		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ They ran and ran and the tourists smiled 
they ran on, for many a mile 
They did not whine, but ran with joy
and you could see the smiles on girls and boys 
A good days work, the dogs gave it all,
to what reward , not a toy or ball
Just the joy of being a working breed 
they did not know, it was really for mans greed .
Would they have given their hearts and worked so hard 
if they knew of the grave behind the yard.
And would they still, at sight of man, give a joyous bay 
if they knew, in a pit they would end their day.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Yesterday, Mommy gave us our monthly flea treatment. Well..I HATE flea treatment. It is stinky and horrible. Jake is a good boy for flea treatment day. He Actually seems to enjoy the attention. The cat comes in second place for flea treatment behaviour as he hisses and squirms. I am the WORST flea treatment patient!!! So Mommy always does me last. I hate the stuff on my skin. It STINKS! The first time they ever did it to me, I took off running up and down the stairs in panic after wards and they all laughed at me. These days, I just roll and roll all over the floor and try to get the smell off. Sometimes I roll in my cage. Yesterday I did that. I rolled in my cage...oinking, grunting and growling and mumbling with glee. BUT Mommy decided (because Jake was prancing at the back door all happy) to let us out. It was raining. It was muddy. I was stinky with this stuff on me. We have a nice shrub in the yard. It had mud under it. (can you see where I am going with this?)
I was still in my cage when Mom opened the door to go out and i bolted for the outside, flung myself in the the shrub, and rolled and oinked and barked and snorted in the mud WITH GLEE! 
Jake was looking at me like i was nuts and then just went pee. Mommy was yelling at me and calling me TEDDY GET OUT OF THE MUD! GET OUT OF THAT SHRUB RIGHT NOW! MR TEDDY, YOU WILL NOT GET A COOKIE!!!!!!!!! - "oink oink oink" = me. 
Jake had done his business and came in the house and I was still rolling in the mud and making weird happy noises. in the pouring rain. 
Finally Mom gave up yelling and coaxing and just burst out laughing at me. It was THEN, that I came in the house. MUDDY AND BROWN FROM PAW TO SNOUT!

 But boy oh boy did I smell better!!

Kisses,Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ To my dear sweet Teddy.

It has been 3 years now since we brought you into our home. And I just want you to know how much we all love you.
Every day I smile when I see your face. Each morning, you wake me up when the alarm goes off with a face licking and a great big smile, always ready to start the new day! (We call you a "Morning dog") :)

I often wonder what life was like before we knew you. I cannot remember what we used to do before you came to our family and we became a "2 dog family". Teddy you have brought us so much joy and fun and we are so glad that we found you on Dogster. And so glad that we responded to your need and brought you home. You may think that you were very lucky that we found you, because you had been through 4 homes in 7 months and could not find a good home....but WE were the lucky ones. Because Sweet Teddy, you have made our family complete. And we love you and we always will.


Merry Christmas, Teddy

Love Mommy and Daddy]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Guess what Tomorrow is?

Tomorrow is my 3 year anniversary in my furever home!!!

YAY me!!

It was 3 years ago  in October that I was featured on Dogster as Dog of the Week and it was there that myMommy first saw my picture and showed me to Daddy! On November 4th 2006, I WAS ADOPTED AND AM STILL HERE!!!! I am a stray no more.
 My story is truly a Dogster success story!

I want to share with my Dogster pals my last post made by my foster mother on the day I left her home to come and live with Jake. When I read this now it seems like a million years ago.

I want to thank My foster parents (Mini's Mom) for saving me from that terrible place and for doing a Dogster page for me. And I want to thank Dogster too, for making me Dog of the Week so that my mom could find me and save me from doggy hell forever!!!!

Anyway here is my post...November 4th 2006:

Dear Diary,

Today will be my very last day that I see my foster parents because I'm going to my New Home Today!!!!. In an hour, my foster parents & I will leave home and drive to  meet Jake's parents!!!!

Jake's Mom is such a great person! She said that Jake is not going to meeting spot today because he doesn't travel well and will be very hyper to see me (she said that Jake may scare me but I don't think so). She said that it doesn't matter if we won't be able to know if Jake & I will get along at first because she already feels committed to me and will not leave without me. I'm SUPER LUCKY that this family found me on dogster!!!!

As for my foster parents and Mini:
I will not forget them. Thank you for having me in your house! If it's not because of you, I wont be able to find Jake & his family. I will miss you......

Alrighty, I gotta go now diary! I gotta get ready to see my soon-to-be family.

Goodbye now.

Teddy


------

DOGSTER RULES!

THANK YOU ALL FOR SAVING MY LIFE

KISSES,
TEDDY!]]></content:encoded>

There is a ghost and some sort of bug thing that is lying on its back, and it MOVES!!!!

I am afraid of that house and refuse to pass by it. Mommy tries to get me to pass by the house on our walks but I make her cross the street so i don't have to see it.

It is spooky.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Guess what Jake did?

Today we got a Halloween card from Casey and his family and Mommy and me were so excited. 

I Kept trying to snatch the envelope from mommy to see who it was from as she was trying to read the card! There was also a Halloween pic too!  She brought out a cute doggy/ghost pic! It was so nice to get that card!

So mom left the card and pic on the coffee table and went to make dinner and when she came back to the living room area, well-  there was Jake. EATING OUR NEW CARD  AND PIC!:(:-O:-O

HE RIPPED IT IN TO A MILLION TINY PIECES!:(

He said something about thinking he was doing a good job by recycling.

Mommy was sad. Me too.

We want to tell our buddy Casey thank you for the wonderful card and pic..and we are sorry (and SAD) that Jake ate it.

Love,
Teddy:((

ps...do you have another one?:?]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Tomorrow morning, we will get up early - for Saturday- and drive up to our campsite in the woods and stay for a whole week!
Mommy keeps talking to me about camp.....I have not got a CLUE what she is talking about??:? - I am smiling at her like she is nuts.....CAMP?

I really cannot remember camp  - she says we went last year.....I mean it was a year ago,  Mommy! That is 7 years to a dog!

Jake remembers every year though, mom says....we get about 1/2 hour into the trip and Jake gets the scent ( it is a 3 1/2 hour drive)......he starts acting like an excited child, boogies and dances. he really looks like a goofball if you ask me. :)

....This will be my 3rd year.....Mom is not sure if I remember it year to year or not, because all I do it sit in the big honking truck and smile my BIG TEDDY SMILE!!!!

BUT HEY, I ALWAYS DO THAT. - Teddy = Smiley boy!

ANYWAY! OFF WE GO ON A NEW ADVENTURE

STAY TUNED! I'LL BET WE HAVE SOME GOOD STORIES TO TELL WHEN WE GET BACK!! - see you in a week!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ we HAVE NOT DONE A DIARY ENTRY FOR AWHILE! Jake and me.

Do you pups ever wonder who reads the diary entries every day? I mean someone reads them and then decides which ones are the best one...Like, THEY READ THEM ALL! Sometimes I wonder how long it takes for the Dogster diary people to go through ALL of the entries.

Well, today at the doggy park I met an English Setter who chased birds!  He was so fast! And I spent so much time chasing him around the doggy park that mom and dad thought that he was a SHE. mom was saying...look, Teddy is in love with that dog, and then some guy came and called "her"  MONTY!
 The dog, not Mommy!

BOL!!

I also made sure today that I visited every person and doggy I could  just so that I could flip their water bowls over and splash in them too!

BOL again!!!

But that was nothing compared to what Jake did, when we left the park...I will let him tell you.....

Kisses,
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

It is a sad day indeed.

She had a wonderful smile and a kind soul and all of our Dogster pals will miss her terribly. Especially me. 
There will never be another Marley. I wanted to share her page with you all so you can see how special Marley is:

This is Marley's link.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My girlfriend Marley is terribly sick with cancer...today she posted this on her diary blog...and I am so sad...please read and pray for Marley. She is only 6 years old....:(
------------------------
Well, the liver biopsy did not come back with very good news. It appears the cancer has spread and I have the "bad" version of hysti0cytic sarcoma, which means that there is nothing they can do for me. They will put me on steroids for a bit to hopefully help me feel better enough to eat. Everyone tells me I'm too skinny.

Who would have thought this would be me?

Well, since it is what it is, I have to accept my fate. Despite all my health issues since I was a pup, I consider myself extremely lucky. I picked good parents who took care of my boo boos and sicknesses. They fed me lots and gave me more love than any pup could ever imagine. Who could ask for a better life?

My wish for is that my parents and auntie to try not to be sad. I came into their life for a reason and they for me. It's the way things were meant to be.

To all my friends on Dogster, you have been a blessing for me and my family with all your POPs and prayers. My wish for all of you is to love your humans with all your hearts (like that isn't hard for us Golden s, huh?)

We don't know how long it will be, but when it's time have faith that I will no longer be in pain. I will finally be with my best friend ever...Angel. I can't wait to play bitey ears with her again. :)

...and finally....Teddy. I Love You. You are the cutest boyfriend a girl could ever have. I will watch over you every day and when you are ready, I will be the first one at the Bridge waiting for you. My wish for you is that you live a long and happy life with your loving family.
------------------------------------
please pray  for my girl, Marley. And keep her family in your thoughts...this is her page.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today, we went to the doggy park after Jake had his appointment at the smelly vet.

It was a weird day. Jake had to have eye drops but he forgot to tell you that we also all had to have our flea treatment too. So Jake was in a pretty grumpy mood all day long until we got to the doggy park!

The first thing mom noticed was another Teddy was waiting for us. He was standing at the gate, like he was greeting us. His face looked different from mine, but his colour and markings and tail and bum feathers (:-O) looked identical to mine. Mom found the dogs owners and asked what breed is your dog and they said  Husky/Shephard.
not Husky/Collie like mom and dad started to think I was.....so we are still wondering from time to time what breed (Or mixes of breeds) I am.
One of my Dogster friends sent mommy the info on DNA testing but we have not done it yet!
Mom says she knows what I am already anyway, I am cute, she says! :D

On another note we ordered BBQ chicken from a take out place last night and I managed to steal the BBQ sauce and also the sour cream from Moms baked potato and hide it in my crate!
Mom and Dad are surprised at how sneaky I am getting. When they catch me they  scold me and then they marvel at how I get away with things! - Wow, he's getting good mom said!

he he heeee

Kisses,
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Jake has been telling you about mommy looking for our stockings and tree ornaments.

