We're Twoodles!

As we are Poodles and as the Twitter naming trend is to prefix 'Tw' to a word, then surely tweeting Poodles would be Twoodles? Twoodles of the world, unite!

Short clip of Babette planting herself

Babette is so funny!

Trying to grow a Poodle

My big sister is a funny one. When we went to the beach this afternoon she showed me how to plant a Poodle. It's quite easy really. Dig in softish sand a bit and when it looks deep enough, stick your face in so your ears lie flat on either side. Keep like that for as long as you can and then jump up and run like the wind. I'm not sure how the running bit helps but I tried this today for the first time ever and whilst I'm a bit sceptical about the 'growing a Poodle' thing, it's great fun! I'll post a video for you to see me enjoying a dig.

Meet the family: Tabby

OK, she's most definitely not canine but again, we share the same human mom and dad so I guess this makes her my older sister? This is Tabby, a 20 year old feline. This is an old photo because I can Poodle-count 4 paws and she currently only has 3. You see, she was shot in one of her hind legs by some hooligan children, about 2 years ago. The animal doctors did try their best to save her leg but it had to be amputated.

She may have 3 legs and she may be 20, but boy - can she jump, run, catch and give me a run for my Poodle-money when I rag her!

Meet the family: Charlie

This is my Charlie. Despite being a lot smaller than me and not looking much like a Poodle shape-wise, he's my older brother as we both share the same human mom and dad. How confusing to all these family relationships get?

Anycase, Charlie is an old, old boy, 18 human years I believe. He's blind in one eye, a tad overweight and a real grump at the best of times. Charlie is human daddy's boy. I like to tease Charlie by jumping close to him and nipping him on the neck. It drives him crazy and occasionally he moves fast enough to nip me or get a toothless mouthful of my Poodle-fur!

Charlie has his own 3 seater couch to lie on. What a lucky thing he is.

Material Girl

OK, so Mia managed to post a photo of me just after my bath - how embarrassing! I shall get Poodle-vengeance of this photo of her sleeping wrapped up in curtains. Ha!

Babette

Smile Babette, You're on Candid Camera!

I rarely get to post on OUR blog, so I'll make up for lost time by posting this photo of my sister while she's having her hair done. She will kill me when she finds out I've put this on the net because she's very particular about how she looks, being an ex model.

My baby sister

Mia is a small giant Poodle (there is nothing 'standard' about us, thanks) and she just LOVES her cuddly toys.

Mia's human took this photo last night.

Meet our brother!

This is Babalou, our handsome brother. Babalou and I were born together although I don't know who is the oldest between us. Mia has never met him even though he's her half-brother. I think a family meeting would be in order one day soon!

Babalou is a very well groomed boy because he goes to lots of events and shows.

Working the camera

In my youth I did some film and magazine work. In fact, I could do it more regularly but that means maintaining full on pompom mode just in case I'm needed in front of the camera.

These days, with my 'do' in rough 'n ready mode my humans take advantage of any photo op I offer them. This photo was taken yesterday. I really gave it my best malt-flavour doggie toothpaste smile, don't you think?
