It's All About the Dogs!

"mine"  "no mine"  "hey, move over" "headin to the mezzanine"  "get your foot outta my face"
"i was here first" "wanna trade?"

Our routines have been seriously interrupted! Chores are slipping, the grass is ready to mow, the garbage is overflowing along with recyclables. But right now at the Haysmer's hale, it IS all about the dogs.

Morning routine now finds us sitting in rattan chairs coffee mugs in hand -- simply transfixed watching puppies taking turns having breakfast.

Here's little mamma (I'I Lani) with her four gorgeous pups. We are preparing 6-7 protein rich meals daily, high nutrition puppy chow, and other healthy treats. She is partial to lamb and rice, but her favorite treat are "chicken cubes."



We buy a whole rotisserie chicken and save the skin, and all the bones that get tossed into a pot of simmering water for 3-4 hours. After cooling, we run it in the blender and pour it into an ice cube tray. They are added to her water 2-3 times a day to help keep up her milk production.

Both Reba (grandma) and Poko (uncle) have been extremely well behaved and very respectful of the lanai area which they know is off limits. They get lots of pats and treats for good behavior.

Admittedly, this maybe more than you wanted to know, but no apologies from us
! At the Haysmer's right now, it is all about the dogs!
