Diba & Banu

Tell me a little bit about yourself.
We are two sisters, we are scottish deerhounds
we were in a litter of 4 bitches and were born in Ireland on 10 nov 2011
1 sister is still in Ireland and had puppy's last year. 1 sister moved to England
we flew from Dublin to Frankfurt in february 2012 and stayed overnight and then we flew to Amsterdam
We now live in Lisse , the city known for its flowerbulbs. Many tourist from Japan visit The Keukenhof Flowergarden and if they see us they want to take picture with us because we are so tall (we say they are so little)
We are sisters but humans say we are very different characters.
Banu: very relaxed, likes little children and litte dogs (see the picture with dachshund) and lives for eat-walk-cuddle
Diba: very active, likes only big dogs (has Rottweiler-friends and St Bernarddog-friends), can't be bribed for food, only walks for P&P and mischief
One of the pictures is that Diba runs over Banu. That happened with coursing. Diba's hind legs hooked around Banu and Banu fell head over heels and hurt herself. First couple of days it seems OK but then Banu got a real bad pain in her neck and it took 3 vets (who didn’t know what to do) and finally a good chiropractor who helped. (All and all 10months)
Banu is great now and she growls with pleasure when rolling over in her sleep and not having any pain anymore.

How many humans/siblings do you have and long have you had them?
We have 2 humans, one works whole week (insurancemanager) and one is with us every day (no not the female)

If you could choose your name what would it be?
We don't want to change our names if we could choose. We think we have wonderful names !
Humans gave us beautiful names, also on our pedigree: Wonderful Diba and Wunderful Banu (it had to begin with 'W' )
Diba means princess or diva and Banu means beautiful face or beautiful appearance

What is your favourite food?
Our favorite food is pancake and cheese and Ammy's Delight treats

Where is your favourite place to be?
Our favorite place to be is on the big (human) bed or stretched out on the couch

What is your favourite way to entertain yourself (annoy your humans)?
Our favorite entertainment is running very fast in the meadows , most of the time together because our furpals can't run that fast. We have some great Deerhound friends with who we can run fast, but they don't live nearby.

What is your greatest accomplishment?
We also like to visit "grandma" in the nursing home, she and the other old people like us very much and pet us. We like to get petted by them and sometimes we give them sloppy kisses .

If you could be/do anything for a day, what would it be?
Diba wantsto change her paws for hands for a day, because with hands she can operate the tap (loves to drink tapwater) and other human-stuff like kitchen-drawers and doorhandles, (its so difficult to open doors with your paws)
Banu : wants for a day "All you can eat buffet" without getting fat

Finally and most importantly...What was your human’s most embarrassing moment?
What can we tell you about our human(s) most embarrassing moment? So many to choose from 
1) when they picked us up from the airport in 2012 , they forgot to walk us first and they put us right away in the back of the car to go home. We were so scared and nervous that we pooped in the whole of the back of the car. It smelled so bad !!!! 
2) the first winter in Holland we had real snow, that was fun. But also slippery . When female human walked us together we pulled her hard to a smelly place and Oooops she felt on her butt and we dragged her couple of meters, but still managed to hold on to us.


Here is a picture of us chilling out on the bed.                                        Just to give you an idea of our size here is Banu on the couch.
