Da French Invasion - Part 3

Being da good Host dat I am, I decided to take Messi to my favorite place.   You probably already guessed.

Messi, dat's da ocean.
Go ahead and get your paw wet.

I introduced him to da beach.

Ya see, being a city boy, he has never been to da beach so I had to re-assure him dat it was loads of fun.

He put his paws in da ocean and just loved it!

Look at me at da beach!

Let's go dis way!    
I see lots of other pups down da beach.
Let me introduce you to dem.   Dey have probably never met a frenchman.

Messi and his peeps.

Messi had such da grrrrrreat time dat he even asked his peeps if dey would let him visit me again.  He want to try his paws at surf'in next time.

Messi had to fly back to dat big city (sigh).  I will miss my little sweet frenchie furfriend.  Au Revoir Messi!


Oh, oh, oh....  I almost forgot dat tonight is New Year's Eve.  I hope you have fun pawtying wiff all of your friends.

Now, as a Blogville Pawlice officer, I think dat it's my duty to remind you to not drink and drive.

Invasion of da French

I am soooooooo excited to tell you all about my Christmas visitor.

Grrrrrrrr.... woof!   Let me in!

Messi flew all da way from NY to NC, just to have Christmas wiff ME!  Wow.... I've never ridden on a big bird plane.

He came wiff Aunty D's son (dat's Mom's nephew) and his new wife.  Dar da ones dat got married in NYC and in Nepal.

So you are probably wondering how he got his name.   Can you guess?

Hint:  He is a pawsome ball handler.
He can even carry da ball on da side of his mouth.
Maybe it's just stuck on his tooth.

No.... it is not because he makes a mess (even though he did pee in da house 2-3 times).

He is named after some famous soccer player.  

Now, Messi is a city/concrete boy so at first he didn't know what to do in my yard.   He tried to play ball on da patio butt I showed him dat it is much more fun to run around and play in da grass.

Zoommmmmmm.....

He's a pretty smart frenchie (for a 1 1/2 yrs old) and he caught on fast butt it took like 87 try before I got him to play "chase me" (my favorite game).   For da record..... I am way much faster dan him.

I also taught him all sorts of fun stuff (like tug-a-war-stuffie) and he was AMAZED at ALL of my toys.   We did have one casualty.

Ooops!

My new Christmas toy (da yellow Giraffe from Jack)  kinda lost his tail and is now in da stuffie hospital.    Maybe Messi was trying to make my Giraffe look more like him (hehehehe).

Once I got used to his accent, we became Best Pals.

If we sit real good, my Mom will give us a cookie.

I'll tell ya more about Messi's visit tomorrow.
Stay tuned for da French Invasion (Part 2).

Me and da Dog Whisperer

We recently had a couple of intruders.   Yep.... Mom's brother Bob and his wife stopped by after dey had been at the beach for a week.   Dey were on dar way back home to da big city and stopped in to visit us (since dey were in our hood).

When I met dem, I didn't let Bob pet me.   He was not happy.   Ya see, he fancies himself as da Dog Whisper.    Mom told him dat I am a bit wary of men and dat it would take a LONG time for me to make nice wiff him.

Whata ya want?

Now, Bob's wife said that ALL Dogs just love Bob and he would have me eating out of his hand in no time.   (Mom just laughed.)

I wasn't having any of dis and every time Bob tried to pet me, I ran away to my safe place (under da foodable table).

Secret Weapon of da Dog Whisperer

Den "Bob Whisperer" ask Mom to give him a spoon wiff his secret weapon on it.   He said dat NO dog could resist it/him.

(Mom just laughed again.)

"Ranger.... want some Peanut Butter?"

NO.   BACK OFF!

And... dat's how I put "Bob da Dog Whisperer" in his place.   

Bob da Dog Whisperer:  0   

Ranger:  1

All I can say is dat if he was a TRUE Dog Whisperer, he would have known dat Scotties are not your average dog.

Da Reunion

Big news..... I went over to Finn and Wally's for a playdate and they invited dar neighbors to join us.   Ya see.... one of dem just turned 3 and she has a Birfday on March 15th (just like me).

OMD.... she is chasing me and wants to smell my butt!

Mom, Mom, Mom...... she says dat she is my sister! 
We got da same parents and were both born in Raeford, NC.
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrooooooooo!   

Meet my little sister Bea.  
Isn't she pretty in her pick collar?
She looks just like me but is a bit smaller.
She also has a shorter beard (her Mom has it trimmed so she doesn't look like a boy).

We had great fun, wiff Wally, Finn, and her adopted brother Tosh.   Tosh is also a scot but has blonde furs.

We all ran and chased each other all around da yard.   I must admit dat I am da fastest of crew and love being chased.

After all dat running, it was time for some TREATS !

Look at how polite I am.... waiting for my turn.

Hello Finn & Wally's Mom..... can me and my sister Bea a have some more treats?

Here we are posing for our family portrait.
Miss Bea was more interested in watching da other boys.
She thinks it's her job to keep dem all in-line.

Take 2 (dat's me on da left and my sis on da right)

Now I know what you're thinkin.   Isn't she a sweety?  
All I can say is, "don't be fooled by dat pretty face".   Miss Bea is one tough cookie and was determined to show us boys, "Who's da Boss of dis Terrier crew".

Every time I turned around, my sister was trying to push me down and pin me to da chair/floor.

Come to find out.... she dreams of being a WWE Diva (a professional wrestler).
She wants her wrestler name to be "Boomer Bea da Scot" and
she likes to practice whenever she gets da chance.

Yikes.... she's jumpin on my back again and tryin to "pin" me.
"Dis is da last time dat I'm going to tell you..... Get off me Bea!"

