Paw Flapper

Mom ordered kibble from Mr Chewy for us a couple of days ago.  If you spend $50, shipping is free.   Our Taste of the Wild falls short of the $50, so instead of paying for shipping, mom goes a wee bit over the limit and we get a freebie - at least that's what mom calls it.
On Wednesday, our order came.
We got a Paw Flapper as our freebie!

 Mom loaded treats inside the flappers and then let us have at it~

 As predicted, Molly figured it out first!
No, Molly - I am not a big dummy!

It wasn't long before I figured it out too!

That was fun!
Mom says that next time we will try this separately to see if we can find all 8 treats!

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

Love ya lots♥

Miss Kate

Our goodest and bestest friend Putter's mom, Miss Kate, was here on Thursday to visit us.  She had lunch with us and she came bearing pressies!  Are we the luckiest pups or what?! 
This picture was posted on facebook not long ago and we think it's just the most beautiful portrait of Putter and her mom♥

Look at all of the tennis balls she brought me, Miss Molly!  My favorite one is the purple one but you knew that, right?

 She brought Mitch a rope toy.  Mitch LOVES rope toys!  
Yes, I tried to snag his rope toy and he tried to steal my purple ball so that makes us evenStephen~~

 Miss Kate brought mom this fabulous AireCard~    We need to frame this, mom!

Thank you so very much for your visit, Miss Kate!  We sure did have the greatest time hanging out with you and we LOVE our pressies!

Love ya lots♥

From One Princess To Another

We got a package in the mail yesterday. It was from Princess Khyra and it was addressed to PRINCESS Molly and Mitch!

 The note about sharing is clearly for you, Molly!

 Something sure smells good in here!

 It's not exactly bedtime yet and mom was kind enough to let us have treats!

 Mom got a snazzy keyring that she loves!

 And we also got a cute ice cream collar tag and mom gave it to Maggie AireBear.  She said that it would last longer this way!

 And we got the neatest orbee-tuff ball!  It has the most awesome bounce and it smells like mint!

 Remember that we're supposed to share, Molly!

 I don't think that Molly understood the note. Either that or she's pretending that she doesn't understand!  That would be more like it!

Thank you so very much, Khyra!   We sure did have a fun time opening your box and we LOVE all of the goodies that you sent!  Molly just loves that ball!

Love ya lots♥
Mitch and Princess Molly

Our Garden Shades

We're teaming up with Ranger  and Frankie and wearing our sunglasses!

It's a gloriously beautiful bright sunny day in the garden today!
These glasses aren't shading our eyes much, are they?

This is better, don't you think?

Now we're can enjoy the sunny day!

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

Love ya lots♥

Poppies

Guess what mom discovered in her garden early on Monday morning?
It's her very first purple poppy ever!  Our friends Aunt Lydia and Dave sent mom the seeds and mom sprinkled them in the autumn and again in early spring and she prayed.  Her prayers were answered ♥

And look what mom discovered yesterday morning~~
A huge white poppy and 3 more purple poppies!
We LOVE poppies!

Love ya lots♥

Dad's Latest Idea

Our dad's latest and greatest idea is that our pond needs an island so that the waterfowl can nest safely and comfortably if they'd like to~

 The excavator is placing tons of huge rocks into the pond and stacking them until they are above the water level.  Dad says our pond is 6 foot deep in places so it took a lot of rocks! 

 Fast forward - our friend Darin brought us a huge truckload of wood chips and the excavator spread them all over the top of the rocks and dirt like icing on a cake.
The mallards are already checking out the new island but the only customers we've seen on the island so far are turtles!

The excavator is all set to head home.  OMG, this thing is HUGE!
That's our Smoke Tree in front of the excavator.  Isn't it pretty!

 This is a close up of the smokes.  They feel so soft~

 The black swan brothers  are doing great!

 And the mute swan sissies have a new barnacle goose bodyguard!

 We had a Canada goose mom and dad here earlier in the year and they had 2 goslings.  We had an incident recently that scared all of the birds and they took off for the afternoon.   They all came back except for Mr and Mrs Canada goose and 1 gosling.   We discovered that one gosling was still here and he was crying for his mom and dad and sibling.
Guess who the new gosling's mom and dad are?   Fatassloudmouth and her mate! 
They're actually great parents and they stepped up the plate to foster this gosling when he needed help!  They guard the little guy with their lives like he was their very own.
awwwwwwwwww  

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

Love ya lots♥

Chicken Feets

One of the treats that Miss Elaine and Sunshade brought to us when they came to visit was freeze-dried chicken feets~

 We've never had them before but they smell good and both of us are willing to try any new treat!

 Molly is really getting into them. They're very crunchy!

 It's hard to tell by this photo, but I'm taking my sweet time.   I'm not quite sure about chicken feets! hummmmmm

 Molly thought that she was going to strongpaw me and steal my chicken foot even though I'm not sure that I really want it.  Can you see my evil sissie's lip starting to curl up at me?
No way am I giving it up!  You don't deserve it!

 You can have the left-over crumbs, Molly!

 I need a drink to cleans my palate!

We will see if I like them better next time!
Thank you so very much again, Miss Elaine and Sunshade!  We wish that your visit could have been a whole lot longer!

Love ya lots♥
Mitch and Molly

A Treat Review

Mr Chewy wrote to us a short time ago and asked if he could send us treats to try and review.  SURE!!!!!!!
When boxes arrive with treats in them, we can't wait to open them!

 We had never had the Orijen original dog treats before.
It's freeze dried chicken nuggets and  they smell and taste AWESOME!

Thank you so much for letting us try these out, Mr Chewy!  We give them 4 paws up and mom says that we will definitely be buying more the next time we place our order!

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

Love ya lots♥

Missing our Special Guests

Mom took Miss Elaine and Sunshade to the AirePort yesterday morning bright and early and when she got back home,  she felt so glum.   We so enjoyed meeting them in person and spending lots of quality time with them.
We never told you that they came bearing so many treats - yummy ones~~

 And beautiful ones!

 Many of you will probably think this is strange but it's Sunshade's fur and mom asked Miss Elaine for it because she wants to needle felt a candle mat for Miss Elaine using Sunshade's fur.  We'll have to share the results with you when she's all done. 

 Miss Elaine even brought mom a magazine with an article and pictures.  It proves that Sunshade is truly a celebrity!

 They brought us pineapple cakes.  The best way we can describe them is that it's like a Fig Newton but it's pineapple instead of fig. They are very yummy!

 We had so much fun posing with Miss Sunshade and getting lots of treat rewards.  Notice how we  are keeping our distance from her.  She demands her space!  What a diva!

We loved hanging out in the workshop while the girls carved and created. 

 We sure do miss our very special guests.

Please come back soon and stay as long as you'd like to!  We love you Miss Elaine and Sunshade!

Mitch and Molly♥
