Mr. Indiana

Funny Feet

As I was sitting on the couch last night, Indy decided to sit on my lap. At one point I looked down, and this is what I saw.

Too funny!!

Sunny Day Walks

On Easter afternoon, Indiana and I went for a nice afternoon walk. There were LOTS of things in bloom, and it made for the most beautiful walk. Well, unless you count the next day, when I had revenge of the allergies. In spite of that, we really did enjoy ourselves!

Fall Walk

It was such a beautiful weekend! Late Sunday afternoon, I took Indiana out for a nice, long walk. We walked until dark. Indiana discovered leaves on his walk, and he was quite fascinated with them! He loped through every pile and every ditch that was full of them. Check it out:

We also walked back through the park and by the horse pasture. I was SO excited, when the horse came back up to visit with us again. She let me pet her for a long while. Next walk, I'm going to take an apple with me. Check out how pretty she is!

It was SUCH a nice weekend! I hope I get to get out this coming weekend too!

Weekly Walks

It's finally dry enough that I've been able to walk Indiana all week, in addition to my daily runs. He's really enjoyed it, and we've added to the length of the walk too. We've also been going across the highway to the city park. While there, Indy got to see horses for the first time.

We've also met some new furfriends along the way too.

I sure hope the rain stays away, so we can keep up our walks! Everyone have a great weekend!

Wanna Take A Nap?

Casey took this shot Monday afternoon. We'd just gotten in from the dr.'s office. Casey had to go in, because we were afraid that he had the flu. Thankfully, he didn't. For some reason I was REALLY sleepy, when we got home. So the following is what took place. I have some of the best snugglers anywhere!

Tail Wagger

I was messing around with the video camera on my iPhone the other night. Indiana wanted to show his impressive Turbo Tail!! Here are the results, even though a little dark:

Mobile Pic Goodness

One of my favorite things about my iPhone is that it makes decent pictures for posting. Here are a couple more shots taken over the weekend.

"Ear"resistible Ears Contest

Our furfriends over at Munchkin Memoirs, Bentley and Lexus are have a cool contest It's called:

So, I discussed it with Shingo, Molly, and Indiana and they felt that I should enter their AWESOME ears. So, here goes:

Here's Shingo's entry:

And here's Molly's entry:

How could I resist entering them, with such cute ears!! If you know of some "Ear"resistible Ears", head on over to Munchkin Memoirs and enter.

Lazy Sunday Afternoon

We were all just hanging around the house this afternoon, and Casey and I decided to make some new pictures of the gang.

Indiana and Shingo hanging out on the couch.

Cuteness!!

Casey made these pictures last week, and they sure are cute! I just had to share them with you guys. Indiana has SUCH a personality!

I Wanted to Just Die...

during my circuit training class tonight. But now that I've cooled off, I feel pretty great! I always dread it beforehand, but it always makes me feel better. I had a pretty good day at work today. I spent a lot of time catching up with my students and also showing the gang Indiana's 1st birthday pictures. I think this one

just might be my very favorite. I'm about to feed the puppies the very last of the cake. They've been enjoying it, since Sunday. The cake was homemade, so it has no preservatives. The shelf life is very short. Then again, no dog treats ever sit around here long enough to spoil...homemade or not.

Indiana's First Birthday

Today was Indiana's first birthday. We celebrated in style with a party and doggie cake. All of the dogs had a GREAT time, and we did too. Even Grandma came over for the festivities. Here's the shots from the party.

Snuggling On A Cold Night

On cold nights, Ramsay just loves to cuddle up with Indiana. I'm not exactly sure when they got so close, but they sure do love to cuddle.

All Is Well

It's been a long day of vacation today. We left the house to take Indiana to Dr. K's around 7:15 this morning. We got him there and settled in by 8:00. We grabbed some breakfast and headed back to Mom's to have coffee. At lunch today, Mom and I met with my oldest friend, Jennifer, and her mother for lunch at Casa Mexicana. We had a great time visiting and catching up. It was so much fun. After lunch, I just came back home and lounged around for a bit. It wasn't long, until Dr. K's office called to let us know that Indiana was doing fine and was ready to come home. We picked him up and got him back home. He's still really sleepy and a little slow moving. He did have a few cookies, a few kibbles of dog food, and a dollop of peanut butter, so nothing is wrong with his appetite. We have to go back in 10 days to have his stitches removed. He's resting comfortably on the couch right now. Shingo really missed him today. He was really out of sorts the whole time he was gone. I have a feeling that Indiana will feel much better in the morning. The vet tech told me I could use some Neosporin on him, if I need to. We'll see. I'm just so glad that he did o.k. and it's over now.

My Big Boy

My sweet, little Indiana Bones has grown up on me. He's going tomorrow morning to be neutered. I would have had it done several months ago, but I just didn't feel like it with the Bell's Palsy. Indy will be a year old the first week of January. I can't believe how fast this first year with him has flown by. It's time for him to go though. All of his little boy hormones are making him a bit bossy with Shingo. We have lots of growling from time to time, and this will fix the problem. I'm feeling a little guilty about taking him tomorrow. It's just the worrying mother in me, I guess. All the rest of the animals in the house are all fixed. He's the last dog. The three youngest kittens haven't been fixed yet, but they won't be a full six months, until next month. They'll all go then. Anyway, I've been giving him lots of extra love and cookies tonight. I had to take up all of his food and water an hour or so ago, but he ate really well until then. Anyway, I know that Dr. K will take good care of him. He will be in the BEST possible hands. I'll just worry anyway, until I have him back home safe and sound tomorrow night. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the best. I'll give you guys an update, when we get him back home tomorrow.

A Visit With Santa Paws

This past Saturday, Bedford County Animal Control held its annual Christmas Open House. Since Indiana wasn't even born last Christmas, this is his first Christmas. I decided to take him to visit with Santa Paws. All of the proceeds from the pictures were donated to the Shelbyville-Bedford County Spay/Neuter Committee. Get ready for tooth rot....
