We all get a little crazy sometimes...

"I thought there were only two of them..."

Those are the exact words I heard from three different groups of people after standing in the yard for only about 15 minutes this afternoon. I shouldn't be surprised by how many people notice these funny looking little dogs I suppose. My house, or more precisely my dogs, are a bit of a fixture in the neighborhood. I took the opportunity to take a few pictures of the pack while they were enjoying the late afternoon sun.


My camera seems to have been having trouble focusing. I suspect it wasn't expecting the patches of bright sun that accented several of the shots. Being an Oregon camera, it was expecting clouds today. But I got a couple nice shots of the C-myste girls.

There was some interference with the process. The Dude was being a pest lurking around in the background, sticking his ear in other dog's shots, and sticking his nose in Alice's ear whenever possible.

It has been interesting having four dogs in this little tiny house. Not a bad experience at all but it has had some trying moments. I'm pretty much trapped in the bathroom if I let them follow me in when I shower. It cost me the runner in the laundry room but I have determined that Kacy has a potty emergency at 9:30am every day. No problem, I got my kennel back from the neighbors so now Chaucer happily keeps her company outside while I'm gone. Alice has been supremely tolerant of Chaucer's advances for which I am grateful. Everyone has been getting along fantastically really. In fact, the cats haven't been bothered one bit by the new additions. Access to their litter box is now gated (Alice) but that's not big deal. I even caught the ancient cat (Panda) cleaning Kacy's ears this morning. What excellent critters!
