Miss Cali turned 6 on March 17th. Yes, she is a St. Patrick's Day baby. She is also 100% Irish on both sides..AND I have been told that her mohawk is an Irish trait. I guess we should give her an Irish accent...but I just don't think that fits as well as Veruca Salt's voice.
Anyway..she is got loving on her birthday and went to the hospital to visit the Polytrauma Unit the next day. But Happy Birthday, sweet girl! Our life definitely would be different without you!
Sawyer was returned this week too. We fostered him last summer (those of you at Kristen's party last summer will remember him as the 'instigator' to the Pomeranian 'situation') but his new owner got a new girlfriend with a small fluffy dog. So..the new girlfriend won. But he will find his forever home soon. He is a good boy and we are fostering him until he finds a home or until we put our house on the market in April.
We visited Kristen and Gyeong this weekend and attended the Greyhounds Rock event. It has serious potential and I hope it only gets bigger! But we had a great dinner and spent most of the evening planning our trip to New York City in 1 week!
Stanley is bored by the whole situation
Obviously..some people can't hang...
The queens snuggle after breakfast..I guess this means there is mutual respect.
Dante, Shiloh, Stanley, Cali, Dexter, Jaime and Stella wait outside while two more hounds arrive for the weekend which brought our tally up to 12..9 hounds and 3 'little ones'.
And..when there are 12 dogs..someone always gets hurt. Not on purpose..and really we have no idea how she did it. But Dana sliced the back of her leg open. It is a pretty good cut but luckily Kristen stays as stocked up in medical supplies as I do, so we were able to fix her up. It will take a while to heal ..but she will be ok. Rimadyl is her friend right now. Poor Roo Roo pantz.
Stay tuned .. the Parks and the Stumpfs are hitting the Big Apple on April 1st. I feel sure there will be plenty of photographs! And yes...we are hitting some pretty great restaurants!
And yes..this ended exactly like it looks like it will
This one cracked me up..
A whole open house..lots of dog beds..they all cram in to one corner of one room (Dana has her muzzle and cap on b/c she won't leave her boo-boo alone)
Wanna know where Dante is? 
And now..NYC OR BUST!!!!

Who loves to spin...it is funny.
And we are watching Dolly and Diego as well.
Dolly does her impression of a Pointer
And then pounces on Diego..
With Amy, Dolly and Cali around..it makes for a lot of Queen Bees. So muzzles are necessary during play. Cali didn't have one on b/c..well she is THE Queen Bee and as long as no one questions that...there are no problems. 
So now..it is hot outside..so we all say inside in the shade. It will be cold again this is only a peek in to summer.
So everyone was good for their nail trims and it IS that time of year..so they all got a Peep. So the photographer had some fun.
A peep in the mud (7 inches of snow melting in 24 hours=mud bog)
"oh no!"
Another peep
"oh no"
A peep in the hand..
is worth a tasty snack
A squished peep
it was sad how much fun I had with the peeps.
I have a ton of photos..and will probably take more. But for now..enjoy the show, you don't need commentary! Many of them were taken while it was still snowing this morning, so they aren't great. But you get the idea.
Dante, on the other hand, is miserable. But can you blame him? His man parts are about 2 inches off the ground with his belly being about 3 inches off the ground..so he was a snow plow. This was as far as he got before aborting and pooing on the deck.
