My first entry

Well, Mom thinks it's neat for me to start writing a diary, so here I am. I'm dictating, she's typing. I've been here in San Francisco for about 5 weeks, and it's a pretty cool place. Mom's got a neat loft, though I slip a lot on the hardwood floors, and the metal stairs have scared both of us a few times, but I'm getting around fine now!

She let's me sleep in bed with her most nights, which I LOVE. But, I do have a really neat big ol' dane sized crate with a fleece pad and tons of toys and a fan. Mom and her friends say I'm spoiled, but it seems just natural to me. Mom got me a sparkly pink collar too. It makes lots of people think I'm a girl, but she said that no one will tease me because I'm gonna be bigger than all the other dogs.

She has me in puppy socialization and puppy kindergarten too, and I'm learning to sit, and to walk well on a leash. I love other dogs too! I can play rough and hard with the big ones, and light and gentle with the tiny and shy ones. I don't care as long as they play with me! We also take walks every day, and she takes me to parks a lot. We get stopped a lot, and people pet me and seem to like me a whole lot, which is pretty cool, because I like getting pets and treats and attention. Mom says to get used to it, because as I get bigger, they'll pay even more attention to me!

I have had to go to the vet a few times, once for growing pains and once for a urinary tract infection. It's not great, but the vet is nice and gives me treats, and I always feel better soon after! Now, if I could just get the hang of this potty training business. It's hard, and I know mom gets frustrated, and sometimes loses her patience. But, we're working with her and she's getting a lot better!

Ok, time to go shopping at the furniture store. I get to go everywhere! Yay!
