The other big event around here today was finding a home for momma dobie, Padme. She's still here for now, I'm going to take her out to meet the resident dogs in her prospective new home one day early next week, but I'm quite confident and content with this new home.
I started the day about 6:00 a.m., fed all the dogs, fed both sets of puppies, cleaned indoor and outdoor puppy spaces, watered all the pots in all the container gardens (that's a lot), made egg muffins, and then got ready for the noon visitors. By the time they were all gone I was pretty well wiped out for the day. I did a second feeding of the puppies and then put the shar pei pups inside the cool puppy shed for the rest of the afternoon. Everyone got their water replaced with fresh, cool, well water, and I went back inside where I failed to nap.
I got a lot of play pictures today. I'm still amazed at the number of female dogs we have who all get along. With Maya gone, Della is the sole, undisputed ruler of the dog pack.

I loved this trio — Padme, Bailey, and Mercy

Della in bed as I tried but failed to nap this afternoon.
Bailey was scared by the overhead ceiling fan but then jumped up and snuggled very close to me.
