Well, here I am again.....

Hi Bloggies,

I tell ya that when ya are havin' fun, time certainly does fly. Here it is the middle of July and I haven't posted fer a long time. But I just want ya all ta know that I, Dewey Dewster, am still alive and well and guarding our little corner of the world.

Ya just never know if a robber or even worse, a vermin, will venture inta our yard or dare ta come inta our HOUSE. If they even TRY, I am ready fer 'em. Yes siree !!!

Update on My MOM

 

Well, in case ya fergot, last October and November, my Mom had 2 surgeries ta remove a cancerous tumor from 'er right hind leg. It was a fibrosarcoma, and the surgeon said that it would come back with a vengeance unless my Gram took my Mom fer many radiation treatments.

 

But Gram felt that at the age of 11, my Mom would not be able ta take all of those treatments (maybe 20 to 25 treatments) with a general anesthetic each time so she decided ta try a more natural approach. Gram found the Dr. Budwig Cancer Diet 'n she has been givin' my Mom the protocol from it now fer 8 months now.... along with some vitamins and supplements and good foods like Broccoli, a cancer fighting veggie. Yep, ya may snub yer nose up at broccoli but the 3 of us, we just love it. Gram loves it too.

 

Well, here ya can see yer yerself how my Mom looks taday.

 

 

What ? Ya say? Ya can't see my Mom?

 

Well, that sure is her just curled up in that little tub of water. She loves ta do that after we get hot playin' a game of ball. That is how she cools off.

Maybe ya can see 'er a little bit better here as she came up fer a bit of air.

We actually do have a bigger pool but Gram loves ta see Mom get into those little tubs.

Funny, ain't it?

See, here we are in our bigger pool.

There was a sprinkler on and we wanted ta get the falling water.

We sure love bein' up at the cottage but it has been a really hot few days here.

The weather all over has been hot as Hates, but we think relief is comin' this weekend.

 

See, My Mom looks pretty healthy, doesn't she?

Toby tried ta jump up ta heaven ta get that falling water.

This sure is a great way ta get cool on a hot day....and that well water is ice cold too.

Refreshin' I say..... absolutely refreshin' !!!!

A Special little visitor

 

Gram 'n Pap went up ta Erie, Pa. one day when we were up here at the cottage ta visit a friend who had moved inta a new neighborhood. This little guy was layin' out on their patio while Gram 'n Pap were there.

He's hidin' beside the grill and maybe he thinks that no one can see 'em......silly guy !

Here's a close up picture of the little fellow who seems ta have had a bit of an accident on the concrete. Guess he isn't house broken or patio broken either.

 

 But he sure was cute and looked so docile just restin' there. There have been 2 fawns in their neighborhood lately and they are just makin' everyone smile a lot when they see 'em.

 

 *******

Well, it sure has been nice ta visit with ya again but I really have ta get back ta work. I think I heard a noise out front and I want ta make sure both Gram 'n Pap are safe.

The job of a wire fox terrier is NEVER DONE !

 

It is an Important job and I do it well !

This is Dewey Dewster sayin'  "Hi" ta all the bloggers out in the world. Keep safe and healthy and if yer Mom gives it ta ya, remember ta always eat yer Broccoli !

Geez....No posts since March......So Sorry !!!!

Hello ta all....

Well, I can hardly believe that we have not published a post since March.......

now that is unacceptable !!!!

Did ya like that "Unacceptable".....

that's a new word that I learned taday and it certainly fits the bill here ,

cause we really have NOT posted anythin' since March 2012.

The truth of the matter is that we have not really been doin' anything excitin' lately.

But since we are all here right now, I tackled Gram and told her to let me use the computer.

So here I am.....Dewey Dewster....

Filin' another report on what we have been doin' fer the past 3 months...

Well.....

Maybe there's not enough time ta tell ya EVERYTHING that we have been doin'......

But we can sure at least tell ya a little bit of what we have been doin' lately anyway....

So......here goes...... 

A couple weeks ago...

I hurt my left leg....or my left paw....can't remember which one....

So I had ta take ta my sick bed........

Yep, Gram....'n Pap too..... had ta carry me everywhere.......

up the steps....

down the steps.....

Why they even had ta put me in and pick me outta my sick bed.....

It took a few days before I felt better....

 

Then I got up outta my sick bed and got back ta bein' Dewey.....

Since I was feelin' better, Gram gave me a haircut....

I have ta remember that fer next time......

So I can stay in my sick bed longer and then avoid the haircut......

Things were pretty boring after that fer awhile....then....

We got ta come back ta the cottage....

When we go there.....we play ball.....lots of ball.....

When my Mom gets hot....she likes ta cool off.....

If the pool isn't out, she just plops in any bit of water available....

Ever wonder how my Mom gets inta that little pan?

Here's how....



So now ya know....amazin' isn't it ??????

Well, that's my Mom !!!!

Ya know....when we are up the cottage......the vermin are everywhere....

Ya just never know when ya might run inta one.....

There was this big black snake in the side yard and we felt so threatened....

That we had ta attack it.....

 Yep.....ya can see how scary the bugger was.....

Ya know....this is the same snake that we attacked once before....

He was pretty stupid ta come back again.....

Ya always have ta be on yer toes up here in the woods.....


Ya might enjoy my attempt at rippin' that monster apart.....

I think I got the best of 'em......yep.....fer sure.....

So I will leave ya with a snapshot of me restin' with MY BALL......

MY BALL.....

Remember that.....MY BALL

This is Dewey Dewster here......reportin' on what we three terriers have been doin' lately......

