Rocky Creek Scottie Adventures

...WELL....ALMOST.....

2012-02-28T11:44:00.002-05:00

Some of you have asked
for a picture of Ivy.
She is almost impossible
to catch sitting still.
And then when we catch her,
as soon as she sees the camera,
she moves.

Mom took this photo
through our laundry room window -
we know it's not the best,
but it lets you see how big
she's getting.
She'll soon be a year old!!

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and Ivy

A DOG'S PLEA by Beth Norman Harris

2012-02-24T11:33:00.004-05:00

Treat me kindly,
my beloved friend,
for no heart in all the world
is more grateful for the kindness
than the loving heart of me.

Do no break my spirit with a stick,
for though I might lick your hand between blows,
your patience and understanding
will quickly teach me the things
you would have me learn.

Speak to me often,
for your voice is the world's sweetest music,
as you must know by the fierce wagging of my tail
when the sound of your footstep falls
upon my waiting ear.

Please take me inside when it is cold and wet,
for I am a domesticated animal,
no longer accustomed to bitter elements.
I ask no greater glory than the privilege
of sitting at your feet
beside the hearth.

Keep my pan filled with fresh water,
for I cannot tell you when I suffer thirst.

Feed me clean food that I might stay well,
to romp and play and do your bidding,
to walk by your side and stand ready,
willing and able to protect you with my life,
should your life be in danger.

And my friend, when I am very old,
and I no longer enjoy good health,
hearing and sight,
do not make heroic efforts to keep me going.
I am not having any fun.

Please see that my trusting life is taken gently.
I shall leave this Earth knowing
with the last breath I draw that my fate
was always safest in your hands.

In memory of our
sweet Java Bean
and all of our furieds
who have crossed
The Rainbow Bridge.

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and Ivy

HAVE YOU TRIED ORIJEN FOOD?

2012-02-23T05:16:00.002-05:00

When we received an email asking us
if we would like to try Orijen dog food,
of course our answer was a resounding
"ARRROOO"

Like all Scotties,
we are very curious,
but when we found out that
Orijen was produced
using only the freshest ingredients,
we knew it had to be great!!

We got the Orijen Regional Red.
When our Dad read the ingredients,
he said,
"that's good enough for humans"
so it must be good enough for Scotties!!

Orijen,
we give you
"4 paws up"
for freshness, taste and content!!

We hope to see it in our dinner plate again.

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and Ivy

PS - One of the things we like about Orijen
is that it is good for dogs of all sizes through all stages of life.

DOES YOUR MOM MAKE YOU STRIP ON A SNOWY DAY

2012-02-21T09:38:00.003-05:00

On Monday morning,
we woke up to 8 3/4 inches of snow -
almost as tall as a Scottie!!

We love these days -
Dad gets to stay home from work
and we get to watch TV and movies
and Mom usually fixes us some popcorn.

Yesterday was a bit different -
Dad says "some dog" stinks -
we all wanted to hide
because we didn't want to be "some dog".

Mom soon figured out that "some dog"
was Piper.
So Piper got to get on the grooming table,
get combed out, stripped some, bathed,
dried with the hair dryer and then stripped
a bit more.

He's starting to look like his old self -
you see,
last summer when it was so hot,
Mom grabbed Piper up
and clipped him and that was a bad mistake.
He lost all of his hard coat
so now she is working to get it back.
She thinks by Fall he'll be back "in coat".

And the rest of us
got to watch Gunsmoke
and then a movie -
and we all got popcorn
during the movie.
But you know
now that Piper smells so good,
pretty soon,
"some other dog" will stink.
Please let it be Ivy!!

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and Ivy

2012-02-08T10:11:00.007-05:00

When our computer was down,
we received an invitation
to order $50.00 in merchandise
from Mr Chewy.

As soon as we were
up and running again,
we contacted them
let them know we were interested.

Since we live
in an area of the United States
that has a limited selection
of stores to shop for pets,
we were excited to see
that Mr. Chewy
offers more than 70 brands
of high quality pet food.

Your favorite food can be delivered
right to your front door!!
And best of all -
with a $49.00 order,
Mr. Chewy offers FREE shipping -
and is it ever quick!

Check out all of this loot!!
Mr. Chewy's prices on food
are the same or less
than most stores
and the selection is far better!!

We all got to get something special,
just for ourself - even Ivy,
plus we got some treats to share!!
Our Mom says we'll definitely be repeat customers
at Mr Chewy's.

PSA - RETRACTABLE DOG LEASHES

2012-02-02T19:42:00.002-05:00

We know that many of your peeps
use retractable dog leashes
like the ones pictures above.

Today, we received the following email
from our local humane society
and wanted to pass it on to you so
that you could warn your peeps
to be careful - we'd hate for something
like this to happen to one of you.

