FFHT...Pumpkin Edition

Hey everyone!
Wow, this is one of my favorite days of the whole month!    It's time to join The Doods; Murphy and Stanley for FFHT.        This month's inclusion is "After that I never turned my back on a pumpkin."



OKAY...GOT IT!     Here I go.....



There once was a canine named Sarge
whose ego was overly large.
He prowled by his fence
and the critters did wince.
His fierce bite kept him always in charge.

He never thought himself a bumpkin
but once he underestimated a pumpkin.
Right at him it flew
and instantly he knew
On his head it would leave a big lumpkin.

The pumpkin did bounce off his head
and the thump it made filled him with dread.
His furiends would all chuckle
it made his knees buckle.
"After that I never turned my back on a pumpkin" he said.



Oh, BWAR HAR HAR!   That was a fun one Doods.   And perfect for HowlOWeenie eve.
Be sure to check out Bentley & Pierre, Sugar, Sammy and Dory today and tomorrow.  They all have really super cool events going on.    Click to the Blogville Community Calendar for links to them and details.      There are TWO hops involved, so both are listed below!!

Snicker Saturday...WHILE SARGE IS AWAY.....

.....THE PEEPS WILL PLAY!


Hello, Blogville.
Sarge's peeps here today for your Snicker Saturday.    You might have noticed from Frankie & Ernie's blog that our Sarge went away for a few days to go visit them in their new home.

So, yesterday morning, we packed his little bag with his favorite stuff and he was ready for vacation.

 Yes, Sarge, we got everything.

Taste of the Wild canned food, bag of treats, his bowl, two toys.    Everything a pooch needs for a weekend getaway.    LOL


Then his Mamaw picked him up in the FnE Doxie Taxi.

 

Sarge seemed to think that Frankie and Ernie have one sweet ride!    

I PROMISE THERE REALLY IS A SNICKER COMING IN JUST A MINUTE!   LOL

"Bye Dad!"



WELL, now that we peeps have the place all to ourselves, we can let our hair down and enjoy some time without Mr. Sarge, King of the Hill.   LOL

 WE PLAYED WITH ALL OF HIS TOYS!        he  he  he  heeeeee

Guess what?!?   That wiggle giggle ball really is a lot of fun!   

We even played on his beloved cot and play pad.     LOL





AND WE TOOK OURSELVES FOR A WALK!

So, my parents are welcome to keep Sarge for as long as they want!    We're doing just fine.

Hugs,
Lori & Stan

HUGS

Hey everyone!
Wow, this is such an amazing and special day!    Our furiends Hailey and Zaphod thought it would be wonderful to show our love and support for our good furiends at Three Little Pugs.   See, their Dad has some bad ouchies and they could all use a HUG.

So, today bunches of us are posting bunches of HUGS to show our love for them.

 Oh, I love giving my Dad lots of hugs.

Sometimes, I even give Mom a hug.    BOL   




Stella Rose, Maggie Mae, Gussie and Deb and Butch, we surely hope this hug post gives you a big smile today.   We are all thinking of you and sending lots of healing vibes.

Grr and Woof,
Sarge, Furiend

Hello, Blogville Darlings!      Beachnut and Shelldon here to share a little of our recent meanderings with all of you, our fabulous friends.

We girls put our heads and feelers together and decided to show you some of our climbing adventures from the past few weeks.     We do so love to stretch our long and lovely leggies!  POL 

The Hands gave our crabitat a trendy new makeover and utilized these chic baskets to give us the most spectacular climbing experiences.      We adore this modern look for our living space!

Beachnut here stretching and reaching from one artistic loft to the other. 

This section of our loft is adorned with a marvelous assortment of beach decorations.   Driftwood, coconut hull pieces, shells.    Perfect for our favorite type of exploring!    

Shelldon here.   I am so very totally agog over these branches!   OMClawd I love climbing and these are the most wonderful additions to our world.

