Life with the Three Crazy Dogs

Yes, I’m off today, however, it sure seems I’m busier then when I’m at work. Got up at 5:30, had breakfast, did some outline for my paper, checked emails and took the boys to the hiking trails. I was surprised how many people and dogs were out on the trails. It was windy but I warmed up fairly quickly. We ran about 4 miles today on the trail. I wanted to run the smaller trail after the 4-mile run, but my face got too numb for us to go any farther. Ranger seems to be kinda lethargic; he was not as spunky as when we were at the dog park yesterday. Maybe he is still tired. Well, he is 7+ years old. Age is catching up on him. Cooper is 6+. He is forever a hyper dog.

I just gave them some rawhide and Ranger is so darn proud of it. He picked it up and is walking back and forth my office. I sent him out so he can chew it in peace without Cooper staring at him! Good thing about Labs, they don’t mind the cold and wind at all. They can stay out there forever. If I have that kind of coat on me, I wouldn’t have a problem with the cold either.
