Day with Terry!

Yesterday I had a big day with Terry! Mommy and Daddy had to go do lots of stuff yesterday and they were gone all day so Terry was the puppy sitter! And Ursula lets my foster brother Remington play with me now, so that was lots of fun, too! I got to climb right on top of him and play! Ursula watches though to make sure that I'm ok! I think that maybe Remington is Ursula's boyfriend! They go all over together and even lay together a lot...with their head's touching and everything! I think it's good because Ursula is the bestest big sister and Remington is a really nice and good boy!

Today Mommy and Daddy were both home with me all day long! That hardly ever happens, so it was extra special for me! Mommy and Daddy and Terry took us all for a big walk today after it cooled down some. My foster sister Gladys has to be on a leash when we go for walks because even though we're in our own yard she gets sniffing and loses her hearing. She does good on the leash though and really likes my Daddy! She goes by him a lot.

Otherwise we didn't really do much today because it was so hot out so we stayed in the house in the cool. Tomorrow Daddy and Terry are leaving early because we're getting the pool table from Grandma and Grandpa. I guess some special mover people are going to move it, but Daddy wants to be there when they get there. Then tomorrow Daddy and Terry have to go to my big people brother Tyler's college to give him an air conditioner so he's not so hot in his room. That means I won't get to see Daddy and Terry too much tomorrow, but I'll have lots of special time with my Mommy! That's good because Mommy smiles a lot when she's with me!

Well, I'd better go. Mommy is going to sit in her recliner and finish reading her book so I can have some cuddle time! Good Night Everyone!

Baths

Today was a very hot day so we didn't spend lots of time playing outside. But, Mommy and my big people sister Brooke gave all of us doggies a bath outside with the hose. I didn't like that too much! I got all wet! Ursula had to have two baths because she rolled in the dirt when she was done and Mommy washed her again!

Ursula let my foster brother Remington play with me today! She usually doesn't let Remington play with me but today she did, she just watched him close! We had fun playing and he played really nice with me! Ursula didn't have to worry, but she does anyway because she loves me!

Nothing else really happened today because it was so hot outside. Sorry for such a short blog today, but I really don't have anything to talk about!

Not much today

Hi Everyone! Not much went on today. I played outside ALOT today and I took a big nap in the big bed with my Mommy! Daddy was home ALL DAY and that was so awesome! I even got to play with my new foster brother, Remington! Ursula let him play with me! Ursula takes good care of me and loves me a lot! She is my very best doggie friend and sister!

We went for a big walk this morning in the woods with Mommy and Daddy! That was fun! When I got tired my Daddy carried me! I was pretty excited about that because it's usually Mommy. There was lots of cool smells out there again! Mommy says that it's deer and raccoons and bunnies and stuff! I have the best backyard!

I found a cool new toy! It's a water bottle! They make really awesome sounds when you chew on it! I have one all smushed down and I did it all by myself!

Well, I'm gonna go. I did lots of playing and running today and I'm pretty tired! Good Night Everyone!

YIPEE!

I'm SO happy! My Daddy will be home soon! He's been gone all week and I miss him! And the best part is, he'll be on vacation, so he'll be home all week with me! I love when my Daddy is home! He is so much fun and he loves me big bunches!

I am getting to be such a big boy! I got on the couch all by myself today! I knew it was something cool because when I made it up there, I wiggled ALL over! I even had a toy in my mouth! (It was my rubber chicken! I love that toy!)

Other than that, today has been same old same old! Just play play play, run run run, eat eat eat and nap nap nap! I'm thinking I'd better get a quick nap in before Daddy gets home so I can see him tonight! Good Nite Everyone!

Monk the Porker

Today was a good day! I got to play outside lots again because Terry and Mommy are cleaning the garage and stuff because they are getting a pool table from Grandma and Grandpa! I had so much fun playing outside in the grass! I chased grasshoppers and butterflies!

Mommy said I'm getting chunky! She said she can't figure out how because all I do is run run run! She said I should be a bean pole, not a porker! But I'm so happy anyway! I have the bestest family and they love me SO much!

Today my Mommy was very proud of my big doggie sister Ursula! Ursula didn't like my new foster brother Remington, but today she played really big with him! They ran all over the yard and jumped together and everything! And Remington tired Ursula out! Ursula doesn't like my foster brother and sister to go by me, though. She says I'm HER baby puppy. Mommy said they can go by me if they want to, but she's happy because she figures Ursula would protect me if I needed it.

