		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Wow, it's been a couple of years since I let you all know what was going on with me. I'll be six years old tomorrow, and Belle just turned six and the pups turned two just before Christmas.

Mom's cousin stayed with us for over a year, until the apartments upstairs were finished and the codes guy said she and Sissy could move upstairs to theirs. Now there's room to walk around the sniff the place properly, and we don't have to stay over at Auntie's all day and all evening, we can go over with Mom to our own house. It's all four of us, me, Belle, Evie, and Wicket, since Sissy went away to college and left Evie and Wicket with Mom. I don't think Mom's real unhappy about this; she loves us and we make her happy. We all manage to squeeze onto the twin bed with Mom. We just wish she didn't have to get up while it's dark all but two days of the week. She says she wants to be something called 'retired', but I think she gets tired enough.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ It's been a long time since I told you all about my life and there are so many changes lately!
First of all, Mom brought home this tiny dog who needed a home, so we took her in. Her name is Belle, she's a Chinese Crested, and Mom says now she has her Beauty and her handsome Beast. I think she means I'm that last, but as long as she remembered the 'handsome' part, I guess it's okay! 

Next, we moved down to the Other Home! We don't go to the old home anymore after the weekend is over. Mom still makes sure I get to go on rides, though, cause she knows how I like to look at the cows on the sides of the road.  I still get to sleep on Mom's bed with her, so it's all good.

Rex didn't move with us.  Mom and Sissy took Rex for a ride and didn't come back with him, so I don't know where he went,  but I'm sort of glad he's gone, cause he was attacking me every chance he got.

Last, it turned out that Belle brought a big surprise, just before Christmas!  She had puppies, which no one was expecting, not even the ladies Mom got her from! They thought they'd separated her from the boy dog they had in time, then got him neutered.  Guess not, huh? She had three puppies, a hairless girl, and two powderpuff boys. Their names are Annie, Terror, and Wicket. Wicket is going to stay with Sissy, and we like to play together, even if he is half the size of my head! :)

I'm going to be four years old next week and Mom got me a new collar for my birthday. She says there will be more presents, but she got that one early. It's red rolled leather and she says I look really sharp in it!

Well, I think we're mostly caught up now. I'll try to be better at keeping up with my life!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I went with Mom over to my littersister, She-Ra's, house, so Mom could pup-sit She and her furbro, Denali, the Husky/Collie mix while their Mom and Dad went to see their furless son and his wife for the weekend.
Denali growled at me when I got too close to his couch, even though MY Mom was sitting on it and I just wanted to get up there with her, like I usually do. He's gotten a lot grouchier than when I used to go over with Mom as a puppy. Anyway, I growled back and next thing Mom knew, it was on!!  She happened to have a bottle of cold water in her hand and next thing we knew, she splashed us both in the face, which startled us so, we quit it and looked at her. She told us to knock it off and we both went and found a place to settle down. I don't know if I'll get to go over there with her next time, but if I know here, I will, cause she doesn't like to go places without me. She can just go in the computer room there and take me in with her, so Denali won't have anything to growl about.

Meanwhile, life is still good!!

wage and woofs,

This is just weird, but I like it. Just Mom, Sissy, and us pups and we have the run of the house, now. Mom still says we're going to go live at the Other Home, but we have to stay here a while, I guess.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Remember back a while ago, when Mom kept putting stuff in boxes and called it "moving"? Well, doesn't that mean we go live somewhere else?
Mom packed our stuff, or a lot of it, quite a while ago and took it somewhere else, but we're still living in that one room of the old house. I don't get it. We get in the car and go to the Other Home still, but we are supposed to stay there, eventually, aren't we? C'mon, Mom, what's up with that?  
She's not saying, but I can see she's pretty frustrated about something called "certifying for occupancy" What kind of pants? I don't know what an "occu-pants" are, but I wish my uncle and auntie would hurry up and get some, so we can go live in our new home!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My fur sister, Tessa, isn't in my room any more! I don't know where she could be, except that she didn't come home with us from the Other Home last weekend. Is it possible she stayed there with Lola, the Viszla mix that belongs to my uncle and auntie? Wait a minute, that means she got to move in there first!! No fair!!
And now, Sissy's dog, Sadie, is in my room with me. She's not calm like Tess, she's bouncy, so she takes up a lot of room, even though she's not a big dog like me. I'd say she weighs in around 40 lbs, about half what I weigh. She's skinny, but kind of cute, I guess. I'm getting used to having her in there, but she takes up too much room on Mom's bed, where I usually sleep. Oh, heck, it's too hot to sleep with Mom right now, anyhow......]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom took me with her to a medieval event last weekend! It was all kinds of fun! People were petting me and telling me what a handsome dog I am, and I got to meet horses and dogs and tiny little kittens that were there, too! 

We just walked around a lot, talking to people, and went in the feast hall and Mom shared her breakfast with me. Then we went out again, and I looked around and there was my best buddy, Simba, the Golden! Wow, I didn't know he was coming, too!! We got to play a little bit,  but his mom and my mom don't like us wrestling when we're on leashes, so we just said hi and went on our way.

