WOW

Hello to all my new "Fur"iends!!!  We are so very excited to meet you all and appreciate your thoughts, hugs and wags.  Thank you Rocky Creek Scottie for introducing us to your furiends.

While we were posting about our lost friend last night we forgot to tell you about the trouble Hoke got in yesterday.  Hoke learned pretty quickly not to dig in the yard or bark at the neighbors but the site of a squirrel, groundhog or yesterdays trouble maker, the chipmunk, just makes him forget all about what he's learned.  Hoke was out of sight for 10 minutes and when "dog dad" finally found him, he was covered head to toe in mud and was on his way to China through the hole he was in the process of digging...all to get a chipmunk that stayed put in a drain pipe while Hoke frantically tried to dig under the fence.  Little did he know we had the fencing dug a foot into the ground to prevent him from ever getting out...reading all over that Westies will dig and dig and dig.  An emergency bath was in order which is always an adventure.  Baths are certainly not the favorite activity and if he can he will escape the suds and run for cover.

Hi Hoke

We thought we would pop over and say hello. We are Molly, Taffy and Monty and we live in the UK.

We love to chase little animals, dig and are not overly fond of baths. Muddy ponds are so much nicer...........

I like to dig too, except I'm digging to Croatia. Don't you just think digging is the most refreshing thing to do?

Hi there hoke! We read about you at Rocky Creek, and thought the photo of you in the leaves was super-adorable - had to come over & meet you. Looks like you are quite the outdoorsman! Too mad your furs are white & give your "projects" out there away so easily!

Snorts-
Brutus & Carmen

I have a hunch your middle name is "trouble" Hoke. You're my kind of guy!

I popped over from PBU. I had a bath recently, too. Ugh! Your Autumn picture is absolutely priceless!
I am a kitty, but I like woofies. My bestest woofie friend is Maggie. She's a Schnauzer. She plays with any kitty toys you give her cause she has a sister kitty at home. She even eats my cat treats with me when she visits.