Mommy said in the next few days she won't be as busy as she had been, so she'll have more time to take new pictures of me! Then everyone can see what a porker I am!

Well, I'm going to go because I'm so tired from all the playing outside I did! Good Night Everyone!

A Great Day!

Today was a really good day! I played outside a lot today and Mommy took a nap with me! That always makes it a good day!

But, Mommy and Terry took me for a big bye-bye today! We went to pick up my new foster sister. She is a Black and Tan Coonhound. She didn't have a name, so Mommy started calling her Gladys. And when we went to pick her up from Aunt Angie (she's who Mommy got me from!), Aunt Angie had a German Shepard boy named Remington that needed a foster home, too! So, Mommy brought him home because Terry LOVES German Shepards! So I have a foster brother, too! I guess "foster" means that they won't live here all the time like I do, but they only live here until they find good forever homes. I think Terry wants to keep Remington, though! Remington seems to think he is Terry's doggie! He follows Terry everywhere, except down the basement stairs. He doesn't seem to like those. My big doggie sister likes Remington, too! I think it's her boyfriend! Everyone likes Gladys because she's such a nice girl! The only bad thing about today was that I didn't get to visit with Aunt Angie. She was in the car with all the other doggies that she saved from the shelter they were at. If she didn't save them today, they would've had to go to the Rainbow Bridge, and that wouldn't have been good! She brought lots of doggies and some have to go to a doggie boarder, so if anyone can give her a donation, remember you can always go to www.waggsandwishes.org to do that!

We just went for a BIG walk with my new foster brother and sister! We went all the way to the back field and all the way around it and back! Mommy had to carry me some of the time because it's a long way. Remington and Gladys had to be on leashes, but they did ok. They liked all the good smells in our big yard!

Well, I think I'm gonna go because I'm really tired from my big day today! Good Night Everyone!

Visit with Dr. Mark

Hi Everyone! I went to see Dr. Mark today! I got two shots. That was yucky. But seeing everyone there was fun! I love to visit! I got weighed when I was there. Remember when my Mommy first brought me home when I was 7 weeks old, and I weighed 4.2 lbs? Then two weeks later when I was 9 weeks old I weighed 7.2 lbs...almost double! Now it's three weeks later and I'm 12 weeks old and I weigh 14 and a half lbs! All the way double this time! I'm such a big boy! And Dr. Mark says I must be a good eater, too! That's for sure! And Dr. Mark said I'm big enough now to have the surgery to remove my boo-boo leg. Mommy set that up for September 15th. That's in just three weeks! It's kinda scary, but Mommy said I'll be just fine.

Today I had fun playing in the yard! I like to chase butterflies and moths, but today there was a big butterfly. I stalked it for a while because it was sitting on my favorite yellow plastic golf ball, but I didn't know if I should get too close to it because it was way bigger than the other butterflies. Mommy said it was a Monarch butterfly. I decided to leave it alone.

My big doggie sister Natasha played with me so much this morning! It was lots of fun! She laid down on the ground and played with me just like Ursula does! This was the first time Natasha played with me like that and I was so happy!

Well, I'd better go. I'm pretty sleepy from the big car ride and visiting at Dr. Mark's and I think I want to take a nap! Have a great day everyone!

Long day

It was a long day today. Mommy has a stuffy head and she was doing all that canning stuff again. But Mommy did take time to cuddle and play with me! Ursula played with me a lot, and I like to play with my toys quietly by myself sometimes, too! And sometimes I like to just sit on the deck and look out at my yard. Sometimes quiet time is good!

I'm sad because my Daddy went away today for his work. He's going to be gone the whole week, and I'll miss him! I love my Daddy, even if he picks on me. Last night I was trying to make nite-nite on the couch and he kept playing with the hair on my ears. Mommy told me to go ahead and bite his fingers off because she would laugh really hard at that, but I don't want to bite my Daddy's fingers off because then he wouldn't be able to sneak me yummy stuff! He picks on all the doggies here, but I just think that means he loves us! Mommy said it just means he's asking for his fingers to be bitten off!

Uh-Oh. I better go now. Mommy just noticed that I made a poo-poo on the doggie bed! I'm gonna hurry up and make nite-nite and pretend I don't know she saw it! Good night everyone!

early today

Hi! I'm posting now because Mommy is taking a break from all the stuff she's doing. I guess it's called "canning". I really don't care because she said it's not for me anyway. And, tonight my big people brother Terry is coming home and Daddy will be home early from work, so I'll be really busy playing with them later and might not have time to post before I make nite-nite.

