Well this weekend, like most at the Beavan compound, was go-go-go. Having a popular dog is a struggle as we were on her schedule all weekend. She managed to pack in play time with 5 different dogs this weekend.
Thursday was her training course which meant play time with Kona! The slight issue with having two dogs who love each other as much as these two do is that training becomes a little tougher on the people who have to hold them back from licking each other while they're supposed to be doing figure 8s. They tuckered each other out and thus began Anchor's fun filled weekend.
Friday we had dinner with Melissa and David at her parents house since they were dog watching, Melissa's bull dog Boomer was not too impressed with Anchor at first (certainly not love at first sight) but after a while they were frolicking and having a blast with Boomer's little brother Henry. Anchor was a big fan of those two and slept the whole way home.
Saturday we took Anchor to play with my parents Pomeranian, he's quite the bully so Anchor just amused herself by running laps around him since he couldn't catch up.
That night Brian and I dressed up and headed out for his work winter social. We had a BLAST! We ate good food, socialized, and danced into the night. Tuckering Anchor out the days before was beneficial to both of our aching heads the next morning.
Sunday we ran a few errands and took Anchor to her weekly play time with Kona. Muddy grass + two hyper puppies in full-on play mode = long overdue baths for our girl.
Since Monday was MLK day we had the day off from work, we took Anchor to play with Brian's other dog Toby (who is currently at his parents until we have a fence and space for him to run, he's not much of a leash dog) and we let her off of the leash for what was probably only 3 minutes but felt like 3 hours to me. Small steps, people.
We can home and I made some homemade sushi that didn't turn out half bad! California rolls for starters, I will share when I conquer something that's a real feat.
Speaking of feats - remember that dog who was not allowed on the furniture, someone (**cough, Brian, cough**) caved when she curled up and tried to hide so we couldn't see her on the couch. $40.00 dog bed, who needs it.
Today is the first of Brian and I's 3 day wee and St. Mary's county is supposed to get up to 9" of snow today, fingers crossed everyone stays safe in that mess!
