Photo Fun

Hi Gang!

Daisy & Holly here.

You know I told you that Old Two Legs wanted to get a picture of us looking all lovely and clean and fluffy and cute?

Well it didn't work out for OTL. He tried several things to tempt us into posing for him but Holly and I just weren't ready to have our photograph taken.

If you're not in the mood, then you are just NOT IN THE MOOD!!!

Gissa bit of Sausage
OTL tried tempting us with bits of our sausage, specially made for Doggies, we LOVE it and of course, we didn't sit still for a moment.

Holly blows a Raspberry for a bit of  Sausage
As soon as Holly was in position I would jump up and then when I was sitting down Holly would be trying to wrestle a bit of sausage from OTLs hand!

 Bet you're hiding the sausage!
Poor old OTL, in the end he gave up and stayed in his office all evening, showing off!

What do they say, Never work with Animals?

Too Right!

We got the better of OTL this time! 1 - 0 to Puppy Power!

See you tomorrow,

Daisy & Holly

Holly's new coat

A big hello to you all,

Daisy & Holly here.

After we've had our hair cut it seems a little colder around the tail and Old Two Legs said we could put our coat on if we felt cold. It was then that he realised that Holly didn't have a coat. So, off we went in the car up to the Doggy Shop where I got my coat.

Holly was beside herself in there, just like me she just loves the smells in that place. If you ignore the rabbit stuff and the hamster smells and the lizard, the rest is all Doggy smells, wonderful!

Holly got measured and fitted with a warm coat, she looked 'The Business', we were almost looking forward to the cold weather, just so we can wear our coats!

The Missus says it is going to get cold this weekend, so we'll be ok!!

I was watching the TV last night and one of those adverts came on showing Three camels, with men riding on their backs, OTL said it was about a thing called a SatNav. 

OK, now we have horses, camels, carpenters, pubs and SatNav's, Christmas Presents and Compost Bins.

I'm getting seriously confused here!

OTL wanted to take a picture of us looking all smart like after our haircut, but after a long day driving up to see Grandma, we all felt sort of ,well Tired, to be honest, totally Whacked Out!

So, instead of us all bright eyed and furry tailed and smiling for the camera. Here we are, cuddled up to OTL having a snooze after dinner!
Safe with OTL!

Maybe tomorrow with the photograph, after our mid morning snoozett!

Bye bye for now,

Daisy & Holly

Monday, Chilly Monday!

Hello to you all,

We've  had a funny day today, first of all we went off with Old Two Legs for a run around the fields, boy was it chilly! The ground was hard, but that made it easier to run on and Boy, did we run! It was super having someone to play chase with who runs as fast as I do. Old Two Legs gets a up a small run then gives up, puffing and wheezing. He really should get more exercise, more walkies with us!

A little later OTL took us out in the car, for what we thought, was going to be a long walk through the woods. Were we mistaken! We turned off towards the vets place and that had me worried for starters! OTL drove past the vets, Phew! but then he turned into the kennels next door! Shock!, Horror! He was going to sell us, to the Dogs Home, all because we had been naughty and woken him up too early!

We don't like this place!

In we went, not very happy puppies. I tried to tell him we were both sorry and we wouldn't do it again. He didn't listen, handed the lead over to the girls and left us!!!

Suddenly I remembered this place, we had not been here for such a long time, at least three months, we were going to get a Hair Cut and Wash Under the Tail!

That was OK, we knew he'd hadn't sold us, he'll be back in a couple of hours, and, we'd still have our tails!

You should've seen us, we had our claws done, hair cut shampooed and set, blow dried, brushed and pampered, our hair was trimmed in the important places. (Holly said it was called a ' Mohican'!) I said it was Drafty!

We even had a squirt of Doggy Deodorant that made us smell like The Missus when she goes out somewhere special!

Well, when OTL came to pick us up we were SO pleased to see him and we promised to be good girls for him and not wake him up too early and sit at the kerb and not bark at the postman and not scratch the door and not mug him for Shortbread and, well, I reckon that was enough to be getting on with!

When we got home,The Missus, went all Goo, Goo.

You know, Oh aren't they sweet, let me cuddle them. No Way, OTL had paid a fortune for this hair cut and we had promised to stay clean and tidy, until we went for a walk over the fields.

Can we go out now?

See you tomorrow, we're off to the woods!

Old Two Legs and Us on Sunday

Hello Again,

Daisy & Holly here!

