I Like it Ruff!

Some New Videos of Me and Charlie

Today I saw my new BFF4ever, Charlie. We scrapped it UP in Esprit Park while the bipeds quoffed their thirsts with Hard Ciders Charlie's humans brought.

To bad my dad forgot to reset the white balance on his camera. Oh we look so blueeee

See us star in Romper Room and Chill Session

The tall biped just posted this from a hike we did up San Bruno Mtn.

I'm on the TV!!!

Last night they aired a segment on ABC World News about where I work and they got me leaving a meeting!

Really!

One Year Is Fur-Ever!

Today is my one year anni-fur-sary in my forever home. Or so my people keep telling me. I don't know what they're talking about. I have always been here, having fun and giving kisses. Would you like a kiss? Anyway, I got some cookies for breakfast which were awesome. I like to eat my cookies in the hallway (after dancing around them) or on the chair where I can get a lot of crumbs everywhere and then spend about 10 minutes licking them up.

Last night my people had Human Play Time and I was not invited. But! I got two lamb bones! Oh my dog! They wanted me to stay out of their way and I did. I even slept on my little bed most of the night. But I was in their bed by morning with kisses so they didn't feel alone.

Would you like another kiss?

It's hard out there for a pup

One park is flooded and the other park is too muddy. I don't think I'll ever play again. I miss my dog pals! And also it is cold in here. Guess I'll head back to the heater.

They Call Me Gravyhead

Let me start off by saying that Thanksgiving is the greatest day! I love it, wow! So many laps to sit on, so many people feeding me this thing called TURKEY. Auntie Tina was cooking in the kitchen and I helped. One of the pans was dripping so I got fresh gravy! But it dripped on me too. I got most of it off but can't reach the spot on the back of my neck and head, can you?

Lucky 13

Today at Pet Food Express I went on the scale and I weigh 13 lbs! That means I have gained more than 9 lbs. since I came home in February. I am huge.

Why Do People Think I'm A Boy?

What is up with the humans on the sidewalk thinking I am a boy dog? They are all "What a cute dog!" and then some follow up with "What's his name?" While it is widely acknowledged that I am a cute dog I do not understand this "his" business. My name is Moxie and I am a girl!

Ted & Molly are always telling me I'm a "good girl." All the dogs know I'm a lady. Seriously what is going on with humans?

Yay, Filet!

Today Molly put some of her filet in a kong for me. It took maybe an hour of hard, grueling, kong-in-paws work to get that piece out and eat it all up. Molly said it's called filet mignon and that I'm the luckiest dog in the world. Totally! I have to say that filet mignon is as good as vienna sausage or chicken liver. Well I should get back to licking all the spots on the floor where the kong may have maybe touched.

Pt. Reyes Station, arrroooooo!

Molly & I went to Annie's Garden Cottage in Pt. Reyes Station, Tomales Bay, Marin County California. Do you know that place? It is fun! There is a big garden and a yard and I got to hop over lots of plants. But um, roses? They have thorns. Ow! Who knew.

We went with Candace and Clara Mae. She is my new BFF. Have you heard about these smaller, more energetic people? You should get one. Seriously. She chased me around and fed me goldfish crackers under the table. She did things that Molly will not do on account of something called 'discipline.' Also these smaller people are better for stretching on, real low to the ground. She could really keep up, that Clara Mae. If she comes over soon I will have to give her a lot of licks, she rules.

Girls' Week

Seems like it's just me & Molly this week. We are having a good time! Monday night we went to Polly's and I hung out with Spalding. He is a cool cat! We went tradesies -- he ate half of my dinner and I ate half of his breakfast. Cat food is really good and cats are nice too, I hope we almost-play again soon. I like where he lives, it is huge and I can race around.

Plus I got to see my friend Manju, she lives across the barking lot from Spalding. She is my homegirl, dang! We have so much fun playing -- woooo!! -- it wears me out. I would've slept all the way through but trains passed in the night and I howled at them which was awesome but Molly was not so into it.

In conclusion, four paws up for my trip to Oakland.

I've Got Fish Breath, Yes I Do...

I've got fish breath, how 'bout you?

P-a-r-k With The B-a-l-l

Today is Molly's birthday. I guess that means we go to Dolores Park? I love it there! There were lots of people to pet me and I got to run around. One man was taking a nap on the ground but BAM! I ran right over him and he woke up. He thought I was funny. Also I met Marc & Monique who are very nice. I'm still pretending not to like the car because Molly feeds me chicken liver everytime I go in there. I almost blew my cover today when I jumped in the car on my own. Need to remember to freak out a bit first.

I Don't Think I Need Any More Training

Today we went back to Shamrock Ranch for a training check-in with Lisa. I chilled out once I realized they weren't leaving me at the kennel. I haven't been doing everything perfectly with Molly & Ted, things like "stay" and "down." I am a Chihuahua-terrier mix. Stubborn is how I roll. Turns out I need to practice my new moves even more and that sucks because I hate homework.

They also made me practice stuff IN THE CAR. Geez, that was the worst. I like going places but I hate the car!! Cars stress me out. I don't even like riding on someone's lap. I'd rather walk to all the cool places, like the office or Marin County.

Check Out My New Moves

I just got back from my two-week vacation at the Shamrock Ranch Kennels. It was pawsome. I learned a bunch of new stuff, like "stay" and "down." The trainer said I am smart! I also got this fancy necklace that jangles, it's supposed to keep me from pulling on the leash. Best part was I got to play with dogs. I was the fastest! Me and my short legs, can you believe it? And then my people came to get me yesterday and man, was I excited. I even found my voice and made some happy sounds. I'm glad to be home with Molly & Ted.

Ta-Dah!

Today Molly wasn't picking me up and putting me on the couch. So I hopped up there myself. I rule.

I'm Getting On Molly's Nerves Today! Yay!

It's raining outside. I don't like the rain because my feet get wet and then I can't pee. Molly made me stay outside for 30 minutes but like I said, when it rains I don't pour. Finally back inside I played with my lamb bone for a while. Molly won't let me on the couch because she thinks I may pee. She has a point but I think I should get up there anyway. So I keep asking and asking and still no dice. I think I'm wearing her down when she directs me to the kitchen and a peanut-butter stuffed kong. Then she closed the door behind me because whatever peanut butter is good. And I just peed on the floor in here. Life is good.

Moxie's Clubhouse, No Human's Allowed!

Today my Molly did a little shopping for me. Because I was a naughty dog and peed on the couch she had to get something called Odor Mute to snuff out the stink so I hopefully don't pee there again. Whatever. In more important news, she bought me a new bed! It is pink and I dragged it around the house until I found a good spot for it. But the piece de resistance was the "bone" she gave me. It's made entirely out of salmon skins and it stinks real good. Wow! I took it back to my clubhouse, which is behind the sofa. That's where I take all the good stuff like paper towels and Kleenex. Moxie's clubhouse, no humans allowed!

And they're back!

I'm not sure what the deal is but I'm back home with Molly & Ted. I was a chick magnet for Steven over the weekend and then me and my BFF Ripley had a sleepover, real fun stuff. Now that I'm back home I can show off my new skill: going up the stairs. Molly wants to know how I grew so much in five days. My tummy turned a different, darker color too.

Groundscore!

Molly was cleaning the dishes and dropped a piece of scrambled egg on the floor. Good thing I always stand right behind her in the kitchen because I scooped it up before she could. Oh my dog, eggs are tail-waggingly good! More eggs!

Today ruled!

I got to party and sleep and everything!
