Hello all

Well I'm just gonna hop on real quick and let everyone know I've been MIA because mom's trying to get stuff together for her future job searches. Plus she's also doing her finals and getting ready to be done with school for good. So we promise to blog soon but just please bear with us. Thanks everyone Ozzy!

Wirey hugs!

Well I have to start off my blog by saying thank you to everyone who has supported us in our donations campaign. It means alot to us. Now I have to share my fun fun weekend.

Wow I got to have a nice weekend home with mom and dad. Oh man we went for walks and spent time together. I love weekends with both mom and dad off.

Here's a picture of us starting our fun weekend.

This is Romeo's bed but I stole it. It's only fair I am the oldest. Then we went to the Vanderbilt Mansion in Hyde Park NY it is one of my favorite local places to walk.

They have some awesome smells and tons of places to mark. Here is Dad & I posing for the camera. He was a bit cold as I'm sure you can tell. Mom is forever putting my sweatshirt on and boy was I happy for that on Saturday when it was a bit nippy out there. My brother Romeo and I did find a new place for us to live though Mom said that it's not a place for dogs to live in let alone visit. I'm sorry why not? It was huge and I could smell all those little nooks and crannies. Oh man my nose was itching to get into that place. But no go. We did get to visit the front steps.

Yeah I know I thought big whoop too!

Sunday we went for another walk down by the river without our friends from the dog group. Mom and Dad wanted to go early because they had plans without us. Can you believe they didn't want to spend time with us? I know I'm shocked too! They went to a St Patrick's Day parade over in Kingston NY and then went and brought us home some snackies. Oh I'll admit it that made it up for me. You can leave me home but you better bring me back some good yummies. Mom mentioned something about a vet visit this week. Something about my annual physical and shots. I'm not too ok with that idea but I do like my vet she is a really super nice lady and I guess if I don't get my shots I can't have fun and play outside. So I'll suffer and get the shots. Well all Romeo is bugging me to let him get online and blog. The downsides of having a brother. So if you haven't donated yet please remember you have until May 6 to do so and I would be completely thankful for it. Yes I'm being greedy & begging for lots and lots of money. Mom would be so proud.

Have a good week folks.

Wirey hugs,

Ozzy

I'm such a self promoter but I wanted to let those of my blogger friends that want to contribute on my behalf know that we are up and running! The very nice lady just called and said that they fixed the problem and everyone can give give give! But if you do have any problems let me know and I'll have mom call her back.
Thanks again for anyone that would like to contribute.

Help us raise money for a good cause

OK I know I normally don't ask for things on my blog but for this I will ask all of my friends to help me raise money for the American Cancer Society. They have this awesome thing here in New York that is called the Dogswalk Against Cancer (yes I know I've stated it before)well any money we raise goes to help find a cure for cancer in pets. My mom is a huge supporter of this cause and since she's family I will support this cause to! Well I should since it could affect me someday(God forbid!). So since it's been asked to send a link on where to donate I will send along a link to our personal ACS page! Anything you guys can give is awesome no I'm wrong it is TERRIERIFIC! So thank you one and all in advance.
Sincerely with tons of wirey hugs,
Ozzy (the official dogwalker against cancer!)

Countdown to the Dogswalk Against Cancer

Oh man the mail came in today and we found out that the dogswalk against cancer is May 6 2007. Mom says though she thought she read something about it being a 3 day weekend thingy. That'd be cool too! Oh how much fun was that last year. Mom, Grandma, and myself went last year to Bear Mountain State Park and it was a blast! The walk was nice and the scenery was terrierific. Oh and the best part? I got to meet new doggies and I got loads of treats! How fun!I can't wait. Now mommy has to find people to donate money for such a worthy worthy cause. This is one cause that is close to my mom and grandma's heart since they lost a dog a few years ago to cancer. So I will step up and volunteer my time and walk for a GREAT cause.
Mom says she will ask people at her school and then maybe the ladies at the dog walk that we do in the nicer months. Mom told me she got an email from the ladies and they apparently went last weekend in the cold snowy weather. Nope not me I'd freeze out there or so mom says. She probably means herself. I'm hoping to get some money up so that we can help other animals out there fight and find a cure against cancer. It is quite a harsh disease to get and mom and I would like to help as much as possible. Mom says that hopefully by then she'll be working and will be able to see if her co-workers can help with some money.
We will of course have to bring my brother and I hear from Mom that Daddy is off that weekend too so that will mean that Daddy can go this year with us. Sorry grandma. I'm sure she'll want to tag along too. I don't blame her all those cool doggies in one place and of course us foxies too! I think I was the only one there last year so at least this year it'll be me and my brother. Or as mom puts it my shadow. Ahh the countdown begins.

