dapper doxie dud: secret robo dog!

 

so mom my idea was we would do something like this.  wait- let me clear -  a-a-a-hem - okay.

(en voce meccanica artificiale)
 

meep meep boop beep beep! 

this is robo-baxter from the planet poopiter. 

please take me to your snackie jar now or i will use my super duper foofie rays to..

 












what? no mom i would not actually foofie up jasper's super swell new everyday playdud made from space blue 420 denier pack cloth with robot charm and secret super cute robot fabric inside bcuz u would make stunt dud and that way when it comes to the next scene where robo-baxter and mechatron fight over who has ultimate control of the snackie jar that determines the fate of all the snackie jars of planet earth, we will not have to worry about, u know, getting jasper's new dud all messed up from the molten lava and nuclear fallout snow that we will have made from the gallons of  honey and ketchup and mashed potatoes and stuff that we would need to buy. and then...oh what?  he wants his dud before the summer is over?  sigh. well, okay, we can model it your way...this time.

hee hee hee, i hope u likey likey your new robo-dud, my friend jasper!! and please say hello to your visitor harley for me :) :)

i bark, u bark, we all bark for gelato!

dear diary,
hooray! both our guests here at the motel park n bark decided to stay for an extra night so to celebrate, yesterday mom n dad too me n lulu to get k9 krunchy peanut butter gelato while mario hung out at home with duk duk and chocobot and lil pink puppy to play twenty thousand foofies under the sea.  and i have to say, even though i had to share my snoozer with a girl, i think i totally got the better end of the deal bcuz not only did i get peanut butter gelato, but i actually got to eat the whole thing! and me and lulu each got our own cups so there was no chance for, u know, that lady n the tramp spaghetti kissing stuff to happen (although our cups did touch once or twice but if u tell duk duk that i will so pound u, diary, so please, let's just keep that between u and me, okay?)

anyhoo, today i am not sure what we will be doing to entertain our guests but hopefully it will involve snackies and foofies and yes, at least a poopie snake or five or twelve or infinity so!

toodley-doo!

baxter n duk duk's motel park n bark: friday night's alright for foofieing

dear diary,
yippeee! well wouldn'tchoo know it, me n duk duk's  friday night dj disco party for our motel park n bark guests mario and lulu was a success - even though me n and duk duk never did settle on who was dj scratch munkey and who was dj skillit head (yeah, aren't our dj names even more rapsta doogan when u spell them that way? i just thought of that :) ). 

so mom finally shut down our party on account of all the foofie wafting upstairs which actually was good bcuz we were all really tired and so everybuddy slept on the sofa (except mario who slept on his own sofa in his bowl) til it was time to go upstairs at which point i showed lulu to her to the park n bark luxury guest chair bcuz she says with all her long hair she likes to sleep by herself without any covers or anything and then we all said goodnight. luckily, with no kissing involved. well, on me at least.  from lulu. but mom kissed everybuddy goodnight which i guess was okay.

anyhoo, i am sorry to say i think lulu and mario's stays will be ending sometime today but hopefully before they leave and if it is not too hot out, we can all go for peanut butter gelato, so although i am sad to see our guests leave,  i am very excited about that. :)

toodley-doo!

dapper doxie duds: fun with pearls and snackies

but mom, it's for penny from stuff on my wiener.  i want to wear it like this so everone will...okay, i will put it on right..

(hwuuuuuuuuup!)

 

Why hello my friends, it's me, Baxter, your roving rover reporter reporting to you today about the pretty dud my mom made for Penny, who you guess by now might be the same Penny from Stuff on My Wiener, because, well, she is!  I'm modeling her super new summer dud.  Let me take a turn around here so we look at it, shall we?








