Hello Hive! I thought the virus may pass us by, since Thailand was one of the least affected countries for a long while, but they let tourists in a couple of months ago and now we have the biggest outbreak ever since the start of the pandemic. On top of that Nat's mom tested possitive and is quarantined in a Hotel for 2 weeks. The regulations they created are so bad.. they quarantine everyone that tests possitive in a hospital, even if they aren't showing any symptoms. Since hospitals got full pretty quick, now they are filling up stadiums and hotels. People that actually need medical help might not even get it since Hospitals are preocupied with hosting healthy people.. We on the other hand just quarantined ourselves at home and decided to spend some more time looking after our 5 dogs. Its one of the things that truly brings me happiness outside of traveling. Here are some moments with our doggos
Dogs are happiness
Usually the dogs at home are split between me and Nat and her mom. We take Whiskey and Stormi and she takes care of Casper and Baby, while Tanti is roaming outside. Now that she's away though we have all the doggos in our room. Stormi and Baby are the most active ones and they never stop. Casper and Whiskey on the other hand love to lay around and be lazy for the most of the day.
Stormi is the only one that loves to play with toys. Baby often steals her toys but doesn't know what to do with them afterwards. Just guards them and they try and fight over them..😅We tried buying loads of toys for Whiskey before but she would just ignore them. She likes ignoring stuff, even the other dogs.😅
Since our new Doberman is going to arrive in a couple of weeks we bought a bunch of bigger toys for her as well. Stormi was ecstatic when she saw all of these toys. Thought they were all for her.😀
We did give her a new one, that she was quite happy with yesterday though. The ones for our new dog are way too big and heavy.
When she doesn't have a toy around she likes to stare. She has this intense gaze, like she's looking through your soul.
She also really likes to be a part of our workouts. The moment me or Nat go on the floor to do any exercise, she's there to make it harder.😀
And of course after all that energy is spent, she has to sleep in the most weird ways. It's funny how all of our dogs take some super weird sleeping positions.
Whiskey is doing so much better since her surgery. We have been to the vets only once ever since for a vaccine and that's it. These trips used to be weekly before. She grew a lot of hair back and now she's this massive fluff ball.
She's crazy about treats and usually know in the afternoon when it's time to get one. She stops being lazy for awhile and runs after me with excitement to the second floor to get one. She also loves fruits and often steals a bit of my mango or apples.
Afterwards she's back to her usual lazy self..And yes Stormi's toys are everywhere.😃
Casper is our big boy. He's significantly bigger than all of the other dogs and is the third oldest after Whiskey (also the laziest by a long shot). Nat's mom have fed him a bit too many treats and he's slightly overweight but we're working on it. He had problems with his back legs and seemed he was limping. We went to take an x-ray for him when we moved back in this house and it turned out there were no problems with his legs.. he was simply fat. 😀
You can often find him like this.
He loves attention though and would come and just sit on your feet and then turn his belly for some scratchies.
He also loves the outdoors. He is the one that spends the most time outside in the yard and sits near the fense to monitor what's going on outside. Another thing you can find him doing outside is rolling around in the grass. Often his hair is filled with small leaves or things stuck in his fur from the bushes.
I don't have many good photos of Baby but I'm gonna take my camera out soon and take some nicer photos of all the doggos.
Hope you all enjoyed the little doze of happiness. I sure do everyday! I haven't posted in this community for awhile but we've been traveling a lot lately and I haven't had the time. Now that we can't even leave the house and are expecting a new doggie - I'll be a bit more active here I guess.
