A day at work...

Never seemed as wonderful as today. That's because it was supposed to be our bath day but Daddy and Mommy both had to go to work.  Bad thing is these towels and shampoo were still waiting for us when we got home so I guess we will be having a soapy Sunday this weekend.

Sierra's Scoop

Happy Tuesday everyone! Now that the weather is much cooler at Daddy's work we like to stay in the shop with him as much as possible. Brother and I take turns in the kennel. I like to sleep in my comfy cozy bed inside the office too but Teddy Bear rarely does. I guess he's the protector of our pack. He like to have an eye on Daddy and an eye on me.

Did Mommy...

...go to work for a VET? We can smell other furry friends on her almost every day. We're not sure how we feel about her seeing other pups and not being able to be at work with her. If other pups are allowed to visit Mommy at work we think we should go to work with Mommy every now and then.

Tiffy the cutie

Mommy must work at a veterinary or pet store because she always comes home smelling like a different pup. Today Mommy's met her customers furkid named Tiffy, a cute little Terrier. Of course Mommy thought to offer Tiffy a cup of cold water. Since dogs are welcome at your work can I go to work with you Mommy?

The working Teddy Bear

Oh boy am I pooped. I've been working so hard lately. Even though we all had a short week, I still can't wait for Friday. I would much rather be sleeping in everyday, and then just lounge around all day. Forget Friday, I
Can't wait for Saturday.

Wordless Wednesday: We're taking over

National Take Your Children to Work Day

We got to go to work with Daddy today. What a treat that was! We missed Mommy a lot. But it was different and fun being with Daddy all day. It brought back memories from when we used to go to work with Daddy all the time. We can't wait till next time!

Week two in the garden

Looks like we have a lot of work to do, Daddy!


Look at all of those kale plants!


Mommy just loves the baby broccoli plant.


The garlic seems to be doing excellent.


Look at the chive plants. They didn't do so great last year so we're hoping for a better season.


Our lemon tree is not even a year old and it is already giving us lemons. Woohoo! I think Mommy should make some lemon poppy seed scones with them.

Dirty Friday

Well guess where we went today? We went to Daddy's work.

Sierra had a five p.m. VET appointment for some routine shots so I assured her that the shots wouldn't hurt too much.
Whenever we spend the day at Daddy's work we come home with dirty paws that make us look like we are wearing little black socks. Then we leave dirty little foot steps all over the carpet and upholstery.

Daddy must have cleaned the floors this week before we got there because they weren't too bad this time. Daddy also did a good job of covering most of the floor in his office with a clean drop cloth. I am glad to report our feet didn't get too dirty but even after all that, I get the feeling that it's still gonna be bath time very soon.

Sierra's Scoop

Happy Tuesday everyone, it's Sierra. I know I don't look too excited about being at Daddy's work but it all started out so differently. Mommy got up at six o'clock this morning, she had to get up extra early for her job working at my Grandma's deli. So while Daddy was walking out the door this morning, he looked back at Teddy and me and said "let's go." We know what that means and we were ready in two shakes of a leg. It was just like old times again riding in Daddy's truck taking turns hanging out the rear sliding window. Daddy's work is fun at first but by the 11th hour away from home we were all ready to come home and a little sick from missing Mommy so much we couldn't wait to get home to see her. We were so happy she was already home waiting for us when we got there.

All this work...

...leaves an Eskie very tired. We've been going to our new home every night this week. Sierra and I are so excited to be there that we don't nap very much while Mommy and Daddy are working. So while Sierra is napping on Grandpa's couch, I can be found a few feet away from Mommy, hugging the hamper.

Happy Labor Day

I was very happy to see Daddy when I woke up this morning. An extra day with Daddy? Wow! Daddy enjoyed his day off and didn't do too much work...just hung up two sets of curtain rods and panels, mowed the lawn, and worked in the garden. We couldn't think of a picture that showed Daddy resting. So we thought these would work. They are pictures from our day at the beach on Saturday.

If you biggify this picture, you can see that there is a huge smile on Daddy's face. This was Sierra's first time in the ocean.