So here we have a pretty pink gingham cotton fabric bound in turquoisey aqua and white polka dot binding and not only is there really cool ribbon and rick rack on it, but there is also a vintage turquoise colored button flower on the snackie pocket! And to make the dud even more special, there is a sterling silver and pretty pink freshwater pearl dangle drop! Do not tell duk duk but  I really like this dud,  because it is so fun and sweet and it reminds me of something u might see in that book we finished in school this past year - you know, Fun with Dick and Jane?  Only you know, fresh and modern. Just like Penny.

So anyhoo, that is my report for today because mom says we might be having another guest tonight. And here at the Baxter and Duk Duk Park N Bark Motel, it is my job to make sure all our guest spots are clean and tidy and foofie free.  Which means I have a lot of work to do considering what me n mario were doing during monkey chow munchies megamusic happy hour yesterday.

This is Baxter your roving rover reporter, wishing you a totally terrific Thursday!! :)

my friend mario: bubble trouble

hey everybuddy, whatchoo lookin at? is mario doing that cool thing again where he stares atchoo and puffs his cheeks up? i really hope he can come visit again when the circus bears come to town again cuz that would be such a cool thing to add to our sideshow.

uh-oh!

so many bubbles! and they were not here just a couple of days ago.

 lil pink puppy, u did not put any bubble bath in mario something something something obi wan kenobi's bowl, didjoo?


and duk duk, u did not...u know, make bubbles in there either, right?

and chocobot was with me playing thunderpoops n ladders all day so hmmmmmm.....


 maybe mario ate too much monkey chow munchies and foofied up his own water!!

 

(blink..blink...blink)

well....o, i know what we can do!

 

do not worry, mario something something obi wan kenobi, the scene is safe! i am going getchoo some of my emergency pepcid and soon your tummy will be as good as new.

we'll be right back mar-

 

why no, mom.  everything is fine.  we are just going to mario some medicine to help with his foofie tummy because as you can see he is bubbling up his bowl and considering his water is like our air i bet that really stinks -- what? oh?? really? 

well i'll be. mario made a bubble nest!   i had no idea fishies were part duk, didjoo?   

my friend: mario something something something obi wan kenobi

(okay, dad. his name is what again?...wow, really? are you sure?... okay. okay. no, do not worry, we got dis. me n duk duk promised the next door little misses sarah and julia we would take care of their pet fish while they were away at summer camp and a promise is a promise.  plus we can earn our inches in ichthyology and homies in hospitality chipscout badges all at the same time! okay lemme go greet our guest...)

baxter and duk duk's proper policies for polite pirates: interacting with girls

if a girl licks u, always wait until she turns away before kaacking off the cooties.

my visit with lulu & happy 4th of july!

dear diary,
hooray! yesterday my friend lulu came to visit for the day and i got to show her all the favorite things i like to do in the summer, like sniff the morning air from my open window and eat my daily tomato and why, yes,  we even did a little pirate training.  well, okay it started off as pirate training but somehow it turned into a garden tea party.  which lil pink puppy n chocobot were all excited about but for me n duk duk, not so much if u know what i mean. but lulu was our guest so you know, instead of there being a lot of arrrrr mateys like i was hopin,  the conversation was all, wouldjoo like one lump or two, and, fiddle dee dee, weren't the monkey chow scones with clotted cream just deee-lightful? (okay, don't tell duk duk but yes they were and boy i hope lulu makes them again sometime. and no i do not need a sister or a girlfriend.)

anyhoo, diary, i am really glad i got to spend time with my friend lulu and i am also glad that today is the 4th of july because u know what that means - it's grillin time! and it means i must run and help my dad by licking stuff off the deck so sadly, i must now bid you a fond...

toodleydoo!

dapper doxie duds: i like watermelon

dear diary, 
yippee! yesterday i got to model the dud mom finished for my new friend peyton and i am really excited bcuz it has a watermelon on it because peyton likes watermelon and hey i wonder if we still have any watermelon...nope..o well. so anyhoo my new friend peyton is a smooth black and tan whose mom said he would not be afraid to mix plaid and stripes and well certainly the same must be true about mixing dots and watermelons and bring bold happy colors, right?  and although he is not nearly as big as me, he is still big enough that i can model it. which was such a relief bcuz i was really hoping to earn my snackies yesterday,and well, i did!

