Shadow Monday with Pepper the Boxer

Shadow's niece was here for the weekend. They had fun!
Pepper's a two-year-old purebred Boxer. Her owner is our daughter.


She "helped" Grandma Laurie with chores. Pepper liked licking up spilled grain from Pete's bucket.

Auntie Shadow is eight, but Pepper brings out her inner-puppy.


Pooped out Pups after a day of play.


Next morning our daughter "D" arrived for pick up. Pepper was happy to see her.

So was Shadow, who ran up the walkway and barreled into Auntie D.

Happy Doggies!

Inside the house, both dogs demanded Laurie's attention.


Shadow rolled around, repeatedly, and jumped back up.

Pepper just stared at her.

FINALLY worn out, best buds plopped down on the rug. We all took a break.