Know what I did? I took a nap in my crate ALL BY MYSELF! Mommy said that was a good place for me to take a nap. I didn't know I could hang out in there without the door shut! Sometimes I sneak in there to take a drink from my water bottle. It's fun to drink from that because it's drippy when I lick it! It's not as fun as licking the rain off of stuff outside, though!

Yesterday I had to be in my crate for a while because Mommy had to do some stuff with my big people sister Brooke. When she got home I was SO happy to see her because I had to make pee-pee really bad! Mommy carried me outside, but I dribbled all over her and she had to change her clothes! Sorry Mommy! Mommy said I'm getting so big that she might not be able to carry me outside much longer. Sometimes she makes me run to the door, but if I have to go really bad she carries me.

I can almost get on the couch all by myself now! Then my big doggie brother Boz will only have Mommy's bed to hide in! Pretty soon Mommy said! I try to run and jump on there but I only get my front leg up on the couch but it's getting close!

Well, Mommy said she has to get back to her tomatoes, so I'd better get off of the computer. Bye Bye everyone!

Rainy day

Today was a rainy day, so we didn't spend lots of time outside. Tonight Mommy was milking PopTart and there was a big noise and I ran all the way to the back door! Mommy said it was just thunder dunders and not to worry about it. Mommy says she loves thunder dunders!

Mommy said I was full of pee-pee and vinegar again today, whatever that means. I know she had Boz go in her bed because I wanted to play with him SO BAD and he just wanted to take a nap. And I had lots of fun getting into lots of stuff today! Mommy wasn't happy when she saw me with her shoe. And Mommy was very busy cleaning today so she didn't have as much time to play with me. And I didn't take many big naps either!

Mommy was happy because today she was sitting on the step and I climbed onto her lap just to sit with her! Mommy says she likes when I do that. Usually when we have cuddle time I just lay on the recliner by her legs. I don't do big cuddling when I'm sleeping, but I like to when I'm awake!

Daddy came home early again today! I was SO excited to see him! He is the best Daddy! Except he doesn't want me to chew on his face and his armpits anymore. I wonder why! But Daddy does like to play toys with me, and that's lots of fun!

Well, Mommy said I have to get off the computer now. Good night everyone!

Lazy days

It was a pretty lazy day today! Mommy took a nap with me, and we sat outside a lot! Well, I guess it wasn't all that lazy when we were outside because I played in the sand and in the grass and with toys and Ursula! That is always fun!

Daddy came home early from work today! It was even not dark out! I was so happy to see him. Mommy was, too, until she saw he went to the big store by himself. Mommy said it's called Costco and that Daddy isn't supposed to go there by himself! She said lots of bad words, but nobody will ever know because I won't tell! Mommy said she doesn't know what she's going to do with 36 cans of Spam! But Daddy did bring home a big watermelon! I LOVE watermelon, and Mommy says it's a healthy snack for me! That's good because I want to be healthy and grow up to be a big boy like my brother Boz!

Mommy said we have to go see Dr. Mark next week for a shot or something, and they're going to talk about my boo-boo leg. Mommy said it's growing and getting long and it just hangs there and is starting to get in my way a little bit already. It's kinda scary to think about Dr. Mark cutting it off, but Mommy said I'll be making big nite-nite and won't even feel it. And I'll get some stuff after so I don't hurt. And I know my Mommy will take good care of me, so I'll be ok. And I'll get around better without that dumb leg hanging there.

Well, I'd better go. Mommy wants to watch tv so that means it's cuddle time! Good Nite everyone!

Back online!

Hi Everyone! Mommy got her new modem today so we're back online and she doesn't have to sneak me into places anymore so I can write! She's very happy about that! So am I because I don't like being stuffed into Mommy's purse...especially in a place like Big Boy where there's all kinds of food and I can't sit at the table and eat!

Mommy said I'm growing up because I'm sleeping all night now and I don't take as much naps during the day. I sure do play alot! I love to run, run, run! And Ursula started to play tug with me, and that's lots of fun! She's big though, and pulls me around. Mommy is trying to get video of it, but it hasn't turned out good.

