Cooler weather and your pets!

I, by the way, get gleeful, and Paul huddles for warmth under another sweatshirt!

We've had rain for two weeks now -- one acts as though it were a nice summer day and the other seeks out the coziest warmest spot she can find and huddles under blankets-- and that one is the 2 yr old. My other wee one acts the same as if we were in mid summer and she'll be 15 on Halloween. Both doing well and the older one has spurts where she wants to chase a ball, then she needs her rest. Still loves her daily walk even in the rain... the temps have dipped to O a few times but the norn right now is always in the single digits. Summer is definitely over.

I was out at the "old homestead" today, and remember how Gracie, our Great Dane, was so convinced rain would dissolve her delicate self (Gracie being 145 lbs, 3/4 Great Dane, 1/4 Lab) that when would dance anxiously on the top of the porch when she needed to piddle on a rainy like today, and finally when she simply couldn't hold it any longer, dash down the stairs across the driveway and piddle on the first patch of grass she hit! She would than sprint back up the stairs to the "safety" of the porch. Temperature didn't bother her much, but rain was just terrible, awful stuff!