I want to share with all of you a story of what happened to a couple’s dog while on the retractable leash. This couple was very responsible when it came to their little Rat Terrier named Fifi. Fifi went on 2 or 3 walks a day, slept with her owners every night, ate expensive food, and played with her mommy all day long while daddy worked. Fifi went everywhere with her mommy and daddy, including vacation! One drizzly afternoon, Fifi and her mommy went for their usual walk. They decided to get their mail out of the mailbox on the way back. While holding the mail and umbrella in one hand and the leash in the other, Fifi decided to take off running. Mommy tried to retract the leash to get her back because she headed for the street, however the button seemed to get stuck and she was too late. Fifi ran underneath the wheel of an oncoming school bus and was killed instantly. Needless to say that retractable leash went into the trash and this couple will never use one again. I wanted to pass this story on to you in case any of you currently use one. For those of you in rescue, I hope for the sake of your dogs that you will educate your adopters on the potential danger this leash can be. This freak accident would not have happened with a regular leash. This story has certainly been an eye opener for me, and I hope it will be for all of you as well!

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and Ivy

WE'RE BACK!!

2012-01-31T09:21:00.002-05:00

Almost 2 weeks ago,
when we woke up,
there were no blue lights
on our modem.

When we called tech support,
they told us our modem had died
and sent out another one -
we have a stoopid satellite linkup.

Once we got the new modem,
our satellite dish didn't like it
so we had to have a technician
come out and point us to a new satellite -
it is 22,000 miles away!!

Now we are back on track -
and after we answer our 850 emails,
hopefully, we'll be back to blogging.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

JUST A LITTLE PUPDATE

2012-01-17T18:39:00.004-05:00

Our Ruairi
is enjoying the NW sun -
we hear a heavy snow is
predicted for today/tonight.

Arlo is learning
to be a "big" boy
and stand on the grooming table.
He's took a blue ribbon or two!!

Finleigh (Becky and Ruairi's sister)
is a great big sister to Bindy.
Their Mom says they
"play and play".

Miss Emma
is learning a lot
about cold weather.
She and her big brother Bosco
are keeping their peeps entertained.

Brodie loves the snow,
but with it comes
the dreaded mud!!

Argyle's Mom has a blog
and you can see his pictures there.

In 2011,
The Scottish Terrier Rescue
of the Carolinas
helped place 49 Scotties.
They are now selling
a wonderful cookbook
to help fund their endeavors.
Please go here for the information.

UPDATES....

2012-01-04T09:37:00.004-05:00

We know we've slacked off
but what can we say
other than
"good secretaries are
hard to find these days"

Ruairi is having a grand time
in Seattle being an only dog -
and his peeps are in love with him!
He sent us this New Year picture.

Miss Emma left us today.
She is the last of the puppies.
Her sweet Dad came all the way
from Kentucky to get her.

When we had a rainstorm
before Christmas,
Mom got a big surprise.
Her Bogs sprung a big leak
so she had to get an updated pair.
Check out these new ones -
she likes them
and they keep her feet
nice and dry,
but she says they are not good
for 13 degree Fahrenheit weather!!

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

BUGLETS - OFF AND RUNNING....

2011-12-27T20:34:00.001-05:00

You'll have to excuse our secretary
for not posting for a week -
we finally got her down
off that tight-rope,
stopped her from
jumping through hoops
and caught all of the balls
she was juggling!!

We want to introduce you
to the buglet's new families.

Grace,
formerly Holly,
is going to live
with Holly
in Northern Virginia.

Bindy
is going to live with
Jim and Diane
and her half sister, Finleigh
in mid-Virginia.

Brodie
is going to live
with the Roden family
in Northern Virginia.

Argyle
is going to live with
Mike and Holly,
Rory and Fiona
in Pennsylvania.

Emma is here alone
with all the toys,
but soon she will be going

to live with Vicki and Bosco
in Kentucky.

We hope they all keep us
updated regularly.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

Emma

SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO MAKE DIFFICULT DECISIONS

2011-12-09T06:15:00.001-05:00

You might remember
that we had a special litter
of nine puppies,
born on February 9th, 2010.

Out of that litter,

we kept one puppy
with us here at
Rocky Creek Farm -
"The Handsome Red King"

Our little
Ruairi Coinneach of Rocky Creek Farm
was such a delightful little pup -

and grew up beautifully.

But sometimes life situations change
and we have to make difficult decisions.
We decided to rehome Ruairi,
but thankfully we found him
a fantastic home
where he is the only dog
and the center of the world
for Dennis and Linda.

Dad flew Ruairi
out to them on Tuesday
and he got to fly in the cabin with Dad -
he's a marvelous traveler.
We knew he would be
because he loves to ride.
Guess where he lives now??

Mom just got off the telephone
with Ruairi's new peeps
and he is adjusting beautifully
to his new home.
It's a great fit for all concerned -
we hope to go visit him
sometime soon.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

The Sweet Buglets

STILL SEARCHING....

