What's your dog's song or songs ?

The question was what song(s) or song titles match up to your dog's different personality quirks? (The songs lyrics don't have to match up to your dog ... just the title)

Toffee's song would be James Taylor & Carole King - You've Got a Friend
Because he totally believes everyone and everything is his friend :)

Teddy's song would be The Doo-Dads - The Ball Song
Self explanatory really , he is ball obssessed :D

and Gypsy's song would be Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run
Because thats what this girl loves to do :)

Silly Girl , lmao

Most of the pressies are under the tree , but I added a couple more earlier this evening , one of which was a new coat which was in a xmas bag (you know the kind of bag I mean , gaily decorated , with a snowman on the front , and it has handles)

Gypsy came in after a while ... and jumped on the sofa and started growling , snarling and generally being quite aggressive towards the tree area
Didnt take me long to work out she was scared of that pressie ... so I held the bag and coaxed her towards it ... after a few tentative sniffs (and quite a lot of her jumping away from the dangerous article) she has now relaxed and is treating it as just another thing in HER room

Ive always known you were strange , but c'mon Gypsy , a xmas pressie , lmao

Poor Humiliated Doggies

Gypsy showing what she thinks of all this xmas lark

We were deserted For 5 whole hours * gasp *

(Toffee says) - Yes , they unashamedly abandoned us in the house for THAT long while they all went off somewhere strange called the Zoo

(Teddy says) - Tell them about how we had no treats or playtime with Mum

(Toffee says) - im getting to that Teddy , shut up ................... so as I said , there the three of us were , left alone to fend for ourselves with no treats , poor Gypsy just gave up and went and lay down on the bed , Teddy ran around with his tennis ball , but as no-one was there to play with him he went and sulked on the chair , and me , well I stared out the window from the stairs for HOURS and HOURS 

They did eventually come home and seeing as we are a forgiving lot of course we made a huge fuss of them

Here are some pics of where they had been

(Gypsy says) - Heres Louise doing her impression of a Galapogas Turtle ... I wonder if you can chase them 

(Teddy says) - Mum said this animal ducked their head just as she took the pic

(Toffee says) - and this is what the spectaculed Bear thought of having his piccie took ... pretty much the same as how I feel about the camera I reckon

(Gypsy says) No way is this kitty faster than me

(Toffee says) This birdie is really pretty

Playtime on the field

Just some pics of the Amigo's , doing what they do best .... playing :)

Grumpy Jamie , he's such a love 99% of the time :)

And the result , lol

Im such a bad Mum :(

Ive let my personal life make me so sad and forgetful ... it was my babygirls 3rd Birthday yesterday and I forgot , wahhhhhhh

My sweet darling Gypsy , please forgive your naughty Mummy and know I love you more than words can express 

I know you had a good day because every day you get love , cuddles and plenty of fun and playtime you are happy

I promise to make you a chicken cake on Friday , and you , Toff and Teddy can have a doggie tea-party 

and i'll nag your Dad to get you something nice as a pressie 

Happy Belated 3rd Birthday my gorgeous Gypsy

Come on , own up ... which one of you was it ?

So I got peckish around 10pm and decided to make myself a chicken and mayo sandwich 

Made it up , and then went to the fridge for the milk for a coffee ... turned around and there was my roll , on the floor being wolfed down by three very happy doglets

Without knowing exactly which dog it was that counter surfed and got the butty off the plate I couldnt do much more than stare as the last piece was gobbled up 

whats even worse , it was the last of the chicken and im still peckish :(

Without a care in the world

My happy smiling boy Toffee

If I ever needed to know was it possible to smile and hold a stick ? ... well Toffee just answered that question for me , yes you can , lol

(did you know if you click the pictures on here they will enlarge , you get to see them better then)

Just a quick update

Toff was fine all day and last night & his poo this morning was normal ...I'd say we got lucky 

i'll still watch him today but im def feeling more relaxed about his health than I was yesterday

I just took this pic , bless him his paws are twitching , he must be dreaming

Im so angry right now

Just let the dogs into the garden as usual ... I noticed Toffee over in the corner eating something .... almost as soon as id spotted him he started to choke.
I rushed over , noticed a whole chicken carcass on the ground and wise or not stuck my hand into his mouth and managed to find a chicken bone that had lodged in his throat

To say im p****d off is an understatement
Who in hell would throw a cooked chicken carcass into someones garden ?
and why ?

My poor gorgeous dog could have died , it doesnt bear thinking about

I started shaking almost as soon as id got the bone out and havent stopped yet , though now its more from anger than anything else

The vet said to keep an eye on him for 24 hours and to check his poo for any irregularities or blood

I swear , I ever find the a*****e who threw a cooked chicken carcass into my garden there will be blood

Now Teddy is a winner :D

Teddy just won BC star for the day on another pet forum im a member of , All Border Collies 

I have such awesome dogs :)

The prize is knowing he is special , which is great , now everyone knows what I already knew , lol

My gorgeous lad

Gypsy won a contest :D

Pet Forum.co.uk , of which im a member , hold a monthly contest for best picture ... I entered this one of Gypsy and she won , yay
I've always said she was a supermodel girlie :D

She earned herself a £25 pets at Home voucher ... so we took her to spend it today :)
she was good as gold in the store , except when she pinched a bone off the rack ... and yes we bought it for her , lol

Not a bad haul for such a little girlie
Woof Woof Thank-you Pet Forum members

A motorized ball (forgot to buy batteries so she'll have to wait to play with this) apparently it
zooms all over the place and changes direction , she's gonna go nuts at it , lol

I call this the Thing , mainly cos I have no idea what it is , but all the dogs will enjoy fetching
it
