Surf-a-Thon at Del Mar

2010-09-13T12:40:00.001-07:00

It was that time of year again wherein OoRah and momma hit the surf. Unfortunately, they didnt do as good as last year, but they had a blast...wipe outs and all.

OoRah and momma look good as they await their heat.

Notice the matching tops!

Momma looks like a beach beauty in her wetsuit.

Aunti Debbie took some pics with her professional camera...we cant wait to see the shots she got and post em later.

Fun/Wild Mon and Tues

2010-06-15T20:00:00.000-07:00

Monday night literally started out with some earth shaking...we won't share with you what activity momma was doing during that earth shake...but we heard the earth shake was a 4.5 off of Baja.

Despite the earth shake, we are the koolest K9s in town...check us out chilling in Christopher's brother Jeffrey's Cadi. We know how to relax in style.

It wouldn't be a fun/wild time unless we hit the beach...it was a perfect low tide and we had a blast playing chuck it in the water.

Of course momma had to make time to collect rocks and shells for her garden.

Then it was time for the Hula Hoop Showdown. Momma and Christopher Hula Hoop every time Christopher visits. We don't understand it, but its always a hoot to watch em.

Summer officially begins on the 21st...make it the best summer ever!!

Ruffs,

OoRah and Trixie

Summertime

Ruffs,

We're still hitting the beach on a weekly basis, enjoying great trail hikes, always getting awesome loving from our momma and snacking on delicious treats at the bakery.

Had to share this pic of me and the hole I dug at the beach today. Not sure where I am digging too, but I had fun doing it. OoRah just watched as I did all the work. That's my brother for ya!

Hope everybody is well and we will try to update our blog more often.

Ruffs and Licks,

Trixie

Happy New Year!!! Can you believe its 2010...geez!

So we thought we get a little crazy on New Year's Day and do some back bends on the beach...ya know get our yoga on. Trixie didnt want no part of it...but OoRah was brave to walk under momma, confident she would not fall on him.

Wishing everyone a better year than 2009.
Peace, Love, Ruffs, Licks and whatever turns y'all on. :)

Merry Christmas Baby!

Congrats to Kia for taking 1st place in her division and 6th place overall.

Was a great day and an awesome way to end our summer.

Ruffs...see y'all next time.

It's F#@king Hot in Cali!!

2009-09-05T17:49:00.001-07:00

Is there any way to stay kool in hot and drought stricken Cali...yeah hang out near the beach...though the beach temps are in the high 90s...not much koolness there. "Hey Netherlands, send us some of your kool weather and water."

The 3 Musketeers relaxing in the shade.

Hope every one's summer was a great one. Unbelievable that autumn starts in 17 days.

Next week is the Del Mar Surf-a-Thon...wish us luck.

Ruffs!

Second Time Is A Charm...

2009-08-07T16:02:00.001-07:00

OoRah and Trixie are signed up to compete in the Helen Woodward Surf Dog Surf-A-Thon in September. Daddy claims he will not flake out this time...(yeah right)...but Auntie Debbie said she will gladly step in if he does. Check out O&T doing their tandem thing last year at Del Mar...1st time ever surfing.

Check out OoRah last year at Del Mar.

Reckon its time to start practicing as its been a lil over a month since we been out on the surf board. The competition is fierce too at Del Mar.

Wish us luck!

A word from the Green Eye Trixie

2009-08-02T19:58:00.000-07:00

"That's right baby...I am the sexy bitch with the green eye."

"And if ya know me, then you know that my other eye is blue. Sorry we haven't posted, but we don't like to be repetitive in our postings...so if nothing above normal exciting is going on, we're not going to post. But just so ya know, we have been spoiled by the great summer weather here in Cali (75-80 degrees daily), so of course we been hanging at the beach and loving life...no complaints here."

"We hope everyone is having a wonderful summer as we are."

"Not sure when we will post again, but we always enjoy checking out your blogs. Go get your bark on, dig some holes, let loose and chase your tail (or somebody elses), and hope to see y'all again soon."

Ruffs,

Trixie

p.s. Uncle Rene raised over $5,000.00 from the Surfin Paws Surf Event. That's some good money to help the animals at the shelter in need. :)

Surfin' Paws Event!!!

2009-07-12T12:06:00.001-07:00

Oh yeah...its finally here...Surfin' Paws Event. Y'all should note that OoRah and Trixie did not compete because Scott suddenly became ill. For those who know the story "yeah right". I still had to go and wanted to go for many reasons, including helping Sammy...plus I keep my commitments. It was an emotional day for me as I was missing OoRah and Trixie...I knew they could have rocked it...such is life and we are hoping to surf in the September event. With that said, it was a great day and a great event...Sammy represented for OoRah and Trixie...and he did an outstanding job.

Setting it up for a ride.

Getting ready to rock it.

"Oh shit!!"

"I'm gonna catch ya sucker!"

Sammy riding it.

"OK Auntie I, that was a good heat...got any treats in there for me?", Sammy says.

Rene and Kia getting ready for their heat.

Peace baby!

Thanx you Debbie for the great pics and thanx to you and Glenn for supporting us. U both rock!!! Check out Debbie's site for more kool pics. http://www.waldensweb.com/

Rene put on an awesome event...all the proceeds went to the OC Animal Shelter. At night there was a Red Carpter After Surf Party...I failed to get pics of that as I was partying. ;)

Thanx for stopping by and hope to see ya again soon.

Last Surf Practice...but...

2009-06-28T13:26:00.001-07:00

Today was our last surf practice before the big event...but we think the humans had more fun (in the water) than us dogs. Looks like we've gone back in time...momma is stylish on the beach with her swim cap.
Momma and Auntie Julie are all smiles.
Auntie Julie giving the thumbs up.
Once again the swell was a bit big for us to surf in, but we got wet any way. "Did we really have a choice?" OoRah says.
Sammy giving it a go. "But we think its best Sammy if you open your eyes!"
Sammy is determined just like his momma. "OK, I'll try one more time."
Trixie says "Yes the humans did have more fun. We just want to romp on the beach...leave the water sports to y'all. But its all good."
If we don't chat with y'all, have a great 4th of July and hope to see ya at the surf event.

Peace!

Congrats Ms. Kia

2009-06-24T13:41:00.001-07:00

Congrats to Ms. Kia for placing 3rd in her division at the Coronado Surf competition last Saturday. U rocked it girl!!! And good thing we're not in your division...we'll be surfing with the big dogs!

"Work it...everybody get on the surf board!"

"Nice attempt!"

Remember July 11th at Huntington Dog Beach...come out and get your surf on. Ummm, wonder what color wig Kia will be wearing that day. :)

Hope to see ya there!

Ruffs!

Happy 1st Day of Summer!

