More Pups

Here are more of the dogs that I walk. Well... first we have Lily here, who you have already seen, but I just had to show you all what she gets to wear when it's raining outside. :) Like her lady bug rain coat?


These two are the toughest looking that I walk. The one on the left is Kawliga. (Ku-lie-sha) He looks like he could bite your head off, and sounds like it too, but he's like a sweet grandpa. The other is Lily, and she's a handful. She likes to get in fights with dogs so it's always a bit nerve racking walking around the neighborhood with her. Thankfully we never do run into anyone. (Sorry they look like demons. Their house is a little dark, and it was raining outside.)
Next we have the two naughty pups. This one is Kona and the one below is Mason. You can see the kind of trouble they get into in Mason's picture. Just look at the corner of the cushion he is sitting on. Unfortunately the lady that owns them doesn't help much and leaves things for them to get into all around the house. We always dread this visit because we never know what we will find.

This handsome guy is named Hogan, and he is HUGE. The pictures don't even do him justice, but he is the largest dog I have ever met, even compared to Great Danes. Sadly he probably won't be around for much longer. He is only 5 but Mastiffs have a lot of hip problems and he has already had one surgery. He'll probably have to be put down when the hips go out on him again.

As you can clearly see, this is hogan's paw, and my boss Kat's hand. She is no little lady.


Like I said, the pictures don't do him justice. He looks like a lion in real life.
Then we have these two great labs. The first one here is Eli. He likes to eat. You know... leaves, acorns, sticks, anything he can find that you tell him not to eat. Sounds like a lab right?

And his roommate is Bear. Bear is also a giant of an animal, and he's especially fun because he likes to jump on you, which makes him as tall as me. He's cute though. After I let them out in the back yard he likes to sit behind me on the couch and put his head on my shoulder while I write their note.


Here are some video's of a dog named Wanetta. She was trained as a puppy to work as a seeing eye dog so she's really smart, but she didn't make the cut in the end so she gets to be a normal dog. (Sorry about the unsteady camera. It's hard to hold it still and throw a ball at the same time. Also, how does anyone stand my voice?)

Here is one last shot of Lily. She is a Boston Terrier so her nose is squished up making breathing hard as it is, but she also has really bad allergies which make her breathing even worse. I had to let you all hear what she sounds like. (Sorry you can't hear it very well, especially with my talking.) It was the rainy day so after going out to pee, as fast as dogly possible, this was our "walk" for the day.

I'm naming my next child Wanetta and training her to be just like her name sake! Amazing!
