Ohhhh, say can you see?

If ya do,
Take a few,

CAUSE I CAUGHT THEM FROM YOUUUUUUUU!!

Rollin' on the floor laughin' till the sip he stole from Lacie's hot carob drink pours outta his nose...


Your sister, Scruffy

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!

Scruffy, Lacie and Stanley's Place said...

Um...Asta...

I heard the whole interview you did with the press...

Your public re la shuns people did a good job with the speech...

It was sorta hard to understand with ya doin' all that um well

SCRATCHING....


Ya might wanna consider another bath?

I'm comin' over...fleas or not...

I have some cit ra nello candles and some anti flea smoothies fixed....

And a new type of shampoo....

You poor dear...

Lacie

Huskee and Hershey said...

Yikes... nooooo... NOT fleas??!!! You think a spa will get rid of those dreaded pests??

TwoSpecialWires said...

Ohhh... the zoomies you ran and the leaps you made! You must've slept like babies at night. Especially after full tummies from all that beautiful food! It looked as pretty as we're sure it tasted.

But FLEAS, Asta? NO! And trained fleas, no less! Circus fleas! They must've thought they'd landed in paradise on your fluffy white coat, having escaped from the circus. Just please PLEASE don't eat any. Fergi can tell you. The results can be really nasty.

Don't worry about catching up. We've a feeling you're gonna be running after your tail for the whole month of December. That's okay. Just make sure you make it home to bed at night. Sans fleas.

Ick.

Babystan reaches back to his tail section for a quick bite...then does the LEAN, and gets his hind leg motorized to commence scratching....and scratching...

Chin, ears, tummy....

WHAT? Oh...he determines his cell is ringin'...

His back leggie pauses momentarily...
HELLO!!!!

Oh Asta...Hi!!! Yes...I had a fabbers time with ya!!! How am I feeling? Um...great!!! Itchy? What? Noooooooooo...why? Stan turns his large dale head back and forth in confoosion...

Nope...not itchy...

I'm just goin' to catch up on my chores....

Ice skating in Rock A Fellar Center? Friday night? Sure!!!

You'll be outta the bathtub by then? Stan blushes...Now, there's no need to go to all that bathin' and trouble for my company...(which is true considering his groomer cancelled yesterday after being bitten by a ferocious kitty, and he stinks...)

What? Did I read ur blog yet? No...why? Don't? Ok...can do...

Bye, Asta

Poor dog continues scratchin' right where he left off...

Hi Asta,

Down here in LA (that's Lower Alabama, not that silly California LA) I have to take flea and heartworm meds year round. I hate it! I think you are lucky you don't have to do that. Don't worry, you'll get rid of that circus soon - just think of them giving you some country cred.

Rocky Creek Scotties and Rocky Creek Ramblings said...

This year has been extremely muggy down here and from what our Vet says, fleas still abound. We're sorry you got them and we hope it doesn't stop you from coming south again sometime.

XOXO

PS - Did Duffy get them too??

♥♥ The OP Pack ♥♥ said...

Aside from the flea circus setting up camp on your beautiful body, it looks like you had a wonderful trip. Your brother must be lots of fun - he sure loves to run fast. We would like that too. Hope the itchies go away fast.

Woos, the OP Pack

Eric said...

Trip looks wagging Asta. Now as to your little friends.Ummm. I heard live accessories are all the rage on the Cat Walk this year Asta. Now. Them fleas. What time are their performances? So I can give them a miss....haaaa!!! Mom's rushed off to frontline flat me.

Wiry loves and kisses Eric xxx

doyle and mollie said...

aw asta we've been rather sad the last couple of days but your flea tale has put a great smile back on b's face - at least they were very styley fleas!!

Gus said...

Asta and Mommi...we take Tea and Flick medicine all year here in Mayemphis too. And yummy heartworm thingies.

But we are sorry that you had to go to all that trouble to import a few fleas to New Yawk. And we hope they leave soon. Humans get itchies from them too, so tell Mommi and Daddi to be careful.

Sophie Brador said...

Oh no Asta! Are you okay? Did you have to have a flee bath? Did your mom have to wash everything in the house? I hope you are okay.

P.S. Your trip looked fabulous!

Sally Ann and Andy said...

Fleas aren't that bad. It's kinda like humans getting lice. It over now, and you just move on.

ScrapsofMe said...

Oh Asta, I feel your ITCH! The idiot Marine let me n Puffers walk in the neighbors grass...they have large yard doggies. And we both picked up some fleas. SHE was not best pleased when she came home to find fleas on both of us....Puffy got dipped, clipped and treated Sunday, all the bedding got washed n dri'd on hot. I got treated the same time as Puffy, but I still gots an itch. She thinks she saw a renegade flea but couldn't catch it. We've both been banished from the big comfy bed. I'm going to the groomers tomorrow for a clip n dip and another treatment. SHE says we probably have cosmic fleas now, since it's been 2 days since we were treated. Or maybe we just itch from the bitey marks.
Here's itching with you!