I was listening to a bunch of banging around and mommy saying "words" and went to look down the basement stairs.
I saw mommy throwing boxes out of the Room of Doom and tossing things in the corner for garbage. "Where the heck is everything???!!!" she excalimed and I woofed "I don't know mommy!!!" And gave her a scare. :)

So I watched her search for a long time and then she found something....."Ha, I have found some tree ornaments!" she called to the boy. And brought a few little boxes upstairs. Then they opened the little boxes.

ALL of the boxes were empty! :-O
Except for one
So she opened up the box and said "Something weird is happening here"
The box was supposed to contain a Dickens character. A man pulling a Christmas tree. 

When she took it out, it had no head! A headless Dickens man!!! :-O

The Boy took one look and burst out laughing! "That's so funny! Put it up anyway!" 
Mom said it would make a better Halloween decoration. BOL!

ps
She thinks we put the ornaments and stockings in the attic last year! :-O
She will make Daddy look tomorrow and see.
I wonder what they will find in THERE??]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ There is nothing better in the whole wide world than going for a walk in the fall!!!!


Leaves fall on the ground and when your paws step on them they make a crunch crunch crunching sound! I love to stick my snout in the freshly raked up piles of leaves too! Sometimes I fling the leaves around. It is so much fun.
I have made up a happy fall song.

CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH THE LEAVES ALL GO!
BECAUSE SOON IT WILL START TO SNOW!

Thats all I have so far

what do you think?
Jake says I need another verse.......

It was Jake's first time there. I had such a wonderful time in there! I got a bath and got my nails done and my fur is now all nice and soft and smelly!!!!!

Sigh!
We even got little ribbons on our collars from the groomer and free cookies because it was Halloween! It was so much fun! I do not itch anymore.....

YAY!

Then we got bully sticks from mom because of Halloween! AND I got to bark at kids all night.....WOW! I had a big day...Mommy says I was so sleepy that I snored in the kitchen EVEN BEFORE bed time! I was so content. I got a bath and cookies and then more treats with the bully stick and then got to bark all night long...Life is good!

BOL!

Kisses, Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Oh my!!!

Mommy was just reading our last entry and pointed something out to me. We had said this "I came from a flea ridden home"
We need to correct this....because I came from Mini's and foster momma's home and it was NOT flea ridden! 
Those fleas came from my backyard hell mommy, whom foster momma rescued me from. AND she got rid of those terrible fleas for me. She gave me my first ever flea bath. I remember that to this day,  she is the greatest angel on earth! 

To My foster Momma! I hope you read this one day. I live, and get fat, and have a good life, because of you! Thank you.

Love Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I have been very itchy lately....and kind of grumpy. I have not had mu usual smile for mom and dad. 
I am always itching myself but Mom was getting kind of curious about my scratching and biting and was a bit worried too. So, yesterday mommy flipped me over and looked at my belly and saw that I have bites on my belly. She called the Smelly vet and then Jake and me had to go in to see him this evening!
He says we have fleas. And gave mommy some kind of oozy liquid stuff to put on our skin. He says that now if (and when) the itchy flea thingies bite us, they will die! YAY! I feel better already. I am sleeping better today and my smile has come back. Even after only one day!

Mommy told me last night as I was laying on the floor all sad looking that she was sorry. She said I am sorry Teddy, that I didn't know you had fleas. she said I came from a flea ridden home before I came here and felt kind of bad that I came to live with them and ended up getting fleas again. She promised me that she would take us to the vet and get rid of the "Itchies" and she did!

I love my mom! Thank you mom for taking me to the smelly vet to help me be rid of my itchy fleas. 
These things sometimes happen, but at least we are getting rid of them!

Kisses,
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom saw this poem on this website http://www.dogsdeservebetter.org/doogie.html

please go to this webpage when you get a minute.

We went there and saw this poem and Mommy thought about ME and my foster mommy saving my life....so this poem is dedicated to Mini's mommy,  we did not write this:

The Backyard Hell

As I lay dying in a pool of dirt and mud
I felt a hand touch my matted fur
My old eyes looked up and saw
An angel with sad eyes staring down at me

The hands stroked my fur and the unfamiliar
touch puzzled, yet comforted me
Can it be that I have already died,
Released from the never-ending agony
of chains, neglect, bones grating cold ground?

Yes, my rescuer has picked me up from this backyard hell
And bathed my skinny, dirty, bony body
Released me from the heavy chains and the fleas
whose bites I long ago became accustomed to

I have little time left
But in a dog's world, a hint of kindness,
a soft touch, a kind word and a warm blanket
overshadow the years of suffering when no one cared
Can you see the love and gratitude in my eyes?

As I lay dying, I looked up
and saw kind eyes looking back at me
An angel rescued me from backyard hell
And paved my way to eternity.

For my foster momma! and dad! And Mini!

I love you still and think of you always

kisses
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Jake has posted a diary entry all about playing ball in our new (1/2 and 1/2) yard and how he is all confused about which way to run when mom throws a ball because we are "fenced off" and he think mom has bad aim when she throws but do you know what?

Mommy leaves the gate open, don't know why he is confused. 
And he always runs the same way no matter how many times mom throws the ball the other way. 
It is not too hard to figure it out.
BUT I am not  going to comment about Jake's blonde-ness this time. 

Because I have a grievance too.

Where do I go pee now?

I had a favourite spot and now it is fenced off. Jake says I will need to find another new place to go!!!!

But for now, mom is leaving the gate open. Until we get new grass. I may need to think about this a bit.

Kisses
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today we had to go to the smelly vet. :( It was all a surprise to us too. A secret. 
Mommy came home from work and Grandma came too. And we were so excited to see her. Well at least Jake was. He always loves to welcome people to the house. I prefer to check them out and then keep a close eye on them, even Grandma. Sometimes, she comes in and steals our plates....she tells me they are hers and ....and I have seen her steal  weeds from our yard. Anyway Jake greeted Grandma with a howdy doody "jump" and a bunch of slobber. THEN mommy said ok lets go get in the car. We ended up at the SMELLY VET! Grandma had me by the leash and Jake "walked" mommy to the door.
I did not want to go inside. BUT I did anyway. I cried in the lobby. I hate the smelly vet. That place stinks like terrified dogs. 

Jake had a fun time running around the smelly vets office and everything but me, I did not have a good time.
I lay down on the floor all flat when he came to examine me. He asked me why I was so tense. I really do not know why I wanted to tell him.

I got 2 needles, something stuck up my nose, Jake stole my smelly vet special cookie and to top it all off......When it was FINALLY time to go home mom asked the vet "Do you think he's fat?" and pointed at me. Smelly vet said "YES"  Then they all laughed because they said I looked embarrassed. Well DUH! Luckily though he said that if I stay the same as I am now and not get any fatter I will be ok. He did not say anything about a diet at least. *whew* 

So now I know the truth. It is now out in the open. 
I am getting fat. 
There is no more denying it for me. This is going to be hard, but here I go:

"Hi, my name is Teddy, and I am a foodaholic" Does my butt look big to you?

Kisses
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today at the doggy park I did something I have never done before in my life. 

Every time I go to the doggy park I get followed around by male dogs. Some are big and some are small and they all want to smell my bum. I wouldn't mind so much if they were girls but geez......Do I look like a girl dog to you?
Anyway, today a dog came to the park and followed me all over the place and he was really getting annoying. Sometimes, when mean or annoying dogs are bothering me, Jake will step in and scare them away. This doggy decided that he liked me so much that he wanted to do ......something else....... he got behind me. And I growled and snapped at him and told him off. Mom and Dad were totally shocked!
He left me alone for a bit and then later he came up to me and tried it again and I let him have it! I even had my fur up on my back when I snarled at him. HE TOOK OFF RUNNING! 
Finally for the first time in my life, I have stood up for myself. 

LOOK OUT JAKE- I HAVE AN ATTITUDE NOW.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ So Jake jumped from the big honkin' truck today when we arrived at the doggy park.

Honestly I dont know why they put up with him. :)
He is nuts I think, but terribly, terribly cool!

Today at the park, I met a Jack Russell terrier named Eddie. He fell in love with me. I could not shake him all afternoon! Teddy and Eddie.
Mom took pics of us.

My entries are not nearly as exciting as Jake's  because I don't jump out windows in a single bound.

I just have a male Jack Russell in love with me.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ How exciting!
Today i got my own mail!

Mommy came home from work and check the mailbox. We heard her say "oh look here it is!" So me and Jake had our noses going sniffing the air when mommy got the package from the mailbox. Then she said "LOOK! It is from our pup pal Hendrix and it says, To Teddy!" I was soo excited! I danced around and tried to open the package with my teeth. (I was sure I smelled cookies). Mom opened up the package and inside was a box with a paw shaped thingy. Mom pressed a button and all of a sudden it made noise and started whirring. She held it up in the air and we stared at it. Then she put it on me and pressed the button and I jumped and ducked. She tried Jake and he did the same. She never commented at all. Just put it on the coffee table so we could get used to it. She says it is called a pet massager. Hendrix has sent us a pet massager! I think I will get used to it. She has since tried it on s a few times and I am starting to kind of like it!!
When mommy left it on the table I decided it was a fun toy! Mommy has caught me twice bouncing it around on the floor and playing with it!!!

Also, I WAS RIGHT about smelling cookies. Because there was another thing in the package and it was special cookies!!!!!!!!! BOY oh boy do we like them! I think I would stand on my head for those special cookies!
If Hendrix gets those everyday, he is a very lucky puppy! All I know is that he is a very NICE and SPECIAL puppy!

Thanks
Hendrix!

We love you!

Jake is going to post now......he is gonna tell you WHO in our family likes the pet massager the MOST!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I cannot believe it!

Christmas time is here again!!!

