Space - - - - the Final Frontier....

Ok, first things first, a BIG thank you to my new BFF & hero, Mango for all his detective work & being smarterer than me & gettin pictures, ACTUAL pictures of the whole, scaryful ordeal! Mango, you rock!!

Now, please for ya'll that might be scared real easy, beware, this is not a pretty tale, I mean it's not like I went to Disney World or nothin!

Here we were, at the Fairgrounds, getting ready for the Dog Show, waitin on all the other dogs to get there in their houses on wheels. I was mindin my own business, really I was & I heard this strange whirrin sound. It sounded like a big, giant bumblebee, it rocked our house on wheels!! There was a big flash of light that blinded me & I couldn't see nothin.

Then out of that bright light I heard a voice roar "YOU, what planet is this??" Well, how am I supposed to know that? So I said, "I think it's Planet Bull Terror, what planet are you lookin for?" Well, that musta really made this voice mad, cause he was all like...."I ask the questions around here, not you! Q.U.I.E.T.!! you Bull Terror you!!"

Well I was!! I didn't say nothin else!! That roarin light was worse than the boogeymans & his fambly that hides in our backyard!! That dude was the scaryfullestest thing I've ever not seen! All hidin in that light, blindin me & yellin at me. (**shivers**) gives me the heebie-jeebies just thinkin about it again!

Next thing I know, I'm strapped in this chair & bein poked at & looked at & touched. I thought to myself, "Self, I said, you'll be lucky to make it out of this alive" And I said to the Powers that Be "I promise, I will never, ever be a brat to my siblins again, I will be good & I'll always eat all my brussel sprouts, I SWEAR!" I don't know how long I was strapped in that chair, but it musta been a long, long time. Dawgmom said I aka Pappy Egg-Head Alien did all that bad stuff all weekend, so it musta been for a couple of days. I tried to tell DawgMom & DawgDaddy I didn't need no microchip to tell me who I was, but they were determined to stick me with that needle & shoot a chip in me. All that did was tell those creechtures where to find me, I just know it, so teckneckly it's DawgMom's fault that happened, not mine!

Can someone tell me how DawgMom, DawgDaddy, Aunt Karen, Uncle Jerry & them other Bullmastiff peoples with them did NOT see that ship flyin around above them?? Well, I know why.... They were so busy stuffin their faces at the Bullmastiff cookout party, they didn't even notice it! Real bright, huh? That big thing, right above their heads & all they see is foodables! Stuffin their faces & drinkin beer & duck farts. That would have given them a clue about the Pappy Egg-Head Alien! (*DawgMom note: Duck Farts are 1 shot of Kahlua, 1 shot of Crown Royal & 1 shot of St. Brendans Irish Cream Liqueur, mixed with milk on ice)

Them weirdo, yellin from the light creechtures think they're funny too, they think since I have an egg-head I must be an egg-head. Well, hello, it was the Pappy Egg-Head Alien that was bein all stoopid all weekend, not me! Check him out....

I don't know how Mango got those pictures & frankly I don't care how he got them, I'm just glad he had his detectives workin in East TN that day so he could save my good name & prove to DawgMom it wasn't my fault! It got me off groundashun & outta perculatory & that's all that matters to me!

I think I'm gonna go tell my story to these people & get the word out that Tennessee has more than just hillbillies in these hills, there's scareyful bein thingies here too, so BE CAREFUL!! And another thing....Where the heck was Will Smith all last weekend? I coulda used his help!

We love Awards!

I showed DawgMom the pictures from Mango & 'splained everything & she 'prologized to me & said I can use the pooter all I want to today, but first we have some awards we have to post about. She said if I posted them, then I could have the pooter as long as I don't go buyin things at doggie stores!! So here goes, we're sorry we're late gettin them on our bloggie, lazy secretary & all ya know.

Pappy's hiney, part 1

DawgMom here, since I don't think the Bullies will get the "true' feeling of how the weekend went out there, I'm posting the story of our weekend at the dog show. (above picture of one of the groups of RV's during a cook-out on Sat. night)

The week leading up to the show, should have been an indication of how the weekend was going to go, if I had only paid attention. This will probably end up in 2 installments because sooooo much stuff went on. I rarely drink anything, but I did have a drink on Sat night! There, I said it and I ain't takin it back!