2011-12-06T12:23:00.002-05:00

Every Christmas,
our Mom has visions
of that illusive photo....

Lilly was very patient with Mom,
wore the Santa Dress,
let Mom put her in the puppy basket,
just gave Mom a little "stink-eye".

Enter the puppies
with their Santa hats
and before Mom could
get them all adjusted,
out goes Lilly.

"You know who"
did a bit of cute posing
while the others played
in the background.

And soon they all had
to join the fracas -
that got Lilly back up
and checking on them,
but not in the basket.

But this sweetie-wheatie
decided to give us a cute pose-
we just don't know who it is.

Lilly was happy to see them go
back into their box -
they are much easier to watch
in their familiar territory.

Mom needs about five extra hands
to get that photograph she's searching for.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND

A SCOTTIE FAMILY NEEDS YOUR HELP TONIGHT

2011-11-30T17:47:00.007-05:00

***the pictures from this story are so graphic,
they will not be included***

It has come to my attention that a

Scottish Terrier named Chief,

who belonged to Patrick Koval of Bulrington, Iowa,

was violated in his own,

fenced-in yard on the night of November 23^rd.

On November 29^th,

Chief died of injuries from this horrible event.

Not only was a person or persons

allowed to trespass on Patrick’s property,

they also destroyed one of his dearest friends,

his loving dog, Chief.

Patrick is offering a reward of $1000.00

for information leading to

arrest and conviction of this person/persons.

There are 14,820 cases in the animal abuse database. A large percentage of these are people who intentionally hurt animals because they enjoy hurting things, or because it makes them feel powerful. Many of these people would hurt other people if they could get away with it. They just choose to hurt animals because animals are more helpless than people. Though a good percentage continue to grow their aggression up the ladder! A lot of these people want to have control over others ~ Or they may hurt the animal to control another person. These persons suffer from serious, psychological problems that will probably not go away on their own.

Intentionally hurting animals for any reason is serious.

You can help by sending emails to the following people asking that this criminal act be thoroughly investigated and treated as should be to the fullest extent of the law.

chief of police - lutteneggerd@burlingtoniowa.org
the mayor of Burlington, Iowa - ellb@burlingtoniowa.org
the local TV station - oreilly@foxnews.com
the local papers - news@thehawkeye.com

Thank you for taking a minute out of your day

to help find someone who would injure

one of our breed

or any breed.

SLEEP, EAT......

2011-11-28T09:22:00.003-05:00

The Sweet Buglets
are really busy these days.
Growing is a hard job.

They spend a lot of time sleeping
with one eye open.
It's amazing that they
learn this so young in life.
It's hard to sneak up on them
when they are sleeping because
one of them wakes up and then
that one wakes up everyone else.

And now we are feeding them
three times a day.
Their food is still soft
but they are learning
how to eat hard kibble
and to drink water.
They have alligator teeth now!!

Then there are the
mounds of laundry!!
We don't mind
because we love them so much.

Thank God
for Johnson and Johnson Baby Powder.
It keeps them dry
because we put it between their sheets.
And when you pick up a buglet,
it smells baby fresh!!

AN INTRODUCTION, A REMEMBRANCE and PUPPY PICTURES!!

2011-11-15T09:23:00.004-05:00

As you have figured out by now,
there is a puppy or two
in every litter
that steals the show,
especially when it comes to photographs.

Our first "Snazzi Jazzi" was such a pup -
always in the lime-light -
the smallest in stature,
but the largest in personality.

She because the gorgeous
Finleigh McBee of Signy's Cottage.

The next litter
gave us Fergus
and if you remember
one day we declared our blog to be
a "Fergus Free Zone"

He became the handsome Liam,
named in honor of Sweet William.

Today,
we would like to introduce
Finleigh to Liam,
even though they are brother and sister
(14 months apart to the day).
It seems they go to the same Vet,
but have never ran into each other.
We hope they get to meet "in dog"
one day.

Today,
we are also trying to remember
just how sweet our little Ivy once was.
Yesterday, she tore our outside trash cans apart
not once, not twice, but three times -
that's about Mom's limit.
It's a good thing that Mom
believes in new beginnings!!

And here are the present babies -
Brodie and Argyle.

The whole crew is starting to get really inquisitive -
and LOUD!!
They can growl and bark and play a bit of bitey face now.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy
and
The Sweet Buglets

NAPTIME

2011-11-14T05:54:00.002-05:00

After the puppies eat,
they play for about 5 minutes
and then they quietly settle into a corner
for their nap.

WHERE'S MY PUPPY WUPPY?

2011-11-12T14:05:00.005-05:00

Today marks a milestone
in the life our our puppies.

It's the first time they hear the call,
"where's my puppy-wuppy?"

Then for the first time

the see the red bowl
and smell the puppy gruel.
They wander around,
sniffing and finally one of them
decides to investigate.