so peyton, if u r reading my diary, i just wanted to say i hope u really like your new festive dud and if u get any watermelon please do tell me all about it because boo hoo we do not have any here.  o, and i hope u r having a very wonderful weekend!!

toodley-doo!

dapper doxie duds: take me out to the ball game

dear diary,
yesterday i finished modeling the last of the duds mom made while i was away, and i must say i sure hope mom will be making more duds soon bcuz me and my tummy will not otherwise know how to make up for the loss in the snackie bonuses we have been receiving all week. but even if that doesn't happen soon, at least we went out with a double header bcuz this pair of super cool red sox baseball duds were made for my wonderful friends  bogey and remy. i certainly hope they have as much fun wearing them as i did modeling them, because as you can see they are quite versatile and in fact bogey n remy could even make a movie with them and probably win an oscar because as you can see the duds and how u wear them can really help a pup elicit very nuanced emotion.

well diary, speaking of movies, i best get going bcuz me n duk duk are going start production on our top secret feature film project for school. i cannot tell you much about it but if u know of where we can buy a bowl big enough to make 5000 gallons of jello, u know where to find me.

toodley-doo!

dapper doxie duds: tucker's LSU Sporty Dud

hee hee, okay, one more time mister dragon, but this time, kick AND foofie!

- baxter, 5.25 years old, on teaching the finer points of foofie football to his friend mister dragon.

Well hello, it's me, Baxter, your roving rover reporter reporting to you today on another dud my mom made while me and duk duk were away on spring break camping on foofie mountain.  Today, it's all about football.  Or, LSU football that is. Which, I really don't know how to play even though I had a chance to learn and earn a badge for it back on foofie mountain but did not because I was busy making - er, hunting - poopie snakes, but as u can probably tell from the picture above, it really doesn't matter.  Cuz mostly I think u kick and tackle and run and well, all the stuff we do in foofie football except for the foofie part. So I hope my friend Tucker will still feel right at home wearing his new dud because from what I hear, his little sister Tilly is all about tackling him, just like it's done in either game.  Hee hee, come to think of it, maybe she needs a football dud, too.

Anyhoo, even though my tummy and I had a fine time modeling Tucker's LSU football dud, I am so glad to give you an opportunity to see Tucker modeling his own dud too. Doesn't he look swell?  I hope he has plenty of swell adventures in it.

This is Baxter your roving rover reporter, wishing you a very happy and poopie filled Thursday.  :)

dapper doxie duds: penny princess's purple posey dud

Well hello, it's me, Baxter, your roving reporter reporting to you today from my home. Now, it's wet and rainy here but I like to think it's because I just helped my mom send a happy package of sunshine to my friend Penny Princess.  You see, while I was away, apparently mom got a lot done in the crafty department and so today I wanted to show u the dud she made especially for Penny Princess.  And yeah, you guessed it, I was a little too big to be modeling her dud.  So maybe today we both can use our imaginations to think about how the dud might look on Penny, who is a really cool piebald who looks like - well why don't you see for yourself?










Yep this is my friend Penny but her mom calls her Princess a lot and so I guess I like to think of her as Penny Princess.  And just like me she is a rescue, only not like me she has a brother which sometimes I think would be cool til my tummy chimes in and reminds me I would have to share my snackies and really, I do not get enough snackies as it is.

But anyhow, are you ready to see Penny Princess's new purple posey dud and imagine how she looks in it, because here it is!