We have had a lazy Sunday. Holly and I woke Old Two Legs up at six this morning, we decided that as it was Sunday, he could have a lay in!


OTL took us over the fields this morning, I showed Holly the new rat nests and the Rabbit Holes I've found since she was here last.


There were new smells for her as well. Then we had loads of running around the fields and didn't we get muddy!


During the morning Old Two Legs set up the Compost Bin behind the shed and took a picture of us sniffing around it so he can show The Missus on Christmas Morning just what she had got as a present.


I bet TM will be so pleased with the Compost Bin and the picture, especially as we are in the photo as well!
TM's Christmas Present!

We were wondering just how many other people would get a Compost Bin as a present.


Holly and I have been thinking about this Christmas Thing, and the Pub, Camels and stuff.
We can't make out what it's about at all. 

So, if anyone can tell us what is going on we'd be very pleased to hear from you!

Wild Wild Woods

Hello Again,

Daisy & Holly here!

On Friday when OTL came to pick us up, Holly and I gave him a BPW, (that's a Big Puppy Welcome).

We raced up to him and licked his ears, well, Holly had one ear and I had the other!

Soon we were off with OTL in the car, we left The Missus to guard Holly's house and look after the boys.

We were driving home, singing songs and woofing at the other drivers. Holly and I were also pulling faces and sticking our tongues out as well!

When we got home OTL let us out for a sniff around the garden and afterwards we settled down to mug Old Two Legs for little bits of his Short Bread, he has that with his whisky!
We woke up at five on Saturday morning and Holly wanted a wee, so we both woke OTL with a combined chorus of , 'We Want a WEEEEEE!!!!!!'

He was not a happy OTL that early in the morning! 

Later in the day we went out in the woods on an adventure with OTL and got so muddy that he had to spend half an hour toweling us down before we could get into the car!

A Little Muddy!
We played at Mountain Climbing, I was Hillary and Holly was Tenzing

Tenzing at the Top!

Holly showed me how she can climb trees. She said she learnt it by watching pussy cats when she chased them up trees! 
Pussy Cat Holly!

On the way home we stopped at a Garden Centre, there were loads of trees like the one we've got at home. Look! I said to Holly, we got one like that, but our one twinkles!

OTL took us in, perched on his shoulders, someone said that dogs weren't allowed but he said we weren't dogs, we were his Parrots and tried to get us to say 'Who's a Pretty Girl Then?'

We both said 'Woof', which was near enough for OTL!

He brought a plastic bucket thing he called a 'Compost Bin' and said it was going to be one of TM 'Christmas Presents'

What is this Christmas Present thing? Is it something to do with the camels in the pub?


Kissy Kissy

Holly, Holly, Holly

A Big Hello to you all,

What a day I've had!

I got up rather early today, well somewhere around five in the morning, I just could not sleep any more. I was excited and thinking about Holly and the fun we were going to have with Old Two Legs.

I just had to share it with The Missus, so I did my 'Wake Up' woof and then woofed some more to make sure she heard me.

The Missus did not seem so excited as me, even after I jumped up and gave her a lick on the ear and told her what Holly and I were going to do. She's not very imaginative first thing in the morning!

So, I dodged past her and rushed up stairs, jumped up onto OTL's bed and licked his ear and told him about my plans, he then told me about his plans which included taking my tail away, selling me to the Dogs Home and he said I would be kept on dry biscuits and water for the rest of my life!

He doesn't mean it really, and we had a cuddle before he went back to sleep again!

It wasn't long before OTL went off to see Grandma and TM and I went off to see Holly, well, as we got closer to her house I was getting SO excited, I recognised her street and house and was woofing and whining and jumping about trying to get out of the car before TM had stopped!

Looking for Holly


The car door opened and I rushed to her front door woofing and I could hear her woofing as well! The next couple of hours was a mixed up blur of Holly and me racing around the kitchen and garden, mud, fun and fur.

What a welcome!!!

We puppy's know how to have fun!

See you tomorrow,

Daisy & Holly

Cooking Daisy's Dinner

Hello There,

Daisy is back again!

I had a scare today, me and Old Two Legs were having a game of Tug with my knotted rope toy. He manages to get it off me sometimes and tiggles my tummy with it while I try to grab it, sometimes I roll over trying to get it, great fun and we laugh a lot doing it!

Well there we were playing and The Missus was doing some cooking, she left the pan on the cooker and came in to see what OTL and I doing because we were making such a noise! 