Enough was enough and we had some serious words about it.
Isn't sibbling bickering grand?   I loved every min of it.

Glad we got dat sorted.

Eventually it was time to say goodbye.  Sigh.

"Boomer Bea da Scot" and her family are moving to Virginia to pursue her dream career.
Look for her on Wrestle Mania TV.

Thank you Wally and Finn, for arranging dis reunion wiff my sister.

Love you Bea and good luck in Virginia.   

I will always be your #1 fan.   Stay tough little Sis!

Weekend Playpal

Guess what?

Alana (Mom & Aunty D's niece) visited Me this past weekend.

Meet Alana.
She came to play with ME!!!!!

She visited me last year too (when I was a wee little laddie).

It was love at 1st lick. (a year ago)

This time we got to do lots of 'big boy' stuff.

We watched TV together.  
What can I say… we're both TV junkies.
Maybe she should join my support group.

I also showed her my jumpy things and tunnel.   We had a pawsome great time playing together in my yard.   Oh, oh, oh…. and she gave me lots of yummy treats after I came running out of the tunnel.

Arrrrrrrrrrooooooooo.   Let's go again.

But best of all….

… she gave me lots of love & cuddles.

I hope her Dad brings her come back again really soon.    Oh yeah… did I forget to tell ya dat her Dad came too?   He is pretty cool and has a beard  (like me), but had a sore paw (toe/foot) so I mostly played with Alana.    He did try to teach me a new word.  'Squat'.  Good thing dat Mom straighten'd him out and told him that 'I Don't Do Squat'.  You got dat right Mom!   I only do 'Sit', 'Down', 'Come' (sometimes), and 'Dinnertime'.

I hope y'all had a grrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat weekend too.

Peeeeeeeees.   This card is for my sweetie, Mollie, who hurt her pretty little paws.

Donna's Home

One of my favorite times of day is when Aunty D come home from work.   Mom shouts "Donna's Home" and I run to the front door.   If I'm in the backyard and I hear her car… I run to the back door and bark to come in the house and then I race to the front door.

There she is !!!!

Yippy!   She's coming in to play with me!

Sometimes she even brings me a pressie.   Look what I got.

Woohoo!

BEACH BLANKET BINGO

Today's Call-Out is:   B - Crab

Don't forget to see Stuart's bingo call-out of the day.

Dancing with Aunty D

I like to dance.

Aunty D, will you dance with me?

I just grab hold of Aunty D's legs and she slowly moves them side to side and I dance on my hind legs.   Pretty impressive, don't you think?  So far I only know the side step.

Hey Mom… instead of laughing and taking pictures...how about putting on some music for us.
Then I can dance to the music.

I like "Puppy Love" by Paul Anka.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuG_fTwoUoU

Maybe if I get really good I can be on "Dancing with the Stars".   I do have my Star Puppy certificate so I'm already a Star.  Now I just need to to learn some more steps.

Chow for now.

Woof Woof Woof !!!!  

Yesterday I was contacted by some of my relatives and saw pictures of my doggie grandparents (Carrleigh and Piper).

Yippy !!!  More family.  

Hello Family & Friends!

It looks like they live in the Blue Ridge Mountains.    It is probably much cooler there than it is here.   Maybe Mom will take me there someday.

Just wanted to send a big Bark-Out to all of my family and new friends from Rocky Creek Scotties.  You can visit their blog (where they talk all about me) here ==> http://rockycreekscottieadventures.blogspot.com/    They even have a photo of my doggie   Mom (Scarlet) when she was just a puppy like me.  We sure are a cute clan.

Thank you for all the wonderful comments on my blog!   I can't believe how many hits I got yesterday.   It was GRRRRRRREAT !!!

My New BPP

Yippy!!!!   Alana came to visit with me for a week.  

She is my new BPP (Best Puppy Pal).

Alana & Me cuddling.

I just love giving her kisses.

She is sooooooooooooooooooooo much fun to play with.

I just LOVEEEE her.  Isn't she beautiful?  We're going to have a woofing good time this week.

Family Reunion

Mom got out a suitcase today.

Yippy!!  Packing.   Fun.

I get to go visit my doggy parents and my breeder for a week.   We are having a scottie family reunion!  Woof! Woof!

So I will not be blogging of a week or so but will tell you all about my trip when I get back.

I can't wait to see my doggie Mom & Dad.   Wait till they see how big I am (7.5 lbs) and how fast I can run.

doggie-Dad

doggie-Mom

Aren't they good looking?  Did I tell you that my doggie Dad comes from a long line of Royalty (Champions)?   Maybe I should have people call me Sir Ranger.

Now I just have to see if I can get all my toys in this bag.   I may need a bigger bag!

This toy is big like me!

I'll put this one in the corner.  

Maybe I'll put it in this corner.  This packing stuff is hard work.   I may have to nap soon.

Rocky Days are here again!

I really like Rocky.  He may be old and slow… but he is one cool dog.  He is tall, focused, and I really want to be his buddy.

I wonder what he is going to do next?

Rocky is the "King of the Household".   I just love watching him.  Did I tell you how cool he is?

He keeps his eye on me too.  Maybe he will be my Dogfather.  Sometimes I bark at him, but he is not much of a talker ….  a dog of few barks.  

Rocky is better than I am at climbing the steps into the house.   So far I can only make it up one of the three steps to get back inside the house.  I'm still in training, have short legs and only weigh 6 lbs now.   I am not at my climbing weight yet.  One day I will make it to the top.   

Here is a video of me & Rocky in the backyard.  Oops… for some reason I can't upload the video.   I'll have to ask Mom about what I can do to get it on my blog.  

   ---->  Insert video here <---

I like to jump at him and grab his jingley dog tags and floppy ears.  

Have a barking good day!
