Seussical Leo

Worried about Spencer

We just read the lastest post about Spencer the Mascot Dog, and we are very worried about him. He sounds very sick. Spencer was the first dog blogger we met, and we wanted to have our own blog after reading about him. Lots of our friends probably already know about him, but if not you can visit him at http://blog.stickerdog.com. Maybe if we all keep him in our thoughts it will help.

Fifth folder fun

Mason Dixie tagged us several days ago with the Fifth Folder game, but our Mommy has had the flu and hasn't been able to help us blog until today. When we looked, this is what we found.

The fifth folder only had 2 pictures. This was one, a picture of a blue jay Mommy took at her parents house when her digital camera was new and she was trying to see what it would do.
The first folder with 5 pictures in it had this picture of Mommy and Tucker looking goofy when he was about 9 months old.
We are not going to tag anyone specifically, but invite any of our friends who haven't done this to play along.

The Inaguration

Hi Everyone
Our friend Cathy, who we love, said we should post a picture of Tucker in his new star-spangled bandana in honor of the inauguration today.

Tucker for president?
Daisy says "What about me. Maybe Mr. Obama needs a tennis ring. He likes sports."

Even more snow

We got more snow last night. Mommy says she's sick of it, but she took us for a walk up in the woods this morning.
Mommy did think the trees looked pretty all covered in snow.


Tucker says, "I looked under all the snow to find something to bring you, Mommy, but there's nothing there."
Daisy says "Mommy said she saw bunny tracks, maybe I can see a bunny."


"Not over there."

"Maybe over this way."



Daisy and Mommy playing fetch.

We had one more good run before we went in the house and crashed.

We had fun in the snow and are going right back to sleep as soon as we finish this post.

Family Ties

Hello Friends

Tucker and Daisy here today. Leo is a pound kitty, so he doesn't know who his fur Mommy is, but our human Mommy tells us that she knows all about our family on the maternal side. We were born at Ox Kill Farm, in Schoharie, NY, bred by Mommy's friend Vicky McCaffrey. Mommy said she knew many of our relatives, starting with Spicy, who was Tucker's great, great, great grandmother. Then there was great great grandmother Sandy, great grandmother Satin and grandma Bug, pictured below to the right of Tucker when she was 16 years old. Buggy died a few months after this picture was taken. Tucker's mother was Bug's daughter Summer. Add one grand to each one for Daisy, who is the daughter of Tucker's sister Shamie. Our Mommy loved all the dogs when she first visited Ox Kill Farm.

Our Mommy says that Bug is the reason that she wanted to have us. When she was in graduate school, she lived at Ox Kill and she fell head over heels in love with Bug. She tried to kidnap her when she moved away, but didn't get away with it.
We still like to visit our friends and relatives at Ox Kill.
This is Daisy on the left with her half sister, Ox Kill Serendipity, known as Sera. They both have the same father, Davenport's Fourmal Attire. Just to confuse things, Sera is also Tucker's half sister, they have the same mother, Summer. Talk about confusing family relationships.
Daisy and Sera look very similar, and share a lot of characteristics. Daisy says "I am not sure I like that Sera, she acts like me, copydog, and my Mommy thinks she's cute, and I don't want to share my Mommy".
Hope you enjoyed our family album.
Tucker and Daisy
