Tennis Ball Wars

Last week I was able to get out of work around lunch time & sit outside with the puppies for the afternoon enjoying some amazing Houston winter weather.



Mia loves to be outside- she just watches all the birds near and far.



The dogs had been cooped up for a few days with the bad weather, so they were feisty and rowdy in the fresh air outside.



Round and round...just glad it was finally outside this time.



Growl
Snap
Snarl
Spin
Bark



Mia has learned to crinkle her lips & show her teeth quite well. It's hysterical...



Then I got the tennis ball out & they chased that around for a while.



Until Mia was distracted by the birds again...



And Zoe was upset at me for taking pictures instead of throwing the toys.



Do all dogs sit around with the ball hanging out on side of their mouth?
Both Mia and Zoe do it all the time.



Too precious!





Here is a quick video of all the mayhem and rough-housing around the yard.



Then 20 minutes later they are curled up on the couch together like this...



...or this enjoying a nap and trying to stay warm.