Then everyone else starts getting curious

Pretty soon,
they all decide to give it a try.

gathering around,

walking through the food

and cleaning it off each other's faces.

Then Lilly gets to get in
and clean up the leftovers
and the puppies get a bit of dessert!!

HAPPY HOWL-O-WEEN

2011-10-31T10:30:00.004-04:00

Since we've never had
Howl-O-Ween babies before,
we decided to turn the blog
over to
Lilly and the buglets
for today.

Three of the buglets
wanted to dress as triplets.

But since we know
you are all thinking it,
we could not resist
including this
"three blind mice" pose.

Here we have two of the most
adorable firefighters
you've ever seen.

Happy Howl-O-Ween
from our clan to yours.

GROWING OUT OF OUR HOME..

2011-10-29T12:31:00.002-04:00

When babies are born,
they live in a whelping box
with their Mom
until their eyes are open
and they are walking around.

When Mom has to clean their whelping box
(usually at this stage, it's twice a day)
she finds another box to put them in.

This time it was a
Coca-Cola box.
She put a nice soft towel
in the bottom
and then lined it with a fleece blanket.
When the puppies leave us,
they will get to take
one of these fleece blankets
home with them so they
will have the smell of their litter
to comfort them for a night or two.

But they are growing so fast
that Mom thinks that soon
she'll have to
"break out the basket"
because her Coca-Cola box
will not hold them too many more days!!

Look at Mr. Brodie -
already over a pound -
and by tomorrow,
we feel that the rest of the puppies
will join him!!

Here is Miss Iverness.
Mom caught her sitting down
but as soon as she saw Mom,
she leaped up
and started running toward her.
It's like we've told you before -
Ivy sits still for no woman's camera!!

A CONTEST TO CELEBRATE!!

2011-10-28T10:22:00.004-04:00

It was just a regular, rainy day
on
Rocky Creek Farm.

As usual,
Mom wanted to line the puppies up
and get a cute photograph.
They complied on the cuteness,
but not on the lining up.

Every time she got them in a row,
they got back in a pile
before she could pick up her camera.

Then she started to notice some long toenails.
She had clipped a few here and there,
but today was the first official
"toe-nail clipping" day.
Like all terriers,
they hated it!!

Soon they were back in their
pleasing puppy pile
and going back to sleep.

We wanted to let your know that the
big sissy, Becky Bluebonnet
and
Uncle Gussie
to the puppies
is hosting a giveaway
in honor of their birth.

There will be FIVE gifts
and the drawing will be on Halloween.

To be entered,
all you have to do is leave a comment
on either their blog or ours -
if you haven't visited theirs, you should.
They have some phenomenal photos!!

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy
and
The Sweet Buglets

THE BUGLETS ARE ONE WEEK OLD TODAY!!

2011-10-27T12:15:00.004-04:00

It's hard for us
to believe the buglets
are one week old today!!

Who,
but our Mom,
would grab a buglet
away from its Mom
to take its first week photograph?

She does this because she knows
as soon as she lays it back down,
it will go right back to what it was doing
before she picked it up.

You can see that
Miss Holly
is still wearing a smidgen
of the nail polish
that Mom uses to identify
the pups when they are born.

Snazzi Jazzi -
she's a smirker already.
Better keep an eye out -
Lacie-cakes will be over
trying to teach her a trick or three!!

Little Miss Emma Lynn -
so sweet and demure.
She better get rested up
because she's got a 7 month
old wheaten Scottie brother
waiting at home for her.

Every litter has one "big boy"
and this litter didn't disappoint us -
look at those muscles on Brodie!!

And our little Argyle -
he really wanted to get back
to the business of having his din-din.

Have a great day.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy
and
The Sweet Buglets

TO ANSWER THE QUESTION.....

2011-10-26T09:14:00.007-04:00

Our Mom has been a dog lover
all her life
and always dreamed of raising puppies.

Some of you who are new to our blog
have wondered about the parents
of the puppies we have now.

This is
Spencer's Lilly Greer
before she came to live with us.

Here she is the day
she moved into our home
and took over our life.

Now she is the lovely matriarch
of our pack -
and the mother
of the five buglets.

This is a 10 week old Piper
looking over Mom's shoulder.

Rocky Creek's Bagpiper
has always been the most
self-assured dog
and loves to pose for the camera.

He grew into a handsome
young stud, but still retained
his loving nature.
Piper is the father of the buglets.

Mom still seeks to get a great photo
of him and Lilly together.
One day.....

BANG THE DRUMS!!
BLOW THE HORNS!!
We have an announcement to make!!
We usually don't know this early
in a puppy's life where they will live,
but we do know about Colleen.
Colleen will be moving to Kentucky
and from now on,
her name will be
Rocky Creek's Emma Lynn
and we will call her Emma.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy
and
The Sweet Buglets

SOME HABITS START AT AN EARLY AGE

2011-10-25T11:01:00.003-04:00

Just when we get the buglets
all lined up in a row
to take their photograph -

Holly, Jazzi, Colleen, Brodie and Argyle

They decide they aren't happy
with the order that they are placed in -
remind you of anydog you know?

