Our 'dopshun storiez, not x-actly - how we came home with mom

(after Shasta tellz her story then we will give our Christmas shoppin'list of what we wanna give our mom)

Part 1 - Shiloh Beaglebratz comes home

It wuz around the early part of May of 2003 – I wuz out in the yard with my doggy mom’n my sisterz’n my brutherzplus my dad’n one of my unclez wuz around sumwhere tu. The day wuz sunny’n warm - nuthin wuz any different – we wuz all scramblin’around,either wantin’ tu eat that stuff in the pan or followin’ doggy mom. Then we saw this big thing with thoze 4 round thingyz – doggy mom told us it wuz called a car, it moved up not far frum us. Tu female hoo-minz came out’n walked over tu us then started talkin’tu my hoo-min mom then started playin’with all of us. A bit later, I herd one of the female hoo-minz talkin’tu my hoo-min dad – “I don’t no how tu chooze, which 1 du u think iz the best?” Huh – chooze what? Best what? And why wuz she askin’my hoo-min dad? Well, in case no one else haz figurd it out yet – this nu female hoo-min wood soon b my nu hoo-min mom – yep, on May 16, 2003, I moved tu my nu home with my nu hoo-min mom’n now I had a hoo-min aunt sis tu’n a hoo-min cuzin. When I got tu my nu home, my nu hoo-min mom took me outside – then while I wuz outside with my nu aunt sis, nu human mom went in the house – I wuz skeerd she mite leave me then I’d b all alone in this nu place. But no – there she wuz agin’n walkin’b-side her on the ground wuz anuther little doggy, ‘bout my size tu – well akchually he wuz a little taller than me(however that wood soon change).  We walked up tu each other‘n we introduced r-selves – Hi, I guess I’m the nu kid here – kin we b friendz? He sed, Hi – my name iz Oreo’n I bin here fer a long time so that makez me the boss’n yes – we kin b friends tu ….. but I AM the boss. Even with r size difference, we soon b-came best buds. An'I also found out I had a doggy cuzin - her name wuz KenzieR'member I told u about how the size difference b-tween me'n Oreo wood change - well it did, within a few monthz

There were other changez tu - mom'n me went tu skool - alot then there were testz'n then we started duin'sumthin that I really love - mom takez me tu vizit difrent places. That'z part of the reezon that Shasta came tu live with us. One day, mom told me that my real doggy sis, 

Tess, had babiezThen later, when we were sittin' tugether, she sed, "Shiloh - I love u'n u haf turned into a really good dog'n u r part of the reezon I want tu bring 1 of thoze babiez here." At furst I thought - well I wuz born a dog so what else wood I b-come? Anyway, that iz how Shasta joined r family butt I will let her tell u'all about it.

Part 2 - Shasta Beaglebratz comez home

 

 Hi - this iz Shasta speakin'n that iz a pikchur mom took of me when she ferst came tu c me. Like Shiloh, I wuz outside in the yard with my doggy mom an' brutherz'n sisterz when sum nu hoo-minz came by tu vizit.  The 2 new hoo-minz liked me alot'n 1 of them took many pikchurez of me'n played with me more than the otherz - I guess u cood say I felt speshal.  

But then they left'n I wuz all alone with my doggy mom'n brutherz'n sisterz. The dayz went by'n sumtimes it wuz cold'n then got warm butt we all were in the house with r hoo-min mom so life wuz good. Butt then, thoze nu hoo-minz came bak only we wuz all in the house this time. An'then the nu hoo-min that took all the pikchurz, she held me up'n put sumthin' around my nek.  I didn't like that thin' around my nek but I liked bein' held up'n the nu hoo-min held me close tu her'n I wuz there all by myself - didn't hafta share - yep, I wuz speshal fer shur. Butt then we left my old house'n my old hoo-min mom - the nu hoo-min wuz still carryin'me - I didn't no what wuz happenin'.  Yep, I wuz kinda skeerd - but I wuz excited tu - I must b purty speshal tu go on an advenchur with these nu hoo-minz. Purty soon, I found out I haf 2 doggy cuzins-they r Kailie'n Bailie'n they wuz a lotta fun-

 I found out that their hoo-min mom iz also my aunt sis'n I haf a hoo-min cuzin tu. FINALLY we got tu where my nu hoo-min mom livez - yep, I found out this nu hoo-min that holds me'n playz with me the most - iz now my nu hoo-min mom; Bailie told me.  Ok, here iz me'n Shiloh - shortly after we met fer the furst timeHe kinda reminded me of my doggy mom - only bigger butt he haf the same colorz. Don't worry, we wuz just playin' in that pikchure. He'z the best - he letz me stalk him then attak - sumbody sed I must b part kat - I don't think so. Sumthin' told me my nu hoo-min mom wood b good tu me - she made me feel spechul - she had got me a Fluffy Pup'n it wuz there waitin'fer me that furst nite in my nu home cuz my nu mom thinks I am 1 of the bestMe'n Shiloh soon became great friendz'n we loved playin' tugether-an'even tho I grew up, we still play An' mom'n me bin tu skool like Shiloh'n mom - we took sum testz tu. This iza pikchure of me after the testAnyway, the reezon I am tellin' u all this iz b-cuz it means mom lovez spendin' time with me'n sharin’me with otherz. I love spendin' time with mom tu!. We du all kinda thingz tugether.