And I am still in the same home! Yippeee!!!!

I am remembering last year, Jake was telling me all about Santa and how he snuck into your house.......SNEAK INTO MY HOUSE???? I thought. "I dont think so!" I went on high alert then - last year-,I tried to stay up to see the big fat guy break and enter into our home. I barked alot that night! 
BUT I never got to see Santa. He must stay up really late because I finally fell asleep around 3 am and still never saw him. But in the morning, when I woke up. there were gifts and the stockings were full!
That Santa guy came and I missed him.

But now here we are again, and THIS is a whole new year!!!!!

AND this year I am gonna stay up and wait for the big fat guy, I have figured out HOW.
I will pretend to sleep! AND I will be oh so quiet, so Santa will not know I am there.
oh ya gonna bite Santa's butt!

That'll teach him for breaking into MY house twice!

Kisses,
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I've been christmas tagged! Yay!!!

So, with this new version of tag I have to list some things I would love Santa Paws to bring me and then choose 5 pups to tag. 

Hmm, I think I'd like a biiiiiiig box of treats, and...a box of treats, and...a box of treats, and........ oh yeah, a gigantic box of treats. :o) And something to chew on like a bully stick or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5....

Now, which 5 pups shall I tag? Hmmm...
1) Lucy, my sweet furry friend from San Diego
2) Marley, my sweetheart
3) Chloe my other sweetheart BOL! Just kidding Nick!
4) Kai because he is a bah humbug and he needs some Christmas spirit.
5) Bonnie because she had surgery on her tongue and is not feeling well. 
Gee, can you believe it's only 3.5 weeks until Christmas!!! I gotta tell mom to start baking some cookies soon!

Have a save holiday season, everypup!!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ ok so I have decided that I LOVE fall!
Mommy takes me for walks and has noticed that lately I have been acting totally silly and weird. It is BECAUSE- Jake told me that in the fall here, the humans rake their leaves and then leave them at the end of their driveways/lawns and then the city comes around and vacuums them all up.  He tells me this and I am thinking. "WHAT? Vacuum them all up????? No way!" I love sticking my nose in each and every leaf on our walk!
Leaves are the coolest, most smelliest things ever to land on earth! 
LEAVES ARE THE BEST!! 
I thought that I must save the poor leaves. So, when mommy takes me on walks now, I pounce on them! All of the neatly raked piles...I cant resist them.
Screw the citys Vacuum progam thingy I MUST PLAY IN THE LEAVES! 
If all the leaves are going I need to smell them all!
So here is my point:
Mom takes me on walks and I am  busy walking and pouncing through all the neighbours' leaf piles and mommy does not understand. She is yelling at me to quit sniffing/playing/running though the various neighbours leaf piles.
No way mommy! Leafs smell too good to give up. 
JAKE says there ARE some leafs he would give up and he is talking about that naked Leafs guy from the Toronto Maple Leafs!!! BOL!

Jake is hockey crazy!

Talk to you again soon!
Kisses
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

The first annive ...</description>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today is the one year anniversary of the very first day I came to my forever home!
The first anniversary of when Jake and me met! 
We met at the school yard down the street. 
I had just been on an 8 hour drive to my new home and mommy took me to the school yard. I saw Jake for the first time and he looked so cool! He smiled at me and said "wanna play?"
Then we wrestled on our leashes, and one of us growled. 
Our leashes got all knotted up and mom and dad thought "OMG what have we done?"! 
We wrestled and ran around for 4 days around the house like a couple of lunatics! 
BUT we eventually settled down!
BOL!
I remember it all as though it was yesterday!
A whole year!
I cant believe it! A whole year since I left my foster family and Mini!
When I look back in my diary I see how sad and lonely I was last year. 
I said in one diary posting, "Doesn't anybody want me? EVER?" 

But my mommy saw me posted on Dogster.  
I looked pathetic and sad and I was wearing a pair of reindeer antlers.
She fell in love with me and showed me to daddy.
And then she told them that she wanted to adopt me!!!!!
And now here I am! In my home with mommy and daddy and the BOY and Jake!

I am soo Lucky! 
Another Dogster success story!

YAY for me!!!!!

I got a furever home.
If it was not for Dogster, there is no telling what would have become of me. I have my furever home now, and it has been one whole year.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today, they tell me it is Hallowe'en. All I know is that little people keep coming to my house dressed funny. And they want to eat our food! 
Mommy bought some candy the other day and now, these weird little monster people want to steal it. I keep barking. I am doing my job to protect the candy. I am not impressed.
Mommy is trying to figure out how to stop me from protecting the candy from the little monsters. We may have to spend the rest of Hallowe'en in the back yard. SKUNKS MAY BE OUT THERE!!!
YAY!  I hope so. That would be so much fun!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I have been skunked!

Tonight, I went outside to go for a pee.......and got skunked!!!

Skunks stink.. and now, so do I.....
Mommy gave me a bath, and I rolled and "oinked" all over the place.  Today is my 10 month anniversary in my new home and the first day of school.  We had not seen a skunk all summer and today, we were caught off guard. 

long story short, 
we went out
mom smelled skunk
mom came running outside
Jake smelled ok
BUT I GOT skunked!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND did Not smell ok,

Jake tells me it means that I am now a man....and all the doggies in moms house have all been "skunked" at some point.

I WILL NEVER SMELL A SKUNK AGAIN....as long as I live
I Hope I remember this vow.  
Kisses
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

Wise men say

Would it be a sin

Gently to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things were meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life too

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ This morning we got up kind of early. Early for Saturday anyway. Mommy said were going to the doggy farm this morning. But I didn't understand. We got in the truck and I thought we were going to the doggy park. So I squealed and whimpered with happiness. Daddy kept saying "Teddy stop squealing!"  It was not too long of a drive, but after 15 mins in the truck, I realized we were not going to the doggy park and got kinda scared. I jumped in the front seat into Mommys lap! I stood on her and lay on her and tried to sniff out the window...."WHERE ARE WE GOING MOMMEEEEEE?"
Then we pulled into the driveway and we saw all these doggies and a nice lady came out.
Mom and dad were telling her how they were going away for 2 weeks in October and how we needed to be boarded. The lady said this was our trial visit, to see how we were.
We met lots of doggies there! It was soo much fun!
We got to run around the doggy farm, and I  peed on their tractor!
Jake has a neat story about how we took off running down the driveway.....I will let him tell you that part!

On the way home mommy said to me, "Is it ok that we go away, now?  Do you like the doggy farm?" And I am thinking "Mommy, it is gonna be so much fun, it will be like we are on vacation too" I almost can't wait for them to go! funny! Anyway, it is Jake's turn next!

Kisses

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mommy keeps telling  me that tomorrow, we are all going to go to a place called CAMP.
It is my first time up there, she says, and wonders if I will go swimming in the lake?  I have never swum before.  She will take lots of pictures of my first ever trip! 
And soooo, it looks like we are going on a family vacation tomorrow!!!!
And there is a lake or something to go swimming in! I can't wait, it sounds like it is gonna be so much fun and Jake is totally happy about it.  
The drive will be 3 and a half hours long....and I plan to squeal with delight for at LEAST 2 hours.....Daddy should  be pleased about me squealing for 2 hours! The rest of the time...I guess I will nap.
I will let you all know how I got on at my first time to camp when I get home next weekend!

I am getting excited already  *SQUEAL*!!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Summer is coming! The boy has started his exams. And next week, school is done for the summer. The boy does not have a summer job yet and we hear that he will be home all summer doing odd jobs around the neighbourhood and taking us for longer walkies!!!! yay!

Jake keeps telling me something else....he says that in 2 weeks, we will be going to a place called camp. We have a thing called the trailer and it has a thing called the lake and we will be doing something called swimming and chasing something called a chipmunk (or red squirrel).....he says we will be doing these things for a whole week.
What is a week?
What is a trailer? What does it trail?
I know what a lake is but  have never swum in one......I think I saw a black squirrel before on my walks......
I am not worried about these new things....
From what Jake tells me, I am gonna have a whole heap of fun!

ps...mommy talked to Mini's mommy yesterday on the computer thingy. They have moved away and we had not talked to them in months! And we were able to talk to them last night for almost an hour! It is good to talk to Mini again.
He still has a place in my heart.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Thank you Squirt, for tagging me! I also got tagged by Hendrix! This sounds like fun!

Here are the rules (Hint: Copy and paste the rules so you don't have to type them again):

Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged, need to post in their Diary the rules & their 7 pawsome facts. Then choose 7 dogs to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to pmail them and tell them that they have been tagged and to read your Diary, or you could send thema rosette announcing they've been tagged!

So here are 7 fun facts about me...

1. I was recsued when I was posted as Dog of the Week on Dogster!
2. I like to look in the kitchen sink every morning before I go outside.
3. If mom or dad talk to me too much and look me in the eye, I attack them with kisses and nip them to death!
4. I love to chase the kitty!
5. I am getting chubby because ever since I came here, I can't get enough food!
6. I graduated obedience class and won 2 competitions at the end
7. I like to sleep in my cage. I dont need it anymore but I still want it and I sleep with one of moms socks in there. If the sock is not there, I will find it.

I am tagging Chester, Valley, Rocky and Sarge!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today grandpa came over early in the morning and he and daddy started to set up the sidewalk stones for the people run. The people will be in a fenced off area and Jake and me get the rest of the yard. That's what we figure anyway. They worked on it all day and Jake and me had a great time because we got to stay outside and play all day. I ate all the grass and dirt as it was all being dug up. I liked being outside all day today. I noticed something fun that I never noticed before. Bees!
Boy are they fun to chase around the yard! I stalk them and if I am lucky enough to catch one I try to eat it. 
I don't think the humans like me chasing bees too much. They don't know what they are missing. But mommy kept yelling at me and said something about not wanting to take me to the vet today thank you very much.
Why would I go to the vet? That little bee can't hurt me!  How can a bee beat me up?  Anyway, I hear that tomorrow is Mothers Day!  Happy Mothers Day Mommy!!!!!
And Grandpa will be back again in the morning to do some more of the backyard people  run.
How fun! 
Tomorrow we will be outside all day again! 
BEES!!!!!!!!!
 Maybe I will get to eat one soon and see what it tastes like!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I got this from my last obedience class today! I won 2 competitions! Today was graduation!