Of course, now we can't tell if they are sleeping
or being shy

but this one boy
already knows he doesn't
want to lie on his back!!
And he already knows
how to growl.
Check out those little bear paws!!

Colleen and Brodie
cuddle together while they
wait patiently for their turn
to be weighed and imprinted
before they are put back
in their clean bed with their Mom.

This morning we heard our Mom say
that having five puppies
is a "piece of cake".
Ever since then,
we've been looking for it.
If you know where she put it,
let us know -
we're ready for a bite or two.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy
and
The Sweet Buglets

WE'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE...

2011-10-24T13:56:00.004-04:00

Our Mom helped Lilly
deliver the buglets
and then she was
off to Pennsylvania
to take our
Granny and Mary
to
see the play,
Joseph.

Dad watched us.

Today,
Mom took
Lilly and the buglets
to the Vet
for their checkup
and dew claw removal.

After they got home,
had din-din
and rested,
she decided
it was time
for their first single photograph.

We have named them
so we can tell them apart.
Their new peeps
will change their names
when they go home with them.

Here they are
in their birth order.

Holly
(named in honor of Auntie Holly who
supported us spiritually
through this whole pregnancy)

Jazzi
(named after "you know who"
and is the loudest puppy in the litter)

Colleen
(named in honor of our
Scottie furiend, Colleen)

Brodie

Argyle
( named in honor of Lilly's sweetie)

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy
and
The Sweet Buglets

BUGLETS, BUGLETS, BUGLETS......

2011-10-20T10:19:00.003-04:00

We had been watching
our Lillybug
closely to see
when the day would be.

Mom predicted Thursday,
but she didn't think
it would be so
early in the morning.

The first buglet
arrived at 4:20 am.

We're fairly sure
that Mom can count -
but who knows -
she's been wrong before.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy
plus
The Buglets

WE HAVE A WINNER!!

2011-10-19T10:48:00.004-04:00

Our giveaway for the free postcards
from UPrinting
ended at midnight
last night.

Mom typed out all of the names for us
and got them ready.
She never lets us use the scissors
because all we do is run with them -
and it scares her half to death!!

She folded all the names
and put them in a little plate.

To make it more interesting,
she sprinkled around a few
Charlie Bears.

She sat the plate down on the floor
and watched very carefully
for us to nose out the
first name.

Then she picked it up-

And read it to us -

Congrats to
Hound Girl.
Her blog will win
100 postcards
from UPrinting!!

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

FALL ACROSS THE BLUE RIDGE

2011-10-18T07:31:00.000-04:00

As they started up our driveway,
Dad started telling Mom
that he brought along the camera
just in case
they happened upon
a grand and glorious photo.

About that time,
he raised his head
and saw all of these buzzards
sitting atop of our fence post.

After they allowed Dad to
take a few snapshots,
they decided to take flight.

One lone one decided
to do a "totem pole" dance for him.

The rest of the day
was spent exploring
the gorgeous countryside.

They never got more than
25 miles from home.

It just seemed like a great little staycation.

Farmers markets

Buckwheat cakes with gravy

Little whittled animals

Ghostly pumpkins

We're not sure what this is -
it could be Virginia Creeper.

Apple crates
waiting to be filled.

Apple trees
that had already been picked.

And the day ended with a glass
of
Foggy Ridge Apple Cider.

We hope you had a great weekend.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

IT'S TRUE COLOURS THURSDAY - GREEN

2011-10-13T09:43:00.004-04:00

Good Morning,
Welcome to
True Colours Thursday.
Miss Blue
picked the colour, GREEN,
for today.

Here's our man,
Piper,
strutting around in the
GREEN grass
of our front yard.

And about two days later,
Ruairi,
shows us that the seasons
are changing fast -
the leaves are beginning to fall.

Yesterday,
Arlo brought his sister, Abby,
to visit us at
Rocky Creek Farm.

He strutted around all day
in his GREEN muscle shirt-
check out that cute puppy dog physique!!

The colour for next week will be
ORANGE-
why don't you play along?

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

WHAT TO DO ON A FALL DAY

2011-10-11T09:01:00.004-04:00

This morning as
Dad left for school,

we stepped out onto the porch
and looked around.

The cattle are grazing
on this wonderful
rainy Fall day.

The leaves are getting
more colorful every day.

The blue birds have left
our lone little birdhouse.

Ruairi has already
been bathed and dried.

So has Piper.

We girls wait in apprehension,
because we know we'll be next.

And then after everyone is
bathed and dried,
the stripping and clipping will start.

