Dear Dog Blog,

Last night a super moon light up the night's sky. The moon was extra big and round and deserved a few howls. ArrOOOooo! ArrOOOooo!

Here is a pic of the super moon over me (moon over my Hammie - kekeke!):

And a better look at what the super moon looked like from our home in North Vancouver, BC, Canada:

Dear Dog Blog,

We have the bestest friend ever! We absolutely lub our facebook friends. They are so caring, sweet, kind-hearted and always put smiles on our faces.

Yesterday we got a really cool gift from Giselle, Vincent and the beagle ninjas. A giraffe stuffed with a plastic bottle!!! How smart (in case you didn't know, beagles lub lub lub plastic bottles)!

Here is some pics. And as well, some pics from the sweet valentine and easter cards we received from our friend Sadie and her Mum.

xoxo to you all!

A perfect gift for a beagle! See Hammie coming to get it in the background?

Dear Dog Blog,

We took a little break on our Hammie vs Daddy in our photo competition but we're back! Read about what this is all about here.

This week Mummy's feet are the focus of our photos! If you know our comics, you'll recognize these feet!

Here is Daddy's photo taken with his Canon:

a t.b. tree?! ♥ dog blog ♥ zuzu (schnauzer / heeler)

2012-04-16T00:42:00.000-07:00

Dear Dog Blog,

Today we helped Mummy with her gardening. She called us her little cows cause we kept nomming on the grass. nom nom nom!

As part of her gardening, Mummy dug out some holes to plant her bulbs. I started thinking, what could be better than a t.b. tree?!!!...so I decided to try and plant t.b. in one of them.

Hampton thought it was a pawesome idea too and decided to get in on the action. He thought t.b. should have a bigger hole so he started digging - he's good at that. You can't see it here but his paws got pretty black. Mummy wasn't too happy with that.

Oh well. Maybe we'll get to plant t.b. next time....when Mummy isn't around!

can i have some? ♥ dog blog ♥ hampton (beagle)

2012-03-11T19:12:00.001-07:00

Dear Dog Blog,

Today I almost broke the world record for longest drool. I was sitting beside Mummy who was eating her lunch and just couldn't help myself. Hey...I come by these talents naturally.

If you look closely you can see it goes down to the middle of my chest:

Unfortunately the length of my drool didn't impress her. I decided to use another tactic of mine. Mummy! Mummy! Can I please have some? hellooooo!

And...finally...score! nom nom nom!

Dear Dog Blog,

It's that time again! Hammie vs Daddy in our photo competition! Read about what this is all about here. So far based on comments on our blog and on facebook it's Hammie 2 vs Daddy 1 (we tied the first one). Let's see if I can make it 3:0!

Here is Daddy's photo (paaashhaww! he's cheating and using me as his model again, teehee!):

Here's mine...since my ears and jowls seem to be such a hit in my video and other pics I decided to submit this picture for this week's showdown with Daddy:

beagle meet up ♥ dog blog ♥ hampton (beagle)

2012-02-27T22:42:00.000-08:00

Dear Dog Blog,

This past weekend we went to our first Beagle 'meet up'! It was so much fun but M&D were sure busy trying to keep track of me. There were so many beagles it was hard to figure out who was who, BOL!

Here are some pics from the day:

Beagles on the loose!

Me by the lake, sniff sniff...

More sniffing...

No tree is too big for my pee-mail!

ZuZu protecting her t.b. from a pack of beagles! (Can you spot which one is me?)

On the way home...I'm hiding under the towel.

Dear Dog Blog,

It's that time again! Hammie vs Daddy in our photo competition! Read about what this is all about here. Based on the comments on our blog and on facebook we tied for our first competition. I still think Daddy had an unfair advantage using me as his model! ;)

For round #2 we used ZuZu as our model. Let us know which photo you vote for by commenting!

Dear Dog Blog,

Guess what! For Valentine's Day, M&D got me my very own camera and ZuZu got another t.b. (ZuZu thinks I lost out)!

I've decided to call my camera, Hammie's Cammii (named after Daddy's new camera - Cammii Zunon)

Anyway, we thought it would be fun to have a vote to see who you think captured the better photo, me or Daddy?! Let us know by commenting either "Hammie or Daddy"

Here's Daddy's photo from his Cammii (is it fair he used a cute beagle as his model?):

Here's my photo from Hammie's Cammii (can you see the back of my jowls and drool? BOL!):

For those wondering how I captured my photo, M&D set it on video mode and they helped to screen capture one of the images from the file.

So, what do you think? Vote by commenting, "Hammie or Daddy"!

meet gomez! ♥ dog blog ♥ zuzu (schnauzer / heeler)

2012-01-08T16:46:00.000-08:00

Dear Dog Blog,

A few months ago Hampton received a super cute beaver in the mail from our facebook friends, Beggie & Maja. We named him, Beiber (see more pics of Hampton & Beiber here).

For Kissmas, Beggie & Maja sent me a cute little beaver too! I've decided to call mine, Gomez!!!

Here are some pics of me and Gomez. I am balancing Gomez on my head just like Hampton did with Beiber! (Btw, the beautiful red and black blankie is from our dear friend Sadie. Sadie's Mum made it for us! Thank you Sadie! We lub it!).

Am I doing it right???

Concentrating really really hard to keep Gomez on my head.

Ta Da! I can do it too, just like Hampton!

Thank you Beggie and Maja for our cute prezzies, Beiber and Gomez (teehee!).
