Arrival Story:
Mom adopted me from an area animal shelter when I was just a wee little puppy. My foster mom just bragged about me and my sisters. When Mom walked in the door at the shelter, I was with my sisters in a play pen, taking a much needed nap after a morning of playing. My foster mom took my sisters and I out of the pen, and let Mom play with us. I knew this was my chance to shine and to act all cool. I would go over and sniff Mom and play with her a bit, and then run to the other side of the room and play with my sisters. Go back to Mom and play, and give her the look of "Can I go home with you?" She checked me out and one of my other sisters...so I pulled out all the stops, looking real cute and stuff. Mom made up her mind, but at first I couldn't tell who she selected. So in a desperate attempt, I grabbed her purse that was on the floor as to tell her "You can't leave here without me." She then helped my foster mom round up us pups back into the play pen. Though confused, I was confident I was going home with her. Mom and my foster mom were talking, and I still didn't know who she selected, me or my sister. Mom went over to the counter and filled out some paper work. Then the moment I knew her decision. She turned around and picked ME out of the play pen and said "You're going home with me Little Girl." My foster mom helped Mom carry me out to the car and my goodie bag from the shelter. That was the new beginning of my life with my Mom. I know we will have many adventures and stories for years to come.
Bio:
I've gotten over my thing with the backyard, but only like it in the daytime...then it is the front yard. I enjoy watching the cars go down the road, though I don't like motorcycles. Mom has decided to grow some flowers in containers and in a flower bed. So I get to assist her in approving of the plants, carefully sniffing all them. I love it when I am out with her when she is watering the plants. I just play in the water from the hose.
Mom and I made our first big road trip together a couple months after I came home. We went to this foreign place called Ohio. It was fun and interesting. Though I never got use to the whole "rest areas". I get too distracted by all the big trucks to do anything. Well apparently, the trip to Ohio is a must every year. We visit other family members. Mom's grandparents have a farm. This year when we visited I was standing near the cow pasture and this cow just started mooing at me and I barked back, it freaked me out a bit. Of course I LOVE it when we visit Grandma and Pooh-paw. It is often there that I play with my cousin, Miss Daisy. She's a cool dog. We chase each other all over the house, get our leashes all tangled while outside playing, and getting much love from our Pooh-Paw. Grandma even bought us matching "Going to Grandma's" backpacks. I like wearing mine. Look there's a picture of me with it on and ready to go to Grandma's.

Has it really been that long since I've posted? Dude, not cool. Mom has been hogging the computer so she can work on school stuff. But this summer I spent a lot of time at my grandparents so Mom could travel to weird places like Scotland, London and Paris. Since she's been home, we've been two peas in a pod. I follow her wherever she goes.
I love going to Starbucks with Mom. We go through the drive thru, though I think I can be good enough to enjoy the porch. But I don't mind since the folks at Starbucks and give me treats...YUMMY! I try to sneak a sip of Mom's frap-I can't say it-o, but I wasn't sneaky enough.
Mom is back at school, but I have proven to be a "big" girl and have free range of the house...no more crate for me. So far I have been a good girl.
Doorbell...gotta see who it is...

Mom came back from the store earlier this evening. She pulled out one of the bags and out came a yellow/black striped bee-outfit. She wanted me to be a bee for Halloween. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Plus she wants to post pictures. I have over a month to hide the bee outfit and maybe she'll forget about it.
Off to bed...I'm tuckered out.

Well Mom, Poopaw and Mamaw, and I just got back from Ohio. It was a fun, yet exhausting trip. I love riding in the SUV up. I could stand with my front legs on the console and my back legs on the back seat and get the best of the A/C. Poopaw's SUV has A/C vents in the back off of the console, so I got air in my face and my belly...ahh. It was weird having Mom sit next to me, but I enjoyed our snuggle time. We arrived to Poopaw's mom's house, she is always the friendliest to me. So we split our time there and with Mamaw's parent's farm. I am still not sure about those cows, but I am sure about Mamaw's parent's dog, Bo-Bo. I don't like him. He kept sniffing me and aggrevating me the entire time I was there. Plus he wouldn't share any of his toys with me. Hmmmph! Overall I am not going to complain. I got much loving from everyone, once I got use to so many people. And Mom kept sneaking me really good food (pot roast, hamburger, meatloaf, and chicken tenders). What can I say I am one spoiled pup! It was great to get back to Poopaw Mamaw's house because Miss Daisy was there waiting to play with me. Poopaw says Miss Daisy and I are like "two peas in a pod." Well I am off, Mom is sneaking upstairs...I wonder if I can get a treat from her...LOL!
