Meredith cozied up with this one and played fruit slicing games on the iPad.Meredith and Amy kept Maddy company out of the kitchen and away from..Pre-dinner holiday photo for my dad's holiday newsletter!Maddy liked them also.After we'd finished our gift extravaganza, it was time to walk the hounds.Maddy got some new toys she was excited to play tug of war with (and then obsessively chew them to destruction in all of 10 minutes).And Ted was excited to chase Maddy around the living room while making honking noises.Loves being chased.How chasing ends.Headed to Penn Station. Maddy really likes looking out the window any time she's in a moving vehicle.Mer spent Thursday busy baking up another batch of cookies to give to my parents! Maddy likes.Quiet night at homeI want to smash her speckly body so hard.Look at this little back-snoozing, son-of-a-bitch....and cake mold that lets you make a GIANT COOKIE CAKE. Haha. Admiring our dog collection with hot chocolate.Maddy pretty much eats her weight in rawhide every week. On the way home, we picked up a rawhide BONE WREATH for this little monster.Maddie graduated from pillow-fortress to what we call her "Russian Princess Cape." Clearly a gift from Ellen.Some time the heat's not enough and you have to build a pillow-fort around it in order to stop the shivering. Haha.Maddly LOVES Edie so much. Haha. This one gets so nervous when we start packing for a trip! After we finished packing, we dropped this one off at Leigh's and headed to the airport!The rare hooded snarl-weasel.It's like living taxidermy....you can pretty much pose her however you want. Maddy hardly has any hair and pretty much requires clothing to not constantly shiver once the temp drops below seventy degrees.You never take me to no marathons.Rather than let them go to waste, I figured maybe I would saw them open into strips she could chew.Maddy eats SO MUCH rawhide, but has trouble eating the knots at the end because they're too big for her mouth.Doesn't even get out of bed in the morning when I leave.Bug / Dad reunion.We packed up our bug and headed home....to go to the Halloween Dog Parade. Meredith sewed Maddy this "bug" outfit.Now your turn.Later that night Miye and Kristen came by and took turns receiving hound love.Snuggle buds.Maddy bidding me farewell on my way to work in the morning.Later that evening, Ellen came over for a hang. We fed her lots of home cooked food and then settled in for...When it starts to get chilly Maddy refuses her morning walk. "No, thanks. I'll just stay here in my vest nest."Filthy grimple....and took her over to the dog park where she made friends with this pink-eared snooch.Only October and this one already has to wear clothes outdoors. Pathetic.She cuddled Maddy into zombified eyes-open sleep. So long September!...and cuddled on the couch.After a long evening of eating pie, Maddy and I put on our matching shirts...Maddy likes to nap on my lap while I play. Haha....abuse it. SHOW ME YOUR TINY TEETH!The only problem with having a pet this adorable is that you always feel the need to...It's only mid-September and Maddy already requires a sweatshirt to stave off the shivers. Pathetic....and took this little champ for a walk.All packed up and ready to go!Blessed with armrests .So lucky to know it.Maddy goes crazy for the light up frisbee. She literally goes out of her mind going after it. And once she gets a hold of it......she likes to proudly keep-a-way at a trotting pace. Haha.CAN TRY PIES?We had both Maddy and Edie with us!...put a weird cape-blanket on our constantly-shivering short-haired dog (a-dorable)...On Wednesday night, our neighbor Russel came by and claimed his two hounds. Maddy was pretty excited to have us all to herself again.Three dogs is a little much when they're all going crazy and are excited to go on a walk. But when all three of them are tired out...Maddy loves playing with this ball, but she also enjoys......using it as a tail-rest. Haha.Lucky!Hahah....and feeling cuddly, there's really nothing better. I came home from the store to find this going on in the living room.They couldn't believe how many wiener dogs we had. Haha.Hahaha.Three-wiener gang!On Friday night Liz and Frank came over for dinner!It's hard to get the grimple to sit still and cooperate when she's wriggling to lick your faces.Later that night, my parents drove us back up to the bus and we headed home! Congrats, John & Lindsey! Thanks so much for having us!Buds.Mom getting some quality time with the speckle horse.Blinky and sleepy.Back at the homestead, the hounds were so excited to see us they celebrated by chasing each other around in a circle for 90 minutes.Maddy is faster than Teddy and it makes him FURIOUS! When we finally catches her he always administers......NECK BITE!Maddy likes to drag her wienery body through the grasses of suburbia.Happy hound.Sue and Maddy.And also dogs. Haha. I love this picture!Amy, Brett and Maddy.Teddy and Maddy!We have the same favorite chair. Oh, your turn now?These two fuggers were conked out before 8pm...As soon as you lay down on our couch, this tiny visitor jumps up to say hi.I'm usually big spoon.Double sniff....and this one.Late Thursday night, Leigh came by and dropped off Edie!Head in a blanket.Saying goodbye to these two on my way to work in the morning.Once it nuzzles in, it's instantly sleepy.Amanda came back to our place to hang.Lazy Sunday. This one couldn't even be bothered to get all the way out of bed.On Saturday morning we got up and started packing a beach bag. This one gets nervous any time bags are packed.Taking the houndine for a walk later that evening.
