We're proud to announce....

We have some big news today... and we are so ready!! We've just taken a shower and our humans have even helped us put on some cute little clips on our hair!!













(Well, actually we also had to take a shower because we jumped into a pool of mud when we went to the park fur a walkie.. hee hee!! But the shower was just in time fur this special occassion!)

First, we'll start with something else though.. which is also kinda important.. we guess...

Today is Oscar night!! And you will see us strutting our stuff down the red carpet!!



You can vote fur all the other great furries that will be there at The Red Carpet Buzz. There are some really pawsome furries there!! We must get their pawtographs!!

And now, fur the news we've been waiting to tell you....

WE GOT AN NOMSS (not-of-my-species-special) FURRIEND!!

Ruis (a lilac colored Cornish Rex with an extremely soft mole fur) , the really sweet kittie at Kattenpraat Catwalk asked us if we would like to be NOMSS furriends on Wednesday, February 20th, and of course, we accepted!! He said:



"You are both such caring woofies and I would love if you want to be my special friends! Maybe you also want to come to the Netherlands one time, I can show you around."

Oh Ruis, you are so kind!! We think you are really caring too, and it was so nice of you to ask us to be your NOMSS furriend, we are honored!! And we can't wait until the trip to the Netherlands!! We hope your typist recovers from her surgery soon!! We'll keep our paws crossed fur her!!

We can't express how happy we are!! We can sense some fun times coming up!!

You can read more about this pawsome NOMSS challenge at the I Dare You All post at the Cat Realm. This challenge is aimed to "make the blogosphere an even better and bigger community and show everybody how we cross borders and have no patience for prejudices, racism and intolerance towards others!"

Highlights!

Hey everyfurry!

It's me, Maya!

So yesterday, I decided that my fur color needed a boost of color. So I went to the fur salon. After looking at all the posters of doggies on the walls and magazines too, I knew just what i wanted.



So I sat down in a chair and waited patiently until the end, when I would see how my new furstyle would look like.
Then, after an hour or so, I opened my eyes and looked in the mirror to see a totally new me!! I now had yellow highlights on my beard. Hip, trendy, cool, right? Now I could hang with all the cool dawgs in town!!



Agghh!! I can't take it anymore... Ok, the truth is.... that was not what happened...



My humans have been painting the house this week, and when they were out of sight, I approached a tray of the liquid they used on the walls, according the humans, it's called something like "pant". So I took a sniff at it, but my beard was in the way... and well, the rest just falls into place...



It's kind of funny though... Hee hee... my humans were like "?!?" BOL...

Catch-up Post : Walkie and Award

Ok, here's another catch-up post!! :P

On the day we returned from Koobuss' pawsome pawty, we rested the whole morning!!! We took really deep naps. And in the afternoon, our humans said the magic words: "Let's Go!". And as soon as we heard those two words, we ran to the front door and stood still as they put our leashes on.

When we were out the front door, instead of turning left fur our usual walkie, our humans told us to get in the car. Yay!! We automatically knew what this meant!!! DOG PARK!!!!

We were so excited, and the whole way we stuck our heads out the windows to feel the wind blowing on our faces. You gotta love that feeling!!









Then, when we arrived there and got off the car, we were tugging our humans the whole way to the dog park fence, and we mean TUGGING... hee hee!!
There were some doggies in the little doggy section, so we went in there first. (Usually we go to the big doggy side because there are no little doggies in the little doggy side since the few that are there are in the big doggy side).



We had fun sniffing new pups and running around!! And as always, we chased each other and played rough with each other, and our humans had to reassure everyhuman that we weren't fighting, that this was our idea of fun.

Then, Kena went to have a drink at the water bucket, but she preferred to cool down COMPLETELY. (Our humans seem to think she acts more like a labrador when she's around water). She also dug in the water and started circling inside it.



Since Kena had made the water all dirty (because she was running in dirt), one of our humans moved the little bucket of water aside and started filling up the big one so that the other dogs could drink in it while Kena played in the other one (she didn't let anyone drink from the one she was playing in). But then Kena heard the sound of running water and when she saw it, she ran over there and drank straight from the fountain.



She wouldn't let other doggies near the big bucket now. (She would stare them down)



But as soon as Kena got away from the water, Maya made a move and took advantage of the fact that Kena wasn't puppy-guarding anymore so that she could get a drink of water.



After we had some fun running around in the little doggy section, we moved on to the big doggy section, where we really belong!

And then, a few minutes later, we were pooped!! So we headed back home.



Our humans were disgusted by Kena, she was covered in dry mud, and they had not brought towels to put on the car seats, so when we arrived home, the car seats were a completely different color.. hee hee!

