Dogs and Snow

Reindogs....

Just a reminder...

A number of Christmas season plants are poisonous to pets if nibbled or eaten: ivy - moderate to very toxic, all parts; holly - moderate to very toxic, especially the berries and leaves; mistletoe - very toxic, all parts, especially the berries; Christmas greens such as balsam, juniper, cedar, pine and fir - all parts have a low level of toxicity; hibiscus - may cause vomiting or bloody diarrhea if ingested; and poinsettias - leaves and stems low in toxicity. This is not a conclusive listing...there are many more toxic plants. An additional listing of both non and toxic plants can be located here. It's wise to keep plants out of your pets' and children's reach.

Hi...or Howdy as we say in Texas

JD here today.....Keeping a close eye on these youngters...

Here's little Rooster......

He looks all sweet and innocent....but believe you me...
he can bite hard....

Nolan is looking for a toy to play with.....and watching...

Rooster and Jake...

I'm looking for another pecan...

Jake and Rooster love wrestling around...

sometimes he pulls Jakes beard a little too hard...

and Nolan steps in to save him...

Rooster loves to play with Jake...

It is good exercise for both of them...

I'm going to take a nap now...keeping up with Rooster...

"Wanna play ball Rooster?"

"Hey where are you going?"

"I'm starvin.....yummy...."

"Now where did that Rooster go????"

Everyone is getting used to the new puppy....well except

maybe Bliss....she doesn't really enjoy him too much...

but she tolerates him....as long as he stays away from her

territory.....the boys all love him....until he bites to hard...

but they let him know really quick...

Rooster update

Hi...my name is Rooster....they started out calling me

Buddy Blue...but I like Rooster better...I'm named after

a old guy Rooster Cogburn from a John Wayne movie..

I like my new home...I have 3 brothers and one sister..

I've learned how to use the doggy door...sometimes I get

stuck but finally plop through....I like chasing Jake around....

Nolan throws his ball at me and let's me chew on it for a while..

then he takes it away....JD keeps a good watch on me to make

sure I stay out of trouble...Bliss plays with me when no one is

looking....
