Merry Christmas to everydoggie and their peoples! (Sorry, stupid internet explorer won't let us upload any pictures!) Aire-hugs, Patches

Warning! This post is NOT about ME!

We have an intruder in our house! More specifically...in MY bed! Her name is Molleigh and she moves so fast that MY mom can't get a picture of her being still!

She came to visit us last Wednesday and we 3 Aire-kids have not been snooter to snooter with her YET! Oh, Mom says there is no YET! We will NEVER come that close to her without the crate between us! Humpffffffffffftttt! We just want a little taste...I mean SNIFF!

When it's time for her to go outside, my mom takes her out the FRONT door after herding all of US into the BACK yard! So not fair...we are NEVER allowed to go out front! Anyway, my mom has become the crazy neighborhood dog lady again! Only THIS time, the doggie is staying with US! We think my mom has broken her foot again. This morning, she dropped an almost 3 pound bronze Easter bunny on her foot! It bounced and put a big knot and purple spot on her other leg and as the day has gone on, now she can't put any weight on her foot. It looks like the "boot" will be making an appearance again! She says it feels exactly like it did about four years ago when she dropped one of my dad's full oxygen tanks on her foot...and it's the SAME foot too! Well, everydoggie, that's about all my news for today! Even though we are dog sitting for Molleigh, we 3 Aire-kids are not being neglected. When she's in her crate thingy, we lie on the floor next to her crate so we can make sure she's okay! We think she will be going back home in a couple of days. Aire-hugs, Patches (and Ezzy Rider and Jagger too)

Merry Christmas, everydoggie, everykitty and all hoomans!

Merry Christmas! It's me, Patches. As I'm sure you know, my mom has been very lazy when it comes to my blog. I keep biting her in the butt to get her to post something, but she says she's busy. Ha! I think she just spends too much time lovin' on the big FrankenJagger! I think he's taking over my MOM! Some time ago, we won another gorgeous mitten ornament made by Mitch and Molly's mom. We were soooooo excited to get it! It is at the top of our tree with the other two that their very talented mom made!

We always get a little sad at this time of year, but this year we will have a distraction. We are having Christmas dinner at our house, so my mom has been extra busy. We don't know exactly what she has been making, but she isn't giving US any of it! The nerve of that woman! We hope all of you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I will keep trying to get my mom to post more often. Aire-hugs, Princess Patches (and Ezzy Rider and Jagger too)

Guess what we got!

Hi, everydoggie! It's me, Princess Patches! Yes, I am still the princess, but it seems that the big Jagger boy is becoming the KING of my house. I think my mom is in love with him. She's always loving on him and making up new names for him and stuffs like that! Should I be jealous? Oh, and his newest name is FrankenJagger for halloweenie! Okay, back to the purpose of my post. This is a new sign that will be posted somewhere on our fence. We haven't figured out just exactly WHERE yet. My mom would LIKE to put it on our front door, but she's afraid that might look a little tacky. Maybe we can get her to put it on a post in our front yard. Then all the peoples who walk or drive by would know that Airedales live here. Also, any burglars should think twice before crossing the jaws (I mean PATHS) of 3 hungry Airedales. Of course, all they have to do is take one LOOK at FrankenJagger and they would RUN the other way! That boy is twice as big as me and Ezzy! If you would like a sign like this with your dog's breed on it, click here. The peoples over there are really great to work with. The first sign we got looked like some kind of terrier, but not an Airedale. My mom pee-mailed them and sent them a picture of what an Airedale is supposed to look like. This is the new sign and we think it's pawfect! In case the link doesn't work, just type this into your browser: mysecuritysign.com/breed/dog-signs-by-breed.aspx. They have lots of different signs to choose from and it doesn't have to say "crossing". They have other ones too! That's it for today, everydoggie! Aire-hugs, Patches and Ezzy Rider and FrankenJagger too

We interrupt this bloggy for...a commercial!

That's right, everydoggie, we are doing a commercial, today for Viva La Dog Spa Facial Wipes! We have to give them 12 paws UP!

We each had our faces cleaned with the facial wipes and we have to say, "they are very refreshing and the pleasant fragrance lasts for quite a while". Our beards were even softer than usual...and WE have some pretty wirey beards. Yes, the tub they come in, is pink with a black lid, but the boyz don't mind. Even I (Patches) let my mom clean my eyes and face with the wipes since they are hypoallergenic (and I am allergic to lots of stuffs). Around here, we don't have a tear staining problem, but I bet it works wonders on white or light colored doggies. If you want to try some, go on over to: www.vivaladogspa.com and order some for yourselves! This concludes this commercial. We think everydoggie will love these. Aire-hugs, Patches, Ezzy Rider and Jagger

I am a cone head!

Hey, everydoggie! It's me, Patches. My personal secretary (aka Mom) hasn't done a blog post in so long, that she wasn't aware of all the changes to blogger. She put in like 5 pictures and can only find ONE. Anyway, I am a cone head! Yep, I have two hot spots on my back, near my tail. Since I won't leave them alone, my mom and Aunt Wendy decided to make a cone-head out of me. It took them about 10 minutes to cone me, but I unconed myself in about 5 minutes. Woohoo! I even ripped my collar off. No stupid cone for me! Our blue birdies have a new set of babies. We see the mom and dad taking food into the house for them, twice a day. Now we are on blue bird patrol to see when they leave the nest. We will know it's coming soon when we start to see the last batch of babies show up to help with the feeding. A couple of weeks ago, my mom deserted us! She went all the way to O-HI-O to visit her family. Mom's uncle, from Jacksonville, Fl. was going up for a class reunion and he invited my mom to ride along! Mom said it was a long trip both ways, but it sure was nice to spend some time with her family. She hadn't seen them in almost 4 years! She's hoping her uncle does that again some time...he usually rides a motorcycle all the way up there and my mom say, "No thanks" to THAT! Well, she's been back for about a week and still trying to catch up. Well, everydoggie, it's about time for your 465th trip outside today! Aire-hugs, Patches (and Ezzy Rider and Jagger too)

We are a 3-Airedale household again! Woohoo!

Hey, hey, hey, everydoggie, everykitty and every human! It's me, Princess Patches! We have big news! About 2 months ago, my cousins Ezzy Rider and Jagger moved in with me! Okay, with Mom too! And Aunt Wendy came with them. So all 5 of us are living in the same house. Woohoo! I have two bitey face pals. And I DO mean bitey-face! We are playing almost constantly. Every once in a while, we have to take time out from bitey-face to do big zoomies out in the back yard. Oh, and to eat, but we aren't away from a good game of bitey-face for long! It sure feels good to have Aire-buddies again! Aunt Wendy is making some big changes in her life and my mom and I invited her and her two Aire-boys to come and live with us. Sorry, I never did give you an update on our Blue Birdies! They raised a whole family in our bird house and now, they have moved to another one of our Bluebird houses and they are raising a SECOND family! The house they are in, now, is right outside of our ginormous box window in the kitchen. We can sit at the table and watch their comings and goings. My mom feels very lucky that they came back to be with us after being gone for 2 years! Well, everybody, that's all the news for now...except that it is HOT HOT HOT! Right now, it is 103.6 degrees F outside! Those birdies must be cooking! We run down the stairs, do our bidness and get back inside! Aire-hugs, Patches (and Ezzy Rider and Jagger too!)
