Elvis and Omega Treats

Hello Furiends, Winter is here and we are ready for the cold with extra insulation ... that's our story and we're sticking to it! BOL

As all you smart pooches and kitties noticed, there's an extra somebuddy in this pic. That imposter is Our Mom's baby brother, Elvis, he is mom's parent's boy, so mom says that makes him her baby brother, our uncle?? talk about confusing , since he was refered to as our cousin while he was here. Elvis came to stay with us for a week recently. We were not impressed at first but he kinda grows on ya, with all the snorting and wheezing. Mom and Dad dubbed him Monkey Boy and went on and on 'bout what a good boy he is..blah, blah

He went home, more cuddles and treats for us!!

Barking 'bout treats, we also recently got a sample in the mail of Omega Treats. The maker of these little morsels of heaven (we think it's the same guy that invented love)contacted our blog administrator, and we are thrilled that our blog raked in some of these bites of taste bud-blowing,drool inducing, delight for us. Can you tell we freakin love them?? As soon as the bag of duck flavoured ones opened our sniffers went into high alert and it was all eyes on that person with the bag Mom. And they're made with healthy stuff like omega 3 and 6, and with human grade foods, not junk.

"Whatchya got there, Mom? Huh? Can't you see we're STARVING down here?"

"O MY DOG!!! It's like chocolate for US!!"

One last picture of us with whatshisname, we hope everyone is enjoying getting ready for Christmas, and not getting stressed or anxious. Mom says this time of year isn't always a happy time for everyone, and if anyone out there needs a little lift, remember , as always, we are sending you great big

Grins and Kisses,

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,

Ying and Yang

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!

Ying and Yang

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

Love to Penny, thanx for the sunshine

We were sads this weekend, as our sweet friend Penny had to leave to the Rainbow Bridge, but we are also happy that she is running free, free of pain and sickness, and we know we will all see her again one day. Until then, we love you and miss you Penny, and will think of you and your sexy beefyness whenever we see whipped cream.

Mom had a tough week(job stress, blah blah) so she relaxed lots, which we love cuz it means more cuddles for us.

Yang did a bunch of this

Ying did a heap of this

Then we tried it together

On Sunday Yang had a tantrum cuz she snuck out the door with Dad and thought she was gonna get in the car with him, but nooo, him and Mom went to a family birthday party without us! But then they took us for a ride when they came back( Yang has Dad wrapped around her paw) and we stopped at this rest stop nearby. The sun was shining all day(we think Penny sent it) and we were SURE it was spring, but it was minus 92 degrees by the creek! We had fun anyway.

Mom's worried her camera might be starting to kaff out, some of the pictures are getting weird lines across them (you can kinda see them in the last one) Bummer. It was one of the best around when she got it and she paid a small fortune for it, you'd think it would last at least 578 years! BOL

We hope all of you have a grrreat week filled with sunshine and lots of cuddle time.

Grins and Kisses,

Ying and Yang

Three-fur Thursday

Hello to all our bloggy friends, we want you to know that we love reading your bloggys, even if we (Mom) is too lazy to post very often. We love reading about all your adventures and are always happy to make new furiends.

Here's a couple pictures with captions...Feel free to comment your own, we'd love to know what others think our pictures say.

"OMG, woman, will you put down the camera and get us somethin to eat already"

"See Mom, even my stuffie says I'm a good doggie, so where's my treat?"

"Hmm, what's that you eating? Let me smell it for you, make sure it's ok"

Funny how all our pics are somehow related to food! Making us hungry again(as usual)

Hope everyone has a Terrific Thursday.

Grins and Kisses,

Ying and Yang

Sat(around the house doing nuthin)urday!

We've had a pretty lazy day today, actually a pretty lazy week, that Mom of ours says she's been tired and blah blah blah, what-ever! Today we did get to spend some time outside, but no pictures

"Hey Yang, ya think we should maybe start looking for a new and improved Mom?"

"Yes Ying, I'll advertise for one at the telephone pole if we ever get out of the house again"BOL

First off, we wanna say we're super excited to be collecting followers, we've been reading up on all your blogs(or rather Mom reads them for us, guess she might be good for something, after all) and we are so happy to making furiends!

Here's a picture of these treats Mom bought a few weeks ago, she had a coupon so she got them-if it's a deal she'd buy elephant toenails, SRSLY. Anyway we really liked them, big surprise there, but Mom read the ingredients and she is really wondering....Why the heck would they put SUGAR in dog treats??? Sugar is bad for people, isn't it bad for dogs, too?

So she's asking if anyone out there has a good, easy recipe for dog cookies? She has made them before and we did like them.....again, big surprise....but they were just a stiff dough that had to bake forever and were pretty hard when done. She seen recipes with peanut butter, but then we seen something saying peanuts are bad for dogs, same thing with garlic and Mom used to feed the ones that came before garlic cuz it was supposed to keep fleas away.

Mom is easily....er, highly....confused, she wants us to be healthy and live for like 93 years, but wants us to have some variety. Big kisses for any recipes!

Mom's parents came over for Mom's birthday a few weeks ago and they brought Elvis the pug with them, we haven't seen him much before, so it was kinda chaotic. Ying loved him, she loves everyone.

Yang egged on Rebel so he'd just sit there and bark at him the whole time, and then she sat at Reb's feet and looked pleased with herself, but wouldn't go near Elvis, but Mom made her sit for one picture.

Reb was soooo tired from all that barking, he crashed like this!

Hope everyone has a furtastic weekend!

Mom's been slacking, but here's some pics from when we had lotsa the white stuff!

pee.ess. Mom says she'll help us post more soon

A Smile for Monday

So we hear that the humans really hate Mondays for some reason. Seems like just another day to us, one that Mom and Dad have to go to that place all day so they can get us kibble and treats and toys and stuff. Whatever.

But we wanted to give all the humans somethin to smile about tomorrow and these pics always make Mom snicker, so let your parents have a look and maybe their Monday will be not so bad.

Thanks to all who have left comments and are now our new friends...this bloggy thing is fun!

Grins and Kisses,

Happy Friday!

It's the weekend and that means more Mom and Dad time. It also means more opportunities to mooch food,

"Are you gonna finnish that? Cuz I'm absolutely starving here."

The weekend means more chances to practice our favorite yoga positions.

"Now assume the 'Chillax" pose for a couple of hours"

The weekend means more time to cuddle and be adored.

"Those who serve me, aka Mom and Dad, call me a Sweet Little Thing when I do this"

The weekend means more time for Rebel to just sit around and breathe heavy.

"Not much chance to get a word in edgewise with these two around"

The weekend is for time with our family, and maybe time for making goofy faces!

"Snark!"

Hope your weekend is full of whatever makes you Happy!

Grins and Kisses,

Ying and Yang
