It's Here...It's Here...My Goodie Exchange Package Is Here!!!

Thank You....Thank You...Dewey Dewster...

My Goodie Exchange Package came today...The mailman put it by the door this morning & I had to wait ALL day for Mom to come home to see what was in there...

Can I open it NOW Mom???

I can't wait any longer to see what's in here....I'm going in...

Look at all this stuff...I'm gonna LOVE it...

There's a Frog & an Elephant Stuffie...A green ball...A little red & a little orange ball - they will fit perfectly in my little mouth - the orange one even has LEGS, but it won't get away from me...There are some Denta Stix - which I LOVE, by the way....And, last, but certainly not least - Chicken & Liver Treats - Dewey, did you read my mind??? Chicken & Liver are my two favorite things in the world!!! Oh my, Dewey...Thank You Soooo Much!!!!

Mom, did you SEE all this stuff????

My Mom gave me one of the Denta Stix...Even before dinner...I couldn't wait...

Mom, make sure I really Thank Dewey ALOT....this stuff is GREAT...

After making quick work of the Denta Stix...About 2 minutes flat...I settled down to get aquatinted with my new Squeaky Frog...I think we are gonna become Great Friends...

Wow...This was definately worth waiting for...

My Mom has a couple videos that she is gonna try to get to work...She has alot of trouble with videos...If anyone has any tips, she would REALLY appreciate them...

Well, I'll talk later...I got alot of Squeaking & Chewing to do...

Thanks, again, Dewey...

I was Tagged...

My new friend, George tagged me for this game:



The rules are that you have to list 7 ways that you are useful, so here goes...



1) I keep the squirrels out of the garden...

2) I make sure Cousin Rosco stays away from my Mom so he doesn't bother her....Everyone says I'm "jealous"...But I'm just protecting my Mom...

3) I keep my Dad's feet warm when he is watching golf on TV....

4) I lay in the warm clothes from the dryer to keep them nice & warm until my Mom finishes folding them...This cuts down on the wrinkle factor...

5) I sit in my Look Out Spot in the window when no one is home to make sure the house is safe and that I beat Cousin Rosco to the door when my humans come home...

6) I make sure my Mom takes a couple walks a day...How fast she walks is determined by whether or not I see a squirrel by the tree in the back...

7) I always make my Mom smile...No matter what her day has been like...She walks in the house & takes one look at my adorable face & she just melts...



I'm gonna tag anyone who wants to do this...Have fun...

Squirrel Hunting...

I went Squirrel Hunting today...It's my favorite thing to do...


Heading out to the field...

Picking up the scent...

He went thru here...I just know it....

He was even playing with my big purple ball...

That's it...He's toast...

He's up there....So I waited...Come on down, you chicken...

He didn't...He never does...He's scared of me....

So...I went back & relaxed on the deck...

This is not over, Mr Squirrel....

Oh....And the best thing I did today:

Me & My Mom mailed our Goodie Package to Hershey & Kaci for the International Goodie Exchange....

I hope they like it...

I Got the Cover....

That, and Mom was too lazy to post anything else...

She says we will take pictures in the back yard tomorrow...

Hide & Seek with Cousin Rosco...

Rosco hasn't been to the "Spa" for awhile to get his nails done, so Mom put this big green thing on the chair so he doesn't rip it when he jumps up to make sure no one dares walk by the house...

So...I thought..."Let's play Hide & Seek" & I got under the big green thing...


Rosco can't find me....


I'm right here, Rosco...


He's asking my Mom to help him...

I finally came out...Well Mom told me to...She spoils all our fun...

Then me & Rosco went & "shared" the squeaky toys...

Abby xxxooo

I'm Sooo Excited....

I got my First Award...

My Good Friend, JB passed this along to me...

Thank you Sooo Much, JB...I will treasure it always...



I'd like to pass it on to: Deetz, Mr T-Bone Beasley, Girl Girl, Asta, and Sparky.

*******************************************************

I also wanted to send this Thank You to Simba for helping me out...


Simba...You are a Great Friend..

Where did she go???

I think my Mom went back to that work place...

She was home sooo long, I thought she did that "retire" thing she talks about so she could stay home & play with me...

But, I guess not yet...I was gonna stand here all day til she comes home, but my legs are getting tired...



I think I hate that work thing more than she does...

Who Knew???

I did the "What Dog Breed are You" Test...

And, guess what??? I'm a Bulldog in disquise...

Pretty good disquise, Huh???

The description sounds like me, though...



You are a Bulldog!

You may look like the troublemaker of the pack, but it turns out your tough girl mug is worse than its bite. You're really a softie, loyal to your friends and family and A-OK with meeting new pooches. Proud of your great sense of humor, you've got a whole litter of jokes you draw from to keep the mood playful and the positive energy alive. A perfect afternoon for you involves a leisurely stroll with a pal, followed by a little downtime in an easy chair with a frosty can of brew and a remote control within easy fetching distance. You shed accusations of being lazy, knowing perfectly well that you're kenneling the energy you might need for... well... something.

One last look at the Beach...

My Mom has given up on the videos...Only two of them worked...


So I will give you one last look at my vacation...I have bored you all enough with it...


One last look at the Beach before we left...