Mommy says I'm growing up because I'm getting my boy thingies too! She said I better not get used to them, though. Mommy said they're coming off. That must be why my big brother Boz doesn't have any boy thingies. So I guess that's ok because I love Boz. He's a big cool guy, and I want to be just like him! Boz likes me more all the time, too! Today he was sleeping in the dining room and I laid right on him and tried to go to sleep and he let me! Mommy wanted to take a picture but she was on the phone with the "stupid tech support" people. That's not all she said, but remember, I don't tell on her when she says bad words so nobody will know!

Well, Mommy said I have to get off the computer because she has lots to do because she didn't have internet for a few days. I'm gonna go see if anyone left anything in their dishes after dinner! Bye-Bye!

Mommy snuck me into Big Boy!

Mommy said the internet is still not working at home, so Mommy and Terry had to sneak me into Big Boy so I could write this! Hopefully nobody will catch us so I can finish! Mommy said we should have our new modem by the end of the week.

We had a really fun day on Saturday! Mommy and Terry took Boz and me to this pet fest thing in Ann Arbor. We sat and helped out in the Great Lakes Mastiff Rescue booth. LOTS of people stopped to look at Boz because he's such a big boy! LOTS of little kids stopped to play with me! That was lots of fun! And lots of people asked about my boo-boo leg. Mommy said that nobody had to be sorry for me because I'm so happy! And my Aunt Rae and my cousin Jamie Lynn came up to the pet fest, too! Jamie bought a kinda sling thingie for her little doggie, but she carried me around in it while they were there, and I really liked it! It was lots of fun!

I've been playing outside more and more! I can get down the steps pretty good now! And I just run right up them without falling down all the time! Yesterday I chased a butterfly all over the yard! Mommy said when we get home, we're going to go for a big walk in the woods again! I think that's lots of fun! There is so much stuff to sniff in the woods!

Well, I'd better get going so we can go home and go for our big walk! I'll try to write again as soon as I can!

I'm SO awesome!

Last night Mommy was SO excited! Well, first I woke her up in the middle of the night by jumping on her head! Hey, I had to make a big poo-poo. So Mommy took me outside and I made my poo-poo, then we went in the house. It was 1:00 in the morning, but I was ready to play, so we stayed in the living room and I was playing, then I ran to the door and started crying, so Mommy took me out and I made pee-pee! I knew I did something good and was really excited and Mommy was telling me I was SO good for asking to go out for the very first time! Mommy even gave me a treat in the middle of the night! She said she's so proud of me!

We had lots of fun yesterday. I played outside in the sand a lot. I love to play in the sand and dig! Mommy says I'm funny because my face is all full of sand when I dig and it's cute! But every time she tries to take a picture, I wiggle all over and she can't get it. Maybe one day I'll stand still so Mommy can get my picture with my sandy face and I'll post it here on my blog!

Tomorrow Mommy and Terry are taking me and Boz to a thingie in Ann Arbor. It's the Pet Emporium event and it'll be lots of fun! If anyone can go to Ann Arbor, there will be lots of booths and stuff.

Well, I'm going to have to go. Mommy's modem is broken and she had to sneak me into the library to write this and the lady at the desk is looking at us kinda funny. We won't have internet at our house until sometime next week, so I won't be able to write my blog every day until then. Mommy said we'll try to get back up here or go to somewhere else that has internet that we can use though. Have a good weekend everyone! I'll write more as soon as I can!

Woo Hoo!

I'm very happy because Mommy said she got an email from the lady who lost her Great Dane and she told Mommy that her doggie is back with her! That's always good news!

Also, before I forget, the rescue where my Mommy got my big brother, Boz, is having a raffle with another rescue. His rescue is Great Lakes Mastiff Rescue, and the other one is Guardian Angels Basset Rescue. Anyway, the raffle is for a 1968 Corvette that is all redone and brand new! I don't know what a Corvette is, but Mommy said it's a nice prize. There is also an early bird raffle. If you buy a ticket before September 13th, you can win a big trip to either Maui, Paris, or Disneyworld! Pretty cool, eh? The tickets start at $10 for 1, but if you buy more you get a better deal! And this will help the poor doggies in the rescues who are still waiting for their forever home!

My Mommy said I really slept SO good last night! I didn't even get up to potty, and I stayed in bed until 7:00! Mommy was really happy with me!

