Blues begone. Elroy has his eyes on you. In truth, he is just waiting his turn to fail an earthdog test. He doesn't know he failed, though, nor do we care. A good time was had by all.

Cuteness plus!

Love this picture of a roo-a-sing as I call it. I coax my Grady into a grumble song too. Always makes me smile when he tips back his head and starts singing..

It's hard work being a puppy.

Oh Atticus! You are something else.

One consoling thought is that we plan to redo the whole thing, so the dog yard will get moved and expanded and the present dust bowl will be pavers or something. I’d like to think it will happen soon, and the new fencing is here and taking up a lot of our parking. Unfortunately, things happen very slowly in this DIY household.

Calypso I feel your pain..drought here also and I decided that I was not going to waste water, and the grass although patchy is slowly making a come back, with two dogs that peed on the yard through last winter with not a lot of snow happening .I love my dogs way more than silly grass.

They do make a great sound....for him.....not so much for me!

Atticus after a hard day of play.

They are a lot stronger than they look - er, sound - for sure. We do keep an eye on them and remove if they get punctured or split, as the edges can be sharp.

But they brighten the yard!

The thin bottles do collapse in time, but dogs seem to like the crackling noise, and I’ve seen very old ones that are still intact.

Trying to photograph our Cairns against the drought stricken dog yard is pretty discouraging. The grass is usually scruffy at best, but at least it’s green. This year, with the desperate water shortage in our area, we couldn’t justify watering. Dirt and dead grass make for a very dreary photo background.

Autumn days, garden cleanup beginning in this part of the world, both pups enjoying cooler days, keeping me company.

Addie is wonderful. Thanks for all the photos and the adventure into Rutledge’s domain. Made me laugh.

Our Barney is three years old and his ears are both down. We had two previous Cairns and their ears took a while, but both came up. Although there is no hope for my Barney's ears, he is so cute with them down. We did not have the heart to force a change what mother nature made.

A photo a day keeps the blues away. I think this may be my next contest entry

Precious face and expression.

Some dogs resist sweaters, because their fur can get pushes the wrong direction. For non-smooth coated dogs, the sweater should be a bit loose.

With Cairns, aren’t they all special? I do like the cinnamon bun picture, too.

Nothing special just a daily moment

Right now, U.S. veterinarians rely on three types of drugs to kill the hookworms, but the parasites appear to becoming resistant to all of them. Dog hookworms can also infect humans.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sciencedaily/plants_animals/dogs/~4/Ootjm6V9yaUView the source article
