Life's a Beach!

We had a really great weekend! Daddy and Mummy surprised us by taking us to a local dog beach! Here is me and Hampton running towards the water.

Hampton spent most of the time sniffing rocks and walking around with Mummy (to each their own! *yawn*) while Daddy and I played fetch (fun! *happy feet*).

Daddy threw t.b. in the water for me a few times. I usually don't like going in the water but I couldn't just let t.b. float away! I'm glad though that he didn't throw the ball too far. He knows I only like getting my legs wet.

Here is another shot of me and t.b. I am a happy girl!

We had a great day!

Our pal Cokie the Cat has started a fun anipal photo hunt! The photo hunt is a blog hop for anipals only - each week there is a new theme. Check out the details on Cokie's website! This week's theme features our favorite toys!

ZuZu says:
Regular readers of our blog and comic will know that I is CRAZY about my t.b. (tennis ball). I am also known for getting 'happy feet' when I plays ball with Daddy, see my video in a previous blog post by clicking here.

supersized t.b.

Today, Daddy brought home a SUPERSIZED t.b. for us! I immediately ran over to ZuZu to show her.

I thought ZuZu would spaz out because of how much she lubs tennis balls and this one is SUPERSIZED! And I was right! She just lubbed it!

We had a lot of fun with SUPERSIZED t.b., we played lots of tug-o-war:

I think playing with a SUPERSIZED toy makes you even more tired than playing with a regular one. After all our playing we ended up having a SUPERSIZED nap. ZuZu was so sneepy she even let me nap with her (a bonus!).

Thank you Daddy for our new toy!

update on the neighbour dog!

I previously blogged about how Hammie and I like to spy on the new neighbour dog aka Heinz 57 (read about it here). Despite all our efforts of howling and whining at her from the window we get no response. Today however, we were out in the backyard and Heinz 57 was in hers too!

Hammie did his best to get her attention:

But it seems that she likes her privacy and had no interest in us. :(

We're not going to give up though! We hope we will be able to win her over someday! Until then, we will have to keep admiring our neighbour dog from afar *sigh*

my adventures with goofy - part 1

Ok, so when M&D came back from Disneyland they brought back Goofy and Dumbo for me and ZuZu.

We was so excited about our new stuffed toys BUT we soon found out that these are not for shredding! Mummy said something about memories or something and went so far as to hide Goofy from me (I just could not keep my paws off him, can you blame me?)! Anyway, being the super sniffer that I am, I found Goofy's hiding spot!! Mummy tried to hide him up on top of some boxes but I found him!

Here is me climbing on top of a shoe rack behind Mummy's golf clubs just to get him:

Success!

I thought I was in the clear but then Ruh Roh!...sadly I got caught. Umm...no Mummy, those aren't my drool stains!

Mummy gave me a short lecture and I promised I wouldn't do it again but 5 minutes later...here is me looking for Goofy again....Hey, where did he go??!!

Until the next adventure,

i've discovered that blueberries are one of my favorite new nom noms!

sniff, sniff, this one is a good one:

the best part of eating blueberries is being fed by mummy (all i need is daddy to fan me and ZuZu to rub my back - where are they? BOL)

slurp, slurp, slurp...

blueberries are da best! nom nom nom...

1st ever anipal academy awards!

Me and Hampton fought over who would write this important post. But because I'm the oldest, I won. BOL!

Mummy and Daddy could not have scheduled their vacation at the WORST time! Because they were away with limited internet access we weren't able to attend and participate in the 1st ever Anipal Academy Awards! Mummy blogged about what this is all about here.

Anyway, we are so proud of our fellow anipals who organized the event and for those who won awards - they deserved it!!! Congratulations to those on the organizing committee who put on a successful event! They are the hardest working and anipals out there! Special kudos to @AutumnTheDoxie and Tiger Tommy @TheNascarKitty.

We were able to help out a little bit but what we did was so minuscule in comparison to all the hard work that went into this annual event. And it paid off! The event ended up raising over $2600 for animal cancer research, can you believe that! That's pawesome!!

We were very honored to be a part of this event!! And we are happy to say we received 2 very big surprises:

1. Puppy Jones recevied a STAR in honor of anipal artists and comics *blush blush*

2. We (me, Hampton and Starbuck) received a "paw"some trophy for just being part of the help - totally unexpected! (Do you think I totally color coordinate with the trophy or what!?)

(Hampton was nervous taking such an important picture, I told him just to smile but he never listens to me!)

The Anipal Academy Awards is an annual event. We hopes we can continue to help out in any way we can. Here are important links - please join and follow!

mummy and daddy are back from vacation!

About 10 days ago Mummy and Daddy left for 'vacation'. At first I didn't know what they were talking about and what this would mean. I've never experienced M&D leaving for 'vacation'. ZuZu tried to explain it to me but I just didn't understand. Then G-ma and G-pa came over to stay and take care of us. They spoiled us lots with yummy nom noms, we spent everyday in the gardens, slept and played in the sunshine. ZuZu was extra spoiled because G-pa played ball with her all the time. I quickly found out that vacations are pretty cool :)

Yesterday Mummy and Daddy came back from their trip. I was so happy to see them! ZuZu and I fought to give them kisses. They were both on the floor by the time we finished!

After re-uniting as a family I had 1:1 time with Mummy. I wanted to make sure it was really her. Mummy is that really you?

After Mummy smiled and reassured me I felt it was ok to be myself again wif her.

I quickly jumped into her lap and let her give me snuggles.

I is soo happy that our family is back together again!

I've always wondered about ZuZu's fascination with t.b. and so I decided steal him away from her.

ZuZu wasn't too happy about that but it was fun having her chase me.

Here I am running around with t.b. in my mouth....

running this way....

running that way....

I had so much fun with t.b!

But in the end I decided to give him back to ZuZu. It was fun while it lasted but I know how much she lubs and missed him.

I think I'm a good brofur.

Today I thought I would share some of my favorite sneeping poses with you. I have lots but here are a few:

here is me when I was a puppy baby sneeping in my luxury bed (which is now all shredded up)...

here is me in a deep sneep after a FULL day of play (yup that is my snots dried up on my nose, BOL)...

here is how I sneep when I am REALLY pooped. Our fb friends Scooter n' Bella's Mummy says I look like I am climbing the wall, BOL!!

my most favorite sneeping position though is sneeping with Mummy. Do you think she likes it as much as I do??

my 9th birfday

I'm 9 years old today! And I'm so happy that I can celebrate my birfday with Daddy for Daddy's Day! If you didn't know, I'm Daddy's little angel (and I think I'm his favorite but don't tell Hampton or Starbuck that). Daddy said there wasn't any other way he would want to spend his day than to celebrate me (why thanks Dad!).

Mummy made us yummy nom nom pupcakes (which Hampton hogged) and we spent most of the day doing my most favorite thing - playing with t.b.

I wanted to thank all my anipals on twitter and our friends on facebook for wishing me a happy birfday. It worked because I definitely had a happy day!!!!

Loves and kisses,
ZuZu

Its been raining for a whole week and this is how I feel about it.

Mummy says to stop being so dramatic about it.

Do you think I look like I'm being dramatic? Anyway, let me know when the rain stops! A full week of sunshine would be nice!

getting in shape or rather getting jipped?

Hampton and I made a promise to eachother that we would get in shape for the summer. I said I would work the stairs and he said he would do trampoline jumps.

Here is me doing my exercises. Hampton was making sure I kept my pace and made it to the top.

Unfortunately when it was Hampton's turn, he decided resting under the trampoline was better for him than jumping on it.

Um hello!! What happened to our promise?! What a jip! BOL!
