Pupdate 03/18/13

The pups are getting quite a few opportunities to go outside on these nice (but windy!) days.  They are starting to prefer to go outside to 'do their business' as opposed to the litterboxes - always a good sign.  :)

Whenever we have a frond fall off our palm tree in the atrium, we give it to the dogs to play with  in the yard.  We recently supplied the adults with one of these 'organic palm toys'...Today, Aunt Spicy dragged it up out of the yard and on to the deck for the pups to play with.  You can see from the photos that they enjoyed it immensely.
