Extending our trip. . .

Sally Ann and I were chatting in our suite, would anybody like to go sking in the French alps for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday? We could then go to Italy. I would love to see the Venice and the Ufitizi again. Let me or Sally Ann know.
Mack, your tour guide

Lyon here we come . . .

Everyone seems really upset that the trip is ending, but tomorrow were all going to the Gare du Nord, and then Lyon, France. Mommy lived there for two years.

Day four . . . The last day in Paris

The day started out in Momarte. Hootie insisted on having a picture made with Sally Ann. He likes to spend time with her.










Everyone else strolled around Momarte.













Some doggies went to eat.














We noticed many cat - artist.














Tiffane wanted her picture painted for her new Mommy and Daddy.















































Some doggies walked over to the Luxemburg gardens, and rested a bit after all the busy day.There were some cute Parisian kitties there spending time in the garden.











Fudgie and Duffie wanted to take a boat ride on the seine before leaving Paris, so I agreed to go along. I was taking the picture.














Tomorrow, we'll be taking the train to Lyon.

Day Three. . . The tour bus and . . .

We all got on my tour bus for the first part of the day to see the city.



























Then, for lunch all the guys wanted to go to the Latin quarter because all the girls were talking about going to Fauchon. I had to join them of course.


















All the girls posed outside of Fauchon before going in to eat.



















Later we walked around the city a bit. Did y'all know that Pip spends hours and hours at the gym?















Sally Ann insisted on taking this picture of me. Personally, I think it is hard to see me; but, she insisted. So, here I am.

Then, we got some treats and ice cream.













Finally, Gus wanted to buy some Chocolate for his Mommy. He said it was because of something he did wrong a while back.

The first day. . Paris

We went shopping for our picnic first.





























Some dogies strolled around instead.
















Some dogs just wanted to drink cafe and read the paper.














Finally, we had our picnic. We caught Hootie giving Sally Ann a kiss.















Tomorrow, we go to Notre Dame and we will go to the Musse Dorsy. I think my Boston namesake will be flying over.

"Tour de France"

If you would like to go with us to France, please let me know by Wednesday night. My Secretary and Mommy said we will leave on Thursday. I have chosen a team of helpers to show everyone around.

My sister, Sally Ann, who speaks French also . . .
















My beautiful Siberian Husky girl friend, Khyra, . . .















And, a fur friend, Asta, who seems to be very knowledgeable about France;and, her older fur siblings traveled there often, so she must know lots about France.













If you want to go, please bring your self and big ol'milk bone just for me. I can't really eat real 'milk bones,' so only big big big photo - shoped milk bones. Did I mention I love milk bones?

Mack

A tour of France

Someone suggested after my date with the wonderful Khyra that perhaps I should give a tour of France. So, I would like to offer my tour of France to any doggies that would like to join us. Let me know.

A little preview, you can visit Versailles with us. . .














And, then the louve. . .















I speak French/English/Dog, so I can translate for any dog.
I know the best hotels to stay in, and of course the best places to eat at.

Advice for senior earthdog training

Howdy Y'all,
Last weekend, I went from nothing to a junior earth dog in one test. So, now I will be going to Florida in two weeks for another test. Does anyone have any tips on training for a senior earth dog test. Mommy already has the whistle, and it is quite fun. Every time she whistles, I come and get a treat. Are there any other training things we can do to get ready?














Oh, Mack will be getting his "Tour de France 2010, le tour de chien" ready. So, if you want to go - it cost only a big milk bone for him, and your cute canine e - presence.

Sally Ann

An Inquiry

Hello this is Sally Ann, Mommy and I are going to Ocala, Florida to do some earth dogging in March;but, Mommy was wondering about hotels in that area? If there are any blog friends that live near there that might know of any, could y'all let my Mommy know.













Thanks,
Sally Ann

My special Valentine date

This is my date with the beautifimous Khyra









First, we flew to France.













Then, we played at the Eiffel tower parc.









We had some great suites at the ritz. We needed a rest after playing in the parc.

I took Sally Ann swimming in the mermaid pool.











That night, Khyra and I went to Le Jules Verne.





















When we got there, we were suprised, as we saw a friend.















Mango's cousin, Jaques, and Asta's cousin, Marie Claire were there. Then, Max walked in, as he has been visiting many blogs recently, he wished to rest and eat a bit. He said "hi."

The next day, we went to Versailles to have a picnic.









Sally Ann took most of the pictures, save the one Khyra took of us swimming and our (Sally Ann and I) suite.

A very loved and happy Eskie, (Mommy helped me put all this together, as I can't type well)

A gift basket from Mack to all the doggies in bloggie land from bowwowgiftbasket.com


I would like to extend a special Valentine's wish to a special mini schnauzer friend, and my special Welsh friend Hootie.
Sally Ann

Hi, this is Sally Ann. This is our wee wheelie, Sally May. She was a gift from Penny, Patches, and Poppy's Mommy from Christmas. Mack was really sick, and we never really posted pictures from Christmas because Mommy was afraid Mack wasn't going to be here now.

She is a feltie wheelie, and her ears are like mine. She is the most precious wheelie we have ever seen. She might be small, but hey, I am small;and, I have a big voice.

Sally Ann

A valentine date for Baily

Hi y'all, if you see Baily, let him know that I am open for Valentines day. My name is Sally May. My ears are just like my namesake. I have to go and wheel back to bed now. I am small, but I am full of life.
As dictated to Sally Ann, Sally May

Happy Thursday

Hi y'all. I haven't bloged in a while, as Mack has been busy wooing his love. So, I thought I would put my princessy photo up. I have been asked to be Hootie's Valentine, and I am most excited.















Isn't he adorable?
Sally Ann

My Darling Khyra

I have this memento of our first date. I treasure it greatly. I am most excited to see her in dog, get it; see her in dog, not person, ha ha. I hope I have wooed her with my love poems, as I long to see her again. Isn't she just dreamy. Just think in less than 56 hours we can be romping in the La tour Eiffel parc and eating yummy ham sandwiches with that real buter they put on them.
