Saturday

 Saturday morning we went to the Devil's Elbow, as usual.

Daisy

 It was quite frosty when we got there.

 But when the sun came out, the frost disappeared.

 We love running around....especially Roxy.

 I found some great grass to eat.

 Roxy and Bella went ahead, to see our friends.

Then we found out that Fred wouldn't be coming.

Big Fred, the gentleman....

Max, Big Fred, Jake and Buddy in front.

had jumped his front fence at home and attacked a small white, fluffy dog who went over the bridge.

We don't know why.

But Fred was sentenced to go over the bridge, too.

We have mixed feelings.  Fred was always so gentle with us and all the dogs at the river.  He was well known around town at various sausage sizzles.  The young ranger who had to take him away was very upset. 

 However, we know how SHE would feel if we were attacked, so we feel sad for the little dog and his peeps as well.

It's just a sad situation all around.

Goodbye Fred.

Wordless Wednesday....nearly

Seen at our local RSPCA Million Paws WALK!!!

 First of all, we'd like to apologise to our good friend Corbin on missing his BIG Day!

We've read so many blogs about Pitt Bulls, that we don't think we can add anything, BUT we want you to know, that because of the 'dangerous dog' laws here, we've never met a Pitt Bull in the furs.  However, through the blogs of our Pittie friends, we have learned so MUCH!  We'll never judge a breed by what's in the news and we tell everyone we know.  As pointed out many times it's the humans!  When we see mistreated dogs, who still have the capacity to LOVE and forgive, we are amazed!

Look at that handsome face!

 Corbin, Happy Birthday from us slackos. We know you had a BLAST with your wonderful peeps and fosters!

Daisy:  Where are we?

 Yesterday, I went for a ride with HER.  This isn't unusual.  I, Daisy, love car rides, so I sometimes go places alone with HER.

BUT....LOOK AT THIS!!!

 I am IN a shop!  Yes, we have a new PetBarn in town.  It just opened up last weekend and they let DOGS in!  I've NEVER been in a shop before.

These cats (who are looking for homes) couldn't believe their eyes!

 I checked out all of the fashionable gear.

 But didn't get anything.

There were some dogs looking for homes, too.

They are up for adoption from the local shelter.

  There are NO PUPPIES on sale here.

 Oh, except little Missy.  When we stopped to take her picture, the staff got all excited and thought we were interested in adopting her.  But we had to say that our little house was FULL.  We hope Missy finds a home soon.

 In the week that they'd been open they'd rehomed 30 animals!

Sometimes humans just have to see the gorgeous animals that are available.

 There was stuff everywhere to look at!  I was trying to look in all directions at once and nearly got whiplash!

The staff all came over to say hello to me because most of them had never seen a scottie in person, but I was too busy to waste time letting them gush over me.

I checked out all of the treats and was so excited that SHE couldn't get a photo.  I also got to sample some AND choose some to take home.

I chose venison ears and Wellness cookies--fish and sweet potato, and peanut butter honey....

We all had some when I got home.

It was fantastic UNTIL I spied THIS!  A car wash for dogs!

There always has to be a thorn.

Sunday

 Sunday morning we FINALLY got in a short walk.  First one since the 'Unfortunate Incident' of Thursday morning when an unleashed pup came up BEHIND us and we lunged HER word not ours to say hi, causing HER to twist HER bad knee with a sickening crunch.


SHE hobbled home and sat most of the day with heating pads around her knee and pain killers.  


Then the rain set in, so we had to practise for our Olympic Sleeping event....Friday and Saturday.


By Saturday morning with knee bandage in place, SHE did manage to hobble to the Farmer's Market, held in a parking garage because of the rain and get a two-week supply of treats.  So we think we were forgiven.


Sunday morning there was a break in the weather and we went for a walk.  Oh, Thursday afternoon, AFTER the 'Unfortunate Incident'  Roxy's new martingale collar arrived....isn't THAT typical! 
 It turned cold, for HER.  Remember we don't have central heating--just a little bar radiator. So we cuddled up on the couch and watched--

 Naturally our favourite part is 'God loves a terrier'

 Bella watched the whole thing.  Roxy and I did some more sleep practise. 

And SHE performed some more surgery.

So look who's back!

Nose a bit  blunt, less spines BUT his squeaker still works!

Round 2

  Mutant Echidna

Ta - Dah!!

Imagine evil laugh...

Daisy

Those crazy, nearly indecipherable word verification thingys.

Do we have them on our blog?

We removed them once.

Bella still loves watching television.  She watches anything.

 Here she is watching some

bull riding!

Have a happy weekend.
