August 13-16th @ PawzitiveFX!

Everyone is back at PawzitiveFX after my 2 weeks vacation in Atlantic Canada. Everyone was very glad to be back; it's been non-stop playing, chasing, creating Vitamin D in the sunshine but not staying out for long each time, as temps are in high 90's with real feel of up to 108F!!!!!!!! Crazy!

The dogs get 5-6 outdoor breaks in a 4 hr period. They love it!! They gecko hunt, eat grass, sunbathe, chase each other, watch the ducks etc. 

Here's a preview of our week! Enjoy!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The following 4 photos are significant because all three female dogs have been human male-phobic and not at all desiring to be near my husband, Bob on the rare occasion during the day when he is  home.
This week he's been telecommuting so is around when the dogs are here. 


Stella, (Australian Labradoodle) was very afraid of Bob and it took 3 weeks of him arriving home mid-day for her to finally feel comfortable around him. Does she seem afraid now? No. She actually goes up to him for rubs and scratches!


Stella (L), Juno (middle), Lyra (R) are all vying for attention. Who ever would have thought this? Not me and probably not their Moms!! They all now go up to him for affirmations, rubs, scratches.


Juno enjoying a massage. And she initiated the contact by going to Bob's chair, putting her paws up and then upon invitation, jumped up! Yay!

Juno assisting Bob @ work


Bailey & Stella have planted themselves at the boundary line (set by me) at the kitchen; They're obviously hoping for, but not begging for, anything that may drop to the floor :)


Lyra (L), Stella (R)


Bailey, ever on the watch for geckos