Oh Lord don't let me once forget
How I love my trusty pet

Help me learn to disregard
canine craters in the yard

Show me how to be a buddy
even when my sofa's muddy,

Don't allow my pooch to munch
postal carriers for lunch.

Sheild my neighbour's cat from view,
guide my steps around the doo.

Train me not to curse and scowl
when it's puppy's night to howl.

Grant I shan't awake in fear
with a cold nose in my ear.

Give me patience without end,
Help me be "A Dog's Best Friend"

Yesterday it was 6 months since I came to live with Jake!
And I am still here!
Yippee!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Early this morning, I went with Daddy in the big truck!
We got up early this morning and went to Grandma and Grandpas house to get these great big side walk stones to put in our yard.
Daddy says me and Jake will have them in our run.
We are gonna have a dog run put in because the yard is all icky and the grass is gone because we killed it! So, we went there and daddy and grandpa put the big stones in the truck and I stayed in the car port and got pets from Grandma!

I also got to meet Timmy, Grandmas Shi-poo. He is almost 1. He is lots of fun!

We all brought the stones back home. And I woke up Jake. "Get up! the stones are here" and he is going on about some guys named Mick and Keith...I think he was still kind of dreaming.

The RUN will probably be put together next week and on, until it is finished.

Today was a good day because I got to go somewhere cool in the big truck,  we got to go to the doggy park, and also, for the first time ever, mom went shopping and  found FROSTY PAWS! 
We have had our first ever Frosty Paws binge!

yummy good!

Frosty Paws = the signs of summer says Jake!

Who cares about summer? Gimme some more Frosty PAWS!!!!!

It was fun. It bounced around. 
I like to steal things from the bathroom all the time.
sometimes toilet paper.
sometimes garbage from the garbage can.
but today I stole the bathtub plug. 
It was something to do.
and I hid it under moms treadmill.
Daddy looked and looked for it all morning

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Tonight Jake jumped in mommy's bath before the tub was being filled up and he soaked the floor and left the tub all muddy. 
I told on him. 
I ran downstairs and jumped around and mom wondered why I was a little wet, and why I was running around acting silly. 
Then I just  stared at her and told her come and see what Jake is doing! Then she caught him red handed prancing in the "still filling up" bathtub. 
The boy cleaned up the mess because he wanted a bath because he had to go to bed early. So mom had to wait for her bath.....She told daddy I was a good boy because I didn't boogie in the tub.
Jake is mad because I told on him. I only told on him because he took all my toys last weekend. Stole them all off me!
Mom helps me out when see can, but tonight I took matters into my own paws. 
If Jake does not share with me, there will be more snitching!

Ha!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Tonight mommy and me went for a walk and it began to SNOW!!!!
It was real weird snow and it hurt! Mommy called it hail. It started out being a cool walk. Because we got a few houses down the street and a nice man came out and asked if I was friendly and mom said yes. So he called his doggy out to the driveway to meet me! Fiona, her name is and she is a chocolate Lab! Jake has met her lots of times but this was my first time meeting her! What a cutie she is! she said "Hi, little cutie wanna play?" I was on my leash so it was kinda hard to play like that.  Then she jumped in her van. And her daddy told her to get outta there. Then, as we left she said "I'll see YOU later"
I said "OK BYE!!!!" I had chipmunks to see. and trees to pee on.

when we got around the block the weather started to change. I was not sure what was happening until I heard my mommy say " stupid, bleeping snow"
Snow was back!!!
I was SOOO excited I dragged mommy around the block! (She left my gentle leader at home) I had hail/snow stuck in my fur! Jake had been going for his walk with the boy at the same time.
When he got home we were so excited!!! Mom just let us play outside in the mud/snow/god knows what else is out there......yard.
the humans watched us act all weird. 
Dogs love snow! I wish I could make a snow man!
Jake says this will be the last time it snows now. 
Really?
That is kind of sad
dont you think

kisses
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Oh, little Teddy, where shall I begin? 
We had Jake already and one day I was looking at Dogster and there you were. Looking for a home. you had a pic of reindeer antlers on your head and I was in love! Mini's mommy really knew how to get to a dog lovers' heart! LOL! We told mini's mom wen were interested in you but  we almost didn't get you. Because you were going to another family, an older family in NY. But they, at the last minute had health problems and told Mini's mom that they may not be able to keep their own dogs through their lifetimes. Keeping a dog its whole life was important to Mini's mom, as it should be, So we were next in line and we were a little surprised to get you!  I remember that I worried and fretted. (Do we have enough room? Will Jake get jealous?  How much will food cost? Holy jeez ,what have we done?) I am not embarassed to say....that I freaked. Because I had NEVER HAD 2 DOGGIES BEFORE. 
Then the day came to get you and all I can say is, oh my dog, were you cute. you looked soooo scared! and you jumped in our truck so obediently...i mean WE WERE STRANGERS! And I called you Teddy Bear and you licked me to death!!! I'll  never forget that. I found out later that your first momma used to call you Teddy Bear. 

OH TEDDY...we are so glad we got you. You are so sweet and we are very, very lucky to have you in our lives. I am in love again (A third time, thank you) with a dog.......
There had better not be any more cute dogs with reindeer antlers on their heads posted on Dogster anytime soon. Our lawn will not be able to handle it! 
LOL
RIP LAWN
all this babbling, I will get to the point.  Teddy, when we got you, you had been through  4 homes and you were only 7 months old. So I vow to give you what you had been looking for all those months....A PERMANENT HOME. Teddy, my tail of devotion to you is to give you your forever HOME. Our house is home and this is where you will live for the rest of you life.....And know THIS.....nobody will take you away from us. They will have to cut off my left hand first...and I am left handed!
Welcome to the family Teddy Bear.
We love you!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ So mom is home from her trip, but Jake already told you about that. That was Friday, but on Saturday I got to go to my second obedience class! I love it there. Just like Jake said, it is the best!
We learned off (which Jake taught me but I still dont really get it) and stay (which I am very good at) and the cookies! oh the cookies! mmmmmmmm
rollovers they are called.
yummy good!
After obedience Daddy had to go to his work for a minute and mommy was told she could take me inside too! I finally got to see why daddy smells like trucks. There were great big trucks all over. Then we went in a big building and he sat on the computer for abit and some machines made noises and he talked to people on the phone. It was not very long but Mommy saw that I was getting bored and took me for a walk around the office and the parking lot. All those trucks! Mommy thought it was interesting that I was so fascinated by the trucks.
When we got home, I told Jake all about it and he got jealous and wrestled with me and slobbered all over me. He said he had not gone to dad's work since he was a baby when he pooped and peed on the floor in the office!
BOL!
Wonder if Jake will be mad that i told you that part?

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today I turned one!!!! and what a cool day I had! It was my first day of obedience class. mommy took me by herself because the boy had a hockey game and daddy had to take him......I was scared! Mommy was surprised. I think it was because I got in the car without Jake. I did not know where I was going. I cried in the car.....mommy said have I ever taken you anywhere that you got hurt before teddy? Why are you scared?
I'm thinking oh no mommy, the neuter and surgery on my head didn't hurt at all...But I never said that. I was too worried. When we got to obedience, I didn't want to go in. But mommy coaxed me. Dogs were all there on their leashes, some were excited some were scared, one peed on the floor. and I cried. Mommy said to the lady she thought that I was worried I was going to move again because I have lived in 5 different homes. The lady said this will be good for Teddy maybe he will realize that every time he goes in the car it does not mean he is moving to a new home. Then she gave mommy the yummiest cookies I have ever smelled in my life ever! Jake told me about those when he went. mmmmmmm. no more fear! mommy said sit, down, stand, I did it all. 
GIMME MORE TREATS! ME LIKEY! 
I had a good time after all, I even made a girlfriend, she is a bulldog. I forget her name. I will ask her next week. Then after obedience mom took off to catch the boys playoff game. (They lost) boo. The boy is done hockey now.

Then we went to doggy park with more birthday cookies and mommy and Daddy took pictures of us. Mommy will post them when the camera is finished charging. She has stuffed kongs waiting for us in the freezer! What a great day! I love birthdays, don't you?
I am one today! And still in my nice home with my mommy (luv my mommy) and my brother Jake (luv Jake). Mommy is going to Las Vegas tomorrow with Grandma so we will not be online until next weekend. She is packing and I am stealing her shoes and running around the house with them! 
A guy has to amuse  himself somehow....what a better way to annoy a lady than to steal her shoes???? BOL!

Anyway happy birthday to meeeeee
Happy St Pattys day to all
And have a good week.
See you when mommy gets back from Vegas!
I have to get to my birthday party!
Mini where are you boy? I wanted to say hi!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Did you see them, doggies? Did you see my baby pictures?!
Mini's mom sent some puppy pictures to me and my mom today by email, she got them from my very first owner. Me and mommy like them very much.
Mom says it cool for her to see them because she has wondered what I looked like as a puppy. She says it is kind of like adopting a child or toddler and not knowing what it looked like as an infant.
So there I am!
Baby Teddy!
for all to see!
Wasn't I cute ,says mom?
Of couse I was mom.

