Aw, I'm A Lucky Pup!

Happy Tuesday Everyone!! Hope that you are all having a pawesome week!

So, last Thursday my buddies, Wally and Sammy, decided to bestow upon me a super, duper awesome award...The Sunshine Award!!! :-D [Blushing]

What I was so happy about was that it is an award for “bloggers who positively pawsitively and creatively inspire others in the blogosphere“. Dawwwww... :-S There's nothing better in my little pup life than inspiring others to have fun, be their own dog, and help others when they can...so now I'm totally chuffed!

Now for the rules of the award [cough]:

1. Thank the blogger who gave this award to you & link his / her -

     Already said it before, but thank you so, so much Wally and Sammy!! Oh and for those of you who don't know the brothers (what rock have you been living under?!)...they are a crazy, fantastic duo from South Africa who never look down from a challenge (can you say Occupy Couch 2013?), but have hearts of gold!! Go check them out, like now!! ;-)

2. Pass on the award to 10 fabulous bloggers, link their blogs & let them know you awarded them -

I think I'm going to steal the idea from Wally & Sammy and pass this award onto just a handful of pups, cause the rest of you already know that you totally rock!! ;-)

     * Reilly and Denny from Cowspotdog - These boys inspire me all the time to get outside, enjoy the sunshine, and smell on! Reilly also constantly inspires me to take my brothers for who they are, however annoying as they sometimes are! ;-)

     * Noodles from A Bowl of Noodles - Noodles is one amazingly philosophical pup, she constantly inspires me to think outside of the box (or crate)!! Her One Hundred Days is also an incredibly pawesitive addition!!!

     * Max from All About Max - Max has an incredibly inspiring relationship and connection with his Mom...together they can concur the World, starting with Houston! :-) Their photos and travels make me constantly want to get up and get going!

     * Blueberry from Spotty, Spotty, Polkadotty - Blueberry is one cool chick who has an incredibly large heart, together her Mom and her have assisted rescues and foster pups galore! :-D These two have left a paw print or two on lots of hearts!     

Well, there you go...thanks to everyone for constantly inspiring me and Domeek!! You all seriously rock!! :-D

Take care everyone!

Award Central

Happy Saturday Everyone!!

I've been super lucky recently and noticed that I have the bestest bloggie friends that a pup could ever want!! :-D Yeah, I'm talking about you!!! 

Yesterday, two pawesome pals nominated me for awards!

First up, the ever gorgeous and fantastically-dominating Nola granted me the REALITY blog award.

The Rules are as follows:

1. Visit and thank the blogger who nominated you.
2. Acknowledge that blogger on your blog and link back to them.
3. Answer the 5 simple questions. (see below)
4. Nominate up to 20 blogs for the award and notify each of them. (see below)
5. Display the award on your blog somewhere.

The Questions:

• If you could change one thing, what would it be?
• The Big Picture: That everyone would value their pups, kittens, hamsters, bunnies...as much as our fantastic Mom's and Dad's here in Blogville do! 
• More Personal: That I could go everywhere with my Domeek, no questions asked...the stores, food places, her work all the time, everywhere!! :-) 
• If you could repeat an age, what would it be?
• Well, I'm only one year old...so I don't have a lot to go by, buuuuut, I do miss my younger months, when there wasn't as much pressure to behave and do well in class...those were the days my friends! ;-)
• What is one thing that really scares you?
• Domeek not coming home!! :-( 
• What is one dream you have not completed, and do you think you'll be able to complete it?
• There's tons of things that I haven't completed...again, I say, I'm only 1! Let's see, I want to travel all over the place (yes, I'll complete that) and I want to take more classes like nosework (yes, I'll complete that one too)!
• If you could be someone else for one day, who would it be?
• Pft...I'm ecstatic being Freckles, why should I be someone else?! You humans are weird...I'm pretty sure that most saved pups are happy being who and where we are! :-D

5 Things About Moi:

1. Oh my dog, most of my freckles are disappearing...oh no!! Does that mean I'm disappearing too?!
2. I'm seriously the most picky eater that has ever lived! 
3. I've just discovered how to chew open tennis balls and shred them too! WooHoo!

5. I'm super barrel chested...not fat!!!

5 Questions By Cotton:

• Recommend a book that you or your staff have read that you feel my huMum would like.
• Oh man...ummmmm...ooooo...my Domeek just finished reading Always Looking Up by Michael J. Fox. Now, she's not usually a happy-go-lucky, feel good kind of a person, but this book really helps to put your life in perspective and realize that it's not as bad as it looks, that you can always make things better! :-D We'd definitely recommend it!!

• Show us a picture of your favorite flower, preferably from your garden but understand if you have to use Google.
• Muahaha, our garden?! That would follow the presumption that Domeek doesn't have a black thumb! 



The ever beautiful Magnolia!

• How do you express your love for those close to you.
• Hehe, I go crazy and whine and growl all around them! I'm a weirdo!

• Name an all time favorite film of you or your staff.
• Hm...I just finished watching one of the Harry Potter films and I surprised myself by liking it, usually I get scared pretty easily, but I didn't mind this one (ooo, it's the one where Sirius dies)!

• Do you find all this just a bit tedious?
• Hehe, well, if I found it really tedious, I wouldn't have answered the questions! ;-) You might be lucky though, I just finished eating dinner...but I haven't fallen asleep yet! 

My Five Questions:

1. What is the bestest thing that has ever happened to you?
2. Are you a Valley, Mountain, Country, Urban, or Sea kind of a pup/human?
3. If you could sit down to dinner with 3 other individuals, who would they be?!
4. What's your favorite treat?
5. What's your favorite quote?

The Nominees (Again, go say "Hi" if you don't know them):

• Ann
• My brother, Goose
• THE Brothers: Murphy and Stanley
