Jasmine – 8 wk old setter x puppy *HOMED*

Hi Everyone at DID!

Hope everyone had a great summer and found themselves fur-ever homes!

I had a really busy but great summer, I did so many new and great things and went to fantastic places!

I love to swim! Mommy took me to the beach a few times and I loved it there – I did get scared of a pile of seaweed though and I barked and barked at it until I knew it wasn’t going to take over the world and that I was in charge! When it was really hot we’d walk down to the estuary in Malahide because its right around the corner! Mommy would throw my ball out into the sea and I’d run after it until my legs wouldn’t reach anymore and I’d swim and swim and swim then until I got my ball and I’d come racing back in – Mommy said she’ll check and see if the olympics will let me complete because I’d win gold for Ireland every race she says!

The other day Mommy decided that she was tired of looking at my "tufty bum" – I had all these tufts of hair growing in awkward directions above my tail – so my bum looked really fluffy and funny looking she said – so she made me an appointment to get a beauty treatment – I got really scared going in because the last time I went near a strange place with other dogs in it Mommy left me and they did bad things to me! (They spayed me! But I still loved Dr Kelly after what he did to me!) So I was a bit scared by this whole grooming thing – but Mommy said it would be ok and I’d be even more beautiful so I believed her but I was still scared! The really really nice lady made me beautiful! I got a bath and my hair cut and my nails done! It was a real girly day! I felt so much lighter and fluffier when she was done and my nails were gorgeous! Mommy came to get me and she couldn’t believe how pretty I was – and she thought my groomed bum was so much nicer and neater than my "tufty bum" had been! And when I was leaving with Mommy the lovely lady who groomed me gave me a cookie and a pink bow for my collar! I was so pretty and proud with my new haircut and my pink bow! I marched down the street home like I owned Malahide!

Daddy wanted me to tell you a funny story about me as well – he calls me Billy Idol sometimes because when I’m being cheeky or begging my lip curls up to show my tooth and he says I look just like Billy Idol. I don’t know who that is – but I hope you humans at DID think its funny like Daddy does! I’ll put a picture up of me with what Daddy says is my cheeky faced Billy Idol pose.

Thanks DID for finding me the best home ever! I love it here!

Hi Everyone at D.I.D

Hope you all had a great Christmas! I don’t know about anyone else but I wish it was Christmas every day! The whole day was one thing after another – each more exciting than the next! When I woke up I thought it was just another day – but wow was I wrong! The Humans had been talking about Santa coming to see me – but I had no idea what they were talking about but I didn’t like to think he’d come into MY house on MY watch – but I guess I fell asleep because there was LOADS of presents under the tree that my Humans had said he would bring – so I guess he snuck past me because there were so many under there – and some were even for me!! I must have been a very very good girl this year because I got loads of things to chew (so many I can’t name them all!) a Santa hat and scarf, a new package of tennis balls, a new bed and so many other things – I couldn’t believe how much was just for me! And I loved unwrapping my presents – and I got so carried away that I had to help everyone unwrap their presents!

After all the presents were opened and I had shredded (and stole) all the bits of wrapping paper the Humans missed – they showed me how to pull Christmas crackers – I love tug-of-war games and this was the most fun I’ve ever had! Well, until I had to wear one of the crowns in the cracker – that wasn’t so much fun – but I still tried to pose nicely wearing it – they had to hold treats up in the air so it would stay on my head though! Crowns weren’t made for doggy heads! I really really love crackers! – even when they told me they were all gone – I snuck out to the recycling bin and found some of the crackers they said were "gone" but they were right there – and I had loads more fun with those crackers! Humans – they just never realize I can still find fun in ANYTHING!

Then we had a huge dinner – and I got tastes of everything on my own plate – and I didn’t even have to wait until all the Humans had finished before I got it!! I got it at the same time as them – and that made it taste even better! One of my bold "Uncles" even gave me a lick of wine! It made me sleepy – or maybe it was all the excitement – I don’t know because it was such a great day I didn’t want to go to sleep.

