Doing yard cleanup, a few pics of the pups

[K9soul]

Today is a gorgeous day here in central Minnesota. David was out doing yard cleanup, and I was out with the camera and the dogs :p. I registered at photobucket and loaded them there since I'm having problems with my own webpage lately due to my ISP working on something so the sites aren't always up.

Anyway, these are Tasha heavy. Tommy mostly laid around chewing his log. Enjoy :)

That's all :)

TASHA AND TOMMY!

You guys look like you are having fun! Aren't you just enjoying this gorgeous weather? We sure are. Mum took out a couple of the agility things from last year, and we got to go over them. Do you still have snow 'down there'? We still have clumps here and there, but we can feel that spring is making its comeback on winter! We know that we would all have so much fun playing together. :)

Love,
Digger, Chubby, Prince, and Otis <3

I look forward to new pics of you guys enjoying the spring weather! All the snow is gone here, yesterday it got up into the 60s! :eek: We have some plants starting to peek out, like lillies and sedum and hostas, a few of my perennials from last year coming up. I just can't wait till everything really explodes into bloom and growth. :D

The pups are really loving the warm weather, especially Tasha. Tommy doesn't mind the cold as much. Tasha was settled down right next to David and I most the time, just soaking in the sun and being with her people. Tommy dragged about 3 different logs around the yard :rolleyes:

AW! Tommy! He's adorable. Tasha is such a pretty girl. :)
Great pictures, Jess! :D

[Holly's mom]

Great pictures! I have to chuckle at Tommy, he doesn't just settle for the measly "stick" to chew on, it's gotta be a huge log! :D Both your puppers are gorgeous. As Emma, said spring is peeking out here, especially yesterday, it was just gorgeous, I was out raking the yard and Holly was running around, just having a great time! :) :) It's a little breezy today, but the sun is out and it's just going to get better!!

What beautiful pictures Jess:) I envy you and the pups. It's only 38 degrees and rainy here today! Tommy and Tasha sure do look like they're enjoying the Spring sunshine and of course, quality time with mom and dad:D What a beautiful family! Can't wait to see pics of Tommy and Tasha romping in the hosta!;)

[Cookiebaker]

What gorgeous, gorgeous pictures! Tommy & Tasha are glowing in that sunshine!! :D

[Karen]

Oh, Tommy, I know a red-golden girl in Ohio who I bet would swoon at the sight of you in the sunshine!

I'll echo Sandra, just grey and rainy for days here - send some of that sunny warmth our way!

I was thinking the exact same thing!!!

What cute pictures!!! Looks like they are both enjoying the day :) I'm sure you've said it before, but any idea what mix Tasha is? She's gorgeous :)


This pictures is just tooo sweet!

:eek: :eek: I want your yard! *jealous*

What a cute pair! Give them kissies for me would you?

[K9soul]

Thanks for the compliments! Cincy'sMom I think that is my favorite picture too of the batch. Tasha is a greyhound/shepherd mix. She may have something else but the greyhound/shep is all we are sure of :). I think she's very pretty too, very slender/light boned and graceful.

Ashley, the yard is the thing that made us fall in love with this house and buy it as our first home a few years ago. It has a huge back yard, surrounded by pines. I just love it :D

Sandra, I can't wait till the yard really gets going either. We have hostas all over the place :D. I'm sure I'll be taking lots of pictures once it all gets growing!

Tommy is a silly boy, he not only wants logs rather than sticks, but he is never happy with just one log for long. He always has 3-5 logs scattered all over the yard, and he switches off on chewing/carrying them around. When he runs across two of his logs next to each other, his indecision is hilarious. He will start to pick up one, but then put his nose by the other, and kind of go back and forth mouthing both of them, looking so confused as to which he should pick lol.

Thanks again for the comments. Hope spring comes soon to those who are still having dreary weather :)

I was going to guess greyhound from her muzzle, but I wasn't sure what else. In the picture below ( and not so much in any others), she reminds me a little of Mugsy's Tigger, who is a pit/husky mix.

I thought I had a good picture of Tigger from the dog park, but this was the best one I came up with

Great pics :) They're so cute :D

Awwww! Tommy and Tasha are so adorable.
Great pics. :D

[shais_mom]

What beautiful pics!!!
Looks like a great day was had by all!! :)

[Pam]

Great pictures! Isn't it nice that the snow is gone now! I enjoy it, but when spring comes believe me I am ready! I went outside the other day just to pooper scoop and stayed out for about 2 hours pulling weeds, etc. It's amazing to me how quickly the weeds start sprouting. :mad: It looks like you had two "helpers" gathering those twigs and things. Bella can never understand why I get rid of twigs and sticks and does her best to snatch them from the wheelbarrow when I am not looking. :p

[K9soul]

Thanks again for all the compliments :)

Tommy is never satisfied with a 'stick' really. He only wants one if Tasha has one. Otherwise it's always logs for him! Tasha's favorite thing to do is debark logs/sticks. She nips down with her front teeth and then pulls, stripping the bark off. Tommy's favorite logs are all debarked. Once the bark is gone, she's not interested in them anymore. Silly pups!

Cute pics! You have a huge yard! It sure looks differenct since the snow pics...
