Amber, Bamber, Bambi, Bambalooface, That’s Silly!

Posted by on June 15, 2011

We’ve been waiting for our dog, my dog, Amber, aka Bamber, Bambi, Bambalooface, to welp.  She started today ’round eleven this morning. 

Earlier this week she let it be known that she didn’t like a plain box with a towel so I gave her one of my long pillows, I was tired of them and ready to toss it out when she was done.

We set her up in the kitchen as soon as it was blatantly obvious that she insisted on having company. 

See?  Isn’t that a lovely box to have pups in? 

Well yes, one would think so.  At twelve thirty she begged me to let her outside, I thought she needed to go potty, in the house she barely let me out of her sight so I knew she wouldn’t run off outside.  I opened the door and there she went, no hesitation, no looking back when I called, straight under the famous porch of the FiberHouse to have her pups.

Now that is just plain silly. 

Bet and I tried to figure out how to get her out when it was clear she wasn’t to be called out, coaxed out or bribed out.  Once we figured that we had to go in after her it only took about ten minutes for us to tear out a couple of boards, yep you can see our tools, the screwdriver was a waste of time since the screws were far to rusted, digging out wasn’t working but the shovel was employed with the lug wrench to pry up the porch floor boards.

It only took about thirty minutes after we got her out from under the porch and settled back in the kitchen for the first pup to come along. 

Well I can’t stick around and talk much, got some work to do and other to catch up on.  This was a totally unexpected twist from what I had planned on doing for Tom’s pick of a theme: That’s Silly.  Go see what everyone else has. You know the drill, they are all on the side board clear over to the right. 

And have an exciting day where you live.

    CONGRATULATIONS ON THE PUPS! You most definitely are busy being the demolition derby and the maternity ward. Women do silly things at times like these–even the 4-legged ones!

    Puppies!! So cute! What a little rat trying to hide from you..instincts are so inbreed in dogs. I am so glad you rescued her from herself. I hope you got more than one pup..and that they are all healthy! :)

    How sweet (and silly!) I would love to see Bet’s new kitten too.

    Funny how cats come to life about the time the rest of us want to sleep! Get kitty a tiny little basket and see if she will crawl up in it. Best wishes with all the pets.

    Love to you and Bet.

    Aw…very sweet. Lanny and Bet to the rescue. It really was a lovely box you prepared. Silly dog.

    Look! She had a Hampshire pig.
    We’re welping here too. “Welp, I gotta go clean the chicken pen..” seriously, the auto waterer went haywire (or chickenwire) and flooded the shed.
    Flood waters are holding steady here. House not threatened… yet.
    Thanks for your concern, I do appreciate it.

    Oh I yearn for a puppy – a wonderful rat terrier puppy from one of your beautiful dogs – even silly dogs who think underneath and dark is better than in the house and comfy! Great post and always enjoy hearing the nonstop activities of Vicktory Farm!
