A Cold and Rainy Night

Some dogs huddle, other dogs cuddle.

It was cold and rainy last night. Thank goodness for the fairly tiring activities they had the whole day, the dogs decided to call it a night a little bit earlier than usual. 

Lexie and Nala sleeps outside the house. And though it breaks our hearts to leave them outside as they are too cute not to stay indoors with us, we know giving them boundaries will make it easier for us when the pups grow up. Though Ivy's potted plants do get most of the early-morning-puppy-energy-discharge, it seems like one plant disappears every morning, i do admire my wife's patience on the pups as i know how important the plants are to her. Nala usually sleeps on the cold (and damp, if available) concrete floor and Lexie always looks for the comforts of her soft bed. But the cold made them huddle and cuddle together last night, a very different gesture from the all-day play-biting sessions of the two.





Even our two indoor dogs didn't escape the mood of the night. Rarely do Chuck and Beka share the bed as Chuck prefers to sleep by his lonesome, he always leaves the bed to Beka as soon as she takes her space on it. But not last night. Last night was a cold and rainy night. Last night, the two beagles huddled and cuddled. 





Our dogs huddle, our dogs cuddle.
