Happy Valentine's Day!

 Hey, what's up, dogs?  Today is February 14th, and that means...

It's Valentine's Day!  We got a letter in the mail a few days ago, and judging from the illustration on the envelope, I'm pretty sure I know who it's from...

...Yep, I was right.  This card comes from Jerry and Ben.  Thanks, and Happy V-Day to you too, fellas!

And, of course, Happy Valentine's Day to all of you out there, as well.  I WOOF you very much!

Hope you have a great day!

Prize!

 Hey, what's up, dogs?  Jerry and Ben sent me a prize  from their Halloween costume contest this year!  How exciting!

It's a Starbucks card!  Nice.  I'll have to avoid the  chocolatey and caffeinated treats, but I'm sure my human can find something tasty for me.  Thanks J & B!  

Happy Belated Halloween!....and some delayed correspondence...

 Hey, what's up, dogs?  Good to see all of you again...it's been a while!  I realized I neglected to post about my Halloween costume a few days ago, so here it is...

And from another angle...

I'm dressed as the main character from one of my human's favorite Disney animated movies.  Hope everyone is having an "oo-de-lally!" kind of day!

I also want to mention a couple of mailings I got since my last post.  Jerry and Ben sent me a postcard in July (yes, I know, JULY, and here we are in NOVEMBER.  Blame my secretary) telling me about their trip to Isle Royale National Park.  Despite the picture on the postcard, they did not see any moose.

Hey, I have a question...if the plural of goose is "geese," shouldn't the plural of moose be "meese"?  Just wondering...Thanks for the postcard, guys.

More recently, I got a card from Sandy, giving me an update on his recent adventures.  Lots of pretty floral stickers here, which he got from his Gramma.  Also note the signature Sandy postage stamp.  Good stuff!

Thanks, Sandy!  Tell your Gramma she has excellent taste in stickers.

Well, that's all for now.  What did you guys dress up as for Halloween?...

Postcard from Devil's Tower...

 Hey, what's up, dogs?  Catching up with some correspondence...I received this postcard from Jerry and Ben last month, but didn't get around to posting it till now.  

I have never been to the Black Hills or Devil's Tower...time to visit Wikipedia!

Hmmm...looks like our intrepid bear friends must have been in South Dakota and Wyoming.  Gotta love those wide open spaces!

Thanks for the postcard, you guys!

Mail from J & B

 Hey, what's up, dogs?  Just wanted to show off a little something that came in the mail some time ago.  It's from Jerry and Ben...they sent a prize for my entry in their 2020 Halloween costume contest!

A Starbucks card!  Sweet!  I will have to bug my human to take me there and get a dog-friendly treat.  Thanks Jerry and Ben!  You guys are the best.  

Mail call

Hey, what's up, dogs?  Jerry and Ben have sent a card and a prize for my participation in their Halloween costume contest.  

I really like the card.  Those trick-or-treaters look petrified.  And there's a Starbucks gift card for me, so I can get a (non-caffeinated) treat.  

Thanks guys!  You always do a great job hosting the contest...

Christmas cards

Hey, what's up, dogs?  Just a quick post to show off some mail I got recently.  The Christmas correspondence has begun!  

Here we have Little Fox's "Happy New Year" wish...it's a photo of Chinatown from when he was off "finding himself" earlier this year.  I wonder if he "found himself" chowing down in some good Chinese eateries?

And here's a cute polar bear card from Jerry and Ben.  This bear looks well bundled against the winter cold.  Then again, polar bears are supposed to be adapted to freezing temperatures, right?  

Thanks for the holiday wishes!

 

Angus' costume contest prize

Hey, what's up, dogs?  My human handed me a piece of mail a few days ago... 

 So, being a logical dog, I opened it.

Oh hey, this is Jerry and Ben's prize package for Grandpa Angus' Halloween costume entry!  Hey Grandpa!  

"What is it, laddie?" Grandpa asked. 

You've got mail!  

Look, here's a postcard of Minnesota...organized by regional "hot dishes."  Wow.  I never knew Minnesota was casserole country.

There's also a Starbucks gift card. 

"Eh, how thoughtful!" Grandpa said.  "Now I can get a caffeinated treat.  Care to share, laddie?"

