This Week's Garden Update

Hello Everydoggy,

I'm back from my closet hiding place. Hopefully, there will be no storms tonight.

Mom was out watering the garden earlier and picked some things for us to check out.

Here's Canyon checking out the zucchini Mom told me she would grill for us...

Sky's got the tomatoes and cucumbers approved. Yes, those are yellow tomatoes. Mom thought she would try something new. She told me they are very yummy...

Canyon's checking out Dad's hot peppers. These are going to go in his jar of "clear your nose out" hot stuff...

Here we are impatiently waiting for our grilled zucchini. We got the idea from the Army of Four and asked her if we could try it.

I made Sky try it first...his assessment was "yummy"...

Canyon was next...he said "yummy" too, neither of them dropped over in agony so I figured the zucchini was safe...

Here I am about to try it....it was yummy...

Sky loved it so much he wanted more...Mom likes giving him treats because he takes them like such a gentledog...

I hope everydoggy gets some nice special treats tonight. Especially, the blogathon doggies.....like Meeshka and Steve and Kat. They need to keep their enegy up to last through the night.

Woo woo, Kelsey Ann

Hiding

Sorry Everydoggy,

There will be no post tonight. I spent the evening in the closet due to the storms with the small "s". They were really scarying me. I'm glad mom remembered I needed to go to the closet to be safe.

Woo woo, Kelsey Ann

Tag from Sashaville

Hi Everydoggy,

Sasha tagged us to answer some questions about ourselves.

Where is your favorite place to sleep??
Kelsey Ann- in the closet
Sky- in my bed
Canyon- in the biped's bed on the woman's feet (wish they let me sleep in little biped's room)
Is there a specific trick your humans make you do to get treats??
Kapp pack- no, not really, just look cute. Bonus when little biped asks to give us treats for no reason.
If you could spend an entire day doing anything at all with anyone what would you do and with whom??
Kelsey Ann- spend the day sleeping with a side trip to McDonald's for french fries
Sky- one on one time with the human woman and a car ride to anywhere, hopefully followed by a walk.
Canyon- spend the day playing with my little biped with breaks for a nap
What is your favorite toy??
Kelsey- I don't DO toys.....
Sky- a yellow stuffie that looks like a banana
Canyon- the rope bone that's downstairs and all bones
If you could change one thing in your life. What would you change??
Kelsey- Canyon would NOT wait at the top of the steps to jump on me on my way up!
Sky- I could run free like the wind (Mom sidenote:that ain't happening buddy!)
Canyon- I would be completely trusted and not have to be sent to my crate everyday while the humans are away.

We tag Echo, Steve and Kat, and the Army of Four.

The Kapp Pack

The Polls are Closed

Well, we had a close vote this week, but I am excited to announce the stuffies won the vote! They are my personal favorite as long as they are orange or yellow. It's so cool we had so many votes this week. Our new poll will be to find out what you favorite thing to do is. Remember you can vote for more than one thing, especially if you have more than one dog to vote for. Stay tuned for the results next Wednesday!

Til Later, Sky

Our Garden Update

As I told you yesterday, Mom took me out to help inspect the garden. Mom told me she's growing tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, watermelon, pumpkins, cucumbers and eggplant.

Mom says these tomatoes are almost ready to pick!
The peppers still need to grow a little
The zucchini is growing really well...the leaves are all fuzzy

I'm super excited about having 500 visitors to my blog. When Guiness and Shiloh reached 500 they made a wish list on what they would want 500 of.

Here's our list of what our pack wants:

Me (Kelsey Ann) -$500 in pledges for the Hike N' Howl (I really want to win the treats!)

Sky - 500 orange squeakies
Canyon - 500 kisses from the little biped
Mom - 500 tomatoes from her garden
Dad - 500 new books (he read a lot on airplanes on his business trips)
Little Biped - 500 new toys (like she doesn't have too many already)

I also need to give a really big shout out to my MaPaw buddy, Echo. It's his birthday today. Happy Birthday, Merlin's Echo from the Kapp Pack!

Woo woo, Kelsey Ann
(remember to get your vote in for favorite toy. Poll closes tomorrow night!)

Lab that Doesn't Swim???

Ok, so the annoying one (Canyon) got to go outside with the bipeds yesterday. The little biped was going in her pool. They thought Canyon would like to try swimming, turns out this lab mix doesn't like the water. When I have more time another day I will compare his husky and lab traits. The little biped even tried to give him a pseudo bath (no soap involved). Glad it was not me....haroooo!

Canyon after Mom put him in the pool (lasted 5 seconds)

Here's the bath sequence......