We started off getting out of the driveway and on the way to the fairgrounds late, should have been there Thurs. night, but things at our auto repair shop we're crazy and by the time DawgDaddy got out of there, it was way too late to head out of here. Couple that with the fact that DawgDaddy had the RV at the shop 2 days of the week working on it, so I wasn't able to get it loaded and ready to go during the week. So we finally got the RV loaded with hooman & dog food, ex-pens, extra crates, extra beds, clothes and the dogs VERY early Friday morning and arrived at the fairgrounds at 12:15 pm. The RV's had already started coming in so we parked, plugged in, got the a/c running and started parking other RV's. Thus begins the crazy weekend.......

See that beautiful Bull Terrier head?? You would think there were more brains in there than the average dog since there is so much extra room there, wouldn't you? Well, not so with that Bullie boy last weekend. Somewhere between our driveway and the fairgrounds, a mere 25 miles, that beautiful boy in that picture lost his brain. It disappeared, no where to be found, not even an inkling of a brain was present all weekend!!

Apparently, he has NEVER been on a lead, much less gone down and back or around OR stacked himself up for the judge. My mistake, I could have sworn I had taught him to do that and he had it down perfectly! I must have been dreaming that, because when I took him out of the RV, instead of a Bull Terrier on that lead, I had a bucking bronco, bouncing all over the place acting as if I were choking the life out of him! Even resorting to screaming!

He also has never seen another dog! Wow! Who have I been when watching play with other dogs at home? Was that really my Pappy that I was watching at home, or some little brindle alien that had taken over his body during the night??

As if that wasn't enough, he barked THE. ENTIRE. WEEKEND.!!! His voice is coming back, but for a week, I thought I had a hound in the house instead of a terrier. I mean to tell you it was non-stop barking!! By Sunday, even the other dogs were getting sick of him and Darla was determined to give him an attitude adjustment, Darla-style. We have all the crates strapped into the RV in place of the dining table so that everyone can go with us. So they were stuck listening to him while we were out parking motorhomes.

(That picture was taken in Gettysburg, when we went to the Nationals.) You can't see the whole set-up because it's hard to get the right angle, but if you see the blue crate on the bottom, that is where Feather lives for the weekend, Darla is on her left, closest to the bed, and Pappy is under the little crate (Chief, the Crested) right in front, to Feather's right, which means he can see out the door when it's open. So we switched Darla and Pappy around so he couldn't see as much. Didn't help. He still barked his fool head off. The only thing we can figure is that there were a couple of German Pinschers in the RV next door to us that were in season and he is 15 months old. Old enough to know he is supposed to do something about that smell, but still too young to know what that something is, so it turned into bratty frustration, like a teenage boy. Thankfully, the Diamonds with the German Pinschers have been been showing for years and we're very understanding about the whole "noise" thing. They even thought it was funny at times. Glad someone did, because I didn't. I kid you not, that monster could be heard all around the area!

I think he picked up his long lost brain on the trip back home and he is back to his normal self now that we are back home, and I hope by the time we head out again, he will remember what he is there for. Having Bull Terriers means you are willing to subject yourself to embarrassment at ANY given time, it's part of the deal, but this boy knows how to take it to the limits and really make me want to crawl under the nearest rock sometimes.

Showing his hiney is NOT part of the showing process, but it was this weekend. Needless to say, we didn't go in the ring, there was no way in hades I was going to take him in the show building and have him create havoc for everyone! I'm sure there would have been alot of laughs at my expense, but I wasn't about to oblige.

Now, the rest of the dogs did great! They have all been through these weekends before and as long as they have us around, they are content to enjoy the sights and sounds of the show. LizzaBella was a little bothered by the whole scene, but I think alot of that had to do with Pappy and his shenanigans. She did have to wear her "Frankie-stein" collar all weekend but she is back to her normal self as well now that we are home.

There you have the watered down version of Pappy's weekend. Stay tuned for the rest of the story.....power issues with some of the RV's, copperheads on the grounds, fireworks being set off on Sat. night (trust me NOT good with a fairground full of dogs!) storms, exhibitors arguing with one another, exhibitors arguing with US.......

Pappy showed his HINEY!

Instead of showing like he was supposed to. DawgMom said he lost his brain somewheres between home & the dog show. More about that later, right now, DawgMom has to go back to work. We'll be back later with the whole story.

We're Outta Here!

We're off to the dog show! Be back first of the week!!


All the TN Bull Terrors ^..^

Guess who's 3 today??

