Toni's Birthday Bliss!!!

Technically, Toni's birthday isn't until tomorrow. But we decided to throw her a little party tonight. Toni got a special beef and cheese "cake" topped with a cookie. She grabbed the "cake" off of the plate before we could even sing Happy Birthday to her and ate it in 10 seconds!!!

Toni also got a present that Calvin picked out for her. It is a big silly looking dodo bird stuffed toy. She no sooner got it out of the bag that Calvin jumped up and tried to steal it from her. Toni gave him a big nasty growl and Calvin flung himself on top of the dodo bird and wouldn't let her have it! Gary consoled Miss Toni and gave her a hug and the dodo bird was long forgotten.

1 basenji birthday down, 2 more to go!

Brrr...It's Cold Outside

The days are starting to get colder here and I had to breakout the matching coats Sondra sent for Calvin and Toni. They look so darn cute! Now when they go out trying to catch the wrasscly wrabbits (or squirrels) they are the most stylish little hunting dogs.
Plus the dogs get sooooo many complements which they love!

Halloween Hound

In the true spirit of Halloween, I made the dogs do some tricks before they got their treats. And by tricks, I mean I dressed them up. Miss Toni got to wear the pumpkin hat and Calvin went as a spooky bat! Toni was a little concerned by the constant stream of trick-or-treaters (some who came by to check out the dog's costumes) so she ended up hiding out in my bed. Calvin had a blast and was soooooo excited by the trick-or-treaters he kept trying to escape to greet them. I ended up taking him out to stop by his furry friends' houses and the little devil ended up with a bag of snausages, dried chicken, and bacon strips! When we got home I made him share his loot with Happy + Toni.
