Wipe Your Paws: It's Still Snowing in Victoria!

It's Still Snowing in Victoria!

This is our garage. Janet loves all the birds that come into our yard, so she tries really hard to make sure the feeder is full. Today, about two minutes after Janet filled it up, there were a couple of birds there.

This is us helping Janet shovel the driveway.

Janet is involved in a small scale bake sale at DFH, Phil's work. Here I am, helping out to the best of my abilities.

We can't believe it..we are on our fourth day of snow on the ground. Janet went downtown this morning to go to her yoga class at 10:30 and after that walked to Bond Bonds Bakery to buy a "Veggie on Asiago Cheese Bun" to take to what Bronwyn ~~lovingly~~ jokingly calls her "work".....Janet does work, she simply does not get paid...and she does this three days a week!

we had snow all last night, but unfortunately it wasn't enough to prevent work!

Janet looks very jaunty in her snow shovelling attire. I'd like to see her try that in Calgary! I'm not sure what would freeze first - ears or fingers, but I'm gonna guess fingers.

WORDS FROM THE GOLDEN PAWS

Hi...there are four of us! Myself, Corrigan (Rockers) and Kia (Noodles) stay with Our People, Janet and Phil in Victoria, BC. Our American correspondents, Ruby and Emma (Pashy) reside with Their People, Bronwyn and Mike in Portland, Oregon.

Noodles and I are 12 years old, Emma is six and Ruby is our most senior advisor at the ripe old age of 13!

We spend our days doing the usual doggie type of activities. I used to let Janet read her newspapers before I had her get our breakfast, but that is no longer the case. The minute she awakes and enters the kitchen, I start barking and that is her clue to get the show on the road. She likes to think she can ignore me, but I am far too persistent to let that happen!

Immediately after we eat, I start to track Phil down, room by room to let him know it's time to take us for a walk. Fortunately for Kia, I manage all these tasks on my own, so basically she is just along for the ride. What a Dumbbell..without me, she may never eat or go for a walk!

After our walk we sleep for several hours until it's time to start the process all over again, except in the afternoon the process is reversed. Every now and again, Phil will make some comment like "so, have the guys slept all day, again?". Not sure if he thinks we are supposed to be working on a thesis, or cleaning the bathroom - we are dogs!

Pretty exciting stuff!

NEW Update:

In addition to Ruby and Rockers having passed away, Noodles passed away 23 June 2016 - she was 14 years, 6 months, 10 days old, and we miss her so much. Out of the original gang - last doggie standing is Pashy (Emma) and her new sidekick in PDX, Watson! And, arriving very soon - Sherman!