Wirey hugs,
Ozzy

Ohh how I've been tricked

Oh how I've been tricked! I got up this morning thinking today was going to be a day full of treats. My own Grandmother was the first one to trick me. She let me out this morning with a promise of a car ride. She knows how much I love car rides. So we get ready this morning I got my sweatshirt on since according to the mean women in my life I needed to keep warm we all four oh because we can't forget my brother got into the car and off we go! Oh how much fun I was having riding along with my mom and grandma. I particularly love to ride in the car and whenever I go for a ride I'm quite content to not boss them around and just let them drive me wherever they would like to go. Well we were going a different way and I thought to myself ooh a new park? or could it be a new place to go for a walk? or could we be going to my favorite store? Oh no we stop at this little store that wasn't even open when I got there. The lady shows up a few minutes after we do and she lets us into her store. Oh goody TREATS! Oh geez she was nice and friendly and talked nice to me and took off my collar and leash. Well stupid me should have thought something was up when my women left me with stupid I mean Romeo. Well this woman who I found out isn't nice took out her clippers and turned on that gawd awful sound and proceeded to buzz me and my hair went off! Apparently Grandma told them to go short because now I'm bald! I guess it's a good thing I have a sweater to wear. Well the good thing is she let me roam free and play with other doggies(mom: they have humping issues & liked to be the bad boys and bully other dogs) So I'm happy to report that I was not the only one in this family getting trimmed down. But alas I digress. We then got to lay in the lady's nice front window and patrol anyone that dared walk by. I was really waiting for my evil women but they came 3 hours late. So when mom and grandma finally got there we were treated to a trip to PETCO! Oh how fun we got loads of compliments on how handsome we are and then we got to shop. Oh we got a couple of greenies and some biscuits and we even got our food. Oh how they made up for it. So we got home and I complained to my father who believe it or not is not on my side! I am telling you my friends it is a conspiracy. Next time I hear a countdown I'm going to just hide. I've included some pictures for all to admire. I must say I do clean up handsome that's for sure!
My brother & me
me protesting these pictures!


Being the goofball that I am


Showing her how handsome I can be

Thanks for visiting my blog. Happy Birthday to my pal Gussie in AZ. Gussie it sure sounds like you had a great birthday! May you have many many more.

Happy Belated Valentine's Day

Well I'm posting my Happy Valentine's Day a day late. Mom was playing nurse to dad who was and I quote"hugging the porcelain throne" Mom was glad to help dad back to health but I think she wasn't looking forward to that being her romantic holiday. Poor Poor Mom. She has a job interview tomorrow. Dad's going for a better position at his job. Hopefully he gets it. Mom had off again today due to the snow. Man talk about a nice day home. She was just upset because school didn't close until the next morning and she says she would have liked to have slept in. That's ok I would have woken her up soon enough for my morning duties. They rented some movies and have been vegged out in their bedroom snuggled with Romeo and myself. What more could a pup ask for? They even let me run crazy through the snow off lead. Now that was a blast. I'm not sure how much snow we got but it's enough to make me have some fun in the house. Mom says she's pleased to report that I'm listening and following the trainer's homework that she gave my family. She's quite impressed with how well I listen. I didn't realize there was a problem with my listening skills. I thought I listened fine just like a terrier whenever I chose to. I think it's not how mom wanted it to be. Sorry mom. I keep hearing Grandma saying something about just two more days boys. I don't know what that's supposed to mean. I hope the trainer lady isn't coming back. I'll keep you guys updated though.
Well I hope everyones holiday was good and you guys got lots of love and some treats. I'm off to watch another movie.

We got snow!

Wow I can't believe it finally snowed here last week. It was so awesome mom let me outside to play in it for a while. Oh how sweet that was. I guess Bussie's little prayer work for me because
next thing you know we got snow!

Mom decided that she would throw some snowballs at me and they were fun to catch. I even had mom take some pictures of me playing in the snow.

