Thirsty Thursday
WoW !!! a photo of me at home! Not that you can see my home. But rest assured this is me, drinking from a water bowl in the Gazebo in my front garden.
Its nearly Christmas …. so I’m going to try and get Mama to get some Christmassy photos of me and Fabi, being thirsty in a Christmassy spirit. Keep your paws crossed!

Flashback Friday
Those Pesky Squirrels …. 
Ohhhh … so long ago but I remember this as if it was yesterday. Mama only gto the kitchen door shut in time before we all piled out to “shoo” off the intruder. However. Mama knew it wouldn’t be a polite “shooing” we’d be giving this little furry critter – that’s why she shut the door on us.
Thirsty Thursday
Oh No! Is those adorable babies again. It gets every Scottie Mom feeling broody! This is a photo of my older Sister “Kelpie” when she had her first and only litter of beautiful scottie pups. There were 2 brindles as you can see and 2 black pups. The daddy of these pups was a scottie owned by Gail Dixon of the Chatterdale kennel. One of these pups went to live with Mama’s good friend Maggie Crisfield Walters – she called her baby “Poppy”, and those of you who’ve been following us for years will have seen plenty of posts of us meeting up with our niece “Poppy”. Again, this one could also be placed in the “Flash Back Friday”Cagtegory ….. but as it’s my bloggie, I’m choosing to keep it in the Thirsty Thursday section. I hope you enjoy ….

This sees the start of my new series of posts – Doggie Quotations, accompanied by fabulous photos of me and Fabi. So let’s start with this one …
“Let sleeping dogs lie”
Charles Dickens (1812 – 1870)
And I think we’ll need to be left sleeping for a while to get over all the activity at the beach over Christmas!
