So far so good...

The doggies have been in their new run for three days now and they seem to be totally happy and have not figured out a way to escape. This is very good news. They get supervised romping in the rest of the yard every day and a nice hour long walk each evening in addition to lots of inside hanging-out-with-family-time every night. This is turning out to be a win-win situation which is really hard to achieve where dogs, kids and landscaping are concerned. Mauricio has found it incredibly easy to clean the run and it has some nice bonus amenities such as shade, ample drainage, compliments of a perforated drain pipe which we had installed out of site and then covered with a decent layer of drainage gravel. This means that Mauricio can hose off the entire run without creating a mud pit when the need arises.

Speaking of doggies, we're taking our massive lug of a beast Leo to get fixed in a couple of weeks. He's done most of his growing. He weighs in at 114 pounds and is just three months shy of his second birthday. The huevos aren't doing him any good anyhow, especially now that Luna's fixed.
