Doin' the Dew!!!!!!!!!

They let me post...they let me post!!!!! I have a lot to say....look at my large Dale mouth!
You'll notice I'm in Lacie's lifeguardin' chair....HA HA HA!!!!! I am gradually taking over alpha status.
Lacie watches me all the time....!!!! She got the best Barkday pressies from Asta, Agatha and Archie!! I am enjoying all the gifts! Lacie will be posting pix of them as soon as I allow her!
Oh, and NEWSFLASH....I think she might be sweet on a certain Wire Fox Terrier from Boston. He sent her a Valentine and she blushed to the roots of her red hair...er fur. She talks bout him ALL the time. How handsome he is, how brave and heroic...um what else.....pretty soon she's gonna be routing for all Boston teams....and she sez her tummy feels funny; bouncy like, when he limps er walks into a room. Now I'm not naming names here. Cause she'd kill me. And ya don't wanna see Lac when she's in a tither.


If you click on this photo, you will see the Mountain Dew can that I absconded from the fridge pack in the garage. MMMMMMMMM!!! The other dogs chased me 'round the yard. I bit a hole in it and was rather stunned when it sorta 'ploded all inside my mouth. After a few minutes, it just came out in a drizzle. So I bit off the end of the can...crushed it in my huge Dale jaws...and dumped it into the snow!



Using my large Dale nose, I mixed it to the pawfect DEW SLUSHIE!!!!! Yes...I know it looks like Scruff lifted his leg there...but NO...it's Dew....all three of us enjoyed eatin' it. Then we completely spazzed out from caffeine overload. Can you imagine three terriers wired on Mountain Dew??? WOOOOT!
Pee Ess Mumsie asked me to tell you guys that our Scruffy's Barkday is NOT until March. It's the other cute little Scruffy whose Barkday is in a couple of days!!! How did they get so many Scruffys in the world??????

Barkday Thoughts.........

I Hey Everydog, Hammie and the one Cat we recently befriended (we're workin' on that....we want more Kitty friends...)

It's my 1st Barkday so I get to post...('Course I post an average of 3:1; outnumbering Scruffy and Babystan. But that's what happens if you're the alpha female.)

Thanks to all who sent well wishies!!!!! It is a true gift of your friendship that I will never take for granted! I love you all!

Mumsie and I had an important talk this week. Right after she grounded me. She said she hopes when I grow up I will be a caring compassionate female who tries to make good decisions and who learns from her mistakes. That we will occasionaly NOT make the right choice, but if we learn something from it that it can be a PAWSITIVE thing.

I've thought 'bout the cheerleading outfit I picked for the game. I knew I'd get in trouble. But I wanted to wear it cuz....well...um...to be popular with the boyz. But, now I realize that it's not me. And I need to respect myself, first. So I learned something.

I guess this is part of growin' up, but Mumsie sez we will learn all our lives. I can't wait! I'll miss being a pup a little, I guess...it was a pretty innocent time. But, I'm ready now to start lookin' at things from other animal's perspecives a bit now...ya know walk in the other dog's, kitties or hammies paws. See what I can do to be a voice for kindness and compassion.....

That's what we talked about.......

Miss Flamingo Has Arrived!!!!!

Hi Everyone!!!!!!! Babystan here! I wanted to show you the photoshoot from the HUGEST box of pressies that arrived last week from Gooberstan and Gooberstella! Check these out!

Ooopsie...there was a photo before this that was a great butt shot of Scruffy for anyone who really cares to look at it. Blogger probably automatically deleted it as being too ugly. But....look at ALL THE STUFF they sent! AND, what in the world is this large pink bird.....But, before we can explore that, Scruffy nabs one of the beef puffs...MMMMMM....if you can see he's hidin' behind the chair.....Mumsie only wanted it so she could take the plastic off first. Sharpest tool in the shed, that foxie wire!


Scruffy has some darn big fangs and he has his famous death grip on it. (Any other doggies that do a death grip? We wanno know!) Mumsie's lucky he didn't take her hand off.........




That bird is like watching me......hmmm.........




I snatched the bird up, but she flew in the sink. Not that Mumsie doesn't find Goobermud sacred.....but I was chewin' the bird and gettin' sacred Goobermud all over the sofa.
So Mumsie gave her a bath....and wasted all of that sacred mud!
(Lacie: I coulda used it for a mud face pack...I'm sure that's how Stella keeps her youthful complexion.........)







Here's Miss Bubbles....Daddy came home from work and said there must be a reason WHY in the (bad word) we had a pink flamingo in our dishdrainer. Mumsie said it was a long story...he said he didn't even want the short story and went and hid behind the newspaper. But the Miss Bubbles was watchin' him....just waitin' to attack. She didn't but she's just waitin' for the right time!