THANKS TO MINI!!!!!!
(AND Mini's mom)

ps.
I can't wait for obedience class to start. Only 10 more days!!!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today I have been frolicking. that's what Jake calls it - frolicking- in the snow. We had a snow storm and it snowed all day. Lots and lots of snow! Jake taught me how to eat all the snow off the deck before the humans can shovel a path! mmmmmm! yummy, delicious snow.
Mom laughs at us as she watches us tear around the yard. She says that when there is a snow storm like this, we don't need the dog park! When we come inside, we have white snow noses! But we have been having lots and lots of fun and mommy is having a hard time getting us to come inside the house tonight. She is bribing us with stuffed kongs!!!!!!!!!
So, the word of the day is frolicking.....I don't remember ever having frolicked in my life before. 
I love winter!
Sigh

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ There is something to be said about Golden retreivers. First of all, they are totally BLONDE! Everyone thinks they are soooo smart but man, they can be really blonde...hello?
Jake just got himself trapped in the fenced off area of our yard. When I first came to this house, dad and the grandpa guy put up a snowfence around the terribly muddy area. Well, today Jake crawled under it. Nobody is sure why. He crawled under it and was on the other side going "oh ya, oh ya who's the smart dude now? I am in the fenced off area! na na na na na!" It was kind of ingenious that he figured out how to crawl under the fencing but not too smart after when he realized he could not get out! He barked and barked until mommy came out and laughed at him. She could not figure out how he got in there, so she called The Boy and he found the place he had crawled under. They had to lift up the bottom part of the fence to make a small area big enough for Jake to crawl under. Funny as it was, we thought that was the end of that.
Well, my dumb brother just did the exact same thing again. "I'm going in here.....uh oh....I can't get out again" bark bark bark at the house for someone to let him out of it.....I said to myself- you gotta be kidding me....YOU are the alpha? The second time, mommy was not so impressed and got mad at him. Then sent the BOY out to rescue him and give him heck. I was inside getting petted and told how smart I was! Jake is now lying on the kitchen floor looking guilty.  and I might add- A little confused.
I'll bet you anything he will do it again tomorrow. 
I am sure DADDY will be pleased when he has to get his boots and coat on and pull up the fence! 
Jake I love ya, but you are a REAL BLONDE!!!!
Kisses

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ It snowed and snowed last night! I love the snow. Jake was telling me all about it but I have never seen snow before, so I did not really undertstand him when he told me how much fun it was. Mommy has been letting us outside to romp in the snow alot because it has been too cold for walks. But today after the boys hockey game mom and dad put their coats on and started up the big truck and off we went! I was worried....They did not bring a jug of water with them for us to drink so I was not sure where we were going....I kept remembering the smelly vet.....So I was a bit nervous. But as soon as we got to the road that leads into the park I started to squeal! Mommy said, how cute, he knows where he is and daddy said Teddy stop squealing in my ear. And Jake was like, I told you where we were going man.
We got there and as soon as mom opened the gate I took off!!!! running like the wind. Mom had her camera with her and she has posted some pics. She said all my pics are of me in the house and it looks like I have no life. So she took some of us and posted them on our dogster plus photo albums. I ran and ran and ran. Mom said to dad that she has not seen me that energetic at the park before. I even joined in on the golden/lab/border collie ball chase thing they had happening. You know, some one throws a ball and all the "ball dogs" race for it. I usually don't bother but today I was in there! I came in third once or twice. I think Jake was impressed. 
Boy I am sleepy.
So I will go for now. Jake is going to update his pics and do a diary entry now. I will woof again real soon.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My Mini is back so all is well again.  He had a yucky virus on his computer thing and that is why he was not on Dogster and not talking to me.  It was a long time..... almost 3 weeks without Mini. I was worried, but Jake told me it would be alright. but i still worried about him. Mini and his family saved me! They helped me to get a new home! How could I NOT worry? Anyway all is good again and I am content to be able to pmail my good friend and know that at the same time, my brother Jake is here for me too! I do so love it here. But i still want to be able to talk to Mini when I can. 
Anyway, on another note....I LOVE THE SNOW! oh boy is it fun!  Mom says it is too cold for the doggy park so she lets us outside  in the yard to play all the time.  We have a shrub that we are working on demolishing. 

Will let you know when we actuallydestroy it totally!

And I sent him a star and still have not heard. So we joined one of his groups to talk to him in there and it turns out everybody was looking for him too, so now I am worried, Jake says that Kitty probably ate the computer wire and the computer is broken, he says cats are stupid like that.....Mini.
Where did you go? If anypup knows whre he is can you pleeeease tell me?

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today I went and got the stitches taken out of my head! We went in the morning, and even though I knew where I was going, I still kinda freaked out when we got to the smelly vet. 
Then  a guy took me away all by myself and left mommy and daddy sitting in the lobby. That kinda made me wonder for a bit.....What is really going to happen? More surgery? I stopped walking and the guy had to coax and pull the leash to get me continue to follow him. "Where is mommy and Daddy?????" I wondered. The last time they took me away by myself I had sugery. But it turned out ok.....the guy took out my stitches and then took me back to the lobby to ask my parents if they wanted the cone removed. "YES! I THOUGHT THAT WAS PART OF THE DEAL MOMMY" for a minute I was worried, I thought, "What if they say leave it on? What if it never comes off?" But thank goodness they said yes and the stupid cone collar was finally removed from my head! boy oh boy! I was soo happy that I didn't even pee on anything in the lobby today. 
When we got home. Jake spent a lot of time checking me out and smelling me. Then we played and played all over the house. Mom says it reminded her of the first weekend I came to live with them. There was alot of excitement. We have been wrestling and playing mostly all day and I am  very tired. But also very happy.
Because:
I look normal again
I AM normal again.
I am not a freak anymore
The dogs won't laugh at me now.
but most of all.......If the ground ever freezes and if the mud ever goes away.....I CAN GO TO THE DOGGY PARK WITH JAKE AGAIN!!!!
I can't wait! Thing are looking up.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mommy just told me some really good news. And that is that tomorrow morning I am going to go to the smelly vet so that he can take the stitches out of my head. At first I didn't like that. The smelly vet again!?!?
THEN mommy told me that it also means that I will not have to wear the stupid cone thing anymore! hooray! Am am soooo happy to hear that. It is hard to do things with this cone thing on my head. I broke it twice but daddy kept taping it back up. Mommy says I hurt her when I try to jump up on her. I have 
"coned" her in the head once or twice. I also don't like the sound it makes when Jake wags his tail on it. So goodbye and good riddance to the cone!
I am going to look forward to going to the smelly vet tomorrow. For once, actually looking forward to it.

I will let you know how it went and if I peed on anything in the lobby!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Ok, So I look like an idiot now...... I have a shaved head and one of those cone collar thingies on my head. Mommy keeps saying how cute I look......
I FEEL STUPID MOMMMY!
I hate the smelly vet. I peed on the dogfood in the lobby when daddy took me there. I got to go home the same night though which was good because I really did not want to sleep there. I had my pillow and my blanket that smelled like home just in case. mommy came to get me at 6:30 and I was soooo happy to see her I whimpered. I was so happy to be going home. When we got home the boy let Jake out and then they brought me in and put my pillow etc back in the cage and put me in my cage to sleep. Then they let Jake in. At first he did not see me and then he saw my cone and me and backed up from me like he was scared of my cone and barked and barked at me! Later mommy let me out of the cage because I kept whimering and wanted to see everybody and eat some food. Jake went and hid under the computer desk all night and would not come out! I was lying on the floor with my mommy and Jake was just hiding under the desk watching us all night.  It was not until the next day that Jake would come to me and not run away from me. I was feeling sad. I have a strange thingy on my head and Jake doesn't like me anymore. Mommy gave me lots of love and attention and gave me my pain pills and cookies and pets. She keeps taking pictures of me - how embarrassing. She says she will post them later.
I have to go out to play with Jake now. Will type more later
Kisses

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Tomorrow is the day I have to go to the smelly vet and get my cyst removed and get snipped - whatever that is! Jake and me have been playing and playing all over the house today. Mommy says it is because I want to get the last bit of fun in before I go to the smelly vet!!!!!!
She is right.
We had a good Christmas and got lots of toys. and bones. and treats. I have decided that I really like the Christmas thing. I did not get to see Santa though. I also fell asleep before he came like Jake did last year. Santa guy was really quiet too. I never got to bark at him.
Oh well, there is always next year.
Gonna go sleep now. I am worried about the smelly vet tomorrow.
I will keep you all posted

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I saw a Charlie Brown Movie that had that song in it. CHRISTMAS TIME IS HEEEERE. 
This Christmas thing is getting very exciting. I am even not thinking about my surgery after Christmas! All the presents have been wrapped and are under our tree. Jake has finished his obedience class and passed with flying colours, the BOY is off school, and Mommy and Daddy are finished work. I am ready!!! Jake says we just need snow, he says that usually we have snow for Christmas. I wanna wait up for that Santa guy tomorrow night because Jake keeps talking about him and I do not believe it. WE HAVE NO CHIMNEY JAKE! How the heck does he get in our house? Jake says he doesn't know because he has only had one Christmas before and he fell asleep and never got to see Santa.
I will let you know how he got in next time. He ain't getting past me without a good sniff. or I will bite his butt! BOL!
While Jake will be napping I will be on high alert for a break and enter big fat man dressed in red!
Happy Howlydays to you

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I have a lump on the top of my head. And today, mommy took me to the vet. The vet looked at it and told mommy, yes this is a cyst and it has to be removed. Mommy says that on December 27th I am going to have the lump removed and also will be fixed and microchipped on that day too!
Jake says Dec 27th? Rotten holiday for you Ted. I am starting to worry. Mommy says I will maybe have to stay there overnight. I don't like the vet office. I cried the whole time. It smells like scared animals in there.  The vet guy kept trying to give me cookies and I spit them on the floor. Mommy says Ben did that too. So she gave them to me herself and I took them then, but only off mommy. The vet guy smelled funny. He petted me and I slunk away from him. There was a doggy with a broken paw in a cage there, crying. I do NOT like the vet. When we left I PEED ON THE DESK on the way out!!
Just to show them!
I like the vet guy ok, but the place just gives me the creeps!
I don't WANNA sleep there! 
Mommy says that I will be spoiled when I come home from the surgeries though. I want a SUPER SIZED KONG when it is all over mommy!

