So a BIG  BIG thank you to Sarge-a-licious for this prize!! Here is what Lucy Lu will recieve through the post:

It's a raccoon and a skunk which both have two squeakers in! I seriously couldn't believe it!!

Look at Lucy Lu's happy face:

I'm sure she is going to be super duper excited when she sees what Sarge-a-licious has sent for her! She just LOVES squeaky toys!! And once again, for Sarge-a-licious:

THANK YOU!!! :) 

An Update on Dusty

 If you havn't already read it, please take a look at my competition post here.

We got an email from the people who are keeping Dusty while we are away (Jock and Lucy stayed home to have a break) and they said he was fine! They also mentioned he was a 'right character'. I'm hoping that means that he's enjoying himself! :P
They also sent some pictures of him with the dogs he's staying with. They said he's loving a certain dog called Ava (who looks like a maltese cross). And by the looks of things, Dusty's got a girlfriend!

Dusty with Ava. Isn't she just the sweetest thing?

 Destroying boots and posing for the camera. Looks no different to what he is at home!

 Except for being CALM...

 Mr. Serious.

 And the king of the castle, aka, Mr. Bossy Pants. :P
The dog at the back is the family's dog, Mitsy.

Looks like he's having a ball! I'm sure he'll be sad when Ava leaves because they said that they love to run around the house together chasing each other.
I wonder if Ava is local.... ;)
Anyway, it was really reassuring to see Dusty is getting along fine with the other dogs there. I hope he doesn't get too attached to the place!

Dusty's Celebration Competition

To celebrate Dusty's 1st birthday, on the 27th July, I have decided to do a competition! To enter, do a blog post with your favourite picture of your doggie (or whatever else) included. The competition is based on this picture as the winner will recieve an original hand drawn picture of your entry! It will either be in graphite or pastel, whatever the winner chooses. Entries must be in by the 27th June as I will post a page with all the entries for people to vote for their favourite. Of course, I will put in my own vote for this competition if there is a tie. All votes must be in by the 25th July (we can stretch the rules a bit for time zone convenience) and will be counted by the 27th July (Dusty's birthday) and the winner will be announced on that date!

Here are the rules:

You can enter as many or as little times as you like! Just make sure you comment on the page 'Dusty's Celebration Competition' with a link to your post for each entry you do.

In your post, add a link to my page so that I can get even more entries! This way, the competition will be even more exciting!
The original drawing will be posted to the winner, but a copy will be posted on this blog. 

So that's it for this post. If you have any more questions on the competition, feel free to ask them in the comments. Make sure you comment on the page 'Dusty's Celebration Competition' to give me the link to your post where you entered!

Good luck everyone!!!

Sarge's Nickname Game

Hey all!
I found Sarge's blog the other day, and discovered that he'd just started a game! It's called the Nickname Game (in case you hadn't already picked that) and all you have to do is put up a list of all the nicknames you can think of for your dog or pet. Here's the link to his post if you're interested: http://sargespeaksout.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/nickname-game-entry.html
Once I have put up all the names I can think of for Jock, Lucy and Dusty, you guys all have to vote for your favourites in each list! Then, once all the votes have been added up, I will see which one has the most votes and then you have to call them that name for a week! But I think I'll start that week once I get back from holiday as there will be no point to the week while I'm away as I'm not even posting! :P

So, here goes!

Jock:

Jocka Locka Doo Da

Jockie

Jockie Poo

Jockie Shmocky

Jockie Wockie

Cheeky Doggie

Lucy:

Lucy Boosy

Boosy Boo

Flubby Girl

Smooge-a-licious Boy

Squeaky Deaky

Little Froggie
Schnooby-Schnoob-Schnoobs
Little Munchkin
Terriorist

Schnuggle Pops

Well, that's all I can think of! Not as many as some, I know, but I guess we stick to their names quite often. But I guess Dusty's gathered quite a few names for being with us for such a short time!
So, don't forget to vote for your favourite name in each list!

My Other Blog

I just thought I might tell all you guys that I'm on holiday (again!) at the moment. I am going to be blogging about it on my other blog: http://adifferentangleoftheworld.blogspot.com/ (or you can click the link on my pages bar underneath the header).
So I'm sorry but I won't be blogging on this blog for quite a few weeks (6 1/2 actually... :P).
I might post about how much I miss them and want them with me, but that's about it. 
So, if you still want updates, head on over to my other blog so you don't miss anything about my trip! Bye!

Silly Saturday

You have probably noticed the new header. As I was looking back on the daily pictures, I saw it and thought it would go well with the caption 'three lots of four-legged craziness'. Yep, they are definately BONKERS. Especially in that photo. lol.

 Here's some others from that same... crazy... spell.

NO DOGS WERE HARMED IN THE DURATION OF THIS CRAZINESS.

Dogs? What dogs? All I see are mini-bears!

Lucy's Sleeping.... Shhh...

This is an old video of Lucy with a special voice over from a family member... Very special...
Listen very carefully....

The Word of Dusty: Freedom

Hello, how is all my doggie friends feelin on today? I just thort I would take a sniffie at bloggie land here!
I like to apologise before my talks start about me grammer. I working on it and it's gooder already! Made sure I had it alot gooder before writing this. ;)
Anyway I was had a normal time a few days before now and then something more than good happened.  It was supa gooder than my normal good things. Way gooder. So much more gooder that I was so much more happied.  :)
Ok you probably want to no what was so good that it was gooder than all other things? So here it is in a berry shell: I have a verried good space to run like a wild puppy. Because I am a wild puppy! :D
You no that wirey stuff that was dragged along the white posts? Well that's been dragged into a biiiiiig squarey shapey thingy and now... I CAN'T ESCAPE!!! :D You are probably also wants to no why I is happy about this? Yes? No? I'm just guessin you said yes, because I'm gonna tell ya! Now I can be let run freeeeeeely during the light time of daytime. Yippeeeeeeee!!! :D Soooooo no one has to waching me! Eva! But sometimes if a car wants to see mee i get tieded up on me wire that is mine all mine so I cant get squishied under the big black rolly thingimabobbies that are really really scary but really really fun to bark at toooo. 
Anywayz I has alsoo got a widdle pooly wooly to paddle waddle in if i is wanting too. I think it's rilly good if its reeaaally hot in the air around 30 dogreeees or more and then I can just walk in and there it is, I'm cooler again!!! Even more cold if I splash lots and lots so that I get my bellies all wet and nice. :)

 But gettin in is always the bestest part of it :P

 And I play ballie loads too. Thats how I got used to gettin in and out by meself. I just ran after the ballie wallie! I still splashie lots too as I get the ballie wallie.

So pretty much I'm a free doggie in a free garden with free rules and am allowedied to run arounded as I please! 


Yaps and kisses,
Dusty Wusty Wooooo :P

He's 10!

Well today's the day of his tenth birthday. He's still young at heart, so don't be fooled by a grey muzzle!

Jock Pastel Pencils

This is a drawing for my neighbours. I hope you really like it!
I'll try and get a scan of it soon so that you can see it a bit better.

More Continuous Shots

I really love this feature and I was playing around with it a bit. I changed the settings to 11fps (frames per second) and 32 shots each time. It was so fast and I got loads of awesome ones! If you scroll down quickly, it should look like a movie.
Maybe you could click on the first picture so you can see them bigger (if you want to) and then you can see the detail better.
 I managed to get the best of Jock doing his thing.

 And the best of Dusty and Lucy doing their thing...

Terriorist or what!

And I also got a mini battle for the ball of wonder!

I think the continuous function is pretty awesome.
