Our new friend Snoutbeagle gave us a thinker award! We are so honored it made us BArooooOOOO! It made Peaches blush.Bella says, "Who us?" We think Diesel must've seen our Poppa's bumper sticker that says, "My beagle is smarter than your honor student." Hah! Not really. Diesel says he awarded us the award cuz of our link to BREW, Beagle Rescue Education and Welfare, an organization to find forever homes for discarded beagles and help educate their new families about caring for them. Diesel was adopted from BREW!

Here are the rules attached to the Thinking Blogger Award:

1. You must write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think. (No squirrel or cat blogs, they'll just make you hungry.)
2. Acknowledge and link to this post.
3. Optional: Proudly display the 'Thinking Blogger Award' with a link to the post that you wrote.
4. Tell your humans to fork over the treats

We are awarding this award (is that redundant?) to Tatum Tot, a real thinker pup who is going to school, Abby of Abby & Sophie because Abby went to puppy school, agility beagle Xsara because she does lots of learnin' to do all that obstacle stuff so well, Camry the Guide Dog Puppy because, well, need we explain??? And last but most definately not least, Mitch of Maggie & Mitch. We remember how hard he worked last fall learning to climb the stairs. He is such a smart boy!

We chose these thinking doggies because their peoples believe in getting them an education. Its the only way for a dog to get ahead these days. Otherwise, if people and their pups don't learn how to communicate, everyone just gets mad, and lots of doggies end up in shelters.

Me (Eddie), Lady and Bella were rescues. Luckily our new Momma and Poppa learned how to communicate with us so we can all get along better. Peaches has just been a spoiled rotten brat child since birth. Its pathetic.
BTW, No pics of me tonight. Momma just attacked me with the clippers and cut all my hair off. I'm going to have to put on my blue cammo fleece suit that Butchy & Snickers' Momma made me to stay warm!

Whoofs & Baroos,

Momma's Helpers

We're bored. There's just not much to do. The snow is melting and the yard is icky (says Momma) so we can't go out cuz we will just make tracks in the house. Hmmmph.


So, me and Bella decided to help Momma do the dishes. Mmmm. Its a fun thing. There was some really good stuff on the cutting board. Here I am 'prewashing' it for Momma. Hee Hee!

Have a great week all!
Baroooooo!
Peaches

Snowflakes

Snowflakes sure are pretty. We got a bunch more of them today.

If we had fingers and opposable thumbs, we could get some paper and scissors and make some fun snowflakes. Here's a fun link. Give it a try. You don't need fingers, just grab your mouse with your paws and start cutting. Have fun!

Baby Casey Update

Casey's Poppa sent this picture of her to our Momma. As you can see, Casey is doing a great job getting comfy on the sofa. We hear that she loves her little people siblings and is doing well. She's still having a little trouble with the potty thing, there's an accident every now and then, and she chews on stuff and mostly she likes to 'share' the little peoples' snacks with them.

She is loved, and we're sure she is giving lots of love, too.

Happy Birthday to Meeee!

It was my barkday Thursday. I am TWO years old. We had a little barkday treat that Momma gave me. It was pepperoni flavored Woofy Pop Popcorn. Mmmm. Doesn't it look yummy all warm and smellin' good right out of the cooker box. (I think they call it a maker-wave or something.)Momma passed out tidbits to us. I was a good girl and shared with my siblings. Mmmmmm. I am in my Terrible, I mean Terrific Twos. I'm feeling very reflective in my adulthood. This is me and Sissy Bella gazing out the window, waiting for squirrels or cats to visit. Butchy & Snickers gave us this award. They are such good buddies. We would like to award it to all the DWB'ers for being such good blogger friends!
Be good to each other everydog and Hampsterriers and Cats.
Pooches Smooches,

Phantom Photos

Who knows what happened on the last post to the pictures! You just can't trust paws. The pads are too close together to hit the right keys, things get posted before you want them to be. It can be very frustrating. Hoomans do NOT know how good they have it with those opposomable thumbs.

This brings up a question. What would YOU do if you had opposable thumbs? Hmmm?
Peaches: Obviously I would open the fridge and start EATING!
Bella: Throw my own toys, then join Peaches at the fridge.
Eddie: Nothing. I'm happy the way I am, thank you.
Lady: Huh. Did somedoggy say something?

We challenge Sherman, Penny & Lola, Butchy & Snickers, and Snowball to tell us what they would do if they had opposable thumbs.

Can't wait to hear, guys!

All Dressed Up

The snow started melting off today. Our yard has turned to mush. Momma and Poppa took down the outdoor Christmas decorations finally. They couldn't do it before because the decorations were stuck in a foot of snow and ice. While they did that, we got to play outside. It was way fun. We ran and ran and chased squirrels and barked at the neighbor doggies. Look how dirty Eddie is! Wow. What fun!

Then, Momma called us in one by one and stuck us in the bath. After that we were all shivery so Momma got us all warmed up in our doggie warm-up outfits. Don't we all look spiffy.I think she washed Eddie's eyes out. Where are they?????

And my sissie Bella is so spiffy in her sweats. I think she's an autumn, though. She might look good in a nice rich burgundy. Lady wouldn't have anything to do with getting dressed up. Bah Humbug!

Here's me in my Baby Blue sweats getting warmed up. I don't like the flash on the camera so I shut my eyes. But I am cute, aren't I?

Pooches Smooches to you all!

The Digger is Back!

Here we are, me and Bella back at the window. The Digger is back.

The Digger came back today and started digging up more of our yard and part of the street in front of our yard. Poppa took pitchurs of it so we could show you what it looks like. We think they're planting new pipes in the yard. We just don't know why. Sometimes hoomans do things we just can't understand.


As you can see, the Digger is really big. It is chewing up our yard.

Can you see the baby tree in our yard? Momma is very worried they are going to hurt her baby tree. The tree is a very special one to Momma. She moved from the farm where she lived for 22 years and brought that baby tree with her and planted it here. She doesn't want anything to happen to it.



But, the digger machine just goes on about its business. It didn't care that there is a foot of snow and ice. It just chewed through all that and through the concrete street, too!


Of course, we had to bark a sufficient amount. But once we knew we had taught them where the boundaries were, we let them go on about their business in peace... With a reminder every now and then.
Have a great day all!

Award

Our pawsome Beagley friends Jazz and Dixie gave us this award. Thank you so much!

We would like to paw it forward to our friends JB the Cat, and Butchy & Snickers.

We're gonna keep it short for tonight cuz Momma is feeling a little under-the weather. That's what she says. We don't know what that means cuz aren't we all under the weather since the weather comes from the sky and its above us???
Oh well, till later, Whoofs & Baroos,
Eddie, Peaches, Bella & Lady

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to all you dog-bloggers, hamsterriers, cats and hoomans.
May everyone have a full dish, fresh water, shelter from the weather, a soft pillow to curl up on and a hooman hand (or foot) to comfort you.
Always,
Whoofs & Baroos,
Eddie, Peaches Bella and Lady
