Pawty Time!!

Hey Roo!
Did woo all hear the news? Today is Huffle's Birthday!!! We will be heading over to her place to enjoy some ham real soon.  We hope to see all our friends there! We need to rest up a little before we go, though. It's been a rough few days.

Happy Birthday Huffle!!
See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla and Maebe

It's Pawlicious!

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

The humans are perplexed by my behavior sometimes.  They gives me stuffy toys, nylabones, paper to shred, and more, but sometimes I prefer to chew the thing closest to me.

Mmmmmm.... I loves me some feety feet!

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

Merry Christmas!!! ....and.... 100th Post!!!

Hey Roo!
We wish woo a Merry Christmas,
We wish woo a Merry Christmas,
We wish woo a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!!!


We have missed all our blogging friends! We are at our 100th post, and we had a really bad case of writer's block. We have no idea how to celebrate. I guess this will be just one big update post to let woo all know what we've been up to.


First of all, it is of course Christmas and we got some good swag. Here we are enjoying our favorites.
 
On Christmas Eve, huMom tried to dress us up.  Why doesn't she understand how much we hate dressing up? Pictures with the bandannas...

And then the dang reindeer antlers... (Maebe thought it was a toy and kept trying to bite them off of me)

As woo can see, we are not thrilled with the whole "dress woo up for pictures" thing.


This fall, our huMom was training for a 1/2 marathon, and we helped her train on her shorter runs. She is pretty slow, really it was just a medium-paced trot for us. Maebe helped her train more, since I am more of a daytime running pup and there's not enough daylight in the wintertime. She ran the race on December 6th and survived. While she could not take any actual pics of us running together, here's a pic of us all tuckered out after a 3-mile run.

 

And here we are while she is trying to get ready to go for a long run, exchanging kissy-woos.

This is from mid-November, when the big man made Maebe into a Maebe sandwich.

WOO may remember that earlier this year we got tested to be doggie blood donors. Unfortunately Maebe didn't qualify (and as woo may remember, I made sure I didn't qualify).  

Finally, it was our birthday in September. Here we are with our personalized Happy Heart cookies! Thank woo nice Happy Heart human lady!

We hope woo get lots of walkies, hugs, love, and treats this year!!

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

I Have Been Furminated

Grandmaw is here!!!

Hey Roo!

We are so excited!!! Our Grandmaw has come to visit us for a few days. We gave her our special greeting reserved for only the closest of friends and family. We jumped all over her, kissed her feet, kissed her face, gave her a good sniff, and tried to eat the goodies in her bag.
Then they got the bed set up. Here is Maebe making sure it is comfy.

We have her trained well. She is to give us lots of pets all the time.

Notice my paw placement.  How can she refuse?

PS: we know we are behind on blogging and we hope to catch up soon...

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

5 Five 5 FIVE 5 Five 5 FIVE 5 Five!!!!!

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

Today is our birthday! We are five years old today. The humans had to work today, but we got some extra special stuff tonight! First huMom tried to vacuum (whatever for?) but the Dyson decided to honor our birthday by not working! Yay Dyson! Next, our huMom gave us a greenie for our teethies, they we got to go to the dog park. While I was there, I decided to hump both of the huskies that were there. The owner of the girl I humped was an unspayed female and her owner got mad at me, but when huMom explained that I am a girl she started to laugh. Silly humans don't understand my domineering moves! After that, we got some nice new nylabones. Here we are chewing them:




We didn't get a cake this year, but we did get a whole bunch of Happy Hearts treats today. We also got a cool new toy that we will show woo a pic of tomorrow.

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

The Screening Process

Hey Roo!

We had quite a busy morning today. huMom said she wanted us to work off some excess energy first, so we went to the DOG PARK!!

Yes, we have picked up a few tips from SZK!

huMom tried to take pics of us together but wasn't too happy our pawsitioning... she said this pic was the best one. Haroooo!! There weren't very many doggies there, but we did meet a nice girl named Roxy.

Let's hang out in the shade for awhile. ***pant pant pant***

After we got back in the HUV, huMom took a left instead of a right... where are we going? When we got out of the HUV, she took us somewhere we have never been before.

Hmmmm... this is kind of like the v*e*t, but it's NOT the v*e*t...

They took Maebe back first (huMom says she is the braver one, hmmmmph), then she explained to me why we were here. She says we are here for blood donor screening. This place is called the Las Vegas Veterinary Referral Center, and they have an animal blood bank. So if doggies or kitties get hurt, the blood they get from here can save their life. If we pass the screening, we may be able to give the gift of life.

That wasn't so bad!

We don't have any pics of what they did to us (let's just say it involved needles, yuck!) but we did get sent home with a big bag of treats each. The doctor had to get my sample from my leg, I just wasn't into pokey things in my neck. I snarled at her a little. She said if I did become a donor I would probably have to be sedated, but due to my temperament I may not be a suitable donor. I want to help other doggies and all, but I REALLY don't like pokey things. If we pass the basic screening and have the universal blood type, then Maebe will go back again (I will if I HAVE to).

As if that wasn't enough excitement for one day, we went to another place after we were done with the screening. Yes, the v*e*t... we got our butts squeezed and our nails clipped.

I want to go home.

huMom was happy to hear that we were pretty empty back there. So we won't have to go again for a really long time, right???

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

A Little Privacy Here?!?!?!

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

Kayla and I have a little ritual some times, and we engaged in it the other day after dinner. Our huMom had to intrude with her camera. Sheesh...