Me! Me! ME!!

DawgMom says she's gonna go to the Pet Store & find me some good treats & a new toy! I can't go with her cause even tho I love my sissies ('specially Feather) & my brother Pappy, I don't really love other dogs. So goin to the Pet Store with DawgMom is not fun for any-bully. DawgMom stresses too much & she can't seem to figure out I'm just protectin her for cryin out loud. But.....no matter.....It's my Birfday!! And I get pressies!!!

If I can get DawgMom to stop workin on them dumb lamps long enough to take my pikchurs, we'll post 'em for ya'll! Thank dog she's almost done with them, just a couple more to go!

I'll be back later with pikchurs & let ya'll know what I got!! I hope I get one of them new frisbees or fetch toys to play with!!

Awards & Tree Rats!!

Hey every-bully! It's me, the Papster! I finally get to play on the bloggie a while! WOOHOO!! DawgMom said I could have my turn if I promised to tell every-bully about our new awards first, then I could talk about whatever I wanted to talk about! So, here I is!!

The first award I'm gonna tell ya'll about is from Bolo, our Sharpie friend and from Chase, our Puggle friend! How cool is that? Both of them thought about us at the same time! (*wait..what? Oh, DawgMom says Bolo is a Shar PEI, not a sharpie, she says a sharpie is a pen. WHATEVER! I know Bolo is not a pen, sheesh, I'm not stupid ya know!) ANYWHO... This award is a "Paw"some blog award! Cool, huh? That means Bolo & Chase think our blog is pawsome! Thank you guys very much!

So here are the "rules" that go with it, even tho we don't care for rules, we'll obey these cuz it's just cool to have this award!

This award is presented to those dog bloggers out there who know the meaning of GREATNESS. Their blogs are consistently interesting, funny, or informative. Their KINDNESS is extended to others without expectation of it’s return, and their FRIENDSHIP inspires others to do EXTRAORDINARY things.

These are the blogs you can’t wait to read everyday. In short, they are AWE-INSPIRING, full of wonder, and simply PAWsome!

Pass this award on to 4 others who you feel exemplify a “Paw”some Blog, and leave a note saying why you think they deserve the Pawsome Award!”

We're gonna pass this award to our friends that are involved in rescue!

1) Mona at Mona and the Mommy Too

2) Jake & Fergie at Two Special Wires

3) Biloxi at Biloxi's Blue No More

4) Our newest friend, Lucky Luke

Please go visit these wonderful dogs & their hoomans that have such big hearts, that's what makes them so "Paw"some!!

Now, ya'll know we fuss about DawgMom bein lazy & not lettin us blog when we want to AND about her bein so self-centered all the time, but we really do have a pretty good DawgMom. I mean, she feeds us AWESOME, PAWSOME foodables! She gives us lovin & scratchin & belly rubbies all the time, she really is a good DawgMom, but she just aggravates us sometimes cuz she won't let us do what WE want to do. Look what she did for us even tho we were bein kinda bratty lately. She gave us an award so we could pass it along to our doggie friends! THEN, the very next day, Woodrow, Sweetie & MJ gave us the very same award! How cool is that??

So this award says....

1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link.

2) Pass the award to up to 15 other blogs that you've newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

Now, we are going to give this to some of our friends that are not really "newly discovered" but they deserve it anyways.

2) Asta that silly WFT

3) Joe Stains & his brother Tanner

4) Coco, the Princess & her sisters

DawgMom has been FEEDIN them!! No wonder they keep hangin around! Can ya'll believe that? Feedin the little boogers!

Well, DawgMom has a kennel club board meetin tonight so she's sayin I have to get off the 'pooter so she can find her minutes, don't know why she don't just use the cuckoo clock on the wall to get the minutes, but......

Before I close, make sure you go visit Sprinkles & sign up for her 2009 Dog Swap, ya'll can sign up until May 10.

Later taters,

OOPS, DawgMom messed up

DawgMom messed up when she was postin a few minutes ago, she wrote up a post for her bloggie, "Tails" of Groomer Angie and asadenally put it on our bloggie at first. So if sumpin' showed up in yer Google Reader or in yer follower list that we posted, ya'll will have to go to DawgMom's blog to see what it was all about. She found this neato blog swap last night that she was writin about.

Sorry DawgMom confused anybody, ya'll know how silly she can be sometimes. Oh & we have a couple of awards to post about too! WOOHOO!!
