Reminder - Pawtners N' Pals Birthday Event

Hiya all,


I've had some GREAT photos sent to me for my Birthday Event "Pawtners N' Pals"! 


I've been impressed by the creativity you have all shown - my dear Blogville furiends!


But, I have to be fair and say...... IMMEDIATE family members cannot enter! 

(That's YOU Scarlet and Zoe)(*rolling eyes skyward*)

They first tried to enter this photo - because they said there is a big "likeness" between them. (We in fact, call Zoe Scarlet's MINI ME)

Then they decided to get cute........and so a photo shoot was done..

Zoe went first...... showin' how great she is......

But that didn't LAST LONG!!

Then Scarlet wanted to pictured with the little furry PAL......

And then she gave her auntie (my mum) a super cute look to the flashy box..........awwwww!

They'll do ANYTHINGY to try and enter!!

But sorry cousins, you cannot enter. Lucky mum gave you consolation prizes of hugs, kisses, milk bones, dried fish and liver treats!!

NOW for EVERYONE ELSE...... get creative and get entering your pictures. You have until the 29th April - but don't leave it to the last minute...you know how PEEPS love to Pro-kras-tin-ate!!

Remember to tell me which of the NINE PRESENTS you want to be entered into the draw for. You can nominate more than one and increase your chances of winning....!!

Go to the post before this one to choose your present/s and get the email address to send your picture and present choice to.

Happy Easter ( it WAS!)

We went to Grandpaws' place for Easter Sunday. We met my Auntie and Uncie, along with Scarlet and Zoe there.

Me, Scarlet and Zoe - admiring the Easter Table Setting.

If you look close - you can see OUR doggie "easter egg cookies" mum made special for us given we cannot eat chocolate ones. They are this side of centre in little cello bags with gold ribbons. They are "chicken satay with seeds" flavour.

Mum and auntie prepared lunch - they had creamy potato bake, roast pumpkin, roast pork and gravy, duck confit with sour cherry sauce and buttered parsley carrots. It's smelled so yummers!!!

My eyes were firmly on that duck and pork!!!

After peep lunch, and our sampling, we each got a doggie "easter egg" - mum made them all pretty with stickers and stuff.

ZOE:    OOOoooooo peel the eggies auntie!!!!!!!! Quick!

So mum peeled them - one by one (far too slowly for our liking) - and we each got a whole easter egg to nom.

I woofed mine down.

Zoe Zoes was next.

And then Scarlet got hers - see how dainty she takes her pieces. Not like me - mum has to be careful she doesn't lose a finger with my technique!!

All of a sudden - uncie, mum and I went outside - and I suddenly got nervous because there was grooming equipments set up.

So I got my hairs trimmed    :-( 

Mum says I really needed it because I couldn't see through my eyebrows anymore. What would she know!!

I got to play at "half time" with my cousins to blow off some pent up "steam" from standin' on the groomin' table.

See my face not done yet - and my peeps think the "tassle" on the end of my tail is "CUTE" - I pointed to the breed grooming expectation of a mini schnauzer and there is nothing like this goin' on!! My mate Magic's mum will tell ya! It's sooo hard to get good help.

ZOE: Hurry up with your hair cut Rubie - I am waiting for sweets to be served!!! 

The peeps had their sweets (white chocolate and passionfruit mousse) served inside chocolate eggs!!! You can get the full recipe from mum's personal blog (link in my sidebar) - it will go up shortly.

Us doggies had some chicken satay egg cookies - sorry mum was too occupied doin' dishes and stuff to get the pics. Dad dad gave them to us.

When I got home - I just wanted to snooze on my couch with my new Chicken easter Stuffie. 

I just want to say - even with the hair-cut - that was a great day, and I hope your Easter was as Happy as MINE was!!!!! (minus the grooming bit of course!)

Get Ready - Easter is almost HERE!

Hiya all,

I participated in this Easter themed photo shoot because I did not see any novelty bunny ears amongst the props mum collected. I thought I was safe.

Oh how WRONG I was. (*sigh*)

This photo shoot is goin' to cost you a bucket load of Liver Treats mum ....... Just sayin'!

Yes - I can keep my "ears" on while lying down...

Ooooooo...... you say I can't have any of the chocolate stuffs, but the chicken stuffie is ALL MINE !!!! Woo Hooo !!! 

Ah Ha!!! The catch is I can't have it till SUNDAY??!! Story of my day ma!!! (*Humph*)

Hey DAD DAD !!!!!! Save ME!!! Surely ma had a BAZILLION photos of me already!!! It's time for my walk isn't it!!!!!!!!!

NOW THIS is what I think of Novelty Bunny Ears......and ma.... I'm a SCHNAUZER, that's a dog, NOT a Bunny Rabbit!!!!

We are going to Grandpaws' for Easter on Sunday - and there are going to be treats on offer for Scarlet , Zoe and me. I can't wait. I'll post the pictures.

Have a GREAT EASTER everyone !!!!!!!!

PeeS: I want to send a special HAPPY EASTER to my beautiful peep relatives in Sweden - they'll be readin' this post!!!! xxxx ooooo xxxx

Scarlet and Zoe Pupdate

My cousins, Scarlet and Zoe come over for a play-day every week. 

Here we are taking a time-out from playing.

Scarlet and I playing some bitey face.

Hey ma...... I think there is something wrong with little Zoe!

ZOE: Ummmm - yea I have a little "medical issue" at the moment.

ZOE: I have an "off / on" button on my tummy!

RUBIE: OOooooo .... I can't look!!

ZOE: It's not that bad Rubie, I've been to the V-E-T and they stabbed it with a needle!! That was interesting :-(

SCARLET: I think it's a Goiter that's slipped down from her thyroid area Auntie!!

ZOE: Don't be daft Scarlet, it's a stupid cyst, which will go away in it's own good time. Nothing to carry on about!

RUBIE: Yikes!!!! Mum is Zoe gonna be alright????

RUBIE'S MUM: Of course Rubie, Zoe will be fine - that little sore will go away eventually, it's just got some fluid in it..... the Vet analysed it and there is nothing to worry about.

RUBIE: I couldn't bare to not have my sleeping buddy - I even let Zoe share my blue blankie!

SCARLET: I still think it's a Goiter......... now I gotta........ ZZZZZZzzzzzzzz!
