Hi my name is Bandit and I didn't do it. Well actually I probably did. My new dads say I was appropriately named. I really didn't know what they were talking about until I looked up my named in the wordy book thingy. It says a bandit is an outlaw that lives by plundering. Well I think outlaw is a little harsh, but plunder.......guilty as charged. Can I help it if I'm naturally curious, can I help it if they leave food out everywhere for me (even if I have to climb on the big counter to get to it), can I help it if there is so much new stuff to see here that I some times make a mess checking things out?No I can't. My new dads have been real good so far about it, I just use my innocent face to distract them. Here it is, they took a picture of me doing it unknowingly. I can tell they are such pushovers already.

Out of Control !!!!!

The girls are settling in real nice. They are still working things out with the cats, but their not really the problem. The cats are not playing nice. I have to say getting woke up in the middle of the night with loud barking in your ear because one of the cats jumped on the bed is....fun. Can't get enough of that. The girls have more energy than we every though possible. They are getting into EVERYTHING! And they do it at the speed of light. We are having SO much fun. We have our hands full and are loving it. Here are a few pictures of the girls in a quieter moment.

We are Soooo excited to introduce to you the newest members of Beagledom.

Luv Bug and Bandit.
They are beagle sisters that we adopted from the Seattle Beagle Rescue. They just came to live with us today and they are still getting adjusted to their new home and yard. Plus they had never meet any cats before so that part has been fun. Actually is has went pretty well, the girls are more curious than anything, but our ol'cats are not too keen on dogs sniffing their butts. But we are sure things will be fine. Here are a few pictures we have taken of them, they are very active and on the go so getting them to stop and pose for pictures will be something we will have to work on. Bandit is the one with the most black and Luv Bug the brownish red one. We think they are beautiful.

The dads of Beagledom want to thank everyone for all their kinds words in the postings and emails we have received since Frankie' s passing. Frankie was a true gift to us, and although we only had her for a year she found her way into our hearts and will remain there forever. It's has been especially difficult this past week, but reading those postings and emails have been a comfort to us both. We know we can count on the Dogs with Blogs community to understand what we are going through. Please also know that Beagledom will back real soon, with one maybe two puppies. We know that they can't replace Frankie, but we had been looking for a puppy for a while as a companion for Frankie when she passed. Now we will have to just get two...OMG. Are we crazy, yes.. maybe. We just LOVE us some Beagles and we don't think life would be the same with out them. Stay Tuned.

We lost Frankie very unexpectantly this morning. She had not been well the last few months. Little did we know she had a undiagnosed heart condition. Her little heart just gave out. We only had her for about a year but we fell in love with her and will miss her dearly.

Hey there everyone!!! I know it's been a while since I have been on here but allot has been going on in Beagledom. One of my dads got a new hiney. AROOO. He actually got his hip replaced, but I tell everyone he got a new hiney. The same day he went into the hospital I did also. I had not been felling well and dad came home from the hospital from seeing my other dad and I had gotten really sick.He took me to see Dr Anabelle and she said I had a bacterial infection. EWWWW sounds gross and it actually was, it was coming out both ends as my dad would say. I stayed in the hospital for 2 days and then me and my dad with the new hiney came home the same day. My other dad sure had his hands full and he was sick also. We all just layed around for week and did nothing. Then I got sick again and went back to see Dr Anabelle and she said I had a upper respiratory infection and also decided I have allergies too, so I have to take these yucky pills twice a day. But thats ok because I don't sneeze as much. We are all doing better now, my dad with the new hiney is doing good, he has been home with me all day and it's been nice to snuggle on the couch with him. He has also been taking me to the park and for walks to make his new hiney feel better. So that has been real nice.

Happy Bark Day to me, Happy Bark Day to meeeeee!!!! Happy Bark Day to me-ee. Happy Bark Day AROOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!


For the life of me I don't know what this Bark day stuff is all about, but my dads doted on me more than usual and then stuffed me with treats. SO.......is tomorrow Bark Day also?

I guess I'm a whole 5 years old in who-min.

Smoochies,

Oh my goodness it has been a long time since I have posted anything. Me and my dads have been sooo busy. Dad said he was taking a "time out" from the computer, I just didn't realize that it meant I wasn't going to be able to post anything during that time out. He did say I could get on for a little tonight to say hi and visit with all my friends and read their bloggies. I have allot to catch up on. I did want to say Hi to my aunt Phyl, she goes to my bloggie all the time and wonders where I am. I'm still here auntie Phyl, my dads are just lazy. The sun came out today which is unusual for here this time of year. I got me a little sun bathing in...au naturale.

Had me a good snooze with dad yesterday. He's the best pillow.

It's snowing!!!

Painting is fun!!!! My dads have been painting the kitchen for the last few days and I helped. Actually the stinky ol cats helped too. Dad said we got paint in every room of the house. Look at my face, have you every seen anyone so innocent?

The Holidays are here and I am so excited! My dad said we got the Holiday Card exchange list from Opy this week. That means I have to get busy and work on my Holiday cards. I can't wait. I got some ideas and I hope you are all on my list so you get to see out it turns out. Have a good turkey day this week.

Smoochies,

Frankie Doodles.

Yes they made me wear it! But you know what? I had fun saying hi to all the little kiddies in their fun costumes. And everyone said I looked very cute. I just wish I could have talked my dad out of posting the picture on here. I will have to plot my revenge. Happy Hallooooweeen. AROOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

A big Happy 24th Anniversary to Aunt Phil and Uncle Don. Everyone in Beagledom loves and misses you guys.

Ok, so there was no fringe or leopard skin but I look like a line-backer in my new coat. My dads said I looked sooo cute in it, and I have to admit it keeps me warm. But it makes a funny sound when I walk and I look fat in it. SO, it will have to go! I told my dad if they posted a picture on here of me in it I will not only eat the coat but I'll eat the camera also. But don't be surprised if one still sneaks on here. Dad pretty sneaky. Have a great week you guys!

Hey guys, not much going on here. Just hanging out with the dads and trying to keep warm. It's been kinda cold here and since I don't have much fur I get the shivers when I go out. Dad says were going shopping today for a coat for me. I hope I get something cool like what Jazz and Dixie wear, but dad said something about fringe and leopard skin. I hope not! Dad also said something about a Halloween costume. Somebody please rescue me, preferably the fashion police and tell my dads that doggies don't wear clothes. I'm sure what ever I get will end up on here.........why me?

Remembering our calendar girls! Peanut and Daisy Mae

It's still hard to believe their gone.... and we miss them every day. But life goes on and we have our sweet Frankie Doodles to chase away any sadness that comes our way.

Not much going on in our neck of the woods. My dads have been real busy with projects around the house and have not had time to help me blog. They promise that we can sit down next weekend since it's a holiday here in the US and do a real blog. I can't wait!

Have a great week!

Smoochies

Ester Williams watch out!!!

Frankie here....I don't know who Ester Williams is but I do know my crazy sissy Miss Baneda. She was trying to get to one of my dads who at the time was in the middle of the pool and she just jumped right in. To say she was not amused is an understatement. The pool had never been there before since it's new this year. It's one of those blue ones you blow up. I wasn't suppose to say that, my dad said "make it sounds like a big pool when you tell it" but it's not. Anyway for a ol'girl of 19 Baneda sure took it well. She spent the rest of the night grooming herself. She sure is pretty for a stinky ol' cat.

Who knew cats could swim?

We got some sad news today...my aunt Phyl's dog Katie went to the Rainbow Bridge. She was not feeling well. But now she gets to run and play with all the doggies at the bridge.

Good bye sweet Katie.

Love and miss you already
