Hello Yeti and Welcome Back Abby To K9Korner Dog Care

A few days ago we had the pleasure of welcoming a new friend, Yeti to K9Korner. She is a 1 1/2 yr old Border Collie cross. Her stay was very short but her mom and dad say she'll be back for another visit soon. Yeti only stayed over just one night, but we sure enjoyed having her with us. She has wonderful manners and we were not surprised when she found the toy box as quickly as she did.

Hey!? You guys got any toys here?
Ah yes! Now I see them
What? Did I leave some in the bin! I'll get them next!
We cant wait for Yeti to visit again. Mom and Dad forgot how energetic a puppy can be!
OH GOOD GRIEF!

Next we had a friend stay who we haven't seen for about 10 years. Abby is a Pure bred Standard Poodle who moved away when she was 2 years old. We heard she moved back to Lillooet and has now been adopted and is living with her gramma. She's a lucky girl indeed, she has two loving caring moms! Here's a couple of then and now photos of her.

2006 - P. MollyDawg - "Hey I love the perfume on your toes, Abby."
Abby - "Thanks Molly It's called Ode Da Dog-E"
 Now at 12 years old the two Black buddies are far more dignified. There was little to no rough stuff. A few simple, greetings of, "Oh hi, how ya bin?" and then just settling to enjoy the afternoon. 

Take the pic mom, Yer cutting into our nap time.
 Lady May wasn't as thrilled and seemed to  think she was a stranger. She tolerated Abby. Mostly, we think cuz she didn't have to share her toys.
Lady May- "At least I dont have to share toys with this one"
We hope they'll both be back to see us again soon.

Day 3 - What's so Cute about Topsy Turvey

I can do topsy turvey too ya know mom!
Okay so now mom is saying that Lady May is soo cute cuz she flips upside down to sleep. Oh come on now. Are you kidding me? What's so gud about that.

I can do that too ya know. well, I can BUT I choose not to. Why cuz it's dumb!
Who ever heard of a normal dog sleeping upside down . . . certainly NOT A ROYAL ONE!
Aww come on Princess MollyDawg, it's so relaxing to lay this way. You should really give it a try!
Besides sometimes Im only on my side with a back support
Well, and a pillow of course!
Oh good grief! Am I really part of this family!! ??
Oh the humiliation!

Day Two Photo Challenge and Plants Galore

Okay so here it is day two of the Photo challenge that Aunty Bonny nominated mom for. Thanks a lot Aunty Bonny. Now we have to be the center of attention for 5 straight days.... Oh wait a minute... does that mean.... well Yes I guess it does. It means that each and every time she attempts to take a picture of us... there will be COOKIES involved. Oh YAHOOO!!
That also means that if I accidentally turn my head just a bit out of kilter... well, she'll have to take another pic...
Hmmmm how many cookies are left in that cookie cupboard anyway??? Hey Lady May go count cookies......

Okay well, yesterday mom and dad went into the city for some docs appointment and guess what?! WE HAD TO STAY HOME!! I know what gives with that eh? Well to be honest mom thought it might be a safer thing to do cuz it was kinda hot out and she didn't want to take a chance on us getting over heated in the truck... Personally I think it was cuz she planned to get a whole lot of plants for her flower beds and baskets etc. Ya like she was gonna fill the entire truck bed... Now that makes more sense to me.
So this is just the beginning of picture time right? We soon get loads of cookies right?


She says it's a beautiful weekend and wants to get alot of yard work done. The lawns totally need mowing and hedges need pruning. Oh and our friend Lil' Molly's dad, brought us some wire fencing to put up behind one of our hedges so the neighbourhood dogs cant keep trying to sneak into our yard. They cause alot of havoc when we have company over so now they will be fenced out.
Lady May - "Hey Molly? Does that mean we're fenced in?"
We've always been fenced in Lady May, silly girl.
Lady May - "Ohh."

A Very Different Blog Post - Day Two Photo Challenge

Yesterday I was offered a Facebook Photo challenge. I know everyone who reads this blog will be familiar with that.

Today I had planned to write a tribute to honor the memory of my beloved King. I have been drafting it up for quite a few days now. It made me cry and it made me smile and reminisce about all the wonderful times I shared in his presence. I was pretty much ready to share that post here when my dearest friend/sister sent me a Facebook Challenge. The Happy Dog Life Challenge to fight animal abuse. The challenge is to post a picture of your dog(s) for 5 straight days and nominate another dog lover....

Did she remember this day was coming? Of course she knew. Did she know my heart was aching? Yes, she knew, because I'm certain she was feeling that dull ache as well. Did she know I would need something to lift my spirits this day. Maybe. I like to think she did. There is something she may not have known. That is, that her Facebook challenge post made me save the post I had intended for this day and lock it in a sealed folder for my heart only.

So today I'm writing a more uplifting post. One that will ensure my boy smiles down at me and says, "That's the way to live your life mommy. Let my spirit only bring joy to you this day forever more." Find peace and happiness in what's positive around you. There is much to sing and laugh about if we wish to open our eyes and search for it.
Today, April 28 2017 for me, will now mark an official day of healing, happiness and yes, Survival!

Yesterday was officially my Day One of the photo challenge. I received my message from Aunty Bonny at 5:30 am so that is my start time and date.
I posted my reply with these two photos as Day One.
With my camera in hand searching for the sleeping beauties at 5:30 AM Should be easy enough to find..

Lady May - "Back off Mom! I'm still sound asleep!"
Princess MollyDawg - "You've GOT TO BE kidding me right?
She's going to be tagging along beside us for 5 DAYS!!!
Oh good grief Lady May. This is going to be a pain! "
Today the Royal girls will be taking a short trip into the city for the day. We have some important business to attend to and they must tag along with us. Day Two photos will come when we get back home.

Aright Miss Aunty Bonny, You asked for it. . . Stay tuned . . .

Royal K9 Korner - Your Paws Are Safe With Us

A new year has unfolded. The Royals now have just two little girls. Princess MollyDawg and Lady May. We have set our sights on a brand new year and trying to live in the most positive fashion we can.
Life can be brutal if you let it. We refuse to let it keep us down.

Mom has retired and is focused on creating new and wonderful adventures. We get to be a part of it all and are very excited. The first BIG CHANGE is our name. We are now known legally as Royal K9 Korner. Mom really wanted to name us King's K9 Korner.. but you can see by the acronym that it really wasn't such a great idea. KKK Nawww

So, we are now a registered dog care facility and we're open to conduct our business in Lillooet. Mom and Lady May became certified Pet First Aider a few years ago.  So mom can make sure all our visitors stay safe. She's contemplating joining the Walks 'n Wags Pet First Aid team, by becoming an instructor!  We'll update you when things come together more in that area.

Today we thought we'd introduce you to a few of our latest guests. We'll be adding more videos and some of the fun antics that go on around here. Currently we're focused on upgrading our fencing and adding a bath station. Our goal is to make our guests have a truly, wonderful Royal visit with us.
We think we're on the road to success!

Be sure to check out our videos on King's YouTube Channel!  https://www.youtube.com/user/KingSurvives2008
We'll be adding more as we take them. Thank you for visiting us.

We hope you come back really soon!
