We've got mail!

Back during the Olympics, our neighbor, Winston, sent us this really cool Vancouver post card. Mom has not been good at getting our pictures off the camera, but she did today, so you can check out the post card.

Here's a close-up of the front. That is the north shore of Vancouver in the picture.

And here's the cool message Winston wrote to us.

It's kind of hard to read in the picture but it says:

"Hi Guys,

Greetings from Vancouver. The North Shore area has the best off leash park that I go to lots. It is right on the ocean so there is lots of beach play.

Luv,

Winston"

Thanks Winston! We love getting mail!

Super Cool Leash!

Yesterday there was a box on our porch. It was from our Texas grandma. Mom brought it inside and I got really excited. But she told me it wasn't for me. Then she said, "Oh poor, poor Steve. You just expect to get Snap Biscuits when your Texas grandma sends a package." Dad opened the box and said, "It's pictures. Not for you Stevie boy." I just knew they were wrong. My Texas grandma loves me too much to not send any Snap Biscuits. And you know what? I was right and Dad and Mom were wrong! Under all those pictures, guess what? A bag of Snap Biscuits! WOO!! I was so excited and I started jumping around in circles. There were even some Feline Greenies for Wilbur. Grandmas are the best!!

Another Blogathon prize is this new leash. Kat and I both like it. I like it because it would really coordinate with my red collar. Kat says that she is the kissy dog, so the phrase on the leash is much more appropriate for her. I guess it really doesn't matter since neither of us will be winning this leash. But to all you puppers out there, does this leash match your collar or personality? If so, maybe you'll win it!

We got mail!

Last week, Mom came home and found a package on the porch.  Of course, it wasn't for her, it was for us!  So she took it outside and showed Kat and me.  I took a close look at the package.  It came from Texas.  I had a hunch who it was from.

So Mom took the package inside to cut it open.  When she got it open, she took out the card.  I was right!  The package was from the great pups Tucker, Dot, Sam, Bear, and Millie!  They wrote us a really nice card.

Mom videoed while she unpacked the box.  We got all sorts of great stuff as you can see.  (Mom is kind of retarded.  She said that we got a sheep, but it was really a cow.)

My favorite presents are the stuffies.  I really like the beaver.  I named him Bernie Beaver.  He really looks up to me, so I make sure to take him with me when I go places like outside or to the bedroom to sleep, or just to hang out in the kitchen while Mom is cooking.  I like the stuffed cow too, but not as much as Bernie.  I just like to keep the cow close by so Kat can't play with it.

Thanks so much everypup for our presents!  Kat loves everything too and Wilbur really likes those treats you sent.  We've also found his little dog toy in random places, so I know he's playing with it while we're in our crate during the day.

Clubhouse Warming Gifts

Today we got a cool package from Echo, Meeka, Shyla, and Shadow.  They sent us some housewarming presents for our clubhouse.  Isn't that super nice of them?  We were really excited.  Here I am checking out the box.  Yep, it had my name on it!

Mom tried to take pictures of us looking at what was in the box, but of course, we were too excited to sit still, so she had to resort to video instead.  However, she did get some pictures of us with the cool card!  Here I am reading it.

Of course, Kat wanted to see too.

Here's all the stuff they gave us.  It's great to have such awesome friends!

We have never received a bag of fluff from our friends, so we had to take a sniff.  I now feel like I've pretty much met Echo!

Those mail man treats were looking so tasty, so Mom didn't make us wait and just let us have them as an appetizer to our Canidae.  Echo, they were delicious and you should get your mom to get some for you!

Finally, Wilbur LOVES his treats.  He almost ate the bag trying to get some more, so Mom had to hide it in the cabinet!

Thank you so much for the presents.  Mom says if the rain stops this weekend, we will make our paw print stepping stone.  I can't wait to see how it turns out!

House Warming Presents!

Hi ya pups! It's Kat and I just want to apologize for our lack of posting lately. Mom has been so busy with unpacking the house. Wilbur keeps trying to go outside, so he ends up locked in the office while the humans are going in and out, so that has kept us from the computer. We have lots of adventures to blog about, but first we have to say THANK YOU to the Forget Sit and Stay Gang. They sent us some really cool clubhouse warming presents.

First, we got a snuggle heart. It's really pretty and red and is supposed to absorb your scent so it's comforting. Unfortunately, I haven't rubbed a lot of scent on it because I've been busy playing with the other toy they sent us, a jailbird! Everypup needs one. It's so fun. When Mom first opened the box, she thought it was a penguin (as she says on the video), but it's a black and white striped bird with a ball attacked to it's leg. I have been so perplexed why the bird will not let me have the ball. It's bugging me a lot and I have been shaking the bird and everything, but it won't let go of the ball. So I take it everywhere I go, just in case it relaxes and releases the ball. So far, no luck. The bird is good.

They also sent us some yummy rawhide. It was a healthy kind of rawhide too and is very tasty. Steve gives it four paws up.

Here's the video of us opening the box.  Please ignore the neighbor mowing their yard.  Mom made us open the present outside because at that point, the house was still messy with boxes.

Not to be left out, they sent Wilbur something too. (I bet Witty Kitty had something to do with that!) Since Wilbur doesn't have his own super cool outdoor clubhouse, they sent him a really cool tunnel. It's got like three spokes with dangly things. Unfortunately, that's all I know about it because Mom put it behind the baby gate so only Wilbur can play with it.  Here's Wilbur checking out his tunnels for the first time.

So thanks so much, pups (and Witty)! We love everything!

Thank Woo Holly!!

Saturday when Mom went outside to get the mail, guess what she found? A package for us from Holly! We don't get a lot of mail, so we were really excited to check out our package.Guess what was inside? First there was a very lovely card with Holly's picture on the front.We gave the card a good sniffing and look over. Holly is a very beautiful Malamute!
Inside the package we found a package of beef flavored Healthy Edibles and a book. The book is called "The Taz Adventures: Dogged and Determined". We can't wait to read about Taz the husky's adventures. Maybe Mom will read them to us as bedtime stories.I was very interested in the Healthy Edibles bones.Since we had been out in the heat at the Pow Wow, and also because we behaved really well at the event, Mom let us have the bones right away. They were so yummy.Thank woo so much Holly! You're the best Mal-gal!!

Steve (and Kat too)
