So proud of Mandy and Nova (*16 pictures*)

My aunt, uncle, and two cousins came over today for a day visit. Morgan is four and Ashton is one. Luka and Buck stayed outside or crated because they were too hyper and they were scaring Morgan, who in turn would scream, and that would get them even more excited. But Nova and Mandy were both very, very gentle with the little ones. I was a little worried about Mandy, who's never really been around crawling babies, so when Ashton was crawling around on the floor I sat beside her and petted her and watched her very carefully, but she never did anything more than lick him. Both of them were shaking for Morgan when she'd ask them to and Nova also sat for her as well as did a trick for her that I just taught her last night! I taught her to hold things in her mouth when I ask her to and Morgan told her tonight to "hold it" with a tennis ball/toy combo and she did it, and she also dropped it when Morgan asked her to. I am very proud of my girls!

That's all! :)

Well done Mandy and Nova what good girls you both are :D. The photos are great Sarah and those dog beds look sooo comfy. Thanks for sharing with us Sarah you must be proud.

Great pictures! All four of your dogs are so beautiful!! :D

What good girls! Your cousins are cute. ;)

What pretty and well behaved girls. And what a good girl Nova is for doing commands for your cousin.
Simba LOVES children, surprisingly.

LOL that one of Nova with her purse is so cute. :D

What good girls! I love the bed pictures, they look so cozy. :)

Too cute, I love the Mandy kissing pictures. I am not surprised that she was good with the little ones. You were still young when you got her (okay not that young, but still young), so she learned to love little ones. They are both very good girls. :)

What good girls!! :D

fabulous pics Sarah! as always!

Those are great! I love the one of Nova and Mandy on their beds, with Nova's leg hanging off. :)

Great pics! :) Too cute! Kind of off-topic -- what kind of camera do you have? :) I always like your pics.

those are so sweet Sarah :)

Don't you love how they always surprise us? Mandy looks so, so sweet giving kisses. :)

I love these pictures! The ones of them sleeping are just too precious. Makes me feel relaxed just looking at them :). You take lovely shots! I'm glad they made you so proud, that's one of the best feelings in the world!

Love those pics! And there's nothing cuter than some sleeping dogs. I think this pic is so sweet.

Good dogs! :D Mandy is so white. You can really see the pittie in her where she is kissing your cousin. In my eyes anyway. ;)

I love the picture of Nova holding her purse. Wonderful pictures as always Sarah.

Thanks everyone! :)
