All night long the wale of boy cats screaming and fighting kept us awake. It got so bad mom had to close the rear window..Pests! Then one had to walk all the way around my house still screaming to his rival not once but twice!!! We are so tired today from not sleeping and barking at them to stop.
This evening after all the days rain mom finally let us out and what do I see ....Cats out back of My fence!!!! and he's screaming at ME now...Woof...Woof ...I gave my best furious woof and raced b
Pi& Abby:
Mom got a big box this morning and we just couldn't wait till she opened it. We sniffed and sniffed but couldn't guess what's inside..Pip thinks it's a big box of toys and treats..Silly Pip it's got to be new beds...yeah, yeah that's it, beds. I heard mom say there more to come for it so that means maybe comfy pillows right?
Mom opened it and out came this big dog bowl.......but mom I ask, how much do you think we can eat a day? Pip what you think it is? He sniffs as he c
6 weeks without a bath and they are smelling terrible...
Found my two paws a bathing solution...can't wait to get the bath...no more bending over... Horray
Plus already have the pump
One bathing system hopefully by next week. Will let you know how it works out.
Taking a break today as Abby got up several times during the night sick. Intestinal cramping, repeat throwing up and watery dirrehea. She wasn't feeling well at all by breakfast and didn't eat....so took her outside in the sunshine and used a rinseless shampoo to sponge bath her to remove the mess head to tail which I think she actually enjoyed the pampering and cuddles.
Her facial reaction was like she thought I would be mad at her throwing up everytime I cleaned it up...but I praised her
Tiling 101
Pip:
Well today Abby and I got started with a little help from mom and dad tiling the shower wall. We had to start early because dad said he's tired of waiting for the plumber who won't be back to next Tuesday ...and we're expecting the electrician to run wiring to our new dog bath today.........
(Abby interrupts) Umm Pip I think that's the humans washing area not ours.
Pip: No Abby I think it's all ours because mom tells us everyday we need a bath and soon, so I'm
Pip:
Moms really had it to easy so I decided I might worry her a bit. I haven't had the itchey rashes since I was a baby so yep...that's what I will do...breakout in a itchey rash.
I scratched and scratched till I had a raised rash and mom of course looked me over and found it right away. She sprayed me with some lovely spray and my itcheys were better in that place....but then my side started itching and I would dig and dig pulling out hair in the process. Mom put me on a nasty o
I got into a deep discussion this morning discussing black nails and the quick..... A subject that makes many pet owners go cold at the thought of doing on a month basis.
One stated bright sunlight and she could see the quick...but she's got a small chihuahua, it doesn't help me when my male has thick dragon claws. I'm trying to recede the quick on both my paws as I hear the tip tippy tap tap on the laminate flooring. They both don't have many black nails but it's nerve racking everytime I
The calendar says it suppose to be April 26... But I'm not quite sure that's right. Flowers are blooming and birds singing love songs announcing springs arrival.
But....Last nights gales announced the arrival of a arctic front from the far north coming down...Santa you got a wicked sense of humour if you sent this stuff.
Tempertures plummeted early morning and the wind had a bite that went right through you..but the good part was it was sunny....Well that didn't last......Not a day to
Had the strangest thing happen last night and frankly it's got me baffled.
Little Abby Dabby.....as I sweety call her most of the time.....Usually when she goes to bed nothing and I mean nothing wakes her up, she's out like a light till 8 the next morning. She woke suddenly last night like she had a night mare....growling at first into darkness in the general area of the stairs then barking and would not stop. She even got up to investigate barking and growling the whole time.
I got
I took myself off to town for retail therapy this morning...you know the essentials...dog biscuits, treats, chews, toys, pee pads by the hundreds .
Anyway .....spotted what I hope to be a little jewel amoung the isles.. A portable pool filter for small above ground pools...Mind was turning a hundred miles a hour...how could I use this with 2 buckets to make a home made hydro bathing pump...all clamps, hose and clamps interior filter and cap filters.... only two on the shelf and a £14 price
Pip:
I was sitting on moms lap for a well deserved nap when there was knocking at my front door. Woof Woof Woof! Abby and I was sure it was a intruder and we barked like crazy. Dad let the intruders in and guess what? It was my favorite Uncle and OSCAR!
I love Oscar so much and mom and dad are always calling his name to get a reaction out of me because my ears slways perk up and I look around....but this time There he was!
