Stella’s Christmas Wish!

Posted in pets with tags , , , on December 23, 2012 by rumpydog

Now it’s only TWO days until Christmas! I can hardly wait! woo woo woo!

Stella is a wonderful dog who blogs from her human’s bookshop. with a Christmas wish that only Santa can fulfill….. at least I HOPE he can!

Sweet Stella!

Sweet Stella!

 

Dear Santa Paws~

My name is Stella the Great Newfenees and I’m hoping, because I hear I don’t live too far away from your place at the North Pole (globally speaking, that is), you might have time to pay me a visit on your Christmas rounds.

I’ve been a pretty good dog this year, although I still have (a lot) of trouble coming when I’m called. But that’s only because I’m busy trying to protect my two-leggers from the dangers lurking in the Boreal Forest. And what is really the priority, eh? I’m sure you will understand my point of view….

All I really want for Christmas is another Dog Friend to live and play with me, and help me guard my two-leggers. I’m awfully lonely for dog company in the Winter because all my dog friends go away ’til Spring.

I know my two-legger Elizabeth would like another dog friend, too. But we have a problem. I have a lot of health problems, and Elizabeth can’t afford another dog. She and my other two-legger Kay have talked about fostering, but now that I’ve picked up a tick-bourne disease from the wood ticks in our area, they are afraid another dog might also get sick from them. They wouldn’t want to have another dog get sick, or that they couldn’t care for properly. And I understand completely, really. I do!

But I’d really love a pal.

I’m hoping maybe you could find a way to help me solve this problem. I hear you’re pretty magical. Maybe I’m asking for too much? That’s what I’m kind of afraid of…. But it’s okay if you can’t help. I’ll understand. Maybe in that case, you could just see that my dog pals get back safely in the Spring?

Thank you, Santa Paws.
Love,
Stella the Great Newfenees & Bookshop Dog

P.S. I’m sending you a picture of me in one of my favourite places – a snowbank, so you’ll know what I look like when you drop by… OH! and set a guard on your reindeer when you park them… we have some hungry old wolves hanging around! (I got beaten up by a deer twice, so I’m not very good at guarding them myself….)

Dear Santa: Can you PULEEZE make Stella’s Christmas wish come true?

Loup’s Letter to Santa!

Posted in Letters to Santa! with tags , , , , on December 22, 2012 by rumpydog

Oh Dog! We’re down to THREE days until Christmas! I’m so excited I might pee on the carpet! Good thing it’s Saturday, huh Jen? woo woo!

Today’s letter to Santa comes from my best bud Loup, who hails to us from Canada and he (occasionally) blogs at Life According to Loup. He’s a real riot, so I know you’re gonna love his letter to Santa. But the question is…. will Santa? *gasps* For the record Santa, publishing them does not mean I endorse them!

The one and only- Loup!!!

The one and only- Loup!!!

Dear Santa,

How ya been this year? Hope there is lots of snow up at the North Pole. We have none right now in Ottawa, Ontario since it all melted away. Just lots of rain and that’s no fun for a snow dog like me. Sigh. Could you bring me some snow from the North Pole when you come if we don’t have any by Christmas? I bet that North Pole snow is magic snow. I’m sure of it.

Hope you’re not still sore at me for that time I helped pull the sleigh. The toys only got a tiny bit wet and muddy (Okay, they got soaked) when I dragged the sleigh through that mud puddle. No harm done. Let’s put the past behind us, shall we? Forgive and forget and all that. You’re a jolly old elf, right? *Grins and teeth ping*

Unlike those naughty cats. B.f. Thorneycroft and Gordon Drummond, I’ve been a really *COUGH* good doggie all year long so I’m hoping you will bring me all the gifts I want this year. You are going to give them coal, right? *looks hopeful*

Now for my gifts, first I’d like my own hot tub mud bath. You’re welcome to join me, too, of course. I’m not selfish like those cats, Big and Gordie. *rolls eyes* Of course I may need the deluxe extra large size tub if you’re going to join me, Santa.  *Winks* Guess Mrs. Claus has been baking again, hasn’t she? Getting quite the tummy there!

Speaking of baking, does Mrs. C. have any cookies for my pal Rumpy T. Drummond and I? My pal, Rumpy, just loves cookies. You remember him, right? He lives in Florida which sure is a hot place for a Malamute to live. Don’t know how he does it. Phew! I get hot just imagining it. UGH!

