IT IS A MONDAY

Today was the beginning of the 4th of July vacations. We had lots of new faces to join our play groups. We had daycare newcomers Prince,William and Tommy along with Benjamin and Bailey. Carly, Mia and Shadow made a new friend in Maple. We also had some old friends return Godfrey and the very first dog to stay at Dig It, Molly. Mickey who has been here the longest at present gets along with just about everyone had lots of barking at the new faces and the one that left today. Chewy and Mack had to go home as well as Milo. Roxie and Rambo had lots of fun time with Kole, Ashley, Naomi and Desiree. It is so great that summer is here and we can enjoy our kids helping out. Lori had time for everyone but especially enjoyed the rough and tough antics of Kira and Kayco. Grandma Susie had lots of lap room for Max and Frenchie. Jeannie and myself are ready to call it a day and looking forward to the surprises tomorrow might bring.

Hot Summer Sunday

Another end to a busy week. The hot summer days are here and we all feel it. Mickey thinks he would rather stay inside. His friends wanted him to play but... Turner, Carly, Shadow, Milo and Mia had a great time. They ran and ran and ran, after which they discovered how much fun could be had in the Dig It Hole. The idea of everyone digging in the same place at once was a wonderful time for all. In two of the playyards we installed misters for more cooling water fun, Roxie and Rambo think they are great. They wanted Rosco and Jessie to join them in the pool but, they would have no part in the water games. Kayco and Kira had a great time trying to decide which of the two of them would be the faster in a race. Our most sedate members of the kennel at this time are Max and Frenchy they just enjoy being held. Chewy and Mac lost two of their play group when Sierra and Sasha went home. Lola and Molly had to say goodbye today along with Rosco, Jessie, Turner and our biggest guest Buster. Before leaving everyone had a Happy 4th of July portrait, we hope you check them out on our Flickr account later this week. It is the end of the day and the end of the week and we almost at the end of the month, we are all dog tired. More tomorrow.

Super Playday!

Tired! That's the word for tonight! We got several new dogs in today and EVERYONE played so well and SO LONG! It should be a nice quiet night here as we are all pooped!

One CRAZY day!

WOW what a day, I am glad its over! Our phones worked only 1/4 of the time today, they would cut off in the middle of conversation! Our computer mouse bit the dust, our chief pooper scooper played hooker and we got in 7 new dogs! Shadow, a super cute mix who looks just like my childhood dog Momo. Milo, a BEAUTIFUL yellow Lab show pup, who comes for visits a lot. Mia, the sweetest German Shepard pup, Rosco and Jessie two Rat Terriers who seem to get along with everyone. Sasha and Sierra, two super white, super fluffy American Eskimo's and Lizzy the best little Beagle who came for day care with her buddy Bailey. Everyone played well, and we had some great play groups going. The weather held out all day and by 6 the dogs were POOPED! We got our mister systems up and running today, so that helps out in the heat of the day. Anza and Dozer left us today. They were here for a long time, and the place seems a little sad tonight!

Stormy Thursday

Once again today start off beautiful! Sunshine and fresh clean air. Kira came today, a lovely Boxer. Chewy and Mac also arrived, they have been here before, so they came in knowing how everything works and they headed straight for the play yard! Lola another regular came for a visit today, she is the cutest thing EVER! A very sweet LITTLE Maltese. Kayco, Kira and Carley had a blast running until their tongues hit the ground. Mickey just wants to play and could care less who he is playing with, his motto "RUN and let me chase you"!! Molly and Lola had a great time in the playroom, and Anza and Dozer hit the dig it hole for some serious "diggin". Bailey had a great time until the storms started back up. Tomorrow is another day and lets home the bad storms are over for a time.

Bad, Bad, Bad Weather Wednesday

Toady started off nice, BUT by mid day all heck broke loose in the sky! We had some serious thunderstorms roll thru. Poor dogs were stuck in the kennels for fear we would loose power and we would all be running around in the dark! For the most part everyone did ok. We got a new girl in today, Carly a BEAUTIFUL 9 month old Rhodesian Ridgeback. maybe I'm a little bias since Carly was born at my house! She settled in nicely and made friends with Benjamin and Bailey. The storms are starting back up, some I am off the computer! Make sure you check out the flickr account for the pics!