I was so excited and my tail was going ninety miles a hou
Pip:
Mom bathed us yesterday and did the full works as she calls it. I'm always such a good boy I hardly had any knots but sister?.... Well I'll let her tell you about her torture..I mean bath. Mom found a little spot on the inside my ear flap..scratching or hot spot she don't know which but she put some medicine on it and it's much better today.
Mom stayed in bed till almost lunch time...I kept pouncing on her telling her I was hungry...nothing to eat but stinky old dog food...who doe
Pip:
Mommie left us and stayed gone a long long time...I mean forever and ever...why did our mommie go away so long? Sister and I need her...I mean mommie never leaves us and she just poof disappeared.
Daddy was nice to us and taught us to eat off newspaper, went for walkies with us, bought us no- no treats, gave us jello without permission ( mommie said he didn't check the label for artificial sweetener first)...daddy kinda freaked out when mommie told him about bad artificial sweeten
Pip and Abby having a lazy day today so not much happening.
I bought a small container of strawberry Yougart to try to fool Pip into taking his Slippery Elm dosage. Abby has never had Yougart so she was very suspicious at first till Pip went to eating his off my finger tip...mmm she likes it. Pip finished first so I put the remaining runny mixture in a saucer and she dove in head first...once she came up for air this is how she looked...hahahahaha ears to whiskers but oh mom that was yummy
Abby
Yeah you read it right! That's what mama just called me . The gall of her
She got out the funny square thing she cusses at sometimes when she stands on it...Well she did it again and then held me as we stepped on it together! She did the math and that's when she said it! Abby your a Heifer Lump ! Can you believe that! Me?
Now she says I got to stop all treats and no more bacon or cookies either Some word she keeps saying ...Diet...What's that?
Brother is a lot longer
Pip
Mom kissed us and told us Happy Valentines Day but I don't know what that means.....but it was nice kissing mom back for she's been real sad and I don't like mommie sad. So I stayed in her lap a lot a she hugged and kissed me...She fixed me my favorite breakfast too! Bacon and scrambled egg...yummy.
Hey!!! Mommies putting on her pink jacket and shoes! ..I know what that means and I start doing the happy dance! She asked if we wanted to go get bone-bones for Valentines...I love bon
Like many people I've had restless syndrome for many years but of late I can't get get off to sleep till about 4 am and feel like a slug when I do wake up. I went on Pinderfest last night and typed in a search....magnesium, hot baths, exercise on and on all the ways to treat it...it can't be cured. My mother had it real bad and I never thought I would be the same way but I am.
I used something last night that is just crazy after reading the home remedy and spotting numerous suggestions to u
Got to marvel with amazement at my little junk yard dog this morning during her morning beauty treatment.
With all the ups and downs since her rescue a year and two months ago now..... she's blossomed into a paw I wouldn't reconize when I look back at how she use to be.
Finally I got control of her hair.......since I started using the secret weapon shampoo additive and hypknotic grooming spray.....she's had two shampoo's with it added to the Tropiclean and each time her hair just gets
Nooo Not me...Abby....she's so peed off with me she won't even look at me
Pipa and Abby always wakes up when hubby bring's up my hot cup of tea at 9 pm...papa always brings treats when he comes upstairs. They played and even had a few cookies with mom. Abby got the hiccups...So I turned her over to rub her belly..always a magically cure for hiccups.....I noticed a familiar friend....BUTT NUGGET.
Undoubtably hanging on for dear life since this mornings poo on her walkies......It would
Wednesday Feb 3rd, 2016
Little did I know when I woke way to early this was going to be a short but horrible day.
I was in the bathroom when my hubby shouted Hey! Come quick something wrong with Abby.....I found her coughing and gagging like she had a hair ball but otherwise alright. Pip does that from time to time so I of course just ignore it cause it just something they do.
I paddled down stairs for my first brew and Abby followed me down. I bent down to give her a kiss and ch
Abby:
Well at least the suns out but blah it's Monday and I can't quite get going today.....I ate and ate moms bacon this morning..till she only had one little piece..Hehehehe....... She's on a diet, so it's my duty to eat all her fattening stuff you see and save her from the Big Hip Police...Pssst they gonna get her though...they still wide mommie
But I save my eggs till later you know.... I may not get fed for at least a couple hours, so I always save some for those starving hours in
Sometimes I just like to open up my photos are let the sweet memories come flooding back, they always bring a smile to my face.
I got Pip at 8 weeks old, much too young to leave his mommie I know now ......but what a sweet little ball of fur as he nestled under my chin finding comfort In his new strange surroundings.
Mommie slept with me in her arms all night in her big bed...I felt so safe next to mommie and I only whined when I had to pee pee...then she would place me in
