YULETIME





YES I am nearly 15 years old and Yes! I am tired. But our Yuletide gifts came yesterday and today and I became a puppy again .

Izzy's sister Nera Luna came over the other day. She ran around crazy for a day. Arabella keeps correcting her but Nera just wants to play. She got gifts as well.

Daddy told me that  the blue bed is my new bed and I love it! we each got fancy  new beds and I got an igloo with penguins inside- I pilled them out immediately - no one else could figure it out!

Mummy says Nera needs to keep her collar on because they would not be able to tell everyone apart.
I guess there's something to be said about sniffing  butts......we never get confused!


Souris and I like to sleep by the fire at night. This was before all our goodies came.

Izzy and Nera played with the Giant Lamb that I secretly found the other day. Mummy said it was a gift from one of her student's dogs ( Georgia)  to all of us. I let the puppies play with him- but we all know IT IS MINE.

Daddy gave out the  gifts as we all waited patiently for our turns.
Patience is a virtue




For me?







Daddy wasn't very fast about it but we got our gifts in the end and nice big bones as well!


Nera has calmed down and doesn't pee a  ig puddle in the kitchen like she did the first day.I don't mind her too much but now there are five of us and Annika is coming too....

My toe still hurts and I am still coughing  a  bit but I am happy. I AM NOT HAPPY about this very cold weather or the ice on the ground. I live in my jumper these days.....

      Nera being calm and sweet






















Izzy and Nera played so much that they put themselves in the kitchen crates for a  nap

Tonight Daddy gave us stockings full of toys and we were so excited that we played for hours.

I think Mummy is tired of collecting all our toys every time we play. It is too cold to go outside to play so.......

OH! SO MANY TOWELS ON THE FLOOR!

Image
The rains are unending these days and the towels on the floor catching leaks from the skylights and catching muddy wet puppy paws are unending too. Father gives us treats and dries us off but there is not much else to do in these dreary days. I try to keep Dusty calm and happy but we are all wet and sad for the weather. Dusty keeps asking Mother when the skies will stop crying. But I don't think  it will stop any time soon.   May your days be filled with peace my friends...

THE BEANS FIRST VET VISIT

Image
It was early in the morning when Mother and Father loaded the Beans into the crates in the car and headed to the Doctor's place. They were put into a big tub and waited for the Doctor to come into the room. They were very good except for pooping in the tub. First up was Hope. She checked out  and got her microchip and her first shot. Oh and they each got some stinky cheese from a can. Dusty was up next. Onyx was next- she did not mind getting her eyes and ears checked out. Sunnie was next- she really liked the vet tech who was very gentle with all the puppies. Ali was next- none of the puppies cried when they were jabbed. Prince was an absolute sweetheart. Midnight loved the stinky cheese the most. The puppies went right outside in the warm sunshine. Mia was so glad her puppies were home I am secretly glad they are back too. The beans napped for a few hours Everyone kept watch over them. Until it was lunchtime and they ate nearly everything. Then Mia cleaned up. They still nurse on

THE DAY OF DEAFENING QUIET

It all happened so fast. We did not know, I did not know. No one really knew but Souris knew. She knew it was her time to run free and find her Moula.                                                       My name is Arabella Castellabate . I am Souris sister by association. I am named after my Mum's grandfather's town in Italy. I am Mother to eleven puppies including Izzy, Mia and Raven. Mia is actually related to Souris. It is with a broken heart that I take the reins of the blog from Souris. I hope I can honour her with my writing. It was just like any other morning though it was raining still. Mother gave us chewing bones before she went to school. Souris wrote her blog and slept on all the rugs that Mum and Dad put on the floors to help Souris not slip. I stood and watched Mum and Dad talk and get upset and a phone call and I knew I was losing my sister. Mum and Dad snuggled and comforted all of us. Souris assured us she would be in a better place soon. I am not so sure bec
