Puppy Pals

Jax had another busy Saturday, with two friends coming over to the house for a play date. Thank goodness for the fence in our backyard because it is just perfect for the dogs to all run around and play. It was a gorgeous day and I hung outside with Katie (Brodie's mom) while we played with the pups and the "dads" built a couple of "Cornhole" game boards in our driveway.
While she seemed to recognize Bella from last weekend, Jax was a bit scared of Brodie - a lab mix pup from her same rescue. He did happen to knock her over while running for a ball, so I think it freaked her out each time he came tearing toward her after that. All three enjoyed the many sticks and leaves we have in our yard and Jax ate countless pieces of bark (and another disgusting item that we couldn't quite pry from her mouth).
After spending all afternoon outside, not to mention getting covered in slober from doggie wrestling, it was definitely time for a bath this evening. Again, she did very well although she did try to hop out of the tub a couple times. Now, the entire family is beat and ready for a good night's sleep!