Also, we hadn't posted about the award we got from our good pal Thor!

On February 17th, he gave us the "You are Toadally Awesome!" award!! We were so happy!! Thank you so much Thor!! We're honored to receive this award!!





This award is a pawsome award, and we think everysingle one of our pals are awesome!! It would be really hard to pick just some.. so we're gonna break the rules this time and pass it on to everyone!! We truly love you all!!

Koobuss' Pawty

We are really behind on our blogging... and so we'll try our bestest to catch up ASAP.

So, as many of you know, Koobuss had a Valentine Ski Pawty at Mount Hairy Lodge, which tons of doggies attended. At first, we thought we wouldn't be able to go because our humans were way too busy to help us pack and stuff. But then, sweet Asta offered to take us along with her and her sis Myrna and we were so happy that we could make it! Thank you so much Asta, you're pawsome!!

We tagged along with Asta until we arrived at the pawty, then we kind of got lost because it was the first time we went to a pawty and we didn't know what to do. And then, later on, when we realized no one was outside (it was FREEZING!), we went back to the lodge and realized that we had to register. So we did, and from there on, the fun began. At first, when everyone was outside in the cold weather having tons of fun, we didn't dare step out into the snow. We were not used to these temperatures at all... so we stayed inside fur the whole first day of the pawty, drinking WARM hot chocolates (made especially fur doggies, so it wasn't real chocolate).



But then on day two, it turned out that some doggies were getting together at the whirlpool to relax. And of course, since it didn't involve any snow or it wasn't something out in the cold, we joined them in the warm water.

On day three- the last day before we left fur home- we decided that we should give the cold weather a try since we were probably not gonna see snow any time soon. And so we did, we took a deep breath and stepped outside to join all the doggies in sledding.

It tuned out to be pretty fun!! We couldn't believe we had been missing out on THIS!!

After a day full of excitement, we all settled down and and called Gus to the lounge, where he arrived to find a SUPRISE!!! We sang "Happy Barkday" and then had a delicious cake.

Later that day, we decided to go hang out at the casino. We got a little lucky, but not as lucky as Asta Marie, who won enough to pay fur all of the expenses of the pawty!! Wow!! Either way, we had tons of fun!!



(photo by Koobuss)

Then, we heard that a live musician was playing, and that he was singing some of our favorite doggy songs, so we left the casino and joined everyone who was already there and danced along to the great tunes!



(photo by Koobuss)

What can we say, we had the time of our lives!! We will try to go to as many pawties as possible, because now we know why everyone is always excited when there is a pawty. We've missed on a lot!!

Thank you fur the great time Koobuss!! The pawty was pawfect!!

And Asta, we truly can't thank you enough!! We wouldn't have had this pawsome time if it weren't fur you!! We love you!!

PS. We just found out that Baby is back home!! Woof woof!! We were so glad to hear this! Everyone's prayers have worked!!

About Bruno

Hey there everybody!
We know one of our pals asked us if Bruno was doing a fundraiser to help pay fur his surgery (his very kind vet did the surgery before she was given the money... how nice of her) and so we asked Bruno. He told us he is still doing the same fundraiser at ChipIn! And we posted it before, but here it is again so that in case you want to help out more you don't have to look fur it on our page.





Please keep praying fur him!!

SCV Kennel Show

Hey there (again!)
We just received sniffs from our humans back at home (We are still at Koobuss' Pawty saying our goodbyes before we leave tomorrow) that today they went to check out a dog show!! Ummm... hello? What about us? Your DOGS?!? But after they said that no registered dogs were allowed, we felt much better. The dog show had started at 7 in the morning and would last until about 6 pm, but our humans arrived at noon and only stayed there fur a couple of hours. This was the first time our humans had been to a dog show; they found out about it on the internet, and our human daddy read that there was going to be a Cairn Terrier arena, and so they went to see specifically that.



















Our humans told us it was amazing how all the Cairns had perfect form and beautiful fur!! But they said that even though we were not up to "standard", whatever that means, that they love us SO much! Aww... thanks family!
There were not only Cairn Terriers, there were other arenas with other doggies as well, but our humans were very eager to see our breed, so they sat at the Cairn arena the whole time. The Cairn Terrier show was hosted by the Cairn Terrier Club of Northern California and they also had raffle tables and information tables next to the arena. Our humans said that there were tons of Cairn decorations, t-shirts, painting, signs, etc. But they didn't participate in the raffle. They said that they had a wonderful time!! Maybe the next time there's a dog show, dogs (that are not part of the shows) will be allowed and maybe we can go!