Yep, Penny's purple posey dud was made with a periwinkle and purple and magenta cotton batik and embellished with an iridescent and mixed glass beaded handmade flower, topped off with a very sweet sterling silver and amethyst dangle.  I hope she likes it! And maybe if my tummy is lucky tomorrow I will report to you about a dud that actually fits me.  But for now, this is Baxter your roving rover reporter wishing you the wonderfullest of Wednesdays! :)

dapper doxie duds: puppsburgh steelers

okay mom, i am ready to model oskar's new steelers dud....wait? what?  i might actually be able to fit this one?  oh yippee! give me a second to put it on right, okay?

ta da!  o me so cannot wait for oskar to get his new dud and maybe when he gets it he will show me how to play football or at least show me how to make steel bcuz me n duk duk can really use a lot of it for the skyscraper we plan 2 make this spring after we are done with the trebuchet :)

thank u :)

dear diary,
even though i started off this week not so swell with a fizzy tummy, look at how lucky i got by the end of it!  yep, that's right, my friend oskar sent me bear biscuits! and yeah u know i could tell that package that came in the mail was 4 me.   me n duk duk cannot wait to try catching a bear with them, but just 2 be sure i had to taste test them to make sure they were going to work. and they were delicious!!  thank u so much oskar and miss alicia!

well diary, speaking of fizzy tummies i have 2 spend at least part of this weekend catching up on all the schoolwork i missed which is sort of a bummer because if we do catch a bear this weekend, well i guess duk duk will have to be very persuasive on his own about why the bear should stick around to join our circus act this year.

anyhoo, i hope u r having a wonderful saturday!! :)

toodley-doo!

dapper doxie duds: penny for your thoughts

Well hello, it's me, Baxter, your roving rover reporter, reporting to you today from the ninth annual hat lady convention and garden party.   Hee hee, okay well no not really, even though I am wearing what looks to be a really swell hat, aren't I?

I am here to report to you today on something even cooler - the dud my mom made for my new friend Penny!  And besides me not really being able to fit Penny's new dud, there is a really good reason why Penny's new dud is on my head because you see, Penny and her mom n dad are behind the super fun site, stuffonmywiener.com!  So naturally I needed to model penny's dud on my wiener noggin, right?

Anyhoo, this is Penny.  She is lovely, isn't she? 

And here is a closer peek at her new dud!  My mom says it is made from a deep raspberry pink diamond weave mercerized cotton interlock bound in indigo denim and the flower is made from hand dyed silk satin mixed with an imported quilting cotton print and mixed iridescent glass beads and fresh water pearls. I say, I hope Penny will love it!

Anyhoo, this is Baxter your roving rover reporter wishing you the foofiest of Sundays! :) :)

dapper doxie dud: the midnight sky

Hey everybuddy it's me, Baxter, your roving rover reporter reporting to you today about the goodies my mom finished yesterday for my friend Pinto. As u can see, Pinto is a very cool piebald and yeah u guessed it, he is actually close to my size, which is why I can actually model the dud my mom made for him.  I like to call this one the midnight sky, because the dyed corduroy my mom made and used reminds me of yeah u guessed it again, the midnight sky.  Only on this night the moon is full which is why you see glints of swirly lights and darks on the fabric and asymmetrical silk necktie embellishment  and of course, the vintage watch movement full moon!

Hee hee, oh yeah, did I also mention Pinto ordered up an Elmer Fudd Flapjack too? And yeah I can fit that too so here I am wearing it!  I am so very excited for Pinto because me n duk duk are going to take the pedal car today and drop it off at the post office and then he will have it in no time. 

Next up on the crafty list? My mom says the fabulous Penny's dud, and then after that she will be working on a ton of fit models so if u have been waiting patiently, thank u and know that I will be helping mom with everything these next couple to three weeks so stay tuned!

