Chloe got her first summer cut today. Here she is before going to the groomers.
Here she is after the groomers.
Crazy Weather!
Hope you got a chance to get out and enjoy the crazy temperatures, Mississauga reached 24.3 °C on Good Friday. Here is Claudia, her friend and Chloe hanging out on the front lawn.
Chloe is enjoying the good weather, she has been especially interested in the birds. It must be the Cocker Spaniel in her.
We headed out to Mom and Dad’s place on Good Friday. Chloe travels well in the car, her and Angela are ready to go.
Sara and Brent brought Pretzel with them, so Chloe had someone to play with.
Danny had the kids out at the park playing soccer. Claudia taking a break.

Things were going well until Danny stepped on Alex’s foot with his industrial soccer shoes.
Here is Chloe telling Pretzel to wait his turn to look out Grandma’s window.

Hey wait a minute I think there is enough room on the stool for both of us.

Chloe Update
It’s been awhile since I’ve done a Chloe update. She is up to 14 lbs, and Susan thinks she has stopped growing, I think she still has a little more to go. She started out in the bed, but she slowly ended up sleeping on the floor.
She loves her bucket, this one has cracked, but she still plays with it everyday. We’ll have to look for a new one in the summer.
What little snow we got this winter sure liked to stick to Chloe. She would come in covered in snow.
Chloe and the Snowman
The girls built a snowman on the back deck and Chloe sat there and barked at it for awhile.
Eventually she stopped barking and decided she was going to chew on his arm.
Chloe and the Snow
Chloe is still adjusting to the snow. The first morning it really snowed she spent a lot of time running around trying to catch the snowflakes. She digs, she eats the snow and she pees wherever she wants. We shovelled off the deck and some of the grass area for her. Since there is still snow on the deck she hasn’t quite figured out that under the snow is the deck. Next time it snows we’ll have to shovel just a trail for her to get out to the grass. Claudia shovelled the deck and more of the deck is showing, so now she goes right out to the grass.
She comes in from the outside and she has snow all stuck to her beard.

Chloe likes to look out the window, especially when someone goes out the door.

Chloe’s Sweater
I made Chloe a sweater to keep her a little warmer in the snow. I had made Coco a sweater like this years ago. Here is Chloe modelling her sweater.
It is made from a hockey sock. Not having any lying around the house, I had to go buy one. We picked the Detroit Red Wings colours since it was closest to the Team Canada colours. Our other choices were the Habs (never!), the Kings (black on black, we’d never see her at night) or the Leafs (didn’t want her buddies to make fun of her).
Another Play date for Chloe
Chloe had another buddy over to the house. Karen who was our sitter for the girls and now comes over and lets Chloe out during the day has put their house on the market. They were having a couple of showings tonight, so they asked if Hailey could come over for a couple of hours. Susan and I had a School Council meeting, but the girls were home. Karen has brought Hailey over during the day when she lets Chloe out, so they get along. Of course Chloe being the puppy she is, gets all spazzy and is always bugging Hailey.
Chloe waiting for her picture to be taken, but Hailey wasn’t co-operating.
Chloe and Bella
We went to Ikea for the breakfast combo today. The breakfast combo is the $1.00 breakfast and because we’re there we inevitably buy the rest of the combo. The best way to keep the combo down is to take the Yaris. While we were there Gillian received a text from Sarah to see if we could let Bella out through the day. We thought why not just bring Bella over and her and Chloe can play, or rather Chloe could bug Bella all day. Eventually Chloe settled down and she followed Bella around.
I had them outside for some photos. I asked them to look at me.
Then look up and to the left.
Look away from each other.
Look at each other.
Kodak Moment
Claudia and Chloe fell asleep watching tv tonight.
Chloe Back Home
I was off today for Remembrance Day, so I went to the school for their Remembrance Day ceremony. They do a great job and the last couple of years they have invited a bag piper to participate. Chloe went in yesterday for her surgery. She was spayed and had her back dew claws removed.
She was very happy to see me when I picked her up. She stayed overnight at the vets.
She is doing well, we opted for the laser surgery, so her recovery should be quicker and there are no stitches.
