The Queen

Hello to all my new friends! Thanks for coming to visit yesterday (and thanks for the warning about Puddles...I think :-))!

Some of you realized that I mentioned having TWO sisters. How very observant of you! I used to have three, but one just moved to another home with no dogs...so I'm down to two. But I heard ma say that if Caroline doesn't get her housebreaking act together, I might be down to ONE! This house is shrinking by the minute! By the by, as much as I might complain about Caroline, I really do love her, so if you have any potty training tips for ma (for a stubborn dog who hasn't made any progress in 3 weeks), please leave them here.

Anyway. Back to my sister #2. I call her "The Queen" (she makes me):
Her name is actually Autumn Joy. She has lived with ma and pa since way before I was born, and she was already set up as "Supreme Ruler of the House" when I arrived. She's a little snobby (as seen in the above photo), but she does play with me sometimes, which is fun. Sometimes though, she'll just walk up to where I am and punch me in the face. And I don't think that is very nice. Do you? -

One day, I woke up, and what do you think I saw??? THIS:
Are those ears I see poking up from MY doggie bed?
Oh my goodness, yes they are! The nerve. Get your own bed! Oh wait. I guess she DOES have her own bed. And I guess I (might) sleep in it sometimes. Ok. We're even.
Here she is sharing the coveted top of the couch with me.
And here we are all snuggled in for an afternoon nap on the top of my favorite overstuffed chair. Ma woke us up for the picture.

Well, I'd better go get my hair fluffed for our morning car trip...

You are a brave, brave doggie to live with a kitteh sister! We used to have one but she was CRAZEE! So mom found her a new home... but we still have a kitteh brother and for the most part he's okay.

Hi friend! Thanks for joining Pet Blogs United! I live with 2 cats who slap me in the nose for NO reason too. And they also think that they can sleep on my things.

I'm going to nose around and check out your blog a little more!

We think that maybe Autumn Joy really does like you. She seems to like to be wherever you are:)

We don't have any suggestions for your sister other than practicing the NILIF program, Nothing In Life Is Free - she has to stay on a leash all the time in the house connected to Mom. When Ciara came to live with us, Mom took her out at least once an hour on a leash and as soon as Ciara went potty, she got lots of praise, maybe a treat, and then right back inside. Takes time and patience. Good luck.

Hahahah, Chester - that last shot of you ... you look kind of "pissed." Well, hope you had a good day and were all fluffed up for the car trip. I bet you looked dashing.

Have a nice weekend!

Your pal, Pip

sprinkles said...

I linked to you from George the Lad. I figured if he liked you, I would too!

Your kitty sister is pretty! I used to have a cat. He'd do the same thing to my chihauhau - walk up and smack him for no reason at all. But then again, my chi was a rowdy puppy who thought the world revolved around him so he probably deserved it for something he'd done earlier.

Hi, George sent us over. Good to meet you.

That cat (and what cat doesn't) looks like trouble! Good luck with that one.

Hi, Chester!
Lola told us about your blog and I wanted to come and say hello!
I hope we can be friends!
Kisses and hugs

Lola and also Franklin, too said...

Is your sister a dilute tortie or a calico? It makes all the difference. I have a tortie sister and she whacks me from time to time, too. The difference is she doesn't seem to like doggies at all. I don't think.

lotsa licks, Lola

I understand you've been warned about the crazy Puddles Duddles, so I'll skip that part of the welcome. Hehe...

Chester - That's nice of you to share your house with a kitteh. We don't have any here. A couple have wandered in our fenced yard, but when they get a whiff of us, for some reason - they take off like their tail's on fire! Go figure :)
PeeS - Nice to meet ya - we've been seeing your name mentioned all over blogville - WELCOME!

Congrats, Chester, on getting your mom to make you a blog. We're still waiting on ours. Saw you on Tank's blog, and just wanted to say welcome and we look forward to getting to know you. We're rescue dogs, too, so we're also lucky, grateful [mostly] pups.
