Checking in!

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't been posting too much, but I read what's going on here everyday.

Thought I'd just briefly update on life here in my corner of Kansas, lol!

Zoey and Dolly doing well, both just celebrated their 4th birthdays in March and May. Zoey has been in training lately to earn a backpacking title. We're making progress, so far, she's been carrying about 20 pounds or so for about 3 miles. Still as naught as ever!
Dolly is sporting her summer haircut and has been lounging in her baby pool as often as possible. She's on a diet right now and I am pleased to say that today she was weighed and has lost 7 pounds!  ;D She's doing well except for one incident the other night; I was walking the dogs and a loose pit bull attacked Dolly. No major wounds, but he got her ear pretty good and a good size puncture on her shoulder. She's healing fine, doesn't even remember it happened.  ::) :D

And for my biggest news, we've had Clarence the foster Basset Hound with us for 2 weeks now. The first week was rocky with him and my dogs, now everyone is getting along just fine. He's very laid back, sleeps a lot, but loves to play with Zoey occasionally, and is quite determined to get on our new furniture as well!

Hope everyone is doing well!
