Dogsitting Amy's (Cincy's Mom) dogs

[4 Dog Mother]

Amy and Ralph went away this weekend so we took their trio. As you can see their dogs do not like to stay here - are terribly afraid of their grandpa

Some of our kids - Snoopy and Pippi - weren't too sure how they felt about Dad being surrounded by the grandkids.

[kimlovescats]

LOL! What adorable pics, too bad they are so stressed! :p
I love the expression on your Pippi's face! :D

[4 Dog Mother]

Aand one final one of Spot praying his mom and dad come to get him soon - there is no place like home, there is no place like home

[Karen]

Dazzi must have had quite a time keeping all the newbies under control! :) Yeah, they sure look terrified - NOT!

[BC_MoM]

Those poor canines! ;) I would never leave my dogs in such a loving situation!

[chocolatepuppy]

I do believe the pups really like their grandpa! Very nice pics. :D

[Cinder & Smoke]

... so we took their trio.
As you can see their dogs do not like to stay here ...

<snikker>

They look Soooo terrified and uncomfortable (NOT)!

Reminds me of several times I've "dumped" the Three Amigos at Unka Pat & Miz Joan's house
up the street. I always get a warm greeting when I come back to pick em up ...

But convincing them they really are supposed to LEAVE with me takes a minute or two! http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/rolleyes.gif

My trip to Michigan to ride the Coast Guard Cutter Mackinaw was three days and two nights ...
I got back, came into P&J's kitchen for a while and told some tails;
then said it was Tyme to Go Home ...

The Three Mutts all watched me put on my jacket, open the door ...
and seemed to be saying "Nice seein ya - come again - we're gonna have a snack an
then hit the sack." http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/eek.gif

Hey! You guys are commin with ME - say G-Bye and let's GO!
SmokeMutt looked at Pat as if to say "Do we really have to leave?"

Cincy, Sadie, and Spot prolly wouldn't have *passed* on the weekend visit for
all the buscuits in PetsMart ... but I bet they were Happy to see Mom & Dad! http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/wink.gif

[DrKym]

Aboooooooose! I can see the headlines now! "Dogs cuddled to death by Grampa, all dogs took turns in Deaths embrace!"

Rofl,makes my guys wish we go away! They want us to book accomodations at your hostel! :)

Great pics! and everyone looks so happy for a fun weekend!

[sabies]

Was Dad/Grandpa ever able to leave the couch? You really had a full house this weekend!

[4 Dog Mother]

Are you kidding? Grandpa is one of the biggest couch potatoes around - especially during football season!

[finn's mom]

Now that is a house full of love! I love your husband's hair color, it's gorgeous! He looks happy being attacked with doggie love. :) Jack is cute, is he an airedale? (I ask because my boyfriend grew up with one and that is the breed he wants to get next if and when we get another dog!) Spot is so handsome!

[4 Dog Mother]

Jack is an airdale - I trim him myself because he doesn't like the typical airedale look. He HATES being brushed and to keep the airedale trim looking nice it needs to be kept brushed. Jack is Carl's favorite. (They are all my favorite). He says we'll always have an airedale now. We didn't get him until he was five. I think the puppies are real chewers and tend to get a litttle destructive when left alone.

I don't understand why men's hair always change colors so nicely and ours doesn't

[K9karen]

:eek: Those poor, mistreated pups..how DARE you do that to them! :p

Thanks for the sensational pictures!!! The last one of Spot is priceless. Those eyes....Geesh!!! :D

[shais_mom]

GREAT pics Diana!
you definitly captured the "WE ARE FAMILY" look!

[Pam]

What awesome pictures! I love the close ups and the captions are just perfect. :D Poor pups. I can see the sheer terror in all of their eyes! :p :p I know it gave Amy and Ralph much peace of mind to know that their fur family was so well cared for.

I don't understand why men's hair always change colors so nicely and ours doesn't

Isn't that the truth! :rolleyes:

[Cincy'sMom]

Had I known how scared they all were, I wouldn't have left them!!!

Thanks for watching them! You got some great pictures!!! I'll try to post mine tonight, from the trip.

[pitc9]

LMAO!!
I love the last one, of Spot "praying"
Of those were great!

Amy, you're so lucky to have family that can dog sit for you!!
I'm sure Grama feels pretty lucky too!!

[Ginger's Mom]

Aw, what a happy family. Just like any kids visiting Grandma and Grandpa. :) I think it is great that your kids are so good about sharing their Dad with the grandkids.

[ramanth]

Such torture!! ;) :D

Great photos. I bet the dogs had a blast.

[Cincy'sMom]

So where were we over the weekend, while the pups were at my mom's?

[ramanth]

What fun! Did your team win? :D And those kidlets are growing like weeds! :eek:

[Cincy'sMom]

What fun! Did your team win? :D And those kidlets are growing like weeds! :eek:


Actually, they did! UC was on a 5 game losing streak and down 21-7 early in the game. They came back, played a great game, and won in Overtime. It was a great game!

[cyber-sibes]

Oh yeah, you & Carl really have that "dog torture" thing down, Diana! :o
Grea to see your crew, too. Taggert's "winter look" is quite becoming, I like him all fluffy.