She stood there for a moment and then joined in the fun, a real three way rope Tug. After a while she went back to the kitchen, as she opened the door, smoke billowed out, she yelled FIRE!!! OTL jumped up and ran into the kitchen and closed the door.

Seems the chip pan got too hot! A close call says OTL, it seems that TM does this every so often!

Excitement over for the day, back to sleep and a think about this Twinkling Tree, Three Camels and Mr Snowy.

I think Mr Snowy may be related to the Snow Fairy but he is lasting much longer than the Snow Fairy, unless TM sets fire to him!!

Tomorrow I go to see Holly at her house and then OTL will pick us both up on his way back from Grandma's.

I am getting SO Excited!

It's a Good News Day!

Hello Everyone,

Good News!

I've just heard The Missus talking on the telephone and it looks like Holly will be over on Friday to stay for a few days.

Old Two Legs has booked us in for a 'Shampoo & Set' as he calls it, for next week.

Holly and I call it a 'Hair Cut & Wash under the Tail'!

When we come out we look really smart, for a short while, until we go for a run across the fields!

I really look forward to Holly visiting, we have such fun chasing each other around the house. OTL is always playing with us and taking us out for walks.

Maybe Holly knows something about the Twinkling Lights and Mr Snowy and horses and the camels, I must have a chat with her about this.

I've found out some more about the Tree with the Twinkling Lights, I think it is has something to do with a party.

You see, I have been watching TV again and I keep seeing these small stories, adverts I think they're called, where people are visiting each others houses, in the snow, with jingly music and the house has Twinkling Lights and there is a tree inside with Twinkling Lights.

So, I reckon it is a party tree that brings snow and people to your house for a party.

I wonder what would happen if you didn't have a tree, that would that mean you missed out on the snow and couldn't have a party? Mmm, doesn't sound right to me, no tree, no party?

These Two Legs are strange, funny, but, definitely strange!

See you tomorrow!

Daisy.

What is this all about?

Hello, a confused Daisy here,

I've been looking at this tree we got down stairs, the one with the twinkling lights and wonder why Old Two Legs and The Missus have put it up.

Even more, Mr Snowy has me thinking they've really lost it, I mean, Snowy doesn't even woof at the postman!

OTL left the TV on downstairs and someone was telling 'The Christmas Story' to the children. So, I sat in his chair and watched it. Well, it wasn't diner time yet.

That will teach me, I think I am even more confused now. They started off by telling a story that involved kings and some camels, and a moving star going across a sandy desert sky.

I suppose it was a bit like the time when me and OTL saw the International Space Station go across the sky as we went out for our late night walk on the beach. Although, I didn't follow it along the beach and I didn't see any camels!

Then it all got a bit mixed up because I was just starting my second sleep and they were talking about a carpenter on a horse and stopping at a pub for the night. It was the camel in the pub I could not understand, now, anyone knows you can only bring dogs into a pub, the camel has to stay in the stables with the horses. 

The reason horses aren't allowed in pubs, is because they take up too much room at the bar!

It was then that I fell asleep and dreamt that Holly and I were riding horses and chasing camels through the woods.

Maybe tomorrow I'll find out some more!


Bye for now,


Daisy

Sneaky or Wot?

Hello again,

Daisy here. 
You know, us Terriers can be very choosy about which command to obey. 

Such things as 'Walkies! or Daisy, Dinner!' well they get my full and undivided attention and I'm there like a shot.

Other times like when I hear  'come in or stop digging or put that down' well they're hardly worth turning around for.

I was out the front of the house and Old Two Legs was calling me to go indoors, I on the other hand had found a seriously interesting smell, no contest. OTL called again, no response, sniff, sniff!

Sorry, I'm deaf when sniffing!

Then The Missus called out   Holly, Holly, Holly!

Holly? Wot? Is she here?

I raced indoors expecting to see my sister waiting there. Nothing, then I searched all over the house for Holly, even in some of my secret places, I couldn't find her anywhere. 

It was then I realised that TM was just being sneaky!

That TM can be so cruel sometimes! 

Still, Holly is coming over next weekend, or so OTL says.

I can't wait!

Now about this tree thing with the twinkling lights, I'm still not sure what it is, but it looks pretty at night and if I look at it for too long, my eyes go all wobbly!

The lights! The Lights!
I'm going to do some serious listening to what OTL & TM are talking about, not that I'm going to obey them, it's just I want to find out what this tree and Mr Snowy are doing here in the house!

Bye Bye for now!

Daisy