Koobuss said...

Oh no, Kousin Asta!!! Let's hope the fleas flee fleetingly.

One of my Uncle Koobusses had fleas once when he was a puppy. He was not a happy camper.

Good luck to you in getting rid of your unwelcome guests.

Love and Koobuss Kisses,
Kousin Koobie

Inky and Molly said...

OOOHHHH...those pesky little buggers, what they come to you for?? We hope your momma is on to it...
You might have to have a bubble bath & spa...
Don't be embarrassed. We've heard it happens to the best of us. Luckily we haven't had any circus of that type yet but Monga had some fun with ticks and hot spots, there are itchy also...
Don't worry, you'll be right in time for Kwissmuss!

Ruby Bleu said...

Oh Asta...
You are bootiful with or without fleas...hee hee hee! Looks like you had a WONDERFUL trip. Please share more pictures...pretty please!!!

Lots of Licks, Ruby

RILEY AND STAR MY MALTESEKIDS said...

Hi Asta,

Sorry about the fleas. Guess what they say is right. You play, you pay!

Hope your feeling better real soon. Nasty old fleas!

luv,
Riley and Star.

OHMYGOODNESS poor Asta you have circus acts performing in your backyard!!!

I certainly hope you charged them plenty for taking up your space.

Hopefully they leave town soon and find a tent to set-up in.

HUGS and scratchies for your itchies

Marvin said...

Pleased you are back from your Hols dear Asta!

Sorry to hear about the circus you have been hosting ;0D

Belated Happy Thanksgiving too.

We are way behind with the blogging, probably be next June before we are caught up with everydog......

lotsalicks, Marvin xxxxxx

Marvin said...

oooooh just watched your Smile Box thingy, your wood were you were frolicking looks very much like my wood here! Great fun to leap and fly in there eh?

Sally said...

Wow - that was one action packed holiday. We loved the pictures of you running round the garden with Duffy. Not so peaceful in the country when you two get there....

Lovely delicious dinner - was that Dame Judi Dench at the table with you? D thinks she needs new glasses - but she was sure...

Sorry about being the new venue on the traveling flea circus' world tour - they look pretty talented - you might want to at least catch the Trapeze act and the knife thrower (D's personal favourite) before you send the circus packing...

Lots of licks
Sally and Paddy

Dexter said...

Well, that beast certainly didn't need to go and blab it all over the internets. How awful for you. I have no doubt your mommi will eradicate the critters post haste.

Slobbers,
Mango

Angel Gracie=^o.o^= said...

That sure looks like the purrrfect place to have a holiday gathering. I think you and your brother were smiling the whole time you two were running around outside. I am sorry about the flea thing. It isn't your fault and you should not let that bother you. Don't worry.

Get some rest because soon you will be heading to my place. Olive will just arrive so get packed.

Hollie and Janie said...

Asta,
Sadly, fleas are part of country life! I have to use flea prevention medicine all year b/c everytime I go to my grandmama's(in the country) some critter bites me! It's terrible for us girly girls to have to endure such!
Love,
Janie

Rosie said...

Asta, No Worries - What happens in the Country stays in the Country - no one needs to know about your - uh um issue.

Scruffy, Lacie and Stanley's Place said...

Good Morning, Asta...

Yes...thank you for letting me stay the night...the sofa was perfect...am I itchy? Mais non...

Did I sleep well? Well, actually I didn't sleep at all...the one flea that you didn't drown with your incessant sobbing asked me out on a DATE!!!

He said he needed a ride so I generously allowed him to hop up on my back...he shouted directions in my ear...we had a marvelous time...New York truly doesn't sleep, does it?

Oh my...speakin' of sleep...I'm exhausted...you don't think I was to forward in allowing that flea to jump on me do ya? I mean, if I'd had to wait for him to walk it woulda taken forever to get to the club...

If ya don't mind I'm gonna go and take a nappers on your mommi's bed...

Lacie stretches out and yawns hoogely...oh my...

It must be cold and the air dryer here...I feel so ITCHY this mornin'...do you have any moisturizer I could borrow? Thanks, sweetie...I'll get it later after my nap...Lacie pulls the covers over her and begins to snore...

And the flea replication begins...

As finished by

THE NAR OR ATER

Princess Patches said...

Asta, we hope all your tiny live stock is gone by now! BTW, you might want to thank Lacie for spreading it ALL over the intersnet! How hoomiliating! But you know what they say...what goes around comes around. Karma will catch up with her sooner or later!

Aire-hugs,
Poppy, Penny & Patches

Mack said...
