Family


Guess who we saw this past weekend? One of our favorite cousins, Tillie! She and her brother Deuce are Boston Terriers. Deuce spent the day at home but we got to play with Tillie. It's always fun to wrestle, have a good game of tug-of-war and snuggle with the ones you love. Our mom makes a treat just for Tillie. It helps her kidneys and is easy to digest and she even named them after her: Miss Tillie's!

Bane of our existence

To say that something or someone is "the bane of my existence"
means that the person or thing is a constant irritant
or source of misery.
"Bane of my existence" has lost its edge to a large degree
over the years,
and today is most often applied to something
that may profoundly annoy us but is certainly bearable.
Meet the bane of our existence...

Rabbit Poo


We are obsessed with the wild rabbits that live in our neighborhood and are compelled to eat their poo. WE LOVE IT!

We love to chase each and every one that dares to venture into our back yard. It's our turf, not theirs. We are the ONLY ones allowed to frolic in the falling leaves and our mom's flower beds. We are the ONLY ones allowed to roll on the soon-to-be-dormant grass and play with the leaves blowing through the yard. So why do they think they can hide under our deck and run out when we least expect them to? That frightens us (well, us boys, not Tink. She is always brave). They are bigger than us!

We have decided that the only good thing about a rabbit is their poo. Mike Rowe on Dirty Jobs would disagree be we think it is delish and we can't get enough of it!

Well, time to head outside. Like Elmer Fudd always says, "We're hunting wabbits!" - Oscar and Tucker

Get Out There And Vote!

We wish we were able to cast our ballot today but since we cannot, do your duty and get out there and vote! Our family did!

If Marmaduke and Snoopy were running for office, who would you vote for?
(We're torn... 2 votes Snoopy, 1 vote Marmaduke)

Halloween

Tinkerbell here. It seems to be my turn to make a post to the blog. So, I want to know whose big idea it was to dress pets up for Halloween. My people didn't take us out trick-or-treating because the boys were already so scared. (Neither one of them are very brave - sorry Tuck and Oscar). But they did dress us up in some silly costumes, laugh hysterically and take pictures of us. (Check out the pictures)

Tucker had to wear a t-shirt with a cup cake on it. He's a boy! Boys don't wear cupcakes. (I must say though, he did look rather cute. It was the perfect colors for him).

My costume wasn't too bad. I got to wear a Santa hat bandana that my grandma made for me. I look ready for Christmas!

Now, about Oscar's outfit. What were they thinking? They dressed him up as a hotdog in a bun but his outfit looked more like floatation devices than buns. Even I had to snicker when I saw him! My people humiliated him long enough to change his outfit into his new t-shirt that reads, "Waiting for Santa".

Like I mentioned, we didn't go out for candy with our people because the boys were too scared. My people were kind enough to sit outside in the driveway to hand out candy so I wouldn't have to have a barking fit every time the door bell rang. Aren't they the best?!?

The night ended wonderfully for us because we were treated to some iced peanut butter bones that were decorated in Halloween colors. We are the luckiest dogs around! Our mom makes the best treats ever!
