Don't tell Vicki.

As you will see from this picture Tess is turning out the be a very keen gardener.


I'm sure that when Tommy retires she will make a very good head gardener.

P.S. don't tell Vicki about this as she only bought that plant home last night - so sssh!

Well it is good to teach her how to garden while she's young.

Ooops Tess.
Hi Rob, You asked who Molly is and she is a chocolate Lab who is @ 2-3 years old ( we will know more when we get the vet records) plus we keep forgetting to ask Chris' son.
My husband went down to Bloomington last week to visit his son and wife and their FOUR boys all six and under. They had gotten Molly when she was puppy, but with the addition of two more boys and lots of busy-ness they felt bad that she didn't receive the attention she deserved. So, they mentioned to my husband that they wish she could go with someone who could give her attention, etc... well home she came. Having had our hearts set on another Border Collie we were all so surprised when we fell in love with her right away. A Border Collie is still on the horizon, but in the meantime....Molly sure is sweet. She needs to work on walking on a leash. Basically, she was in a crate or on the leash and didn't get to run much....

She weighs 70 pounds and feels like velvet to the touch. :)

oMG- l just came in here to check how things were when... Tess! Lol- love it. Our Callum did a similar thing with a bag of couscous years ago- got the pic too - what memories are made of.
Has been busy up here but will take it easy this rainy weekend. I worked for hours in the garden yesterday.
Hope all well your end.

Rob, please reassure me that you don't own a budgie.

Such a sweet face! butter wouldn't melt in her mouth! It couldn't have been her - must have been some other dogs!

Darlene said...

Oh, and just look at her little tail between her legs! It's a good thing they're so cute at that age isn't it, Rob.

Deacon would head straight for the mulch around our trees when he was a pup. Little monkeys!

Puppies will be puppies. That is what makes them so delightful and so maddening.

I love her innocent expression..."I was just sitting here and the plant flew out of its pot and went all over the place." Yes I think she's going to make an excellent Head Gardener!!!

Now, that was just plain fun, huh, Tess? What are puppies suppose to do anyhow????? And besides, it's the precursor to digging up the garden. Oops. I wasn't suppose to say that...

Tommy sure has a lot to teach Tess, but I'm sure she'll be a quick learner.
