Frica moved the alien out of the bedroom this morning and left it on the top step. There it remained until mid-morning when she took it downstairs where it now lies next to another yellow toy. I think I’ve discovered why she’s been so bitchy toward Bee: Bee is obviously in heat. Can’t believe I missed all the early signs. This is the first time I’d had a tailless dog in heat and it’s not easy keeping her pants on without a tail to anchor them. I have to rethink this… I don’t blame Fric for not wanting the alien to see it.
On the puppy front, today Fric stayed out the pen when the pups were hungry, forcing them to walk over to her. When she still didn’t come in, the two brindle males started jumping on each other and Cori went up to the pen and wagged her tail. I went back to work and the next time I looked around, Fric was in the pen with them, but she was playing with them rather than nursing. Pretty darn cute.
Another big storm in the forecast for tonight. More of what has become the usual, lots of snow followed by sleet and freezing rain to make it brutally heavy to shovel. Between shoveling and hauling BeeBee up and down the stairs, I’m going to have arms like Popeye.
