Let's Talk About Art..........



My Mom bought an egg on the website eBay
And I just wanted to share it with you all today.

See the wiry fox terrier full of such fun.
I know you will think he's a real special one.

Do you see the foxy, just lookin at you?

Where there was one, now there are two.

My Mom thought two terriers were cute as can be,

When “The Terrier Two” became “The Terrier Three.”

Now we were admiring and not keeping score,

When the terrier three had a terrier four.

And to our amazement, “Great Foxies Alive!”

Those four little foxies gave up number five.




They’re all nesting eggs and aren’t they just sweet.
Five foxies , five sizes, five faces to meet.

We enjoyed each expression and then they were done.
They all nested again and then there was one.












.



These eggs are real special to my Mom and me
And the author’s not Dewey, it’s Asta Marie.

Now wasn't that much more refined than anything Dewey posts?




This is Lady Asta Marie Foxwire reporting for the Wire Fox Terrier Network, WWFT, from Pittsburgh, Pa. Back to you...........

Getting to Know You.......

Hi Friends,
We wanted everyone to get to know us a little better and so we thought we could share some video of us and our neighborhood. You know sort of like Mr. Rogers would have done in his neighborhood. So Gram tried to get some good video but all the best laid plans......we have some video.....not exactly what we wanted. But you can get an idea of how we live and see a bit of our neighborhood.

Now, we also need a little help here. Ya see, Toby is just a puppy still, being not quite 7 months old. And he hasn’t figured out what a walk is really for yet. He gets so excited on his lead; he just acts like a nut. Why, he doesn’t smell the pee mail on the street and even worse he doesn’t leave any pee mail on the street. I mean, what are walks really for?

So maybe someone can help us out here and tell us what we can do to get Toby to really appreciate the walks we take and the pee mail that everyone else leaves for us to find. Can anyone give us any suggestions? We would really appreciate any help we can get.

If you watch closely in this video, you will see a new friend depositing some pee mail for us to find. We didn’t even sniff it though, because we were more interested in meeting the guy. But we’ll find it the next time we take a walk. Oh boy, the delicious aroma of pee mail !!!!!

Enjoy the show and please submit any suggestions ya have for "gettin Toby with the program" in comments. The video may take a while to load, so please be patient.









We also were given an huge honor today by Koobuss of Mountain Top.....we got our first award...which we will proudly display for all to see..... Thanks Koobuss, we love ya.

Terrific Triple Tuggin Terriers


Tuggin is a lot of fun. My Mom really doesn’t want to tug much with me lately, even though she spent a lot of time teaching me how to tug in the first place. See Toby and me tug while my Mom watches?


Now that Toby has joined us, I get to tug a lot more. A little while ago, Koobuss sent us all some really swell toys and the bunny ring makes an especially great tug toy. Sometimes now even my Mom wants to tug with us.


Look at us go!!!!! Ya gotta get a really good hold on the thing to make sure you can maneuver around. Of course, ya need to growl the whole time too. I know ya can’t hear us, but believe me we are really growling. Grrrrrr, grrrrrr, grrrrr


If you do this right, no one looses their grip on the toy and you can move around the room growling and tuggin the whole way. Now that's Tuggin 101. Great fun!!!!


Of course, all that work gets you really tired and you have to rest a spell. That gets you ready for the next big tug. Neat, huh? Later, guys……zzzzzzzzzzzz

We're Getting Packed Away



Well, my Gram has decided that there is just too much stuff laying around here anymore and she went out and bought storage containers to pack some things away. Lots of other stuff is getting given away too. Storage containers are interesting things to explore.
See Asta Marie ( my Mom) checking out the container above.



And here I am checking out the container......I needed to make sure that none of our toys were gettin packed away....ya can never have too many toys, can ya?




Do ya think my Mom can get otta here if she needs to?



Sometimes I just like lookin' cute......do I look cute enough here?



Oh well.......that's just Toby trying to make sure he gets seen by everyone. Why didn't he get in the container? Scardy cat !!!!!

A Special Visitor......a matter of opinion


Hello All,

Last night we had a visit from a funny looking hooman. He couldn't walk....He couldn't talk.....he didn't even sit up.... he cried......he was little....almost a little as we are.....He also made funny noises. We all had to check him out. See My Mom and Toby trying to get close to the little hooman....He smelled funny......we thought he was interested in our chew sticks....and we were happy when he left......our chew sticks were still here....

I think Gram said he was a baby....we never saw a baby before.....Isn't he funny looking? What kind of baby doesn't have much hair. My Mom, Asta, had 4 babies and we all had lots of hair....we could walk and we could talk, well bark anyway.....I would take this one back....he's defective.....don't you think so?

Let Us Introduce Ourselves

Well hello all,
Our friend Koobuss has been telling us for a long time now that we needed our own blog. And now that Toby had joined our little family, we figure we need one too. So our Mom decided to at least enter some information on this site to tell everyone (just in case they are interested) where they can find us. Oh yeah, and where they can find out what we have been up to. So let me tell you who we are. First there was Asta Marie, the Mom ( age 6) who had a litter of 4 puppies on October 31, 2006. Hooman Mom decided to keep Dewey from the litter( bad move hooman Mom). He turned 1 year old last Halloween (and he is scary too). Then the hoomans in this family got really drunk and brought a Lakeland terrier home.........his name is Toby (Age 6 months) and he arrive on February 1, 2008. And so now there are 3 wires (although not all Foxies) living here in suburban Pittsburgh, PA. So now you know there are 3 of us and we live outside of Pittsburgh, Pa. and our hoomans are a little wacky.....what else can we tell you?
