs don't like it. There were a few reminders but all in all I think the weekend went well. Aero likes having other dogs to play with. The other dog actually wanted to play and would start playing with Aero. They were tired but the end of the weekend.

They actually drank out of the same bowl, chewed the same bone or rope toy at the same time. Mind you if Aero wanted it there was nothing the other dog could do to stop him. Nathan thought he was in charge of the dogs, if they were playing and he didn't want them to he was right in there trying to stop them. He got a few bumps and bruises this weekend. When Nathan sits on the floor he is at the same height as Aero's butt. When the dogs were playing they didn't care who was near them, I had to remind Nathan that if he didn't want a face full of butt he'd better move LOL. Aero is male the other dog is male but neutered I think Aero will do fine when we bring the other puppy home. Which should be in time for my birthday in MAY!

This morning was fun! There was a power surge about 7:30 and then the water slowly ran out. It was off for maybe 20 minutes. But in that time you're thinking OH CRAP! We as a city have a new water treatment plante and I think the power surge affected it.

Oh the joys of having no water lol
