Tanner Learns A New Trick and It's A Cocker Spaniel Christmas

Wow. 2014 is here. It's been here for a few days now. Christmas is over, the New Year has arrived, we're four months into life in North Carolina, and all our friends in Ohio are gearing up for sub-zero temps with more snow and ice. It seems Canada left the barn door open again! Just so you know, it's even predicted to be down to 7 degrees here overnight Monday with a 51% chance of snow. Stay warm everyone!

We hope these snapshots bring a smile to your face!

Just before Christmas, Tanner learned a new trick! 
He was so PROUD of himself!

Tanner protects "his" Christmas Tree and presents from Tucker.

Tanner & Tucker discuss who's going to open the first present.

Tucker decides to help Karen read Christmas cards...

...while Tanner double checks his inventory.

There's nothing quite like a Cocker Spaniel Christmas!

I hope there were some good doggy treats in those packages!

Hey Janet,

Yes...there were a few good doggie treats in a few of those packages!

Great pictures! I love Tanner's new trick. Looks like a great "first" Christmas in North Carolina. We're glad you're here--just wish you would send that cold weather back up to Ohio.

I guess you need to start putting the roll of toilet paper on to unroll the opposite direction to keep him from unrolling it. Heehee.

I guess you will need to put the toilet paper on the opposite way to keep Tanner from showing off his new trick. LOL

Hey Carol,

It's cute the first time, but then you start looking for solutions! Thanks for the idea. At this point we're closing doors and using doggie gates...

Love keeping up with you....and you know how much I love the missionary mutts. T & T are adorable, but hey, I've had a Cocker. mischievous up to their eyeballs.

We're nearing the end of JUNEuary with temps in the high 70's. desperately need rain or we're in for a horrible drought in CA.

Love you K & K and T & T!
