THE PLAYERS
For those of you who do not know my five dogs (all rescues), here is the rundown:
Sam I am. 5 year old boxer. Sad face. Good guy. Wants to please. Can play rough. Extremely handsome with bedroom eyes. He is a people pleaser.
Maisy Grey, or Maisy Moo. 16.5 Cancer survivor. Still walks/rides daily. LOVES to eat. Big girl is food motivated.
Buddy Love. My special needs child. Loves to tear things up, wears a diaper because he pees on everything, but so lovable and just damn cute!
Riley. Ri- Ri. She is a tomboy. She is a foster, 1/2 Boxer, 1/2 Boston. 40 lbs. 1 year old. Ripped to shreds athletic. Ready for her forever home. Seems to love it here just fine. (Now off my bed).
Shanti Baby. Black Diva. Thinks she is a cat. Does not seem to like dogs or some people, or much of anything. She marches to her own drummer and is NOT food motivated. Matter of fact, she hates to eat and is vegan most days. She does love to ride kayaks, paddle boards, jetskis, trucks, golf carts, etc.

I saw the cutest thing...
So yesterday me and the babies are patrolling the property. We live sorta out in the country by a lake. So Riley hears something in a leaf pile and dives into it. She is a burly girl, tough 40 pounds of lean muscle. She is poking around and trying to get whatever it is. Then suddenly she jumps back as if it is something bad (I have seen snakes, snapping turtles, muskrats, possums, etc. on property). Well...
Buddy (20 lbs), in his little green sweater with a hoodie, sees this, waltzes right over to the big pile of leaves and takes a big whiz on top then stomps right back down the pile and kicks up some dirt. Problem solved. He is a hot mess. He makes me laugh every day.

A Late Christmas Miracle
I have been working up to leaving the dogs in my house alone, without being kenneled. Basically I was worried about all of Buddy's peeing and Riley tearing up my couch. Typically Buddy will whiz up to 15 times an hour, keep drinking water, keep whizzing on every corner, every object if unattended. And Riley got worked up (when playing) and took a chunk out of my new leather ottoman. And so on, because with 5 dogs it's anybody's guess who is "large and in charge" when I leave.
Well I have 95% solved Buddy's peeing issue and Riley is a calmer, tamer wild animal. So I left, came home and not one thing wrong. Nothing chewed. Nothing out of place. And no pee. Left them sleeping in front of the wood stove. They have their doggie door to get out. When I left I said nothing and kept an image of calm trust in my head. Can't hurt right?!
Feels good to be able to let them roam the house and yard while I am out.
