Visiting Danes

I only had 17 blog posts in the month of March. That's a very light month, but there's been a lot of non-dog stuff going on. Today was the first day of my retirement but I still put in few hours of work (as a contractor now), and had a lot of other stuff going on so I didn't get out for a walk even though the weather was perfect for it. 

We've had two visiting Great Danes since last Wednesday, Madelyn and Quinnlyn, and Killian came on Sunday so our pack weight more than doubled recently. It was short-lived however, because the two girls went back home today. Killian (one of Della's boys) is with us until next Monday. He's the sweetest giant puppy and it's been very nice to have some canine giants around once again. Here's some recent pictures of the big dogs and some others too.

Maddie and Quinnie were initially scheduled to come several weeks ago, but this was much better timing because the weather has been beautiful since they've been here. They stayed out in Daneland and got lots of pasture time as well.

This is Woody at an adoption event last Sunday. Ted was there too but I didn't get any pictures of him somehow.

Both girls got a lot of exercise and were great to have around but they were very happy to see their person come back for them today. I bet they did some power napping when they got home.

Killian has been great to have around. He has full bedroom privileges and Bailey was gracious enough to let him have the big bed. He enjoyed a nice roll in the grass while Bailey and Woody ran around.

Notice all the cut grass in the pasture? That's one of the things that's been keeping me busy. I did another mowing session this evening with Woody as supervisor.
