Day Care
November 4th 2008 10:04 am

Mom says I’m going to start going to daycare (yes, they do have daycare for us pups)! Day care is soo fun, lots of pups to play with and swimming too! An indoor heated pool for dogs. How spoiled is that?? Mom thinks it will be good for me to socialize with other dogs during the day and she knows I’ll be safe there too. She’ll drop me off when she heads to work and pick me up when she gets off. Not a bad deal if I do say so myself. I’m visiting today and plan on officially starting tomorrow. Sweet!!

Boring
November 13th 2008 6:51 pm

My life has been pretty boring lately. The most excitement that I’ve had is chasing my kitty brother. He’s a pissy ol’ thing. Likes to yeow and smack at me. That sounds like an invitation to play to me… I’m sure this isn’t what he has in mind, but that’s his problem. It entertains me for a brief time chasing him around the house and practicing my BIG DOG bark at him. Mom thinks it’s funny and says as long as I don’t hurt the kitty I can have all the fun I want with him.

It Snowed! (sort of)
November 20th 2008 9:33 pm

Yes… it did snow yesterday. Inside my home at that! Well…. it wasn’t real snow, but it sure looked like it inside my crate. Sadly, my pretty little holiday decorated bed is no more. It’s flat, completely de-stuffed. So is my funky monkey toy. De-stuffed, de-squeakered and monkey is now missing one leg. Hey! It gets boring in my crate, a fella has to entertain himself somehow!

Proof of prior bed de-stuffing. Ty & Annie caught me with the evidence

Today is my BIRTHDAY!!!
November 22nd 2008 2:13 pm

Yup, ya got it right… today is my birthday! Time to pawty!! I’m one year old today. Mom says it’s really hard to believe. She remembers when I was a tiny ball of fluff. Mom forgot to get me something special when she was out earlier today, but I think I’ve made her feel bad for letting my birthday slip her mind. She mentioned that she needs to go back to the feed store to pick up some things she forgot earlier. I bet that’s gonna be my birthday gift. Maybe a new stuffie toy? Or some big bone for me to chew on? I think I’ll lay here for a while and think about what I’d like to have. Maybe those thought will float through the air and get into mom’s head.
My gifts

I was right… Mom did go back out Saturday afternoon to buy me a birthday gift. I got a new stuffed squeaky toy! It looks like a cross between a rabbit and a fox. It’s soooo coool! Then she got some Greenies & duck jerky (I’m sure I’ll have to share those). Not too bad for a first birthday!

What’s This?!
November 28th 2008 5:37 pm

I come inside from playing this afternoon and WHAT’S THIS?? A tree in my living room? I’ve never seen such a thing. Mom says it’s because this will be my first Christmas with a family. What’s Christmas??

What’s this? What’s this?
There’s color everywhere
What’s this?
There’s white things in the air
What’s this?
I can’t believe my eyes
I must be dreaming
Wake up, Jack, this isn’t fair
What’s this?

What’s this? What’s this?
There’s something very wrong
What’s this? What’s this?
There are people singing songs

In here they’ve got a little tree, how queer
And who would ever think
And why?

They’re covering it with tiny little things
They’ve got electric lights on strings
And there’s a smile on everyone
So, now, correct me if I’m wrong
This looks like fun
This looks like fun
Oh, could it be I got my wish?
What’s this?

The sights, the sounds
They’re everywhere and all around
I’ve never felt so good before
This empty place inside of me is filling up
I simply cannot get enough

I want it, oh, I want it
Oh, I want it for my own
I’ve got to know
I’ve got to know
What is this place that I have found?
What is this?
… Christmas Town, hmm.

What’s This? — Part II
November 30th 2008 9:05 pm

What’s this?? I’m sleeping peacefully in the couch, all snuggled up against mom, and then it happened.

“I get a strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it’s a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.”

A bright light flashed outside. And then a long, low rumble followed. Must be some strange magic going on. Thunder? How can that be?? It’s almost the first of December!! Hrummpfff… strange magic….
