These are the last few weeks of her being the "baby". Her blog got a new look today. I think she approves! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Since our last update, Frankie had a birthday. She is now officially 2 years old! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Winter has been a little rough on the pup. She's gained a few pounds and spends all her time cooped up in the house. But we're making it up to her with a big fenced in back yard in June - or so we hope.</span> <br />

She was able to come and go from indoors to outdoors. She enjoyed many boat rides, went swimming, and got to play with her older "cousin" Bailey (another Cocker). </div><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center">She got to spend a weekend with the Stawarski family. They have a doggie door (yet no doggie?!) with a fenced in yard, so Frankie was in heaven! We feel bad coming home after she's been somewhere that's provided her with so much freedom. OUR PUPPY NEEDS A FENCED IN YARD!!! </div><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center">We continue to enjoy the dog park, especially now that it's cooled down a bit during the days. She loves to bounce and bound through the tall weeds. We're hoping to catch this in some photo's later this week. She's showing promise that she just may become a hunting dog after all.

Just to let everyone know...she's been busy!<br /><br />We've been to the Murschel's (twice) where she got to play with Buddy and Molly.<br /><br />She spent 4th of July up at the lake, at Aunt Jane's and Uncle Steves. By the way... she's indifferent to fireworks. <br /><br />Last weekend was the big Rodeo weekend in Isanti. We spent the night at the Murschel's and she somehow was able to claim an entire full size couch while a 6+foot man had to sleep on a love seat - HA! (good job Frankie!)<br /><br />This weekend we're at the cabin in Buffalo City, WI...visiting Grandma and Grandpa. She went on a pontoon ride, met a sunfish, and eat some sunflower seeds and drank some beer. She's sleeping right now....she's one tired pup!Kellihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04346122293746830117noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7413999098717498062.post-452148982403175612008-07-01T07:13:00.002-05:002008-07-01T07:32:36.005-05:00Sugar and Spice.......<p align="center"><span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff6666;">Y</span><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">esterday</span>, Frankie got her first haircut. Jeff dropped her off at 9:00 with the groomer and picked her back up at 11:30. Apparently, she is a very unruly customer! HA! When Jeff picked her up, he asked how she did, and they basically told him she was the worst of the worst. SHE’S A PUPPY!!! And you just brought a scary sounding clipper close to her body and head. I would be a little unruly too! They told me she would be getting a “puppy cut” her first time in. That meant she would get her nails trimmed, ears cleaned, and maybe a little trim up to get her use to the idea. Oh, and it was be ½ the normal cost. Well…..she came home with a full cut, and it cost $50!!!! So I’m glad she was a brat – serves them right! However, we will have to work on her behavior so it gets easier – for whoever cuts her hair.<?xml:namespace prefix = o /><o:p></o:p></p><div class="Section1"><br /></div><p class="MsoNormal" align="center"><o:p></o:p>At any rate, she looks adorable! She’s all trimmed up and even came home with little pink bows in her hair.

Her eyes nearly popped out of her head when she saw the meaty bone coming towards her. She was using all her might to strip away the meat, even growling at times. She ate like a queen last night! Soon after dinner, she cuddled up in Daddy’s lap and it was lights out. She slept the rest of the night there, the whole way home and like a champ all night.

We took her for a small walk to the end of our block to get the mail. Here she met two adult female Cockers named Freckles who is black and white – just like <st1:givenname st="on">Frankie</st1:givenname> and Tootsie who is black and buff - looks like a tootsie roll. She also met Colby who is a male buff Cockapoo and <st1:givenname st="on">Eddie</st1:givenname> who is a black and white Cockapoo. After the dogs checked each other out and the adults ran out of mundane chit chat, we were on our way back home. Our neighbors were out enjoying the somewhat warm weather, so we decided to join them. While we sat around with our beers, we watched five dogs play, chase, and jump all over each other. Those in attendance were: Oopsie who is a little <st2:personname st="on"><st1:givenname st="on">Jack</st1:givenname> <st1:middlename st="on">Russell</st1:middlename> <st1:sn st="on">Terrier</st1:sn></st2:personname>, Danner who is a golden Lab, Ox who is a nine week old Boston Terrier, our <st1:givenname st="on">Frankie</st1:givenname>, and big <st1:givenname st="on">Frankie</st1:givenname> who is a buff colored female Staffordshire Terrier (Pit Bull). Yes, there are two female <st1:givenname st="on">Frankie</st1:givenname>’s on our block! This was not the first time these five pups have gotten to play together. Big <st1:givenname st="on">Frankie</st1:givenname> and Oopsie live across the street from us and Danner and Ox live a few blocks away but visit often. It was fun to watch the dogs play and it was even more fun knowing they would all be super tired for bed time! </span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10;"><?xml:namespace prefix = o /><o:p> </o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.25in"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size:10;"></span></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size:10;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"><span style="font-size:12;"><o:p> </o:p></span></span><p></p></div>Kellihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04346122293746830117noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7413999098717498062.post-77889011832643921932008-05-20T15:53:00.000-05:002008-05-20T15:54:29.585-05:00poor thing...can't catch a break<span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff6666;">F</span>rankie had hiccups all night and all morning.
