A gotcha day cake for Simba to start!!

at the very least....

Hugs to within an inch of their lives and possibly swimming lessons!!??

Im not too sure they will like the swimming lessons. Big difference between minging dirty water and a clean doggy pool.

LOL I bet Simba has been waiting patiently for his Gotcha Cake - you'd better make it a good one LOL

Sounds about right, I get a nice hello of the dogs then they remember I have been away and then sulk

better than what the cat used to do Pat. She would stroll in and either bite or scratch you after you had come back, evil little sod.

PMSL - a case of it serves you right for going away and leaving me

Not too sure if I could stand being ignored after being away from them so long - they may just have to put up with being fussed over!! Regardless of whether they want it or not!!

Awwwww.

Sarah will be getting excited now about seeing them again!

I hope all your dogs go nuts when they see their mummies again! I couldnt believe that even gentle Kobi who is normally so aloof tried to climb me along with Kumakaze when I got them out of the boarding kennels last month, it`s such a mix of emotions, you feel awful for leaving them but so exhilerated when you hear them wooing and shouting at you then bouncing up and down and throwing themselves to say hello.

Akitas give the best welcome home I have ever had.