Kisses,
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My mommy went out yesterday to the doggy store. She went without Jake and me because she said she was going Christmas shopping and it was on the way. She came home with some bags and one of them had bones in it! She gave us each a yummy roast beef Nylabone. It was the usual thing. Jake gobbled his down and then wanted to eat mine. He even stole it from me and hid under the dining room table when daddy yelled at him. I got it back.  Then daddy put it in my cage so that I could eat it when I went to bed at night and closed the door to the cage. It was safe and sound in there.
Jake kept barking at it. Jake does not like to share anything! Unless he wants to play tug of war with me!
But do you know what else happened? In the same bag that had bones in it, mommy took out a fuzzy red paw thing. She said it was my Christmas stocking. Jake and Ty already have one and now, I have my very own. They even put my name "Teddy" on it. And do you know what? My stocking is bigger than Jake's! SSSHHH says mommy. Do not tell Jake. He will be mad.
by the way,
Do you guys know that a big fat guy comes and puts treats in those stockings?
Santa something.....I have seen pictures of him....he looks weird.....

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mommy says that today is my "'one month" anniversary in my new home! A whole month!  We celebrated by mommy and the boy going out and getting Jake and me nylabones. Mommy got a harder one for Jake, a white one, and a clear medium one for me. The only problem with that was that neither one of us wanted the white, harder bone. So we wrestled and fought over it. Mommy said next time she goes to the doggy store, she is going to get us both the exact same kind of bone. 
Do you know what? Our house is decorated kind of funny. Jake says it is because of Christmas. He says that I do not have a stocking yet, and then says ha ha ha na na. I think mommy will buy me one though. I wonder what they are for? We have one up already with JACOB written on it with a gold pen says mommy  and another one with TY written on it........Why are our names on these things? Jake keeps saying to me. "You are gonna get goods thing in there You knowon Christmas day" but I just don't get it. It is all so strange. 
Guess what else? We have a tree in our house now!!!!!! I wonder why? Isn't that strange? A tree inside, instead of outside.  Is my new family odd, do you think? It has fancy things on it! Mommy and Daddy and the BOY all decorated it!
 
Also, when I go for walks now, I keep seeing weird things on people's lawns. (lighty up things.) At one house, I saw a big waving red fat guy! I growled at it. Mommy giggled and said that was a big blow up santa. Huh?
You know, I do not know what is going on but you know what? Everything kind of looks pretty. I like the lights at night. The tree thing in our living room is nice and big. I heard mommy say to daddy that she hopes  I do not decide to pee on it. 
MOMMY!!!!!! Really! I can tell it is not a REAL tree. It has no smell.

Anyway Happy Anniversary to me! I heard mommy say that I have many more years to come in my new home! I think this means that mommy and daddy and the BOY and Jake and Ty are gonna keep me forever!~ Really and truly! Everyone already told me that but I didn't really believe it until today! And do you know what? Even though Jake does not like to share any toys. I LIKE IT HERE!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today mommy posted pictures of the two doggies that used to live with me in my old home. Foster mommy had sent my pictures to new mommy and when she saw those doggies she cried. She said that she wanted to do a tribute to them. I do not remember too much about that place because I am so young. But I have a scar on my ear from one of the doggies who bit me. I am just happy to be in my new home. I get food and food and more food and walkies and the doggy park and out time.
I love out time.
We find sticks and fight over them. Mommy laughs at us as she watches from the window. Jake's mommy and Daddy - and mine now,  had cut down a tree and piled the big branches and logs beside the shed. We keep going to the pile of wood and taking pieces of the wood pile. and run around with our own "Sticks" and play tug of war.
I am having sooo much fun here. And mommy is spoiling me with cookies and food and brushing! She calls me Teddy bear and I like that. I feel as if I have heard that name before......Teddy Bear.

We went to the doggy park yesterday and a big white dog named Ransom chased me around yelling at me. GRRRRRRRR he said! He wanted to fight me!!!!! I yelped and yelped and cried for my mommy!!!!! I ran around in circles hoping I could outrun him. He was big!! In my panic I forgot where I was in the park to where Mommy or Daddy was - I  could not find mommy or daddy!!!! I could feel his breath as he was closing in on me!!!!! I yelped and cried "leave be alone, you brute"!!!!!
Then all of a sudden  I could hear the doggys mom saying "Ransom!!!!! NO!!!!" Then I hear the familair voice of mommy saying "Teddy, come hereTeddy!" And I saw her then. I made a beeline to mommy and she and other people at the park were making sure that I was ok. I was ok, just a little freaked out.

But Ransom got in trouble with his Mommy. I wonder why he was mad at me?
Anyway it was ok. He left and then came back and we played for a bit. I hear that he is one of Jake's  closest buddies. hmmmmmmm..... Don't know, he kinda scares me!.....I know that next time I see him, I will try my best to be nice to him.

Kisses Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today I actually got in trouble all by myself!
There was no blaming Jake for this one. *woof*
Mommy was making a yummy dinner.
And I wanted some of it!
It smelled soooo good. 
Daddy had tried to feed Jake and me in the morning, but we weren't interested, we wanted to play in the yard. We just kept nipping at each other and playing. He got fed up with us, So he took the food away and let us out instead, and we did not get  food until mommy came home. Jake did not care about food, but I was HUNGRY. Mommy gave us the food from the morning and I gobbled it down and then I ate Jake's. "ok," she said "I have to cook dinner now, you guys will have to wait, if you are still hungry" WAIT? For what? 
Anyway,  So she put potatoes on and I saw her with a roast, *slobber, yummy*.  
Jake said we would get some of the roast later if we were  good boys and waited patiently until the humans were done. Oh I could smell the food! it was heavenly!

Then Mommy left! She went downstairs for a minute and left a bowl of Cauliflower and cheese on the counter top, covered up with a dish towel!

I was soo hungry. I could stand it no more.  I Stood up on my back legs and removed the dish towel first. Jake was like, "What are you doing? Mommy is gonna be back soon!" " I do not care" I said, "This stuff smells good ! Torment me no more!!!!" And away I went 
lick, lick, lick,
"What makes mommy think we cannot have this good food too?" I wondered.

I don't know if I even heard mommy come back in the kitchen. Jake did not warn me. I heard mommy say later that she wondered what was going on because Jake had a horrified look on his face. He went and lied down even before mommy even started to yell at me. Like he was ready for THE BIG YELL.

So, Mommy did her yelling  thing. And Jake was hiding so I knew I was on my own.  Thinking fast, I wagged my tail at her to tell her that her cauliflower and cheese was the best I had ever tasted. Possibly the best in the world.  (*but it did no good*)

It was ok though because later, Jake was right and we got leftover roast, mixed in with our regular doggy food. Then we got to go for walkies.

Mommy does not hold a grudge
So that is good
Even though she told the daddy guy on me. So now HE is gonna make sure I don't steal food off him too! *Sigh*
Oh well!
Kisses

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I am learning what Jake has been doing in his doggy classes - he calls it cookie class!
Mommy has been showing the boy what Jake has been doing so he does stuff in the living room for everyone. Today I started doing it too. Mommy just ignored it because it was Jake who was working. But when she was done with Jake she said ok let's see what you can do baby. She used hand signals and I did them all. Sit, down, sit, stand. I did it! Every one was so excited. Stand was kind of weird at first but all of a sudden I understood and stared right in to mommy's eyes and then I did it! So mommy says "he is smart, guys. He will be an easy one to train."
Oh yes I will - if it involves treats- then oh, yes indeed...I will be easy to train. **tail wagging!
Did i mention that this afternoon the boy had a hockey game and they all left the house for a bit and mommy told Daddy not to put me in the cage because I had been in it in the morning because it was Jake's class day?
"Lets give them a chance together alone" she said. "Teddy has spent alot of time in confined places. Do not put him in there. let's just see." Daddy looked at me kind of funny.
I tried to look cute and sad.
So they left me out!!!!!! and Jake and I promised to be good. Then we played and we played and we jumped on the sofa and Jake moved the loveseat across the room. Honest it was Jake - not me- we were not wrestling or anything!
Then we got sleepy and I lied down on the couch and had a nap.
I was off that couch when they all got home. But somehow daddy knew I had been on there.
The big fluffy pillow on the couch I had lied on had left my paw prints!!!!! ARRRRRRRR - silly Teddy - 
It was ok though they just smiled at each other. No damage done, but boy oh boy did we need to go out. So that is how mommy figures we had played and played all rough in the house. because we really had to go! That and the loveseat being accross the room!
Mommy is smart!!!!

I don't know what the plan is for tomorrow. Mommy says something fun will happen though

stay tuned

Kisses

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ yay! Mommy and the boy took us to the doggy park tonight. Even though it was dark. Jake told me that it was Friday and sometimes that means doggy park and he was right!
I played with Jake in the dark. He was saying something about not being able to see his ball in the dark.
When we went home mommy took Jake out on his leash because they needed to practice walkies for obedience class tomorrow morning. Jake had not done his homework. I was upset at first because mommy took Jake and not me, so I looked out the front door for them and whimpered. The BOY gave me Jake's toys to play with while they were gone!!!!!! I was careful to drop the toys when they came back so he would not see! Then mommy said your turn Teddy and put on my gentle leader and off we went. Jake did not like staying home either. So he told me that The boy gave him a cookie for being a good walker. The boy is kind of cool. He pretends he is too busy being a teenager, but he likes us doggies. That's for sure.
So we had a fun night

I hear tomorrow morning is Jake's obedience class again.

I will let you know if he smells like cookies when he comes home again!

