Our resident chipmunk has been Riley’s Great White Whale and it’s been a lonely chase. Until now.
In a previous post I expressed some concern about the fate of momma deer. Hadn’t seen her in a while. This is her sauntering across the road in front of our house. And I believe she has started using the hiking trail.
With Barb in Florida for 10 days, the dogs had to make do with time in her chair.
At 5 months+, Jessie finally starting to calm down a little. But the urge to bite the hand that feeds you is strong.
When the coveted Barb Chair is taken, Jessie makes do with a nearby place in the sun.
When the Alpha Dog returns, it’s all aboard!
And after their nap, some outside play time (video).
Jessie likes being close to the Alpha Dog (Barb) and the Beta Dog (Riley)
They don’t stay a puppy long. Jessie will soon be too big for her puppy bed and I’m in no hurry for this phase to end.
With a new puppy there’s a great photo op about every 5 minutes. But they’re puppies for such a short time, right? 
Only thing better than a Golden Retriever puppy (12 weeks) is a pup with a buddy to show her the ropes. Riley is delighted to have someone around who speaks dog. Riley not entirely thrilled to share her chairs with the new pup but is making the best of the situation.
