We are officially up for adoption!

Sage and I have had it. We are officially putting ourselves up for adoption. Today was the final straw. Look what they did to us! They thought it was funny. I cannot believe the indignity. If anyone is willing to give us a good home please let us know.

Something Strange is going on.

So, something strange is going on. My mom is actually home sometimes. I heard her and dad saying something about school. Me and Sage are not sure what is going on but we sure are glad that she is home more now. We missed her!

I hate the cold

I know that most people think that dogs like the winter. They think that just because we have fur that we don't get cold. Well I have news for you people, I get cold! I have hardly any fat and very short fur. I was made for basking in the sun, not for freezing cold. Lucky for me I have a very furry brother who usually lets me lean on him for heat. I also have these things in the floor that occasionally blow hot air. I'm not sure why they do this but I think they do it so I can lay on them. The best thing I have though is my mom. She hates the cold too so every night she puts a blanket and socks in the dryer so she can pull them out right before bed and run to bed with them so she stays warms. She puts a sweatshirt in there for me too, then she wraps me up tight so I stay warm. I sure do love her.

We're Sorry

We wanted to apologize for not posting lately. Mom and Dad have been really busy, especially Mom. She has been working lots of hours at the new job and then going straight to school. Some days we see her for a while in the morning and then she leaves and we don't see her again until long after it is dark outside. Dad won't let us use the computer so we have to wait until Mom is home so she will let us post. Mom says she will try and let us post some pictures this weekend. Sage wants to tell everyone the story about how spoiled he is and his sweatshirt and Marley wants to tell some stories too.

Marley and Sage

Bad Dog- Marley

So I was naughty today and Mom is pretty mad. She bought a cheeseball and she was eating it with some wheat thins while she tried to do laundry, homework, and bake a cheesecake. I was really hungry and I kept trying to tell her I wanted some of that cheeseball. I kept sneaking into the kitchen and sniffing but she kept telling me to get out of her kitchen! I really wanted her to know that I wanted some cheeseball so I kept it up. Then one of Mom's classmates called her and she had to go look something up on the computer. I knew I had to act fast because if I didn't she might eat all of that cheeseball before I even got a taste! Sage went with Mom into the computer room (he told me he was going to check if Mom hid any food in there). So while she was gone I snuck in there and stole half that cheeseball right off the plate. It was so good. Unfortunately Mom knew it was me because Sage was with her and I was still licking my chops when she came back. She was mad at me so I made my best "I'm Sorry" face and went and layed down. She is hoping Dad doesn't decide to read the blog because then he'll know what I did and he'll be really mad at me! She was so mean, she told me that she wouldn't feel sorry for me when my belly hurts later. How rude!

We heard we are pretty funny

We heard that you all think we are pretty funny. Here is what we did when Mom told us. In case you can't tell, this is us laughing.

An Introduction: Marley

I am Marley, an almost five-year-old purebred German Shepherd Dog. I moved to my current home when I was only 7 weeks old. I have a pretty great life. I enjoy hiking, camping, swimming, sleeping, slobbering, shedding, playing, fetching (when I feel like it) and eating. My favorite past time is convincing visitors to our house, strangers, and anyone I run into walking down the street that I am completely attention starved. I do this by giving sad eyes, placing my head in people's laps, rubbing up against people's legs and pouting. For the most part it works but sometimes I worry that my mom is on to me. I am a fierce protector and I let my family know if anything and I mean anything comes into my yard, or close to my yard, or even considers walking by my yard. I have just about perfected the poor me pose-see picture. I will be blogging about life and any adventures I manage to get into. Oh yeah and I have a brother.

An Introduction: Sage

My name is Windy Ridge's Sagen Sunset but you can just call me Sage. I am a 3.5 year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback. I am a very handsome boy. I traveled a long way to get to my house when I was only 8 weeks old. It involved lots of driving and riding in an airplane. My hobbies are eating, looking for food, sleeping, checking the counters for any food that might have once been there, playing, eating, sleeping, dreaming about food, sniffing for food, checking pockets for food, eating, begging for food, and I also like camping, hiking, and that stuff as long as Mom remembers to pack my food. If anyone reads this can you please let my Mom and Dad know that I am starving? They seem to think that I need to be kept at a "healthy weight". Trust me, I am starving! Can you tell them, please?

I am pretty particular about my sleeping arrangements. I refuse to lay on a bare floor. I need a bed, or a blanket, or lately dad's work clothes have provided some great cushioning. This morning Dad had to go to work early and Mom let me and Marley up in bed with her (that almost never happens). I think I will try to convince her that my dog bed isn't cutting it. Maybe she'll buy me my own queen size bed?

Mom was taking pictures of me sleeping last night, she thought it was cute that I curled up on a pile of dad's dirty work clothes but it shows my nice ridge.

Christmas Lists

Just in case anyone decides to read this we thought we should post our Christmas lists.
Marley- big chewy bone, new food bowl, treats, and a new fetching toy.
Sage- Food, a new food bowl, a new bed (queen size please), food, treats, edible chewing bone.

This is a great video to show you all how handsome we are. All Dad has to do is talk to us and we get excited.