OOOOO...a huge water bowl!

Good riddens, peace and quiet! They left me inside to sleep...or so they thought. Who could have slept with the screaming Sky was doing. Sheesh!!!! Now that was obnoxious. He was SSSSOOOOO upset he did not get to go outside. The really stupid part of his hissy fit was that he HATES to swim. I guess he forgot.

Sky watching Canyon be tortured!

So after dinner, Mom took Sky out for some special time to himself in the yard...and guess what? Canyon wouldn't shut-up because Sky was outside and he wasn't. I can't win! Maybe I should give them away like Meeshka tried to give away the gimpy mutatoe for a blogathon prize.



To make it up to me Mom let me go out and check the garden for her.....I will tell you more about that tomorrow.

Pack Restored

Well, Mom is so proud of herself. She keeps telling everyone, "I did not fail transport again." I, for one, am glad she didn't fail. Training a puppy is hard work and I like to relax and snooze a lot. We all said our goodbyes this morning.

Bye, Bye Rocky

Mom, Dad, and the toddling biped took Rocky to meet up with the rest of the MaPaw family. They were at a Meet and Greet at the Graeme Historical Site in Horsham, Pennsylvania. The park was having a Celtic Festival. Mom said there were lots of guys walking around in skirts called kilts. Humans are so strange.

These sure are strange

Rocky got to meet Ma and Pa and some of MaPaw's voluteers. There were a few of MaPaw's alumni doggies and more importantly there were foster doggies there showing off their best qualities. Mom told me she was so excited to see Maximus again. For those doggies that didn't know, we were Maximus's first foster home....we were the ones who helped him recover from his surgery. I promise that we didn't laugh at him when he had to wear one of those stupid lampshade thingys on his head!

The doggy sitting is Maximus and the one in front is Elvis, an alumni MaPaw doggy.

That's Max again with Princess on the left and Misty II on the right. Magnum's Dad is on the right.

Goodbye for today, Bye Mr. Max

Mom told me she also got to see some of the people from the 2 other rescues joinging MaPaw for the Hike N' Howl, Delaware Valley Siberian Husky Rescue and Harnessed to Hope Northern Breed Rescue. Don't forget to make a pledge to sponsor me....the doggy with the biggest amount get some kind of special treat.

Puppy Video!

Here's some video of Rocky that Mom took last night. I've been too busy playing with the puppy and not much time for blogging. I'll have more to tell tomorrow when Mom and Dad tell me all about the MaPaw Meet and Greet tomorrow.


Woo woo, Kelsey Ann

Announcing......ROCKY!

Ok, so I told you I heard Mom talking about a puppy coming for a visit. Well, Mom and the toddling biped left for a while today and yes, you guessed it, came back with a Siberian Husky puppy. He has a striking resemblance to Dave of the Army of Four and Harley of Cybersibes. I put together a slideshow for everyone to see this 12-week-old little cutie!

Things have sure been interesting around here. I am taking his under my wing and teaching him just like a mother would do. Sky is being Mr. Cranky Pants, not sure if he's worried about his status as second in command or if he is mad Canyon is playing with Rocky and not him. Canyon is loving having somebody younger than him to pick on.

Mr. Cranky Pants

All the toddling biped want to do is give his hugs and kisses.On Saturday morning my mom, dad and little biped will be taking Rocky to a MaPaw Meet and Greet and from there he will go onto his foster home. And guess what? Rocky is going to the same foster home Rocky and Buck are, isn't that cool? This will only happen if mom keeps saying......I will not flunk transport....I will not flunk transport.

Now if he would just stay out of my food dish!!!!!

Woo woo,
Kelsey Ann

The results are in.....

Thank you to to all the doggies who took part in our poll this week. The most popular doggy movie was Snow Dogs with 52% of the votes. I think this is a great movie for us all to sit down and watch this week. We can visualize and be one with the snow.....who knows maybe it will make it seem cooler. Thank dogness for air conditioning! Check out this weeks brand new poll!

Inside scooper: I overheard mom talking with Ma (from MaPaw) it sounds like there will be a puppy coming to visit us for a few days. He's a foster dog in tramsport. Mom keeps saying over and over "I will not flunk transport, I will not flunk transport". I believe she's refering to the fact that the annoying one (Canyon) was a transport failure. Obviously he never left our house. I think mom said she and the toddling biped are picking up the furball tomorrow. Won't dad be surprised when he gets back from his business trip? Maybe he will think mom shrank Sky (i heard the little pup is black and white too). Now that would be a funny sight.....Honey I Shrunk the Dog.....hehehehe.....I wonder if Amber will think my joke is funny?