2009-06-21T15:56:00.000-07:00

California Sunday

2009-06-14T15:18:00.000-07:00

What do Californians do on a Sunday morning...they hit the surf baby! Momma giving OoRah a good luck kiss before he heads out to practice surfing.
The 3 Musketeers all suited up in their life preservers.
Did we mention that the swell was huge!!! Trixie getting carried out by daddy. Even though we planned our practice at low tide, we didn't realize that there was a major swell in town. "Whoa is me" Trixie says.
Trixie setting it up, getting ready to work it out. Look at that concentration.
Oh, wipe out!!!
Sammy trying to hitch a ride with Trixie....tandem surfing.
OoRah's turn.
"Not yet, give me a smaller wave please" OoRah says.
"OK, I can ride this one, I think."
Sammy's turn.
After we got done practicing, daddy decided to ride some waves to show us how it's done. "Go daddy!"
Despite the swell being huge, we had a great time. No matter what the conditions, it's always fun hanging out at the beach.

Until next time...rock on baby!

Peace!

We Know, We Know!

2009-05-25T19:47:00.000-07:00

We know we haven't published a post in a while...but we're here now and don't we look grand. ;)
Today is Memorial Day...and since momma didn't have to work, we got the weekend off practicing surfing. Not that we don't love to surf, but it was nice to romp, wrestle and just be the crazy dogs we are at the beach this morning.
Our best buddy Sammy joined in on the fun as well.
Sammy and OoRah running from crazy Trixie, sharing secrets and a laugh.
Sammy thinks he is an American Indian Dog. Oh Sammy if only you knew.
Three weeks ago, it was Mother's Day and our Grandpapa and Grandmama came to visit. Our momma took em out to a nice brunch. It's always good to see Grandpapa and Grandmama. We wish they would visit more.
Some very exciting news involves our Auntie Elke and the new member of her family, Kylia. Congrats and we look forward to seeing Kylia grow up to be a beautiful young ummm bitch.
Hoping everybody had a great holiday weekend.

As always, thanx for stopping by.

Ruffs,

O&T and their momma too!

More Surfing & More Fun

2009-05-03T19:46:00.000-07:00

We hit the surf again...practice makes perfect ya know. And today we had the whole gang with us. Momma and Auntie Julie striking a pose before heading out to surf. "Oh yeah...hotness"
"Let's hit it!"
Sammy was the first to ride...though this wasn't much of a ride, it was a good attempt.
OoRah taking a break to show his sexiness. "This sexy smile is for you Lav."
Even though we are suppose to be practicing our surfing skills, still have to make time for a lil American Indian wrestle, with wetsuits and all.
Trixie's turn.
Kia riding the whitewash...go girl!
Sammy coming to Kia's rescue..."I'll save ya baby" Sammy says.
Time to introduce the new kid in the family, Hector. Uncle Rene' got him from the shelter and he is just adorable. Momma and Hector having some nice words. And Sammy giving his momma a kiss.
Hector is suave'...check him out looking at mommas porn boobs. "Naughty."
Oh yeah...more hotness.
After surfing and playing, Uncle Rene settled in on the sand with his camera and took some amazing pics. Thanx Uncle Rene!
The first weekend in May was a great way to kick off the month. No complaints here as everyone is all smiles.
Thanx for stopping by.

Peace & Love, OoRah, Trixie and their momma too!

Surf's Up Baby!!

2009-04-19T19:14:00.000-07:00

Oh yeah, we hit the surf today...but before we get our surf on, momma is making sure Trixie's life preserver is snug and secure.
Beach Babe Trixie.

Trixie is checking to make sure OoRah's life preserver is on correctly.

Time to hit the waves. "Don't let go yet Daddy" Trixie says.

"I'm almost ready."

Ready, set, go...Trixie is riding the wave.

Work it girl!

OoRah is just too sexy for this...Joe Cool he is.

Sammy says "My turn!"

Sammy's mom Julie is completely excited as this is Sammy's first wave.

Nice ride Sammy...way to go!

Needless to say, we had a great day at the beach surfing. We gotta get ready for Uncle Rene's surf event in July which is fast approaching.

Also was nice to spend some quality time with Daddy. He had the afternoon off, so it was only fitting to hit the beach.

And, it was crazy hot...can ya say 90 degrees...Wow!

Peace & Paw's Up til next time. :)

Happy Easter!

2009-04-12T18:51:00.001-07:00

OK, so the Easter Bunny may not have brought us a chocolate dipped rabbit, but we had a great time at the beach playing and hanging out with this cool fella (Michael) that we met. We were trying to convince momma to take him home, but despite he being nice eye candy, momma said he wasn't all there as he kept asking the same questions multiple times. He says he is gonna go to Uncle Rene's surf event....so lets see what happens.
Instead of a chocolate dipped rabbit, we took the next best thing...a non-chocolate with molasses eyes and whiskers cat. Ummm ummm good.

No complaints and no worries here.

PS - Thanx Auntie Debbie for stopping by Saturday. Was great seeing you!

Oh It Was Hot Up In Here Today!

2009-04-05T19:13:00.000-07:00

Yeah we know we haven't done any blog updates in a while...but all is kool on our end. We've been doing the same awesome fun stuff, reckon just too lazy to add any updates. But it was oh so hot that we couldn't let this Sunday go by without posting some beach pics from the day.
Especially when momma and Auntie Julie are looking so delicious.

Even in the water, OoRah still has a sexy stride.

Sammy definitely was having a great time.

Of course we had to get our American Indian wrestle on...

Beach outing wouldn't be complete without some wrestling.

"Ummm" OoRah says, "All this playing got me hungry. I wonder if any fish is in here to eat?"

We want to express our condolence to the loss of our pal Chakka overseas. We will miss seeing his sweet face on Auntie Yvon's blog.

Peace & Much Love until next time,

O, T & I too.

Diggin' It

2009-03-15T16:37:00.001-07:00

Oh yeah, y'all know what we did today. After the morning fog lifted, it was just gorgeous out.
We're diggin 2 China...

We're diggin 2 the Netherlands...

Nope...we're diggin the day.

Momma's "Gadget" hung out with us at the beach and he played and threw the ball for us the entire time. Then he gave us a bath. Now that was mighty nice of him.

For our Irish friends, want to wish y'all a Happy St. Patty's Day and Spring is this Friday.

Ruffs!!!

Sunny, Nice Temps, Low Tide = Beach

2009-03-08T16:38:00.000-07:00

"Can't complain about anything today...and why complain, it don't solve matters."
"So let's party and get our run on!"

OoRah truly enjoying himself in the water. Reckon he's getting ready for the Surfinpaws Surf Event in July.

Trixie of course is the beautiful Beach Babe. "U go girl...work it!"

In the news, not too many good/happy stories being reported lately, nothing but bad juju. We're not going to dwell on what's wrong, instead we're going to keep marching forward, laugh more than cry and lend a helping hand where needed.

As always thanx for stopping by.