And it will look like Mom has
been plucking chickens
in our living room.

Lucky Ivy -
she's just out
playing in the rain.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

TRUE COLOURS THRUSDAY - RED

2011-10-06T12:42:00.004-04:00

We decided to play along with
Maggie and Mitch.
The colour for today is
RED.
Lilly is sporting
our clan tartan -
and a cute tam
made from it
that she borrowed
from her friend, Abby!
Maybe one day,
Mom will make her a kilt.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

WE WERE PATIENTLY WAITING....

2011-10-05T07:51:00.005-04:00

We knew yesterday
was the day.

The reminder had been
on our sidebar for weeks!!

We had been licking our lips
in anticipation.

We knew there was plenty of hamburger
in our freezer -
all she had to do was
get some out and cook it.

We all love veggies -
except we don't eat onions -
we know they can be toxic
to some dogs.

We have plenty of plates.

We have good manners.

We always clean up after we eat.

We wonder
WHY OH WHY
did our silly secretary
forget
TACO DAY??

We'll make sure that doesn't
happen again!!

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

BIG BOY HAIR CUTS

2011-09-27T08:01:00.005-04:00

Remember how in every picture we took,
Jock and Fergus
were always together.

Even now,
though they live in the same state
but over a 100 miles apart,
they are still doing the same things.

You might follow Jock's blog
because he is now
Todd
and lives with a herd of
Golden Retrievers at Golden Pines.

This weekend,
Todd got his first big boy haircut!!
His groomer
left him looking more like a puppy
than most groomers do
and we think he looks so sweet -
he has an adolescent
Scottie look -
we just hope he's not going through
"the terrible twos!!".

Liam (Fergus) who lives with his
big brother Monty,
really got the big boy look!!

Check him out.

Some things never change -
remember those eyes were always
the focus in every picture
we took of him -
and he's still got
those wonderful
"Piper" eyes.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

WHEW!! WHAT A BUSY WEEKEND!!

2011-09-21T08:12:00.005-04:00

As most of you know,
this past weekend
was the
Southwestern Virginia
Scottish Terrier Club's
Specialty Show.

We had to stay at home,
but Mom and Dad
went both days
and really enjoyed it.

There was a silent auction.

A bazaar table with 100's of
Scottie items.

Lectures on ring presentation,
Scottie grooming, health issues
and reproductive issues.

Old friends got to visit
with one another.

And Mom made a lot
of new friends.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

REMEMBER WHEN OUR MOM COULDN'T COUNT?

2011-09-19T08:01:00.004-04:00

Well, it seems that must run
in Carrleigh's family.

Many of you remember
about 2 years ago
when our Mom posted that
Carrleigh had 7 puppies
and had to come back later
and tell you there were 2 more.

This sweet little Scarlet
was the darkest girl
in that group of seven puppies.

This is what she looked like
when we last saw her.
Doesn't she look happy in her
forever home!!

She's been busy there,
growing into a
mighty fine Scottish lassie.

Now,
she's a Mom too.

She pulled the same trick Carrleigh did.
Scarlet's Mom emailed us on Saturday
and told us that Scarlet had 5
little black puppies.
Then on Sunday,
we got another email
saying she was wrong -
Scarlet had another puppy.

Scarlet and all six
of her little brood are doing great
and she is a fantastic Mom.

That makes Carrleigh and Piper
a
Grandma and Grandpa -
and there are
5 new uncles
and 3 new aunts out there
so
CELEBRATE!!

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

THE SCOTTISH TERRIER CLUB OF WESTERN VIRGINIA 50TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIALTY SHOW

2011-09-14T11:33:00.003-04:00

This weekend marks the
50th Anniversary
of
The Scottish Terrier Club
of
Western Virginia.

There will be a very informative seminar
on Friday
and a
Scottie specialty show
on Saturday.

This lovely cross-stitch picture
will be raffled off.

Please check out their website
for more details.

PIPE THE PIPES ~~~~~ BEAT THE DRUMS

2011-09-13T10:20:00.003-04:00

It's Carrleigh's
"GOTCHA DAY"

This is the picture
that Mom was sent
when Carolyn let her know
that she wanted her to have Carrleigh -
isn't she elegant!!

But she's been so much fun-
we've never seen any dog
that likes to play "dress-up"
as much as Carrleigh does.

She's been a great
Mom and Aunt
to some wonderful clans of puppies.

And now we want to announce
her retirement!!
For her retirement,
she will be moving to
sunny, southern California
to live with our wonderful Sissy -
the rest of us are all jealous,
but we know Carrleigh
not only deserves to be
"Queen for a Day",
she needs to be a
queen for the rest of her life -
and she will be.
We couldn't be happier for
both of them.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

POWER OF THE PAW

2011-09-12T11:52:00.004-04:00

Tutorin'

Snippin'

Clippin'

Our boy,
Ruairi,
and his Mother,

Carrleigh,
are spending the night with
Dr. Jim.