It was getting really hot out, so Mom decided it was time to go, so we got back into our van and went back to the Other Home. I flaked out on the cool floor and Mom played on the computer til the other people came home. I just wanted to be close to Mom, so I waited til she went to sleep in the recline-chair she sleeps in there, and I really quietly climbed up and nestled into her arms and that's where I was when she woke up. She smiled and petted me and I gave her kisses and we went back to sleep for a while.  I love my Mom.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I don't get it. Mom keeps taking her stuff, my stuff and Tess's stuff and putting it in boxes. She even cleaned out the back corner of our room. And she didn't put anything back in. Tess doesn't seem too worried, but I've never seen Mom act like this before.
Worse yet, Sissy's doing it, too, with her stuff and Tykir's stuff. They call it 'moving'. I'm not sure what they mean. I hope it's fun. I like fun stuff, but this "moving" doesn't look like much fun, really. I'll let you know.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Well, Mom's been taking me with her when she disappears on weekends, so now I know where she goes. There's another place called Home! Right now, it's in kind of a half-finished state, but there's a Home next to it where my cousin, Lola, and Uncle Haakon and Aunt Eleanor live. They're great and they spoil me, and there's all kinds of room to play.
My best bud, Simba (he's a Golden Retriever) comes over there with his Mom and Dad, too, so we can wrestle and do the humpy dance and have all kinds of fun together!
Mom says there might be a big puppy play yard there soon and we can go out there and romp and that will be great!
She said something about when the other Home is finished, we'll be going to live there. That will be soooo cool!! Mom said something about a new brother or sister when we're there, too, but we'll have to see about that yet.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I've been tagged again! This time, it was my good buddy, Montecristo, the coolest Saint I know!

Here are the rules:
Because it’s Thanksgiving time, there is a change to the rules.

Each player needs to tell seven special things they are
thankful for. Tagged dogs must post the rules in their diary
and their 7 things. Then choose 7 pups to tag and list their
names. Let them know by pawmail or rosette that they have been
tagged and to read your diary for the instructions on how to
play.

The seven things I'm thankful for are:

1. That Mom took me away from that farm before that nasty man could take me and my brothers out and shoot us.
2. That I have a loving and cuddly sister like Tessa Fenris.
3. That Mom loves me sooooo much.
4. That Mom found out about raw food and switched us to it!
5. That I have Sissy to take care of me when Mom's not home.
6. That my mom cares enough to learn new stuff to keep me and Tess healthy.
7. That mom lets me sleep on the bed, and treats me like her little boy.

Let's see, who can I tag?

1. Darby
2. Tikka
3. Butters
4. Parker
5. Blue
6. Mia
7. Winnie]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Wheee! What an adventure I had yesterday! And Mom learned not to ignore signs that my equipment isn't in the best of repair, too! She saw that my tie-out rope was getting thin right up near the clip, but figured that letting me stay outside to play for a few minutes more would be okay. After all, it was a beautiful day and I was having fun.
When it started getting too warm out, she and Sissy came out to get the four of us (Tess was already in), and, lo and behold! there were only three dogs, and a broken rope end.
I was having a splendid time exploring along the river trail, through the meadow. What a fun time! It was a lovely day for exploring! I love to explore. Mom calls me "Mr. Curious", cause I have to check everything out. I followed that trail all the way down to the school, but I was starting to get tired out.
Lucky me, I got to the school, and there was Mom, waiting for me!  She called me, and I ran right over to her, and she put my Halti on my nose and walked me home, stopping at the ice cream place to get me a drink of water.
Wow, was I one tired dog! I slept most of the afternoon away. I'll have to figure out how to have more adventures. I don't mean to worry Mom (she told me how worried she was while she was looking for me), but she needs the exercise! BOL!!!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom went out early this morning with Sissy, and when she came home, she had a big carrier with her, with mewing noises coming out of it! When I looked into it, there were three little grey furry things, going "mew, mew, mew!" and one of them tried to scratch me on the nose!! Mom put them in a crate on top of my crate, and she let me stand up there to look at them. She says they're babies, like my furbrother, Greebo, the cat, but smaller. Their names are, so far, Artemis, Blue, and Neko, though Mom says Blue and Neko are kitten names and they haven't got their permanent names  yet.
I wonder if I'm going to get to play with them, or what?  Oh, well....for now, I think we'll all just curl up and take a nap. It's pretty warm today.

Good woofs to all, 
Siri]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I've been wanting to start a diary for some time, but the trick is to get Mama to sit down and type it, since that lack of opposable thumbs thing makes it hard for me to type it myself.
Mom and I are currently sort of living in one room at Sissy's house, cause if I go in, my brothers pitch a fit, but by Fall, we should be moving to our own place! I'm very excited about this, cause it means more places to explore, and I"m Mr. Curious. I must know everything!! And if Mom brings something new into our room, I have to sniff and approve it.
Well, I'll keep you all informed about my fascinating life later, cause I think I see Mom grabbing my long training leash, and that means Walkies in the field near the house! yay!]]></content:encoded>
