We Named More Koi

Hey Pals,
We finally have 4 koi that passed the quarantine stage and so Mama finally released them into our large ponds yesterday. So we picked 4 names from our list of pals that were waiting to have a koi named after them. So here are the four:
This is Koi Lorenza:
This is Koi Ruby:
This is Koi Ume Tyan:
This is Koi Stanley (in the center):
We still have more to name but Mama is waiting for them to grow bigger. Plus there are some koi babies in the big pond that are almost large enough to name now too.

Our weather has turned very hot & muggy again. We don't like it one bit. The water in our doggie pool doesn't even stay cool for us, it's almost like getting into hot bath water. Does someone want to trade 20 degrees of hot weather for 20 degrees of cool weather??? hehehehe. That would be just right, about 70 some degrees.

On Saturday, Mama & Papa took us to Dairy Queen for ice cream to help us cool off. Boy was that good. Sorry no pictures though. Mama can't take pictures while she's feeding us & herself at the same time. Of course we finish way before her & then we beg for some of her ice cream. Snickers will lick the side of Mama's container hoping Mama will give in, but nope, she didn't. Oh and for the record, Gus, Snickers finished her ice cream before me Butchy AGAIN!!!

We hope everyone has a great week!
Wirey Hugs!

We heard from Liberty!

Hey Pals,
Just wanted to give you an update. We know some of you were wondering where Liberty is & how she is doing. Well Mama got a hold of her & her Mama and they are just fine. Liberty says her Mama's work is keeping her super busy & she just hasn't been able to help Liberty post. Liberty told us they will be back blogging soon & wanted to thank everyone for worrying about them.
Wirey Hugs!

MORE BIRFDAY FUN!

Hey Pals,
It's me Snickers again. Guess what? I have received more wonderful birfday cards & prezzies in the mail. I can hardly believe it. First this is my bootiful card from Precious:

Can you see the little lamb after my name? That is so cute cause my last name is Lamb, hehehe.
Thank you so very much Precious, this is a wonderful special card!!
Next I received a package from the greatest girl hamsterrier, GirlGirl!
Oh my gosh, look at this cute bear card....
Can you see the cute wire fox terrier dog?? Such a cute card!
Gee, I can't seem to get my snout down into the envelope far enough to grab out the contents...
Mama had to help me, tee hee! Hmmmmmm, this smells paw lickin' good....
Some yummylicious bacon treats just for me! Thanks again GirlGirl! You're the best little hamsterrier!!
Next I received a package from the one & only Miss Sunshade!
Oh boy, my snout fits into this envelope better...
Hehehehe, look at this funny fox terrier card....the dog is so cute....
Ooooooh, Miss Sunshade secretly told me to grab this next item & run with it so my Mama can't have it....
Ok I got it, better run....
Darn, Mama caught me. See the cute plush wire fox terrier doggy?? and the little wire fox terrier standing?? Well those are Mama's now. I thought they were for me??? But I get the yellow ring & bone, just like Miss Sunshade has. She told me that Butchy & I now belong to her famous Ring Club!
These kong toys are cool & they even float too. We tried them out in our doggie pool & they really do float!
Thank you so very much Miss Sunshade!!
A big thank you to everyone for all of the additional birfday wishes that I keep receiving. You pals are all awesome pawsome!!
Wirey Hugs!

BIG BIRFDAY BASH!!!

Hey Pals,
We had so much fun at my pawty that we don't know where to begin. First Mama took so many pictures, it took her all day yesterday just to go through them to pick the really good ones, hehehehe! I'll try not to make the post too long, but wanted to share the fun with you, especially since my boyfriend Gussie got to come here for my pawty!!!
First I'd like to show you the bootiful ecards I received:
This is from dear sweet Jackson...
This one is from the one & only bootiful Ruby....
And this is from my dear cousin Asta in New York.....
She was so sad that she couldn't attend my pawty so she made this cool picture of the four of us wires at the beach.
Thank you pals for the wonderful cards!!!!