I am Baxter your roving rover reporter wishing you a very delightful and foofie filled Saturday!! :)

three little dukkies

"...any-  anywuh- oh, anyway.  anyway have fun with your new toy- toyfriends! your buddy,  kona."  

ooooh didjoo hear that, duk duk?  kona says your nephews can stay forever! yippeeeee!! oooh lil pink puppy is gonna be so happy to have his own little duk duk friends to play with. let's feed them some monkeychow milkshakes and then while they are gassing up we should write kona back and tell him that the three little dukkies arrived safe n sound.   :) :)











(thank u so much for my new little dukkies, miss mary anne and kona!!!)

dapper doxie duds: feelin stitchy!

dear diary,
well it turns out u cannot get netflix via the telegraph like we were hopin, so the ride out west is long and slow and even though it is foofie filled, we can hardly wait to get off this train and walk on the dry sandy soil of my cousin jasper's ranch.  and hopefully find a real sandworm so we can ride it.

but anyhoo, as i have nothing really 2 report today bcuz we are still on the train, i thought i would show u the wonderful duds i helped my mom make for my friend stitch, a long haired chocolatey dapple who is not only getting a happy black and turquoise aqua sushi dud, but also these super duper ones!  and yeah as u might guess, stitch is a lot smaller than i am otherwise i would have modeled them all for u.

hee hee, yeah that's right, stitch was named after stitch, so of course he needed a stitch dud, right?

and even though we just celebrated the new year's arrival, can u believe there will be another new year coming up?  this time it will be the year of the dragon and wouldn'tchoo know that mom found a lovely embroidered silk robe back in chicago thinking the right pup would come along and need this turned into a harness and wouldn'tchoo that that right pup was stitch?  















and yep, this was the one that started it all.  bcuz when stitch's mom first contacted my mom she decided she wanted a very nice quilty dud for her boy and well, u know what they say about potato chips?  my dud drawer and now stitch's dud drawer is a testament to the fact thatchoo can't have just one.

mehopes u likey them very much stitch and i cannot wait to see u wearing them!!!


toodley-doo,

dapper doxie duds: quintin & jewel's deutscher duo

Hey everybuddy, it's me, Baxter, your roving rover reporter, reporting to you today about the happy duds my mom just finished for my friends Quintin and Jewel.  My friend Quintin is the doxie on the right and his family are fans of the German National football team (that's Die deutsche Fußballnationalmannschaft in case u were wondering).  So Quintin's mom and my mom thought that Quintin could use a little something sporty and since the team's regular white uniform wasn't very practical for a doxie dud,  mom decided to to use one of Michael Ballack's curvy pieced red jerseys for inspiration and even included a little reflective piping so Quintin can stand out at a night game. Super cool, right? I would have modeled it for u but mom says there is a reason she calls me her little kielbasa and not her little vienna sausage.  I say...yeah, it didn't fit me even when I held my breath.  But here it is!

  And looky! I can fit Quintin's sister Jewel's dud! And me so likey cuz it has squirrels and deer on them and it has piping that mom made expecially for it and it has buttons and it is made from a nice red cotton pique and it reminds me of a very happy german fairy tale just like the one I read with lil pink puppy the other night. U know, the one with the deer n squirrels in it and the forest with the magic kibble tree that grants three wishes?  

Anyhoo, mehopes that Quintin and Jewel will enjoy their new duds very much and me also hopes that u enjoyed seeing them as much as I enjoyed reporting about them. This is Baxter your roving rover reporter wishing u a very happy Thursday! :)  

bowwow to your sensei

Hello! It's me, Baxter, your not so roving rover reporter. Not reporting to you today because I am training to become a luchador.  And even though it is raining out, a good luchador must train everyday. Rain or shine.  Would u like to come inside and join me?

To fight his enemy, a good luchador must be very patient and focused.

He must not let temptation distract him from his very important goals.  To defend his honor and fight for his country.  To live another day so that he may lucha again.

(blink)  (blink)...

(sniff.....sniff.)

(blink)

But an even better luchador knows how to recover after he has fallen to temptation, dontchoo think?  :)

Hey mom, how do u turn the camera off?

(hee hee hee, thank u ramsay for the super delicious giant snackie and fun fun hippo toy!!!!!)
