I don't mind doing kennel chores at all. Sometimes, when times are busy I mind the time they take, but always when I get out into the dog yard and start the work, I am happy to be outside with the dogs.
If the dogs and I took a vote though, our favorite chore would be scrubbing, rinsing and filling water buckets.
"Why?", you ask.
Well, although I spend time messing with dogs while picking up bowls, scooping and otherwise meandering through the yard, the length of time varies. When I'm filling buckets each dog knows I am in their area and they have my undivided attention when I'm filling their bucket.
They all have different things they wish to do with their 'Mom Time'.

...and one was too wrapped up wondering what my silly Border Collie and Mark's Stupid Cat were up to to pay too much attention to me!
Got to admit Vader, I was wondering myself.....

Doesn't the dog roll in the dirt and the cat sniff out small things to catch? Vader sounds like our 4 year old boy, also Vada, or Bug, which was shortened from Buggar cause he can be a right little one most of the time and up to no good! And yes, he response to Bug, if he wants to listen, which is not to often!
Love it! You get just the right comment with each picture!!
