The Murphy Train Is Home....Guinness is Sleeping With One Eye Open!

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

Oh, what an amazing, incredible day. We're home. The trip was perfect. Guinness didn't throw up or drool. We didn't get lost....thank heaven for GPS. In years past, DH and I wouldn't be speaking by the time we got there...you know that "asking for directions thing". Lynne's home is Doodle Disneyland! Guinness loved it...I think he wanted to stay. All these awesome Doods...all sizes! It is just such a fun and amazing feeling there. On the trip home my two boys snuggled together and slept..the whole way! Guinness never closed both eyes though. Just one at a time. Then we got home. Guinness started the "humping"...what's up with that! He doesn't do that. It's gross! Well it happened three times, and then Murphy put him right in his place. It hasn't happened since. Okay, I took a break for potty. I learned they won't potty together yet...to busy playing. So, it's one at a time. Oh no, Murphy is trying to hump Guinness. Nice thing for a big brother to teach the baby. They were both starving. Guinness's food on one end of the kitchen and Murphy's on the other end. Nice try, Mom. All of a sudden Guinness likes kibble....I don't think so! They are great about sharing the water bowl though...very cute! Since dinner they've been wrestling non stop. My son wants to know if there is a "WWE" for dogs...he thinks they would be stars. I know Guinness is exhausted. I think he's thinking "okay Mom, the play date is over, can he go home now?". The most interesting part will be in a little while when it's our traditional "cuddle time" in the bed. Hmm, how will Guinness like that? Murphy is a Doodle "cowboy". He's rough and tough and takes no prisoners. He growled and nipped at me when I went to put the leash on him...he's not crazy about that leash. I think my response made him aware that wasn't going to "fly". Guinness looked appalled. If he could talk I'm sure he would have said..."big mistake". He is very sweet, but I'm going to need to start the training right away because he's "spunky" with a mind of his own. I have seen that already. Guinness, my "velcro" dog doesn't seem to know I'm alive tonight. I wonder how long that will last? I'm too tired to upload the pictures tonight....besides it's our cuddle time. I promise tomorrow though. I wonder what the night will bring? Should be interesting. Thanks again to all my DK friends for your well wishes and support, and special hugs from Guinness and Murphy to the "fairy godmothers". Good Night till tomorrow.

Lizzie and Marley wrestled for days when I brought him home! They are endlessly entertaining, that's for sure. But when they're done, it's so nice and quiet! It is nice that they wear each other out. Congratulations again, can't wait to see the new pictures!

Sounds like everything is off to a "normal start". Good Luck.

You are reding the pay book from our house! Samantha doesn't eat kibble unless she's starving or Charli is eating hers. At home cooked dinner time they play musical bowls even though I still feed them on separate sides of the kitchen. I think they are just making sure they one didn't get a better dinner then the other!!

My girls hump each other. Samantha does it when Charli has gotten on her last nerve and Charli does it when Samantha is playing ball with us and is ignoring her!

You never have to go out for entertainment again - you have your own 'dinner and a show'!

Have fun!!! Can't wait to hear more and see the pictures!

Glad to know everyone is home safe and sound! I will look forward to seeing the pictures.

[Karen P]

Sounds great. I can't wait to see pictures !!

[Donna K & Quincy]

You must be so excited! I'm sure the boys will settle down in a few days and Guinness will teach Murphy the good things, as for the humping they are just trying to show each other who is king of the castle. Have fun, looking forward to some pics and Guinness and Murphy stories.
