My Almost Totally Yorkie Friend

This is my friend, Pixel. Pixel visits here a lot, and leaves funny and nice comments on my posts.

Pixel is a Yorkie-Poo, I hope I spelled that right and won’t tell you what I thought it meant at first (LOL), because Pixel’s human, the famous “Pop Art Diva” said she is called that because she is partly poodle. But only about 10% so that’s why she’s almost totally a Yorkie just like me!!

I’ll tell you why her picture looks like it does in a minute…but first, this cute little Yorkie lives in Arizona, and loves to travel to art shows with her owner. I’ve also heard she LOVES her cookies!

Now for the picture, if you are owned by a talented artist, I guess this is what happens to your picture, your hair gets a “Photoshop Grooming”. I bet that if you have a dog picture that needs a Photoshop Grooming, the Pop Art Diva can do it for you, but I’m not sure, you’ll have to ask her. She has a really colorful website right here, and you can find her colorful blogs from there.

AND, not to be outdone, Pixel is going to have her own blog, just like I do. Her blog is going to be pixelthepuppy.com, if you go there now, and there is nothing but a hosting service page, come back and try again soon!


Cops Make “Kissy Faces” At This Friend

Aspen | Dogs,My Pet Friends | Thursday, 26 June 2008

I have another friend to introduce you too, and from this picture, I’d say this is one lucky dog! I mean look at her, she can lounge in the grass…I can’t do that ’cause I have allergies to flea bites, even if they just hop on and give me one little bite, and that happens even if I have my Frontline on. Kelly is 12 1/2 years old, and is part Yellow Labrador Retriever and part something else, maybe terrier.

Her full name is Kelle Belle, and her owner, Debra Shiveley Welch said saying her name is kinda’ like singing “Wooly Booley”, my owner laughed, but I was a little confused? After all, my owner is a LOT older than I am…oh, I’m not supposed to say that!  But she remembered a song and started to sing it.  Very strange human behavior.

I guess you’re wondering about the “Cops” thing. My owner said Cops are Police men and women. They ride around in cars that have sirens and flashy lights sometimes.  They are there to protect humans from danger, but she said that once in a while, VERY rarely (ha!) one pulls up behind her and she has to pull the car over and show the police person some little papers in her wallet.  Then he gives her something called a ticket.

But for Wooly Booley, I mean Kelly Belle, that doesn’t happen. When they are driving behind her owners car, they think she’s so cute they make kissy faces at her, I bet that has saved Debra LOTS of tickets! I’ll have to try that sometime, because even though I don’t know what a ticket is, it sounds like something bad.

I’m happy to have another new friend! She takes good care of Debra’s son, Chris, too. Oh, did I tell you that Debra and her son are both authors? You’ll have to visit Debra’s website!


Have You Heard of Dogster?

Aspen | Other Sites | Thursday, 26 June 2008

One of my friends (you’ll meet him later) introduced me to a new website, just for dogs! I haven’t figured it out yet, it looks like a place to have a blog, and I already have a blog, but it looks like there’s a lot more. The site is called “Dogster“.

The only thing I didn’t like was that Yorkshire Terriers were number 9 in the “popular dogs” part of the home page, of course I think we should be number 1 >:-(< Oh well.

When my owner has time, I’ll have to get her to help me browse around the site more and see if there’s any nice dogs for me to be friends with. I wonder if there’s a “Catster”?


Cats and an Author in Australia

Aspen | Cats,My Pet Friends | Thursday, 26 June 2008

I thought I’d introduce you to some of my friends. Some I’ve met all by myself, others my owner has introduced me to. Today I’m going to introduce you to 4 cats, yes, me, a dog introducing cats. But these are special cats because they are owned by a special lady in Australia who is having a book launch TODAY! If you are a person who works at home, or thinking of working at home, you’ll want to visit eBook & Book Reviews & News and look for the post on this special “Amazon Blitz”. Don’t worry, it opens a separate page and you can come right back here after you visit. It’s going great so far!

Anyway, back to the cats. This is from Kathie Thomas’ web page showing her cats taking advantage of her office space, the place where her books have their beginning, at least the writing part. They are really cute!

and finally, Toki, after a long day in the office.

Thanks, Kathie, for sharing these pictures, they are so fun, and here’s the original post that Kathie sent us to borrow the pictures from.

Kathie, my owner and I wish you the very best in with your “book blitz” today and hope you sell lots of copies of “Worth More Than Rubies“, my owner bought a copy, she can’t wait to get it!


Tips on Buying Horses

Aspen | Horses,Other Pets | Monday, 23 June 2008

My owner loves horses. She used to have one, and wanted us to write about horses on this blog, so we talked about it, and I let her add a page to the site with some simple horse buying tips.

She used to own an Appaloosa, and said that I am smaller than a horses head. I guess I must be pretty small, or horses must be really big. I like writing about me the most, and thought we had agreed we would just write about little dogs, but she loves other kinds of animals too, abd begged me, and promised me an extra snack that she’s giving me right now!

Enjoy the horse article, we’ll be back with something about dogs tomorrow. Snack time!
