Fun At The Dog Park

Hey Guys & Gals,

Guess what we got to do last weekend?  We went to our very first ever dog park!  Actually...we went to 2 dog parks with some adventure in between.  You see, we don't tend to play well with other dogs.  Call us crazy but there's just something about them that makes us want to bite their face off (nothing personal).  It doesn't matter the size or what type of dog....in fact the bigger it is the bigger I feel really.  Our peeps took us to the 1st dog park only to leave and before we knew it we were at the pet store.  YES!....toys and treats for us!..yahoo!....except we didn't get any new toys or treats.....we ended up with brand new.....muzzles.  What the??  We've been threatened before but never thought it would actually happen.

Off to dog park # 2 with muzzles on.  Geez...it's hard to bite a German Shepherd's face off when you can't open your mouth!  After we behaved like "normal" dogs, they took them off and boy did we have fun!  We ran...drank some water....ran some more.  Who knew dog parks could be so awesome.  There were no fights between Molly and I when we got home....no bitey face...no running around.  Just sleep....good ol' precious passed out on the floor...sleep.  We could barely move we were so tired. 

Here's some pics of our adventure...at dog park #2.  Enjoy!

One cool mat!

It's Monday again and that really means squat to us poochies.  The days really all mesh into one somedays and we're just happy to be along for the ride. 

A couple of weeks ago our peeps headed off to the Cottage Show in Toronto and boy did they come home with a mitt-ful of information on all kinds of stuff.  The coolest thing they bought us was a new mat. Now I know it doesn't sound interesting now....but they watched the demo and were hooked.  All these other dog owners were lined up saying "I bought one last year and I swear by it".  You see...the mat is made of a special material that absorbs water and helps trap sand, mud, dirt...you get the idea. 

All we do is step on it....jump up and down (you know the usual greeting when coming in from playing in the backyard) and poof...our paws are clean.  No mess on the carpet which makes the peeps very happy.  A couple in a little town called Port Carling, Ontario came up with this idea and we think they're genius.   The mat is so awesome it goes in any kinda washing machine when its really dirty and then in the dryer on a low heat.  Our peeps hang it outside to dry because it's super absorbant. 

In case you want to see what the fuss is about have your peeps go to:  http://www.amazingmat.ca/

They bought us the large one cause there's 2 of us....but they want another just cause it's so awesome. 

Hope you are having a good week so far :)

(Edited to add:  We were not coerced, persuaded, begged or asked to promote this product.  We just think it's awesome and like to support our local creative geniuses....teehehehe.)

Here's some photos of us playing in the backyard with the bubbles....again :)

Bubbles....I love me some bubbles

Happy Saturday! 

So this week the tiny human had these fun round thingies called "bubbles".  Have you peeps seen these before?  I love the tiny human :)

Molly loves the tiny human the most....she listens to her...."sits and stays" when she tells her to and loves to lay on the sofa with her.  I prefer any of the humans to be honest....they think I have separation anxiety....BOL.  They can't go anywhere without me being at their heels....and if the big guy goes up or downstairs without me, I just sit and whine.  I mean...I don't know where he goes...maybe he left the house without me....but I can't bear to think about it.

Here are some photos of the bubble event.  Molly likes to jump in the air and eat them....I'm not as tall so I wait until they get closer to the ground before I get my share.  Check out the holes we've dug :)

Happy Easter & Stuff

Hey Y'all,
Happy Belated Easter!

Word on the street is that a bunny was in our house this weekend.  Let me tell you....if he was then we'd sure as heck have killed the bugger.  You see....we have issues....yep...there I said it.  "Hi my name is Angus and I'm here to tell you that we have "Scottie issues".  You know what I'm talking about right guys?  There are certain things that just drive us terriers ca-razy!....squirrels, birds, rabbits.  Heck we've even had a hard time with a cheetah on that thing on the wall (they call it a tv).  Yeah well...cheetah's, horses and any animal really...we bark at it but it just walks away.  Why is that?  Shouldn't it bark or whatever back at us?