This was the lot between our house & the one next door...


Lots of Pee Mails here...I left a few myself...

My Mom wondered what these fences were for...

When the Ocean came up under the house, which is one of the videos she can't get to work...She thought maybe they were to keep Ocean Stuff from washing onto the road...We still aren't sure...

An afternoon walk on the Beach....

Mom...Me & Dad are cooking dinner, come on out & talk to us...

Bring the chicken while you are at it....

So...Now I will let the Sun Set on our vacation...

This was actually the Sun Rise, but we can pretend...

Hopefully, My Mom will come up with some new stuff now...

Videos from the Beach...Part #1

I think my Mom might have figured out the video thing...

Lazy Morning at the Ocean...I wish they would finish their coffee...I'm bored...

She finished her coffee & took me for a walk on the Beach...

I found this thing in the sand...

So I rolled on it for a minute...

Then I thought..."Oh No"...I bet she'll give me a bath when we get back in the house...

My Trip to the Ocean...

My Mom is trying to get some videos on here, too...But, she is having a hard time getting it to work...

Abby xxxooo

We're Back from the Ocean...

I wanted to tell you a little about my trip...My Mom is gonna try to put together a collection of our pictures to share with you, but she is a little computer challenged, so I'll try to help her later...Anyway, here's a little about our trip...

So we left Friday nite...We stopped here, I don't see an Ocean, do you???

Are we there yet?????

Yep....We're here...And I have a Look Out Spot right in the window by the couch...

Want to see what I'm looking at from my Look Out Spot on the Deck???

Isn't it Beautiful?????

Next Morning...I'm Exploring....

Lots of Pee Mail on the Ocean, too....Lots of other stuff too....I'll show you more later...

On our way home...She still can't keep that camera out of my face...PLEASE let me take a nap...

I'm "sorta" glad to be back...I missed all my friends...But the Ocean is really amazing...I LOVED being there...Mom is already planning our trip for next year!!!!

I'll share more when My Mom figures it out...Until then, I'm gonna try to catch up on what all my Blog Friends have been doing while I was on vacation...It may take me a few days...

Abby xxxooo

We're all ready to go to the Ocean...

So..My Mom is running around all morning putting stuff in this box...She says she is packing...She says I am going, too...Do you see anything in there that looks like it belongs to me???

She said I was going to the Ocean...She said NOTHING about a bath...

At least she covered me up with a warm towel...I was freezing...I HATE baths...

OK...Now we're talking...Looks like I'm really going...Just taking inventory...Don't want her to forget anthing...

Looks like it's all here...Let's get this stuff in the car & get on the road...

We'll be gone until next Saturday....So I won't be talking to you til I get back...Mom says she will take lots of pictures of me by the Ocean & digging in the sand...

I'll miss you guys...Talk to you when I get back...

Pee Ess....I wanted to stop by everyone's Blog to say Goodbye, but my computer wasn't working right...So...Bye to All my friends - I'm sorry I couldn't leave everyone a message...

Happy Stuffie Appreciation Day....

It's finally here...National Stuffie Appreciation Day!!!

My Mom usually has to put my Stuffies up really high, cuz Cousin Rosco plays too rough with them...I LOVE my Stuffies & I never hurt them...Really...That's the truth!!

Here they are: From Left to Right - Elephant, Squeeky Bird, Old Piggy, Squeeky Bear, & I was just introduced to New Piggy...My Mom surprised me with her for this Special Day & she says I can take her with me to the Ocean...

I'm showing Squeeky Bird some extra Love here...In the first picture you could see where Cousin Rosco had attempted Simba's Brain Surgery method & completely messed it up...

OK...Now I get to play with my New Piggy...Piggy's are my favorites...You can see Old Piggy in the background...She was assaulted by Cousin Rosco, too...But I still Love her...

Here I am trying to get the Tag off New Piggy...I need to get her ready for our trip to the Ocean...My Mom wants me to look at the camera, but I'm too busy!!!!

So, Happy National Stuffie Appreciation Day....

Thank You Mr T-Bone Beasley for letting us all know what an important day this is!!!

I'm Gwen Stefani...

My Mom can't believe how much this sounds like me...

Gwen Stefani

Style & Talent

A stuff-strutter and a trend-setter, Abby is rock star Gwen Stefani!


There's no doubt that Abby was born to entertain—her vintage look mixed with her modern style keep her public (not to mention her owner) coming back for more. Her jaw-dropping looks may mean that she's a common occurrence on the PetStar Magazine 50 Most Beautiful Pets list, but a player she is not: Abby is as loyal as they come. Despite the amount of attention she receives from devoted fans, it's not hard to see that underneath that well-groomed rock and roll coat, Abby is, after all, just a girl.

Has anyone ever heard of the "Ocean"??

My Mom says that her & My Dad & me are going to the Ocean in North Carolina...She has been talking about this for a long time, but this time she sounds really serious...She says we are going next week...It sounds like a really LONG car ride to me...But, at least I won't end up at the "Spa" this time...

She says this is where we will be staying...I sure hope there is a house attached to this thing...It looks like fun for the daytime, but I don't want to sleep out there...I'll get alot of sand between my toes...

If anyone knows any more about this "Ocean" thing, please let me know...
