Baby Love



Hey Everyone!
Wow, this is a really fun day!    I'm joining my new furiend Sammy for his event called Baby Love.   If you don't know him, click the link.   To pawticipate all you have to do is post pix of you as a wee little pup or kit or chick or whatever.  BWAR HAR HAR 
So, here I am at about 4 months old...



I was such a little guy back then!
Also, that was before the snazzy digital camera, so all we have are these old style ones.
This is the magnet thingy on our refrigerator.
Thanks, Sammy, for hosting this!   You're one cool cat fur sure.



Don't forget about Safety Week coming up August 11 through August 16.
We could still use volunteers to cover the following TOPICS:  Traffic Safety,   Power/Hand Tool Safety,   Food/Drinks during the week,   Transportation during the week, and any other safety topic you can think of.   If you'd like to volunteer, leave a comment for me below or for Top Cop Sidebite.

We could still use some extra things for the PICNIC:  Maybe someone could volunteer to host a Sand Box,   a Horseshoe Pit,   a Volleyball Court,   hot air balloon rides,   or anything else that you think could fit in with the picnic.   Sasha and Ruby are handling the food/drinks.   If you'd like to volunteer, leave a comment for me below or for Top Cop Sidebite.

I could still use more entries for the PARADE:   Maybe some more floats,   vehicles,   clowns,   drill teams,   jugglers,   unicycles,   cheerleading teams,   marching bands,   horse units,   mascots,  or anything else that you think could be in a parade.   Please send your ready-to-post pix to me at   lfurman1987ATyahooDOTCOM and include your name and blog addy.

Grr and Woof,
Sarge, Police Commissioner

Crabby Monday...Safety Week Parade



Hello, Blogville Darlings!
We crabby girls are absolutely agog about the upcoming Safety Week hosted by Top Cop Sidebite and our Sarge.    On the first day of the festivities, Sarge is hosting a big parade.   He is working on all of the parade entries for all of the wonderful safety staff members and is asking for other entries from anyone interested in being in the parade lineup.   Comment below if you would like to join in.

Now, the reason we girls are agog is because we SURF JAMMERS will be performing on our very own spectacular float in the parade!    Goodness, we are clacking our claws with glee.    AND we are practicing our long and lovely leggies off to be ready to entertain the crowd.



So, friends, mark you calendars for the entire week of fun and be sure to check us out in the parade.     Oh, we'd be thrilled for you to enter too!    Sarge could use floats, vehicles, clowns, jugglers, drill teams, marching bands, etc etc etc, anything you'd see in a parade would be fabulous.   Meanwhile, we're polishing up our steel drums and brusing up on our calypso tunes.   POL

BTW:   We're not the only band...oh, goodness no...Bad Dawg Agency will be performing on a float too!!

Fractured Fryday Hairy Tails





Hey Everyone!
Wow, this is sooo much fun!   Today I'm joining my good Dood furiends Murphy & Stanley for their Fractured Fryday Hairy Tails.         Here we go....


Little Sarge Muffet
sat on a tuffet
eating his Alpo and bone.

Along came a Postpeep
and sat down in a big heap
a box sent to me all alone.

When I opened the box
I was startled to find
an unstuffie all shaped like a fox.

I stuck in my face
and pulled out in my haste
that unstuffie fox limp like a socks.

Little Sarge Horner
ran off to a corner
eating his new favorite toy.

He tore at the seam
and his face it did beam
till his Mom said you're a bad boy.

The End


 



Oh, BWAR HAR HAR this is great entertainment and I can't wait to see what all of you came up with!  Thanks so much, Doods, for inventing this neat event and I bet there will be lots more of them.

Grr and Woof,
Sarge, Pol Comm

We Are Blogville
















Hey Everyone!
Wow, I'm so excited to be joining my furiends Murphy and Stanley for "WE ARE BLOGVILLE"!

