…if I am playing, raking leaves…….then Boucle wants to play too, with his ball…….

A beautiful fall Saturday afternoon, and I took advantage of it by raking leaves in the backyard.

Well, Boucle thought ….Jane has her toy (rake) and is going back and forth (with the rake), then I want to play too.  And he ran back and forth with his ball.

…sweetie-pie…….

….running ahead………and then turning and waiting………..

For our whole offleash walks, Boucle runs ahead, then turns……..waiting…….

Sometimes, he get lost in a sniff and is left behind me, then I turn…..and then I am……waiting…….

……happiness is sweetie-pie at the Lake……..

….loving the wind blowing through his curls……..loving the warmth of a mild  Sunday day……….

….loving the sound of the waves…….loving the pebbles under his feet………

….Boucle at the Lake on Sunday………

….the indoor chase…..

Yesterday was a typical November day, and aside from walks, Boucle did not have much exciting outdoor time.  Just the occasional squirrel to chase.

So he pulled out a toy from his toy basket, and I was willing to chase him while he had it…..

He has figured out how to keep me away from his toy, while I am chasing him….just slip in between the legs of the diningroom chairs and table, and I will try to coax him out.  He will stubbornly stay, until I get tired and walk away.  But of course, if I am not chasing him…that is no fun.  So he will come out, after I have walked away, and then look at me, with the hope…and expectation that I will play the game again.  🙂

…sweetie-pie enjoying blue skies …..finally!…….

Finally the first peek of a blue sky in what seems like over a month.  Apparently we had 27  out of 31 days of rain in October.  Boucle and I played fetch and enjoyed the first bits of blue.  Hopefully we will see some more blue over the next day.

…sweetie-pie…….

…Happy Halloween!…….

With all the rain, Boucle’s haircut never got beyond this.  In fact, it was starting to rain again as we took this picture.

Boucle in a Beatle’s haircut, and a skull and crossbones tuxedo.

This is the most that I have every decorated him.  In fact, it is a first, so I chose something in which he would at least look dignified.

Happy Halloween – lots of warmth and licks , Best Jane & Boucle! 🙂