Hey, do you think you could get me one of those little rooms like they have at Mark’s Work Warehouse where you can make it freezing cold and windy in summer time to try on heavy coats? I’d love one of those rooms for summer time as it can get mighty hot and humid around here.

Cathy has a paddling pool for me but only my front feet fit. It’s a joke really. *rolls eyes again* I know she does try, poor girl. We don’t have an in ground pool like some of my lucky doggie friends south of the border.

For my next present, I’d like a new garbage can to hold all the garbage I’ve been collecting lately. It’s starting to pile up and I need a place to store it. Do you have garbage cans the size of a grain silo? Or better yet, maybe one of the farmers around here has an extra silo they don’t mind giving me. Can you arrange it, Santa? You’re so good at that.

And finally, for my last present, I’d like a fresh toy delivered each day since I keep losing and destroying the ones I have. Can you arrange that? I don’t need anything fancy. Cathy gets me toys at the dollar store and not at the expensive doggy boutique where the chic dog owners shop. Hey, I’m okay with it, really. *Cheap Creep….grumbles under breath*

So I hope you will have a good night for flying, Santa, and that the reindeer don’t give you grief. That Rudolph is a saucy one, isn’t he? Must be that red nose of his. Better check he’s not flying under the influence. Thought I smelled candy cane brandy on his breath last time.

So have a great Christmas yourself, Santa! Hope you get a break after working so hard on Christmas night to bring joy to everyone.

All the best for the New Year and drop by sometime. My doghouse door is always open and I’d love to see you. Just don’t touch my dog dish while I’m eating. GRRRR!

Love Loup

Oh Dog! I sure hope Santa’s in a good mood when he reads this! woo woo woo!!!

Some Things Even Santa Can’t Fix

Posted in Letters to Santa! with tags , , , , , , on December 21, 2012 by rumpydog

Oh Dog! It’s only FOUR more days until Christmas! I am SOOOOO excited!

My friend Brin from Shackleford England is so excited too…. or he was. Read his letter to Santa, followed by a footnote.

Brin the Boxer from Shackleford!

Brin the Boxer from Shackleford!

Dear Santa,

My very dear friend and fellow Boxer, Themba, died a few months ago. Before that, he was quite poorly, and we didn’t have as much fun in the garden as we used to.

I have been a good boy, kind and gentle to my Mum and Dad, as we all mourned the loss of little Themba.

This week, Mum and Dad told me they feel well enough to ask Santa (or the Rescue centre) to bring us a new friend in time for Christmas. They have been thinking about it for some time, but it is a difficult process to re-home a dog, and they did not want to get my hopes up.

Yesterday, we went on a long trip in the car (and got a bit lost). When we got there, we were greeted by the loveliest lady who gave me a drink of water and a romp in the sheep field. After that, she brought George to meet me. George is a 2 year old Lurcher, who was rescued as a stray in the Republic of Ireland. He was going to be destroyed, but the good people at The Dog’s Trust took care of him and brought him to England.

He has been well looked after and fed yummy food and is a lovely chap, and boy does he run fast!  We had great fun. I was very tired on the trip home, and slept all night next to the fire, thinking about George. Mum and Dad have heard this morning that they have been accepted as George’s new Mum and Dad, and he will be with us in two weeks.

Thank you, Santa, for helping my wish come true in time for Christmas.

Mum says she will introduce George to everyone once he is settled in his new home.

Happy Christmas!
With lots of love from,
Brin the Boxer
Shackleford
England
 
Lovely letter, isn’t it? Except that George is not coming to live with Brin after all. Apparently the The Dog’s Trust rescue organization made it so difficult for Brin’s family to adopt George that they have decided not to do so.  June Buggie is going to report to you about this situation after the holidays.

In the meantime, please pray for George to find another wonderful home, and that next time the rescue group won’t blow it for him.

Letters to Santa- Kitty Edition!

Posted in pets with tags , , , , , on December 18, 2012 by rumpydog

Oh Dog! Can you believe it? One week from today we’re gonna wake up and see all the wonderful presents Santa has left for us! I am so excited!!!!!

