Hey guys! With Matthew, we ended up being not online quite as much, so I haven't been posting. But I thought you guys would like to know we are doing great, and the girls are just splendid. A change in Kairo's diet seems to have stopped ALL poop eating (though I haven't tested that theory with the cat pan yet...).
DJ come's home this weekend, Friday or Saturday. So my time with Kairo is coming to a close. I have some worries - Kairo has developed even worse separation anxiety. I've begun trying to decouple them by taking them on separate walks for all walks, and she loses it. I think today was the first time she may have remained calm, but I think it's just because she knows we are coming back. I don't know what she's going to do with DJ's long days of work.
Anyway, here are some catchup photos. You can see the difference in my dog already!
Hurricane MatthewWe fled from Myrtle Beach to Charleston (not downtown, where it flooded, but Goose Creek which is North Charleston and a good 30 miles inland - we faired much better there than if we had stayed at home). Gosh the girls are gems. Neither have gotten really stir crazy.
My parents and I walked the dogs on a sort of rotation. This was the only time I didn't have to go out - it was just before the worst of the storm. Their squinty faces say it all - it was super gusty and they still went out like troopers. Ember didn't even shy away from the rain - she ran out, did her business, walked around a little bit to stretch, then ran back.

The building right behind the tree is where we are staying...

And here the red car is parked right in front of that building. (Yes, the silver car is literally under a tree - and the owners had just bought that car a week ago - it had almost 0 damage, amazingly)

And the poor dog's walking area...

Driving around to scout out the damage, on our way to running around my parent's business's fenced in lot. Ember pulls out her fear face for the camera every single time - right before she noticed the camera she had Kairo's expression.

Running around the lot in the aftermath. Ember had just stopped to check in with me and was watching Kairo refuse to come on command (we're still working on that).

Again, Miss Drama Queen. She was chilling and looking real comfy until I pulled out my camera. They really did quite well - they are now running around the living room chewing on each other while I try to get a normal work day in.
This past weekThey are really going to have a hard time when the fluffy one goes home...
