Cold days call for soup!

Haroo everypup! It's Guinness, your weather grrl here, reporting that it is COLD outside. The boys love the cold and they play outside like it's the middle of summer or something. Me, I come inside as quick as a bunny. It's also cold enough that dad decided to make some chicken soup. Good thing too, he and mom have had these terrible hacking coughs for over a week now.

Anywoo, here we are, all three of us jr chefs, waiting to help dad and supervise the soup makings. We have to be sure he gets just the right amount of chicken into the pot or he'll mess the whole thing up. He'll put some other good things in the pot too, like one of my personal favs-carrots, and celery and other yummies too. Then he'll let is simmer on the stove and the whole house will smell heavenly.

Hope all of you are staying warm and toasty and out of the cold, unless you like that sort of thing.

Love and snoses,
Guinness Grrl


Pee Ess,
That wubba from the last post - it's history! The boys took it apart and now it's gone. Boys!

I love Santa Paws

Getting ready for the holidaze

Haroo, everypup & kitty! Shiloh here, fresh from the groomers. Don't I look especially white and fluffy? I'm not the only one getting ready for the holidaze round here. Guinness went to the groomers with me and we both smell so clean and fresh. Better than the mud smell we've been sporting, that's for sure. It's been really wet and muddy here and it's hard not to get it on you.

Mom's been cleaning like a madwoman and making lots of home made goodies. The photo below has the home made pasta mom's been crankin out. She and dad have a huge open house on Christmas Eve - the whole world comes to visit and eat! So, if you're in the neighborhood, stop on by. We'd love to see you! I'm pretty shy, so having another pup or two would help me get over all of the people in the house.

Season's Greetings

Haroo, everypup & kitty. Guinness Grrrl here reporting today. A while back, we reported about a photo session mom and dad took us on for their anniversary. Well, here's some of the results - our holiday greeting cards with Shiloh and me as supermodels! Mom and dad said we were very good for the photographers and we want to apologise to Stormy, of the Army of Four, because we cooperated and failed our classes of non-cooperation on that day. We'll try and do better in the future.

We want to take this time to wish everyone a Happy and Healthy Holiday Season and the bestest New Year ever!

Love and snoses,

Guinness and everyone at the Stoutino Inn and Foster Kennel

Bringing in the tree

Ciao, Everypup & kitty. Bacci here, and , for the record, I'd like to say that bipeds are pretty silly. Foster mom & dad have brought a tree into the house! Here I am, sitting all pretty next to the evidence. Why have they brought a tree into the house? They aren't using it the way I thought that they would, and they don't want me to either. But they sure are making a big fuss over this tree. They are hanging things on the branches and doing other silly things around the house too. Shiloh and Guinness say that this happens about once a year and it is worth all of the fuss because presents are involved at some point. We'll see what develops, I suppose, but I don't see any presents yet.

Mud Monster

We told you in the last post - mommy keeps wishing for winter so the ground would freeze. This is pretty much why. Daddy says I am the definition of MUD and they won't let me in the house like this. Bacci and I were just wrestling and this is how I turned out. He's just as bad but it doesn't show up as well on him. It sure was fun though!

Playin Rrrruffff

grrrrrrrrrrr........

hee hee, Ciao everypup & kitty. Bacci here. Shiloh and I sure like playin ruff. We love wrestlin and gettin dirty in the mud too. You should see the big pile of dirty dog towels mom just had to wash. She keeps wishin for the cold and snow so the mud will freeze. Shiloh just wants the cold and snow for more playin. I'll play anytime, anywhere.
