Too Darn Hot!!!

2009-08-06T21:03:00.003-05:00

You know it's hot when you catch a squirrel doin' this! I couldn't get him to jump around and run for nothin', he just laid there. And he was on a low branch too! I could of had him!

Lets Help Bring Skylar Home

2009-08-01T19:28:00.002-05:00

Hey everybody---please scroll all the way down to the bottom of our page and watch the slide show about this beautiful pup named Skylar that someone stole! Maybe you have seen her. It would be a great help if you would copy and paste this to your blog too so we can get the word out and get this beautiful girl home! She is a mommy and her puppies really miss her!

We've Been Busy!

2009-05-31T22:05:00.005-05:00

I am finally giving Mom a chance to help update our blog. They just got back from Annapolis MD for our oldest furless brothers graduation from the Naval Academy. Ozzie and I got to stay at the vet's. We were not real thrilled about that. We got to stay in a cage for twelve days while they were in the lap of luxury. Not exactly fair if you ask me. I am going to let her share a few pictures of their week with you. Ozzie and I are very proud of our oldest furless brother! Congratulations Ensign Justin Garrett Jacks!
Oh, by the way, just so you know, that house is where the parents were chilling while we were living in that cage at the vet's office!

Weekend Blahs...

2009-05-01T19:49:00.003-05:00

I am doing my best to keep myself out of trouble while trying not to be completely bored out of my brain. Rocky started up with his darned old seizures again last night so he is not feeling at all like playing with me tonite. Life is just not complete without a rousing round of bitey face! I hope that he feels good enough to play again by in the morning. At least it was a whole month between seizures this time! Hope all you pups are having good weekends!
Later,
Ozzie

Goodbye, Grandpa...

2009-03-28T21:46:00.003-05:00

We are very sad to report that our Grandpa passed away today. But we know that he is in a much better place and will never have any more pain. Thanks to all of you who remembered him in your prayers. Please continue to pray for our grandma, she is really going to miss him!
Love,
Ozzie, Rocky and Mom

No Fair!

2009-03-22T19:38:00.005-05:00

I don't think it is fair that Rocky got a nice new collar! So, I took care of the problem!
We would also like to think all of you for your continued prayers for our Grandpa. He is a long way from being "out of the woods", but was a little improved today! We will get a report from his lung doctor tomorrow and will get you an update!
Later,
Ozzie

Please Pray for Our Grandpa

2009-03-19T19:54:00.003-05:00

This is not the best picture of our Grandpa, he really is a happy fellow when he is feeling well. We just wanted to share a visual so you would know who we were talking about. Grandpa is very sick and in the hospital. His COPD has gotten very bad. We appreciate your prayers for him and our Grandma. She is really having a tough time dealing with his illness. Mom will try to update the blog over the weekend and let you all know how things are going.
Thanks for your prayers!
Ozzie, Rocky, and Mom (Tammy)

Updates and other news...

2009-03-12T20:00:00.003-05:00

My mom wanted me to be sure and tell you all that she very much appreciated all the good thoughts and prayers you sent up for our Grandpa. He is doing much better today and will probably be moved out of ICU and into a regular room. He may be at the hospital for a few more days though.
When she got back from sitting with Grandpa at the hospital today guess where I got to go? The V-E-T! Can you believe that? I didn't even get any fair warning either. It just happened! Dad was petting me and said "Hey, what's that on Rocky's hind quarter? And Mom said "What?" and then the next thing I know BAM! I'm on the examining table! The spot didn't look quite like the picture shown here when Mom took me in. It was just a raised spot with all the hair off of it. It was a fairly large spot and Mom was concerned it might be ring worm. The doc said it could be, but it didn't test positive for that. He gave me some antibiotics and some cream to put on it though. He said he wanted to see me back if it doesn't get better or if I get more spots. Then he will do a biopsy...
I did get a new collar out of the deal though. When Mom was getting ready to take me to the vet she couldn't find a collar here at the house that fit me. Can you believe she had the nerve to ask the Vet's assistant if they had any big collars that would fit my "fat" neck? The nice lady was quick to correct Mom though. She told her my neck was not "fat", it was muscular. So there! Anyways, I will keep you guys posted on what happens with this spot and I will also give you updates on my Grandpa! Thanks again for all your thoughts & prayers!
Later,
Rocky

We are still here!

