I appreciate each and every award that I have every been given.  Thank you thank you thank you.  We received this award last year, so I looked at our answers to see if they changed and they had not (except I might start calling Sofie, “Pork Chop” instead of “Gummy Bear.” Check out my answers at: 12 Cupcakes for DogDaz.

1.23.13 Wordless Wednesday: Don’t Go, Peanut

We love you Peanut.

If I sit on Peanut, maybe she cant go back to school.

Ok – so I put a few words in the captions.  The pictures really do tell the story however and the dogs are not happy when Peanut goes back to school (far away), which she did this week.  They love to play with her and especially lie on her bed while she reads and computes.  See you soon Peanut!

This is a Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop. Thanks to BlogPaws for the hop. Head over there and see what they are blogging about.

1.22.13 Meet Mini Beaver

BeaverRemember Beaver? (Check out: “Good Night, Beaver” for more details)  Beaver is Sofie’s lovey.  Beaver goes everywhere with Sofie and she can’t sleep if she doesn’t have him.  Beaver was a toy that was actually bought for Louise the day I brought Sofie home to live we us.  But Sofie decided it was hers, just like she does every toy in the house.  Beaver is very important and I now keep him locked up in the kennel during the day because (1) if Louise gets ticked at Sofie, she tries to rip Beaver just to upset her and (2) Sofie tends to get a little protective of Beaver.  

I find that some dogs really have an attachment to certain toys (like Sofie does) and others could not care less (like Louise).    Because Beaver is now locked up during the day, Sofie has taken to carrying around an ‘airdog’ and whining and carrying on over it instead.  At least the ‘airdog’ is a bit more durable, especially out in the yard (where I try to make sure Beaver never goes).  One night Beaver did go in the yard and you had to see me walking around with the flashlight to try and find him so that Sofie could go to bed.  Oh my, what we do for our furries.

So the other day V came back from the pet store with something really amazing for Nine.  A mini Beaver.  Now the 2 best friends, Sofie and Nine, have their own matching lovies.  Awwwww.  Nine’s however, you can fill with catnip.  Too cute.

I know that toy is around here somewhere.

Where is that fox?

Mom!  I can;t find my fox, do you know where it is?

Mom! I can’t find my fox, do you know where it is?

Mom! Louise has all the toys and she isn't sharing.

Mom! Louise has all the toys and she isn’t sharing.

It was a rainy Monday and Mom couldn’t walk so we were stuck inside.  Louise wanted to find something special to play with.  We removed every toy from the toy box but that wasn’t enough, she was on a mission.  I went to mope because Louise was having all the fun. Then… I saw it. – Sofie Bear

Hehehe.  Look what I got, Louise.  Nana nana na.
