Pinch-Snassler




This led to a very short (and for Stella, an unfulfilling) low-impact snasslin' session.
Before long I was all snassled out.

Stella wasn't finished with her snasslin', so what did she do? She recruited our hooman girl to snassle a little more with her. I'm going to warn you. It's pretty high impact stuff!
Eventually, even Stella was satisfied.

This week we're sending all of our good snassle-induced vibes to all of our friends who are sick, needing comfort, or just needing a little extra love! If you're one of those friends, we hope you feel it! And special thanks to our hooman girl for standing in for me on the snasslin' front. We couldn't have done it this week without you!

Snasslin' for our Buds





Today we are generating all kinds of good vibes and goober love to send to directly to Huskee & Hershey's sweet mama Shane and their dad Mark. They grieve over Baby Chloe, who is now with her brother Angel Lucas. Please go by and give them some love if you can.

Tongue




Here's one of me with my sweet Ami (Asta's mommi) in New York City. She doesn't seem to mind that I slimed her in this photo.
Yes. My tongue has been all over the place, but so has Stella's. Here are a few of her pics. This is her signature, "How's my nose taste?" photo.

Nose tasting while sporting a different hairestyle.
Tongue while meeting friends. (Hi Jake & Fergi.)
Nose tasting again.

There are hundreds of more tongue photos where these came from, but you get the idea. So, if you want to enter, just post a photo of yourself showing off your tongue, then go over the the Rocky Creek Scotties' blog and leave a comment telling them to come by to see it. That's it. You're entered. You better hurry, though. The contest will be over when they make their 100th post (and that's coming up)! Even if you don't want to enter the contest, go on by and say hi. They're a hoot.
Goober love,

Squeally Cute

She's just 8 weeks old and her belly has already dropped almost to the ground. Don't let that fool you, though. Her figure is still considered svelte for a piggy. See that indentation just in front of her back leg?


Stella fell in love and followed Priscilla all over the place trying to maneuver for a good sniff.

Stella even got close enough to get a little taste. (I reminded Stella that Priscilla is NOT on her RAW diet.)

Puggle Snuggle



She put her head against the fence and said, "bring on the snugglin'!"

She was so energized by her snuggle session that she had herself a refreshing roach in the cool grass.

As a sign of solidarity Stella had herself a nice roach in the grass...

... and obviously hit a good spot!

Today, to honor Izzy's first snuggle, we direct all the good vibes she and Stella generated to all of our sick pals out there, like, Jackson, Randi, and Asta's parents' friend Anna Marie! We're also hoping that JB's dog brother, Bear, makes it home safely soon. We hope you feel the love!

Blue Goober

And he splits his time between watching out the window for dog blogging friends to drop by unexpectedly....
I feel for the big goober. Oh, the agony of not being able to snap him out of his stupor!

Rant of the Diminutive Princess


Stanley's been taunting me since I got home with all of these stories about HIS friends he got to visit and all of the Airedmiration HE got on the road. Well, I told him that it was time to clear the Aire before I had to open up my own can of whoopass on him.
As you can imagine, that made our reunion more than a little cold.
Our girl kept trying to get us to smooch and make up. When I refused, she tried to get us to play a little tug to break the tension.
You talking to us??
Sometimes all you can do is humor the hooman girl.
I saw this as a detestable labor of love for her. I wasn't going to enjoy it, though.
Come on, Goober Boy! At least try to make it look convincing.
Maybe if you moved a little bit...
Are you going to work with me or not?
That's more like it, you big, hairy goober!
Now grunt a little like you're trying.
Oh, well, please TRY to look a little more bored, would you?
My girl seems to finally be coming around to my way of thinking. If it wasn't for her I'd be moving back in with Hercules' family for awhile. They know how to treat a sassy princess like me right! Any suggestions?

Petey & Sophie & Asta, OH MY!


His mama (Auntie Jane) looks like she's trying to work some type of healing on me in this photo, but really she's just giving me some very relaxing scritches.
We went right from scritches into the Goober Mind Meld.
Eventually I had to relinquish my claim to Auntie Jane so Asta could get some share of the lovin'.
Auntie Jane tried to convince me that Asta & Petey are like brother and sister, but I really don't see the resemblance.
We all felt at home with each other right away, and in no time Petey was sporting his mohawk for us (it's his fave 'do when at the beach). He had us all cracking up!

and loses all sense of personal space. (My girl didn't care, though. She's a BIG Asta fan!)

Sophie showed us one of the stupid hooman tricks she's been teaching her mom. She said her mom can actually put 3 balls in her mouth at once.
Petey ~ communing with the ball.
We tried several times to get a group shot of us at the run together. My powers of persuasion were not enough to entice my sweet Asta to leave her holy roller ball for the photo op.
It's pretty obvious who is not cooperating in this photo.
Plus, she gets my sense of humor.

He's an eldercat, but you'd never know it. He acts like a wee kitten.
He even gave a kiss to Sophie's mama, Sherry.
Goob love,
Stanley

Connecticut LoveFest
I hit it off with Mitch from the start. He and Maggie suggested we take a walk around their place.
Their yard is SO HUGE, and it has a pond and this very cool stream that Mitch's dad said I could play in. I didn't waste any time getting myself into that bootifully cold water.
Sophie also took some time to splash around and explore.
To put her at ease I got up and prepared to get out of the stream...
... only to find that Asta was thinking about getting in for a dip.
Maggsie & Mitch share their pond with a very special lady ~ I don't remember her name but she swam around like she owned the place.
I had been loving my time in the city, but was really enjoying getting back in touch with nature again.
After a short discussion with her divabud, Asta decided to go and see if she could entice Mitch to a little game of bitey face.
Sophie actually snuck in a little power nap in between all the mutual admiration that was going on between her & Maggie.
That was not the only lovefest happening. Asta got some good lovin' from her daddi (but didn't let that distract her from the photo op).
Even though we got to Maggie & Mitch's house too late to go hike up Sleeping Giant, we still had a BLAST getting to hang out with Maggie & Mitch, getting to meet their parents George and Sue (who absolutely love me, by the way), and getting to run around their barn and yard! It was a great way to top off our weekend getaway. Maggie, Mitch, Sue, & George, thanks for all the great food and the fun, but most of all thanks for making us all feel at home! You're completely gooberlicious and we LOVE YOU!