2009-03-11T19:26:00.002-05:00

We told Mom that one post a month was not gonna cut it! This is getting ridiculous! We made her take a fresh picture of us to put up so that you could see we were still alive anyways!
Things have been pretty busy around here lately though, so we will cut her a little slack. Our dear Grandpa is back in the hospital. This is the second time since the first of the year. He has COPD. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers for us.
In better news though, our oldest furless brother will be home for Spring Break in a couple of days. We are really looking forward to getting to spend some time with him. Hopefully Mom will get some pictures to post while he is home this time. Geez, it's like pulling teeth...
Before we go, we want to know if any other pup out there uses that PediPaws thingy. We got one from Santa (no cool treats this year) but we haven't used it too much yet. If any of you have one do you like it? The jury is still out here.
Well, we will catch you later. With any luck we will be talking to you again before APRIL!
Ozzie & Rocky

Whatever....

2009-02-11T23:25:00.002-06:00

Mom says she would have more time to keep up with our blog if I would behave myself and act like a gentleman. She's been whining because she had to spend the better part of the evening taking her cd collection out of their cases and putting them in her big cd case. I can't help she kept her cd's stacked in my favorite leg hiking spot, geez...
Later,
Rocky
(Note from angry Mom---my cd collection was stacked (neatly I might add) on the lower shelf of my stereo stand! He needs to get some manners...)

Happy New Year!

2009-01-01T10:37:00.002-06:00

Mom wouldn't get us any of those cool horns to blow, so I had to improvise!

Special Delivery!

2008-12-21T21:36:00.002-06:00

We were so excited Friday afternoon! We got a package in the mail from our budz Waylon and Willie! Just look at all the cool stuff in that box! We just love our new stuffies. Well, in all honesty we have loved the Santa stuffie a little too much but that other stuffie is still "hanging in there". We have had the bestest time hiding and finding the Milk Bones too! Do you see that little figurine? It looks just like a little tiny one of us! Our Mom said that the Trail Mix was awesome too. She wouldn't share with us so we told her she couldn't have any of our Milk Bones either! Thanks again Waylon and Willie! You and your family are the bestest!

Season's Stainings!

Mom finally got around to putting up our Christmas tree tonight. She and our youngest furless brother hung all the ornaments and I supervised while Ozzie enjoyed a long winter's nap. They decorated the tree with the "old" ornaments this year instead of the standard Hallmark collection. Our youngest furless brother insists he likes it this way so much better. Most of these old ornaments were from our Mom's Aunt's collection. We don't really care too much about all that though. We are just ready for Santa Paws to come and bring us stuff!

Rocky

Thanksgiving

2008-11-28T16:09:00.003-06:00

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Lots of company and lots of good food. We pretty much stayed out from underfoot, though. Ozzie pulled a muscle the day before and was feeling under the weather and I had a bout with seizures earlier in the week. Mom said the only good thing about us not feeling up to par was that we did not get over exuberant with the older guests. They all have thin skin (ie, Grandpa, Grandma) and we tend to leave "marks" when we show affection. Hope that you all had the bestest day ever. Here are a few pictures from our celebration...

Thanks Petra!

2008-11-18T11:44:00.003-06:00

Our sweet little friend Petra just gave us this really cool award and we really appreciate it! Thanks a million---we think you are pretty special too!

I am a wild & crazy hunter!