LOOKIE at all of the stuff they sent....this was celebrating my arrival to Scruffy and Lacie's Place. (Course now it's Stan's Place, but who's to quibble.....)

We are some spoiled rotten Terriers!




DOES THIS LOOK FAMILIAR???????????
Yeppers...I look like my mentor...my Hero.....the one whose name I stole....(well, Bruvver stole it...Mumsie wanted to name me Dale....how unoriginal.) Miss Bubbles is fab....I gave here some Goober butt nibbles....there were directions in the package from Stan, himself. How to Nibble on a Flamingo....


We have the bestest friends.....I never dreamed of coming to a home that welcomed a new Dale with such Joy! To all who welcomed me...plus Stan and Stella....you and ur Girl are the best.....AND tell ur Girl to hurry up with that thesis......
We love ya and miss you, Guys!!!!!!!!!!!


Babystan!

Sniff...Sob....Woe Is Me...


Mumsie is SOOOOOO mean. She told me I was grounded for Koobie's Ski Pawty, based on my "inappropriate cheerleading outfit that showed a complete lack of morals." OR...I could wear this horrid outfit EVERDAY until the pawty and maybe even TO the pawty....'cept I think I'll freeze. (Scruffy: "Lack of clothing didn't seem to bother you at the last pawty.....")

Sniff...sob....whine.....I have NO choice...I have to wear it...look at those little stoopid pants with the ruffles and the shoes....NOOOOOOOOOOOO! I will never live this down. (Scruffy: "You're probably not gonna live the LAST outfit down either....I mean I even saw some dogs blushin..."

Lacie: "And who are you, the moral police, Scruffy?"

Scruffy: "No, just a concerned brother who loves you. Sometimes, Lacie, life's got rules...and ya just have to live with them. All behavior has consequences....ya may as well learn that before your first Barkday."

Lacie: "Don't even remind me...my first Barkday is this Friday....and I'm stuck in this outfit...I think I'll go and hide behind the chair."

Scruffy: "Would you like a lollipop?"

Here'sCheerin' for the Boyz!!!


Okay...so I said I wasn't wearin' that horrid cheerleader outfit Mumsie picked out. So how's this one? Lookin' into my crystal ball, I'm figurin' I'm grounded for at least a day. Perhaps if you doggies could tell Mumsie that would be cruel...that I'm only tryin' to express myself....it might help.


Ya gotta admit...this IS SO NOT ME.



Joes Stains snapped this of us....on our way into to do a little gamblin'. Babystan LOVES to gamble....he um...lost. Scruffy lost, too.

La la la la la la la.....I didn't.

Mule-Headed Babystan!!!!!!



Well...one of Mumsie's nicknames for Babystan is "Horsehead." I have to admit this pix I snapped it taking his nickname to new heights...or perhaps lows as they are on the mule trip to the BOTTOM of the Grand Canyon. No, I did NOT think of this myself. I had NO idea that Scruffy was gonna ride Babystan all that way, plus make him carry a cowboy, too!!! But what a fab idea! Look at the way he's tossin' his Dale/Mule head. Probably flies. I sprayed him with a can of fly spray. He's really gonna stink on the planeride home now. Muzzer said she'll toss both of em in the pool. I think it's gonna be a necessity now. Had to be a long hike for both him and his riders. Scruffy is walkin' in a whole new way tonight. SADDLE SORE!






I thought I'd share some pix from the mud bath Scruff and me took today. Look at that bright Arizona sun. Haven't seen that in the Burgh since last summer.



Seemed prudent for Scruff and me to rinse. Didn 't want Muzzer tossin' me in that pool!!!!!




Oh, these above two photos are too DEPRESSIN' for words. These are the outfits Mumsie said I could choose from for the cheerleadin' that we girlies are gonna do this weekend.


News Flash. NO. Like NOT. I wefuse to wear that childish outfit. I am almost 1 year old. Not happening.

Arizona, Here We Come!


I hear the mighty engines of Aire Ruby as she's comin' in for a landin' on our cul de sac. Babystan has his large Dale tail tucked...he's skeered of all the racket.

I have my sunscreen, my bikini, my cheerleader's outfit, my pretty dress for the dance...Okay, okay....Boyz, get my suitcases! Yes, ALL of them....you guys didn't pack ANYTHING?? Not even a change of underwear? Oh my....They may have the whole side of the plane to themselves on the way back after ridin' the mules in the Grand Canyon.


This is where I will be.....the Spa. Boyz, I'm comin'! Drat these heels on this ice. Wait up....and preorder me a Dogtini!!!!!!!!!

Hot stone massage barks.....