Not So Thankful Thursday

Sierra and I were so excited to go for a car ride today. But I already knew we were going to see our dr. I was not happy about it...at all. Sierra was out like a light but I couldn't sleep.

Sierra went in first. She had a wellness exam and she's in perfect health.
Then it was my turn. As soon as we got out of Mommy's truck, I tried to walk the other way, away from our drs. office. We went in and walked straight into the exam room. This is where it gets a little embarrassing. I have never liked going to see my dr. Mommy and Daddy aren't sure why. They think it's because I had to spend the night there after my big boy surgery. I started leaving pee-mail all over the place. I even got some pee-mail on Mommy as she put me onto that icky metal table (This is very unusual for me. Even as a pup, I only left pee-mail in the house a handful of times.) This is the only place where I have worn a muzzle. I REALLY don't like the drs. office and I would never bite anyone but the nurse lady said something about taking precaution. You can see just how sad I am. My wellness exam went well and I am in perfect health. The dr. stole some of my blood to check for Heartworm. I am free of Heartworm. Next he gave me a shot for DHPP. Then I knew we were done and off the table I went. We couldn't get out of there fast enough.
Since Daddy works just down the street from my dr. we went to see him. Sierra and I hadn't been there in a long time. Here is the pee-mail I left on Mommy's shirt.

I was SO happy to be far away from the dr. I love laying on the concrete at Daddy's work.
Look at these cute pups that were near Daddy's work. Daddy says they live there and that made Mommy sad.
I hope everyone had a great Thursday. I am so thankful that Thursday is done!

A walk around the new neighborhood

It was another work day for us at Grandpa's house today. After working hard all day we went for a long walk. Mommy and Daddy thought we should become familiar with our soon to be new neighborhood. First we walked past an almond ranch. The almond trees were in full bloom. There were TONS of bees pollinating above the trees. The ground was covered with white petals. It looked a lot like snow...I wish it was snow. Back to our walk. We saw two horses today. I wish I could've gotten closer to them. Maybe on another day. Then we saw two Border Collies at another property. They were very friendly. Maybe Sierra and I can play with them soon. We also this giant St. Bernard. We've never seen one in person before. I'll have to think twice about playing with him.

Sierra was keeping watch as I tried to open this present I found today. Daddy found us and told us it was a present for Mommy. After Mommy opened her present, we all went to Grandpa's house to get more work done. We put more boxes into the attic and then went for a walk around our soon to be neighborhood. We heard lots of pups barking. There were so many things to see and new scents to smell. We had no problem finding our way home. We knew just where to turn when we got to Grandpa's street. Mommy got to work, looking through the last few boxes. Daddy and Grandpa finished putting together a closet unit for one bedroom and started working on Grandpa's closet organizer. Sierra and I kept busy going back and forth between Mommy and Daddy. After a hard day of work, Mommy and Daddy went out to dinner with my BFF Milo's pawrents. Too bad they didn't bring Milo. What they did bring back was this delicious little bunny. I thought it was mine. Again, Daddy said that it was for Mommy. Happy Birthday, Mommy!!!

P.S. We have not gotten into the doggy bag yet. Mommy promised that we'll have shrimp and scallops for a snack tomorrow.

Thankful Thursday

Before Mommy and Daddy went organic, raw, crunchy, granola they used to buy the giant packs of string cheese from Costco. This was also during the time that I went to work with Daddy. Daddy would eat his string cheese with an apple every day and of course, he shared with me. Then Mommy and Daddy became more concerned about where our food came from. That was the end of string cheese. I still get regular cheese but haven't had string cheese in a really, really long time. Well guess what? Mommy took something out of the fridge tonight. I knew right away what it was. STRING CHEESE!!! Mommy and Daddy were at Whole Foods the other day and bought one just for me. I am SO thankful! I didn't share with Daddy since I shared with Sierra. She doesn't know what string cheese is but I think she loved it. Oh, string cheese, I've missed you! I think I'll have to put string cheese on my birthday wish list.
