Life with the Two Crazy Dogs

It was a breeze sitting Riley. He is very easy going, loves to fetch like all retrievers do.

Came home yesterday afternoon and all 3 boys were so excited to see me. All 3 tails were wagging super fast, like the windshield wipers turned on high speed! Looked around and no accidents. Kong balls all over the place and giant double-knot rawhide for Riley was three-quarters gone.

Sent them out right away and fed them their afternoon treat. The weather was perfect – sunny and temperature was in the 50s. I dug out the tennis balls and Frisbees for them 3. Well, I should have known that Ranger does not care much about fetching. Cooper and Riley were bouncing off the ground dying to fetch. Fetching freaks, they are. Those two were fetching till their tongues were hanging by the side and slurped up the whole water bucket. Took some pictures of the boys…will put them up when I get home.

We were out there for about 45 minutes. Came in and them boys were out lying next to me by the piano. I was hitting the ivory keys till DB came home at 4. As soon as DB changed, we hit the road for our walk. It was a slow pace walk for me which I’m not use to. Our two boys were so excited to see DB walking with us…..very rare DB comes with us on our walks.

Got home and fed them hungry boys, and then we ate. All 3 were out to lala-land. As soon as we were done with our dinner, Coops and Range know what will come next – carrots and apples. They both sprung right up and patiently waited for me. Good old Riley tagged along and was given the bare teeth “Grrrr” by Coops – dominance thing.

Riley loves his pats and he acts like Coops. I was playing the piano again in evening, he came over, nudged my elbow to pat him. I patted him and took my hands away, he used his snout to “moved” it back to his head.

All three of them now are super clingy to me. Cooper is still telling Riley who the resident dog is, Ranger don’t give a shit at all as along as I’m home and he can be with me. When it was bedtime, Riley still goes over to the door probably waiting his owners. He was lying on Cooper’s bed, and was growled at again. It was funny to see how dogs tell other dogs who is the alpha. All three wants to sleep near me…..sigh….what can I say….motherhen.
