Silly Sleepers

 Both are doing well on their housetraining... Selma is using the doggie door on a regular basis and when she does go out and potties, she runs in a full speed all wiggly and gives me a bark, running to the kitchen for treat time!

Sadie isn't using the doggie door, but goes to the door and let's us know she wants out... She can come in through the door from outside, but still wants to be let out...

We are working on sit and both are getting it; both are very treat motivated!

Let's Play Chase!

Selma loves to get Sadie to play chase, i think it's her favorite thing to do.  They are pretty cute and I think Selma would do it all day if she could, but we have to watch and make sure the Sadie gets breaks.

 This video shows the power of Sasha, aka FUN SPONGE..who just likes to do walk-bys and calm the area down... It's so funny... It just her thing and i think she's down it to nearly every foster dog that she thinks is having tooo muchhh fuuuuhhhn!

 But when Sasha goes away.. then they play!

Sweet Sadie

Sadie is so sweet and while she will get down and play, she prefers to snuggle and be next to her person.  She also likes to sit high up on you and even on your shoulder if the view is better!

  She's also a donut napper, getting into a circle and tucking her nose in for a well deserved nap!

 Last night we clipped her nails and she really didn't like it all, it was very scary for her.  We will work this with her and try to a less unpleasant experience for her...

Vet Trip for Selma

Selma got a small cut on the top of her foot on Friday that required a trip to the vet.. It was definitely more traumatic for us than her... She was excited to see everyone and loved meeting all the new people!

 The exam table did make her a little nervous and she needed some reassurance, but when the vet came, she was wags again and tried to make out with the vet... She got a small dab of glue for her owie to keep it closed and we were off again...

 She does great in the car and enjoys the doggie car seat where she can see everything and look around at whats going on...

She also loves loves loves the fuzzy donut dog bed from Costco.. She made noises of joy I've never heard from her once she got to snuggling in it... see video.  She is not a fan of the crate and can actually climb right out of the 6 foot tall xpen so we are given her small doses of crating with lots of fun  - the dog bed certainly fits in that category!

Sunshine!

We got a bit of sunshine on Monday and the girls just loved being outside and soaking up some rays.  It gave both of them the zoomies and it was nice to see them enjoying the backyard and not just peeing as fast as possible and running back inside. 

Selma is pretty much using the doggie door on her own which is great.  Sadie's a little more hesitant and needs some convincing. 

Seahawk Sunday

Selma wearing a cute little Seahawks shirt that Angela - Skittles mom, gave me... She looks adorable in it.. She's been busy this week and learning the doggie door.  She isn't bothered by the cold and snowy weather though she is happy today that it is sunny and bright. 

Cute Sadie, too small for the Seahawks shirt, she just walks out of it... She loves getting her belly rubbed as much as possible... She doesn't know the doggie door yet and is totally offended by the wet ground... she takes some convincing (okay, some holding her and taking her outside) to go outside at all, preferring to stay as warm and cozy as possible!

Cuddle Buddies

Look at these cute little foster sisters learning to share space and cuddle.  I am pretty sure Selma would be up for cuddling with Sadie 24/7 but Sadie not so much though she seems to letting Selma cuddle more with her - plus they are playing together and lots of games of tug as time goes by...She's relaxing I think...

It started to snow tonight and both these California girls are not impressed and what nothing to do with it... it took a few minutes; but they both pottied outside as close to the house as possible where the roof overhangs and there was snow on the ground... Sadie took more convincing than Sadie, but they got their business done and run as fast as they could back in the house for treats and warmth!