Bones and Balls Tuesday

Today was a beautiful day until late in the afternoon. Just a few dogs in house meant EXTRA, EXTRA playtime in the yards. We got new tennis balls, so it was play fetch till ya drop, that would be us dropping and not the dogs. I think they could have played all darn day! As the weather got bad everyone came inside for a special treat....big beef bones and OH BOY did they enjoy them! I'm not talking little bones I'm talking big ones, in fact I think the bones were bigger then three of the dogs! Everyone is tired so it should be a nice quiet night for Lori who sleeps here tonight.

SUNSHINE!

Today was a beautiful Florida day! The sun was hot, the breeze was cool and the dogs had a blast! Luke went home early, but was able to get a few hours of play in this morning with Kayco. Ben and Bailey came for day care and had a blast along with Mickey and Kayco. We let Mickey, Dozer, Anza and little Molly out this evening and they played wonderfully together and should sleep well tonight!

REALLY Wet Sunday!

Water, water and more water. It has rained again most of the day. Simon and Sam, Raja and Turner, Hiro, Bella and Pebbles all went home. They played hard, got wet and went home tired! The rest of the gang has played but been lazy. No pictures on Flickr today, but the pic of the week is up on the website. Check it out www.digitkennel.com

Rainy Saturday

Today brought us- Sam and Simon two black labs with the energy of 6! Turner and Raja neighbors who come for visits and love to play. Pebbles a very cute little poodle cross, she's learning fast that playing with others is FUN. The weather has been HORRIBLE with thunderstorms on and off all day, but we have managed to get everyone out to play in the breaks. Woody went home , he was happy to see his parents BUT he had a great time playing fetch and I am sure he will sleep good for a few days! We let Mickey (who we have nicknamed Mickey the Mouth) play with the 2 new girls Pebbles and Molly. He would stop at their kennels to say "hey pretty ladies, lets have some fun" so we let them! Anza and Dozer seem to thrive in the rain and could/would play all night if we let them. Kayco the Boxer girl is not very social with other dogs, so she must settle on playing ball with us two legged critters, but she seems to enjoy it. Hiro and Luke went out today but Luke had surgery a short while ago and all the playing with Woody has pooped him out, poor Hiro had to run and run and run and run all by himself, all the while trying hard to get Luke to play. Bella the pretty mix has a eye injury and is on private playtime, she is not very happy about it. She wants to play sooo bad with the others, but safety first.

Crazy Friday!

What looked like it was going to be a slow weekend with just 7 dogs, grew fast to 15. Today we got Bella a very pretty mix. Woody a dig handsome Choc. Lab,Luke a young Golden who is FULL of himself! Then we have Hiro a very playful Wheaton Terrier who come to visit us often and Molly a little Lhasa who thinks she is a giant dog trapped in a wee little body! Five more will come in tomorrow. Its been busy for us trying to find the right dogs to play together but I think we have their groups set. Kayco, Anza, Dozer and Mickey have been here for a while and do great in their group, so tomorrow will be lots of playing around here. Look for new pics on the Flickr account!

Its been a nice quiet day today. We have 7 dogs in. They play nicely and most have enjoyed the water today. We were sweeping inside kennels and had oldies rock and roll on. Kayco and Anza tried to sing along, we turned the station. Trust me, a Boxer and Rat Terrier can NOT sing! Storm clouds are building, so I'm sure we will have to cut afternoon playtime short, its so hot I don't think anyone will mind. Lori got a ton of really nice pics this AM, so check out the Flickr account!

Kayco came in today. What a beauty! A Boxer female who's Dad is Military. She will be here for a while. We have introduced her to Mickey, another Military pooch. Look for pics on our flickr account later tonight!

Dig It

This is a first here at Dig It Kennels! We hope this blog will allow our customers to feel more secure while we care for their pups!

Today Hildy went home early! Her bath from lastnight did'nt last long as we have had rain all night and early morning. Mom came to get her and she was still wet and dirty from her morning romp!

Anza and Dozer think the place belongs to them. Anza is a little mouthy with the new dogs and people. Dozer could care less, his motto "PLAY WITH ME"!!!!!!!

The "girls" as we call them are having a blast! Looks like all the running and playing are helping them get fit and shed a few unwanted pounds! They leave tomorrow, so play hard today girls!
