Wheelie Wednesday...

Hi everyone it is me Melitta now I know it has been some time since you have all heard from me so I thought I better report in. Mom found some adventures of me locked away in my sisters cell phone that she didn't even know were there!! So she uploaded the pictures and here is one weeks worth. Oh trust me she just put a few up from this adventure. Ally, Ty, Willow and I had a great time checking out the garden and romping through the yard. Those kids are crazy.....and that Willow....I just don't know what to say about her. Well I can say this: SHE DIDN'T TRY TO MURDER ME LIKE HER MOMMY DID TO PIERE AND PACO!!! So my Willow rocks! Let me walk you through our adventure!!


Here I am on what they call "The Great Pumpkin" and I am queen of the world!!! It may look little here but it did get big!!!
Poor Willow had to stay on the other side of the fence because the "folks" were not out there with us. But I am on a watermelon. Do you see her whispering in my ear? She was telling me to get it closer to the fence so she could grab it a run off with it for "us"! Some how I didn't think the "us" really meant ME.

Ok I am in a jungle of green here! This stuff is call swiss chard? My humans love this stuff. Ty says it is the best stuff in the world! Nana taught my mommy how to make it a long time ago. Mom make bunches and bunches of it then froze it for winter time. *ignore the weeds*

This is the best part my friends!!! This is how we got to and from the garden!!! Yes this is where I got to ride so I could see the WORLD from our back yard! When daddy is home we use the big tractor but when it is just the kids this is "their" tractor. Aren't they inventive. They didn't harvest much that day because they were tooo busy showing me around.

Thanks for grooving with me today my friends. Next week we will go the broken McDonalds where mom is yet again having a fit about all the broken stuff around her. Boy does she need some chill pills.
BIG NOSE POKES....MALITTA

Lions and Tigers and FLEAS

Fleas....this girl has fleas!!! Mommy is not happy with this situation at all!!! You see I don't have them....hmmmmm. Mommy was holding Pilar the other night and saw IT!!! She freaked, she hates those things. We have never had those things b4. Grrrrr When mommy worked at the vet she saw people come in all the time asking for "help" with fleas and would feel so bad for them. We got our medicine for those things...how did this happen. Mommy says it was because Pilar was out gallivanting across the street with the flea and tick ridden neighbor dog. *That is why she can't be trust....that running off thing*
So mommy is going to dunk her and the house and clip her. Oh no wait....she can't find the clippers....tee hee....we think daddy threw them away on accident. hahahahahaha So I guess that means off to the groomers she goes. HAHAHAHAHAHA Wait.......does that mean I have to go to??? Mommy...........
I gonna go help find those clippers!!

Mommy here, just wanted to say thank you to everyone for coming by and checking on us! We are still so sad about Miz Greta. The puppies are doing fine and Pepper is being a great "mommy" to them. We appreciate each and everyone of you!

Sad news at Apache's Tribe

GRETTA GUCCI


This is a picture of Gretta with my kids. Taken at my uncle's house a few years ago.
Today we come to our blog with a very very heavy heart. Most of you are familiar with Apache's tribe.....most of you are familiar with Gretta. Gretta just had 12 beautiful puppies. After the puppies were born she became ill. Oh everything was done to save Miz Gretta....but she passed over to the Rainbow Bridge this morning. Leaving behind 12 babies, one devastated mommy, a blown away sister and a house full of sad Dales.
I know my Aunt Gretta is being greeted by my Sadie, Asta Miles, Marcie Girl and so many others that went before her in our family. But this still hurts the same. You will be missed Miz Gretta Gucci....may you rest in peace our sweet one!

We love you,

Willow, Pilar,Teak,Maiz,the Lizards and our hoomans whose eyes are leaking without stop!

My House is getting BROKEN!!