Ruffs,

OoRah & Trixie...and their momma too. :)

The Fields are in Bloom

2009-03-07T16:11:00.000-08:00

From all the rain we received in February, the fields are in bloom with Wild Flowers and Mustard Grass. Was a crystal clear day with temperatures in the 60's.
We're doing our best to send some Cali warmth to the our extended family in the Netherlands. :)

Lazy & Hot Sunday.

2009-03-01T19:33:00.000-08:00

First off, can you believe its March 1st!?! We're still celebrating Valentine's Day, enjoying those extra kisses and lovin. This weekend was chillin out doggy style. And dig this, the temperature was in the 80's...it was like summer time.
It was a lazy Sunday...after we soaked up the sun rays, we took a stroll downtown.

Momma was happy to work on her golden skin tan and do a lil magazine reading.

Oh, as promised, check out the link to momma getting her groove on at Matt and Kelli's wedding. http://www.youtube.com:80/watch?v=fFywEnwnpH0

A big thanx to Uncle Rene for putting it together.

Peace/Ruffs!

Bill Cantos...momma loves him

2009-02-26T22:16:00.000-08:00

Momma was invited to a private party where Bill Cantos performed. It should be noted that Bill Cantos is one of mommas' fav jazz musicians. And yes, she loves him. Here they share a smile.
Momma said Bill made a joke about him being shorter than her. He kept talking about her legs. Hummm...too bad he is married.

Bill doing his thing.

Did we mention that momma loves him. :)

Momma said she had a great time meeting Bill and watching him perform. Sweet dreams are in store for tonight....

Congrats Matt & Kelli

2009-02-22T22:26:00.001-08:00

Mommas friend Matt got married today.
Matt and Kellie's first dance as husband and wife.

Uncle Rene and momma...ummm their smiling because 1)they're hot; and 2) because they are not the ones getting married. :)

OK who is this young thing? Cute, he can dance, but too young and too short.

Congrats Matt & Kelli...we wish you all the best years filled with heaps of love.

P.S. Uncle Rene did a video of momma and friends dancing...that will be coming soon.

Peace!

Just Checking In.

2009-02-21T21:43:00.001-08:00

Just checking in...All is good on our end and we survived the 7 day rain, sleek, snow and hail storm. So today we went to the beach and it was all about the ball. Below Trixie is heading out to retrieve the ball as OoRah keeps his paws dry on shore.
"Yeah sis, get that ball!"

"Com'on ya gotta share it." OoRah says.

After an afternoon at the beach, (young) Scott came over and hung out with us.

Happy Valentine's Day.

2009-02-13T19:32:00.000-08:00

It may be Friday the 13th, but we're gonna wish y'all a Happy Valentine's Day anyway. May this Valentine's bring y'all an extra dose of lovin' and may everyday be celebrated like Valentine's.

Peace & Love,

Where's the Pot of Gold?

2009-02-09T12:11:00.000-08:00

No I didn't take this pic (was taken by a report for OC Register), but I had to share as its way coolio. Though, I want to know where the gold is...Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow....where it be at???? Or better yet Pot of Hot Real Menz....yeah baby. :)

Driving Ms. Trixie

2009-02-08T19:30:00.000-08:00

"Come on!", Trixie says. We got a couple hours break in the rain, so we made haste to the beach. Reckon OoRah and momma was moving to slow, so Trixie decided to get behind the wheel and take charge.
At the beach, i.e., the chase game is on.

Run, run, run baby.

Trixie took a liking to a rock that was home to many barnacles.

She took such a liking, that she decided to guard it from OoRah. Hopefully the barnacles appreciated her guard dog effort.

After a couple hours hanging out, getting all wet and sandy, its time to head home for a good bath.

Despite the rainy weekend, we had good fun. Nothing else much going on...just taking care of life's details and keeping it real with a smile on our face.

Momma said Uncle Rene's surfingpaws.com site is up and running, so you can sign up now to compete in the surf contest. We can't wait.

Peace!

Happy Birthday Sam-Sam!

2009-01-25T20:11:00.001-08:00

Happy Birthday Sam-Sam! Today Sammy turned the big 3...so of course we had to help him celebrate. And what do ya get when you turn 3...
A juicy kiss from Trixie.

Oh baby!!!!

Then we took a hike to Nob Hill and played amongst the mustard grass.

Run run run.

A birthday celebration is not complete without a visit to 3 Dog Bakery for some fresh baked treats.

Sammy thanx for letting us help you celebrate your number 3 birthday. It was great fun.

Barrack H. Obama...hell yeah baby!!!

2009-01-19T19:08:00.001-08:00

If you have to ask what's happening this week, you don't need to be told! Barrack H. Obama gets sworn in as El Presidente of the United States! Are we excited? Hell yeah!
Trixie is so excited she worn mommas Obama shirt most of Monday.

In addition to the excitement of Obama becoming El Presidente, as always we had a great dogs life weekend. The warm weather still graced us in Southern Cali, so we took advantage of it and got wild at the beach.

Trixie demonstrating her aerial American Indian moves.

OoRah got moves of his own balancing on one leg.

"Bring it on!"

OoRah attempting to submerse Trixie in the water...not gonna happen.

We send paw-wishes to Obama and his family. We do hope he delivers and brings "change" throughout our country. Momma says things are F----- up and we need change now.

Thanx for stopping by and be sure to sign up to get your surf on in July at http://web.me.com/bruz1111/SurfinPaws/Welcome.html. If you don't surf, com' on down and watch...it will be great fun. I think our cousins Kia and Poncho V did some practice surfing this weekend. Check em out at kiapet.com.

Ruffs!

OK, we're up now!

2009-01-11T19:53:00.000-08:00

Its been an unbelievable weather week. Monday through Thursday the low averaged from 27-35 degrees and highs were 55-60. Then all of sudden on Friday we got crazy 60 mph winds and the temperature hit 75 plus. Needless to say, Sunday we hit the beach with our cousins Kia and Poncho V.

Poncho V was a running machine at the beach...fast lil Chihuahua. So fast he is going to enter the Chihuahua races in spring. Go Poncho V!

Kia got in the groove as well.

Momma and Auntie Chris...ummmm hot beach babes no doubt!

Uncle Rene' and Auntie Chris rode up on the motorcycle...styling.

And yep, in the back pack is Kia and Poncho V.

Other happenings this past week: On Thursday at 7:49 p.m. there was a 4.5 magnitude earthshake (we stayed calm and suffered no damage). We received via snail mail a cool card from Auntie Elke, Lav and Sor (thanx). And finally, Uncle Rene is putting together a surf event in Huntington Beach to be held on July 11 (so mark your calendars). You can find more details at surfinpaws.com.

Important happening for this week...our grandmama's birthday is January 12th. She is the best grandmama in the world..."We love you grandmama and Happy Birthday!"

Alrighty y'all, thanx for stopping by and have a great week.

;)

No we're still not sleeping.