Kisses

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I am bored! I want to see the big world out there! Mommy says this week the boy and that daddy guy have been sick, So she has been staying home looking after them and we have not gone walkies much in awhile. Jake is happy digging in the mud. I was reading what he put in his diary. I did NOT do the new hole in the yard! I am a good boy. I am always too busy outside protecting the humans from people. WHAT WAS THAT NOISE?
woof. woof. woof - warning woof - under my breath
Mommy likes me being a watchdog because she says that Jake does not do that protecting thing. He looks embarassed when she says that. 
Jake likes to lead me in to trouble like with the hole. For example this morning mommy and the boy left the house and we were waiting for daddy to come home and Jake says Wanna see where I sleep? So he shows me the bedroom upstairs and the big king sized bed he shares with mommy (Daddy works nights)
"Come on, Get on it" he says. "No" I said. "I hear daddy does not like it when we sleep on the bed" 
"Nah!", he said, "It's cool, you'll see, look how comfy it is!!!" So he hopped on the bed. I was still standing there like, I dunno...........
Jake said " Come on, I tell you it is cool, Daddy will NOT mind"
So I hopped on and we snuggled on the bed. OOOOOOOOO! How nice and soft. Mush softer than my doggy pillow in my cage. Jake says I can come here too someday!
Oh it was so soft and so nice....we went to sleep.
Then I heard a noise! And I went "WOOF?"
IT WAS THAT DADDY GUY! He was home and we missed him because we were sleeping!
 All of sudden Jake is like " oh my god, oh my god, we have to get out of here!"
JAKE LIED T O ME!
I  tried to bolt right past the daddy guy because I knew he was gonna yell!
Then... you guessed it...We got yelled at. something about the bed having dog prints all over it and someone lied on the pillow and got it all doggy! Apparently, mommy is ok with it but daddy is not......
So you see...Jake keeps getting me in trouble along with him.
It's ok though

He is really cool. Even though he keep making my ears all slobbery. 
He is starting to share mommy! The other day mommy petted me and again today and Jake did not care!

Things are looking up!

Kisses
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I think we are friends now, Jake and me! He is sooo funny. He gets so silly when I play with his stuff. I don't know why he is like that. I don't want his slobbery ball, I just want him to chase me when I take it. I always give it back. Today new mommy gave us kongs stuffed with dog food. I was not really used to the new stuff but I liked it anyway. well, Jake came and took my kong. I guess he was still mad about the last kong episode when I took his! I laughed. Mommy was mad at jake and saying No Jake, that is Teddys Kong..........you know what? I just took the kong he had in the first place. I didn't care....food is food. But Jake then decided he wanted that one instead and every time mommy looked, he had 2 kongs! Jake did not want me to have ANY Kongs. She kept giving them back to us as if we were human kids she said. Then finally we went outside to play and roll in the mud! And when we came back inside, the kongs were gone. I think I can still smell them in the freezer!!!!! Jake is playful today! He still wants to play with me in the house. We have both learned ENOUGH and DOWN while in the house so you know what we do????
We lay down and nip at each other and roll around quietly so mommy doesn't notice! I think she notices, but does not care as long as we do not go "Nutso" in the house late at night.
Any doggies out there know what the word "Nutso" means???

Anyway, I am gonna go play with Jake now

Kisses 
Teddy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today mommy and daddy got up early and let us go outside. Then after awhile they put me back in the cage and took Jake on his leash out of the house.. Something about obedience class. I cried because I wondered where they were and where my friend Jake was going? To Another house? On a walk? Why can't I go tooooooo? So I cried and then the boy came down from his bed and let me out of the cage and  let me outside and after awhile, they all came home again. JAKE SMELLED LIKE COOKIES! BUT HE WAS VERY HAPPY AND SO WAS MOMMY! And he was nicer to me today. Because mommy said "enough" when he went to bother me and then he got cookies! Then we were all happy. Mommy even gave me cookies because I was lying down in the house being good!
I do not know what Obedience class is But I know that it involves cookies!!!!! and that is good!
 PS today I met a grandpa guy who put up a fence around our new mud pit so we could not go in it and mud wrestle. And also a grandma person, I thought I had met them all already!
They were nice.
Kisses

		<description>HI!!!!!!!!!
Here I am now on my new computer at my new house with my new brother Jake who is sleepi ...</description>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ HI!!!!!!!!!
Here I am now on my new computer at my new house with my new brother Jake who is sleeping. It IS kind of late!

But boy oh boy ho boy I have had fun!!!!! I think Jake is jealous of me a little bit but he still likes me.  He likes to play tug of war in the yard with me with sticks. FUN. I have a yard to play in now!!!! 
For the first day I kept running to the door and smelling it. Mommy says it is as if I wanted to make sure the "out" door was still there.

I am still getting evey one's scents. I barked at Shane today -  Jake calls him the boy so I guess I will too. 
I keep forgetting who lives in the house. I know mommy, she is cool and she smells good. And the new daddy guy is great, he gives me pets when Jake won't let mommy give me pets. 
And then there is the boy. He took me walkies yesterday for my first walk.
Then he goes on the computer when we get home......I am not sure if he wants to bond with me or not.
So I am figuring Either mommy or that daddy guy will be the best bet to bond with!

Mommy says my foster mommy and mini did an amazing job with me. I went to the vet on Tuesday (doesn't scare me, I wonder why Jake is so freaked out by the vet?)  and the vet told the new daddy guy that I looked great! No fleas or anything.FLEAS? EWWWWWWW I hope not, foster mommy and daddy worked so hard to get rid of those things.

I want to tell everyone on dogster who is reading my page that I want to thank my foster family and Mini and kitty too.

My foster parents were awesome! New mommy calls them angels!!!!!! they took me in the car 3 1/2 hours to meet my new furever family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! New mommy says that there are not many people that she knows who give  a neighbour dog they want to help  good food  (Like holistic food, whatever that is) and keep them so clean when they know they are not going to keep them and that means that my foster family were angels and you know what? I agree!!!!!
Thank you foster mommy and daddy and Mini and Kitty!!!!!!!

And just because I now live in Canada and I have my own page, do not think that I will forget you.
(I have heard that Jake STILL emails his breeder and he is
1 1/2 yrs old!)
I am soo sleepy now. New mommy says it is time for cage.
*Yawn* ok new mom.
I hope the Jake guy does not eat my ears anymore tonight, they are all slobbery!
Kisses
Teddy]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Diary,

On Nov 4th Saturday, my foster parents drove me and Mini up to Canada to pass me over to my new parents!! Mini kept whinning the day that I left. I think he knew that I was going to leave. Mini my good friend, don't be sad, I'll never forget you and I'll keep in touch with you on dogster!

I'm now with my new family and Jake and I'm having a lot of fun!! I love playing with Jake and my new parents are great people!!! My foster parents are going to transfer my profile to my new parents so that I can dogster at home! Yay!

I'd like to thank you all of the doggies who cared about me on dogster! I'm so lucky that there's a happy ending to my search of a loving family! 

Big Kisses,
Teddy]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear Diary,

Today will be my very last day that I see my foster parents because <b>I'm going to my New Home Today!!!!</b>. In an hour, my foster parents & I will leave home and drive to Canada to meet Jake's parents!!!!

Jake's Mom is such a great person! She said that Jake is not going to meeting spot today because he doesn't travel well and will be very hyper to see me (she said that Jake may scare me but I don't think so). She said that it doesn't matter if we won't be able to know if Jake & I will get along at first because she already feels committed to me and will not leave without me. I'm SUPER LUCKY that this family found me on dogster!!!!

As for my foster parents and <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site href="http://www.dogster.com/170918"><b>Mini</b></a>:
 I will not forget them. Thank you for having me in your house! If it's not because of you, I wont be able to find Jake & his family. I will miss you......

Alrighty, I gotta go now diary! I gotta get ready to see my soon-to-be family.

Goodbye now.

Today, My foster mom clipped my nails. I'm as usual a good boy and so I lay down and let her do what she wants to me. After the nail cutting, she said that since I'm so behaving, she'd try to cut the extra hair in between my pads. Woof! I use to hair the scissor getting anywhere near me but tonight, I was such a boy!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ There're 8 more days till Nov 4th- The grand day that I'd meet my new family!!! I've been waiting for this day for a loooong time. On Nov 4th, my foster family will drive up to Canada with me to meet Jake's family! I can't want to see them!!!!!

Will everything go smooth? I hope that Jake and Jake's parents would love me!  I hope that I'd get along great with Jake!! I hope that he'd like playing with me. I hope that the kitty Ty will not hate me. I hope that Jake's parents will not think that I look cuter in my pictures than in-real-doggie. I hope that Jake will be a nice doggie.

Jake told me that his mommy will get me a NEW pillow and a NEW Kong! *tail wagging*. 

Nov 4th. Nov 4th...NOVEMBER 4th!  I'll finally meet a family that will love me. Although I'm not sure how does it feel like to be "love", I'm sure that it will be the greatest feeling ever in the world. Dear God, I'll wait for Nov 4th patiently and quietly and hope for the best. I'm not a greedy doggie- like any other doggies, I just wants a home that I can call mine forever. I'm a good doggie! Please grant me my wish. For once!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ At first, there was a minor problem for me to go to Jake's home but now I think Mommy and Jake's mommy have everything solved. So I think this is it! 
I'm only 7 months old and I've stayed with 4 families already. Sometimes I doubt the saying that "dogs are loyal" because I really don't know WHICH home is MY home. How can a doggie be loyal if he doesn't know who are his family? How can a doggie learn to love if there's no one for him to love? 

I finally found a home that I belong. 
I finally found a loving family for me to be loyal to.
I finally found a family that would love me and treat me WELL.
I mean, FINALLY!
I cannot be more happy.

Jake's mommy care about almost every aspect of a doggie!! ..Before, I may be one of the unlucky doggies but now, I'm sure that I'm one of the luckiest doggie!! My life just changed from the moment my foster mom found me and things are getting better and better.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Remember I mentioned that two families were really interested in bring me home? Guess what? Mommy has been e-mailing them again and again and I think instead of going to Valley's home, I'm going to join <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site href="http://www.dogster.com/pet_page.php?i=388697&j=t"><b>Jake</b></a>'s family!! Valley's family is really really nice but mommy thinks that it may be slightly better for me to go to Jake's home. I really appreciate that Valley's mom is not mad and that Jake's mom didn't change her mind....at least...not yet.

Although Jake and his family lives in Ontario, Canada, they are willing to drive to Montreal and we are going to meet there!!!!! Can you believe that they are willing to drive so far? I heard that it will take them a total of 14 hours of driving time!!

Like Valley's family, Jake's family is really nice!! Now I can't wait to meet Jake and play with him! I saw his pictures and he is a beautiful Golden Retriever! I'm really grateful that not only ONE loving family welcomes me but there are TWO!! You know, mommy has been asking them a lot of questions like dog food, Vet Care, daily routine, grooming, etc...I even start to feel bad for Jake's mom and Valley's mom because my mom is using so much of their time for typing e-mails!

