Doc's Birfday...the Gift that Never Was...

So for Doc's birthday Vivi & Howie got him this toy.  It was called a loofah dog..but it was soft, not hard like a loofah...confusing I know.  But anyway, they found him here at the house in the "Toys That Haven't Been Killed Yet" pile & they said, "this would be perfect for Doc!"  The following depicts their decision making on the gift.

Vivi found it & decided to bring it to Howie's hidden hiding place (under the coffee table) for review.

They both decided to give the loofah dog a good sniff over.

They took their gift responsibility VERY seriously & no part will left unsniffed.

Vivi even gave it a good chomp to see how sturdy it was...after all bulldogs are a bit hard on their toys you know....

Then it was Howie's turn for his one-on-one review/chomp....it didn't go quite as planned.

Sorry Doc...we think you would have really liked loofah dog, but Howie decided to de-stuff & amputate a leg.  I'm sure it was all done out of love, right Howie??

Note From Doc

Our Doodle Doc turns 4 on Wednesday!!  So we HAD to have a birthday party for him on Tuesday night to make sure we were all home to celebrate!!!  And do we know how to celebrate!!!

All the bullies got a special dinner of McDonald's plain hamburger, fries & 1 McNugget!!  Oh boy oh boy!  They LOVED it!!  Check out the tongues!!

Yep!  The birthday boy is wearing a birthday bandanna!  He is stylin' & makes it look good!!  (We found out last year, birthday hats just don't work at this house.)

Doc was a very good boy this year & got some new bones, a Kong monkey, a ball & some cookies for dessert!!

He loved all his prezzies & shared them with Howie & Vivi.  He's such a good big brother!!

Oh they had so much fun!  They were all so tired & Doc just took it easy for the rest of the night!

Happy Birthday Doodle!!  We love you bunches monkey!!

Oh & as of 9pm...the Kong monkey toy is already out of commission....thanks Howie!!

A Note From Howie

I know. I know. I'm a bit disappointed too.



I mean I love her, but Momma!!! You need to make time to update the blog & site!! I mean really!!!


We have lots of stories to share!!
Love-Howie

Pay no attention to the bulldogs on top of Momma! We are NOT holding her against her will!



She will be back to her regularly scheduled self soon!
Love- Vivi & Doc

If you love your bulldog....

...decorate your car!!

Check out just some of the fun car decor I saw in the parking lot at the show this weekend!!

Finally...one of those oval stickers I know what it means!!

This has got to be one-of-a-kind!

Bully window cling anyone?

 and of course....

Currently, Fred is not decorated on the outside...however the inside can look like a bulldog sneezed & all its fur fell off at times!  Hahahaha!

Is your car bully decorated??

Specialty Show Days 2 & 3

Sorry Everybully!  Momma has been keeping me crazy busy the last couple days...go here, stay there, come now, do this, stack here, now here, don't move, head up, empty, play, kennel, sleep...jeez.....I've been a busy, busy bully!

But we're having fun here in Iowa!  No points or pretty ribbons that match or clash Momma's outfits; but both yesterday & today I made what Momma & her friends say "the cut"...meaning the class I was in was sooooo big--how big was it?--well take a look...

Can you even see me in this photo?  I promise I'm in here!!  Anyway, because the class is so big the judge looks at all the bullies & picks some he'd like to look at some more & then excuses the rest...well both the judges liked me enough to see me a bit longer both days!

Momma says it's cuz I a pretty girl!!

I think she's just biased!  But that's ok, she's my Momma

Here we are waiting in the ring...I didn't have to stack or anything.  I was making friends, other bullies were on their backs getting their bellies rubbed!  I was giving Momma High 5s for treats!  I'm no dummy, I can get my belly rubbed another day!!

Oh the power went out during the show today only for a few seconds but Momma was right by me so I wasn't scared at all.  Later tonight Momma went to the banquet...remember those baskets from the last post??  Well, Momma won some & she said she will share them with me & my brofers!!  I can't wait to see them!  (BTW...they went SWIMMING today at Grama & Grampa's house w/Daddy...luckies!!)

Ok, time for bed...talk to you all tomorrow sometime!  We have to go back home after the show so I may be too tried to post...but here's another photo...Momma thinks it's funny because it's what I do at home w/her dirty clothes...

Hope you all are having a great weekend!!
Love-
Vivi

Specialty Show Day 1

Hi Everybully, it's Me!  Vivi!!

Momma, Auntie Mary & I made it Iowa yesterday with no problems at all!  It was less than a 2 hour drive to make it, Momma was happy cuz she thought it was gonna be a longer drive..she needs to pay better attention to her geography, huh?

We're staying at a super nice hotel with a nice big room for all of my...err...Momma's stuff!  She had bags & bags & bags of stuff...but I suppose one of those bags has my food so I'm ok with that!!

Yesterday was kinda a long day...just like Momma said it would be.  There were lots of bullies & lots of goings on...but I took it all in stride.  Momma tried to take photos, but the lighting in the room wasn't ideal for where she was sitting...so she's moving spots today!!

Here I am in the ring...it was a big class...they kept going & going & going...

Momma said I did great & gave me lots of treats while we waited for the judge to get a good look at everybully.  This judge was funny, he would get down real low to look at you!!  I've never seen that before..I liked it.

Oh & he also came up behind you & grabbed your body & when he did that to me, my eyes got as "big as saucers"...Momma laughed really hard when that happen...well I didn't know he was gonna do that...he was nice but I couldn't see him so I was a little freaked out!!

Saturday, there is a banquet where they have a raffle & auction on stuff!  Look at all that stuff!!

Momma donated some panties she made for the raffle.  These are some of my favorites she made:

She even got real fancy this time & got business cards & labels made

Oooh fancy huh?

Ok, well Momma says I need to get off the Mac so we can get ready for the day.  We're missing some of watching the boys today so we don't have as long of a day today!  I'll let you know how we do!!
