My Spy assignment

Hi Evewyone..I'm BACK!!!!

I've completed my vewy dangewous and exhausting assignment successfully!

I owe all my spy knowledge to BobT. Beaw and his helpfull spy infomation..he is a mastew spy.

As some of you guessed, I went to Westminstew Doggie show in NYC.(not quite as good as MangoMinstew)
I had a supew secwet pwess Pass and wanted to show you some of the things you don't see on TV

The show stawted wif the Staw splangled bannew..aftew that it's all silent(well except fow all the hoomans talking in the audience)..not like the evening stuff fow TV whewe they announce things..so if you don't know the doggies fwom the expensive book you have to buy..you just know some numbew

I went behind the scenes to whewe the doggies wewe "benched"..I was vewy disappointed because fow the most pawt the ownews wewe not vewy fwiendly and only wanted to talk to othew ownews and handlews.

this dawling dachsie was chillin' befowe it was time fow him to make his entwance

don't you just love all those hoomans kneeling in awe, hehehehe

This is a vewy funny bweed..I think he's an impostow

a sweet dawling waiting to go on...as i said I was disappointed by the snobby cliquishness of many of the exhibitows..but the doggies wewe as oosual chawming and delightful

"Is it time yet?"

I thought I was seeing Rudy and his sissies..I just love Bedlingtons



and these cuties aways make me smile

then I spotted...(be still my heawt) An Aiweboy

and a Kewwy Blue
and the most laid back kid getting a pedicoowe and a floof up


this dawling needed a moment of pwivacy

I taped a little of the Caiwns , who, along wif the Aiwedales wewe jipped..wobbed of theiw chance to win the tewwiew gwoup....the handlew of the winning Caiwn, and the winning Aiwedale had a wowked wif the judge..sheesh..didn't they know that befowe they stepped into the wing???


no use complaining if you don't like the wesults

this fwenchie kid looked scawed

and how can they do this to a bootiful dignified , gowgeous poodel like the fouw Bs???

speaking of which..did you know that wiwey kids like me get white powdew floofed all ovew theiw legs (note to self..keep powdew by doow to covew diwt fwom stweet )

I don't think I've evew been that white

and I'm wathew suspicious of the evenness of the wusty face....(makeup?)

houws and houws of plucking and stwipping daily..I'm glad I'm not a show doggie

he is quite gowgeous , but a little too fowmal fow my taste


and then it's finally time fow theiw competition


I guess it's all wowf it when the guy kneels in fwont of you..a pawfect squawedog
(I have wealized that I will nevew come close to that, but A&A, and Luna, and Eric..they had nothing on you )




the mawch of the Wiwes..believe it ow not..that feistyness is vewy desiwable in the bweed





and when it's all ovew , they want a looooong snooze (notice that the white makeup has wown off)


This was the only wiwe I was able to see on the bench, although they awe supposed to be thewe thwoughout the day..thewe wewe fouw mowe cwates..but they wewe completely covewed, and when I twied to nicely talk to the ownew(ow handlew), They looked at me like I was something they just scwaped off theiw shoe....I guess they only love pawfect dogs and show dog ownews(ow pawspective clients)
this gowgeous aiwekid must have had a sense of the footility of twying to look youw best, when they don't even let you compete

I think a lot of my fwiends look just as faboolous ..what a hunk!


now, I couldn't believe my eyes..they wewe backcombing this booty's haiw
don't they know only Amy Weinhouse does that?

take note------------------------THIS IS A BIG BUM

that pictoowe is fow all of you who have made wude comments about my BFF Lacie's bum

speaking of Lacie, hewe is a bootiful Lakie giwl


like all of them, sweet tempewed , quiet, and lovely

myBFF Lacie and my bbffStella??????????????????pawhaps?


not to give the wong impwession..as you can see, thewe awe plenty of loving , nice ownews

and the most stylish coat was wown by a bootiful whippet (oh it's not a clothing competition?)

I asked this gowgeous giwl if she knows the whippet waggle..she looked at me wif pity and said"who doesn't"?

watching them wace awound the wing was a special tweat..I think we will be seeing some of the youngew membews of the waggle hewe soon




"what chu lookin at"?




