Bits and Pieces

Well, the dogs turned 2 on the 22nd March so we had a big birthday bash for them :) I havent bothered editting the photos yet.. i'll fix up the evil yellow eyes and low light when I go to scrap them LOL

I cooked them a tasty meal of premium mince from the supermarket mixed with vegetables and a side serving of mashed potatoes. The meat was tasty, I could have eaten it for my dinner! It was all human food anyway.



Onlsow was a bit scared of the sparkler and tried to make a run for it :) Belle just sat there waiting for us to tell her to eat.. they are trained not to eat until they are told :) And when I aid EAT they both scoffed it down in no time!!!



hehehe

Then on Saturday we had to take them to vet to get their needles and a general check up. Last year Onslow was around 45kg and belle maybe 41 or 40 or something. This time we put Belle on the scales and she weighed in at 45.2kg which sounded about right as they were still growing this time last year. Onlsow on the other hand nearly broke the scales at 57kg!!!!! LOL Ok so he is bigger than Belle, and has always been very "barrel-like" in shape.. so I thought he might be pushing the 50 mark.. but 57kg?! We did it 3 times just to make sure :)

Anyway so Onslow, whilst weighing so much was not obese, or even fat.. the vet called him "a bit chubby". But because of his hip problems that he already has, and the fact that this breed needs to be kept thin anyway, he has to go on a diet :) Which means he's earnt a new nickname of "Chub". He only needs to loose 5kg so its not much. I just find it hilarious that he even weighed so much :) No wonder I couldnt move my legs when he layed over them the other night! hahaha

So not much else happened this weekend.. house work, grocery shopping, vet, voting.. oh a trip to Leichardt to see a German movie...and we had the most delicious white chocolate hot chocolate mmmmmm sooooo tasty!
