One busy weekend!!

This weekend we had my sister in laws two 8 month old Jack Russell's.  Yes it was as manic as you think it would be but it was fun!!

They all got on really well.  Buddy the dominant pup is very into play fighting and wanted to be in charge but accepted that Molly was boss.  They had great fun play fighting and rolling in the mud!  

Little Spot is, to quote his mum 'a few sandwiches short of a picnic!' He's not into play fighting so when Molly tried to get him to join in he wasn't sure and ran inside!  Instead every time Molly sat on my lap he'd try and curl up with her.  The problem being Molly has been a lone dog 95% of her life so she's not sure about dogs cuddling up with her!  By Sunday morning he hadn't given up.  He waited until Molly was asleep on my lap then curled up beside me and stretched over with his nose and put it on her back!  It was so cute!  They stayed like that for an hour until she woke and was a bit stunned!! She turned around and went back to sleep so he moved over again and put his nose back on her! 

By Sunday tea time they'd all sorted their places and were getting on perfectly.  It was so sweet.  When they left she stood by the gate watching the car drive away.  It was heart breaking.  She came in and we made a big fuss of her.  She then collapsed on the sofa and slept until bed time!!  

This morning was fun.  She wouldn't get up so I left her a while, an hour and a half later this was her answer to getting up!  As you can see she wasn't keen.  To put it mildly!  Even now at 9am she's asleep on my lap after being dragged outside.  I think she loved having the boys over for a weekend but any more might finish her off!!!!

At least she's got some time to rest.  It's half term so Teri and I are off to meet up with my friend and her 18 month old son.  So while we have coffee and chat Molly can curl up at home and sleep!

The house seems quiet this morning, but I wouldn't want 2 JR puppies myself! They're mad!!! Lovely but mad! 

Time to get ready.  Poor Mol!! lol!

Bye xx

Does this dog ever wake up???!

I've noticed a lot of Molly's pictures are of her sleeping.  It's not that she's always asleep, its just the one time she's still so I can get a photo!! Here's a few more sleepy photos!:

Molly's 'bed'!

In the morning Molly goes back to bed while I go in the shower.  A few days ago she found a new place to sleep, the top of my bed!!


I can't lie flat so the head of my bed is raised up, then I've got a body pillow I use but during the day I put it in the gap between the top of the bed and the wall.  That's where Molly is!!!  The first time she did it she took her blanket up with her and burrowed under it and I couldn't find her!! I thought she'd got out some how then I saw two eyes peaking out from under the blanket!  This morning it was obviously too much effort to take her blanket with her!! lol!

Looking at that photo she looks tiny.  That's my pillow in front of her.  I forget she's smaller than our cats.

Molly's quilt and toys

Molly's Pet Pocket

Last month I found a great site on Facebook called Sarah's Crafty Sew n Sews.  My friend had got several things from her for her dog and they were all really good quality.  So I got Molly a quilt and two 'squggies' (tugga toys).  She has the quilt on the sofa and if she's cold she'll curl up on it next to me rather than on me because it's warmer for her.  Last week I ordered her a Pet Pocket, it arrived this afternoon.  As soon as I opened the outer bag she saw the material and dived at it!! So I put the pocket on the recliner and she jumped up and into it!!  That was 30 mins ago and she's not moved since so I'm guessing its a hit?! lol! Have to say its really soft and warm.  Perfect for cold days like today.  It's big enough for her to climb in and walk around in so hopefully I can put it on the bed and she can snuggle under it when she's cold.  She won't go under the quilt, which I guess is a good thing! I just worry she gets too cold.  This way if she does she can curl up in the pocket.

Bye x
