Ever since I have known my husband he has been really into shooting and other military type past times. He loves to spend a lot of his Saturday mornings at a near by shooting range and when her can’t get out he spends a lot of time searching the net for military accessories and clothing websites. In fact as much as I love shopping online and surfing for new things for the house, he loves shopping for guns and accessories. His most recent find that brought the UPS truck to our house was 5.11 Tactical Pants from his favorite web site, La Police Gear.com and he couldn’t be happier.
Do you know what this Friday is ???? June 20th ?
Pet Sitters International estimates that as many as 10,000 companies in the United States and Canada opened their doors to employees’ dogs during the annual event held last June.
That’s all Roxy needs to hear and she is grabbing her purse and ready to go!
Hmmm ? I wonder what happened here ?
Some one looks guilty ...
Ok, forgiven!
I am such a push over for those basset smooches.
Some times I look at her and in those eyes and I can’t believe how much I love her.
Yes, some one here pulled all of the stuffing out of her bed and will getting another new one some time this weekend. Until then she will just have to just sleep on the floor.
I know life is hard when you are a princess basset hound.
Roxy was in rare form this morning. First she woke me up way too early. Not even to go out side, she just wanted to wake me up to wake me up. Then not only did she swipe some of my daughters breakfast. She got a hold of mine, ran under the dinning room table and ate my English muffin with peanut butter before I even knew what happened. Good thing she is so darn cute!
Roxy was happy to have my nephew sleep in the living room last night. As soon as she saw the mattress on the floor she was in heaven. Until she realized she had to share. Then she did some real sucking up before trying to take it over. A few times throughout the night the hound won and my nephew ended up off the bed.
There’s no arguing with royalty.
Home work helper or pizza thief ?
When it comes to a hound they will do any thing for a taste of pizza! Even pose as a sincere home work helper.
Roxy says she knows her daddy loves her! How? Because he gave her this tub of ice cream to finish off the other night after dinner.
You should have seen the look of joy in her eyes when she was done licking it clean and seen the sticky mess on the tips of her ears.
It was all smiles this morning hanging out with Roxy and Rebecca. Roxy is doing so good with the baby. She even let Rebecca play with her ears.
Roxy wants to send out a great big arroooo to her newest partner in crime, Bert .
What a handsome hound he is !

Roxy has been non stop barking for almost an hour. We are having pizza for dinner and the smell is just driving her crazy. She is not giving hope of getting her share. Which is zero this time around. Poor girl is acting like she is going to die. I am such a mean Basset momma. All she has for dinner is a bowl of kibble with gravy on it.
But still she sits here barking and licking her lips in hope of a slice.
This last photo cracks me up. The look in Roxy’s eyes is like she is thinking “oh please, this little girl is so easily amused, it’s just my ear”.
Roxy has been known to guard the oven door while dinner cooks inside. She some times will lay down on the kitchen floor waiting, she’ll get up pace around and even if it smells worth it she will let out some loud howls. There is just no budging her out of the kitchen some times until dinner is ready and she finds out if any of it belongs to her. Which of course most of the time it doesn’t but my girl continues to have high hopes each time.
Waiting for spring.
I love the scent of lavender when it comes to lotions or even candles. Now I am in love with this new naked naturals shampoo for color treated hair. I bet I have tried a bout a dozen shampoos over the last six months and still not found one that works well for my hair. I need the protection from coloring but they tend to either make my hair feel weighted down or waxy. I hate it when I look in the mirror an hour after doing my hair and it looks like I just crawled out of bed because my hair is too waxy to hold a style.
So when I received a sample of Naked Naturals, Awapuhi & Lavender natural shampoo for color treated hair in the mail I wasn’t too excited at first to try it. Well, I finally started using it and can not believe how much I like the way it makes my hair feel and smell. I think I finally found the shampoo I have been looking for. Checking out their web site at http://www.nakednaturals.com not only does this shampoo make my hair look, smell and feel wonderful but it is an all natural product, which I love. Also I read that using it makes hair up to 7x stronger. That is exactly what I have been looking for because I need all the help I can get while styling my hair against breakage. I can’t believe how much breakage I have going on some days when I am getting ready for work. I’ll be sticking with Naked Naturals for now so I can stop stressing about it.

I was just saying that I can’t believe how quiet Allison and Roxy are being this afternoon. No yelling, barking or running through the house. It’s just not like them!
I think Roxy is really coming around and getting better with Allison. Then I thought, I have been really busy so I better check up on them. Things are just way too quiet.
This is what I found! The two of them in the same chair with a bag of popcorn and watching a movie. How sweet.
I should have known that if things are too quiet, there is either trouble going on or there is sharing of food. That is just the way my hound works when Allison is home all day.
Things have been pretty quiet around here, hound wise. It’s been freezing rain and snowing all week. Not much for a short legged hound to do.Throwing the ball in the house for a while is just not the same.
I think we are all ready for spring.