I was astounded to see ....TANNEW ???... but it can't be , it must be Joey making a stain..but that doofus dot..I'm confoosed
I guess it's just a genewal twait of the boyz to go wound making those stains

that's all fow the fiwst day..I'm bone tiwed, and have to go to bed..but stay tuned..........
this welentlessly hooge is keeping his eaws clean fow the next days competition..

come back and see Mango's bwuvvew make an appeawance..as well as Tad's twin..and a slide show of about thwee hundwed pictoowes of evewyone

I'm sowwy I haven't visited..I hope you'we all well
love and smoochie kisses

Asta Spy

Well I'm offf!
can you guess whewe????
and what I'll be doing thewe?

I may not have a lot of time to answew all of you..I pwomise to twy, but these will be busy days
you will all be wif me in my heawt..I will be thinking of all the poow pups in Ostwalia, and Chef , who is vewy wowwied about his booboo and Willow,and Snowball , who has vewy soaw eyes, and TaYlow, and any othew fuwwkid who needs love and pwayews..I'll be wif you all while I complete this assignment(also not fowgetting sick hoomans and ones who need jobs)

I'm playing a happy tune and singing my thanks fow so many wondewful fwiends...THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I apologize fow evew doubting that you would come thwough!
you sent youw love and healing vibes to sweet Taylow, and I know you made hew pain easiew wif youw concewn..thank you again.
smoochie kisses

Asta disappointed

I am vewy sad and disappointed..I just went to check on My fwiend Ruis' bloggie, and not a single one (who said you would) left a get well wish ow pwayew fow his woofie sissie Taylow..
is it because it's mainly a cat bloggie?
if you scwoll down on theiw Bloggie , you can see theiw two woofies on oldew posts..it's not how I expect my fwiends to behave(asta shakes hew head sadly)
I love you all
smoochie kisses

Nuwsing awound the globe

Wif the help of Ruis and Karl's twanspowting machine..I was able to go to Maastwicht..the bootiful capitol of Limbouwg in the Nethewlands to be wif my sissfuws Sassy and Momo

We awwived in time fow thiew cawneval..What fun!!!

We disguised ouwselves in costoomes so Ruis and Karl, who wewe twying to have a womantic getaway, wouldn't notice us hehehehe

we hid in theiw hotel woom...I hope they won't notice us

(all above photo's by Ruis'maid Mawlene)

to see mowe of this adventoowe go to Ruis' bloggie




Meantime I had an uwgent message fwom Noah, that his Sissie Willow needs ouw nuwsing cawe..so I sent the twanspowtew to get Aggie and Lacie ...we all met up in Ostwalia
(good thing I got some clothes fow wawmew weathew at the wesowt collection fashion shows)
Poow Willow has a booboo in hew mouf..so Lacie's Special smoofies awe just what the dogtow owdewed...
of couwse Aggie thought we did evewything wong, but I think Willow is feeling a little bettew

while thewe I weceived a message fwom Ruis, telling me about his Old woofie Taylor..I packed my bags ..I knew Willow was in good paws wif Agatha and Lacie, so I could leave..I went back to Limbouwg, ( bwinging some cheewy toys to twy to cheew Taylow up)

"Probably she has had a TIA or stroke, but for a TIA it takes too long.
Taylor is home, but there's no progress since yesterday. She gets her food and water served at her bed (luckily her appetite is good -- of course labradors are renowned for having a good appetite! ;-) Only going out is very difficult, we have to hold her so she can walk a little and do her things.
Taylor feels terrible she cannot walk, play, snoop, etc... , we see it in her eyes...
but the VET is hopeful!
so with Taylor's will to get better we help her to this difficult time she feels so helpless."
I wan stwaight back to Limbouwg to be wif hew.
Pleez send hew youw pwayews and love and healing powew

Thank you so vewy much
smoochie kisses

I bwought him some pwesent and kisses fwom all his fwiends in the states. I think he was touched by all the good thoughts and wishes fwom his fwiends.

I was dying to see King Simba and pay my wespects,a dnmeet the newest membew of the woyal family..Pwincess Jasmine..so off I went to find NSF daddi and theiw house

I wanted to womp some mowe in the snow, but while simba wa game..Jazzie would have none of it...she said hew woyal toesies got too cold. she stayed in hew woyal cawwiege the whole time.



It was getting late, but Marvin Hollow Hound told me that if I kept going nowf, I could get to his house.
