Sharing - Part 2

Hi pals, Mei-Ling here...

Today I am going to talk about sharing, again.  Puffy and I have several beds that we can sleep in.  The round, red beds that I showed you in the first Sharing post that momma has on top of her bed.   And then, there are the two beds that are kept on the floor so when momma doesn't want to share her bed with us (seems like momma could use some lessons on sharing also), anyhow,  can sleep in the ones on the floor.

I invited myself to share Puffy's bed with him - he didn't mind at all - BOL

Sharing 05/30/15

Hello pals, Mei-Ling Star here,

I wanted to show you how good I am at sharing...

This is Puffy's bed that sits on top of Momma's bed.  I'm teaching Puffy the importance of sharing.

Here are some stuffies that Puffy had before I moved in.  Again, I'm teaching Puffy the importance of sharing. 

 

Here Puffy is playing with his favorite stuffie, Mr. Froggy.  As you can see, Puffy hasn't quite gotten the hang of sharing as he doesn't want to let me have the stuffie.

 

 "No, No Puffy, you are supposed to let me play with your stuffies."  As you can see, this was an older picture because I was just a tiny pup, but the lessons had to start early so I could establish that sharing is good.

"Lesson, smession - Mr. Froggy is MINE.  No little pip squeak is going to take my froggy away."

 

And here is a really important sharing lesson.  Make sure you share the blame when the humans think you did something wrong.  "Ripped paper?  What ripped paper?"

"It wasn't me - Puffy must have done it."

 

It's a good thing I'm such a nice guy as I let Mei-Ling THINK she is getting away with all kinds of stuff, but we all know who the real trouble maker is in my house, and it isn't me.

 

We have a green house 05/28/25

Hi pals, Puff Darby here...

Daddy spent a lot of time putting together a green house for growing veggies:

 

I don't know why they call it a green house - it isn't green...Just saying...

 

 

 

Flooding

Hi pals, Puff Darby here...and that annoying, bossy and barking Mei-Ling.

To Finley and Whitley, I am loading our car with a bunch of inner tubes and headed your way.  We aren't flooded down here so why not pack a bag and come to New Mexico for a spell?  I must tell you that it is raining here, but nothing like what Texas and Oklahoma have been getting.  We have lots of  good food for you to eat, in fact, we can go round up a couple of cattle and have fresh meat.  If you don't like beef but prefer fresh chickens, several of the residents in our community have chickens.  I don't know where they are, but with our noses I'm sure we can find them.  I'll get out the BBQ and we can have a good ole time.  Don't forget to include some stuffies in your bag.

You can play in our courtyard where you will be safe from wild animals...

 

My bossy fursister Mei-Ling wouldn't leave me alone until I posted a picture - "what Mei-Ling"?  Sorry, a Pretty picture of her.

What has been going on 05/23/15

Hi pals, Mei-Ling here...

Surely I don't need to tell everyone that the lack of blog entrees is momma's fault.  Puffy and I have had a talk with her and told her not only are our pals wondering what has happened to us (Hi Zoe), but we have been curious about what wonderful things and not so wonderful things (sending sincere condolences to Goose's family during this heartbreaking time).  So here is what we have been up to:

The weather here in New Mexico has been full of surprises.  We had some really nice sunny day, that made momma get outside and start her garden.  Big mistake as mother nature threw in a couple of snow storms our way and all of the tomatoes died.

Here is our court yard that has snow all over it.  It snowed so hard that our pretty Crab Apple tree got weighed down and bent all the way over so it touched the top of the tree ring - momma had to go outside and shake the snow off the limbs so it could stand up again.

t

 This is how momma tried to protect some of the plants she had planted the day before (It had been a really nice, sunny week). 

 The onions didn't mind the snow, in fact, they thrived with the extra water.

Here is my furbrother Puffy out in the snow.

 

Of course, I couldn't forget to post one of my pretty pictures while I was in the snow.

 

 This picture was taken the day before it snowed.  We love our grass even though it is fake. The humans put it down right before it snowed so mud wouldn't be tracked into the house.  They plan on installing it correctly this summer so it lays flat - BOL.

Yup, the fake grass needs to be fixed.

We now have a really nice swing that Puffy and I like to sit on.  It took momma days to try to assemble it, finally daddy had to come and put it together.

 

On the cold, snowy days, my furbrother Puffy likes to stay cuddled up in bed.

 

Here I am modeling my new tutu dress.  Aren't I cute?

 

Puffy doesn't like to play to much anymore because he is old and as momma puts it "falling apart", so guess what?  They are looking for another Shih Tzu puppy so I can have my very own little pal to chase and play with. 

 

Hugs and kisses,

 

Mei-Ling Star 



 

Call me Empress Mei-Ling Star 03/03/15

Hi everyone, long time no bark!  I could sit here and make up excuses, but we all know it's momma's fault so why bother?  Momma says she is still having problems writing the blog because of Coco's passing, but I say, IT"S TIME TO MOVE ON - Now, lets tell everyone about ME!!!

I'm now a big beautiful girl.  My registered name at the American Kennel Club is "Arizona Empress Mei-Ling Star".  Pretty snazzy if I do say so myself.

Here I am with my pretty hair bow that has a crown right in the center of it...

Being royalty has it's draw backs..

 Bath day and combing makes me pretty unhappy but it's the price one has to pay to be beautiful...

Not one of my better pictures but wait until you see the finished product...

This is me with my skulls bow - I'm trying to look tuff...

Come on, admit it, I'm really cute!!!!

Here are some of my hair bows - momma really likes the one that says "Kisses 25 cents" - BOL...

The bows with the barrette holders on them are not my favorites because they are hard to get off.  Momma is in the process of changing all of the barrette holders for alligator holders with teeth because they are easier to put in and remove. 

Bobcat alert 01/15/15

Hi pals, Puffy here...

This morning daddy came hurrying over to momma and told her to come with him.  Momma followed daddy and so did Mei-Ling and I, into daddy's bedroom to his sliding glass door.  Daddy opened the door and told momma not to let us out, then pointed to some trees and told momma there was a Bobcat over there.  Momma looked and looked but didn't see anything so she went back inside but daddy came back and again motioned to momma to follow him.  By now, momma was thinking maybe daddy had fallen out of his bed and hit his head and was "seeing things", but no, when daddy pointed again, yup, there was a big bobcat.

Daddy said it came right up to the sliding glass door and was looking inside his bedroom.  Momma went back inside and grabbed her camera but the bobcat has left so she then tried to get photos of it's footprints but the glare of the sun off the snow didn't allow for good pictures.

Now daddy is saying that we won't be allowed outside except for in our courtyard although he admits that a bobcat would have no problems jumping our 6 foot wood fence.
