Rainy coping with the fireplace



I tried to get her to lay on some double beds in the adjoining room to the lit fireplace. It only lasted a few minutes before she ran upstairs!

Last night I put the dog bed in the kitchen and she laid there for about 20 minutes before running upstairs. I started her on 6mg of melatonin twice a day to hopefully help chill her anxiety out a bit. I'm toying with the idea of baby gating the stairs so she has to stay down with us and the fire... Not sure if that will backfire and make her worse!

Decorating the dining room

I've been slowly re doing the dining room. I already reupholstered the chairs in bright fun colors and bought new bright fun colored dishes. Plus I painted the book shelf black



And BF covered the top of the table for me. I can't even cut a straight line with scissors, so it's better if he does this!



I think it looks pretty darn good! It's just cheap self sticky flooring tiles from Lowes.



Not too shabby when it's all put together



 

 

Daily dose of cute

Rainy is so comfy and relaxed today.

Busy day!

Not only did we have snow today but the girls had to work hard at a Petco Meet and Greet to help other greyhounds get good homes.



This is Gem. Don't you love her little socks?

Tara and Sunshine again



Sunshine decided it would be fun to get her head stuck! Pretty sure Tara is laughing at her back there.

Greeting people exhausted Rainy! It sure was one busy Saturday!

If anyone asks...

Sunshine's puppy eyes did not make me go back upstairs at 3am, put on clothes, come back down, and play in the snow with her for 20 minutes.

Really, I'm not that crazy.... And we have well over the 1 inch estimation! There are at least 4 inches out there.

I let them go out to potty and when they came back in she just kept looking at me and wagging her tail with a smile.. She KNOWS I'm a sucker for snow!

This probably doesn't help enforce my sleep at night and don't bark rule.
