    Weaklink, your doggies made me tired... :yawn:

    I think I may have found a sister for Lois! If we get her she will actually be Lois's older sis. She is a 5 year old Jack Russell named Penny. She has the same markings as Lois on her face. My first JRT was all white and her name was Penny. That poor girl was still a baby when she found her way out to the road and didn't come back :frown: :brokenheart: :sad: Soooo sad. I only had her for about 8 months before my now DH and I moved into an apartment where we couldn't take her. One of my mom's friends wanted to give her a good home with other doggies but right before we left to take her there she was hit by a car. Makes me want to cry just thinking about it. We have an underground electric fence for Lois at our house and even a real wooden fence now but we still use the electric just to be safe. She knows her boundaries so she won't leave her yard unless we take her.

    ANYWAY -- This 5 year old girl needs a new home because her mommy inherited her mother's 2 dogs and her apartment only allows 2 dogs. I think maybe an *older* sister would be the best thing for Lois. Now I just have to convince DH of that! :bigsmile:

    Bad news first had a bad news telephone call this morning. My brother is in the hosppital with Prostate cancer and they gave him 2 days to 2 weeks to live. So I have been at the hospital the biggest part of the day. We knew he was getting worse, but I don't think you are ever ready for it. They are getting Hotpice line up and will take him home. For there is nothing else to do for him. It has reach his brain.

    Well it certainly look like all the pooches had a nice weekend.
    Lexie may get an older sister. How wonderful! I wouldn't know what to do with two Sammies. Oh boy.
    Lolo busy little girl today.
    The three piggies are up to michief.

    Hello Everyone.

    Just had to drop in to tell a "Doggie Story." What better place than here?:bigsmile:

    A couple of days ago I was eating a banana and Bradley came and started giving me that "please share" look with the big expressive brown Yorkie eyes, so I put a little on my finger, and he about bit it off scarfing down the banana. About this time, Pepper came long with his big brown Shih tzu eyes, and gave me the "Hey mom, why does Bradley get all the goodies?" look, so I put a little more on my finger and he inhaled it. Both returned immediately for more, and were quite disappointed that there were limits to how much of my breakfast they would get to share!!:laugh:

    Forward to yesterday morning, another banana--only this time part of it broke off, and fell on the floor. I attempted to retrieve it, but little Bradley the "Terror" swooped in and grabbed it, and when I tried to recapture it, he growled at me,:noway: and ran into the living room--with Pepper in hot pursuit!! They made short work of that banana, and I found something else to complete my breakfast!!:laugh:

    So I guess I have a couple of "Banana Hounds." As for Mai Li, my Lhasa Apso--she was given an opportunity to partake of banana, but gave it a sniff, and walked away in absolute disinterest--surprising for her as she never met a calorie she didn't like--much like her momma!!!:laugh: :laugh:

    Take care all.

    LOL :bigsmile: . We have what we call the PBHs-Peanut Butter Hounds. They will sit and watch as you get the PB from the fridge and start drooling. They also love veggies-carrots, bellpeppers, celery, and spinich. They are such weirdos.

    Glad everyone enjoyed my story of "The Banana Hounds." I guess it makes sense, when I think about it--at times all three of them have been known to drive me "bananas!!:laugh:

    When I told my mom this story, she replied "It makes sense they would like bananas. They are a couple of little monkeys!!!":noway: :laugh:

    BTW, the latest transgression involved a partial container of grape tomatoes. Bradley and company took care of them after they fell off, or were knocked off:bigsmile: the counter. So I came home last night and found an empty tomato container and some happy faces.

    My first Shih tzu, the grey one pictured in my ticker, LOVED tomatoes. His favorite tread food was spaghetti and marinara sauce. :heart: He was so bummed when we found out he was allergic to tomatoes and to wheat, as it meant this treat was a no-no. I have a picture of him with a little orange "beard" as a result of a feast of his favorite food.:bigsmile:

    How was everyones weekend?
    We still haven't had the floors fixed yet (insurance company is slow)...so we are still at my in-laws. The hosted the party last night...so we helped clean everything up afterwards, I didn't get in the bed until almost 1am and even then I still had to stay up and read for a while. I'm dragging....gave up caffeine for NY and it's ended almost all my headaches and I don't want to blow it today by having coffee. Grr. Anyhoo, how are the pups? Mine were confined in their crate last night during the game (chaos would rule if they were out, lol).

    Hi Everyone and Hello Doggies.

    The piglets are all passed out in various states of slumber and I am trying to get myself to bed, because I have to be at work at 6 AM :noway: on Wednesday, and it is almost midnight, but I am addicted to Nightline, and don't usually have to go to work til about noon, so here I am.

    Maid, hope you get back in your house soon.

    Marie, Give Sammy a hug for me, and tell them he has three little buddies in Washington state.

    So long for now.


    Barb.

    Lois definitely likes spring better, just like her mom. We can't wait to get outside and play with her. She may or may not have a new sister by then... we keep going back and forth whether or not we want to get one. We are selfish for Lois's love.

    Does Sammy keep you warm when you get cold weather and snow?

    Good morning!
    We will not be moving back into the house for at least another week (it's been 4 weeks, I'm on my last nerve).
    Marie-Has Sammy adjusted to the snow yet?
    We're expected to get an inch or two here....south of us is supposed to get up to three. Anyhoo, hope all goes well for everyone over the weekend.

    Yep...snow in the south isn't the best thing that could happen. We had 2 1/2 inches where I live and trying to get home before it truly started accumulating was pretty bad...couldn't see a thing.
    I have learned that my jrt/chichihua loves the snow though. The other two not so much.

    We were expected to have another 1-2 inches on Monday night...and we didn't get any (thank goodness). Saturday after 2 inches fell my daughter and I went sleding...that was my only cardio that day-but it was so much fun.
    How are all the pups?
