20.9.12

Miss Ruby loves her bubbles!

It is the perfect way to wear her out if i can't take her out for a walk!. She runs (and does zoomies) and is completely pooped out afterwards (often lays by her bowl with her head in it!)

1.9.12

For the first day of spring, it is a beautiful day! Couldn't pass up that opportunity, so we took the girls down to the beach. Hardly anyone around which was great. They did meet a couple of dogs that one person had - Ruby, well, she turns all submissive around another dog! She gets real low and rolls over on to her back and goes all mopey!

They both had fun chasing each other around with a piece of cuttlefish.

"My cuttlefish"........"No, its mine"

Ava finally got to play with a toy for once! Ruby was intrigued with something outside for ages and Ava finally got to play with the new lion toy! Her puppy-ness came back!! We miss her pep!  

Becoming identical twins!

13.8.12

Aw they are being so sweet tonight. Sitting together playing with their toys. Ruby gets a bit carried away most of the time, but she stayed relatively in line this time! 

I stayed home all day from work (sick), and laid on the couch watching tv. Ava sat at the end, keeping my feet warm and Ruby laid right out along side me acting like a little hot water bottle! 

For some odd reason, Ruby's ears are ALWAYS crimped! Avas only get that way when they are wet! 

A little crimped ear!!

We took the girls down to the beach today. Soon as they were free on the sand, Ava took charge! She grabbed rubes by the ear and then neck and pushed her to the ground. This is HER beach! Ruby still wouldnt dear to go in the water! She stays really close by and when Ava barges into her, she comes and walks by us for 'protection'.

Ruby found a cuttlefish and carried it everywhere for a littlr bit. Then laid down to chew it, ava noticed and tem bam! Ava pinched it and ran off with it. Ruby chased, just a fraction behind, but ava ran straight jnto te water, where ruby wouldnt dare venture!!

22.7.12

We took the girls down to the Jetty for a little stroll. Ruby just has to sniff everything! Despite being a sunny day, with a calm ocean, it was pretty empty. We finished off by taking them to the local school oval for a quick run. Soon as they were off their leads, they are like 'we are freeeeee!'. Ruby doesn't venture too far from Ava, who is in her own world! They often run into each other (Ava barges down Ruby and Ruby tramples over Ava when she rolls on her back), but every now and then they are sweet (see photo of them carrying a stick together!).

Ruby is also a little daredevil. No fear in putting her head out the window (paws and all).




Ruby can dance!

Aww, best buddies!

13.7.12

We tool the girls down to the beach early this morning. A little choppy, but that never stops Ave going into the freezin water!

Ruby stayed close by to either me or Dad or to Ave. She almost got
Caught by te water a few times but hurried away just in time! We ha to walk over some rocks which Ava just trampled through the water and Ruby went to follow her but then realised she had to go into the water! She quickly back tracked and followed me.
They met a few of their buddies down at the beach and Ruby met a Malamute named Sky. She was almost 10 but seemed to want to play with her. She ran up to Ruby and pounced but about 4 feet from her! She was totally shattered when we got home and slept for quiet a while!

Got caught in a bit of water when she followed Ava quickly. Didn't keep her toes wet for long!

9.6.12 - First Day at the Beach.

Ruby is now set and ready to go to the beach after her vaccinations last week.

She was very excited to be out in the world, sniffing everything! When we got down at the end of the ramp and too the beach, another lady was walking TWO Goldens. Ava run over to say hello and the lady thought, miss Ruby was adorable, but she was a little overwhelmed. She stayed pretty close to us and to Ava, but Ave wasn't having any of it and still running around crazy and into the cold water! Ruby was iffy about the water and when the waves came up, she ran! Not long after, Ruby did get a bit tired and was walking slower but just before we left, Ave started to dig a hole, which she wasn't too pleased about when Ruby decided to help but for a few moments they dug together!

Just like Ava was at that age, she didn't like the water and now, we can't get her out of it, so i am sure Ruby will become the same!



All worn out!

Sitting with Daddy watching Ave splash around.

Yeah!!

Say hello to the camera Rubes!

Digging for gold!

Ruby is on Ave's tail but Ava out runs her for now!

With mum before they step on to the sand!

Her only venture into the water and she ran out as quick as she could!


unsure about these tiny waves!. So glad that it was such a calm day for her first time!

7.05.12 - Ava and Ruby

These two are going to be trouble. They dug their first hole together.
