The Buster Blues

He’s back. Again. It’s not enough that Buster’s back, look where he’s laying!!!

Photobucket

Here’s a closer look.

Photobucket

He’s on my pillow from my buddies JD & Max! There I am being good, nobly lying by and allowing him to be on my pillow, while I’m over here. I may be pouting a little…I wouldn’t look at my mom person & her stoopid flashy box.

Photobucket

But guess what? Buster went home today & I got an extra special treat for being so good.

Frosty Paws!

Photobucket

Delicious doggie ice cream. I waited very patiently for my treat.

Photobucket

Then, yummmmm

Photobucket

I guess it’s not so bad when he comes, as long as there are special treats for me after!

** Please go send Digby some prayers if your haven’t already. He is having a very bad struggle against a tick bite & really needs all of our prayers and pawsitive energy.

Also Paco is having trouble recovering from a bad injury. It keeps getting infected. Please go send him some love, too.

Love From My Friends!

I’ve been very lucky to have gotten 2 new awards this past week.

The beautiful Samantha the golden gave me the very appropriate Golden Cup Award
Photobucket

The also beautiful Santa the miniature schnauzer passed on the Sunshine Award.

Photobucket

I’m supposed to pass on the Golden Cup Award to 5 friends and the Sunshine Award to 12 friends, but being a miniature schnauzer I don’t always follow the rules if I don’t feel like it.

I want to pass both of these awards to all of my friends. Maybe it’s lame to do it that way, but I love way too many bloggers to pick & choose. Please accept my awards with love & leave me a comment if you take it an pass it on!

Camera Critters

Camera Critters

I’ve been so happy to have spring here! I spent all day on Thursday out in the yard. It was 82 degrees here in Michigan. Perfect!

Photobucket

Yesterday started out o.k., but by evening it had dropped to 44 degrees! I settled back into my winter routine very quickly.

Photobucket

Yep, snuggled up under my quilt with everything but my schnozzle snuggled under the blanket! Come back spring!

Check out what the rest of the Camera Critters are doing!

By the way, Sally Ann said yes she would be my date for Twix’s date night!

Date Night!


Well Twix is hosting a date night on April 17th. I found out about it from a furrend who shall remain nameless and I wanted to ask the prettiest Welsh terrier girl in the world if she would go with me. Ahem…um..Sally Ann, would you be my date for Twix’s Date Night???

I’m sorry I didn’t ask sooner, but my mom person was at University of Michigan hospital earlier this week trying to figure out why she keeps getting sickie.

So anyway, I know it’s late notice, and a girl as pretty and smart as you might not be able to go on such short notice, but I’m hoping that you’ll agree to be my date for Twix’s party on Saturday.

Holding my breath…

I Love Spring

One of the best spring activities besides camping? Rolling in crud!

The Search For JD & Max!

Two of my very best friends are JD & Max, the fantastic schnauzer brothers from the U.K. Since we’ve met, I’ve been told that JD & Max live “on the other side of the pond”, so visits were not possible.

Well my mom person & I went camping later this week & guess what I found?

It’s the pond!! Finally I’ve found it. I can find my friends & we can eat tea & crumpets & discuss Camilla’s latest hats!

Photobucket

JD & Max live on the other side of the pond. We’re on this side & all we have to do is get to the other side.

Come on, woman, me lads are waitin’!

Photobucket

OK, I’m on this side of the pond, now to find our way to the other side…

Photobucket

Let’s head this way.

Photobucket

OK, let’s see where we are.

Photobucket

Hmm, we’ve walked part of the way around, but we’re still on this side. I can see the other side.

Photobucket

Let’s see if I can smell JD & Max while I work my way around to the other side.

Photobucket

Oh man! This doesn’t make sense. We’re back to where we started, but I was never able to get to the other side. Everywhere I go I’m still on this side!

Photobucket

Oh bother.

Camping Stories, Part 1

So my mom person & I took off for the great outdoors and had a great time. I have lots of adventures to share with you including my journey to find JD & Max, but we’ll get to that in a day or so.

The start of the trip started out in a most undignified way for me. I don’t have a carseat yet, so I had to be strapped into my crate. You can’t see it in this picture, but my crate was fastened to the seat.

Photobucket

Once we got there there was a ton of pee-mail to check out.

Photobucket

There were even some signs of spring, among all of last years fallen leaves.

Photobucket

Wait, I smell something familiar…

Photobucket

Right here next to me. It’s the elusive wild red chewy toy in it’s natural wild life setting. I need to be still so as not to let it know that I have found it and am about to pounce.

Photobucket

Rawr! I make my move & quickly wrestle the chewy into submission.

Photobucket

It even has one of my favorite treats inside…I wonder how this got here?

Photobucket

Ah-ha, sweet victory is mine!

Photobucket

I think now that I’ve vanquished my first wild predator, it’s time for a little rest.

Photobucket

No, your not imagining things, my mom person’s socks are in fact mis-matched. She actually buys them that way *cookoo-cookoo*

We’ll be back soon with more adventures from our trip!