Today Mommy and my big people sister Brooke had to go to the doctor and some other stuff, so I had to go in my crate for a while. I didn't like it too much today because someone was outside and my doggie sisters were barking a lot and I was scared. I guess it wasn't a big deal because the person was supposed to be here, but I don't like it when everyone barks loud like that. Then some other people came over and took away two of our goats. Mommy said they are going to a nice new home. I was sad because I didn't get to go outside and see the people. They were here a couple days ago and said I was so cute, and I LOVE to hear that!

Mommy said that in a few more sleeps I'll get to hear that a lot again! Mommy and Terry are going to help out at a doggie thingie kinda like the petapalooza thing on Saturday. They are going to help the Mastiff rescue people for a while. Mommy said it's kinda far away, so I get to go with Boz because she doesn't want me to be in the crate that long. The mastiff lady said it's ok if I go because then people can see that mastiff's get along with little guys like me. Maybe some people will get to watch Boz walk around with me hanging on his tail! I LOVE to do that! It's one of my favorite things to do! Boz must think it's fun too because every time I grab his tail he gets up and walks away!

Well, I better go because it's pretty late and Mommy wants to go to bed! Good Night!

They like me!

Finally all the doggies here will play with me! Ok, maybe not my beagle sister, Lucy, but she lets me follow her around the yard! Natasha tries to play with me a lot now! And even Boz played with me, kinda! He doesn't really play much, but he did! Ursula still plays with me the most! She's my best friend!

My Mommy said I'm a weirdo! Just because I LOVE to sleep with my face stuffed into a shoe! I sleep like that all the time...I don't care if it's a sneaker or a slipper or a flip flop! As long as I can get my nose in it!

And I have my very own chore that I have to do now! I was already helping Lucy with her chore. She cleans all the extra doggie food up that falls on the floor. So I help her do that, and I help my Mommy clean under her bed! I go under there and find stuff she lost and I find it for her! I'm such a good boy!

My Mommy got an email about someone who lost their Great Dane doggie in Marshall, MI. I'm going to copy and paste some of it here so that if anyone is in that area or knows anyone in that area they can keep an eye out. Mommy doesn't want to post the lady's phone number here, so she said for me to tell you to either leave a comment or post to Mommy's facebook or something if you have any info on this poor lost doggie. Good evening. I am home visiting my parents in Marshall, MI and my
great dane Audrey ran away Sunday evening. She is a rescue from the
Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League. She is a 2 year old female who has had
puppies. She is a blue mantle with white on her paws, nose, belly, tip of tail,
and triangle shape on the back of her neck, charcoal everywhere else. She has
no collar, tags, or microchip. She's very shy, responds to food, and has an
aversion to men. If you have any information, PLEASE let me know. I also would
love to talk to someone to know that you received this. Thank you.

Well, I'm going to go have my cuddle time with my Mommy now! Good Night everyone!

Blah....

Today was a pretty boring day. It rained a lot so we played in the house. We took a big nap in Mommy's comfy bed! I took a nap with my nose stuck in Mommy's old tennis shoe that she wears in the yard, too! It smelled better than my big brother Boz's butt...I was right by it! PHEW!

Yesterday my big sister Natasha wanted to play with me outside! Mommy and Terry thought it was funny because she wanted me to run with her. Only Ursula can run with Natasha because Natasha is fast like a greyhound Mommy says. I don't know what she thought I'd be able to do with her...she'd leave me in the dust!

Well, I think I'm going to go. I might talk Mommy into making some homemade cinnamon rolls for Terry and Daddy for breakfast tomorrow! Mommy can't have any because she's doing some thing with points and she said it'll take all her points for the whole day. I don't understand the points thing, but if it makes Mommy happy.....

good night everyone!

pee-pee boy

My Daddy stayed home with me all day yesterday! I had fun playing with my Daddy! He let Mommy sleep lots. That's why I didn't get to do my blog last night. Daddy doesn't know about these things.

Mommy said she's wondering if it was a good idea to let Daddy play with me all day yesterday. All day today I kept making pee-pee on the carpet right in front of her. She figures Daddy probably didn't know I did that yesterday, so now I think it's ok. Mommy wasn't happy with me about it at all. She even got out this little thing that squirts soapy water and sucks it up to clean up my pee-pee. She said she's mad because she has to go get a big one to clean the whole carpet!