Er...thanks, Grandpa, but I'd better pass.  Caffeine doesn't really agree with me.

Thanks again, Jerry and Ben, for hosting the contest!  See you next time...

Postcard!

Hey, what's up, dogs?  Look what I received in the mail a few days ago. 

It's from Jerry and Ben!  They recently took a vacation to beautiful, sunny Puerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrto Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrico. 

My human seems jealous of my ability to rrrrrrrrrrroll my Rrrrrrrrrrrrr's.  Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreally?  You can't rrrrrrrrrroll them?  Therrrrrrrrrre's nothing to it.  Just rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrelax....

....Nope.  Not happening.  My poorrrrrrrrrrr human.  Ah well, nobody's perrrrrrrrrrrrfect.

(Also...please rrrrrrrrrrrrrememberrrrrrrrrrrrrr...one week frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrom today is the deadline for the K-9 Comedy Contest.  Haven't had many entrrrrrrries yet, but you still have time!)

See you laterrrrrrrrrr...

Thanks for the cards!

Hey, what's up, dogs?  We recently got some Valentine's Day cards from Sandy (left) and Jerry & Ben (right).  Both are super cute!  Thanks, guys!

Postcards from the edge

Hey, what's up, dogs?  

When my human suggested the title of today's post, I got really confused.  "Postcards from the edge"?  From the edge of *what*, exactly?...

Oh.  Well, the postcards are from Jerry and Ben, who are visiting Sandy up in Vancouver.  So the "edge" must mean...the edge of Canada?...

Who knows.  What's more important is that these three seem to be having a great time together.  Sandy has been logging their adventures here.  I wonder how much longer Jerry and Ben are staying up in Canada?...

 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hey, what's up dogs?  I'm here to wish you all a very happy Valentine's Day!  

Here, have a rose, on me.  

Also, I got this card in the mail from Jerry and Ben last week.  Isn't it cute?  Thanks you guys!

Holiday mail call

Hey, what's up, dogs?  Welcome back to the blog.  It's a brand new year!  

Patch, Spunky, and I all want to wish you a Happy New Year.  We got a lot of holiday cards over the last few weeks (more than our human, heh heh), so we're going to review them all now.  Here we go...

First, we have Little Fox's beautiful glossy photo card.  The picture made us think of spring!  Thanks Little Fox. 

Next up--Jerry and Ben's card, which showed them doing all sorts of fun winter activities!  Nice card J & B.

Then there's this card from Ajdin & Co.  It came, of course, with a small pot of honey.  It's also signed by the whole crew.   

Wow, Miss Feathers has beautiful penmanship.  I wonder how long it took Ooogie to sign his name?...  

Last, but not least--Sandy Bear sent us a card and a package.  It's a Scrabble tile word puzzle!  

 

Can we make all the words?  Our brains are a little mushy from the holidays, so this'll be good for us. 
Give us a moment. 

.....

.....

.....

(Um, give us another moment.)

.....

.....

...We did it!  Thanks, Sandy!  Hope everybody has a great first week of the year! 

 

You've got mail!...

Hey, what's up, dogs?  I'm receiving more and more mail lately, and I wanted to share it with you.  Recently we got a package with a little drawing of two bears on the back, as shown here:

This can only mean it's from Jerry and Ben!  Wow, they sent a certificate and candy prizes from the Halloween costume contest they sponsored.  Hot diggity dog!

There's also a sheet of stickers, a pencil, and a jack-o-lantern eraser.  That's so cool!  Thanks guys.

And Sandy sent a postcard with a picture of the Yukon.  He mentions that we stuffies should go there and pan for gold.  Gold => money => ability to buy bacon, so I'm all for it.  When do we leave Sandy?...

   

Happy Halloween!

Hey, what's up, dogs?  Just a quick post to wish you all a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!  

Here's a picture of my costume.  This year I decided to dress up as...THE "BARK" KNIGHT.

 

Apparently it was well received.  A few days ago, Jerry and Ben notified me that I'd won a prize in their Annual Halloween Costume Contest!  Thanks very much guys!   

Hope everybody has a very fun and very safe Halloween this year...
