(in a fast high pitch voice) How big was that cat you beat up again?


I must have laughed out loud for 5 minutes at the look on Rustys face once I got a good look at this pic.

Chloe's glamor shot.


haha. Stick your back leg out (click of the camera). Now look over my shoulder, ya like that (click of the camera), now fluff your ears out a bit more (click of the camera). Give me your seriuos look, ya!, hold right there (click of the camera)....... haha.

Training? We doe need no stinking training.


It was a weiner dog day! from back to front; Hudson, Izzo, Chloe...and of course Rusty!!

Sometimes I guess its more fun to cram everyone into the same room instead of going outside on a nice day.


hahahaha. Silly wild animals.

"Why is that person pointing that flashy box at us?? I don't know but i'll hide behind you."


Nothing more fun to watch than puppys playing and having a good time. Again I'll say it... My job is a tough one but some has to do it.

Welcome Belle!


Belle (lab ret) had a blast today. She met many new friends. Today was a day of new friends. We had 5 new dogs today!! I love to see people socialize their dogs.

Welcome Bailey!!


Bailey (cairn terr) here to play with her puppy kindergarden friend Evah. I see a lot of puppys and she is one of the most cuddly!:)

Welcome Lola!


Lola (bassett) and her brother are enjoying their first day here at Canine Antics and lovin' every minute of it. What a marshmellow she is.

Welcome Buddy!!!


Buddy is Lola's step brother. These hounds are too funny!!! If you put them in different areas apart from each other Buddy starts to belar his disapproval!! haha

Welcome Evah!


Evah (corgie) comes to us from Dogs Bay Puppy Kindergarden also. She and Bailey are buds in the class.

I'm Buddy. And I now present to you... A dogs day at Canine Antics.

When we arrive at Canine Antics we are so happy, sometimes we run around all crazy.


Sunshine (lab) is one of my training clients who when I met her had agression issues with other dogs. After some time in my Pack Rehabilitation Program at Dogs Bay she has finally learned the social skills needed to begin daycare at Canine Antics!! A true success story! Good Girl Sunny.

We do our business.


Due to the graphic nature of the said act, Smax will be taking one for the team. Sorry for posting your private moment on the internet little guy. :)

Sillyness overtakes us.


Skippy with his bunny ears on!! :)

We play with our friends.


Chocolate (a.k.a choc-o-latte) and Tehlulah are two little soul mates. Play is their main objective!

We drink some water.


Mattie (shown)and Lily (not in pic) are our two water champions. If a spray of water ever is in there reach, these two will be on it like white on rice. Oh and you never want to leave the 2 gallon water bowl unattended for too long, cause one of these two are sure to splash it out.... and Gus is always in the middle of whatever action is going on. hahaha

Bob throws us some fly balls.


Malie is so funny when we play tennis ball toss. She commits herself 110% to every single ball that is thrown. She has such a blast here at Canine Antics. At the end of the day, she walks out with this look on her face as if to say "awe come on mom do we have to go already?"

We drink some water.


Clancy sitting there like Jethro Bodine with his bowl of water. I guess he's just tired of standing to get his drink.

We eat our lunches.


Hahahaha this is fun to watch!!! You should try it at your home sometime for a special treat.

Give Bob some lovin's


Believe it or not, Gypsy actually bit me at our first training session!!! Right on the butt. haha. She has since then learned she has much more fun being a lover, not a fighter.

We play some more with our friends.


B'lanna and Stormie sharing a doggie hug.

...And at the end of the day, we're happy and tired dogs.


Now thats a "golden smile".

Come on Charlie, show me the love.


"My mom told me not to just give kissys away to anyone who asks."

"Someone stop me!!!"


haha Charlie kinda looks like E'ore from winnie the poo.

"I can't help it!! I must lick face!!"


Guess we have a lot of lovers today.

Welcome Shota!


Shota (show-ta) is a shiba inu from Chicago, her parents are in town on vacation. (there have been a lot of dogs from the windy city lately) Shota is no stranger to daycare however, she's been going to one in her home town for quite q while now. Very good girl.

TRIVIA!!!!!!!! WHY DOES THE EYE OF AN ANIMAL APPEAR TO GLOW WHEN YOU SHINE A LIGHT IN THEIR FACE???


The answer to last weeks question (What do the hackles up on a dog mean?) is,.. excitement! Not fear, not anger, only stimulation. Usually the first correct answer wins, but I accepted 3 winners this week(cause I love participation). B'lanna's Dad, Lola's mom, and Benjamin/Herbie's mom. Congrats!! Enjoy your free day!

I guess I've done my job for the day.


I've always said a tired dog is a good dog.

"You need help with that?" says Sophie. "No, I think I got it now." replys Benjamin.


Herbie, and Sophie helping Benjamin scratch his ear.

The reverse tongue Gorbachev


I think its actually a unicorn.... see the eye???

Once again, I must show the world what a Golden Retriever having no fun looks like.


Gus does this nearly every single morning. He'll run around all crazy like, then Emma puts him in his place, finally he ends up all happy on the floor like this. hahahahah tooooooo funny.

AHHH!!! HELP!!! I'M BEING ATTACKED BY 3-LEGGED DOG!!!!

Now Benjamin, its not polite to eat people. ;)

See! I told ya. Monday 8-17, the Dawk Hawk predicted 100% chance of precipitation.


Haha, when Skippy has a bad hair day, SKIPPY HAS A BAD HAIR DAY..;)

Welcome back Rolo!


hahaha Someone's happy to be back in the pack. Rolo is a visitor who comes to us every summer for a week. He rides a boat from a far off land... and they make port in the Saugy area.

Bow to your partner doe-c-doe.


Chena and Maverick doing a little doggie square dancing today. I think Bandit and Emma are in awe of their moves.

I see Emma, Smax, and Maxwell playing rope tug..., What is Tucker doing?


haha, Thats Tuck for ya. Always a class clown.

Dawg Hawk Barometer.


It has recently been discovered that Skippys Dawg Hawk has barometric prediction properties. Depending on the air pressure and relative humidity his Hawk will stand up straight or slump over to the side (kinda like a killer whale who has been in captivity too long). So today was very humid....VVVEERRRYY humid. hahaha

Welcome Belle!


Belle (brittney span) had her first day here at Canine Antics, and quickly showed us how much of a lover she is... We have tough jobs here, but someones gotta' do it. ;)

Welcome again, Belle!


Another pic cause shes so cute.

TRIVIA!!!! WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHEN THE HAIR ON A DOGS BACK (HACKLES) STANDS UP?????


The answer to last weeks trivia question.. (What breed of dog is known for having double due claws??) is the Great Pyrenees and/or the Beauceron. This question was answered correctly by Herbie and Benjamins Mom!!!!!!! Enjoy your free day Angel!!! There are also a few other breeds who share this trait, everyone should look them up!

In a Barry White voice Big Bear says..."Thank you for opening the pool, I feel sooooooo much better."


No problem Bearington....

"Pool parties too? I love this place!!!!!!"


Mason just figured out that there was a pool filling up outside. "Don't splash me dude" says Harley.