We had a lovely Easter with our peeps and enjoyed some great weather.  We took "them" for a couple of walks and it tires us out.  Not so much bitey face when you have no energy to do anything but nap. Speaking of napping...Molly prefers the top of the sofa while I am partial to the floor.  We got new cushy beds for Easter and the Easter bunny left us each a new bunny toy.  We think he's taunting us.  BOL!  Molly's is still in tact but mine....it has seen better days.  Less than 24 hours and the poor thing is deader than dead.

Anyway....the week has started off with some grooming.  We hope you enjoy our newer photos :)  The first one shows the two of us before dinner....and the second is just Molly.

P.S.  Pay no attention to the wrong date on the pictures....it's WAY past 2008 :)

We're back!

Hey Everyone....so sorry we haven't been around lately.  Life sometimes gets in the way of the fun stuff.  Not that we haven't been up to fun stuff....oh let me tell you....we have :)  But our "assistant" has been busy and we've had to suffer along with you.

We mentioned a while back that "he" is a hockey coach.  Well...we're happy to report that hockey is finally coming to a close for another season and ended on a great note.  Yay....more time for us to be posting here!

We've had some really warm weather here in Ontario....it's been an odd winter all around.  So what have we been enjoying? Digging.  Let's talk about the Scottie's need to dig.  Actually it's a "dog thing" in general but us Scotties we like to seek and destroy.  Keeping in mind there are two of us...so what one does...the other must follow.  Our peeps now have to re-sod their back yard....and the other day "he" laid big logs in our way of getting to where their garden normally goes.  Do you think "they're" trying to tell us something?  We take great pride in destroying the backyard.  There are random holes where we like to just dig.  It isn't always fun because we get carted off to the sink for a wash.  That mud really can pack in to our paws nicely.  :)

What have you all been up too??  Anyone getting out there and having a paw-dicure?

We've been tagged!

Good Morning Everyone,

Our buddies Sweet William & Stuart tagged us so here goes:

1) Describe yourself in 7 words: loyal, mischievous, lovable, irritating, curious, stubborn and territorial.

2) What keeps you up at night? These days....nothing!  We now sleep in separate crates and we're good at sleeping through the night.  But if anything bugs us....it's the thought of the other stealing our favorite toy....or noises outside.

3) Who would you like to be? Hmmm....a king and queen....oh wait we already strive for those titles :)

4) What are you wearing now? Nothing but a collar and a smile :)

5) What scares you? We are funny creatures.  Angus used to be afraid of paper towel rolls and Molly has never been scared of anything.  

6) What's the best and worst things about Blogging? We'd say the worst thing is trying to remember to blog.  Our peeps are busy with lots of stuff so they aren't always able to get on the computer.  The best part is getting to know all of you. We love to read all about our blogging friends!

7) What's the last Blog you visited? Douglas...and we feel sorry for his tummy problems.

8) What's one thing you would change about yourself? For Molly she would change the fact that she is very territorial at times.  She's not like normal dogs....she marches to the beat of her own tune.  Angus likes to show off...he needs to share more of his things with me.  He always steals what I'm playing with and makes a pile of toys around himself.  Plus this weekend he's destroyed 3 of our toys!

9) Slankets? No....none for us.

10) Tell us something about the person who tagged you. We were tagged by Sweet William The Scott & Stuart of The Scottie Chronicles.  Sweet William seems like such a sweet puppy dog and we like reading about what he's up to.  His glasses make him look cool :)  As for Stuart....what can we say....the guy's awesome with a capital 'A'.  I mean...it's not often you see a Scottie with so much white....we think it makes him stand out more...a bit more refined if you will.  Our peeps love reading about him and his trips around the world....BOL.  His face is everywhere....we hope to be popular like him one day :)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hi Everyone!  Well "they" finally believe I look like a Scottie now :)  Went for my first haircut yesterday and it was not pleasant.  I was so disgusted with "him" that I wouldn't even look at "him" when it was time to go or on the drive home.  Imagine....I got left there, then shaved but you can't tame this girl.  My backside leaves something to be desired....but I guess I'll have to get used to it eventually.  Next time Angus will come with me.  I didn't make a peep either....not like the whiner who cried the whole time he was there.

So now it's funny cuz they sometimes can't tell Angus and me apart.  I must say, I feel like I lost 5 lbs. now that the hair is gone and I can see properly.

Hope you are all enjoying the day so far :)
