2. Ying always has to go pee wherever Yang peed, and she lifts her leg whilesquatting!?!

3.We stay in bed with Mom till she gets up, Dad's always up earlier, just means more room in the bed for us BOL

4.Yang will chase dogs (even big ones) away from out yard, but if we see one while walking, she acts all scared, jumping on Mom and crying

5.Ying is a big flirt

6.We loooove carrots

7.We know how to smile on command, Mom's still trying to get a picture of that one

Have a great Thanksgiving to our fellow canadi-dogs, and happy weekend to everybuddy else!

Pedigree said make post....

Yes, we've been on blogging hiatus (or just lazy) , but today Mom was reading us some of our bloggy friends' posts about this campaign Pedigree is doing. So we told Mom "It sure would be nice if we could do a post to help, too" And then we stamped our feet. Then we had temper tantrum. Finally we gave her the most pathetic, guilt inducing looks known to dogdom, and she just had to agree to do as we told her to.

For each blog that posts about the PEDIGREE® Adoption Drive through September 19^th, PEDIGREE® will donate a bag of their new Healthy Longevity Food for Dogs to shelters nationwide. It’s simple: Write a post, help a dog.

Thursday, September 16 through Sunday, September 19, the Pedigree BlogPaws bloggers will host a Blog Hop, to help raise awareness for the “Write a post, help a dog” effort.

Whew!! We can't believe nearly missed the chance to help a shelter feed a dog while they wait for they're furever home. Sure glad Mom listened to our request demand this time and thank you, Pedigree, for caring about the pups out there.

Grins and Kisses,

Hope you have a snicker

This is for all our puggy type friends, in sympathy for all the goofy, embarrassing things your pawrents do to you. And it's for anyone who needs a giggle today. We hope everyone has a fun, relaxing weekend!

A Rose by any other name...would confuse the florist

Hi, it's US! Two posts in 3 days, Mom must be inspired of somethin!! We bugged her to play the name game that Frankie Furter started for the 4th and she gave in. If you don't know, the game is to just tell the story of how you got your name, we think it's a great way to learn more about everyone out there. But first a picture of us from when we was teeny and Rebel was...well, BIG! BOL

First our big brother, Rebel. When Mom and Dad brought him home from their vet's (Dr.Pat is also the boarding facility for the local SPCA, but Rebel was just sorta abandoned there and Dr. Pat was trying to find him a home)his name was Rex. Mom and Dad didn't really like it and he didn't seem to respond to it very well either, but Mom and Dad wanted him to have an "R" name cuz the 2 rottys they had then were Rowdy and Roxxy. Kinda corny but whatever. So they ran thru all the "R" names they could think of and ended up on Rebel, it suited him, he was rather rough and ready as the peoples say.

Now us, we spent the first few weeks after we came home with Mom and Dad calling us "Puppy, Puppy" and get this..."The Ratbags" BOL! Mom wanted us to have some sorta matching names, she can't really remember all the options they went thru, except Roxy for Ying and Moxy for Yang, but on second thought she thought that may make her kinda sad cuz the rotty Roxxy had gone to The Bridge not too long before. Just when it was starting to get worrisome , Dad says to Mom, "Hey, I know, how about Ying and Yang?" and Mom knew right away who was who!

Of course we have lotsa nicknames, and we sometimes still get called "the Ratbags" but we think it don't matter what we're called as long as the ones calling love us no matter what!

Trapped in the sunshine

Help! We're trapped behind this eco-friendly, recycled plastic fence thing....and they don't feed us EVER either...BOL.. ok, the no food thing is obviously a lie as you can tell by our voluptuous figures and the fence that huMom and Dad put up is to keep us safe from the street and so we can spend more time outside without them worrying so much and boy have we been enjoying the Bee-U-Tiful weather! What else is new, you may ask, since our assistant(Mom) hasn't been helping us blog much lately?

This is our brofur Elvis, (we think his name is really "Don't chase the Kitty"), he likes the sunshine too. He seems to like the mint by the stairs, so Mom rubbed some on him the other day, and then he smelled like a stick of gum...shoulda chewed on him a bit to see...BOL

Our Big BroFur Rebel had a nasty looking owwie on his leg a few weeks ago, here's a picture of him looking all sad and pathetic, he had to wear the cone of shame for a while too, but Mom didn't embarrass him by taking a picture of that.

He's feeling muches better now, and is back to enjoying his daily rolls on the lawn.

This is what Mom and Dad have been up to on the days we make them stay home with us, other than the dreaded fence, we have Sunflowers,

the raspberry bushes and getting....bushier,

tomatoes, peppers, cukes, rhubarb, strawberries, basil, oregano, chocolate mint, and a buncha other green things.
And now the cute pictures of Us

Since this is a long weekend for Mom she said we'll join the hop, cuz we should have some time to look at some new blogs, won't you hop along too??

Hope everyone has a Happy July 1st, 4th weekend!

Grins and Kisses,

Hello friends, Mom's been slacking in the blogging department obviously, she blames her lack of creativity, but we think she's just lazy and we've been so busy reading everyone else's to tell her so BOL

About a week ago the parents loaded us all in the car for a ride. Dad drove. And drove. And drove some more. Then we realized the 78 hour drive was to The Vet! That was ok, we love Dr. Pat and the ladies in his office. All of us got checked over. Rebel had all his lumps and bumps checked, got his leg shaved (he had a small owwie there), toe nails trimmed(he won't let Mom do them like we do), and got some chewy pills for his arthritis. Yang got a little bit of tooth scraping. her tummy prodded ( she's had a bit of tummy problems lately) and shots. Ying had her teeth scraped a bit, the indignity of having her anal glands checked ( she did NOT like that) shots,and was told that she is too chunky! Holy furballs, doesn't he know she's big-boned, that she's not fat, just voluptuous? sigh Okay, so maybe we all could stand to lose a little of our "insulation".

This was the motivation Mom needed to get off her butt and walk us more, so yay for us, we love walkies even if we're huffin and puffing at the end BOL Here's hoping we'll be lean, mean, cuddly machines in the near future.

We just found out about this neat Pet blogger hop from Life with Dogs' blog and are trying to participate if Mom figures it all out. It sounds like a lot of fun and a great way to get new bloggy friends, check it out.

Happy Mom Day to everyone, give yours a big wet kiss and have a Furtastic Weekend!

Grins and Kisses,

Ying and Yang
