New lounger

So mom FINALLY got all of my subtle hints and bought me this new lounger for our back deck. Now I can survey my kingdom in comfort from both my front and back yards. Plus she picked a color that really highlights my fur. Just wish she would have picked up on my cues earlier…oh well, that’s life I guess!

A little update..

So finally got to go to the pet store for a shopping trip! I had the whole aisle to myself and picked out some pretty good eats.

The weather has also improved and we’ve been doing a lot of grilling…this is one of my prepared meals. The chef forgot that I ordered a side of bacon though….I ate it anyway but did tell the manager (aka mom).

We have also still been going on our fun hikes in the woods. I am always pack leader and am constantly surveying the area for potential threats (aka chipmunks). I guess that’s all for now just wanted to share a little update of what I’ve been up to. Hope everyfur is well and staying safe!

Quarantine in the woods

So this last week the weather has perked up a little around here and I’ve been going on lots of adventures in the great outdoors!

Taking a moment on our hike to let mom capture my beauty 💜

I took the lead on this particular hike to make sure there were no dangers ahead ( and to possibly get to some poop before mom could stop me!)

This was me coming back down a very high, rocky mountain…( note from mom-it was a medium size rocky hill 😉)

Scouting ahead again to ensure everyone was safe ( I absolutely did not try to roll in poo 💩) ( mom’s note- Miss Lilly started to do the roll and tuck but luckily she only got a dab on her cheek, still needed freshened up when we got home though!)

So we are glad the weather broke so we could enjoy Mother Nature for a little while! Hope everyone is safe and well!

So the weather has warmed up and I have been spending more quality time outdoors, for some strange reason mom refuses to get out my porch rugs or any of my nice cushioned furniture. I have been forced to make due with this old decorative hay bail still on the porch….I guess I’m going to have to make some calls if I want anything done around here!

Staying warm…

It’s that time of year again where I need my staff to step it up a little…the temperature has dipped down and I need some extra preparations to stay warm while doing my business…

Luckily our pals at Howlin’ Hounds know how to keep a basset warm!! With custom snoods and coats for the hard to fit hound body….

Also the staff has to do a little outside prep work and shovel some paths and potty areas since I have low clearance…. well that’s it for now stay warm everyone!!

Slow Halloween

Well we had a slow start this year, but eventually Captain Marvel decided it was time to get up…

Survey the situation….

And head out for her mission to wish everyone a Happy Howl-o-ween! ( also to make sure she collected her treats)

Not impressed..

So pals mom decided to try a different flea and tick prevention this year, a flea collar, needless to say it didn’t go so well..

So after an emergency vet visit and three different medicines ( an antibiotic, medicated wipes and an ointment) we were back home without the collar.

A few days later I didn’t want to get up and go potty or eat so we had to go see our regular vet. They switched me to a different medicine and within a couple days I was back to my feisty, incredibly adorable, old self except for the bare spot on my chest.

Mom and I are both glad that it is over and I’m feeling better. It was definitely scary so please be sure to check daily if you are wearing a flea collar!