There will be no more
wagon-loads of puppies -
at least from Carrleigh,
that is.

Please keep them
in your thoughts
and send the
"power of the paw"
their way.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

WE FLY OUR FLAG PROUDLY TODAY

2011-09-11T00:01:00.000-04:00

We fly our flag proudly today
in honor of the people
who lost their lives
during the attack
on our country.
We also want to thank
the brave heroes and heroines
who have fought
to maintain the freedom
that we hold so dear.

XOXO

HAPPY FIVE MONTH BIRTHDAY TO THE SWEET BABES

2011-09-09T09:31:00.004-04:00

Remember 5 months ago,
when on a rainy Saturday afternoon,
Carrleigh had eight "sweet babes".
This is what Arlo looked like then.

And here he is today -
with his new big boy haircut!!

Happy 5 month birthday to
Jazzi, Sophie, Stirling,
Todd, Liam, McIntyre, Parker and Arlo.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

FALL IS FALLING......

2011-09-08T09:31:00.007-04:00

So many signs around us
point to Fall being in the air.

Beautiful intricate spider webs.

Sometimes,
they even have spiders in them!!

Snakes changing their clothing
for larger sizes.

Us, having to wear our raincoats
to go for our walkies
because of the Fall hurricane season.

and

guess

what

we

didn't

see,

but Mom saw him

and she cleverly steered us away.
(this picture is from google)
As we were walking one day this week,
in the rain,
Mom saw a six-foot long black snake
start to cross our road -
she averted a scary situation
by directing our attention elsewhere
so that he could cross in peace.

WHEW!!

XOXO,
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

PIPER'S PUPPIES PARADE PROUDLY

2011-09-01T07:42:00.004-04:00

Say that fast three times
while you look at these cuties!!

You might remember
back in the Winter,
our man, Piper,
got a bit worn out
from visiting with the ladies.

Not only did he have Carrleigh
here at home,
but he visited two other ladies.

And one of the ladies, Miss DeDe,
had three cute little puppies.

Blondie
(who do you think she took after?)

Helen
(who stands still for no camera)

Dapper Dan

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

OUR THOUGHTS THIS MORNING...

2011-08-27T07:35:00.003-04:00

This morning our thoughts
are with our friends and furiends
who live in the path of
Hurricane Irene.
Please take the precautions
that the local authorities
advise.

We know
Becky and Gussie
have had to evacuate their home
and our thoughts and prayers
are with them.

If your peeps have any questions
regarding helping your pet
through a storm,
the ASPCA
offers some guidelines.

Please stay safe and use good judgement.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

YOU ASK, WE DELIVER ..... ALMOST.....

2011-08-25T12:10:00.003-04:00

Mom is so proud of "her"
Morning Glories.
They greet her every morning
with new blooms -
but if the truth were told,
without Dad's conscientious watering,
there would be no
vines or flowers.

Some of you wanted to see an updated
picture of
Miss Ivy.

It' s almost impossible to catch her
being still -
here she is in her energetic glory -
all 35 pounds!!

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

YES, VIRGINIA, THERE WAS AN EARTHQUAKE

2011-08-24T07:48:00.004-04:00

Many of you have asked us
if we felt the earth shake
beneath our paws yesterday.

Virginia had a 5.9 earthquake
in Giles county.
If you look at the pink circle on the map
you will see our county, Carroll,
is at the bottom
of the circle.

We did feel a bit of shaking,
but Mom,
having lived in
the Philippine Islands,
Japan
and
Southern California,
just said,
"we're having an earthquake"
and went on about her business.

We were just as snug as puppies
in a box.

Ivy went to the Vet for her checkup.
She is still growing like a bad weed -
and weighs 35 pounds now!!

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

PUPDATE ON BAILEY

2011-08-23T10:23:00.003-04:00

If you've been following us for a couple of years,
you might remember Bailey
from Carrleigh's litter of nine puppies.

He went to Eastern Virginia
to live with his big brother, Mackie.
We got a much coveted pupdate
from Bailey Sweet this weekend!!

See what handsome lads they are!!

We know they must
"rule the roost".
They even sleep with their peeps.

But Bailey doesn't like to ride
in the car so he sits facing backward
until they get to their destination.
That's much better than getting carsick,
don't you think?

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

PSA - COUNTERFEIT FRONTLINE - BEWARE

2011-08-18T05:39:00.000-04:00

We have been alerted by our local humane society
that there is counterfeit Frontline
being sold in some places.
Please have your peeps read the article
and be careful what they purchase for you.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

IT'S OUR TURN NOW....

2011-08-17T06:33:00.002-04:00

You know how we are always
begging you to vote for our
furiends who have entered contest

*

*

*

w-e-l-l
*

*

our Mom entered us in one now.
If you're on Facebook,
would you please go
to our Vet
and like our photo.
You might have to like
Foothills and Carroll Vets first
before you can like us,
but that's all it takes.