Today Santa’s gonna get tag-teamed by a pair of sweet kitties who have their little hearts set on some sweet surprises. First up, Sundae from These Days of Mine.

It's Sundae, doing what cats do best.

It’s Sundae, doing what cats do best.

Dear Santa Paws,

Sundae, the sweet little calico kitty here. I sure hope you’ve had a wonderful off-season and are geared up for your big evening coming up in a few weeks.

As you know, I’ve been extremely good this year. What’s that?  The little biting incidents? Well, um, you know that’s really just my way of showing affection right?  Surely you’ve heard of “love nips”?

Okay, okay, I’m really trying to get them under control. I promise to really work on it between now and Christmas.

Meanwhile, here’s my tiny little Christmas list:

1.) I really could use a pair of kitty sunglasses. The sun outside my window is really bright sometime, and I’m worried about my eyes.

2.) Motor Mommy mentions a new kitty once in awhile. Could you puhlease work some magic to let her know that isn’t a good idea?

3.) I have made lots of new furriends in blogland and I would really love it if you could bring all my kitty friends a little nip and my doggy friends a little chew toy.

4.) Oh yeah, a new toy for me would be pawsome too.

5.) And – this is a tall order – warm happy homes for all the poor little kitties and doggies who don’t have one. I know: that would be a Christmas miracle, wouldn’t it?

Thanks and tell Mrs. Paws that I say hi.

Love, Sundae
Cattitude!

Cattitude!

Oh Dog! I dunno Sundae, another cat might be a good idea! And June Buggie here would make a GREAT fit for your home…. just sayin’!

Next we have another sweet kitty- Satchie from Satchmo The Cat!

Dear Santa Paws,I’m Satchie, a 7 months old kitten from Canada. This is going to be my very first Christmas! Mom and big bro Jay, and my auntie Savvy and my uncle Sammy told me that if I’m a good girl, you’ll bring me presents. I even have a brand new stocking ready for you that my mom brought home the other day. My very first stocking! I’m very excited about Christmas so I’m writing you this letter and sending it to Santa Dog so he can give it to you.This is my list:

  • A forever home for all doggies and kitties
  • A kitty calendar from Nine Lives Greece
  • My own blankie so big bro doesn’t get mad at me when I sleep on his
  • All the kitty toys you can spare
  • An extra toy for auntie Savvy, another one for uncle Sammy and another one for Rumpy
  • A salmon steak for big brother Jay (he likes salmon)
  • A basket of fresh fruit from Colombia for mom and hu-sis. They miss it very much

I think that’s it.  I hope I did it right.

Oh, and Santa? Please don’t ask big brother Jay if I’ve been a good girl, OK?

Love and purrs,

Satchie

Satchie!

Satchie!

 

I hope you get everything you asked for and THEN some!

Merry Christmas everybody!

Letters to Santa- Thursday Edition!

Posted in Letters to Santa! with tags , , , , , , , on December 13, 2012 by rumpydog

Happy Thursday! The days are passing quickly until Santa comes, and I am sooooo excited! woo woo woo!

Look! It's SantaDog!

Look! It’s SantaDog!

Today we have two letters. The first comes to us from the gang at DogDaz, who by the way won the prize contest from the ASPCA!

The Dogdaz family!

The Dogdaz family!

Dear RumpyDog and Santa Paws, 

We think we have been very good doggies and kitties this year, so could you bring us the following presents for the winter holiday:

- Noel wants every lost animal to find it’s way home  
- Louise wants people to stop hurting animals (and humans too) and could you find them extra special loving homes.  (Louise was hurt and you brought her here, so she knows you can do it.)
- The Muffin Man wants everyone to get along.
- Sofie Bear wants every animal to have enough to eat (and maybe she can help them eat it.)
- Miss Constance Kitty wants to be an only cat (do you have a cat in the North Pole?  Is it nice and quiet there?).
- Nine wants an erector set, and one of those climbing trees, and a whole bunch of cat nip toys, and …., and …..
- Stella wants to play with whatever Nine gets (but she really would like a diamond studded collar.)

and the DogDaz human wants people to shop local and remember that your charity makes a very big difference.

Thanks Santa Paws – We do believe – The DogDaz Zoo

I believe too! I believe that you should all get what you want, especially Nine!

Next up is our friend Misaki from The Misadventures of Misaki! She’s a Malamute like SantaDog! woo woo!