I started going into my crate all by myself yesterday! I have a water bottle in there and it's fun to drink water from it. I have some toys in there too that I can play with. It's kinda a nice quiet and safe place for me. I like to be safe! Usually I just hide behind Mommy's feet, but now I have another place to go!

Mommy says I remind her of someone named Tramp, and I should eat some spaghetti with a pretty girl! I think that sounds good! I don't even need the pretty girl...I'd just be happy with the spaghetti!

Well, I better go and cuddle with Mommy and do some sucking up! Good Nite Everyone!

Pee Pee and Vinegar

My Mommy says I was so full of energy today! I just ran and ran all day! I had fun running outside, and when I was inside I ran from toy to toy! And then I would fall over and be right asleep. Mommy says I must have something called narcolepsy. I don't know what that is...Mommy and her big words! I barked a lot today, too! I wanted everyone to play with me! Mommy likes my bark, she says it's a cute puppy bark. I think my bark is ferocious! Mommy said I was pretty good except that I keep wanting to pull all of her printer paper out all over the floor! I think that's fun!

Tonight my big people brother Tyler and his friends came over again! They are out in the back field camping again now, but I got to see them and I wiggled all over! It is so much fun when friends come to visit!

Daddy tried to take me for a walk like Mommy did yesterday, but I didn't really want to go without Mommy. We didn't get very far and Daddy had to bring me back. I had fun playing with Daddy though! I was super excited that he came home from work early today because I don't get to see him as much as I get to see Mommy.

Today my Mommy dropped me. She had to, she said, or she'd have squished me. She tripped on the deck again. This time she got boo boos though. Daddy had to put gushy stuff on her knee and then a bandage, and she has this red stuff coming out from under her toenail! It's kinda icky, but she says it's feeling better. I wasn't hurt or anything. Just scared me a little. And Mommy said she felt bad. She had Daddy play with me a little bit before he took care of her!

Well, I played so much I think I'm going to start making nite nite soon! Have a good night everyone!

What a day

Well, the first part of the day was kinda boring. First I made pee-pee on Mommy's bed. Well, I had to really go and Mommy was sleeping and Daddy got up but he went right in to take a shower! What was I supposed to do? Then it was muggy and it rained and it was muggy again. Being in the house wasn't too bad, though. My favorite big people brother Terry let me taste his pork chop! Wow! That was soooooo good!

Finally it got nice outside. Mommy took me and my doggie brother and sisters for a big walk in the woods! I walked almost the whole way all by myself! Ok, I RAN! It was so much fun! There were big green stuff all over that was way taller than me and I ran right through it! Mommy said Daddy better get it mowed because if it wasn't for the markings on the trees, she wouldn't have found the trails! But I thought it was very fun anyway!

Then Mommy was milking Pop Tart. Pop Tart kicked over the milk bucket and Mommy said a bad word. Then when she turned around to remind me that I'm not supposed to tell anyone she said a bad word, she saw that I was all full of goat milk! Next thing I know she's throwing me in the kitchen sink! Yes...throwing me! From all the way across the yard! No, not really. She just put me in the sink and made me do something called a bath. I didn't like that at all. Then she put me on the deck and came back with a towel. I wouldn't go up to her at first because I thought she might put me back in the sink! But she rubbed me all over with the towel and I really liked that! But I hope I don't have to do the bath thing anymore!

Wow, after my big walk and my bath, I think I'm really sleepy! I'm gonna go lay down and make nite-nite until Daddy comes home and I can tell him all about my day! Well, except for Mommy saying a bad word, because I'm not supposed to tell!

New Video!

Here's the link to the video my Mommy made on you tube! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teDPdtA3PLU It's just me running around in the yard a little. Mommy said she'd make a better one when my big brother Terry can be outside, too, so I'm not just under her feet.

Mommy is teaching me a new word. It's "NO"! I kinda get it sometimes. I'm not sure I understand why she says NO. I mean, I know that it means I'm supposed to stop doing something, but I don't always understand why I'm supposed to stop...like when I'm having fun chewing on the couch or picking up rocks in the outside. I really don't understand it when she says "This is a no-no" when she points at my poo-poo when it's in the house. When I make a poo-poo in the outside she says I'm a good boy. I run to Mommy's room and make poo-poo on the doggie bed in there, and she tells me I was supposed to do that in the outside. But I wasn't in the outside, I was in the house. And Mommy says my poo-poo is stinky, so I go in the other room. See, I have manners!