The photo with the most "likes" wins
a 6 months supply of parasite control -
and you know how much that could
help out with a pack as large as ours.

THANKS EVER SO MUCH!!

XOXO,
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

GROWING LIKE A BAD WEED!!

2011-08-16T08:28:00.002-04:00

When you first saw our little Iverness,
she was about 5 weeks old.
Now she is almost 4 months old
and is growing like a bad weed -
we call her
"Poison Ivy".

The little smirker weighed 26 pounds
at her last Vet visit
and is faster
than a speeding Scottie.

She's got a lot to learn,
but we're trying to teach her.

XOXO
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT MIGHT SHOW UP HERE

2011-08-15T11:52:00.007-04:00

We're back!!

Saturday,
our Peeps got up early,
had breakfast,
walked us
and were out the door.

They went to a dog show -
without us,
can you believe that?

But,
our boy,
Rocky Creek Bag Piper's Arlo
was participating
in his first puppy show -
doesn't he look like a cutie
lined up with all the other terriers?

He even let the judge
check out his little teeth!!

And got his first puppy ribbon -
this is a new class to introduce
4 - 6 month old puppies
to the world of dog shows.
Arlo got a ribbon for
Best of Breed.

Along the way,
he made a new furiend.
For all of you folks that think
Westies and Wheaten Scotties
look alike,
here you can easily see the difference.

Our Mom got to meet a blogging buddy too -
the Tennessee Bull Terrors,
Mom, Angie, came up and asked
Mom if she was our Mom.
She loves meeting other bloggers!!

Good looks seems to run in Arlo's family.

This is his 18 month old brother -
Murphy Rushlow.

And his 3 year old 1/2 brother, Obie Trevino.

And to top things off,
our Sissy has been visiting
with us.
She was only able to spend a week
before going back.
We miss her.

XOXO,
The Rocky Creek Scotties and Ivy

YOU KNOW HOW WE LOVE...

2011-08-11T12:49:00.004-04:00

...to see one of our furiends
win a contest.

We just had to sneak back in
from our vacation
to let you know that
Miss Maggie
is in a contest.
If you click on her picture,
it will take you there.
Once you register,
be patient,
it might take an hour or so
before you can vote
and then you can vote daily.

We don't know what she might win,
but she looks great winning it!!

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh Ruairi and Ivy
(we're going back on vacay now)

THE ROCKY CREEK SCOTTIES AND IVY

2011-08-02T13:57:00.001-04:00

we are on vacation
for a couple of weeks,
but we'll be back.

We hope you don't forget us.

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh, Ruairi and Ivy

Generally,
we have to go
to the top of the hill
to get our mail,
but occasionally
the mail-man
comes to our house-
and when he does,
it's usually something special.

Last week,
Dad heard him outside
and went out and checked.
When he came back in,
he said,
"Do the Rocky Creek Scotties
know anyone in the UK?"

We just had to snicker --
the Rocky Creek Scotties
know dogs on most all continents!!
Dad is way behind the times.

We must say,
Dad was most impressed
that the Queen traveled all the way
across the Atlantic to visit us.

But our special furiends,
Sally and Paddy,
had sponsored a contest
when William and Catherine
got married
and we were one of the lucky winners.
And the ironic thing is
that about 15 minutes
after our package arrived,
we saw on the news that
William and Kate
had arrived in the US.

Mom is really enjoying
using her new mug
and dessert plate -
she thinks it's just perfect for breakfast.

Check out this great commemorative bag -
won't it be great for carrying home
some good treats!

But this is Mom's favorite -

A Peter Clark Scottee tea towel -
check out the pattern, it's maps
and our Dad is a Geography teacher
so that makes it doubly special.
Mom wants to have a tray made
with a glass insert
so she can put the towel under the glass.

Thank you, thank you, thank you,
Sally, Paddy and your Peeps.

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh, Ruairi, Ivy
and
their Peeps

WHAT'S GOING ON WITH ARLO?

2011-07-05T06:32:00.003-04:00

The last time you saw Arlo,
he had just arrived
for his vacation
at
Rocky Creek Farm
and was enjoying
the good life.

Well,
yesterday,
we
heard
our
Mom,
teaching this tender young man
how to stand
whilst being stripped.

Doesn't she know
stripping is illegal in Virginia?

We hope his Mother
doesn't press charges
because we can't reach the
jar where she keeps the treats.

BOL!!

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh, Ruairi,
Ivy
and
Arlo

Happy Independence Day
to you
and
all of your peeps.

We hope you get
some wonderful foodables
and
don't forget the watermelon.

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh, Ruairi,
Ivy
and
Arlo

Yesterday,
we met a new
Scottie Pal.

His name is Boomer
and he's just a young highlander.
We hope you'll go by
