Casper's Bath 15

Ahhh it's good to be back in my house

Too Cute!

I just thought this pic was too cute not to share! It was taken thru the back door with no flash - thus Grizzly's muted color - but just look at that face!

Gone Nuts!

Cocoa has lost her mind! I let the two in this afternoon cuz it was raining they did their normal run around the house and wrestle routine. I decided I was gonna lay across the bed and read to be out of their way. After Cocoa lost interest in Grizz she turned to me. Sat right along side the bed resting her lips on the edge of the bed and looked at me - when I didn't acknowledge her as fast as she wanted me to she gave out a barooooowl and grabbed the book I was reading! Lucky for her I finished Harry Potter last night and was reading a different book! She made a lap around the house with it then dropped it in front of me - I told her she was kooky and went back to reading - she jumped up on the bed and flopped across my back and barooooowled in my ear (so special-not) I rolled her off me and she proceeded to nudge at me and grab my hands - I gave her scritches and pats then back to reading. Another barooooowl and she was pulling at the pillow under me - I shushed her away - she grabbed my shirt sleeve - I got her off that - she started nippin my arm (just her front teeth in tiny tiny bites very quickly - almost like someone imitating a rabbit eating) that of course got my attention cuz it pinched! I played with her some more shushed her off the bed and went back to reading - she made two laps around the house while baroooooowling then jumped back on the bed and grabbed my hand - I played with her some more then told her to stop - she did - for about 30 seconds! She tried nudging me, pulling the pillow out from under me, standing on me, pulling the comforter from all different corners - just as loony actin as you have ever seen a dog!

I finally put my book down, (took this picture) checked to see if it was done raining (thankfully it was), then asked if she wanted to go back outside - she was off the bed like a shot and even beat Grizz to the back door (that never happens) I opened the back door she ran out top speed came to a screeching halt at the edge of the deck flopped down and closed her eyes - she is still laying there as I type this - I swear sometimes I think this dog is on drugs! LOL Of course during all of this Grizz just sat next to the bed and watched Cocoa with a look that said "WHY are you so goofy?"