2009-01-10T16:03:00.000-08:00

No we're still not sleeping 2009 away...well...maybe OoRah is. He came across daddy's eye cover and decided to give it a go and get his snooze on. We apologize that we haven't updated our blog since New Year's Day, been busy getting back to a somewhat normal schedule. Mommas taking more dance lessons, yoga classes and a Spanish class, and she is also doing more obedience training with us.
We hope every one's New Year thus far is off to a groovy start...ours is. We promise to update soon.

Peace, ruffs and heaps of licks,

O&T ;)

Happy New Year!!!

2009-01-01T10:43:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year! We could not think of a better way to ring in 2009 than to be snuggled up on the bed, snoozing with momma.
We wish everybody a prosperous 2009. May your heart be filled with more love than sorrow, laugh more than cry and have less hesitation so your life can be filled with new experiences and challenges.

Peace & Much Love,

OoRah & Trixie and our crazy momma too.

2008-12-28T19:15:00.000-08:00

Today we allowed momma a day out. :) Dressed very pretty in pink, she went to the Cohans' Holiday Celebration party. If you can get pass looking at momma, check out the ocean view from one of the many outside decks at the Cohans' house. Just amazing.
Momma and Auntie Holland enjoying the view.

Momma giving her signature kiss to the camera.

The hosts, Ron and Lee Cohan.

The one man band that played all the music, Hanley Page.

A lot of dancing was going on . Momma said she was on the dance floor 97% of the time.

Holland and Frank doing the Foxtrot.

Momma and Frank enjoying a laugh. Note: Frank is 75 years of age. If only he was younger, taller and rich. :)

Momma said she had a good time at the Cohans'. She said something about her feet hurting from all the dancing.

Thanx to the Cohans' for throwing such a lovely Holiday party.

Cold Christmas in Cali

2008-12-25T19:45:00.000-08:00

Despite the weather, we did sneak to the beach in between rain storms...but it was cold.
On our afternoon hike we came across a big tree and couldn't resist climbing it.

Momma said she can't remember the last time she climbed a tree.

Any who, we just wanted to send an shout out and hope everyone had a nice Christmas. We sure did.

Merry Christmas Baby!

2008-12-21T18:50:00.001-08:00

On this first day of Winter, we would like to wish y'all a Merry Christmas. Wishing everyone a warm and joyous holiday season.
Peace.

Its starting to look alot like Christmas!

2008-12-19T20:08:00.000-08:00

We finally got our Christmas tree. We normally get a small tree, but this year we got a big ass tree...yeah baby! Now were just patiently waiting for the Black Petes to slide down the chimney and deliver the goods.

Whatzzz Up?

2008-12-07T19:33:00.000-08:00

Hey all!
Hope this lil post finds everybody doing well this holiday season. All is good in Southern Cali. We are enjoying the slightly cooler weather and of course loving our life as dogs. Cant complain about our days of chasing Conejo, napping, eating, playing and getting loving. Though when momma took this pic Saturday morning, we were trying to get our nap on...but its all good and we gotta keep y'all updated with current photos of us.

Nothing too wild going on, but we did want to post a "hello" or "hollar".

Peace/Ruffs!!

We Are Thankful

2008-11-27T20:13:00.001-08:00

Happy Thanksgiving!!! Before we got our Thanksgiving grub on, momma volunteered at Capo Calvary Church in feeding the homeless. Below she takes a pic with B, who organized and put on the event.
There were definitely more people than last year that came out for a hot meal.

Many people with their dogs are living out of their vehicles. This cute Pit waits for his human to return with some food.

This man revealed to momma that he just got a new job and is thankful that he and his best pal Littles will be able to get back on their feet soon.

After momma did her good deed, she came home, took us for a run and made us our Thanksgiving tea which consisted of turkey with cranberry stuffing, string beans and cranberries. Umm, umm good.

Thanksgiving tea isn't complete without pumpkin pie and whipping cream. OoRah samples a lil for consumption.

After our kibble meal with some turkey and pumpkin treats, it was time to nestle up to the fire place.

We hope everybody had a nice Thanksgiving. It is sad that so many people are experiencing hardship. We are very thankful that we have a home, kibbles in our bowl and our water bowl runnith over with love that we are able to give and receive from our family and friends.

It's Starting to Feel Like Fall

2008-11-23T19:42:00.001-08:00

Though the past months have felt like summer (and no doubt it's been wonderful), but it was a pleasant change to experience more seasonal temperatures this weekend. Plus, the cooler weather helped the Fire Fighters in containing the fires that blazed and caused distraught throughout Southern Cali last weekend.
Trixie and OoRah checking out the swell before heading out to play in the water. "I think we can handle that" Trixie says.

The ocean temperature was still warm enough to romp in.

It's not a beach day unless OoRah stalks his sister.

And of course engage in some American Indian wrestling.

And silliness.

As always, we had a great time at the beach. But ya gotta check out our extended family in The Netherlands. They had snow this weekend and still went for their scheduled hike. Now that's dedication.

Check em out at: http://wolvinya.blogspot.com/

Momma said she is going to take us up to the mountains, if and when we get snow this season...burrr.

Turkey day is 4 days away...everybody have a good one.

Peace!!

Birthday Pics Courtesy of Uncle Rene!

2008-11-10T10:21:00.001-08:00

Thanx Uncle Rene!
Uncle Rene did his nice photo shop work on the top pic and he took the bottom pic of us enjoying our morning at Madison's.

Be sure to check out Kia's blog at kiapet.com to check out more pics from the day and to see what their up to as well.

Happy Birthday to OoRah, Trixie & Zoey!

2008-11-09T19:18:00.000-08:00

Today we celebrated our birthday...a whopping 2 years young!!! Our birthday was extra special as we got to celebrate it with our litter mate sister Zoey. Our day started off at 7:00 a.m. with a group hike at Top of World in Laguna Beach.
Check out Uncle Rene's new hot girlfriend, Chris, giving a shout out.

The boys with their dogs.

Mommas friend from work, Kathryn even joined the hike...and this was her first hike ever!!! Top of the World is a challenging climb and she did an amazing job.

After our hike we went to Madison's to get our grub on....we had French Toast...yummy. Once our tummy's were satisfied, it was time to get cuddly and cozy, and that means hanging out in mommas' lap.

Trixie squeezing in to get some love.

After Madison's, we came home took a lil nap then headed to the beach. We didn't stay long as it was very windy out. But we were there long enough for OoRah to "sit pretty" and express how happy he was for such a wonderful birthday.

Birthdays are not complete without cake. OK, so it's not a cake, but we got some kool treats from 3 Dog Bakery. Momma put a candle in the center of the treat and sung happy birthday to us.

We would like to thank our Grandmama Baldwin for sending us a nice birthday gift. And also to Zoey's parents Kimberly and Erin, Uncle Rene, Cousins Kia and Poncho V, Chris and Kathryn for taking part in our birthday. And to our loves in the Netherlands, Auntie Booty, Lav and Sor for sending us a beautiful e-card.

