Note: Unfortunately, you could only enter one dog per person, so Zekester has to wait his turn. Today, it’s Daisy’s day to shine! Thanks for voting! Go Daisy!
Daisy and Zeke love their new yard. They got to sit outside for a whole hour today since the weather was so nice. Tomorrow is supposed to be even sunnier and warmer, so they are very excited! Here are some photos of them enjoying the new green…

It’s like Where’s Waldo, but with Zeke:
Also, today Zeke let me clip his nails with hardly any fuss at all. I’d never tried it before since Daisy throws such a fit about it. Well, at least I can save some money by trimming Zeke’s nails at home. The drama queen will still need to go to the groomer’s. Sigh. Daisy, how we love you.
Well friends, it’s past time for a new post. Things have been very busy at our house with planning for a wedding and our recent move. The good news to report is that Zeke’s mouthing and nipping at guests problem has completely disappeared since he’s in a bigger house! He and Jeremy are doing great! This truly is an answer to prayer!
The cutest thing was watching Zeke sit quietly next to the Verizon guy and watch while he installed our phone and Internet. He hasn’t been this calm since he was our “poky little puppy!’ Along with increased space to explore, perhaps more exercise is helping since the dogs can spend more time in the yard, and they can also run up and down the basement stairs. The fence running issue has also disappeared completely with the back yard being fenced. Both dogs are loving the fenced back yard! Daisy likes to sit on the deck, and Zeke likes to run up and down the hill. And the best news of all is that we only pass two houses that don’t have dogs to get to the park to walk!
Here are some fairly recent photos for your viewing pleasure:
This is how Zeke likes to spend cold, winter days…
Who’s that doggy in the mirror?
Does anyone have caption ideas for this photo?
And a special reminder: Stumpy still needs a home!

Well, it’s been awhile since we’ve posted since things have been really busy! Jeremy and Mom got engaged on New Year’s Eve, and the rest is history! While Daisy and Zeke are excited to move into a bigger house and spend two weeks at Grandma and Grandpa’s house during the wedding time, they are most excited to live with Jeremy! Zeke promises to be a good boy…
Other than the usual focus and impulse-control training, there’s not much to report. We’ve all been suffering from the winter blahs lately. To help cheer everyone up, here are some new photos!
Zeke is so cute with his stuffed toys…When he’s not shredding them!
And here’s Ms. Daisy looking prissy, as usual…
And it’s snowing like crazy again today! This was earlier–now there’s even more inches!
And here’s what the dogs like to do on snowy days!
So, Daisy and Zeke had to spend Christmas away from Mom again this year, but it paid off in the end… Mom brought them back new “Margaritaville Mutt” collars from Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville in Key West, FL. They look very cute, and Mom took photos to send to Margaritaville for their pet wall.
And Mom also brought home gifts from Aunt Vickie and Cousin Candy. Yum!
They wait so patiently when food is involved.
And here’s the video of them opening their gift and chowing down…
And here’s Zeke eating his cookie:
And here’s Daisy watching Zeke eat since she finished early:
Let it snow! Right–who can actually “let” it snow… Here are photos and video of Daisy and Zeke during their afternoon playtime in the yard. You’ll notice there’s much more snow now, and it’s still coming down!
Daisy is cold.
Can you smell the snow?
Mom, I want out, please.
Pretty please…
Zeke’s paw is cold…
Daisy: “Hmmm… Between the snow and the fence, I won’t be able to carry out my plot of world domination. At least not until the snow melts…”
The snow’s coming down heavy in the D.C. Metro area today, and there’s no hint of stopping until later this evening. Daisy and Zeke braved the snow earlier today–when we only had about a foot! Here are a few photos and a video–more to come!
Hmmm… There used to be a jump and tunnel in our yard…
Look, Mom! We found our tunnel!
Look, Mom! I’m digging and not tearing up the yard!
The snow is coming in fast and heavy in the D.C. metro area. Daisy won’t go outside, and Zeke is ignoring my calls to come inside. It’s going to be an interesting day. More photos will come when the ground is covered!
Daisy and Zeke recently visited Grandma and Grandpa for Thanksgiving. They had a great time visiting and enjoying the larger house to run in, spoiling from Grandpa, and long daily walks with Grandma. They also had turkey and sweet potato Kongs on Thanksgiving and enjoyed grain-free treats from the new dog bakery…
All went well overall, except for Daisy eating Grandma’s chocolate, Zeke’s bully stick, and a muffin. Zeke did really well with the kids, which was also a great relief since he isn’t around them much.
