(My parents' visiting dog Abby with Spike and a broken down kiln)
I am firing my baby kiln today with a glaze load. It holds around two boots, of a small size. Translate that into pottery, and you have a couple of large piggy banks and a mug and assorted very small things. This kiln has new elements, but the top one burned out rather spectacularly on Friday, I have a call in for parts. I doubt if this is an easy week to get the parts. Fortunately, I have the baby kiln, and also the previous firing had contained the LAST of my Christmas orders.
My parents went out of town for a couple of days and their dog Abby is visiting. We have already 2 cats and 3 dogs, all of whom are quiet and calm. Abby is VERY energetic and affectionate. It feels a bit circus like here, although they all are very good, and the motto is just like in preschool classrooms: 'better behavior through exhaustion.'

You gotta love a face like that, though . . . what a cutie!

Ah, she's a pretty girl! And don't forget the springer's motto, "Tell or show me what you want me to do, and I'll bust a gut trying!" What a treat to see that sweet face, Springers truly are such lovely dogs in every way. Waaah, I miss my pete.
Abby is super affectionate and she likes my dogs, but she was glad to see her (and my) mom and dad
My Aunt used to have a very fat Springer. She had a terribly fierce bark, but was an absolute sweetheart if you persevered. I have never seen a dog with so much vertical lift, either. She could launch herself 4 feet straight up. Quite the feat for a dog that had the build of a hairy ottoman.
Spike doesn't seem to be fazed at all! Cats always rule!
Like the new look. Kinda like changing furniture! (Notice I never change mine! I'm afraid something wacky will happen and I won't know how to fix it!)
She's a sweetie! I had a chocolate poodle about 25 yrs ago named Abbey.
