Mmmm Ice Cream
I had to run out quickly this evening to scope out the facility that we are visiting on Tuesday for a therapy dog demo event. I threw the dogs in the back of the car for the ride, and while we were on our way home (after driving aimlessly for quite a while, only to discover that we had passed the facility a number of times, it just didn't have a sign out front) we passed Dairy Queen, and the boys BEGGED and PLEADED for some ice cream. Well, they are such good boys, they deserved a treat, so through the drive-thru we went. I ordered a Blizzard for myself (mmm Skor), and a small dish of plain ice cream for the boys. The lady at the window ooh-ed and aah-ed over the "cute puppies" with their faces pressed eagerly against the back window (yeah, they know that goodness comes from the magical lady in the wall), and she asked if they wanted a cookie. I admitted that the bowl of ice cream was for them, so they didn't need a cookie. But when she handed me their little dish of ice cream, lo and behold, she had stuck two dog cookies on top! Too cute!
At home, I divied up the ice cream and cookies and the boys went to town!
LOL, Im so glad my dogs arent the only ones mystified by the magical people at the drive through...only now Shelby thinks EVERY TIME I roll down the window, its snack time! Its hard for me to tell the toll collector to have a nice day when Shelby is FREAKING OUT in her crate in the back...what they must think... Sheltie Hugs! Sheltie-Mom Jenn, Heidi and Shelby
Yes, because everyone knows that bare arms and bare legs equates to complete nudity. I can assure you that I am not nude ... sitting sweaty skin on warm linoleum is unpleasant enough when that skin is on your legs. *shudder*
Ahhhh . . . the DQ "pup cup!" My Madi knows this delectable treat well, by name and by sight LOL Of course it's all her fault for those extra calories I consume. I mean, how can you say no when those sweet eyes say, "PLEASE MAMA?"

Gio CD RE (CKC) RXMCL (CARO) FM CGN SJATD HIC
Gio is a 8 year old over-sized sable Sheltie. He is my over-achiever, taking all expectations of him and stretching them to the extreme. He is retired from flyball due to poor health, but still enjoys competing in CARO Rally-O. He is a certified therapy dog with St. John Ambulance and loves visiting "his ladies" at various nursing homes in Saskatoon and area. He recently received his PEN from the CKC began competing in CKC obedience and Rally-O in fall of 2008. In his spare time, Gio enjoys tracking with his sniffer buddies, playing fetch or tug, and engaging Romeo in "Sheltie Wars".
CRS CanyonView Forever Romantic CD RE (CKC) RVMCL (CARO) FDX SJATD HIC
Romeo is a 3 year old tri-colored Sheltie. He's my little piggy, always diving in head first and fur flying. He currently competes in NAFA flyball, CARO Rally-O, CKC Rally-O, AAC agility, and CKC obedience, and is a certified therapy dog with St. John Ambulance. Romeo is always up for a game of fetch, wrestle, chase, "kitty", and, of course, "Sheltie Wars" with Gio. Everything this boy does has flare, and there is always a spring in his step. Romeo comes from CanyonView Shelties.

Looked like a race to complete the ice cream first to me! And Gio was sure helpful with Romeo's cup while Romeo was off checking the floor! :)
Nice video! You just gotta love ice cream.

From the odd glimpses of you in the video I have determined that you are naked.

That ice cream looks pawsome. We love vanilla ice cream.
