Flashback

I was talking with my mom about how funny sammy looked when I first got him. I went back and looked at the pictures...o my word. He was so sick and so scuffy!! He looked HILARIOUS!!! I couldn't do it justice to describe it so here.....


He's so much better now. I heart that little sammy man

long overdue


HELLO!!! Remember me...Yes mom, I'm writing for you... :)

And yes...that is Sammy after he just woke up in the morning...he's not really a morning dog.

Let's see...we've had a whole lot of excitment. Maxy long dog decided that climbing out the bedroom window onto the roof was a good idea. He got really panicky and finally jumped back in the window...after he thought about jumping off. But, he decided that it was kind of fun and still checks the window everyday to see if he can get out again (Thanks mom for the screens :D) Rosie and the puppies played outside today. There was only one issue. Rosie sniffed Maxy's little butt today and then started chasing him around doing a little 'wiggle'. O my word...it was funny. Apparently she was a little confused on boy and girl roles in her old age (she's 70 in people years). So much for 'you can't teach an old dog new tricks'. We laughed so hard!!!
Also, my puppies are meshing into one dog and picking up each other's habits...look at Sammy after he discovered Max's favorite spot to sleep.

Max the Wolverine

Scott and I were talking about Max's unusual habit of flipping on his back to chew on things. Its really funny to watch...he lays down, picks up his Nyla-bone, and slowly tips over. He looks like he has hands when he holds it between his paws. The other day, he was chewing on the Nyla-bone, upside-down of course, and got distracted. He was holding the little bone above his head and was looking around. He looked left, then right, then behind him, then left again...all while holding the bone above his head between his paws...I was like 'how are you holding that'. Then he went back to chewing on it. Well, according to Scott, wolverines eat porcupines this way. Apparently, wolverines either grab porcupines by the nose and flip them over or they grab the porcupine and and lay on their backs to eat it. That way, they can eat the little soft belly without eating the prickly part. Hmmmm...what do you think...Max is pretending that all his toys are porcupines?
PS - after looking at pictures of porcupines...I want one! Except I'd be afraid Max would try to eat it!
