Getting ready for 101 day.
The group trying to make a video. Did I say trying?
What happens when puppies get loose? They
all run around and follow each other, and get
into mischief. The Cruellas were looking to
capture them, but the puppies were scattered
enough that it was difficult to get their hands
on any of them.
Cruella thought she had the puppies in a
place where she could handle them, but
the puppies kept running around and
finding good places to hide in the maze of
hedges in the English garden.
Only three puppies are visible here. Can you
imagine how many are hidden in the hedge maze?
Ray used his artistic talent to paint puppies and paw
prints on Joanie’s dress. A spotted hat and belt added
to the final look. Ray carried a puppy with him during
the day, and his Mickey ears each had a puppy painted
on them, too. He had sewn his own vest before, so he
was looking very dapper for a fine-dressed dalmatian.
101 Dalmatians day brings out all kinds of puppies. When it’s warm and gorgeous outside, the puppies come to play
and have fun. We had to dodge a few sprinkles now and then, but over all it was a great day. We might not have had
101 puppies, but we gave it our best effort. You can see in many of the photos below, puppies are hard to round up.
If you get a few in a group, part of the others wanders off another direction. No wonder Cruella and her helpers can
never get them all together at the same time.
Some of the puppies wanted to
watch 101 Dalmatians on TV. It
kept them occupied for quite
some time.
Have you ever seen a dog
watching dogs on TV? It’s
pretty entertaining. Their
attention span can surprise
you.
Look out, puppies! Cruella is starting to try to make friends with you so she can “collect” you into a storage
place. I’m afraid she probably has no good dealings planned for you. She’s not known for being the nicest
woman in the world when it comes to dealing with Dalmatians.
It looks like the maid (Niky) has come to the rescue.
She will fight to keep the puppies safe and sound!
Well, the photographers managed to corral some of the puppies into one group before they
started wandering off again. And the maid has taken one of the youngest into her control so
she doesn’t get captured.
Aw, there’s always a love
story somewhere in a Disney
film. I guess maybe these two
are the parents to all those
puppies.
Maria wins the honor of having the best purse for the day! And her shoes are pretty
cute, too.
Again! Trying to get a group of puppies, Cruellas and the maid as well as a few extras together for one photo is almost
impossible. But somehow we usually manage to get a good photo taken even through all the chaos. This will give you
an idea of the turmoil and preparation before the good shot is taken.
