Another dog post

Oct 14

Posted by

     It is with great trepidation that I watch Miss Patty sleep on the couch tonight.  Why?  Well, she’s been wetting her bed of late.  Thank goodness the new crate pads I bought are very absorbent.  We think that, like a small child, she’s sleeping so deeply she has accidents.

     I’m only keeping her out of her crate so long so that I can take her outside later and then we’ll see if her crate stays dry tonight.

      Gavin is snoring in his crate so he hasn’t noticed that she’s not in hers.  If he did he’d be screaming.

     What a silly home we have.

     You all have a good one.

What a fun day!

Oct 13

Gavin and Patty enjoying some of the swag I brought home.

     I had a great time at the Silverwood.  Wish we could’ve done all four days of it, but am happy to have had one lovely day.  I ran into some people I knew from way back when I was showing Malcolm.  (Iffinest Hero’s Welcome)  I enjoyed seeing my mentor–Malcolm’s other Mommy–Maggie, it was fantastic to see you!  

     I got a hug from David Merriam, he was always a fabulous judge and wonderful to show under.  He treated those of us who were humble owner/handlers with respect and kindness.  He hasn’t changed a bit.

     To all you others–you know who you are–I’ll go blind trying to list you all.  Thank you for adding to a good day.

     You all have a good one!

If you are at Silverwood, say hi!

     I should’ve made tonight picture night, then I wouldn’t be sitting here frantically typing whatever comes into my head, so I can go to bed early, so I can get up early to go to the Silverwood Dog Show.  There are times that I do enjoy a good run-on sentence.

     I am looking forward to meeting some FB friends at the show.  I do hope you all remember to stop me and tell me who you are.  😀  Just keep your eyes open for:

It’s been a long time

Oct 10

Posted by

     I am looking forward to going to a dog show on Friday.  It’s a specialty show for Bull Terriers.  The biggest one in the country.  This one moves every year and when it’s this close to home, I can’t resist going.

     A dear friend of mine is driving us down.  I’m glad she is because she knows how to get there better than I do.  I’m looking forward to seeing some old dog show friends and meeting some new ones.

     Silverwood here we come!

     You all have a good one!

Silverwood is almost here

Oct 1

Posted by

     Suddenly I have plans to go to the Silverwood.  For those of you who don’t have Bull Terriers, it is the biggest specialty show of the year for Bullies.  It travels so sometimes we do get a chance to go to it.  This year it is in Gettysburg and my friend Linda and I have decided to go for one day on the 13th.

     If you are going, look for us.  We’ll be wandering around without our dogs, snapping tons of pictures, and oohing and awing over all the bullies.

     I can’t wait to see all my FB Bully Lover friends.  If it is chilly, I’ll be the one in the black hoodie with the voodoo doll on it.  😀

Bouncy bruisey Cirque du Soleil Bullies!

Sep 28

Posted by

     If my dogs had thumbs and rope we’d be in real trouble.  I believe they think they are reincarnations of the flying Wallendas.  Yesterday, they did their absolute best to imitate Cirque du Soleil with flying leaps, hucklebutts, and rebounds off the couch.

     Shades of trampoline acrobatics!  Just my luck I was in their way and became part of their crazy routine.  Yikes!  Ouch!

     If you don’t have bullies you probably will never understand how I get so many bruises.   If you do have bullies, you have bruises, and many of them you have no idea how they appeared where they did when they did.

     You all have a good one!

Patty is NOT a Chicken Dog like her brother Gavin.

Sep 26

Posted by

      Patty had a vet appointment yesterday.  She was a good girl making me very proud.  Talk about a hoot.  She managed to suck up to the vet very quickly by giving her kisses.  Then she pointedly stood on the lift table and stared at the vet waiting for her to turn on the lift and give Miss Patty a ride up.  Patty is such a silly girl.

     Before she realized it, she’d had blood drawn and a shot.  All the while, she still wagged her tail and gave kisses.  What a difference from her brother, Chicken Dog.  Leaving, she insisted on stopping and giving all the girls behind the desk more kisses.  She had to sit in the car, in the crate and wait for me to pay the bill because her Daddy wasn’t up to coming along but she had plenty of patience for that.

You all have a good one!

Silliness abounds even where there are grownups…

Sep 14

Posted by

 

     I am amazed at what can entertain grownups for hours.  I am included in that group only by age…I refuse to grow up.  Anyway, a group I belong to on Facebook got started on Frankenweenie-fying our dogs.  It’s a riot and addictive.  By the time I got away from the page to work on this, our group had 62 of our dogs and two people Frankenweenie-fied.

     The pictures are so silly most of us spent the night giggling like fools.  Yes, it is amazing what we can find amusing.

     You all have a good one!

Gavin the chicken dog strikes again.

Sep 12

Posted by

It wasn’t fair that I woke him from a sound sleep.  He was on his back, all four feet in the air, snoring to beat the band when I poked my finger into the crate and tickled his back foot.

“Want to go for a ride in the car?”  (No, I didn’t tell him we were going to the Vet’s office.)

He jumped awake all ready to go.  I don’t know why he loves going for a ride since it usually is to the Vet’s office.

Soon we were seated in the waiting room with him trying to make himself very small so he could hide under the seat.  It never works, but he still tries every time we’re there.

Blood drawn, shots done,  and soon he’s happily waiting in the car for me to pay the bill.  Another check up done–he’s fine.

You all have a good one.

Another bath? Really?

Sep 9

Patty hates water (except to drink it)  and she hates baths most of all.  She got two baths because after the first one she rolled in the mud outside.  Now she’s busy plotting her revenge on me.