We are blessed to have such great family and friends.

Peace!

Wow November Already!

2008-11-02T16:33:00.001-08:00

Can y'all believe its November already. Time sure is moving quickly. Nothing majorly exciting to share. We had a great past week and a even better weekend. Went mtn biking, ate, napped, played, nap some more, eat some more, lay in the sun, give and get kisses/love, hike, heaps of snuggling with momma...how can we have any complaints.

Remember to get your vote on this Tuesday. If we could vote, we would vote for "Change".

Peace!
P.S. - Don't we look pretty. Another beautiful day at the beach. :)

Dalmatians for a Day!

2008-10-26T16:27:00.000-07:00

Saturday was 3 Dog Bakery's Halloween Party. We went disguised as Dalmatians and momma was Cruella deVille. We took 1st Place for Best Homemade Costume. And thanx to our Grandmama Baldwin for sewing the 101 spots on our outfits.
Auntie Kellie and Cousin Lance were Bat Girl and the Joker. They took runner up for Most Likely to Scare a Cat.

Little Bo Peep took 1st Place for Best Theme.

Ms. deVille and Bo Beep sharing a Kodak moment.

These lil cuties were the Bride and Groom...duh. :)

Of course we couldn't let the weekend end without taking advantage of the great weather. K.C. decided he would challenge Trixie to some American Indian wrestling.

OoRah taking a bite on the cheek from Trixie.

K.C. was the only dog on the beach that was able to keep up to OoRah's and Trixie's fast speed.

Frolicking in the water is always good fun.

OoRah demonstrating his agility kick before calling it a day.

Everybody be safe and have heaps of fun this Halloween week.

Peace and as always thanx for stopping by.

Weather Forecasters Don't Know Diddly

2008-10-19T16:46:00.001-07:00

The weather forecasters were predicting this weekend to be more fall like conditions...wrong! It was more perfect conditions with temps in the 70s and Trixie is definitely happy about that.
OoRah doesn't seem to have any complaints either.
OK, we know that hinnie.

Looks like Trixie has decided to dig her way to China or maybe to The Netherlands to see her man Sor.
Ummm... I think she's done digging.
OoRah opts from digging and decides to just look sexy on the beach...au natural.
As always we had a groovy weekend. Momma and Auntie Holland got a lil crazy too, put on their shimmery disco tops and went roller skating Saturday night. Go girls!
Peace and thanx for stopping by!

Awww the Weekend

2008-10-12T20:21:00.001-07:00

Sometimes we like to spend our weekends chillin' at the beach, watching the seagulls and soaking up some sun rays.
Making new friends, whether they are big
or small,
or human.
Being a adventurous, checking out the sea monsters.
Luring the rabbits.

Sharing the sunset with mommas friend.
And of course always acting silly with momma.
Enjoying a good meal and washing it down with some Bohemian beer...OK so just kidding about the beer...hee hee.
And finally taking rest, dreaming about doing it all over again.
Hope everyone had a terrific weekend.

Happy Thanksgiving to our Canada friends.

Another Day in Paradise

2008-10-05T20:25:00.000-07:00

Hey Y'all, Trixie here,

Hoping everybody had a great past week and weekend. We in Southern Cali are still experiencing a heat wave. Granted we got a couple drops of rain late Saturday, but all last week and today it feels like summer time. If there was some way I could bottle up this heat and send it to my mates in the Netherlands I would. I hear they are experiencing hard/cold nipple weather.

My bro and I had a good week and weekend filled with mtn biking, hikes and playing/visiting with our friends. This afternoon we hiked up to Rock Garden and I decided to strike a poise next to Jimi Hendrix' rock.
Before I say adios, my bro and I want to wish our Uncle Rene' and Auntie Elke an early "Happy Birthday".

As always, thanx for stopping by... Peace.

Ya sure it's Autumn???

2008-09-27T20:09:00.001-07:00

The calendar may say that Autumn began September 22, but the temperature is still saying "summer time baby"! We did a nice beach hike this afternoon...along the coast it was low 70's...nothing to complain about there. :)

Happy Birthday Lance!!!

2008-09-23T19:59:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday Lance!!!
Can you believe our cousin Lance turned 8 years young...wow! We meet Lance at the park to help him eat his delicious birthday cake. We also got to play a little Frisbee and played with our buddies Sammy and Azul.

You're a Super Star Lance! Hope you had a great birthday.

We Got a Board!!

2008-09-14T21:05:00.001-07:00

We got a surf board. One of daddy's friends wasn't using his surf board, so he gave it to us. Thanx a bunch.."ruff, ruff!!!" Today we did an impromptu practice session with our cousin Lance. Auntie Kellie and Lance was in Oceanside, so on their way home, we met them at the beach. Momma said we did pretty good. Everyone got up on the board, but riding the wave in was a bit more challenging. Auntie Kellie said we need to learn how to stay more towards the back of the board to avoid those nose dives. Nevertheless, we had a great time getting wet and playing.

Wishing everybody a great week and as always, thanx for stopping by.

Peace.

Pics taken by Auntie Debbie at Surf Event.

2008-09-08T07:05:00.000-07:00

Thanx Auntie Debbie for taking some cool pics. Check out Lance riding a wave...go Super Star!
OoRah and Trixie doing their tandem surfing.
Walking the cat walk...OoRah's expression is clearly full of confidence..."Yeah I'm sexy."
:)

Only in Southern Cali...Dog Surf-a-Thon!!!

2008-09-07T19:29:00.001-07:00

Today was the 3rd Annual Surf Dog Surf-a-Thon...so ya know what that means...surf's up baby!
Kia was in the first heat...of course she was surfing with style in her golden locks wig.
Nice ride Kia. This dog was patiently waiting his turn to go out and catch a ride.
Uh oh...then it was time for to partake in the "Beach Bum" costume contest. Check out OoRah in his Gecko costume.
And we're walking the cat walk.
Then it was back out to the water to help Lance aka "Super Star" get his surf on.

Though Lance wasn't as graceful as some of the dogs...he gave it a go and his momma Kellie raised over $700.00 and walked away with some nice gifts. "Yeah baby."
Now this dog got it down.
Even though OoRah was not in the surf contest, this was a sport that caught his attention and his liking. Daddy giving him a lil push out...
And look at OoRah go...he's surfing.
Paws to the nose baby!

After OoRah surfed a couple times, Trixie decided to give it a go, but OoRah had to join in.
Tandem surfing it is.
Heading out to the wave.
Oh yeah...we're surfing.
Was a kick ass day at the beach. Next year OoRah and Trixie will definitely be competing in the surf contest. To my surprised, they loved surfing...reckon gotta go out and purchase a surf board for em. Congrats again to Lance and Kia for a job well done.

It's Momma's Birthday & Labor Day!!

