All set, Ernie!

Have a GREAT WEEKEND, everyone!

The Birthday Parcel

Over a WEEK ago we got this parcel in the mail.

It was from Ernie (and Frankie) for Roxy.

As you may remember, we weren't allowed to open it straight away.

But Ernie did say that because it was nearly 

my (Daisy's) Gotcha Day,

and there was something for Bella and me, we could open it.

Roxy immediately grabbed the alligator stuffie.

But she had to wait for her other presents.

Look at all the stuff!

Ernie and Roxy have a special Antler date every day. 
 They worked out the time so they could chew together.
Roxy took that antler to her hide out!

Then look at this, deer jerky! 

For all of us.  OMD it is soooooooooo delicious!

Bella and I got matching collars. 
 I wore mine to the Million Paws Walk.

Roxy got a new collar and a fridge magnet with an Ernie's picture.

Ernie has a matching collar!

They're going steady now.

Don't our collars look fabulous?

Happy Birthday, Roxy!

We had a special post  to show what Ernie sent Roxy (and us) for her birthday

 and the #!@#%&* computer won't load the photos.....Grrrrrrrr!

Cake:  kangaroo mince (ground) with cottage cheese/ pumpkin/apple puree icing.

At the Million Paws Walk, one of the local VETs--not ours luckily--had a stall.  

They  had a scale for weighing  your pets.

Our friend Zuleika got on and got 2 (two) sample packets of WEIGHT REDUCTION kibble!

I, Daisy, got on and received a sample bag, filled with advertising stuff about that VET and a pedometer so SHE can see how many steps SHE takes.  (We have shorter legs so we take more.)

NO TREATS!

But worst of all was this leaflet...

We furkids at Downunder Daisy feel that this information should NOT be given out willynilly and may well be dangerous in the hands of treat-giving peeps.

There is so much room for abuse or misTREATment as peeps try to adapt this information to our usual treats.
We may become Treat Deprived.  Just sayin'.

We want to see the empirical evidence for these claims.  
We mean, who's giving a cat a single potato chip?

What do you think Blogville??

Million Paws Walk 2013

Today was the 2013 Million Paws Walk.  It's an annual fundraiser for the RSPCA.  This year there were 20 venues and all the walks started at 11 am.

We had the largest turnout in 12 years.

I'm here, we can start!

 This year was a toss-up between Roxy and me as to who should go--Bella can't cope with crowds. 

 My good manners won out again.

I met loads of new dogs and some of our friends.

 We walked up to Sandy Beach and back.  

SHE said I wasted time sniffing and leaving pee-mail...as if!

  
 Some pups were more interested in playing than walking.

When we came back, Roxy's zoomies buddy, Buddy, was there.

Good thing, I came and not Roxy.

They are crazy together.

Buddy looking the picture of a well-behaved dog.

We sat on the hill and watched all the games.

This little pup came over to say hi to me.

 Remember the lady who walks her Akitas and sheep?

She was there with one of each.

I had a close encounter with the sheep.

Look!  No fence!!!!!

 Even though I couldn't convince the people near us who were eating that I never get fed.....

It was a great day out!

(Don't worry Ernie, Buddy and Roxy are just friends.)

Bella

SHE's been playing with old photos and editing programs. 

Early Morning Walk

We remember EVERY place we've EVER seen a cat.

Bella still has to be on the lead because she knows where she can get under the fence.
