It’s getting to be my favorite time of year. When the days are cool or even down right chilly, those days are the best. Something in that brisk air makes me feel frisky and young again. And we all know that I am not exactly a young dog anymore. I do have a birthday coming up. I turn 13 on November 22nd. Wonder if mom will fix me a special treat? I deserve it you know, because I am the best boy ever!

Yesterday was a really windy day and those winds took most of the remaining leaves from the trees. Let me show you the view from our evening walk. Mom calls this particular spot “the peaceful spot”. She thinks it one of the prettiest places on the property.

The rest of the hounds are doing fine. Piper just finished up her intermediate obedience classes. Mom wants to practice some before scheduling a Canine Good Citizen test. She thinks that a little extra time will help Piper pass the test.

Pixie is busy as usual. She’s on critter patrol constantly and seems determined to dig up every area that mom plants grass in 😕.

And Ugg, well Ugg is just Ugg. Grumpy and jealous are the words that best describes him😂.

Hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving, even if it isn’t like a normal Thanksgiving.