Now I hope that everything will work just fine and I can stay in Jake's family!!  The only thing I worry about now is that Jake's family will change their mind..
I'll cross my toes everyday now until the day that we meet.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I've received an e-mail from Valley and he told me that he is aware of a "possible problem" in the future. Mommy told me that she will talk to dad about it to see what will be the best for me. I'm so glad that Valley's family is willing to bring me home because I truely think that they are nice people but at the same time I hope that Jake's family hasn't changed their mind yet and would still love to bring me home.

I think some of you may think that my foster mom is being too picky and that I should be happy if ANYONE wants me. The truth is, since I've always lived near her in the past, she knew how sad my life was. My mommy cares about me and wants me to go to a GOOD home, not just any home. If she didn't care about me, she wouldn't save me and I would have been in rainbow bridge long ago. Unfortunately, mommy says that she knows that she cannot provide me with the best that I deserve and that she may move overseas and she knows that she cannot bring me with her.

Mommy says that my fate is in her hands now and she'd feel really bad if she'd ever know that I'm not treated well in rest of my life. She feels that she's responsible of me.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today, my mommy called <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site href="http://www.dogster.com/pet_page.php?i=275049&j=t"><b>Valley</b></a>'s mom to talking about me and to set a meeting date.

We will be meeting on October 25th Wednesday in Albany, NY. We are still looking for a safe dog park to meet there so hopefully we can find a good place. My mommy talked to Valley's Mom and she seemed to be a really nice person who is a responsible dog owner and will take good care of me forever! I'm so happy and I can't wait to meet them!

At the same time, I will miss my foster parents and <a  class=bodyTextRev target=site href="http://www.dogster.com/170918"><b>Mini</b></a> soooo much!! Mini is my best buddy over here that I love to play with! He is a really GREAT friend and I hope that he will not forget me even after I moved to the new family!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ So far, I've only reply about half of the responses I've received!! There are too much thankful notes to send! (oh, of COURSE I'm NOT complaining!!!! Are you kidding?) I really need to catch up on that otherwise some pups will think that I have forgotten them.


I'm really blessed!
There are currently 2 families that are currently really interested in adopting me. <b>I'm really thankful to Valley's Family & Jacob's Family</b>! They are both very nice family and I cannot express my graditude in words. This time, I think hope really does exist! 

I will be meeting Valley's family the week after next week to see if I can get along with Valley and their other dog Toto. Jacob's family said that if my foster mom cannot find anybody to take me home, they will bring me to their loving home.

I swear that I'm not being greedy at all, but <b>I just want to let doggies and their family out there to know that if you would like to bring me to your home, please, please send me a pmail!</b> This week is my golden week because I'm on DOG OF THE WEEK but as soon as I'm off the homepage of dogster (which is within a few days), I know that everything will go so slow and if unluckyily things don't work out with the 2 families, it may take me a long time to find a loving home!

Finally:
1) I really appreciate all of you who send me greetings!!
2) Thank you Valley, Jacob & Charlie for considering adopting me!
3) I'm a really GOOD doggie
4) I love dogster!!! Dogster Rocks!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ This morning I got up and I looked at Mini. He gave me that weird look like we missed out something really great! What is that that we missed? A Cookie? That would be very bad!!!

After Mini used the computer, I got a hang of it and wow, I have another star this morning and 4 more Rosettes!! I had this competition with Mini saying who will have the more STARS and guess what? I know that I will win! (Way to GO MINI!) Mini is too lucky now and so he doesn't need those lucky stars as much as do!

There are a lot of pmails and thank you pmails that I have to write today!!!!!
I hope that those doggies who gave me the nice greetings won't think that I'm forgeting them because I didn't, and I will NOT!

I LOVE YOU GUYS! I LOVE DOGSTER! YAY!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today, I've received a lot of pup pal requests, rosettes, pmails and even a STAR. I cannot be more thankful and I really appreciate all the sweet things that the doggies and their parents say to me. Today is really a great day- it's the best day I EVER have. Never did so many doggies and humans pay so much attention to me before. I hope that good things will start happening to me from now on. You know, they say that good things will happen to good doggies, I'm starting to believe that it is true!


We came home very late today so Mommy & I are going off to bed for now. Tomorrow is my foster dad's b-day but I promise you that I'll continue to pmail the doggies that contacted me and for those who gave me Rosettes (and a Star). I haven't forgotten you guys! I'm just a little too sleepy now....

Sweet Dreams everyone.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ The only good thing of meeting my 1st owner is that now my foster parents and ME know my real b-day!! My Ex-Owner said that my B-day was on the 17th or 18th of March, 2006. She said that I was given to her when I was only 4 weeks old. I'm two months younger than mommy estimated my age to be! 

Good news is it makes me more adoptable!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ <b>Our new neighbor moved in downstairs and guess who is living downstairs? MY 1st owner!!!</b> She happened to move here!! My mommy & daddy were VERY SURPRIZED! My 1st owner recognized my daddy and she too was surprized that we have her dog because she thought that "her" dog was put to sleep already by our neighbor.

She asked to see me so Mom & Dad brought me downstairs to say Hi. She said that she was moving and she couldn't keep her dog hence she had to give me away. She kept on telling everybody else in the house "that is my dog, teddy! " I know that inside Mommy, she is mad at that lady because she was the one who abandoned me and now she seems to be so excited to see me. Plus, she kept on saying the word "my" in front of the word "dog".

My mommy thinks that that lady should have thought about the possiblities of moving before she got me! Mom thinks that it's not like I'm an object that can be tossed around. You know, before Mommy had Mini, she lived in a place that do not allow dogs so mommy knew that she had to find another place to stay to keep Mini, and she did! How lucky is Mini! Gosh!

Mommy said that she will not let that lady know that mommy is looking for a family for me because she will NEVER, EVER return me to that lady. She said that if she has abandoned me once before, chances are when there are difficult situations, she will abandon me again.

Mom says that that lady is the last person to have me.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Yesterday, Mommy and Daddy brought Me and Mini to the dog gathering! It was a nice day out and there were close to 20 doggies!! At first, Mommy & Daddy kept me on leash so that they can observe how I am with other dogs! You know, as usual, I'm GOOD. I just wagged my tail and let everybody sniff me. There was this one dog named Andrea (GSD & Husky mix) and he liked to mount on me but I was fine with it. 

So later, Mom & Dad took the risk and let me run around with the leash attached on my collar. WOOF! I was so happy running around. Sometimes I may want to mount on another dog. Then later, two doggies when running in a small path and I followed them. Mom & Dad kept on calling my name but I just totally ignored them and followed them into a pond of muddy water. There I was, with half of my body INSIDE the muddy water and drinking it. YUM.....Why don't we have this water at home?

Mom & Dad was kinda mad  that I went playing in the mud and got SO dirty but t you know, it's so hard for me to resist following doggies. So later, Mom & dad brought me to Petco to have a self-bath. I was such a good boy for a bath so I think Mom & Dad forgave me for getting so dirty. The bad news is that I heard that next time I'll be on leash when I go to the dog gathering.

Sigh! Why can Mini run freely but I can't?]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ You know, it's really unfair that Kitty just has her profile but SO MANY kitties like to be friends with her!!! I'm cute TOO!!

You know, today I went to PetsMart with Mommy, Daddy & Mini. The Dog trainer Natasha and Ashley said that it's unbelieveable that I'm such a sweet doggie although I came from such a background.

Woof! See Mini likes to bark at other dogs and little kids and he always gets so hyper but for me, I'm really calm and just like to chill out! Not that I'm not interested in meeting new people, I am just, you know, CALM. Mommy likes this so much about me which is SO GREAT! I gotta behave well so that Mommy & Daddy would fall in love with me and would have me F-O-R-E-V-E-R. 

One thing tho, Daddy, If you keep on forgeting to being me out to go potty, you can't blame me for doing business in your bathroom (floor). When I have to go, I really HAVE to go. And the bathroom is where humans go, right?! So I couldn't be TOO wrong to go over there too!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mommy's bathroom is really cool! They have this huge water bowl and everytime mommy pushes a button, all the water will be "renew". What I don't understand is that why is mommy covering it and not letting me to drink from it. Why does that huge water bowl have a cover anyway? I don't get it..]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Playing with MINI is so fun!! I haven't seen a small dog that has so much energy! At first Mommy doesn't want me to play too rough with Mini because she's afraid that we'd fight but guess what, we are good buddies now!

Have you see how the way Mini eats? He sucks the food right in without chewing them!!! WOOF!!!. I thought that Mini is older than me so he would have known how to chew. I may need to take an Obedience class but Mini should definitely take a CHEWING CLASS. 

Do they offer that over in PetsMart? Does anybody know?]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Sept 21st, 2006

Today, my foster Mom & Dad took me from their neighbor and brought me to the vet for an exam & vaccinations. I was covered in fleas and hence I have to clear them up before I can go to my new home. My foster mom took a flea bath for me. I'm all fresh & clean now and I cannot be more happy. 

My story:
I used to live with a family but they abandoned me and another family took me in. After months, they decided to move to CA and so they abandoned me together with 4 other dogs and many other cats. That family left all of their belongings and all of us to a family member, a woman. The woman cannot care for us and was going to put all of us doggies to sleep for no shelters would accept us. My foster Mom and Dad found me just 18 hours before I was going to put to sleep. I was THAT close to the rainbow bridge. 

I have been always dirty because no one really spend the time to look after me. Things gone pretty BAD when I was left tie out in the messy backyard on a very short leash. I'm really thankful to my Foster Mom and Dad. They even paid more than $80 for my vet bill and gave me a shower over in PETCO. I KNOW for sure that the previous people who kept me would NEVER be so nice to me. 

Although my life has been very sad & miserable, I'm still full of hope that I can find someone who would love me so much and treat me as his/ her best friend. I wish and pray that my foster mom & dad can keep me forever for good. I hope that they will change their mind. In the mean time, I'll just call them MOM & DAD because this is who they are to me.]]></content:encoded>
