The night before Christmas BarBee and nothing was stirring...



Pup's first Christmas! What a Gong Show!
She wanted to get in on every gift opening!!

Not Kimmiq's first Rodeo.
She new exactly which ones contained the Uber Yummy Christmas Puppy Treats and taught Ila what to look for!

Ila appears to be rather pleased with her Christmas Pickle:



Fun Times Indeed!

Very much likes that Christmas Pickle!



And her Christmas saw one ear UP!





We suspect it won't be long now before her other Bat Wing stands up too...

Cheers,

Ad Hoc Toys are The Best!!



That ear is up, then the tip drops, then up. Rinse & Repeat at this stage...





Cheers,

First Bath Day (and not too damn impressed!)







Brushing is Cool though...

And after all that excitement:



She sure got all puppy fur soft again.
After drying, she simply had to come out and join me and Kimmiq while I put this on the grill - 2.5 lbs of Alberta Prime:

Their matching Walking Harnesses showed up yesterday:

Toy Time with both ears UP!

Ila could not believe her eyes when she wandered out back yesterday.

Hanging from the back balcony was the first deer she had ever seen:



She was very nervous and full of trepidation at first.
But when offered a little taste, she got right into the thick of things:







Under Kimmiq's watchful eye of course:



Butchering the second one today.
Methinks she won't be shy at all... LOL

Cheers,

As predicted, Ila was waiting not so patiently at the back door yesterday.
Seems she has taken on a bit of a yen for "helping" with the deer butchering process:



And of course was promptly rewarded for doing so:







I believe she thinks this should be an every day occurrence!
This morning she was again at the back door, and seemed astonished that I did not wander out to hang up another one!
LOL
