Bubba's First Birthday Party!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BUBBA!!!!

This is a virtual Birthday Party for Bubba! Yes, we know the party is getting started kind of late, but it has been a very long day. Come on by and say howdy and happy birthday. As our gift to you, please feel free to leave a link to your website as you sign your birthday wishes in the comment.  If you have any problems leaving your link or any pics you might want to leave, please let us know. This is the first time I have tried to adjust the settings so that links and pics could be left.

Stew and cookies will be ready in a few minutes.

THE STEW AND DUMPLINGS are now ready! Grab yourself a bowl and dip you some up. 

BUBBA'S Birthday Cookie is ready! (Peanut Butter) He just blew out his candle and it's time to eat cookies! Don't worry, I have a plate full set aside for all of us humans that don't want dog slobbers (from blowing out that candle) on theirs.

It's time for presents now, that is tradition around here, anyway, right after cake/cookies. But Bubba got overanxious and got his gift earlier today. That was okay, though, because it was so pretty outside this afternoon for running around and playing with it.

Yes, I know, a little blurry, but I had to take the pic fast before he ran off with it.

The party will continue on for hours. Anyone ready for some chips and dip? Just dive on in. Remember, no double dipping.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BUBBA!!!!

IT'S BUBBA'S FIRST BIRTHDAY!!!

Bubba's Comfy New Bed (Bubba)

Hello, Everybody! I hope you are having a beautiful, tail wagging day! I know I am. But recently we had some really cold days. It got sooo cold, that Granny Annie dragged out all the old blankies she could find and covered up most of her gardens to keep them from freezing. brrrrrrr..... it was really cold!

After a few days, when the freezing temps passed, Granny pulled all those soft, cuddly looking blankies off of her gardens so those yummy veggies could get some sunshine. When she took those blankies off, she tossed them over onto the  hood of her car, 'cause it was right there next to the gardens. She said it was a good place for her to sit there and fold them all up.

But before she folded them up, she had to go do something else for a little bit. I stood there looking at those soft blankies, all in a nice, thick pile, on top of the car hood in the warm, shining sun.  It was just more than a sleepy, big pup could stand! I peeeeeeked around to see if Granny was coming back or if she was still busy with her other chore. hee.... hee.... she was still busy with her other chore. :)

I am so glad I am getting bigger, now. In one, big, hard jump I made it up on that hood, right in the middle of all those warm, cozy, blankies! Ooooo... they were so warm and comfy! I snuggled right on down and was sound asleep in no time. It was such a restful sleep! But darn that Granny! She woke me up with her loud giggle. I don't know what she was giggling about, but she sure was loud. I managed to go back to sleep and ended up having a good, long, nice nap, but I sure don't like my naps being disrupted. Grrrr.....

Meet Granny Annie

 Howdy, everyone! Granny Annie, here, and I am the keeper of this mob of critters. You are probably wondering, "What mob?", but you will soon see as this blog progresses. Over the next few weeks you will be meeting the 'Bunch' that will be writing this blog. And a mighty FUN bunch they are!

It all started with one female Boxer that was given to me. Then I was given a male Boxer a little later. I have been raising Boxers for awhile, now, and up until recently I never had enough puppies to fill all of my requests for them (Yes, I bred them responsibly, that is why I never had enough to fill the calls for them). Then the bottom fell out of the economy and not near so many people are wanting big dogs. I had Bubba left from one dog's last litter, and now I still have puppies left from my other dog's litter (I also ended up with a second momma Boxer). The older they get, the less likely it is that I will find a new 'forever' home for them. Then throw in the Miniature Schnauzer I rescued from certain death and a few other assorted critters, and you have a very entertaining group.

They are a fun bunch, a laugh a minute at most times, but they are a handful! Although Bubba, at the time of this post, is only about 8 months old, he is the nurturing one of the group, and ultra protective. I have never seen a male dog so ultra gentle with the little ones, while being so aggressive with intruders. He is a true treasure and I am so glad that he stayed!

You will be hearing some input from me, Granny Annie, from time to time, but for the most part, I am going to let my 'kids', the critters, write this blog (there will be more than just dogs writing). It will be very interesting, to say the least, to see what they have to say. Oh, they are an ornery bunch! So stay tuned and come back often to see what mischievous act they have gotten into next.

Have a Wonderful Day!
