Sunday Swim






While I don't know for sure, Deca appears to be pregnant. She seems to have gain some weight, her breast are enlarged, and she's exhibiting more nesting behavior than usual. Her puppies are due at the end of July. Until then, swimming will be her primary exercise.

Deca Friday



Deca is enjoying life.

Here she is after a bit of morning Frisbee. She's very fast, catches most of the time, and is a good retriever.

No signs yet that she's pregnant.
