He seems pretty large but I don't think he is over-sized. He has a good appetite and loves to run and play.

He enjoyed chasing the lawnmover the other day. I don't know what he wanted to do with it if he'd caught it. :)

UGH, hate those mud wasps.
But since they are less insanely aggressive than the paper wasps and they kill the bugs that would eat my rose, I leave them alone.

We are feeding him Iam's Puppy Chow with a small amount of Pedigree Puppy canned food.

When should I start training ie: sit, stay. I've been trying to teach him to sit but he gets too excited to stay sitting.

I'd said I would never purchase another dog; there are so many in shelters that need homes. I couldn't resist when hubby took me to see the litter, tho.

I've never hitched Louis/Max to a plow. I may try that to see how strong he is. ;~)

[Darksheare]

LOL!
The captions fit so well that there could have been thought bubbles above them.

Good afternoon, PAL.

I hope you are enjoying your vacation.

We miss you!!!

Have a wonderful week.

Happy Monday FRiends! (No, I don't believe in reincarnation, but coming back as a bear might not be so bad! hehehe)

What's so happy about it? I'm out of coffee :D

Labs will start training at 6 weeks. They learn commands very fast, especially with treats. They get ADD at first but they improve with time.

[JustAmy]

LOL ...

Great reasons to be a bear.

MamaBear ... see post #66.

[JustAmy]

LOL ...... hope this helps.
Now you can have a great day!!

[JustAmy]

Okay .... I will keep it going.

He knows what I want him to do when I tell him to sit, he just doesn't want to stay there very long. Gimme the treat; gimme the treat.

[JustAmy]

:~)

Hi Amy...Hey...I'm finally stopping in...can't offer anything more than a great big hug and kudo's for a wonderful site... I NEED to stop here more often. How fun and sweet and relaxing and welcoming!

Trying to firm up flight arrangements for Rusty....am a little on pins and needles... Keep running in between yard stuff to see if I have freepmail...

[JustAmy]

Post number 36 has my most recent pictures of Louie/Max. He is growing soooo fast.

[JustAmy]

Grandma's Lilacs

Grandma's yard was full of flowers
Never were there weeds
Sweetly smelling velvet petals
She planted all from seeds.

Roses, daisies, daffodils,
I caught my breath each time
I walked into this little garden
It's beauty was sublime.


Grandma loved her lilacs best
She held her breath each year
Hoping that the weather held
A late freeze she would fear.


The magic morning would arrive
When fragrance filled the room
And I would know before I looked
Grandma's lilacs were in bloom.

I wish we could join you. It sounds like lots of fun and a great treat to meet the Ronald Reagan.

We have scheduled our Annual picnic for September 11th. Maybe you can get a group to come up for that weekend. We will hold a rally on the evening of the 10th and have our picnic on the 11th. We will probably plan a march or something for that time.

Mark your calendar .... we would love to see you!!!!

I can't caption my cat..
It's usually "evil, evil, evil, evil, mean tempered, evil, evil, evil.."