Hi pals!!! I am beginning to understand how Mango and PeeWee felt when their howse was broken and being put back together. My pawrents are breaking my kitchen!!!! I want to help but they just won't let me. I keep getting sent to my kennel, my yard or to mommy's room. Rumor has they are going to break the wall down next. I wonder if they will let me help then!!!! Mommy is a nervous wreck. I begged daddy to let me take her place! No pictures yet....just something called stress.
So now for my debut.....you can go to Teresa's blog and see more pictures of me. Mommy says I am even smiling in one. In one of the pictures I actually stole the blahball from my boy and took off. Nah he never caught me!!!
So here it is http://olliephotography.blogsome.com/2008/10/06/willow/ I hope you all like them. If you can't make it there let mom know.

Big smooches,
Willow
Mom says she promises to catch up with everyone! So sorry she is being neglectful. Bad mom.

Photo Shoot

Hi everyone! I am back. Yep I have been gone for a few days. We have been kind of busy. My kids tend to keep us very busy with school, festivals, blahball games, homework......oh that list goes on. So I asked mom.....when is it just going to be about ME!!!!

Well......on Sunday I had a photo shoot. This really cool lady who lives in Michigan named Teresa came to my house. She took a bajillion pictures of ME!!! (ok those kids snuck in a few of them too darn it....oh and lets not forget about Miz Pilar!!) I got to run and play and frolic and just about do whatever I wanted just so she could get the right picture!!! Do you see that picture above? That is one of them!!! My mommy loves black and whites so she did this one for my mommy. Teresa takes boootiful pictures of black doggies in black and whites (well in color too).

I got a little cranky and didn't want to mind.....so mommy made me take a time out. Can you believe it??? So during my time-out....a much needed one according to mommy, the hoomans talked!!!

Teresa shared with mommy that she works with a rescue group here in Michigan. This rescue group takes the doggies that nobody would rescue, yep that is right the ones headed for the bridge before their time!!!! Cool isn't it! These pups do get forever homes too!!!

Then mommy got to educate Teresa (my new pal with good treats) on the Airedale breed and all their colors. Not to mention when she came in the house I went right over and sat on her lap. I just thought she was there for me to use as a chair. Another hooman......another lap...chair...whatever!!!

So this is just one of the many pictures. We call it the teaser picture!!! teehee Miz Teresa is a very busy lady.....smart too. We should be able to see the pictures in a few weeks when the bajillion of them are done! We will also put something up on our sidebar so you can go to her bloggy and see me and all the other doggies!!! We have a feeling that once grandma sees a few of the pictures of me and my kids......well ya know....she will be buying a few!!!! It is just because we are all so darn cute!!!! (love ya g-ma)

Well this is Willow signing out for today from the Compound. Advising you all that if someone says......can I take your picture. You just might want to say yes. You will make a new friend and have fun......not to mention all the treats you will get!!!

WOO HOO......I WIN!!!!

I am sure you have all done this before!! Ignored that box when they call our name!!! Yeah you know what I am talkin' about!

Well I have been doing some thinking.....and you are all right. That crappy thing in my kennel has got to go!!! And I mean NOW!!! Ok I am sitting in the middle of my kennel, toy box and toys. I want no part of any of them. Even my piggy and pink duck (which is dying by the way, my sister taped it). I went on strike!!!!

What kind of strike???? First I did the silent pout strike......didn't work. So then I did the PIGGY STRIKE!!!!! teehee lol hahaha Those of you who don't have piggies may not understand....but......those of you WITH piggies understand what I am talking about!!!! Daddy says they sound like a bad deer call. So this is how it went.....they would talk I would honk my piggy.....they would put it up.....i would get it and yep.....honk my piggy......they would stop talking I would stop honking.....they talk.....I honk piggy....kids hid it.....i found it.....started honking her in the middle of the night!!!! I would hide her under my blankie and when put in the kennel I WOULD HONK HER!!!

Wait wait is this a strike or a protest???? Hmmmm!!! Anyway I am getting a new pillow. A REAL pillow for my kennel. Pilar loves that crappy one of mine so mom says she can have it. I say good riddance!!

A big big thank you to all my supporters who helped me with this!!! I am still on the couch and in the beds.....since they belong to me. Another note of good news. They are thinking of getting the girl a bigger bed because she just isn't fitting in it anymore. Something about she is a bed hog....I don't know......

love,

Willow