Misaki from the Misadventures of Misaki

Misaki from the Misadventures of Misaki

Dear Santa Paws,

Despite a gang of evil birds who are determined to stain my character with wild accusations, I have been a pretty good pup this year – I hope you agree!

Obviously lots of treats and toys in my stocking would be good, but what I’m really wishing for is snow!! I hope you’ll be able to send some in my direction. 

Also, if you have any miracle-grow for fur that would be useful, my poor shaved belly is starting to feel the cold!

I’ll definitely be leaving out some cookies and a glass of sherry for you on Christmas eve, along with some treats for your sleigh team (we all know the reindeer thing is a myth so I’ll dispense with the carrots, unless like me, your mallies and sibes like them:) happy)

Lots of big slobbery doggie kisses,

Misaki

It’s TRUE! Santa really DOES use sled dogs instead of reindeer! But those deer have a contract and well……

Happy holidays!!!!!

Posted in Letters to Santa! with tags , , , , , , on December 11, 2012 by rumpydog

Oh Dog! Isn’t it amazing how Santa is loved in so many parts of the world!

Today we have two more letters to the Jolly Old Elf! The first one comes from my kitty friends Ella and Leo from the UK:

The next letter comes from the US west coast from our dear feline friend Savannah of Savannah’s Paws Tracks:

Miss Savannah of Savannah's Paw Tracks

Miss Savannah of Savannah’s Paw Tracks

Hello?….yooo hooo???  ahem, koff, koff…ahhhhh, hiya Santa Dog… I am hoping you will read my letter.

 
Ok, here goes…

 I am in my furrever home for my first ever Christmas, and as you can see from the photo, we don’t have our tree all decked out yet for you to see.  And, we moved…so I am kind’a scared you won’t find me.  Anywho, if you do read my letter AND you can find me…maybe you can drop a little something in my stocking??

 
I am a really good ladycat, I don’t cause mischief and I don’t make messes.  Well, and I don’t really like nip either.  Hmmmm….what could you put in my stocking???
 
Oh, I know!!!…how’s about one more Peacock Fev-ver??…just one…for me.  Then you can give all the other cat toys and food to those kitties who don’t have homes, who have to live outside without being warm, never feeling soft chin rubs and who don’t feel safe.  You give them all the other stuff you might have dropped off for me, ‘Kay?? Deal?
 

Purrfect…Paw pats, Savannah

peeEss…purrlease leave some fev-vers for June Buggie, Malachi, Bubba and Hissy Fit Jones, Graybie Baby…hope I got efurryone of the kitties!

These letters sure got the June Buggie Seal of Approval! Looks like you’re all a shoo-in for the Nice List!

Ho! Ho! Ho!

Letters to SantaDog!

Posted in pets with tags , , , on December 1, 2012 by rumpydog

Oh Dog! OFFICIAL! Santa’s Helper Rumpy T. Drummond here! Jen told me she actually talked to the Big Guy yesterday, and he asked her about an incident involving bathroom trash being found in the hallway. I assured her Santa had me mixed up with the dog next door.  *looks around*

Anyway, enough about me. Today we’re featuring letters from Freddie and Gloria at Basset Momma. I can’t wait to read what they’ve asked for!

 

Oh Dog! It's Santa!

Oh Dog! It’s Santa!

Dear Santa:

Freddie here. I’m not gonna try and sugar coat this letter and be all like “All I want is new hips and knees” or “I want world peace” so lets just cut to the chase shall we. I think I’ve been pretty good, well, whatever. Anyway, I would like one of those cool green toys that my buddy Hawk has. I think Momma called it a Kong Rope Squeeze. Every time Momma’s got his blog up he’s dangling that thing in front of me and I want one! I’d also like one of those Sneaky Snakes that Goose has.  I figure since I’m so sneaky too, we’d get along great. Okay, ummmmm……..some treats and rawhide chews would be nice too but I really want some of my old Dog Whisperer bones. All we can get now are these stupid sterilized white bones. What’s up with that? They look like they’ve been bleached! Yuk! I figure your Santa, Mr. Magic, the Big Kahuna……you should be able to make this happen. Oh, and could you maybe put a little something in Gloria’s stocking to help with that poo breath? Ya, that’d be nice. Thanks Santa

Your Pal,

Freddie Spaghetti

Freddie Claus!

