A Pressie from Putter

We got an envelope in the mail from our goodest and bestest friend, Putter, on Wednesday!
It's a list of Airedale rules that need to be read over and over and followed to the letter! Mom said that she'd be framing this and hanging it in the kitchen!Can you read it?
It says:

1. The Airedale is not allowed in the house.
2. Okay, the Airedale is allowed in the house, but only in certain rooms.
3. The Airedale is allowed in all rooms, but has to stay off the furniture.
4. The Airedale is only allowed on the old furniture.
5. Fine, the Airedale is allowed on all the furniture, but is not allowed to sleep with the humans on the bed.
6. All right, the Airedale is allowed on the bed, but only by invitation.
7. The Airedale can sleep on the bed whenever he wants, but not under the covers.
8. The Airedale can sleep under the covers every night.
9. Humans must ask permission to sleep under the cover with the Airedale!
10. In all cases of dispute...........
the Airedale rules!

What do you think? Is the kitchen the best room for this to hang and should it be framed in gold?

We met new Airedale friends recently! Their names are Inky and Molly and they have a blog!
They're adorable and very normal mischievous Dales and if you haven't met them, please stop by and say hi when you get a chance! Their comment section is now working and I'm sure they'd all love to hear from us!

And we have another new blog to tell you about! This one is about Minnie and Mickey, the Cockatiels! This is Mickey Mouse cockatiel! Isn't he just beautiful!The writer of this blog is mom's 11 year old niece! You've just got to stop by and see Minnie and Mickey's itsy bitsy babies, Donald and Daisy! They're being hand-raised!

So until next time.....................

Love ya lots,

Maggie and Mitch

  9. Hey M and M
    I think you should post the rules at human eye level. Do u think I can pass as an airedale?

    Well stop by your new friends. Mickey mouse is a Q T pie.

  13. Those rules are great! It should definately be framed in gold and I think you should have a copy placed in every room to serve as a constant reminder to your parents.

  16. M&M, I am going to be so outnumbered by terrierists when I am in the US. I think it will be obvious, since I will be the unique one out of the bunch, that all terriers must obey the lab ... Okay, lab X.

    My mom has a big important question for you. She is wondering how long the hike on Sleeping Giant is and how rigorous it is. She is wondering whether my shoulders can take it, but I keep telling her, I can do anything!!!

  25. Maggie and Mitch,
    Personally WE think The Rules should be in the bathroom...right next to the toilet...where the humines can read them (and be reminded of them) OFTEN. Also so that any house guests know the house rules right away!

    We've just come back from visiting Inky and Molly. Two more awesome airedales. Yep. We like them

    Finally - thanks ever so much for your kind support during Fergi's "condition" and "procedure". Friends make things like the past week sooooo much easier!

    Your buds,
    Jake and Fergi

  27. Airedale rules! What a great rule and definitely worth being framed. It ties in nicely with the post that I've tagged you guys for. Come over and see what it is.

  28. Those Airedale rules are really Airedale realities. Are Inky and molly as glutonous as youse guys/ Is that and Airedale trait or just a Maggie and Mitch trait?
    - TBH

  29. OMD....those rules are hilarious! My Mom thought they were so funny she read them to my Dad who also laughed and they said there should be one exactly like that for the Rhodesian Ridgeback too. :)

  38. It's so interesting how we all have our own doggie preference. Love them all but we do have which breed captures out hearts!
    I LOVE birds and have five of them in the family room! I need their chatter to wake up to in the mornings!
