We're Back....

Gosh, I haven't been here in quite some time.  Life, life, life how busy we get!  As busy as I am there is no doubt my Ralphie and Lucy are the biggest part of my life.

Just a few updates on what's happening with my big boy and little girl...Ralphie is now 4 1/2 years old and Lucy is almost 2 years old...

Good news, Ralphie's weight is where it should be at.  He was peaking at 70 pounds and he's now 62.5.  I'm still feeding him pretty much the same (Taste of the Wild) but our long daily walks probably really helped.  He seems so much more active now.

Lucy is not liking dogs more and more these days.  I only take them to the less active dog park in the neighborhood.  If there are dogs in the park, we walk the hiking path until the other dogs leave.  I actually like it better this way.  Dog parks were stressing me out, not only the unpredictable dogs but some of the owners were scary.  LOL

Ralphie and Lucy have been picking up each other's habits.  Ralphie has been copying my vocal Lucy.  Yes, Ralphie at times can get a bit noisy like his sister.   Ralphie also picked up Lucy's bad habit of jumping up on me with excitement.  And Lucy picked up Ralphie's bad habit of eating twigs.  Lucy has full reign of the house now...no more crate.  She's learned Ralphie's good behavior which gained her more freedom.  However I do catch her in her crate now and then.  Their crates are their safety haven.  But gosh they do love each other bunches.

I feel so lucky to have Ralphie and Lucy.  They make my life complete.  Everything about them makes me happy, makes me smile, makes me laugh.  Simply said...Unconditional Love.