So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

Bunny!

Hey Roo!


We found this blog post in our draft folder... Oops!

What we wanted to show woo was the bunnies that hang out in our neighborhood.  We usually can't get close enough to get a good picture of these guys, but maybe if woo click on it to blow this first pic up woo can see him.

We went on the grass to find him, but he hopped away.

Maebe looked across the street, but he was gone.
Oh well, off we go again... maybe we will see another one later!


See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

For Charlie

Hey Roo, we have some sad news today. Charlie has crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge. He was Dog #1 on DWB and an inspiration to all of us doggie bloggers.

Sending lots of husky kisses to his mum and dad, and to Opy too. Woo will be missed, Charlie.

Sad woos, Kayla and Maebe

Prescription from Dr. Steve Helps Humans!

Hey Roo!

I am in such a good mood today. My dumb sister Maebe tried to embarrass me by submitting a fake "problem" to Dr. Steve. Fortunately, he was smart enough to see right through it and wrote the prescription for the true offending parties, the humans.

You see, I am the princess of the house and I do as I please, when I please. I answer to no one. Maebe doesn't like that because she thinks she is alpha dog, but I just ignore her. Also, I don't like baths so when the humans try to capture me for bathing, I piddle to punish them. It's as simple as that. So here is what Dr. Steve prescribed for my humans:

Dr. Steve, woo are a genius. Thank woo for helping my humans!!

See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

Photo Game

Hey Roo! Our friend Huffle played a photo game and I decided I wanted to play too.

Hey, this is just an unedited pic of one I used a few days ago! OH well....

Raft Training

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

The humans thought it would be a good day for some raft training. They would like to take us camping at Bowman Lake at Glacier National Park next year, and the humans think one of the best parts of the trip is rafting on the lake. Here are a couple pics of our predecessors, Rex and Sheena, on the raft:

And here is Sheena on the raft on Bowman Lake. It doesn't look too exciting to us. In fact, she is looking bored to DEATH.

Kayla's training came first. She really didn't like being in the raft. She was quite tense and was looking for a way out.

Get me out of here!!

HuMom was a little late starting this video, but woo know how much Kayla and I dislike swimming in the pool. Check this out:


Kayla hates the raft even more than she hates swimming. She is so strange.

My training came next. I wasn't quite sure what to do with my back feet. So I gave the Big Man a kiss, then huMom came along and pushed me in.

This isn't so bad!

Eventually, I decided I had enough of the raft.


How did woo like that? I found a way out and only got my feety-feets wet! Pretty smart of me, wouldn't woo say?

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

My Prescription Has Arrived!

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

Recently, Dr. Steve gave me a prescription to help me overcome my chewiness problem. This is the prescription he gave me:

I showed this to my huMom so she could fill it right away. She started by buying a couple of bananas. But it was apparently too much trouble for her to follow Kat's easy banana bone recipe so the bananas turned to mush. HuMom then said that we might get a turkey drumstick at Thanksgiving, and there are no squirrels around. I was furry upset at her inability to get my prescription filled in a timely manner.

At last, she ordered us some Happy Hearts cookies and their huMom came to the rescue! She sent us lots of squirrels!! My prescription got filled at last. Here I am waiting patiently for my first squirrel: huMom thought it would be nice if Kayla got one too. I didn't think that it was appropriate or safe for my prescription to be shared, but Kayla got mad when I tried to take my squirrel back.

Finally, I got to enjoy my squirrel. I licked it a few times first, then I gobbled it down. What a delicious prescription!

I think Happy Hearts are awesome. We got some of the new watermelon flavor to try. We were reminded of Dave at AO4, since he loves watermelons so much. We also got our very own personalized cookies, which are now on our sidebar. YUMMI YUMMI YUMMI!!! And thank woo Dr. Steve for caring enough to diagnose me and provide an appropriate prescription.

So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe

Dubs the New Huskies Mascot!

Hey Roo!

As some of woo know, our huMom went to the University of Washington for some of her training. Did woo know their mascot is the husky? Cool huh! Except.... usually their "Husky" is actually a Malamute. Now I don't have anything against Mal's... it just seems a little like false advertising is all.

The last mascot retired awhile ago and now they have a new one. Do woo think they got a Husky this time?

NO!

That's OK though. Why? Because the new mascot is a blogging doggie, and he's CUUUUUUTE!!!
Here is his blog: http://huskymascot.blogspot.com/

Check out Dubs blog. There are lots of pics from when he was a little puppy and woo get to see him grow. I was hoping to leave him love notes, but unfortunately we can't leave comments....
See ya later! Woooo woo rar rar rar... Kayla

Our Crazy Coupl'r

Hey Hey, it's Maebe Baebe!

The OP Pack asked if our huMom remembers where she bought our coupler. Of course she doesn't, so I went and checked myself and at least I found the name of the brand on the tag on the coupler:

http://www.crazycouplr.com/

huMom is not very happy with the coupler again. Kayla managed to yank her way free last night on our walk. Fortunately huMom grabbed Kayla before she realized she was free... huMom is also mad she can't find any instructions anywhere on the internet about how to use the coupler properly. Now she's convinced herself that the nylon part wasn't meant to go over our heads, but if it doesn't it's way too long.

Oh, and AO4, coupler or no coupler, I mark on Kayla's head every now and then. She needs to be reminded who's boss, and if she's not bright enough to get her head out of the way when I do my business... am I doing anything wrong?


So that's my story, woo a'tcha later! Maebe