I have a little toy that my Mommy says is a "rubber chicken". I learned how to squeak it this morning! I was so proud because Mommy and Terry and Ursula squeak it and I figured it out! Mommy said I'm not supposed to do squeakies at 4:00 in the morning, though, because it might wake up Daddy. I think that would be a good idea because then Daddy could play with me too! But Mommy said I have to let Daddy sleep.

Well, I'd better go. Mommy says she has a headache so I want to spend some cuddle time with her tonight so she feels better. Good night everyone!

I'm a healthy boy!

Today Mommy gave me special treats! I had some carrot and some bell pepper! And I LOVE them! I like to eat healthy snacks so I can grow up to be a big boy like my brother Boz! He likes to eat healthy snacks like carrots and apples! Mommy said I can't have any grapes, though. I guess that's ok because Mommy makes sure I have lots of good stuff!

Mommy finally got some video of me running in the yard and up the steps! She said it's not the best because she was doing it by herself and I kept getting under her. It's not on you tube yet, though. There was something called an error, so I guess she'll give me the link to give you tomorrow!

The nice people who rescued me are having some problems. They went and got some nice doggies that need new homes, and some of them are sick. A few of them died because they were sick. Something called Parvo. I guess they really need some help with the vet bills because it costs a lot of money to try to make doggies with parvo all better. If anyone can help, even if it's just a little tiny bit, please help them out. They have a website www.waggsandwishes.org and there is a paypal link on there if you can help. They have an address, too, if you can mail them something. And they are looking for foster homes for some doggies. They have to be homes without any other doggies though. They have a facebook page, too. Just look up waggs and wishes on fb to find them!

Well, my Daddy just got home, so I'm going to go visit with him before he has to go to bed! Good night everyone!

Trip to the doctor

Today I went to see Dr. Mark for a checkup. I was awake this time so I got to meet Dr. Mark and Giles the vet tech and Courtney the receptionist! I wiggled all over and gave kisses and everyone likes me there! I got to get on the scale and now I weigh 7.2 pounds! Two weeks ago when I went I weighed 4.2 pounds so I almost doubled! Mommy said it's no wonder I can make it up the steps all by myself now! Just before I left Dr. Mark's office, Giles came in and gave me a shot. I didn't like that at all. But they said it's so I don't get any sickies, so I guess it's ok.

Today was the very first time I went bye-bye in the car without someone holding me! I sat in the seat like a very good boy on the way to Dr. Mark's office! Mommy gave me a chewie, but I only chewed on it for a little bit on the way. When we were going home I wanted Mommy to keep her hand on the seat by me. It made me feel better after getting an ucky shot!

My beagle sister Lucy is starting to like me! Mommy and Terry have seen her sniffing me and letting me sit by her. Lucy pretends like she's not doing any of that, though. Mommy said she'd like me when she got used to me being here and got a little bigger. Even Boz didn't get up and move today when I attacked his tail!

Well, I'd better go because it's cuddle time with Mommy! I love cuddle time at night when Mommy watches tv! I like cuddle time all the time! Good night everyone!

Another fun day!

Today was lots of fun! I went to this place with airplanes with my Mommy and Aunt Rae and Aunt Rae's friend Brenda and Jonas! I didn't really care about the airplanes, but I got to meet lots of people and everyone said I am SO cute! I got to see lots of kids too! I love kids! They are always so nice to me!

Mommy said I slept so good last night! My big people brother Tyler came over with some friends to camp out in the back field! They all said how cute I am, too! I played outside for a long, long time last night! And by the time everyone was off to the field, I was really sleepy and I went right to bed! I got up at 2am to make pee-pee outside, and went right back to sleep again! Then I slept all the way till 5:30, and was only up for about 20 minutes and went back to nite nite until 7:30! Mommy was really happy with that! She said we're going to play outside for 2 hours EVERY night before bedtime!

Mommy said that I'm a sissy! When my big doggie sisters bark really loud, I get scared and I hide. Usually I hide by Mommy, but if she's not close enough to get to really fast, I'll hide by my big doggie brother Boz! My Mommy says I don't need to be scared of my sisters barking because there's never anything there. I'm not afraid when Boz barks, though. He only barks when he wants someone to move off the couch so he can get up there!

Well, Mommy says it's time for me to get off of the computer. It's getting almost to our cuddle time when Mommy watches tv! That's good time because I get to cuddle on Mommy's lap! Good Nite everyone!