2008-09-01T16:23:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday to our momma!!! Can you believe she turned 44 years young!?! So this morning we took momma to the beach, out for breakie and then relaxed/sunbathed in the backyard. Momma said it was "perfect".
At the beach we came across a dead Starfish. So we decided to take it home, will let it dry out and eventually place it in a shadow box.
Mother Nature's beautiful makings.
OK, so it's not camping out in the wild or being on a adventurous road trip for 12 days like our Uncle Rene' did, but it was good fun camping in the backyard Saturday night.
Enough picture taking...time to get some sleep.
Hope y'all had a great Labor Day weekend.

A Shout Out From Trixie

2008-08-24T20:12:00.000-07:00

Hey everybody, as always, my brother OoRah and I thank you for stopping by and checking our blog out. We hope your summer has been as great as ours...can't believe summer is almost over. Today momma took us to the beach and of course we had a fabulous time playing in the water and playing with the other dogs.

For those we didn't get a chance to see this summer, we hope we can see ya in the fall/winter for some long hikes on the trails.

Ruffs & Licks, Trixie

Weeko licking something off her lips...hopefully it wasnt mommas kiss. Check out Trixie in the background giving Koda mouth to mouth. LMAO!!!
It was a party alright...major playing and tussling.
American Indian wrestling at its finest.
Thanx for the pics Dan-O.

Beaching it with Shadow and his daddy Scott

2008-08-17T19:16:00.000-07:00

On this beautiful Sunday, we meet Shadow and his daddy Scott at the beach. Below Trixie attempts to get the ball from Shadow.
Shadow loves chasing the ball. Not sure who had more fun, Scott chucking the ball or Shadow chasing the ball.
Round and round...
and round they go!OoRah and momma have the same hair color...golden locks on the beach.
Chilling out at the driftwood fort.
OK, one more swim before heading home.
Shadow got his swim on too.
Was a great day at the beach. Thanx for hanging with us Shadow.

Happy Birthday Weeko!

2008-08-16T19:42:00.000-07:00

Today we helped our cousin Weeko celebrate her birthday...the big 2.
Auntie Gretchen had pupcakes for all of us. OoRah is definitely enjoying his pupcake.
Group shot.
Weeko and OoRah having a tussle.
Weeko slams OoRah with her booty.
Happy Birthday Weeko!

Bitchin' Beach Day

2008-08-10T18:17:00.001-07:00

Before heading to the beach, we had to strike a pose to display mommas tattoos on her backside. Oh so sexy.
Ah a nice calm walk on the beach.
Uh oh! Time for Trixie to get crazy.
Watch out OoRah!

Nice move...OoRah gives Trixie a karate chop to the throat.
After the vigorous wrestling, OoRah decided to take a mud bath.
Trixie opted for a salt water bath.
But when we got home, momma gave us a hose bath...then we did a sun bath.
Cali sure has been heating up. Couple weeks ago we had a 5.8 earth shake and now we got a consistent heat wave. Hope everyone is enjoying their summer. Can ya'll believe its August already!?! Where did the months go.

Thanx for stopping by.

Peace!

Another Day in Paradise

2008-07-27T19:14:00.000-07:00

Today we spent the majority of the day with daddy. But before momma went out to do "adult"things, we had to take a pic with her as she was looking extra luscious.
While momma was out on her "adult" outings, she took a stroll to the end of the Pier to shoot some pics of San Clemente at a different angle.
You can't see our crib, but we live on top of the hill.
Momma said she has to be like our Auntie Elke and take a snap of the purple flower.
Daddy didn't have to work today so we spent the entire day with him. This morning we hung out at the beach and came across a cool fort.
It was nice spending Sunday with daddy as he is often working. Plus, it was nice for momma to have a break as she gives up a lot to care for us, always making us her number one priority...but we sure did miss her.

Hoping everyone had a great weekend and thanx for stopping by to see what we've been up too. Thus far, our summer has been great!

Peace.

Frisbee Lesson

2008-07-20T13:09:00.000-07:00

This morning we went to David from Disc Dog/Top Gun's Frisbee class. Even though Frisbee is not OoRah's favorite sport, he was a very tentative student.
David and his dog Maverick demonstrate some tricks.

Nice catch!
Time for mama and Trixie to try out some moves.
Trixie did the "round back" move.
And off she goes!
Was a good class. Granted we needs heaps of practice...

Oh La La...Pierre (thanx Debbie)

2008-07-09T18:40:00.000-07:00

Today's mommas friend Pierre, whom she hasn't seen in over 15 years, hung out with us for the afternoon. Yes Pierre is a big man (no naughty thoughts Ladies)...meaning he stands at 6'5 and is 200 pounds of muscle baby.
It's good to see old acquaintances and turn them into new ones again. :)
Thanx for visiting Pierre and don't be a stranger.

Beaching it with Trixie's man Sammy and Auntie Julie

2008-07-06T11:56:00.000-07:00

This morning we hit the beach with Trixie's man Sammy."OK, where's that ball?"

Uh oh! Sammy got a frightened look on his face.
Sammy is trying to run fast, but he can't out run Trixie.
Trixie says "It's time to take Sammy down American Indian style."

Sammy runs off with the ball just in time to avoid Trixie's "bewitching hour". She-devil indeed.
A mellow moment.
Checking out the washed up tree. Ummm wonder how far this tree traveled.
Sammy was determined to take the tree home, but it was just a lil to much size for pulling.
Hope everyone had a awesome and safe 4th of July weekend. Ours was nice and relaxing.

Until next time...Peace!

It's Hot Up In Here!

2008-06-22T14:58:00.000-07:00

It was 90 degrees along the coast...so warm that we took to the beach early in the morning. Trixie and OoRah checking out the waves...who will get wet first.
Water Diva Trixie makes a splash.
Ok, Trixie makes a couple of splashes.
OoRah is more smooth about his swim techniques.

Just gliding in the water...sexy smooth swimmer.
After getting wet it's time to get wild amongst the sand dunes.
Nice leap!
Go Trixie!
For ya'll in Cali, stay cool.

Happy Father's Day!

2008-06-15T10:05:00.000-07:00

With the help of momma, this morning we took daddy to our favorite Cafe for breakie.
Pan whipped up a tasty breakie.
Even though it's Father's Day, OoRah got some special rasta lovin' from momma.
And even a rasta kiss.
Not sure what Trixie's been drinking, but she looks looped. Since it's Father's Day reckon it's cause for celebration.
Happy Father's Day to all the cool daddies out there.

Beach by Day, Jazz at Night

2008-06-15T00:19:00.000-07:00

Momma took us to the beach this morning and said we are true beach beauties.
Trixie is pondering whether or not she should venture deeper into the ocean waters.
OoRah can't quite figure this sea urchin out.

