Lili has a small family reunion 10-23-19
Lili's sister, Colbi; their 3/4 sister, Loon; and some old friends from Minnesota came for a visit in October. Lili took a while to warm up to them, but once she loosened up, everyone had fun.
Lili's littermate, Colbi: Hazel Run Grace saying hello to Lili's 3/4-sister, Loon: From left to right: Loon Mountain, Colbi and Setter Hills Grace:

Colbi was very protective of puppy Loon, but she allowed Loon and Lili to play under strict supervision. You can see Colbi here, watching, at the top of the picture:
Lili: "Loon, your ear smells good!" And you can see Colbi supervising at lower left here :

Soon, though, Lili and Colbi came to an understanding about Loon. They'd share playing rights :
That way, Colbi could play with the puppy, too: Hazel Run Grace watched all the action from the sidelines:

Loon and Colbi spent some time double-teaming Lili:
And then they got a little preoccupied with each other: And finally, all three of them were playing together:

Lili had fun showing Colbi her agility course. She even taught her to do the tunnel!
Loon was interested, too: A face-off game as interpreted by Lili (facing the camera) and Colbi:

I think it's a very good thing that Loon was spoken for, because otherwise we'd be, once again, in serious puppy jeopardy! hubby was totally smitten:
But what's not to love about that face?

Thanks, Winston!
And yes, if Loon hadn't been spoken for, I think hubby would have just snapped her right up!

Must have missed these family reunion pictures..........they look great.
I think if I had Loon in my arms I'd be smitten too same as your hubby. Great looking puppy. By the way, how is Grace?

There's a thread with just Loon and Lili pics, too. Lili wasn't quite sure what to do with a puppy, but Loon had a blast! (http://www.pets.ca/forum/showthread.php?t=88811)
Grace is doing better than I would have expected. She still wakes up bright and cheerful and ready to do her running and agility and obedience every morning, and is still up for taking a walk whenever it's offered. The lymphoma isn't spreading very quickly, but I can see that her patch is slowly getting bigger. And she's losing a little pep. But she has a good appetite and pees and poops right on schedule. Still hasn't progressed to the point where we might consider steroids or other meds. So not too bad for a dog that's had lymphoma for more than 6 months... She turned 14 last Friday, so I'll be posting Pawty pics as soon as our connection improves!
