Shiloh and Misty are very excited about Hike n Howl and just can't seem to keep still. They should be resting, saving their strength for the day tomorrow. Misty has been practicing her kissing technique all week to be sure she can win the kissing contest.
Meanwhile, we think Guinness is planning a party here at the house because she won't have the two white ones under foot. She's been too cooperative while Mom's been cleaning the house this week. We hope we meet lots of friends tomorrow. Join us if you can, stay tuned for pictures and updates if you can't. And it's never too late to sponsor!

Playin ball with daddy
Haroo, Everypuppy! Misty here to tell you about my dad's new trick. We had a really great time at the dog park yesterday, even if we were the only pups there. It was a little humid, but it was early, so it wasn't too hot. Anyroo, I found a ball that somepuppy left behind and taught daddy a new trick called, "throw the ball, human." He did very well, after some initial training.
Now, before you huskies get upset about my "doing tricks," remember, I am training dad. And, I am half GSD too. Guinness trained dad to throw the freebee for her a long time ago. All she needs to do is bring it to him now and he does just as he is supposed too. So, I thought that a little training session of my own was necessary.

Misty's Yarn
Haroo, Everypuppy! Misty here. Look what mom made. She worked hard on that. Her paws are always playing with those little sticks and yarn and this is one of the many things that happened. Then we discovered that she can put it on. I guess that's good since she doesn't have enough fur. I don't understand her color choice, tho'. Don't you think white would be better? But this color sure shows off all of our contributions to this project.
Mommy looks sleepy here - this was taken first thing this morning before she went to wrrrk. I am usually very camera shy, but I wanted her to know how much I wanted to go outside when she was done showing off.
Now she's gonna work on other projects for little bipeds & this interesting holiday that Shiloh & Guinness refer to as "the day millions of people come to our house and eat food, pet us dogs, then mom and dad go to sleep, wake up and everybody gets to open presents" day.

Pinkness
Haroo, Everypuppy! Our extra handsome Pippa has been concerned about his extra cute muzzle turning pink. We think it's just him blushing over all of his girlfriends. We did promise to tell the story of when Guinness turned pink.Once upon a time there was a sweet puppy at a local pet store where they take unwanted litter puppies (no puppy mill puppies!). There she was, all curled up, the only one of her litter there. Mom fell in love & took her home as a birthday present for daddy. She met her big brother General and life was good for a few days. Well, it turned out the puppy brought home a virus and her immune system was really struggling to fight it off. That allowed evil puppy mange to take over about 80% of our sweet baby girl. She was loosing all of her pretty fur and just looked naked, pink and sad.
Off she went to the vet. He said mom & dad had to put this nasty, icky stuff all over her to kill those evil mites. It smelled like chemicals and mom was scared that the stuff would be worse for her baby girl than the mites. Thank goodness Guinness finally got rid of those nasty critters. This picture shows her at about 1 year old, still pink, but getting her fur back. Look at those long legs & ears!

Weekend Adventures
Sunday is our day of rest after Saturday adventures.
Our first adventure was Shiloh's second visit to the library. We were their first, so we had a captive audience.
More kids came in as the afternoon progressed. He's actually looking like he had a good time. He has his own groupies now. Daddy has a good time too.
After we got home, dad decided it was time to take down the dead pear tree in the lawn as well as the sick peach tree. We played in the yard and mom decided to get some video of Misty for the Petfinder venue MaPaw uses.
Not too long after this video was taken, Misty apparently got into eating some of the butternut squash leaves from the garden. She didn't eat her breakfast that morning, so she may not have been feeling well. Well, she started to be sick and threw up some blood. Mom & Dad quickly went into action mode and took her to the Vet ER. They were gone a good long time. We were really worried, cuz they forgot to feed us dinner! It had to be bad if that happened. When they came back, Misty told us about visiting the the ER, and the doc gave her 3 shots. Ouch! But the shots helped her to feel better. And we finally got our dinner.
So, today we are all just taking it easy and sleeping a lot - especially mom & dad. Mom made us all some food that was easy on our tummies, cuz Guinness hasn't been feeling well either. We are crossing our paws and hoping Shiloh doesn't get the doggie flu as well. Misty is going to visit Dr. Don, our regular vet, on Wednesday to follow up and check out a lump on her hip. Too many vet visits! We need a vacation.

Middle Name Meme
Jinx, a very pretty Siamese Cat with bewootiful blue eyes, had this meme of facts about middle names. Since we doggies sometimes have middle names, we thought it might be fun to try.
1. Post the rules before you give the facts.
2. List one fact that is somehow relevant to you and your life for each letter of your middle name. If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had.
3. When you are tagged you need to write your post using your middle name and facts about it.
4. At the end of your post, choose one dog to tag for each letter of your middle name. Be sure to let each puppy know she/he has been tagged. (It's okay if you don't do this... tag who you want to tag!)
Shiloh will start. Mom says his middle name is Alexander
A=Amazing blue eyes
L=Lovely soul
E=Excellent companion
X=Xceptionally good lookin
A=Always happy to see you
N=Never too tired to play
D=Darling tender kisses
E=Elegant
R=Really shy
Guinness is next. Her middle name is Marie.
M=Mostly black & tan
A=Always a lady
R=Really pointy nose, good for goosing daddy after his shower
I=Ideal grrlfriend
E=Excellent watchdog. She even barks at the invisible
Misty, last, but not least. Her middle name is Ann.
A=Always kissing
N=Never too tired to give kisses
N=No one is exempt from kisses
Okay, let's see. We should tag Kelsey Ann, Echo and the Army of Four to get things started