"Eewww!" "OK, a lil nibble."
Then in the eve, momma went to Chris Standring's CD release party.
Momma always meets the musicians.
Here is Chris' link if ya want to have a listen to his music: http://www.chrisstandring.com/

Congrats Diesel!!

2008-06-14T09:13:00.000-07:00

Diesel whom we met at luring took 1st place at a weight pull contest!!! Rock on Diesel...truly "Diesel Power".

Can You Believe It's June 1st...Already!

2008-06-01T19:15:00.000-07:00

Can you believe it's June first already...2008 is 1/2 over. This morning on our mtn bike run, momma spotted several wild Sunflowers in the field. Seeing how Sunflowers is mommas favorite flower, she couldn't resist taking a pic of it, in addition to bringing it home and replanting it in the front yard.
Then it was to the garage to clean out some boxes in preparation for next weeks garage sale. While emptying out a box, momma came across this pic that was taken 13 years ago of her and her Dalmatian Billy. "Wow!"
OK, so enough work/house cleaning, it's time to hit the beach for some series playing, like Frisbee.

Or for OoRah, taking a stroll...
or playing in the waves.
And always looking pretty for a picture.
And of course, taking time out to give momma a kiss.
Happy June...21 more days til summer begins.

Sex & the City Premier Release Party

2008-05-30T08:37:00.000-07:00

Last night momma rolled VIP style to the Sex & the City premier release party at the St. Regis in Dana Point with Rene and our celebrity cousin Kia. Above we share a chat with American Gladiator Alex "Militia" Castro.
Oh la la...check out momma with the Calvin Klein underwear models.
Rene met his dream girl, Olga...but unfortunately, she is engaged.

Nice biceps Militia!
Well it's not an OC party unless Rene and Kia are surrounded by hot girls.
Calvin Klein underwear model strutting his...ummm stuff.
Dancing baby...
Thanx Rene and Kia for taking our momma out for a good time. You can also check out the article and more pics from the Orange County Register: http://www.ocregister.com/articles/movies-party-cocktails-2055682-saint-regis.

KSBR Birthday Bash/Jazz Concert

2008-05-25T22:48:00.001-07:00

Tonight momma went out without us. Reckon she deserves a night out. Momma went to the KSBR Birthday Bash/Jazz Concert. There were over 25 performers playing, but she only took pictures of two performers as they were the only ones that she fancied. Below is Jackiem Joyner (only 28). He plays a mean Sax. Here is his link if ya wanna check out his sound: http://www.jackiemjoyner.com/listen.html

Momma was really digging Nils though. He was very humble and momma said he gave her two kisses in addition to a poster that he signed.

Nils' site is below if ya wanna have a listen to him play the guitar. Momma also said she is gonna sleep with the poster for a couple nights. "Uh oh!"

http://www.nilsmusic.com/home1.html

Momma takes great care of us on a daily basis and we're glad she had a nice evening at the jazz concert...but next time we wanna go.

American Indian Dog Gathering at Cosmo Park

2008-05-17T19:27:00.000-07:00

Today we enjoyed an American Indian Dog gathering with our cousins and our litter mate brother Jake, whom we haven't seen in an year and a half, at Cosmo Dog Park in Gilbert, AZ.
Above is a partial group picture. Below is a full group picture.
Uh oh...someone is trying to interrupt the group picture.
Marie and her American Indian Dogs.

Trixie is Queen of the stairs.

Now OoRah is King of the stairs. OoRah and Trixie's litter mate brother Jake has taken over the throne.
Sky looking lovely. Sky lives in Arizona and was happy to meet her distant relatives.
Mommas cousin Valerie who also lives in Arizona, met up with us at the park. It was great to finally meet her.

Valerie's mate Devin fell in love with so many dogs.
OoRah is enjoying some good loving.
Cosmo Dog Park was awesome and indeed the best dog park we have ever seen. The park had a huge lake with a jumping dock. Momma threw us and our brother Jake in the water and hopefully we will have those pics soon to post on the blog.

OoRah and Jake relaxing after a good romp.It was a great day hanging with our family and friends.

Sun City West in the morning

2008-05-17T07:41:00.001-07:00

This morning we went for a walk in Sun City West and came across this cool fountain. If we had some soap, we could have taken a bath.
But then we came across this lake and that was "koolie-o"!!!
"Catch me if ya can" Trixie says.
The Swans are so beautiful as they glided on the water.
Check out this Argentina Cactus...raw beauty in the desert.

Road Trip!!

2008-05-16T18:01:00.001-07:00

This weekend we're on a road trip to Arizona to hang out with our American Indian Dog family and friends. Will be good fun and can't wait to see everyone.

Happy Momma's Day!

2008-05-11T16:33:00.000-07:00

Today is Mommas' Day. That means all mommas are suppose to relax, be spoiled and smell the sun flowers. Though it looks more like Trixie and OoRah are doing the relaxing and momma is smelling the sunflower.
This sun flower gave OoRah's nose a tickle.
After we relaxed in the back yard, we took momma to 3 Dog Bakery and gave love to Aunti Claire. Of course we got some good treats too.
Something about this ottoman chair and taking pictures. Okay, cause it's Mommas' Day, we'll take another picture with momma.
We hope all the mommas in the world had a extra special day. Now we are going to go fix our momma a special dinner.

Happy Sunday too and have a great week!

Hanging Out With Kia & Poncho Villa

2008-04-27T20:08:00.000-07:00

First off, it was freaking hot...talking 95 degrees hot. Momma's good friend Rene' and our best pal Kia and new dog on the block Poncho Villa, came to hang out with us.
First order of business (after lunch of course) was stopping by and saying hello to Auntie Vanessa aka Butterfly. Check out her cool butterfly tattoo...sweet!

Next order of business was 3 Dog Bakery for treats...and Poncho V even got a new collar and harness. What a Lucky dog he is.
Then it was off to the beach. Lovely family photo of Rene', Poncho Villa and Kia.
Uh oh...Kia got the ball.
And she definitely can hold her own with the American Indian Dogs.
Group shot.

Oh la la...momma striking a sexy pose.
After the beach, it was bath time for all of us.
Even lil Kia got a bath.
I think it's safe to say that Poncho V had a good day meeting and hanging out with his new buddies. "Welcome to the family Poncho Villa...you rock!"

Another One

2008-04-22T19:12:00.000-07:00

Soon we will have to change our blog to "Snakes". I can't believe how many snakes we have spotted so early in the year. I think this snake is a Garden/Gopher Snake (which is not dangerous/poisoness)...but I wasn't going to get close enough to find out. This snake is grande!
We came across this beauty while mountain biking this afternoon.

Celebrating Earth Day with Panhe Tribe

2008-04-20T16:36:00.001-07:00

Today we celebrated Earth Day with the Native American Village of Panhe.
I'm not quite sure who the celebrity is...OoRah or the Pahne Native American Indian.
There was some nice hand made crafts.

