Early Morning Watch

Sometimes when we go outside first thing in the morning, we Scotties like to sit on the deck and check out what’s going on around us.  We listen for other dogs in the neighborhood and for birds during the warm months and we are always on the lookout for bird and squirrel intruders.  It’s our version of an early morning watch over our territory, because we Scotties are in charge of defending our home.  Okay, and maybe we’re just plain nosy!


The Loyal Crew

Our mom, Wen has a really bad cold right now and we Scotties have heard a lot of coughing and sneezing lately.  She has spent a lot of time on the couch the last couple of days and all three of us have kept her company because we are a loyal crew.  No cold is going to keep us from  doing our duty of keeping watch over our mom!


A Super Super Bowl

Last night was the Super Bowl and it was a close game between the Chiefs and 49ers.  We were all ready for the big game with plenty of snacks and we were entertained the entire time with the lead going back and forth and then into overtime with the Chiefs finally winning in a tense overtime.  It was definitely a super Super Bowl!

Here We Go….

Here we go, another weekend snow.  Yep, for some reason, Saturday has become the go-to day for snowstorms in our region.  Just when you get accustomed to nice sunny weather during the week, a blast of snow moves through on the weekend to remind us that winter is nowhere close to being over.  I think that groundhog with his prediction of an early spring can’t be trusted!


Back in the Day….

Rocky Mountain Scottish Terrier Club hosted lots of events back in the day where members brought their dogs to get together at picnics in local parks.  There was always good food and fun activities at these events and many candid pictures of the dogs were taken.  Sometimes, they would invite a professional photographer to set up an area to take pictures of the Scotties that members could later purchase and the members would help to pose their dogs with props.

One year, a photographer brought a huge baby buggy as a prop and Wen was a little worried that her three Scotties would sit still in the buggy long enough to get a good picture of them, but surprisingly they cooperated!

Hopping through the Snow

We had a big blast of snow yesterday, so of course we four-footed snow plows were out exploring our backyard.  The snow was a lot deeper than we expected, so Wen walked a huge circular path for us, but we ended up sticking to one little area close to the deck where we could navigate easier.

This was a bigger snowstorm than we’ve had in awhile, so it was kind of a surprise for us Scotties, but our short little legs tried to propel us through the deep snow the best that they could as we went hopping through the snow.
