An Update and a Happy Almost Birthday - Peaches & Bailey

Remember this post - Yes, We Had Puppies. . . from last Fall when I was making a difficult decision to revisit my intake policy on puppies?
Those two little darling puppies are now about to turn 1 year old.  They came together for a visit this week and what a day they had! Peaches will be turning one year old in a day or so while Bailey is still a month away from his birthday in July.
Did they remember their past meeting?  Oh, who knows? Did they get on alright? Oh man did they ever!

We also had little Suzy Q and Countess River visiting that day. What a bunch of fun they had. Peaches started off a little shy but was being very polite meeting the senior girls. 

Peaches - "Hi, do I know you?"

After an uneventful individual meeting of Lady May and the other girls, we headed out doors to wait for young Squire Bailey to arrive.

River- "Okay I think we'll accept you little girl. You pass our inspection."

Peaches remained subdued and allowed the girls to completely check her out. When they were done an invitation to play was given and happily accepted.  So polite.

River- "Are you Ready?"
Peaches- "You bet!"

Before Bailey arrived Peaches already had plenty of time to feel confident in playing with Countess River. Suzy Q can be a bit bossy at times but Peaches knew how to avoid her and handled herself just fine.

 When Bailey arrived he was his perfect young gentleman self and gave Peaches time to feel comfortable with him before he set upon an invitation to 'go wild'.  He showed Peaches he was most interested in the sprinkler and Peaches seemed even more comfortable.

Not long after, the invitation to play was given and the three new friends were zooming around the yards having the time of their lives. Zooming and dashing around is the kind of play Peaches wanted this day and both Bailey and River were happy to oblige.

Time to take the lead off Peaches and let her go!

and go she did!
Their body structure has definitely grown and they have a years worth of experiences behind them now. Their happy disposition and ability to enjoy a morning of romping and playing together was sure fun to watch. I'm really looking forward to future visits with these two.

 Here's a little reminder of one year ago - Yes, We Had Puppies. . .

 And this day June 13th 2023

 Happy almost birthday you two!

We get cookies right?

Did they remember their past meeting?  Oh, who knows? Did they get on alright? You bet they did!