History information.
And a stuffed Bobcat that OoRah wanted to get.
This guy was very knowledgeable about American Indian Dogs. He was very fond of Trixie.
The dancing and singing was awesome too.
Just like Valentine's Day, Earth Day should be celebrated everyday. We must take care to treat our Mother Earth with great respect.

Nob Hill Rattler

2008-04-19T16:21:00.001-07:00

On our mountain bike ride this afternoon, we came across the Nob Hill Rattler.
Momma didn't want to test our snake avoidance skills, so she hooked us up and we watched as the snake slithered across the path.
Looks like he just ate something as his belly looks a lil plump.

Girls Friday Night with Shawn Jones

2008-04-19T00:29:00.000-07:00

Tonight momma and Auntie Kellie went to go see Shawn Jones play in Laguna Beach...yep, and we took Elke along too! It was a girls Friday night out.
Auntie Kellie, Shawn Jones and Elke sharing a laugh.

BJ (the drummer) and momma sharing a hug.
Momma and Shawn Jones.
This is the first time momma heard of Shawn Jones. Excellent blues and rock band.
Auntie Kellie getting her dance on. Now Kellie has seen Shawn Jones perform many times and is a loyal fan, and she is in love with Shawn Jones too. You go Kellie...get that man!
Shawn Jones is currently touring in Orange County, but will soon be heading to the Netherlands (no joke). So Elke, you can check his website for the dates and we hope you had a good time hanging out with us. :)

You can spot OoRah and Trixie on pages 1, 3 & 4. Check out pages 4 & 5 though for a great action shot of the Whippet wiping out. Crazy stuff.

Peace!

Outrageous Heat Wave

2008-04-13T16:33:00.001-07:00

Southern Cali is having an outrageous heat wave...90 degrees on the coast. We spent the majority of the day in the water, playing ball.
OoRah makes an attempt to steal the ball from Trixie.

"Ha...I got it" OoRah laughing says.

"Not for long little brother" Trixie replies.

Trixie stole the ball back and is off and running.

Is that a fox...no it's OoRah being sneaky.

Stay cool Southern Cali...we need to send some of this heat to our extended family in the Netherlands.

Getting Our Lure On!!!

2008-04-12T18:46:00.001-07:00

Today we went to La Mesa to get our lure on with Luratics. It was a beautiful day out too...perfect for luring.
This hound is ready to lure.

And yes, this lil guy lures too.

Our Auntie Debbie came to watch us lure and take some pictures with her mega zoom lens. Note: check out the Shepard in the back ground...he was so excited about luring and watching the other dogs, he had to wear blinders to stay calm.

Auntie Debbie and Uncle Glenn taking some pics.

Dad giving Trixie and OoRah pointers and discussing the lure course.

"Go Trixie Go!"

Trixie stretching it out.

OoRah has the lure in his sight.

"Yeah OoRah!"

The day was perfect. OoRah and Trixie each ran 3 heaps. The course was 400 yards. OoRah's time: 28.2; 26.6; 29. Trixie's time: 24.94; 26.5; 25.4.

"This is too fun" Trixie says. "Luring Rocks!"

Snake Avoidance Class

2008-04-05T12:55:00.001-07:00

Last Sunday, the "Nob Hill Rattler" terrorized us, our cousins Koda and Weeko, and others who walk the Ridgeline Trail. So Gretchen decided we needed the assistance of the Snake Man to teach our dogs snake avoidance. Below is one of the snakes (which is muzzled) used in the class.
Koda was a brave girl and was the first to receive a lesson in snake avoidance.

OoRah walking just a little too close to the snake.

OK, that's a little better distance. "I'm watching you" OoRah says to the snake.

"Run Weeko Run!"

After each dog had their snake avoidance lesson, Gretchen was the safe retreat.

A very rare sight...American Indian Dogs clam and laying still. Class must have took a toll on em'.

Well, we hope our dogs are smarter now when it comes to avoiding snakes. Be careful out there while on the trail. Though it's early, snake season is here.

All Smiles

2008-03-22T20:22:00.000-07:00

It was all smiles today at 3 Dog Bakery's Easter Celebration. Momma is flashing her pearly whites.
Check out Shadow's pearly whites and his poppa Scott.

Looks like this cutie got an early Easter treat...umm umm good.

"Where's my treat" this little fellow is wondering. Hopefully the Easter Bunny will bring him a big basket of Scooby Snacks.

Wishing everyone a Happy Easter.

We Like It

2008-03-16T18:54:00.000-07:00

We like it when the weather person is wrong. They forecast rain, but we got plenty of sunshine and temps were 65 degrees...so of course we had to hit the beach...something we never get tired of doing.
We met Zoe, who had no problem keeping up with us and even enjoyed a lil American Indian wrestling. Wow and check out OoRah and Trixie...they so light on their feet, they're not even touching the ground...floating???

But not little 5 month old Sid, who just watched on as we got our wrestle on.

"Those American Indian's are crazy", Sid is thinking.

But Sid definitely had no problem in sharing the hole Trixie was digging.

Then it was time to chase the Gaviotas. Trixie can't quite figure out how to get over the rocks though.

Gaviotas are safe for now.

Before we went home, we stopped off at 3 Dog Bakery and got our Saint Patrick's Day treat. A beautiful 3 leaf clover. But we couldn't eat it until after we had a bath.

Wishing everybody a Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

Hump Day Fun

2008-03-12T20:17:00.001-07:00

This evening we went for a walk on the beach trail with OoRah's human girlfriend Pan. Pan is the best cook in the world and OoRah just loves how she smells.
We climbed three different sets of stairs...momma says we gotta keep our ass tight.

After our walk (and a good meal from Pan), we stopped by 3 Dog Bakery for their St. Patty's Yappy Hour, and we couldn't resist giving love to Auntie Clare.

I think Trixie drank some of the green beer as she looks very intoxicated.

Sexy Huskies. And yes that's Trixie on the ground being a "Houchie".

Awww, now that's given up the love.

Happy Hump Day!

Fun Sunday

2008-03-02T18:59:00.000-08:00

On our mountain bike ride this morning, we ran into our cousins Koda and Weeko and partake in some serious running.
OoRah, Trixie & Weeko are flying down that hill. Koda decided to hang back.

Trixie running so fast, all 4 paws are off the ground.

These are some happy dogs at 7am.

Uh oh...mudd run.

After a bath and a long nap, we discovered a nice stick hiding in the Mustard Grass.

Despite the weather being gloomy Friday and Saturday, Sunday's sunny forecast made up for it. Wishing everybody a happy first week of March.

Another Rockin' Day At The Beach

2008-02-18T15:42:00.001-08:00

So who cares that the sun wasn't out...we hit the beach any way, and since daddy didn't have to work this afternoon, he joined in on the fun.
Look at Trixie...she can fly!

OoRah is too sexy for this beach.

Uh oh...She Devil Trixie emerges.

Another satisfying day at the beach.
