Rainy Days and No Compootews

As all you pups and hammies and NOMSSF know by now..I was out of commisssion fow an etewnity..so I had to find diffewent ways to entewtain myself..I hope this nevew happens again, but some of the stuff I did can be useful fow wainy fall and wintew days...fow instance:

I decided to leawn how to play pokew! The fiwstest thing you have to do is pwactice a pokew face!!
that means, eithew you get a lot of botox injections...ouch! yuck!!! ow just pwetend you'we stoopid and have a bowed look that says I'm not thinking anything at all! I know this is vewy hawd fow us doggies, since we'we NOT stoopid, plus we have vewy expwessive faces, but with enough pwactice in fwont of a miwwow, it can be achieved!

You have to make suwe you have tons of money so that you can stay in the game
When you awe delt youw cawds.....You don't want anydoggie to know what cawds you have..so you hold them close to youw chest
if you don't like youw cawds.....you can say mowe pweeze,and change some of them
Then you have to say things, like, I'll see you, ow the pots wight (don't ask me why)
Ummm..the thing is..if you want to see the othews cawds..sometimes it's a bad suwpwise.............I weally thought I had a good hand befowe I saw youws..sigh!
and the hawdest lesson..you have to know when to fold them! Now listen pups and hammies this is impowtent--YOU DO NOT FOLD THE CAWDS INTO BITS!!!!! To fold means you puts youw cawd upside down on the table and you awe quits.

Well that's all I know about pokew..xept it's lots mowe fun if thewe awe mowe than one of you!

Ummm, let me just see..do i have evewything?

I have all my stuff..my toofbwush, my fwoggie in casre no boyz awe thewe to snuggle and spoon me at night, and I aweady stuffed the punkincake I made into my twusty backpack..I hope it doesn't get smooshed!
I've put on my backpack, but fwoggie doesn't want to stay in, he's so excited about the pond he can't contain himself...I know my eyes still look funny, but i pwomise I'm not contagious anymowe..so don't wowwy my fwiendz
I think I'm weady
The anticipation and packing got me weally tiwed..

I tookt off my backpack, took out my fwoggie and went to sneep
I hope to see all of you at the big pawty! Happy Birfday my Sweet Butchy cousin-Love!

NotShopping, and Shopping

Mommi and Daddi and I went fow a walk awound ouw neighbowhood..

thewe's a little fuwnitoowe stowe,whewe my pawents have bought a few things yeaws ago..and we thought we'd see what they had..
just window shopping...
and look what was in the window!!!!!!
I mean aside fwom the weflection of Mommi.....

it was totally full of Wiwe Fox Tewwiew stuff..it was all fwom the estate of some lady who was cwazy about foxys..which means she wasn't cwazy at all..she had paintings of them and toys and photogwaphs..it was weally cool..but they want to sell it as a whole..and that means gweat big bucks! so no shopping fow us! but what a fun thing to see.

This was one of the paintings of Wiwe Fox Tewwiews in the stowe window
We went inside the stowe to get a closew look...this doggie weminded us of Jackson's fwiends
and Lacie's new boyfwiend
Siw Dunstan

This was fwom a scwapbook that they had
Daddi had to lift me up so I could get a bettew look,heheh I look supew awkwawd,he didn't do a vewy good job of holding me
When I got home fwom my not-shopping..thewe was a suwpwise!

Mommi had owdewed a coat fow me fwom SNITCHYBUG DESIGNS it's Butchy and Snickers' Mama...she makes kootoow clothes fow doggies! and I got lucky enough to have this coat made fow me..to my exact measoowements! no one else fits it!!

I think this is a pawsome coat!!soft,and wawm and the most bootifullest wed in the wowld!..
even with my messed up eyes, I look pwetty good!

I suwe wish whoevew did this global wawming thingy would cut it out so it wouldn't be 80 plus degwees in Oktobew and I could weaw my bootiful coat!...sneep well little doggies and hammies and hoomans too....smoochie kisses,Asta

Blessing of the Animals

My Pawents don't nowmally go to chuwch,but we like to go be with all ouw doggie neighbows to this event on St Fwancis of Assisssi day..he loved a ll living cweatoowes they say..and that's a vewy good thing!
This was befowe I got sick...the blessing of the animals..thewe is a vewy big spectacoolaw vewsion at the Cathedwal of StJohn The Divine..where they have ephelants and evewything, but this is just a little local chuwch in ouw neighbowhood..thewe's cats,and bunnies and biwds,and of couwse doggies galowe
I apologise for the bluwwy pictoowes,but Mommi kept getting jostled,and we kept mooving hehehe..but most of the time we all behaved vewy well and sat in the pews like little angels

This is my fwiend Rudi..he hasn't been well lately and has spent way too much time at the vets, he's finally feeling bettew fow now at least..I suwe hope the blessing helps him stay well.
This Welsh Tewwiew looked like a little sheep dog he was such a fuzzy cutie
This handsome boy is Harry so vewy well behaved
This is my little fwiend Bacci fwom the wun..isn't she a cutie?Thewe wewe lots of doggies we didn't know but I thought you would like to see the vawiety

I was swiveling my head fwom side to side to twy to catch all the doggies as they went by

hoomans and theiw pets went up the isle to the fwont to get the blessings....it's pawsome
some of the doggies wewe weally big,so the ministew had to scwunch down to bless them

I twied to see how many of the doggies wewe familiaw..a lot of them I've seen walking in the neighbowhood,but we don't know each othew well......




can you see the bootiful banana I'm weawing..it was made by Butchy and Snickews' Mama..it has a tewwier pwinted on it..I also think the combination of wed,pink and owange is especially nice fow a giwl
It's awaays fun to gossip aftew chuwch,hehehe

Aftewawds..we all went to the schoolyawd fow weception with punch and cookies both Daddi and I wewe walkinfgfunny cause I was pulling and he was slumping..(tall guys do that appeawantly)So what do you think my fwiendz??do I look especially angelic aftew my getting all blessed up??
