Keli's Korner ~ The Westie and The Wauzer

We just saw this funny picture online: see more puppies That looks like me, right? But the lady who owns the picture says that's a miniature white schnauzer . Wikipedia has this to say about miniature white schnauzers . So I took a look over at Dogster at their group for White Mini Schnauzers and they look just like me, too. Maybe I'm not a Westie after all . . . maybe I'm a white mini schnauzer???? Can me and Keli still be sisters? I hope so. Will have to find more info about this . . . but this would explain A LOT! Thanks for visiting our blog, Penny,

There are a couple of new articles over at SewAmazin about recent Westie sewing projects: Penny Strikes Again > see what she nibbled on in my sewing room A New Pair of Beds for Keli and Penny > matching Westie beds for their crates

Today we are celebrating my first birthday . . . we're not sure if this is my for real birthday, 'cuz I was adopted and my first people didn't tell me when my birthday is, but since we're pretty sure it's sometime around now, my forever people decided September 1 is the Birthday! And you know what else? It's Keli's half -birthday, so we both get to have special treats today! Thanks for reading our blog, Penny

Have a look at Penny's latest conquest: From Keli's Korner Photo Album I'd like to believe she thought she was helping me out . . . just the other day I was complaining about how much I hate to vacuum and dust, so maybe she thought if she broke the vacuum, then I wouldn't have to clean anymore. Or maybe she didn't like it when I suggested the two Westies would make nice dust mops. Lucky for Penny, Sears still sells replacement parts that fit my vacuum cleaner for a reasonable price: The cost to replace the dusting brush is coming out of her toy budget this month! In case anyone is wondering - No, she didn't eat the plastic pieces she chewed off. She just chewed them up in tiny bits and left a trail all over the house. She does the same thing with nylabones -- chews off tiny little sharp shavings and spits them out on the carpet for me to step on in my bare feet. Actually, that was why I was vacuuming last week -- and complaining about it. This was not the fir...

Just hanging around the house . . . . . . trying to keep cool . . . . . . and entertain my friends. Remember when we were Snow Dogs ? Today we are Sun Dogs. (tee hee) Thanks for visiting our blog, Penny

Check out our Pool Party Slideshow A couple of weeks ago it was sooooo hot! We were hot dogs ! We couldn't stand it anymore, so we decided to cool off with a dip in the little pool. But it took soooo long to blow up the pool, and then the water was too cold so we had to wait until the next day. But then, the water was too hot again from being in the sun all day. So we had to add some more cold water. Once we got in, it was great! Some of our water "friends" were on hand to watch: We had the Lifeguard Loofa dog, the Bikini Girl loofa dog, the Mermaid Kitten, the Bikini Girl Penguin, the Hawaiian puppy, the frog, the alligator and the fish. The water was kind of deep and touched our bellies, so we were really wet afterwards. When we got out of the pool we ran around and rolled on the towel to dry off. Here's a video of our pool party : The next morning, it was really early and we were out on the deck by ourselves, just getting a little air while Donna was making c...

We're having a heat wave here this June . . . . . . and the Westies are just too hot! We tried to fill up the pool with water to cool off our feet but there's a nice hole in it So, we decided to try the old inflatable pool, and of course, Penny and Keli wanted to help It took 3.5 hours to pump it up and about 15 minutes to fill it with a little water from the hose Of course, now the water is too cold and we have to wait for it to warm up. Wonder how long that will take in this heat? ..... to be continued See all the pool party photos in this slideshow
