Hurricane watch

Even as far inland as we are, it is already raining like crazy & incredibly windy here in western PA. So tonight will be spend cuddled up on the couch under a blanket and staying nice and dry.


Hey everyone! We are now on Facebook! Please go like the page and tell everyone else about it! It will be used to update on new posts and to show more pictures of the girls.

Adventure in the Park


Took the girls for a walk around the park the other day. Since they were born last Fall, this is really their first time experiencing leaves on the ground and it is very entertaining to watch them romp through the leaves.


They loved it to say the least. And after about an hour and a half, we finally headed home.


Needless to say, I had very exhausted puppies who slept the rest of the night after that.


Sadly, now that the weather is definitely becoming colder, nice long walks like this may be on hold until Spring when it gets warm again.

The Dreaded Bath

Yup. It's that time. What all dogs hate most. Bath time.
These two actually do alright with it. They stand around & just look up at you with their enormous chocolate eyes and give you the pitiful "why are you doing this?" look. Other than that, they really just stand there and occasionally shake.


 It is amusing to watch them be very fluffy and run around the house like crazy after bath time.


 Scooby tried to re-stink herself...too bad I had just washed those blankets.

 Pitiful looks from Scooby



Zelda refused to look at me for most of the time while I was attempting to take pictures. She was too busy taking out her frustration on her unfinished bone from earlier in the day.

Burrowing Habits

It's that time of year where the weather gets very chilly here in western PA. The cold weather has definitely caused a bit of an increase in doxie burrowing/cuddling habits.

It's entertaining to see how different their habits are when it comes to wanting to burrow.
Zelda much prefers a lap to snuggle on, so even when she's under a blanket, she's still on top of you. She also typically hates having her head covered. She wants to be able to keep an eye on what's going on at all times.

Scooby, on the other hand, is the complete opposite. If she's under a blanket, you won't know she's there unless you notice a strange looking lump. For her to have her rear-end hanging out last night was odd. She loves to bury her head. Even when she is snuggling in a lap, she will find a spot to bury her head.

Case in point. In this picture, Zelda is snuggling up to me, while still under the blanket. Scooby is there, but she is the lump at the top left.

As much as I dislike the cold weather, this winter may not be too bad. I have two perfect lap warmers who love to cuddle with me under a blanket. Who would have ever thought I would look forward to cold winter nights?

Bye Bye Mr. Sun

Back when Scooby had her emergency vet visit, the girls were given a new squeaky toy. Zelda was by far more interested than Scooby, and has since torn Mr. Sun's face off. But she had fun with him while it lasted.