I’ll share some pictures of my great First Christmas with my Humans – I really hope Christmas is again next week because I don’t know if I can wait a whole year to do all of this again!

Here’s wishing everyone at D.I.D with 2 legs and 4 legs had as great a Christmas as I did!

If only Christmas was every week we all just love the updates everyone puts up of the holidays

[IrishAsh]

Well, it’s offical! The date has rolled around to the 28th of January 2012 and that means that one year ago today we collected a wee bundle of fur from Tracey and brought her home. And what a dog she has grown up into! We were only looking back through all her baby photos today and its then you realize how much she has actually grown and changed in the short time that we have had her.

From the first day she fit in perfectly – even the cat took an amazingly short amount of time to adjust to the new addition to the family. And as I write this now they are both curled up asleep at the end of the bed. Like it has always been this way – it hasn’t been – but one thing I do know for sure is that it will ALWAYS be this way!

We cannot thank Tracey, Audrey and Shirley enough for believing that we were the perfect family for little Jasmine who morphed like a butterfly into the Kali you see now. We hope that you all can see what an excellent decision you made for her – she’s paws down – the happiest dog in the country! But maybe she (and myself!) are a bit biased about that!

Here are some pictures of her birthday "party" that we had for her. It wasn’t much of a fiesta but a super long outing to her favourite place to run was the main event. Followed by a special dinner and a "birthday cake" that I made for her – it smelled horrible but she ate every bit of it so it had to have tasted better than it smelled! It was a beef cake – taken from a dog’s recipe website – topped with cream cheese "nicing" like icing but much more doggy friendly! And then garnished with pieces of cat food (the most special and joyous substance on earth! She’d sell her soul for a promise of a single piece of it!) – So she was super delighted with her cake. And tomorrow she’s getting an all expense paid shopping spree in Maxi Zoo which she’s greatly looking forward to and is already planning to buy a new collar and lots and lots of chews!

Hello Hello It’s Kali here, I had problems with my old account and after resetting the password many times and getting re-accessed to it, nothing was helping so I created a new account so I hope that’s ok!

I hope everyone in and from D.I.D had a great year and Christmas! It looks like so many have joined me in finding happy families! But it also looks like so many more need help to, so I hope they get a great home like I have!

Its been a really busy year for a little dog like me! My biggest change is that I’m no longer just a city dog – I’m a country dog too! Me and Mummy moved to the country – I love it! I’ve sooooooooo much land to play around on, sniff, run and go mental! So many smells and things to do! I’m really good about not leaving the yard or chasing sheep! But I do love to watch them! I go up to the fence and stick my head through so I can see them better, they’ve gotten to learn that I’m ok and I wont go any closer and now they just keep eating and ignore me! I’m a bit scared of the horses though that come to a field on the other side, I like them but they snort and that scares me so I have to hide behind Mummy! I still get to visit my Daddy and my friends in the city, Mummy says I have the best of all worlds! I’ve included a picture of me and my brother the cat (who yes, is rudely sticking his toungue out!) outside in our new yard – this isn’t even half of my new yard that you can see!

I also got to meet my Great-Grandaddy who came over from America to see Mummy – he loved me to bits and would always play with me, and I’d sleep in/on his lap and he’d hold my toys and bones so I could play with them and him! I was so sad when he left – I kept walking around the house and looking all around for him after he left!

Christmas was really nice for me this year! I got sooooo many things! I loved them all! Mummy says I’m spoiled rotten (whatever that means!) I think I’m just happy! She also says I landed on my 4 little paws when I got to come live here – and I have to agree with that – I love my Mummy!

I’ll be back in a few weeks when its my "birthday" (my birthday is now when I came home with my Mommy!) on the 28th of January – I can’t believe I’ll be 2!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone at D.I.D!
