A note to winter…

Dear Winter,

I was sort of ok with you around Christmas time so that the big guy in red could deliver my presents, however I think you may be overstaying your welcome. While you do make everything look pretty itโ€™s hard for those of us with short leg issues to maneuver in you while taking care of business if you know what I mean… please return the sun to us and be on your way. I sort of look forward to seeing you next winter. Sincerely, Miss Lilly

New year, clean pup…

Apparently since it is a new year and all that means Iโ€™m supposed to get a bath. Something about early โ€œspring cleaningโ€…..

Definitely not impressed with this decision….just gonna pout here with my towel for awhile on momโ€™s nice dry bed!

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, thatโ€™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 weโ€™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 thatโ€™s all for now just wanted to share a little update of what Iโ€™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 ๐Ÿ’œ

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 ๐Ÿ˜‰)

Scouting ahead again to ensure everyone was safe ( I absolutely did not try to roll in poo ๐Ÿ’ฉ) ( 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!

Ruff conditions

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!!
