WOW! Yesterday I found out that there is a Pup Scouts just like most of you know I belong to Cat Scouts………….how cool is that? All you dogs who wish you could have the kind of fun you know I have in Cat Scouts can join Pup Scouts and do just that! They’ve got adorable uniforms and looks like they do a lot of interesting things………………..you can visit the site HERE! Here’s their logo – I didn’t ASK if I could use it but since I’m pretty much giving them a “plug” I don’t think they’ll mind do you???
Speaking of Cat Scouts though – this weekend we’re having a Carnival. All the Patrols are sponsoring a booth or ride or game or ther kind of activity and we’re even having a Sideshow. Should be a hoot. I’ll try and share some photos with you AFTER the event – don’t want to give anything away but here’s the poster for it that we used to get the word around Scouts! The Scout who had the idea to have a Carnival in the first place was Scout Nibbler so that’s why her name is on the poster.
I probably won’t be around much today to respond to your FAB comments like I usually do – I’m giving my Mom the day off because her sister is visiting to spend the day with her. They’re doing girlie stuff like shopping, having lunch, gossiping, shopping, shopping and……well you get the picture! But tonight after my Auntie Carol (the Mom of my cousins the shih tzus) leaves, Mom will be back here catching up! I’ll just be around all morning then I’ll most likely be curled up somewhere sleeping (and snoring).
Mom broke out my fleece blanket collection yesterday and put them in various spots in the house for me to use for naps. There’s one on the green “Granny Chair” in the guest room……….one on the couch in the Family Room near the fireplace……….one on the floor in the dining room under a chair I frequent……….so I’ve got all my nap spots covered with WARM to keep my tummy and tushie warm now that it’s pretty darn chilly out. I’m also spending EXTRA time on Mom’s legs when she’s in the recliner….that’s as good as having a heating pad!
Hope you all are staying snuggled in – – – – I know that right now some of you are going into Spring instead of Fall like us………YOU LUCKY PEEPS!!!!!!
So pleased the staff are well trained for the seasons Sammy 😉 Hope you have a great Carnival with the Scouts.

WOW cousin – your mom puts out blankies at different spots for you around the house? I *so* need to talk to the management here at the Hotel Thompson in reference to this. It would be fabulous for this little piggy to keep warm anywhere. Great idea! XOXO – Bacon
P.S. I’ll have you to know that mine and Houdini’s time together is getting better. Yesterday I actually let the little guy jump all over me like his personal jungle gym and play. Hemi also played ‘tag’ with him throughout the hallways. It’s coming along.

I hate to admit it but those pup scouts are so cute in their uniforms. Scouts for pups is great and certainly will teach some etiquette and politeness to these loud and sometimes obnoxious woofies. They just need direction. Scouts will provide this.
Your mom will have a lot of fun this afternoon and you can try out all the blankies and see which one is your fave.

Sammy the Spoiled really does seem to fit. Your mom putting fleecy blankies all around the house for you is pretty nice. We discovered Pup Scouts a few days ago.
