I am so thankful to receive a new award that I never saw before from Oz The Terrier. It is called the REALITY Award. Each letter of the award stands for some really cool word.
Oz, whose real name is Oscar, lives in Florida. He looks a lot like that dog Toto from the Wizard of Oz movie, which is no accident, since it is his Mom’s favorite movie of all time. He is a breed called a Cairn Terrier. His favorite food is bacon, so who would not love him! Thank you Toto Oscar Oz!
Here are the rules for this award:
1) Visit and thank the blogger who nominated you – done!
2) Acknowledge that blogger on your blog and link back to them – done!
3) Answer 5 simple questions (well, I wouldn’t call them simple, but here goes…)
A) If you could change one thing, what would you change?
Louise (aka Lulu Belle): I would change the fact that Mommy can’t walk us now because her knees don’t work. I miss our walks really really really bad and am not happy about it.
Sofie Bear: Hummm, change? I would change having to go to sleep in my kennel at night. I would rather sleep right outside it: so what if I wonder and chase cats in the middle of the night.
Noel, the Christmas Cat: I would be the only animal in Mommy’s life.
Nine, the ManCat: I would be a dog.
Baby Stella: I would raise Mommy’s bed an inch or two, so that it is easier to hide under.
B) If you could repeat an age, what would it be? Any year?
Well, we are a pretty young bunch, but I guess being a puppy or kitten at like 20 weeks was fun. (Noel 6-1/2, Louise 3, Sofie 2, Nine 2, Stella 1-1/2)
C) What is one thing that really scares you?
Louise: Pretty much everything scares me, but especially strangers.
Sofie: When Mommy gets mad and uses that BIG voice.
Noel: People
Nine: Nothing (well maybe Louise sometimes when she growls at me).
Stella: When anything or anyone moves.
D) What is one dream you have not completed and do you think you will be able to accomplish it?
Mommy: I always wanted to raise a hybrid breed of dog that would be a watcher and caretaker for children. I don’t think I will get to it this time around though.
E) If you could be someone else for one day, who would it be?
Louise: Balto (brave and fearless)
Sofie: A golden retriever
Noel: I only would be me, since there is no cat better in the world.
Nine: Houdini
Stella: Audrey Hepburn
4) Display the award on your blog somewhere – done!
5) Nominate up to 20 blogs for the award and notify them
There are so many deserving blogs, but I think I will focus on just a few REAL Winners today.
– Marking Our Territory – to Eko for dealing with the silly boots
– Misifusa’s Blog – keep spreading the love
– Peace Love & Whiskers – for amazing introductions
– My Life in Blog Years – for always hopping and hosting and having great pictures

To raise a hybrid breed of dog that would be a watcher and caretaker for children – when are you going to start working on that? 🙂 Congrats on your award, and thanks for passing it along.
