Sheer Determination

Hi everydog, (and human). It's Oakley here, the other night I found my toy monkey. He was already missing his leg and tail from other adventures and I thought it would be cool if he had no legs at all.

So I yanked.

And I pulled. (Note: If a human holds one end while you pull it's a little easier)

I took him up to the bed and chewed a bit, your slobber is essential in wearing stuffies down.

I kept at it for what seemed like hours.

Almost there I can hear it tearing.

Finally! I got the darn thing off.

Yummmm tastes like chicken. BOL.

Sweet sweet victory.

Hope everyone is having a great week.

The Only Bright Side-

The Yankees won the World Series, any other season my mom would be pretty bitter about this but this season she says there's a bright side. This guy....

he is Nick Swisher and he plays right field for the Yankees. He is the person mom named me after.

He started his career with my favorite team the Oakland A's, then was traded to the Chicago White Sox and then to NY. It was a sad day in my house when that happened. No matter our feelings against the Yankees we think Swisher is a great guy and a good ballplayer so the only bright side in the Yankee victory for us is that Nick is a champion.

This is a picture with me and moms Swisher shirts. She doesn't own his Yankee one though she thinks it would make her skin melt off. (She's a bit dramatic) bol. Until next season baseball fans!

Happy Howl-o-ween!

We would like to wish everydog and human a Happy Howl-o-ween. Can you tell what our costumes are?

Oakley is a prisoner. He's been naughty one too many times we guess.

Swisher is a doctor, he has to do surgery on all the stuffies that Oakley destroys. Mom also says he needs to make the big bucks to get his brother out on bail. BOL.

Oakley is not big on wearing the hat.

Someone get me outta here. I'll be good I promise.

Paging Dr. Swishie!

We hope everydoggy has a good and safe Howl-o-ween and gets yummy treats.

Wordless Wednesday - Skeleton Edition

Pumpkins!

It's that time of year, Pumpkin time.....mmmm pie! Unfortunately this post isn't about pie though, it's about Halloween decorations. We don't understand humans and this whole pumpkin business but Mom seems to like it. Her and our Aunt V went and got some pumpkins, but we had to stay home. Mom said she wanted to take us but the pumpkin place had a sign that said no pets...how rude! Mom bought 3 pumpkins to decorate. She took the easy way out and got these things called 'Pumpkin Push-ins' because she suc...errr..isn't very good at carving.

These our Mom's pumpkins

After Mom finished her pumpkins she tried to get us to pose with them, but that was soooo not working out. This is us sort of posing with the weird looking pumpkins.

So where as our mom is not very creative our aunt V did a really good job with her pumpkin. She also showed her love for us doggies by putting a paw as one of the pumpkin's eyes.

What do you dogs think?

We think she did a good job, it is on our doorstep by moms pumpkins and we like to lick them and keep them clean, and pretend we are eating pumpkin pie.

On an un-pumpkin related note now that the World Series teams are set we had to find mom's Phillies hat. Go Phillies!

Wishin' everyone a great week.

One dog filled weekend

Mom woke us up bright and early Saturday morning, she had our sleeping bags and our backpack packed up. We had no idea where we were going. She said she was going to see the dogs play. What? Not us dogs....these dogs...

She went and saw the Fresno State Bulldogs play the San Jose Spartans. Fresno won 41-21!! Mom was happy and so were we.

Did we get to go to the game? NO! But we got to stay with our Grandma and Grandpa. They live near Fresno, we like to go there because besides us being spoiled Grandma's boys there are two more dogs to play with!

They are Penny (in the light blue) and Diamond (in the pink). They are Grandma's dogs and Swisher's Pug Mom and Pug Sister. In our family Grandma started the Pug craze. Grandpa got her Penny after Mom went away to college. A few years later Mom wanted her to have puppies so Mom could have a Pug too and that's where Swisher came from.

We have a great time there, we just play and play and play!

Mom went to visit some other dogs too but we didn't get to go there either. Our great-grandma has German Shepherds and her dog Adrienne just had puppies. 13 puppies! Can you imagine?!? One didn't survive but there are still 12 healthy little ones!

That's all for now, we hope everyone has a great week.
