5 June: It's All Fun & Games Until Someone Loses a Tooth

Alternate title: When Cosmo Met Parker (not entirely true, since they first met on Sunday...)

Nervous Cosmo (L) on a first date with the slightly older, sexier & happier Parker (R)

There are a pleasantly surprising number of flatcoats in this neck of the woods grasses (?). We have Cedar from Eagletarn in Richmond, and Cosmo from Coastalight in Nanaimo. Liz at Blazingstar has a couple of dogs from their own breeding line (Tinbie and Puffin), and Cava from Kennel Bramatha in the UK. Judy Hunt has Roxy and Mazie from Affinity in the Fraser Valley, and Kona from Blazingstar. Sarah N. recently lost Kaleb, who was from Prairielight in Saskatoon.



The newest FCR kid on the block is Tammy's hot little girl 'Parker', from Flyway Farm in sunny California. Cosmo had a little play-date with this lovely Valley Girl today, which ended (but not tragically!) in her losing a tooth. Looks like Cosmo has aspirations of growing up to be a dentist :)

The lovely Miss Parker

Parker, ready to break in young Cosmo

At first Cosmo - Mr Laid Back & Hesitant - wasn't sure about this whirling dervish called Parker. " I thought girls were supposed to be nice & gentle"

Ack - she touched me! Girl cooties!!

Yikes! What does Tammy feed you girl?

Took a bit, but Cosmo came out of his shell and warmed up to Parker pretty quickly once she played kissy games

Now this is more like it!

I love you Parker, can we just cuddle for a bit...

Silly boy got all googly-eyed over the California teenager - starting to think he liked being bossed around by an older woman.

C'mon, get up you effeminate fuzzy ball of puppyness, let's wrastle

I think Cosmo fancies himself as a lover not a fighter...

"Such lovely fangs Parker, but seriously...can't we just hug?"

Uhm, no. No mushy stuff for Parker, she quite enjoyed being the boss!

P a r k e r...you. are. squishing. me!

Time for a little cool down/chillaxin' in the dog pool.

Please doG, don't let her her see me in the doggie pool...

Cosmo decided to get the upper hand (paw?), and that perhaps they knew each other well enough now to play "doctor" dentist. To minimize Parker's love 'nips' he decided to extract a loose tooth!

 Cue swirling tongue..."this one feels loose, is that it?"

"Pop!"  Wow, that tooth really flew out of your mouth Miss Parker, I think I found it though!"

" Look Mom, I lost a toof"
Yup, missing a K9....way to go Cosmo!

Parker's MMM (much more mature ) sister Taylor, who had been watching from safely inside the house, decided it was safe enough to come out and mingle with the hooligans now that the tooth count was down.

Ewwww, tooth blood and puppy germs!

Taylor braved the FCR puppyfest and came outside to be confronted by the two hooligans and their never still tongues...

A Rose between 2 thorns...

Rumour has it Taylor is a bit of a camera-ho, didn't take long for her to 'happen' to be ready for some pics...

 Tylor 'naturally' looking off into the distance

"Oh, and I look quite nice when shot head on..."

"Looking to my left really exposes my best side don't you think?"

Oh Taylor you ham! Gorgeous, but hammy...

A BIG thanks to Tammy, Parker and the oh-so glamorous and patient Lady Taylor for a fun playdate - Cosmo is sooooo tired but looking forward to more visits with his girlfriend.
