Let them eat cake...

Hello pals, I'm back from my travels! We had a pawfect holiday and I promise I'll show you some photos in my next post. Firstly, I think I should tell you about my birthday. Molly, Seamus and I celebrated in style. I had a yummy cake and loads of scrumptious treats, all from The Dog Dog's Bakery. Do you want to see what was on the menu?





I would have saved all my DWB pals a piece of cake but it was sooooooooo good that we finished it in record time.



We also had lots of lovely treats and Molly and Seamus had their own treat bags to take home ...

Here we are getting in the pawty spirit...

I think Seamus and I ate too much cake!

Thank you for all your lovely comments and good wishes and to everydog (and cat) who mentioned my birthday on their blog, three cheers to you! Special thanks to Precious and Stanley for the e-cards which sadly I can't reproduce here and to Pinky for the dog jokes.

Butchy & Snickers sent me this...

Thanks pals!

Finally, I want to say a special thank you to Asta NYC who got me a wonderful present. You may remember from an earlier post that I said that I didn't want any gifts and perhaps you would consider making a donation to charity instead? Asta asked me if I had a particular charity in mind that she could donate to and I chose The Daisy Fund. This charity helps with medical bills for Fox Terriers that have been rescued. Thank you Asta, that was such a thoughtful gift.

All in all it was a wonderful birthday. Roll on next year!

Blog off!

I'm going to be off blog for a few days, having fun with Molly & Seamus the Irish Terriers. Toodle pip!

Introducing Miss Peach Jackson

Let's get one thing straight. I hate cats. Always have, always will. You all know that. Well, imagine my surprise when I was dared by Miss Peach Jackson to become her friend. I was a little bit wary at first but she does share the same name as me so she can't be all bad, can she? And she's got some guts, daring ME, a renowned cat-hater.





Anyway, I've decided to grant her a special dispensation so now we're officially pals, but don't tell any other cats; I've still got my reputation to think of!

My new sun tent

J1 bought me a lovely popup sun tent for when we're down at the beach. It's 50+ UPF which means that I stay cool and in the shade. I like to sit at the entrance to watch the world go by.

The yellow hoopy toy I'm munching on here was history about 10 minutes after this photo was taken.

Can you see J1 kinda hunched in the tent behind me? I'm laughing because she bought the "infant" sized tent and still thought she could get in with me. Cheapskate! It's not a Tardis!

Wire Fox Terriers taking over the blogosphere

Have you noticed the ever increasing number of Wire Fox Terriers that are blogging? It's all part of our cunning plan to take over the blogosphere.



Doh! I think I've just blown our cover!


Anyway, I thought I'd take this opportunity to introduce you to some some new wirey pals. Meet Scruffy and his pal Lacie the Lakeland from Pittsburgh, US.




Sedona Rose from Phoenix, US.





Sir Lancelot from Ohio, US.




Bebe from Philadelphia, US.





I mustn't forget to give a bark out to relative newcomers Lenny, Agatha & Archie, Jake & Just Harry and William Tell.


Please visit their blogs and give them your best Dogs with Blogs welcome! Tell them that I sent you. I know they'll be delighted to meet everydog.


PS Keep an eye on the Airedales; I think they're also trying for world blog supremacy!

Revenge!

Regular readers of this blog know how I feel about vets. Newer readers may not be aware that I've had 2 major operations this year which probably helps explain my baaaad attitude. Anyway, when J1 saw this toy she thought it was perfect!

I think I was supposed to pull it apart like this and then let her put it back together again for my repeated pulling apart pleasure. Needless to say, I didn't bother to read the instructions.

I did this instead.

Another job well done!

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!

J1 finally made me a batch of Frosty Paws using Nanook's recipe. You know what? She said it tasted TOO GOOD FOR DOGS! I think I'd better guard the freezer just in case she tries to eat it herself!



You may be wondering what the funny shapes are. No, they're not elephants, they're supposed to be Scottie dogs but they are a little lumpy.



Doh! Brain freeze!

Any chance of seconds?

Once the Frosty Paws was sorted I was able to submit my entries to the Airechicks ice cream eating photo contest in aid of Airedale Rescue of North Texas. If you haven't entered yet read more about it here. Closing date for entries is 4th August. Please take part, it's for a very good cause.
