Angels and Demons

Yesterday, we had moments of sun that the dogs enjoyed by basking on the front porch. Awwww, how cute...

Do you see the dirt near them? That's from when they dug up my grape starter and played tug-of-war with it THE DAY AFTER I PLANTED IT! Oh yeah, they dug up the two raspberry plants that day, too. We have almost a half-acre of yard, sticks and toys all over the place, and they go for the three plants we had just barely gotten in the ground...Actually, they weren't even in the ground, they were in planters.

Then, there's today. It's been kind of muddy lately with light snowfall and all that. When I called them in this morning, they were playing in one of our unplanted garden plots. Thursday looked like this:
Trillian was just as filthy, but because of her black coat, it didn't show up as well. You can't really see it, but Thursday's back was matted with mud, too. I took this photo in the bathroom as the bathwater was running. That's why she is cowering by the door and looking terrified.
I think evolution has ensured that all puppies are cute for a reason...

lol, our dogs look the same way in the bathroom when they KNOW baths are coming! :P I also dread the rain & mud because dogs (and kids!) track it in every day like crazy. :P That stinks about your plants though!! How cool to do a grape starter! Did someone give it to you?
