Rosie the loyal guard dog

Today, when the girls took Frisco out they played Frisbee.  He played Tug o' War with them to get it back. In the course of which he growled at them. Being a loyal pooch, I got a little miffed at this. I didn't growl at him or anything, but I definitely didn't approve.  Aren't I a good, loyal, protective dog?

The girls and I take good care of each other

Look at me guarding the Tigs.

Lots of love to all,

Rosie:)

Inspiration....

Howdy, folks! 

When Roo was checking her email just now, she saw this story about a town that has a cat as a mayor.  I now have a genius idea.  I should run for governor! If a mere cat (not to be confused with a merekat:)) can be a mayor, I think a BMD should be able to be a governor. Wouldn't you vote for me?!

Don't I look all noble and gubernatorial?:)

That Loopy Lab...

You may remember my pal Frisco whom Tigger dogsat a few months ago. She's taking care of him again, and I went over to play with  him this evening.  His people have a pool in their backyard, and do you know what that k-razy dog did? He went in the pool! Yes, he did. That dog got wet on purpose. Did you ever hear such craziness?!
Unfortunately, the girls didn't bring a camera so I don't have pictures of him, so here are some of me, instead. :)

WWFN,

Love,

Rosie:)

Grams' Birthday Party

We had Grams over for a lovely Birthday dinner tonight. I got lots of Grams love!!! It made me very happy.  I gave her an extra special birthday snuggle.  The humans had a lovely dinner and cake. Here are some pictures!

Before the cake was cut.  Tiggy baked the cake and Roo decorated it. 

There were almonds between the layers

Giving Grams a birthday snuggle!

More birthday snuggles!

Thanks for spending your birthday with me, Grams!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you lots!!!!!!! Happy Birthday, and many more of them!!!!!!!
Love,
Rosie:):):)

Happy Birthday Grams!!!!!

Today is Gram's Birthday!

While I could write 88 things I love about Grams, I think that it would take Tigger a long time to type it up. By the way, there are many more things than just 88 that I love about Grams.

She's my beloved.

Me with Grams' foot.

Here are some cool facts about Grams.

She has 3 children, 6 grandchildren ranging in age from 30 to 17 , 5 (almost) great grandchildren ranging from Baby Celery to 5 years old, and a whole host of nephews and great nieces and nephews.

Grams is the best ear scratcher in the WORLD!

 She also has three "grand dogs." Me, Anja, and Skye.

She knows where a dog loves to be scritched!

 Grams is from Hawley, Minnesota originally, but has lived in this area much longer than she did  in Minnesota.

Pure bliss...

 Grams was a dietician originally and later taught home ec. She is, naturally, an excellent cook. She made me dog biscuits one time and they were A1, first class delicious!

Grams can run circles around the entire rest of the family combined and has quite the busy schedule. Fortunately, visiting me frequently makes it onto her calender. And with a BMD like me around, who wouldn't want to come by and visit?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRAMS!!!!!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!

Exciting New Contest! Predict Baby Celery's birthday!

Well folks, according to the calendar Baby Celery could be making an appearance in about 5 weeks or so. This means that it's time to open up the voting. When do you think Baby Celery will arrive? Anyone (you certainly don't have to be related to us) is welcome to comment, and the person who is closest will get fame and glory by being mentioned on the blog.

So, after reading the vital statistics below, leave a comment with your guess for birthday (and time of day if you want), birth weight, eye color, and whether Baby Celery is a bernie puppy or a human.


Vital Statistics:

Due Date: September 2 or 9 The American due date is the 2nd, but the country where Pooh lives uses a different calculation for due dates and they came up with the 9th. Anyway, on September 2 Baby Celery will be 40 weeks and will be 41 weeks on the 9th.

Full Term: Baby Celery will be full term on August 10th.

Time of Day: Pooh was born in the morning. She is not a morning person. I have no idea at what time Dr. Celery was born.Apparently he was born at 6:30 pm.

Weight: Dr. Celery was 5 lbs 15.5 oz. Pooh was 7 lbs 4 oz. (Pooh, you were wrong about your weight. Roo and Tigger were 7 lbs 10 oz, not you. This means that the average you calculated was wrong. Can you please recalculate and send it to Tigger? ) The average is 6 pounds 9.5 oz.

Eye color: Dr. Celery has brown eyes, which are dominant. However, his mother has blue eyes and his brother had green eyes.  Pooh has green eyes, however her father has blue eyes. I, of course, have lovely dark Swiss brown eyes. And if you say that Baby Celery is really Puppy Celery, then you should know that all BMDs are brown eyed.

In case you didn't get the implications of the blue eyed relatives above, basically it means that each of the adult Celeries has a single blue eyed gene which means according  to basic Mendalian genetics that Baby Celery has a 25% chance of having blue eyes.

Happy Predicting!

WWFN,
ROSIE- BABY CELERY'S FAVORITE AUNTIE!
