Catch Up.

Hey everypup ~Misty here~

How have all you pups been doing this spring?  Long time no bark from the Pacific Northwest.  Sorry about that.  I blame Mom, and she blames something called "Work".  Pawsonally I believe she just goes to "Work" to get away from us 5 days a week, but that's ok because all we do here is sleep and bark.  BOL.

Let's see, we last time I barked out any news, Mom had gone on vacation to Victoria, BC Canada, our neighbors to the north of us.  We updated you on Pepper Power and how she is now sniffing, barking, smiling and doing "Privacy Please" all around the Rainbow Bridge.

Well this guy, he had some challenges last month too.

They shaved my leg.  Mom says I'm now 1/8th Poodle.  

Mr. Cutter had to go to the V-E-T and stay 2 whole days.  Once again bladder stone surgery was needed for one of the Papillon Pack.  So Mr. Cutter and I have that in common now.  That had better be the only thing we ever have in common - he's more annoying than my brother Scooter.  Mr. Cutter got his stitches out last week and the V-E-T gave him the all clear and said he was doing great.  We have to switch up the prescription food again, and it only comes in 10 lb bags.  Mom sighed and said that's just going to be $$$, but I have no idea what that means because I only speak Milkbones™.  Except Mom says when the SNACK™ cabinet runs dry we are S.O.L., which I am guessing doesn't mean SpoiledOverLoad does it?

Any pup out there want to know what has been happening in our backyard?

It all started with this kind of stuff.  I think our yard was hit with a virus or something, because these things started coming out again.

Stop hiding your peanuts in our yard!
SQUIRREL Alert to the left on the wall.
(Also lots of weeding needs to be done still.  Lazy Mom.)
Spring starts with this kind of stuff because that's what we are famous for in the Pacific Northwest.  Moss and Fungus among us.

You can't avoid this when the world is wet all the time.

Fungus flowers growing.

In the Pacific Northwest looking at moss to find out where North is doesn't work.  This is Southwest facing moss. 
Then this guy stopped by thinking he was going to party and brought his own house as well.


If I Could Walk 500 Miles.
Mom doesn't have any of that stuff going on in her yard if she sees it so that dude was tossed over the fence to the neighbors that don't take care of their backyard at all.  Don't tell anyone BOL.  If they are naked aka slugs, she is much more brutal.  We'll keep what happens in the backyard to slugs a secret, but she should be considered a slug serial killer.

This started growing again, so Zombie Patrol will be added to the guard duty.  Could use Whitley and Finley's help with some pointers and suggestions.

Arggghhh.  It lives!

DO NOT WATER!!!
Just in case, we made sure we have some good karma looking over the house.  Make sure to rub the bellah when you wander by.

He's not even looking toward the garden!

Now that's a bellah!!

Rub it, you know you want to!
Meanwhile we had to remodel the fairy garden.  Can you believe how the last tenants left it in shambles?  No security deposit back for them for sure!

This is after an overhaul of the yard nobody maintained over the winter months.

The Love Shack is back in business!!

Remodeled, but not for sale.
So I hope all you pups and your people are staying busy and staying healthy!!  Know that we still think of all of you often and love you even more.

Sniff at ya later ~Queen Misty~

OF ALL I SURVEY!!!

PS.  We'll try and update a little more often, so don't give up on us.
