Summertime= Fishing

As summer is coming to an end, hopefully the beautiful days by the water will not end so soon!


We have had some wonderful and beautiful days on the water! I would not trade any of them for anything! 


One of the highlights was the day we caught the shark!!! This was my first shark and it was pretty fun (but scary when it came up to the boat)!


Cute little 3 ft bonnethead shark!!! 



The next weekend I caught the cutest (smallest) sting ray! I didn't even know he was on my hook! Sneaky little guy!


Q had mastered the total relaxation spot on the boat.  All you need is a beach chair and you are good to go!


Here is to more days on the water and to more beautiful days with my husband.  Doesn't get much better than this!

Agility Classes

Cali has been taking agility classes or the past couple weeks and she loves it!!! She is becoming a natural one class at a time.  



She really loved the donut and the peanut.  She has such great balance!! 







I think we are going to have to stick with the agility classes.  They are both fun for her and fun for us!!! We have a natural on our hands!!

Cali and Folly


I can't believe how fast time is flying.  I totally missed Folly's 3 month birthday on Monday!!! Next week marks 1 month of having him! How crazy!  We have been very busy around here with guests, work, and I started classes this week (4 days a week :( ).  Here is a little update on these two. 


Needless to say, they are now two peas in a pod!! They play all the time and can't leave each other alone.  That's what dogs do right??  


They are so funny to watch.  They are most rambunctious in the morning (while I'm still in bed and Q is up with them).  Q calls it their WWE time.  


Cali will slam him into the wall or ground but Folly has started to gain some guts as well.  He stalks her so he can pounce on her.  She has learned that if she just rolls on her back he will get on top of her and they just bite each other. 


Then they take naps, then back to rounds 2, 3, or 4. 


They fight over toys CONSTANTLY! Two bones are never good enough, it has to just be one!


But he learns from her so well.  You can see him watching her, trying to figure out what we are saying to what she is doing.  He does sit pretty well.  Q is working on lay down with him... it's going alright! ;) 


They love when Q lays on the floor and plays with them.  He can't control his nipping vs kissing... he struggles.  I love these two and am so glad that Cali has someone to play with full time now.

WELCOME HOME FOLLY

A lot has changed since my last post.  The last time I wrote, I talked about getting a labradoodle but things fell through with that and it couldn't have been at a better time.  We had been waiting before that to hear of a litter of Portuguese Water Dogs but it didn't seem that there were going to be any anytime soon so we looked elsewhere.  Well, within a week of the labradoodle falling through, we got word that there was a litter of PWD in Baltimore, but we were waiting to hear more about them.  So long story short, we got one!!! We picked Folly!!!

 

Folly is a brown, male PWD.  He was born 5/18/14 so he will be 12 weeks tomorrow.  He is very sweet!  He loves to give kisses and chew on his toys!


When we got him 2 weeks ago, he was probably about 11 pounds.  2 weeks later, he is weighing 15.4 pounds!!


He has learned a lot in his short 2 weeks with us.  He is doing well with potty training.  He has never gone potty in his kennel expect the first morning.  He sleeps through the night and does great during the day.


He is Cali's best friend.  She looks for him around the house if she doesn't seem him.  They play all the time.  He started trying to cuddle with her last night on the couch. Too cute! 


Folly is a great addition to our little family and we could not be happier that we got him!  We are excited for many adventures with this guy and can't wait to see him grow!  We love our babies!
