Happy Hallo-woof!


Ossi and Eli "dressed up" as cats this year. We hope you enjoy the pictures as much as Ossi and Eli enjoyed taking them (okay...they hated their costumes and tried to eat their ears).





















Look at him 'roar'! (also known as a yawn after getting bored with the Halloween costume)

A Big Visit

From the last week of September to the first week of October, Kerstin and Lennart came to visit from Sweden! Ossi and Eli were very excited about their arrival and loved having them here to snuggle with on the couch and to show off for. The boys were especially thankful for the snacks they received under the table while Kerstin and Lennart ate (see above for proof).
Eli loved it when Lennart would take a nap on the couch because he could curl up and snooze right next to him. The boys practically exploded with excitement when Jimbo and Susie came to visit Kerstin and Lennart -- all the G-Maws and G-Paws together in one place! Ossi and Eli learned some Swedish from all the "conversations" they had with Kerstin and Lennart. Both boys agree that K & L can come to visit any time.

The weather has been warm and sunny every few days and cold and rainy every few days so when it's nice the boys love to be outside. When it's raining, they stare out the window and sigh with boredom.

Ossi and Eli sun bathing After working with trainer Amy from the K9 Coach for just one session, the boys are doing great with their new walking skills. L-Dawg can now walk them both at the same time with no pulling, no barking and less going crazy when they see other people, dogs or anything with wheels (i.e. bikes, strollers, skateboards, etc). Amy is coming back next week so we can stay on track and also so we can learn how to properly greet people when they come over.

Thanks Lennart and Kerstin for coming to visit!! XOXO, Ossi and Eli
