Two Good Dogs

Ruses!?

Hey, sorry we haven't blogged in a long time. 

Our mom is getting ready to go on a "ruse" as our pal Whistle puts it.  We are not happy.  We don't like her to go ANYWHERE.

Any ideas for keeping her home after all?

Silly Thumb Havers

Our thumb havers are VERY SILLY.  We are just saying!

Here are some of the things they like to do (some of which we like, too):

• Kiss us immoderately
• Say "Two Good Dogs!" as if no one ever said it before!
• Play "Roll the Puppy" with Josie
• Drive us in the car
• Go to the dog park
• Put sunglasses on Josie (I don't like that!!)
• Brush us (not liking that so much either)
• Trim us (etc.)
• Play CHASE in the house
• Take us swimming in the hot tub (Josie likes, Boudreaux does NOT!)
• Worship our every move

Actually it's not so bad here. 

We'll stay a while.

Personality plus

We amaze our mom all the time at how we are both Maltese dogs but we have SUCH different personalities.  Like for instance....

**Our mom likes to take us for walks, and we both like it too.  We have different approaches to getting ready for walks, though.

Josie:  "Yay!  Yay!  Did you say walkies!?  Yay!  Let's go!  Woohoo!  Here I am, here I am, I'm holding still, put the leash on me, let's GO!" (you may wish to read in Tigger voice to get approximate idea)

Boudreaux: "Oh, I dunno.  Maybe not right now, ok?  I'm just not sure if I'm up to it.  I'm just going to lie down over here 2 feet from you and that leash, ok?  Oh, really?  I have to come over there?  Well, you can drag me by my leg.  Ok, you're going to pick me up and put it on?  Well, I have to get all LIMP then like a big noodle."  (Eeyore voice is most appropriate for this character!)

We both like the walkies once we get going. 

**Greeting our people:  We both come running, but:

Josie:  "I like to BARK.  Hello!  Hello!  Hello!  Hello!"

Boudreaux: "I'll just stand up on my back legs and put my paws on your leg.  (You should pet me then.)"

**Being picked up:

Josie:  "I like it!  I'll help you!  Then I'll lick your whole face!"

Boudreaux:  "Uh, maybe....I need to go limp now.  Darn, did you still pick me up?  Well then, let me smell your breath." 

**Sleeping  (we both sleep on the bed with our folks.  We have little dog stairs to get up and down on):

Josie:  "I'm going to curl up right here all snuggly in a ball.  Right in mom's armpit.

Boudreaux:  "I need my SPACE!  I like to lie on my back with all my paws stuck straight out, like Superman dog!"

We hope you have a good weekend!  Mom has lots to do but we hope she will play with us in the front yard.

Bye!