Freddie Claus!

Dear Santa,

I want world peace.

Love Gloria

Gloria Claus!

Gloria Claus!

Now that Freddie is a dog that knows what he wants. Come on Gloria! Live a little girl!

If you’d like me to publish your letter to Santa, send it to RumpySanta@gmail.com

Happy weekend!

Letters to SantaDog- Featuring Kevin!

Posted in pets with tags , , , , , on November 26, 2012 by rumpydog

Oh Dog! Today we have another in our series- Letters to Santa!

Today’s letter is from none other than Kevin!  I can’t wait to read what he’s asking for this year!

Hi Santa! It’s Kevin!

Dear Mr Santa

Hi Mr Santa!!! *waving paws happily*

I hope you remember me! It’s Kevin here who asked you a magic carpet last Christmas! Thanks very much for the gift! I kind of got the magic carpet because I could make many fur friends from all over the world since last Christmas! I really appreciated it, thanks so much, Mr Santa!

Well….this year, I’ve been very good doggie as usual! got along with my cat brofur “Shiro” and asked mom lots of treats..Oops!! No no…I didn’t ask!!! I’ve been very quiet! *drools*

Shiro!

Mr Santa, could you do me a favor for this Christmas, too?

Guess what! We got new family members in October! YES, kitties! (there are two kitties) They are around five months old, so still babies. *whispers* they still smell milk! hee hee…

However, my cat brofur “Shiro” seems to be angry to have new kitties in our family….well…to be honest, one is in our house and the other lives outside. Shiro thinks the kitty stole his territory, his cage, litter box and toys because mom carelessly gave them to the new kitty. Silly mom!

Tora!

Shiro is sooo jealous of the new kitty and sometimes he attacks her…oh poor baby….

So! Here is what I’d love to ask you, Mr Santa. Could you please bring us a new kitty cage, toys and lots of treats for kitties AND FOR ME?

*whispers* Mom spends much more budget for kitties than for me these days! Can you believe that? *pout*

Chibi!

Oh Dog! I can’t wait for hanging a big big socks on the wall on Christmas eve!  Until then, please take care of yourself, Mr Santa! Do not catch a cold! Look after your reindeers please! Thanks so much!

From Good doggie, Kevin xxxxx

.

Oh Dog, Kevin! I sure hope Shiro and the kitties learn to get along! Maybe before Christmas, so you don’t need a cage and can instead get cheese!  You might talk to Shiro about that.

Until next time, it’s Rumpy T. Drummond, OFFICIAL! Santa’s Helper, signing off!

PS: letters to Santa can be sent to RumpySanta@gmail.com.

Letters to SantaDog!

Posted in pets with tags , , , , on November 24, 2012 by rumpydog

Oh dog! Santa gave me a buzz and said he was following the series closely. He also asked me remind you that he’s gone high-tech, so don’t think you can away with anything. Ya got that June Buggie?

And speaking of being good….. today’s letter comes from a dog that’s been really good this year. If you don’t believe it, just ask her!  Here’s Cupcake of Cupcake Speaks!

It’s Cupcake!

Dear Santa,

First let’s get this out of the way.  I have been a good girl – a very good girl. Whatever else you may have heard, just remember I’ve been a really, really good girl.

For Christmas this year I would like some toys.  Nothing with batteries, because those scare me.  Nothing rubber because they taste nasty. No chew toys, because I don’t chew.  Just lots and lots of stuffed animals, the cuter the better.

One more thing, Santa.  When you drop off my stuffed animals, can you please take away all the things I’m afraid of? Like the mechanical hamster, the mailman, the soccer guys on the field, the street lights on my block, ladders, balloons, box fans, fire escapes, my water bowl, tall people, motorcycles, keys, outdoor grills, sand, the lawn guys, wind…..

Thanks, Santa!

Love and licks,

Cupcake

PS. …I have been a really, really, REALLY good girl!

Wow! Cupcake got a pic with both Santa and the missus!

Poor Cupcake looks a little afraid of Santa too! I sure hope Santa is able to stop by Christmas Eve without scaring you more!

Send YOUR letter to Santa to RumpySanta@gmail.com and maybe yours will be published too!  woo woo woo!
