Simba's secwet agent pawty

I heawd that Simba is having a secwet 007 pawty tonight...I decided to dwess up and go cwash it,hehehe
Can you guess which Bond giwl I am???????
A while ago, my good fwiend Maggzie asked me to tell evewydoggie about my bweed, so hewe goes.................................
"...the wire fox terrier,according to the aristocracy,was a dog for the common man,fit only for'the traveling tinker and the itinerant rat-catcher'.....but slowly the wire-haired fox terrier became fashionable too"

The Wire-Haired Fox Terrier was developed in England by fox hunting enthusiasts and is believed descended from a now-extinct rough-coated, black-and-tan working terrier of Wales, Derbyshire, and Durham. The breed was also believed to have been bred to chase foxes into their burrows underground, and their short, strong, usually docked, tails were used handles by the hunter to pull them back out. :)OUCH!!!!!!! hehehe, actually it doesn't huwt at all to be pulled by our tails..Mommi gwabs me like that all the time.

Size, Proportion, Substance -According to present-day requirements, a full-sized, well balanced dog should not exceed 15½ inches at the withers--the bitch being proportionately lower--nor should the length of back from withers to root of tail exceed 12 inches, while to maintain the relative proportions, the head-as mentioned below-should not exceed 7¼ inches or be less than 7 inches. A dog with these measurements should scale 18 pounds in show condition--a bitch weighing some two pounds less--with a margin of one pound either way.Obviously I don't have any of these measuwement..and I'm not telling what mine awe

Although it is said Queen Victoria owned one, the Wire-Haired Fox Terrier was not popular as a family pet until the 1930s, when The Thin Man series of feature films was created. Asta, the canine member of the Charles family, was a Wire-Haired Fox Terrier, and the popularity of the breed soared. Milou (Snowy) from The Adventures of Tintin comic strip is also a wire-haired Fox Terrier.


The Wire Fox Terrier has the distinction of having received more Best in Show titles at major conformation shows than any other breed.Wire-Haired Fox Terriers kept as pets show the loyalty, intelligence, and breeding befitting such a storied breed.

We're small.., but we have no idea that we're not hooge
We love to play in the gweat outdoors,
but,we're quite adaptable, and can live in an apawtement as long as we get plenty of excercise
We were bwead to go into fiewce combat with wats and foxes.."the tewwiew leans towards foolhardiness in defending his chawges against mawaudews.."
We can wun like the wind
We can sing
We can dance
We make excellent snuggly, playful companions
some say we're difficult...."Fox Terriers are born with about four times as much original sin in them as other dogs"Jerome K. Jerome................I say phooey!" I think we're pawfect," Asta(gift from heavenKroon)

I'm not even a yeaw old and I'm cewtainly no expawt,so I'm going to ask my other wiry fwiends to elabowate on our bweed...so.....
Gussie, Asta down under,Jackson,Bussie,Jainie the Painy, Butchy and Snickers,Agatha and Archie, the Barkalotz Boys-Jake and Just Harry, Axel, Luna,Koobus, Lenny,Magic Fee, Mango and Party, Romeo,Ozzy, Scruffy,Sedona Rose, Sir Lancelot,Mackie, Tell,Norman,Banba and Bebe...
pleeze help me out here..and give us mowe infowmation on Wire
Haired Fox Tewwiers...
thanks
, smoochie kisses.............Asta

Eawly Birfday fwom Stanley

Oh My Dog...I got a hooge package..and it's not even my birfday...I wonder what it is????
Oh Fwabulous it's weally fow me..there's my name and evewything...and it's fwom my GooberBoy Stanley!
OK ,I know these awe bluwwy, but I just had to show you Stanleys stationawy with his handsome face and pawtogrwaph ..he said so many nice things to me, that I blush..and it's kind of pwivate, so I won't tell you, but even his letter was wapped in a bootiful paper , Stanley explained that he wanted me to get an eawly birfday pwezzie fwom him so that I could enjoy it fow even longer

I had to dive wight in and see what else was inside, you can't imagine all the wondewful things he sent me

Look my Stanley sent me a biglip fish...I love it!!!
I stawted to take evewytoy out..there was a football, a stuffy , my fishie, a gowgeous silver locket fow my collar, a (melt,melt) lock of HIS hair(it's gowgeous!),a magnet of Stanley that Mommi put at my height on the fwidge, so I can always see him, a bowl, two bandanas, a sticker for my maybe Vespa, another bunch of smoochie kissie stickers, and an emblem that says FOXY, that I can have Mommi sew on something wondewful
Inside this bootiful box, I found two gowgeous bandanas hand made by Stanley's Mom, one with kissies all over, and the other with moosical notes(pawfect for my concerts)
Stanley also sent me a powtable dish, and some gooberlicious peanutty tweats....well ,I had to eat some immejetly..my dish is on my whole page of smoochies he sent me, sigh!
I wight away wanted to play with my football

Mommi put some of my prezzies too high fow me to weach, she said, I couldn't play with evewything at once
This desews a vewy happy song..I can't sing along, cause my mouf is full of my silk box, that has Stanley's cuwls and my silver heawt locket in it..Mommi had to pwy it out of my mouf,hehehe
Thank you my Darling Stanley Goober Boy, and thank your Mommi too..you ovewwhelmed me with your love and genewosity..I love evewything, smoochie kisses, your fuzz butted,sweatpea, pupgirl,Asta
This is Asta's Mommi: Asta was of course overjoyed..and I know some of her friends have already sent or planned on presents for her first bithday...we thank you from the bottom of our hearts, but if you haven't done so, please just send her a card, or e-card , and if you are flush and in a generous mood, please donate to one of your animal charities instead..this little girl is loved and spoiled more than enough, and our heart aches for all the pups who have nothing...please please don't be hurt or offended that I ask this...we do love getting prezzies, but it seems unfair to get so much .

it was exciting to owder my vewy own, but I'm not suwe it was as good as all my fwiends led me to believe fwom their stowies,plus I didn't quite know how to eat it, finally Daddi had to help, and I ate it all up, and I didn't get sick in the caw after ,sio I can wecommend it

I was done and weady to get in the caw and go home

After lunch, I sat on my special pillow, and played with the toys I got fwom Maggzie Mitchy and Putter..this one that you see, looks like a mawtian in my favowitest color..I also had a gwet big glowy owange ball, that I love to wun after and use fow bowling .(the mawtian squeeks to this day..it's tewwific fow dwiving hoomans cwazy, heheheh)
I twied to sit in diffewent positions, but it was still pwetty confining after all the space at the lake
This is sooo boowing, awe we there yet???? it took fowever to get home
But finally we made it and I wan to my favowite daytime sneep place, my couch..totally zonked and dweaming of the gweat times I had Sleep tight all you cuties and have sweet dweams, smoochie kisses,Asta
