Pooches & A Few Hoomans On The Folks' Trip Back East

This top photo was taken at a rest stop in New York state. So, why is Mommy looking so happy that pets are prohibited?? We don't get it. She says she wanted to show us that we would have felt that we were being persecuted if we went with them. Hmmmmm.

This Boxer's name is Layla. Her mama owns a really cool gift shop that is housed in some refurbished railroad cabooses and her Grandpa was Sullivan County's veterinarian. The folks met her and the next 2 pooches while at a craft show in Pennsylvania.

This boxer is Laila Ali. Ohhhhhhhh. Now we get it! Boxer ~ boxer.This fellows name is Vedder.

This floofy girl's mama said she doesn't like other dogs. Can't understand that.

Now here are the Golden Retriever pups we told you about. They were almost 6 weeks old and lived with their mama inside cousin Jan & Mark's home in Massachusetts. Looks like they are practicing fetching the newspaper at a very young age!

These two little GoldenBoys were the only ones in their litter. Wish we could have met them.

The (lady) hoomans look funny in this picture, but we wanted to show you the beautiful GoldenGirls. Mommy says they were merely laughing, and no alcohol was involved!

This is cousin Samia and Clayton with tri-ped pooch,Sadie, & one-eyed Schnauzer, Bradley. They both belong to Uncle Wayne. He rescued Sadie from horrible abuse.

This is Mommy with Sadie. She is part Pit, part Lab. (Sadie, not Mom.BOL.)

The folks stopped here in MA to get some pressies for us. Look at all that good dog food!!

This ad made Mommy chuckle. Does this look like Twinkie??

This is El Gato, sissy's Chartreux cat. Mommy visited him in Seattle on her way home. He is very afraid of dogs, so we have never met him. He also doesn't travel well.

Well, that's all the animal photos that the folks took on their trip. Daddy is back down in Phoenix in the heat (109 degrees F. yesterday) working and we are taking care of Mom here in the cool mountains of N.Idaho. Have had a fire in the fireplace all day! Sorry Pop. Miss you.

We're Baaaaack ~ An Explanation!

Here we are living it up before being sent to End of Summer Camp.

Getting re-acquainted with Auntie Kate.

Kisses for Auntie Kate! Remember me from obedience class??

Bye-bye Mommy. Auntie has everything under control.

Here's a view of where we got to go for walks.


So sorry we’ve been gone so long. Our mommy & daddy went on a trip back east so we went to “end of summer camp” at Happy Tails Bed & Biscuit. We had a great time, because Auntie Kate (the proprietor) took us on walks 4 times a day and has a fun play yard for us to play in & get nice and dirty in! Here are a few pictures of when Mommy left us off for our 10 night stay. That hooman with us is Auntie Kate. A side note here: Auntie hand fed Hootie the first night because he wouldn’t eat his food from a bowl. Now that is service!

When we got home we were so cruddy that Mom sent us out to get professionally bathed the next day!! All that lovely smell that we had acquired went down the drain. Phooey! At least now we are once again allowed up on the folks bed. BOL.

The folks took some photos while on their trip to Boston. Visited relatives in Massachusetts (with baby Golden Retrievers!) and Pennsylvania (with a 3legged Pit/Lab) so we’ll post them a little later. For now, it’s all BabyRocketDog & Hootie!! The top photo is us just before we left for Happy Tails.