Happy Double Barkday....Asta Marie & Dewey

Hello ta all of Blogland....

Dewey Dewster here....
Guess what ??? Me 'n my Mom have October Barkdays......Mom's barkday is October 15th and mine is October 31. Yeah, I know a Halloween baby.....I'm not gettin' dressed up fer it either....no siree....

But Gram decided ta celebrate in between the two days and so this morning we had our Barkday Party complete with cupckes and party hats .........

And dog biscuits too......added fer that special doggie touch.......



Gram made us wait ta eat so she could get a picture of us before we dug inta the goodies and messed up our hats.....


And so we all got to eat the yummy cupcakes. Now ya may notice that Gram started ta sing the Happy Barkday song fer us but her bein' old 'n all fergot it's Happy Barkday not Happy Birthday......geez, ya gotta watch those old ones all the time.........they just can' get with the program at all.....

Well, if ya noticed, Toby just loves ta eat goodies....heck Toby, just loves ta eat anythin' at all so he was in 7th heaven and wishes we could have these parties more than twice a year. Truth be told....so do me 'n my Mom.......we have ta work on arrangin' that fer sure.......

Fer the super-easy 'n super-delicious icing, here's the recipe....
Super Special Icing
1 brick of cream cheese softened
1 8 oz. container of cool whip defrosted
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp. vanilla

Whip all ingredients in bowl with electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Spread on your favorite cake or cupcakes. Yummy......

Yep, we're hoping we get ta celebrate more Barkdays in the very near future. Maybe we can celebrate with Baby Parker in February. Now that's somethin' ta look forward to.

This is Dewey Dewster reportin' on me 'n Mom's Barkday.... 'n Babystan the man......

A Terrier-ific Meeting

Wow….ya just won’t believe what we did this past Tuesday…….come on now….....try ta guess anyway…….put yer thinkin’ cap on ‘n give it a twirl……spin yer bully stick ‘n see where it stops…….did ya figure it out now????

Oh well….guess I’ll have ta tell ya then. We, as in me… Dewey Dewster, my Mom… Asta Marie ‘n the red headed step-child…. Toby, met the famous canine healthcare professional, Lacie….nurse extraordnaire , ‘n her big terrier brother BabyStan complete with his huge jaws. Oh yeah…. ‘n Mumsie came along fer the ride too…..well…..Ok…. she drove ‘em ta the park cause Lacie didn’t have ‘er own car…’n maybe her drivers license was revoked fer some minor infraction too.

We got ta go with Gram ‘n Pap cause we don’t have our own kar like Koobie….’n we don’t have a driver license either….’n we like ta leave the drivin’ ta them so we can watch out fer other doggies that might be out and about while we’re on the way.

We were so excited ta meet them cause while we don’t live that far away…we just never got ta make their acquaintance before. Why, Toby even got ta ride in the car fer the first time without bein’ in his crate cause he hasn’t been getting’ car sick lately…..’n that’s progress, I tell ya…..progress.

Now, Scruffy didn’t get ta come cause Mumsie woulda really had a hard time controllin’ the 3 of ‘em…….I heard he was heartbroken cause they left ‘em at home by ‘emself. But maybe we can meet 'em another time cause I was sorry he didn't get ta come.

We met in North Park. It's a county park not too far away 'n they have a place ta walk yer doggies 'n port-a-johns 'n fountains placed along the way so ya can get a drink 'n use the facilities ta get rid of it too. We walked a bit after the introductions were over....'n stopped by the funny tree along the way ta take some pictures. Except if ya get all of us in the picture....ya loose the funny stuff on the tree.

It was pretty hot that day so we stopped ta get a drink 'o water at one 'o the fountains where there was a bowl ta drink outta. My Mom was pretty hot 'n she always knows the way ta cool off quick....yep....ya guessed it....she climbed inta the bowl 'o water. That was a small bowl too.....
Then she got curled around ta get her whole body inta the water.

If ya really wanta get cool... ya gotta get yer face right in there too.....way ta go Mom.....

After ya get a bit cool... ya can come up fer air....'n drip off a bit.....

This is one of the best pictures of the group 'o us cause we are all lookin' forward at the same time. Ya ever try ta get 5 doggies ta look the correct way at the same time?????
Then there's just the 3 of us on the picnic table......Gram just took a bunch 'o hair off me 'n Mom so we look pretty well groomed fer a change......
Then there's Lacie, my love (or is she?) 'n BabyStan....now does he look like a baby ta ya at all ??? Why he's bigger than all of us put together fer sure....... Mumsie asked Gram ta bring her groomin' tools ta show 'er what they looked like....'n Gram got poor Lacie 'n took all the hair off her ears.......bet she wished she stayed at home instead of Scruffy....
Now, Gram got her video camera out 'n took a bit 'o us checkin' each other out. I call it Lovin' Lacie......cause I was really in love with 'er....til we met...that is.....see why..........

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can ya believe my sweet Lacie acted like that fer real ???? Maybe she was just mad cause Gram took all that hair off her ears....don't know why.....cause she didn't need it.......

I almost think she doesn't like us at all.....er, well maybe it was that time 'o the month. What do ya think ?????

It was time ta go home but before we left, I had ta give Mumsie one 'o my big wet kisses. I, Dewey Dewster, am a lover fer sure..... Now can ya see why I'm known as such a sensitive guy....'n Mumsie had the softest nose I ever kissed......

Gee......we sure hope we get ta go on another walk with the terrific terriers 'n Mumsie too. Next time we hope ta meet Scruffy ......

This is Dewey Dewster reportin' on a very special meetin'.......