Oh, an'I found out sumthin'- I wuz spechully chozen b-cuz I iz related tu Shiloh - yep, I really iz - he ain't just my big bruther in mom's family butt he really iz my uncle – my doggy mom’z bruther, he told me. Gee, I wunder if that'z why we look alike

Well there is lotza stuffz we wood love tu give our mom fer Christmas - we love her so much an'she duz alot fer us.  If we had 87 gazillion green paperz, we wood git our mom the nu house she wantz - she sed the one she wantz wood b a little smaller than the one we haf now butt it wood b eazier fer all of us tu live in tu.


BUTT, mom sez b-4 she cood sell the house we haf now, it needz a few thin's fixed up - so we wood like tu du that fer our mom tu - fix whatever our house needz fixin'.

BUTT, there r sum stuff we can give our mom that won't cost us any green paperz which iz good since we don't haf any - we just hopez she lovez theze prezentz az much az we love givin'them.  FURST, me'n Shasta r gonna give tu our mom, all the snuggles an'cuddlez we haf tu give.  2ND, we r gonna give her all the kissez we haf.  3RD, since I-Shiloh-am the one who cauzes mom the most grief b-cuz of my great butt wrong, counter-surfin'ability, I pledge tu werk on NOT duin'this (butt mom no'ze how hard this wood b fer me - it iz a Beagle's rite).  4TH - since we now r soooooo very happy tu c mom when she gitz home after she haz a hard werkday - we pledge tu keep duin'this - may-b du sum happy-dancin'tu.


Ok - this may b a werk in progress - our gift list fer our mom.  If we think of more - u can b shur we will add it tu our list

Shiloh'n Shasta 

 

Shasta-1st Christmas 2006

Mom Beaglebratz here-

I was going thru some Christmas pics from Shasta's first Christmas - 2006 - she was about 10 weeks old.   I know I have talked about it before but to refresh memories or if someone is reading about it for the first time - the pic was taken over at my sister's where we went for Christmas Day.     The 2 Westies are my sister's - Bailie & Kailie.  Anyway, before we left our home, Shiloh'n Shasta got to open their gifts from Santa Paws and a couple from mom - they each also got a stocking to  go through.  Each stocking had several treats in them - treats that were just loose/not wrapped or packaged.  A treat fell out of Shasta's stocking and she went after it like any dog would.  Well, maybe Shiloh was thinking - what does a little pip-squeak pup know about treats (more likely it was  just instinct or desire to eat) but anyway Shiloh beat Shasta to the treat and in the process besides barking at her, Shiloh also ended up giving Shasta a little nip on  her ear.  At first, it looked like no lasting damage or anything needing a vet was done  however after we all had been  at my sister's for awhile, we noticed that Shasta was acting a little lethargic and upon closer inspection of her ear, there was a little puncture wound on the lower part of her ear which 

was oozing just a wee little bit, 

we ended up going to the 24hr. vet - Shasta spent her first Christmas with a stitch in her ear. 

(and probably wondering 

what kind of a family she was now a part of)            

I am not sure but I think this pic may have been taken BEFORE our trip to the vet.  I didn't realize the look on her face until AFTER the pic was uploaded.  Here is a close-up.  Here is a tag I had made from a pic I had taken after our trip to the vet-

(I think puppies have this innate ability to 

know when to turn on that 

"poor me" look)

PS - We are having Thanksgiving tonite since my nephew is leaving early Thursday morning to fly down to Phoenix - part of work with the women's volleyball team at our local university - the team is playing in a championship tourney.  I will be spending most of Thanksgiving Day watching the parades and decorating.

Friendly Friday #6

This iz one of our newer fur-rendz,

her name iz Buttons er.. Busy Buttons. 

Here iz what Busy Buttons haz tu say 'bout herself-

"I'm a 10-year-old Shih Tzu named Buttons. 

I love toys. And cookies. And getting into trouble. 

And toys. And more toys. 

And then some more squeaky toys."

BUTT, az we haf bin followin'Buttons,

we haf found out sumthin'else 'bout her-

she MITE b small or vertically challenged BUTT

she iz 1 very d-termined little pup.

Nope, u probably don't wanna tell this 

little lady that she can't du or haf sumthin'cuz she 

will likely just du it anyway.
In fact u mite say that Buttons just does not like
duin'stuff the uzual way. 

So why doncha just click on that link we provided-

she'z a real cutie-

Shiloh'n Shasta here fer a bit (really just Shiloh fer now)........

We asked our mom tu du this fer us (I'm doing their spelling too, bark for bark).  Mom got her carpetz cleaned this past Friday - we had tu endure confinement in the bedroom with NO bed.  Stuff still ain't all moved bak - she iz SHUR sloooooooooo.  She tried tu git the 'puter werkin'later butt the mousey thin'didn't wanna werk so gonna try agin tunite.  Now this confinement thin'- it ain't bad fer Shasta cuz she haz more room in the gated kichen BUTT mom iz NOT lettin'me haf the whole house tu roam in like she did.  At least our comfy chair iz still in the kichen.  Anywayz, we will b bak later sometime

In mom's defense - the carpet hasn't looked this good for at least 5-6 years and kinda want to keep it that way, for awhile at least.
