We lost walkin’ time for a month when the temperature hovered around 90 and the humidity was high. Yep.. not only did Olivia not want to go out but I didn’t either! It was brutal… and we didn’t have it bad compared to other parts of the country!
So it cooled down and we’re out again! She is such a hoot! When she could see and hear, she hated having her picture taken.. the BIG EYE you know, watching her… and she would hear the click and run the other way! Now, she has no clue I’m taking pictures and I holler really loud at her and she perks up and prances. She likes to go through the long grass… I think all of my dogs like that. When she’s had enough, up the nose goes and she turns and heads through the woods to the house. I, however, since the woods were filled with mosquitos, decided to take the scenic route past the flowers and corn! Click on the pictures for close-ups!

Recently I was walking with the dogs in the training area and Brita was being very cautious because she has come out with the short end of the stick at times with Jake. So Brita is in the first 2 photos and then Jake comes crashing out of the trees and around the large pine tree. In the next 2 shots, Brita is oblivious to what is going to happen but at the last minute sees Jake charging right to her so she ducks and he jumps right over her, swings around the tree, grabs a toy and puts on an innocent look! In the next few shots Jake is being goofy while Brita is staying clear of the action still not sure of what happened! (Click on the picture for a closer up shot… everything seemed to blend together in the action shot)

…but I thought just once I would do a post that was not about dogs… And the good news… not much to read… just pictures to look at! My daylilies were especially pretty this year – or maybe I just noticed them this year because I brought them inside. A friend of mine planted them years ago and choose the varieties.. Heck… I thought they were all orange like the “ditch” daylilies!

Jake and Brita needed a VOM treatment so I met Bob at Nancy’s with his new puppy! How cute, huh!!?!
The flowers are from Nancy’s front yard… I thought they added a bit of color!
