It's here! It's here! Our new Lilly and Abbie dogbed has arrived!
Hey, every buddy! It's me, Patches! We told you, way back in January, that we had won a Lilly and Abbie custom dog bed! Well, it arrived late yesterday afternoon! We are soooooo excited!
We got to pick our own 3 fabrics for the WASHABLE cover! Okay, our mom picked them, but we think she did a great job!
As soon as our mom put the cover on, she put the new bed on the living room floor. We are going to leave it there until Mom figures out which one of us is going to "claim" it. So far, I'm in the lead!
Penny has sniffed it, but she hasn't gotten on it yet. That COULD be because I chase her away if she gets too close! Yeah, I'm the alpha! So Penny can't get on the bed until I say so!
This bed is soooooo cool! It is plenty big enough for either one of us (mainly ME) and it sure is comfy!
We would like to thank Neil, Nigel, Sola, Truffles and everyone over at Life With Dogs for the opportunity to enter this cool contest! We are very LUCKY to have won this! (We don't often win ANYthing, especially anything as great as THIS!
If you would like to buy a dog bed of your very own, head on over to: http://www.lillyandabbiedogbeds.com They have a really great selection of fabrics and the quality of the beds can't be beat! The workmanship is amazing! (Sorry, stupid Vista won't let us put in a link).
Now, on to other stuffs. This has been a pretty hard month on all of us. On Feb. 12, we made it through a whole year since our dad passed away and then on the 21st, it was one year since Poppy went to the Rainbow Bridge! Yes, we know they are together, but that doesn't make it any easier for US! We still miss them both a LOT! Our mom says she has made it through her year of "firsts" (first birthday, first anniversary, first EVERYTHING!) She's pretty proud of the way she has handled everything and would like to thank every doggie and every hooman who prayed for us. We KNOW that's why we have come as far as we have!
Uh oh! I hear Penny moving around in the living room while I'm in here barking instructions on what to type to Mom! Gotta go chase her off MY new bed!
Aire-hugs,
Patches & Penny

That bed is big and it looks soft. It must be comfy too...you're so lucky.
It must be hard for your Mom to have gone through so much. Please know that we have you in our thoughts.
That is a seriously large and snuggly bed. Well done for winning it.

That's a very cool -- and large -- bed. Have you thought of sharing? We sometimes do -- but not at the same time.
We know you two have given your mom lots of love and help during this first year of missing your dad and Poppy. It's been tough on all of you,and you've held together.
Wirey love!!!

Great Bed! If it causes problems in your house -you could send it to us! Both of us would fit on it and there would be no fighting (honest!)
I find a good way to claim a bed is to pee on it - just a suggestion ;-)

Great bed!!!
Hey there, Aire-girls! You're looking as great as ever! Sorry we haven't been around in a while, but we've been thinking of you. Glad you and your mom managed the year okay; we're sure it musta been almost impossible. But we know you have special angels watching over you. They must've had a hand (and paw) in your winning that awesome bed! :)
Be well, have fun!

That bedcover made me a little dizzy, but since your eyes will be shut whenever you are on it, no worries, right? I am sending all my relentlessly huge hugs and kisses because I know that this year has been hard on your mom's mentals. Just keep being yourselves and making her smile.
Slobbers,
Mango

Congrats on winning the bed! I saw your comments on Life With Dogs Facebook site. May your dogs enjoy it, it looks pretty comfy!
What a bed!! Sleep well and congratulations!
Our calendar says that today is your birthday, Penny! Happy 12th birthday to you! We hope that you and Patches get cake and ice cream!
Love ya lots
Maggie and Mitch
We've been thinkin' aboutcha ... remembering about all your firsts. We remember, 'cause it was in February that Moma lost her Molly ... and she paid closer attention to other losses that month. Anyhow. We're super proud that you've made it through this year ... and that you are the FIRST to have a LIllie and Abbie dogbed AND that we are among the FIRST to wish Penny a happy birthday! Right????
Happy days. Happier days!
Jake and Fergi
Your new bed is spectacular!! You guys are very lucky! And we are giving your Mom extra hugs and kisses for her year of firsts and for doing so well with it... as well as one can do..Love A+A
That new bed looks awesome and I am sure there's more than enough room for two beautiful Aire-girls! You girls are really lucky to have won it.. maybe it's a sign that more good things are on the way :)
Sorry that we are late, but please give your mommy a big hug and kiss from us. I know February must've been a really tough month for her since she lost two of her nearest and dearest in this month. Sending all you girls lots of love..
hope you've been enjoying that bad. It's so big and pretty!! I imagine the past year has been hard on you all. Paws crossed this next year is easier.
Love,
Rudy
Wow, that bed looks big enough for everybody!
