As always, the girls got spoiled for Zoe's birthday with a bag full of toys and treats. I've mentioned it before, but our dogs (especially Lexi) destroy toys like you wouldn't believe so I always buy them at the dollar store. It doesn't matter if I pay one dollar, or ten, for a toy, Lexi will have it destroyed in under 10 minutes. Guaranteed.
When I went to the store this time, the selection was pretty dismal and there wasn't a single plush toy in the whole place - which is their favorite kind. They both get a kick out of pulling the stuffing out of them as soon as they manage to tear a hole in them. So, I ended up getting them more treats than usual and got them a few repeat toys from years past that I know they like. Plus a few frisbees for Lexi that we bought last month. Around here we call frisbees the toys that keep on giving because Lexi doesn't play fetch with them, she chews them up. She breaks off little pieces all around the house, and then the cats bat them around for hours of fun.
But enough of that, let's get to the good stuff, shall we?
Lexi and Zoe waiting patiently for their present...
Checking it out...
Digging in...
Score!...
Wait, this thing still has the wrapper on!...
That's not very nice!...
Seriously, guys, I can't get this thing off. Somebody unwrap it for me!...
Give it to me, give it to me!...
Yum...
Did somebody say more treats?...
I just adore this photo of Zoe! It's one of my favorites...
I loved the fun bright colors of this rope toy, and couldn't resist it...
These two images are definitely among my all time favorite photos of Lexi! She has such a huge personality and she's such an inquisitive dog, and I feel like that really comes across here...
Another fun colored rope toy...
These cloth frisbee type toys usually don't last long, but Lexi seems to like them...
Sweet Zoe...
Since the bag contained too many treats to eat at one time, Kevin was picking most of them up to save for later as soon as the dogs got the tissue paper off. Zoe is all about food and wasn't too happy that her prizes kept getting scooped up as fast as she could open them. She has her eyes glued to Kevin in a lot of these images hoping he's going to return her loot...
Even Daisy and Gasby joined in on the fun! Only this time they didn't watch from the side lines or wait until things had settled down a bit to see what all the fuss was about. They were right there in the middle of the room checking things out, hiding in the tissue paper, and playing with some of the dogs' new toys...
She's not quite sure what to think yet?
What is that crazy dog doing?
Well, I guess it's ok. I'll just lay here and watch...
For me? You shouldn't have...
I may have gone a wee little bit overboard on photos with this post, so thank you if you made it all the way to the end and you're still with me! I liked a lot of these and wanted to share them, plus it's been an eternity since I posted photos of the dogs on the blog.
I always love pix of your pets. I also love that the kitties joined in the fun.