2008-11-13T23:42:00.002-06:00

I do not have any pictures to put with this post---Mom says this is probably a good thing. Stop with the lecturing already Mom, I get it! You remember that picture she posted a few weeks back of that wicked looking creature on our fence??? Well, joy of joys, I have discovered a bunch of miniature critters in my back yard that look just like that one! They are little and they hiss at me and they make me C-R-A-Z-Y! When Mom let me out last night I came back in the house covered in little black bugs! Mom was muttering something about "fleas" and I got two baths! Can you believe that??? Anyways when she talked to Dad this morning he picked up some flea spray for the yard. He called Mom at work and told her something about finding a dead possum in the yard and that I probably killed it and that is where the fleas came from. I am not saying if I did or I didn't. But anyways I sure tried to get me another one of those critters when Mom let me out while ago! I had it trapped up against the house behind a flower pot! Mom was yelling something about rabies and Momma possums and she made me come back in the house! No fun... Those little buggers better watch out!

Rocky

I demand equal time---it's only fair!

2008-10-27T22:36:00.003-05:00

Mom took these pictures about a whole week before she "captured the moment" with Rocky's big rat! I don't think Rocky even ever knew that thing was anywhere around! Geesh! Look at me here. I have this huge killer squirrel up in the tree! Can't you tell that he is just shaking like a leaf! I am the most fierce squirrel hunter on my street! This guy is just lucky that I am not snuggling up on a squirrel skin rug right now!
Later,
Ozzie

Yikes!

2008-10-24T22:40:00.004-05:00

OMD! Look at this picture! This huge creature is perched on the fence in my backyard as I speak! Mom doesn't even think I was aware of its presence. She went out back to call me inside and just happened to glance over and see it! Only about 5 feet away from her! As you can see in the other picture she tucked me safely inside before she attempted to "capture the moment"!

A Must Read!

2008-09-30T16:33:00.002-05:00

You all need to go and read this story! It is great to see someone who will risk it all for a faithful friend! This story made our day!

Update on Storm...

2008-09-14T11:04:00.002-05:00

Just wanted to let all of our friends know that we are safe and sound down here around Corpus Christi, Texas. Things did not turn out so good for our neighbors around Houston and Galveston though...After watching the news and seeing all the damage they received we truly feel blessed! We dodged a big bullet!
Don't know if we will be blogging again this week. The parents are going up to the Naval Academy to visit our oldest fur brother and they are making us stay at the mean old vet's! We will catch you when we all get back!
Ozzie & Rocky

Expecting company!

2008-09-10T20:58:00.007-05:00

We are so excited! Ozzie is resting up and I am waiting by the front door. Mom told us that Ikes is coming for a visit! We can hardly wait!
Note from mom---I hate to disappoint the boys but they are badly mistaken. Ike is coming for a visit, but not the Ike they are expecting! We will probably be forced away from our blogging for a while. We will be hunkered down at my parents house waiting out the storm. Hopefully there won't be any major problems and we will be back on line soon!
On another note we wanted to let everyone know that Grandpa is back home and doing much better! Tanika was very happy to see him!

Update on our Grandpa

2008-08-28T11:38:00.002-05:00

Our Grandpa is doing much better. Thanks for all your prayers and good thoughts! He is currently in the rehab section at the hospital. They say he will be there at the very least for twenty days. Our Grandma told our Mom today that they allow canine visitors there. Grandpa's little dacshund Tanika will be very glad to hear that news! Mom hopes to go along on that trip so that she can take a few pictures to post on our blog. That will be some reunion because Tanika is Grandpa's little shadow!

Need to get caught up...

2008-08-21T21:07:00.003-05:00

Mom has been away for the past few days so we have not been able to blog or keep up with our friends blogs. Our Grandpa (Mom's dad) is in the hospital. He is in the intensive care unit fighting a lung infection and all the other nasty side effects of emphysema. We hope that he will be home soon. Mom is home right now because he is doing a little better. She says she is tired and will try to help us with our blog more later.
Oh and I haven't had any of those nasty seizures for almost a week now. Keep all your paws and fingers crossed and please say a prayer for our Grandpa...
Rocky