I am Sarge and I live near the Allegheny National Forest in Pennsylvania.   I was adopted from the local shelter and am basically a mutt.   Currently I am Blogville's Police Commissioner.    I share this blog with my crabby girls, hermit crabs Beachnut, Oceana and Shelldon.
Here's my post for Murphy & Stanley's event today.   
Check out this cool piece of news from my territory:






It was so sad that Rocco died in the line of duty, but what an amazing K9 Cop Hero!   It's so super that we are celebrating his life, spirit and memory by protecting our K9 furiends and placing more punishment on anyone who hurts them.   BRAVO TO PENNSYLVANIA FOR THIS NEW LAW!!


Thanks to Murphy & Stanley for today's event.
Grr and a Proud Woof,

Christmas in July Swap Pressies



Hey everyone!
Wow, I'm such a lucky pooch!   Remember awhile ago when our good furiend Sprinkles hosted her Christmas in July Pet Swap?   Well, you should, we were all invited to pawticipate and have ourselves swapped with another furiend to trade pressies with.   I've done this for several years now and it's always a ton of fun.   This year, my swap buddies are Mona & Prissy!   Wooohoooo!   They are such wonderful furiends and they posted the other day about the gifties I sent to them.

Yesterday, I received a box from them with the gifties they sent to me!   Check out the loot:



OMD I was so excited that I jumped right up on the table!   OH, YES I DID!   BOL
(Mom made me get back down....pttththth to her.)




"It's Christmas - in July"      Look at those cute dachsies!




BWAR HAR HAR    Dach the halls!    This gave me the giggles.
They gave my peeps that cool magnet and they love it bunches.



See, they like it so much that they put it right on the refrigerator next to this picture magnet of yours truly.   BOL




Oh, I can bark that those True Chews treats are delish!   I had one of those right away.
And that cool new leash meant my peeps took my for a nice walkie last night.   That's like
an extra bonus gift!   BOL





 OMD there was a big rope and tennis ball toy and this wonderful pink pig!
Love the pink pig!   He squeaks and I did zoomies around the house with him.

I'm sending a big thanks out to Sprinkles for hosting this again for us!    My furiends, you need to get in this one next year....it's a blast!
I'm sending a big thanks out to Mona & Prissy for sending me such a great box of pressies!   You are super shoppers and very good furiends!   I love all of my goodies!


Grr and a Happy Woof,

Crabby Monday...Makeover and Contest





Hello, Darlings!   We crabby girls have been so very busy giving our glorious crabitat a much needed makeover.    Having the most trendy and chic surroundings makes us feel fabulous.   If you will remember, we recently added a:
  
 Wonderful castle to one room and decorated it 
with the latest in sea-life wallpaper.   
It looks amazing and we adore it.



Then, we added a state-of-the art...
 modern computer system so that we would be in touch with the lastest
technogadgets.   For that room, we consulted an interior designer
who set us up with this feminine and lovely wallpaper.  Perfect for the PC room.




Well, for the last room of our crabitat, we pulled out all of the stops to create the most fanciful and fun room of our crabitat.   Feast your eyes on:


 our most whimsical wallpaper to date!   
Oh, we are certain that Sarge will be all agog.  
Teeheehee




 Now, there is only one final, spectacular detail missing...




 We added our own artistic and fantastical PUPPY!     
OMClawd this is such grand fun!





 We certainly feel that this is a wonderful addition to the crabitat and it definitely suits the style and theme of our Blogville adventures.   POL


So, please join us, Beachnut, Oceana and Shelldon for a fabulously fun CONTEST!   We have this new puppy sculpture and feel that it simply must have a wonderful name.   We have no earthly idea if it is a male or female, so the sky is the limit, our lovely friends.   To join the fun, simply comment your idea for a name.    We will compile them all and next week on Crabby Monday we will list them all and put the selection up to a vote.   Oh, we are clacking our claws with glee!   This is such spectacular fun!    Goodness, we can't wait to see your ideas.   Of course, the winning name will grant that friend with a wonderful prize pressie, and we classy crabby girls REALLY KNOW HOW TO SHOP!   Teeheehee

Ciao and Little Pinches,
Beachnut, Oceana, Shelldon
