Quick, Mom's not watching--over the side here!

All I did was cool off--why the bath?

Happy July 4th from Kayla, pups, Marion, Alice and Pam!

Today started out sunny, went to cloudy with thunder showers, back to sunny with more showers on the way. We are hoping that the fire-works show scheduled for tonight is able to be held here in Bradford, the town folks put a lot of effort into this night!

Kayla celebrated the 4th by going swimming with Ranger--not that we wanted this, but they went off and plunged into our "babbling brook" (now a rushing river) just to test our mettle! Both dogs came out quickly, very pleased with themselves. Kayla then had to get a bath, as the pups need a clean IWS Mom, not just a wet one.

All the pups are up on all fours, and all have their eyes open. They are now trying to climb out of the whelping box, so we will be changing their "living space" this next week to accommodate their next developmental stage. Hope you all have a glorious 4th!