I even helped mom shovel a bit. She says I wasn't all that helpful but really what does she know?
I did get mom to laugh at me and that's always a fun thing to do. Dad's off this weekend and of course he's got a cold or at least that's how mom puts it. I've been snuggling with dad helping him to feel better just like I'm supposed to do.
Hey a pups gotta do what a pups gotta do.
We had a trainer come and give us a lesson today. She's with a company that grandma hired to help me and Romey stop fighting and she was nice and made a few funny noises. Romey and I have decided to try it out because seeing mom and grandma unhappy with us was just not cool.
So now I'm gonna go lay down with Daddy and put him back to sleep. Take care everyone.

Wirey hugs,
Ozzy

Happy Birthday to my Mom

Wow I wanted to post this earlier but have been unable due to the fact that I'm confined to my crate lately cause of my fighting with my brother.
Today is my wonderful mom's birthday and I don't know if Dad has anything planned for her but I know I plan on giving her tons and tons of kissies. She is the most awesomest mom one could ever ask for. She gives such good lovies and she's got a glow about her like you wouldn't believe. So mom Happy Birthday.

Loves, kissies, hugs,
Ozzy

Good morning world!
Do I have to beg for some snow! I mean I see all of the rest of the country getting snow and yet my puppy butt can't seem to get more tha a little dusting. This is BULL! I saw out West they got FEET of snow ok I don't think I want FEET of snow but ya know maybe just a foot?! Am I asking too much?! I haven't seen snow since I was a young pup and now that I'm a one year old snow is important to me to see if I have a need to play in it. Mom says for some reason it would be fun and quite frankly I don't remember so there is a need in my bones to see snow. So umm whoever is in charge of making snow and sending it my way could I get some please? Not alot mind you but enough to have fun in.

Wirey hugs,

Sorry I've been not posting

Hey all!
I'm going to appologize for not posting as much as I used to but we've been busy around here with mom and her new hard classes. She's been enjoying them and learning new things which with mom is ALWAYS a good thing.
Mom has a new picture for me to post of my brother and myself. We're snuggling in bed about to go to sleep. We've been getting along pretty well but he's got some issues. He needs to stop playing so rough. I'm glad to see my friends Fee, Party and Mango are back to blogging more frequently. Hopefully they will continue to keep up with the blogging. I promise to try to blog a bit more often if mom's homework and school life permit. Well I've got not much else to post about so I'm going to sign off. Have a good night folks. Talk to you soon.

Wirey hugs,
Ozzy

We'll miss you Desiree!

Hello my friends,
I wanted to take the time out to pay tribute my kitty. My kitty Desiree passed away yesterday morning. She was about 12 yrs old mom isn't exactly sure since she rescued her over 10 yrs ago from the local SPCA. Mom got woken up by grandma to come down and say goodbye so mom stayed in the room with her until she went to the bridge.Desiree was in mommy's arms when she crossed over with mommy telling her goodbye and everything else. Mom and grandma cried when she passed away. Talk about a rough couple of months for my family.
Mom said that 10 yrs ago there was a house in her area that had over 100 cats in a one room home and they had to find homes for all these cats. Well her and grandpa went to the SPCA and walked around and went to this crate where my kitty was and that my kitty walked up to the door and meowed at them. So mom said that was it she was going home with them. So mom and grandma took her to the vet Wednesday morning to get her checked out because they knew something wasn't right with her. Well I guess my Desiree just wasn't feeling well enough. Desiree I'm going to miss you and wish you could have stayed around because I had fun playing with you. Mommy hasn't stopped crying in her sleep and said she wasn't ready for you to go. So she sent you to the Rainbow Bridge and will be lighting a candle for you on Monday. She asked me to type in here that she misses you and hopes to see you soon enough at the bridge. We miss you Desiree and love you lots!

Merry Christmas!!!

Wow did I get the ultimate Christmas gift last night! No not another sibling thank God. My dad didn't have to work last night so I've got him for the next 3 nights including last night. Oh man what more could a pup ask for? Oh I know a trip to the ball park so I can run like the wind which I got this morning. My mom, dad, brother and I all took a trip to the ball park so Romeo and I could run and run and run. This guy was there with his son and they had this things that looked like little cars chasing Romeo and I. My parents thought it was funny. Not so much if you asked Romeo or me. I'm telling you friends my folks have a sick sense of humor. Little did that guy know though that if he let the "toys" get near me enough I would have chew 'em up. So anyways mom and dad didn't get me or Romeo anything because they weren't sure what to get. That's ok mom mentioned hitting the clearance racks tomorrow. I really don't mind I'm just happy I have my three humans home with me for the holidays.
Well folks have a great holiday with your loved ones. Merry Christmas!