Ok, we started the day waiting for my dear boyfriend Gussie to arrive with his hoomans. Both Butchy & I were wearing our tropical beachwear that Mama made just for us:

Oh my, I think I see the white Gussiemobile, I'm so excited.......
It is, it is, here is my hunk boyfriend Gussie....
Isn't he just to die for......
We still needed to wait for cousin Toto, Auntie C & Maranda to arrive for the pawty to start so we gave Gussie the tour of our land. We showed him all of our trails so he could check out all of the country smells & he even found a nice smelly spot to roll in, hehehehehe!
Here is Gussie checking out one of our ponds.... and the bullfrogs....
He liked it so much that he walked right in, wahahahahaah! We couldn't believe it. He wasn't even scared to walk into the deep water. We don't think his hoomans were too happy though, look at how dirty his legs are.....
But Mah, it was so fun....
Then guess what happened?? Hehehehe, Gussie had to get sprayed down with the hose to clean off his legs.
Ooooh, here comes cousin Toto, now we could start the pawty.

We decided to open our prezzies first, then do cake. So here goes:
This first prezzie is from our pal Huskee Boy.....
It even says it's for me & Butchy.... Oh our dawgness, bootiful collars with our names embroidered on them...
Sorry you can't see the card very well. We have another picture to post that shows 3 cards. It has a cute wire fox terrier on the front wearing a party hat!!
This is my bootiful collar...
This is Butchy's collar.....
Thank you again so much Huskee Boy!!!! The collars are awesome!!

Next I have a big package from Maggie & Mitch....
Mama had to help me open it, I couldn't get the tape off of it, hehehehe! Lookie, I hit the jackpot!
There is a pretty card & some awesome treats! Also one package is for Mama....
Maggie & Mitch's Mama made this bootiful wooden spoon of a Wire Fox Terrier for Mama.(stoopid us, at first glance we thought it was Winnie The Pooh, sowwieeee) Isn't it great?? She is very talented. Thank you again!!!
Here I've opened one of the prezzies, it's a cool pink princess chew toy & it even is scented with mint. Can you see my tongue?? I've tasted the mint & it's good!!! (I chewed on this toy for a long time last night!)
Here is my other prezzie, his name is SPIKE! He is a Quirkie & when you shake him he makes lots of funny noises. He is way cool!!
Thank you very much Maggie, Mitch & your Mama!!!

And here is my boy Gussie admiring me while I open prezzies.....isn't he so handsome??
Did I show you my cool birfday banner that Maranda made for me??? Check it out....
THANK YOU MARANDA!!!!
Next all of us dogs received prezzies from Maranda, Toto & Auntie C....
Hmmmm, what's in here??
Wowie, a pink WUBBA!!!!!! Thank You, Thank You!!!
Look, my Gussie loves to watch me open things.....
Isn't Gussie just a living doll????
Next Butchy opened his prezzie from Maranda:

He got a squeeky toy with basketballs....
Now Butchy said it's Gussie's turn...
Here's Gussie, he got a squeeky toy with his favorite, baseballs!!
Wanna play with me???
Here's my prezzies from Mama & Papa...
I got 3 new balls, a soccer ball with a handle so they can throw it far for me, a fleece ball & a squeeky baseball...
Next we had prezzies from Gussie, Muzzer & Gussie's Papa:
I let Butchy go first....
Oh boy, a squeeky Ladybug, I luv it!!!
And some goodies from Trader Joes....
Now it was my turn.... Boy, this sack is bigger than me....
Lookie, a pink purse toy, biscuits, a pretty card.....
And some chicken breast strips, my favorite!!
Thank you so very much Gus, Muzzer & Gussie's Papa!!!!!!
Here is a better picture of my toys:
My pink purse from Gussie has a noise box inside & when I push it Gussie says 'I LOVE YOU'!!!!! So I push it all of the time, hehehehehe!
Here is a picture of my pretty cards too....
Now it's CAKE TIME!!! We had already eaten frosty paws earlier in the pawty. Mama made this bootiful bone shaped cake for me! Can you see me licking my chops???
Time to dive in.....
Mmmmmm, the peanut butter frosting sure sticks to the roof of my mouth!!
It sticks to mine too.....
Cousin Toto says: Lip smackin' good!!!
Now we had romping time again. We walked all over outside. Too bad I ate so much birfday cake though, I got a tummy ache & lost my cookies.
Now it was time for the beach pawty. Since I didn't feel good, I didn't even take a dip into the pool. I just watched the boys play....
Throw me a toy....
Ok, my turn...
I got it!!
Hey Snickers, don't I look like a cool beach dude???
Mama made up this picture with the three of us together:

Well, after the pool pawty, it was time for Gussie to leave, sigh..... We didn't want him to go. We were so happy we got to meet Gussie & his parents. We all had such a wonderful time. This was my bestest birfday ever!!!!!
Luv & Wirey Hugs!
Snickers......missing Gussie
