The park
September 9, 2009
The four dogs walked nicely together. I had the girls on one side and the boys on the other. They were excited to get home where it was cooler and they chased one another around a bit.
Myla, Addie and Monte
September 9, 2009
The dogs played inside and then we went for a walk in a nearby park. They are all tired now and trying to catch a quick nap. Ace and Monte are buddies today. It’s nice to see that Monte has made himself at home.
Buddy
September 8, 2009
Buddy is such a mellow, well-behaved and well-trained boy. He had a great time playing with Ace and then going for a short walk with me before it rained.
Maddie the Maltese
September 6, 2009
Maddie is going to be so excited when “Mom” comes to pick her up! She has been such a good girl. We went for a walk this morning, and after that Maddie has been hanging out with me. She is not afraid to take her toys away from Ace.
Puggle

Charlie is being a very good boy! He is calm and well behaved in the house and does not bark. We went for a 2-mile run today, and now he is resting at my feet.
Hound dogs
September 6, 2009
These two make me smile every time I see them. I love how different their personalities are. Lucy wants treats. Patty wants to cuddle. Lucy howls, eats her food quickly and can’t wait to go for walks. Patty is quiet, eats slowly and could care less about walking. 
Who said Bassets are lazy?
September 5, 2009
These two can run!
Patty and Lucy are so lucky to have a nice yard for relaxing and playing. When I’m there, they are more interested in petting than they are playing with toys.
Maltese

I gave Maddie a quick bath today and brushed her. She didn’t seem to be too thrilled with either but was very tolerant.
Patty and Lucy
September 5, 2009
The dogs are always very happy to see me. I expect them to be howling with joy when “Mom and Dad” come home. Patti was not interested in a walk today, so after trying to get her to come along, I allowed her to stay home.
It’s cute how sometimes when they drink, their ears are right in the bowl!
Charlie the puggle
September 5, 2009
Charlie has been a good boy. I’m impressed at how nicely he goes into his kennel at night. Good dog! On our walks, he does pull and cry when we see other dogs, but when we come home he is tired and calm. I’ve been practicing commands like sit, down and stay with him. He is a sucker for treats!
Madeline
September 5, 2009
OK, there has been no need to call her by her full name, Madeline, because she has been good the whole time! I love having a little lap dog. We have been going for a couple of walks a day and as you can see Maddie has claimed the couch.
She has been eating well – she picks at her food here and there as she is hungry.
The Bassets
September 4, 2009
The girls are doing great! They sure love attention. I made sure to give equal affection, even though Lucy was a bit more demanding. Patty has been outgoing as well, though. When she knew I was leaving, she ran downstairs to the couch hoping I’d forget to put her in her kennel.
Charlie
September 4, 2009
Charlie and I went for a run, and that helped calm him. We will go out for a more leisurely walk later this evening.
Maddie Jo
September 4, 2009
Maddie is so cute when she gets excited over toys. She can go from totally calm to ready to play in two seconds. She also loves her treats!
Lucy and Patty
September 4, 2009
These two might be the sweetest, most gentle dogs I know. They made it very clear that there is room for two Basset hounds in my lap.
Golden parade
September 4, 2009
I get to walk these three and pretend they are mine when people compliment on how pretty and well-behaved they are.
Maddie update
September 4, 2009
Maddie is having a great time going for walks, playing and cuddling. It’s so cute how she tries to burrow her way under blankets. Ace tries to steal her toys, but he usually can’t get them from her!
Maddie seems very well adjusted and well behaved. It must be because she gets to go so many places with her mom.
Ms. Stormy
September 3, 2009
Stormy is one of the many dogs for adoption in Fargo. Is she the right dog for you? She is good with cats and other dogs. She is kennel trained and housebroken. She has even been through beginning obedience classes.
Naptime for Maddie
September 3, 2009
When her kennel door is open, sometimes Maddie goes in for a rest.
Maddie
September 3, 2009
After a walk this morning and exploring outside, Maddie is ready to relax. She was a very good girl last night and went right to sleep in her bed.
