Doggie Nirvana

The fence is done! Even though the lattice isn’t up under the deck yet, we decided to go ahead and let the dogs run free in the backyard. Oh, my. Murphy was running full tilt around and around, ears streaming out from his head, and Molly was exploring every single fence board to make sure it didn’t harbor any stray C.A.T.s.

I was worried enough about making sure that they didn’t run under the deck (it’s anywhere from 4 to 5 1/2 feet clearance off the ground, and there isn’t a fence on the other side) that I didn’t bring out my camera, but I will definitely have to get some chase pictures this weekend. Molly-of-the-bad-hips was chasing Murphy as though her life depended on catching him. Just imagine a blur of black followed by a blur of gold, and you’ve got your pictures.

Now the dogs are totally exhausted. Even the word “food” can hardly get more than an ear twitch response. A tired puppy is a good puppy!

    Hurrah! I can’t wait to see them! Does this mean no more standing outside in snowstorms with a leash waiting for poky puppies to go potty?

    I’m sure even if you had your camera, they would just be a blur. That’s why all the pics of my dogs are while they’re sleeping. Fenced yards are fun for all!
