How is everyone's dog(s) doing? Anything new going on? Any problems, funny stories or things to share?

Yeah I know......For me it is crunch time before graduation. Hey we are a team here. We have to beat out the other dog room sthat have more posts. We aren't doing as bad as some but we need to take the Shih Zhu or whatever spot.....Let's try to take what is our back, which is 1st place. I'll try to get some photos up in a few.
By the way, how are you doin'? And anyone else that reads this? What is your weather like? Is it outdoor weather.....It has been like 85 almost everyday here....

Well, let's see....the weather has been beautiful here (Chesapeake Bay) but it ends tomorrow with nasty cold rain - ugh! The cherries and ornamental pears and everything else is busting into bloom (lucky me, I'm not allergic!). At work, we had a kid go back home with mom yesterday and got a new kid in the house an hour later. Work takes almost all energy out of me, but I come home and there are my two ancient girls - Amber and Natasha - and they are happy to see me and love going out and sniffing the bunny trails and turtle tracks and just spring in general. At 13 and big dogs, they are old crocks to be sure, but spring weather has put spring back into their steps.

Just wanted to help spice up the board!
Tyler and I are doing well. It is really weird, I've only had him for 4 months and it is like we already basically understand eachother. I can oddly tell what he is going to do or his reactions in most situations and he kind of understands me.
Every morning I get up around 5 am to get ready for school. He looks at me from the bed (yes, I know its bad he sleeps in my bed...) and slowly follows me around. Then I feed him, let him outside, sometimes if I have time I play with him or take him for a little stroll, and then go to put him in the cage. But, he knows what Im' doing and he does everythign he can to distract me. First, he runs to the door repeatedly like he has to go to the bathroom, then I come and he jumps and starts licking my hand and playing. One morning, just before I was going to put him in the cage, he liek brought me all of his toys almost saying "If I give you this will you stay here/not put me ni the cage... okay... what about this? This?" Then I herd him into my room, and he walks into teh cage, a little defeated and curls up to sleep. It is adorable though.
Little things like that make a world of difference to me. I never fail to walk out of the house, laughing at the antics of my silly puppy. Then, when I come home (sadly I just started a new job which has me workign 22 hours a week plus 35 hours of highschool), he greets me and acts as if its been weeks! And then again he brings me each one of his toys, picks his favorite, and we play.
I hope everyone else is doing alright and having fun! Michigan is finally starting to get warm! (Now that I've said it though it will probably snow!) Spring Break starts in two days so I'm a little anxious!

Isn't it lovely? Always nice to be missed so much and greeted so enthusiastically. And the bond you mention (imply, I guess) where you know your dog and your dog knows you....that is why I doubt I could live without an animal or three.
