Evil Eva

Eva:
Well, this is what happened. Momma came home from the office on Thursday and left her shoes on the floor in the dining room.

She does this all the time but usually remembers to pick them up when she goes to bed. Maybe she forgot because I haven't chewed a shoe in months.

But she forgot and I was bored.......... so I chewed on Momma's favorite shoes. They weren't expensive 'cuz she spends all of their money on us but now she has to take the time to try to find another pair like them. Momma loved these shoes so I'm a bad, bad girl.

She didn't yell at me but I got the heavy sigh and "I'm very disappointed in you" look.

Tasha:
I don't want anydog to have the wrong impression. I am proud to have a mixed heritage. Momms is thinking about the DNA test just for fun. Don't tell Eva this but Momma and Dad love me the most. Grandma even has a picture of me on the wall because she realized there won't be any biped grandkids coming from this house.

Good Old fashioned Dog Next Door

Eva may be some fancy shmancy breed but I am a good old fashioned random "ships passing in the night" mix of collie, husky and golden retriever. At least that's Momma and Dad think I am. Momma's thinking about submitting my DNA for breed testing but is waiting until this fall when they will have more breeds available.

Now to my darling Pippa - You must be patient. Even though it was her fault, Momma is still upset about what Evil Eva did. Momma doesn't know how to get the picture from the little box to the bigger box. Check back in the morning, it will probably be posted later tonight.

Duh!

1. One of Momma's friends thought it was a human in the picture by the link to our profile. Like a human has beautiful ears like that?

2. I am so tired of the "Is our dog a Collie mix?" or "GSD mix?' or even "What kind of mix is she?"
I am a Belgian Tervuren and proud of it. I don't care if 99.99% of the population doesn't know my breed exists.

Blogathon

I was a bad, bad girl.....but we'll post about that later.

Momma's leaving the puter up and running all day for us so that we can keep up with our pup pals who are blogging for the blogathon. So we may make several posts today too.

Don't forget to stop by and see them and pledge some of your people's money for their worthy causes.

Few Words Friday: Bob is Back!

I want a ride in the convertible with the top down, NOW!

Hi Pups & Girl Girl, Tasha here. YES! Finally mom's car is back from the car hospital. If you remember, mom had an accident with her Mustang convertible, who she named Bob. You can read all about it here if you missed that post. So I am DEMANDING that we go for a ride in the back with the top down. We have our Doggles and our special doggy safety belts, so we are ready and eager to be going!

I am feeling much better after my nasty pooping episodes. I was SO embarrassed about pooping in the house. I haven't done that since I was a very young pup about 60 dog years ago. My humans were very understanding and didn't scold me at all. They know that if I do something like make a mess in the house that something is definitely not right. Thank you to everypup that gave me get-well-soon wishes! That means a lot to me.

I guess this Few Words Friday turned into A-Lot-More-Than-a-Few-Words-Friday! I better go and wake up the humans and start pestering them about taking Eva and I for a ride in the Mustang! Belly Rubs, Tasha.

Our Pack's Favorite Books

Hi Pups and Girl Girl, Eva here again today. We were tagged by Sitka and Tia to tell you about our 5 favorite books. Here I am one night. I couldn't sleep.

1. Insomnia by Steven King. This book kept me entertained for only one night. I took it off dad's night stand cuz he wasn't doing anything with it. At least I was gentle on this one.

Notice the delicate tooth marks. The humans didn't even have to throw this one away.

2. Dad gets one here. He likes practically everything by Steven King. Here's his collection with a few other of his favorites.. Some read by Tasha or I and some not. Notice the two without spines! I wonder how that ever could have happened? He said he really enjoyed the Gunslinger series.

3. Any book about my breed, the Belgian Sheep Dog! The book on the left has a picture of a the Groenendael variety and the pup on the right is my variety, the Tervuren. You can click here if you want to see the other two varieties. We used to have another book on Belgians, but I thought it was very tasty!!

4. Tasha's choice is anything by John Sanford. When dad is reading one of the his books in the "Prey" series, he reads late at night. Tasha lays on the bed with him and she gets lots of petting! Dad says these books are about a detective in the Minneapolis police department and references many places around the Twin Cities, which he says makes it cool since he knows the area pretty well. Whatever, as long as I have my back yard, dog park and walking routes, who cares about the rest of the world?

5. Mom's Favorite Book. THE CHECK BOOK!! We like this book a lot, too! It gets us kibble, treats, toys, and pays for nasty trip to the VET (OK, one strike against the check book),, here's a video of the three different kinds of treats that mom bought with the CHECK BOOK!

Did you notice that I got both of the treats from the offering on the left? Pretty sneaky, don't you think? Belly Rubs, Eva.

Delicate Issue

Sorry we haven't been around much lately. Momma has had to travel for work again (she keeps traveling to a place that has a Three Dog Bakery but forgets to bring us home treats) and Dad has been working hard. But more importantly, Tasha has been under the weather.

How can I say this delicately................she has been having a poo issue. She is so embarrassed and had to let the vet steal some of her blood. Thank Dog, everything came back normal but she has to take some pills and be on a bland diet for a while.

Even on a bland diet, Momma searches out the best for us- no wheat, no corn, no soy etc. I still get Nature's Variety but Tasha is on Duck and Potato. I got to try it and it's pretty tasty. Momma gets our kibble at a local place where they carry lots of good quality foods. As soon as Tasha can test them, we'll post about some new treats she picked up today.

We're in the middle of a new heat wave, so we'll post an old picture that will cool everyone off.



Belly Rubs,
Eva

p.s. We have not forgotten that we were tagged for our 5 favorite books. We'll try to respond later this week, I need to taste a few more for that.
