Ella and Shaker took off like they were shot out of a cannon. Ella took the lead shooting across the yard, up the fence line, through the pond and then poked out in the flower garden. Ella is small and nimble so she flirts through the hostas, day lillies, and ground cover like a Mazda Miata, but Shaker, well he is built like a Sherman Tank. When he hits the flower beds, I say a quick prayer for my beautiful flowers. I should give credit where credit is due he is either getting better with his navigation skills or he has trounced enough that the path is now officially wide enough for him.
On the Ruff Ruff front, no matter how hot he gets he flat out refused to get in the swimming pools. (I have 3 scattered about in the yard.) So as we were sitting outside watching our clowns play, we decided to put some sprinklers out tomorrow evening. I think if I strategically place them, I can ensure that Ruff Ruff will get some water. I can't wait to watch him turn himself inside out to avoid getting wet. I'll have to remember to take the camera out back tomorrow!

Mom finally let me have a little run by myself in the yard today - first time since I had to visit the vet for my "tutoring" last week. I still can't be out with the rest of my dog family, but at least I'm no longer on a leash. Mom is going to get my pool out this weekend. I love water - can't wait! Russ! Man up! It's all good!
I try and get out in the morning to let the dogs run and play in the yard before it gets to hot for all of us. By 9:30 this morning Trekker was at the slider whining trying to get anyone to let him in. He didn't care that Shiloh and I were outside too. I hate to buy another thing before going to Arizona but we may have to try the small pool. Since Trekker doesn't like rain I think he might be like Russ and opt out and I'll have one more thing to get rid of. Let me know how the sprinkler works on Russ. That might be easier.
