Well hello Winston!

I like Winston... welcome!!!

Hi Winston you handsome boy!! Can't wait to watch you grow!!!

Winston will win the girls' hearts!

Hurray for Winston! Will he have a shorter nickname too?

I think Winston is a very dignified name for a very dignified Dog. ;-)

Thanks guys♥

Rosemary we are not going to shorten it but am sure he will get a few nicknames! All my dogs have.

They are so spunky looking ....tempted to get another terrier, but I know I'd regret it!

Adorable.

Sweeties for sure!!

Having lived with spaniels, I don't think that I could live with a terrier whether they are cute or not. I never met my husband's grandmother with the Sealiams (sp) but I met the other grandmother's Westies.

spunky is an understatement for Hope... the others are not so bad

She's just spirited!! :)

yes she is

I love cause the ain't mine!!

Lily & Eros are more laid back... Jily & Hope are both yappers .. but when it comes down to it.. all will bark .. but we are used to it

I think just like kids, when they are yours it doesn't bother you as much. Lou will ask me how it doesn't drive me crazy that the dogs are right up my butt at times...ya get used to it.

HA ha ha!! Cyrus is up my butt all the time too!

At least we don't trip over them!

True! :)

Doug, maybe he ate something he wasn't supposed to, hope he's ok


Wall-e is just the right butt sniffing height for me drives me crazy!!! Wish he was about 5 inches shorter or taller

Bear is just the right height that if I go to step over something I'll hit his lower jaw and hear his teeth click together.

hee hee

Oh, cute! Hope Bear is feeling better soon....

hope Bear feels better!!!

Hope Bear is feeling better (((♥)))

Nothing like a cold nose in the butt! LOL Better than the tail whack my poor husband would get...ouch!

Thank you. When they are sick you worry about them.
He is acting better this evening. He ate some dog food around noon and I gave him part of my egg salad sandwich this afternoon. He still seems a little off still, but he's back to wanting whatever I'm eating and if I open the frig door he has stick his head in it to see if I'm going to get something interesting out of it.

Great pics of your pups, Allison. Very cute!

Doug, glad to hear Bear is feeling better. Jerry vomited tonight. Earlier this evening I had seen him getting into something in the woods. Went out there to find a bunch of cat litter and feces had been dumped out there. Jerry was snacking on it. Don't know if that's what made him vomit. I don't know how it got out there. It's on our neighbor's property, but quite a ways into the woods from where their house is, so I don't know why they would dump it out there, if indeed they did. My sister and her boyfriend are denying they did it, and so is Gretchen.

Karen

hope Jerry feels better too

Hope Bear and Jerry are both better now!

Ronnie, I love the name and the wonderful photo with the girls. So cute! Allison -your babies are so full of personality and so adorable!

Marilyn, you are smart to choose the right breed for you! I hope you can have a puppy soon!

I love the "cold noses on butts"......Bailey has a way of bumping my calf with her cold little nose when she wants to make sure I know she's there. Love that!

Oooh, she's a sweetie! Glad Bear is better, I was upset when I saw that Suey's kibble had been recalled...hope Bear didn't get sick from that! Jerry is like my dales...they'd eat anything!

Mr G. killed his 1st chipmunk after 2 years of trying. Cant blame him because he was taught to chase squirrels and munks by me.

I could use him here....Suey chases, but never catches!

the only thing Wall-e hasn't caught yet is a squirrel

guess the dog food recall is bigger now.. just got this from my friends business

Thanks for the update on the recalls, Allison.

Jerry is feeling much better, thanks all. No vomiting since last night.

Louise, I also love a dog's cold, wet nose.

Patches has caught just about everything here except skunk, and I don't want her catching any of those.

Karen

A skunk would be bad.
No I don't have any of the recalled food and Bear seems to be back to normal.

I'm hoping dogs would be smart enough not to try to catch a skunk