Goodness, she's right!   These are most fabulous!

We crabby girls are now spending our time hiding in our cocohut beclaws Sarge whispered to us that it was snowing in his territory this weekend!   Goodness, we hate to hear that!    We are tropical girls afterall and prefer the warmth of our crabitat.   We'll just stay right in here where The Hands have our heaters running to keep us comfy.   POL      We hope you liked getting to see us working our long and lovely leggies all around our world.    So, darlings, what have you been up to lately?

Wordless Wednesday...Autumn in my Territory

Flashback Friday....My Watery World

HEY EVERYONE!
WOW, I HAVE BEEN MISSING ALL OF YOU SOMETHING FIERCE!   MY MOM IS ALL SORTS OF FIRED AND DOGHOUSED FOR BEING SO FAR BEHIND IN MY BLOGGING.     ANYWAY, I'M BACK AND I THOUGHT I'D SHARE A FLASHBACK TO 2013 WHERE I TOLD ALL ABOUT THE WATER IN MY WORLD.      DO ANY OF YOU REMEMBER THIS ONE?

Wordless Water Hound Explained

Hey Everyone!
Wow, I had a ton of great comments for my Wordless Wednesday Water Hound post the other day!  That was where I posted pix of me in my new Radisson canoe.    I have lots of wonderful water in my territory and I love to get out in it.   Oh, BOL to those of you who asked if I'm in the Coast Guard!    BWAR HAR HAR that's too funny and I'd love to be fur real.  But, alas, I'm just a regular pooch who loves water sports.

So, here's the deal about the water.   

This is the beginning of the story.   I have a creek in my territory!   It's so nice to float down, and swim in, and fish in.   It has lots of fish including several pawesome species of trout.

 Isn't the creek beautiful?    Lots of wildlife here.

Creek

 

The creek flows down stream through my territory and ends up going under this neat bridge.  Would you believe that every Spring we get enough heavy rain that this bridge is totally and completely under water?   TRUE TRUE TRUE   You can't even see the bridge at all.    

After the creek goes past the bridge...

 

it widens out further and further and then...

 ...it flows into the Lake in my territory!   Yes, I have a lake too.   Isn't it gorgeous?

 This is me and my Dad going for a little wading at the marina and boat launch for my Lake.

Lake

Lake

We're not done yet!    Next, the lake ends at a Dam.   It's a whopper and it controls the water.  The U.S. Corps of Engineers makes sure that the right amount of water is allowed out of the lake.   It comes out here...

Wow, look at that fast-running current!   It can be dangerous too right here at the opening.

This is called the Outflow.   It is the water that flows-out from the dam.
Right past that danger sign, the water continues on its path.   It's on a journey fur sure!
This outflow of water runs for about 1.75 miles on through my territory. 
My Wordless Wednesday post was me and my peeps in my new canoe halfway down this outflow.  It's a little slower moving here and safe for canoodling and some swimming.  But it is still moving!

My canoe trip in the outflow.

The water continues from the outflow and runs right into a River!    Yes, I even have a river right here in my territory.    This is where the outflow joins the Allegheny River.

The red arrows are the Outflow coming down to meet the yellow arrows which show the Allegheny River.




And the river flows right past the ginormous hill where I live.   This is what it looks like from the end of my road.

WHAT A VIEW!    Isn't that beautiful?   

We get to see this every time we leave our hill or return to our hill.

Here it is in the heavy morning fog.   The Allegheny River is right down there continuing to move water on until it joins with the Monongahela River and forms the Ohio River in downtown Pittsburgh.   That's about 150 miles away from here though.



So, that's the whole story of the water in my territory.   Creek flows into lake, lake ends at the dam, dam lets water through and becomes the outflow, outflow runs into the river.   Cool huh?!?  And it's all very fun for boating, fishing, swimming and stick fetching.  BOL  I'm such a lucky water hound.


Do you have water in your territory?
