Catching Up to Easter

We all know spring has sprung, and April is already confirming what we already know, and that's that it's an unusually busy month at our house.
~Life is good....For Eva!~

Max (below) was released from the care of the orthopedic surgeon a few weeks ago.  With the all clear, he'll finally be able to get that much needed visit to the groomer.
He really needs it!
Charlie had his spring hair-cut this past Thursday.
 
Bo has been enrolled in a "nose class" that began last week.  It's a very basic beginner class. He is the first blind dog that the instructor has had in any of her classes. The dogs attended the 2nd class.  We practiced their finding food-treats in boxes scattered in the ring.  Bo did better on his second try after I changed what he was looking to cheese-popcorn. I'm hoping the class will build his confidence and get him out of his shell.

We have also said good-bye, for the third time to our foster-kitty, Mo.  I know, I know, I should have (and was going to) adopt him.  But for several reasons that I'll tell you about in another post, we didn't. I have left the door open for him to return to us if it doesn't work out.
Carl has been out of town, and will be back on Monday. So Easter weekend will be a quiet one at our house.  I wonder what kind of trouble we will Todd can get into?

  1. just a little wash under my chin for now!!! And Mo, maybe this time will find the home that fits the bill. Enjoy your Easter, and all at your place will have company with you and everyone there.

  2. Cheese popcorn...surely that'll get him going. Todd looks like he's waiting to attack that water.

  12. Good for Bo - that nose work could come in very handy for him.

    Misty says she is sure Todd will find some fun somewhere, especially with that sprinkler:)

  13. I must admit that I’m sad to see Mo depart, but wish him all the best. And also good wishes for Bo and his class; may it give him the boost he needs. Max is looking like a wooly lamb and Charlie is very spiff. Eva is as beautiful as ever and Todd . . . always up to something funny. Happy Easter!