Christmas hugs,

Ozzy

Hello my friends,
I wanted to take time out of my busy schedule to say Happy Howlidays. I hope you all get exactly what you've asked for and that you enjoy all the time home with your loved ones. I know I will. Mom is done with this semester and won't go back until the start of the new year so I'm going to be hogging up as much of her time as possible. Mom had some fun with that god awful camera of hers and has some new pictures for me to share with you all. There is one of my brother and me and then of course of just me. I must say we are some scruffy looking handsome pups. My mom says that if the weather holds up we should be having some fun this next week. Oh man it better be some nice weather. I don't care about the cold but NO RAIN!













I can't believe my mother forced me to put on those embarassing antlers. Well my friends I'm gonna go I'm wasting precious time on here so sorry if that sounded rude. Take care and enjoy your Christmas dinner and presents.

Merry Christmas,
Ozzy and my mom

I've been Christmas Tagged!

I've been tagged by Mackie in a new Christmas game. Here are the rules of the game:The player of this game starts with "3 things he/she would love to get for Christmas" and also has to list "3 things he/she definitely does not want to get for Christmas". Then he/she tags 5 friends and list their names. The ones who get tagged need to write on their blogs about their Christmas wishes, as well as state this rule clearly, then tag 5 more victims. And the one who tags need to leave a comment that says "you've been Christmas tagged!" in their comments and tell them to read your blog.So here goes- Three things I would love to get for Christmas...hmmnnn,
1. Some new toys for me to play with.
2. An end to animal abuse.
3. A big backyard that I can run around loose in.

3 things I don't want for Christmas
1. No more new brothers or sisters.
2. Another bath or trip to the groomers.

Well this is me and Romeo hanging out one night this past week. Mom was wondering where we were and was shocked to see us "behaving". Well of course we were behaving we were discussing who got socky this time.
We're totally curious as to where this snow is supposed to be. Mom says every other day they're talking about snow but still nada. Well as cold as it is outside I think I might appreciate a little bit of snow to play in. I heard mom and dad talking about this weekend if there is no snow going for a long cold walk in the woods. I think that might work for me. Not my car sick brother though. Mom's had enough of the pukey boy. LOL I told him our mom does not like cleaning up puke but being the awesome woman that she is she is learning to just grin and bear it. I've told my brother the car rides are usually great things we end up going somewhere totally fun and get things out of it. But oh no not the pukey boy. Total whimp I tell ya.
So I should have a good weekend I got mom and dad and my grandma home with me oh yeah and my brother. Oh we did go and see our birth parents last weekend and let me tell you I am soo glad I'm living where I'm living my father and mother both decided to fight with me and Romeo. Geesh don't they know that little guy is timid? I politely ahem told him to bug off. I don't like to be humped or fought with. Thank goodness my mom took us out of there quick as can be. So mom bought us both some antlers and I hear rumors that we'll be getting pictures taken with them on. I refuse this but I know my mother will force me into doing this. So expect pictures. Mom has learned my password and will post them with or without my permission.
They do need to go get some new batteries for my camera though so I can share pictures of our walk this weekend.
Well folks I'm going to get moving dad just got in and wants to play. I must appease the man or will he whine like my brother. Geesh the things I do for my parents. LOL

Hey friends,
I know it's been a little while since I wrote on here but mom and I have been busy playing with my new brother. Man this kid can play right along with me. I thought I was a hard player. It must be in the genes. Mom says we seem to be getting along pretty good. I would like to think so.
Grandma left us alone together today and he enjoyed mom's shoe. I on the other hand did nothing but lay in bed with dad(mom says yeah right). Dad did take some pictures over the weekend of us hanging out. I wanted to show us off a bit so I have included them in this posting. Congrats to my pal Bussie for Awesome Blog of the Month. That's terrierific my friend. Happy Belated Birthday to sweet Sunshade. I hope you had a terrierific day and got loads of presents which it seems you did.
Well I'm gonna get moving I wanna go play some more. Everybody enjoy your day. I know I will.

Wirey hugs,
Ozzy
