It's my Birthday!

Today (on December the 8th) I turn 8 years old! The puppy says I am ancient, but not really, compared to some of the doggies here I am still just a pup!

Mommy gave a special breakfast (pictures will be up soon!) and took a special birthday picture. Then she took me on a walk, all by myself! None of the other doggies (even the border collie!) got to come! I also got a bone just for me AND a new doggie toy! Mommy really knows how to make my day!

Today, the day I turned 8 years old, Mommy made me feel like a little puppy again. I ran and played and romped around like a crazy dog (that proves that your still a puppy!). Mommy made me so happy on my special day, I hope all the other doggies (116 of them so far!) that have a birthday today are as happy as I am, and I give them all a big WOOF and tail wag to wish them:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

Another hair cut

I got another hair cut. Because Mommy doesn't have a good clipper my fuzz gets cut off mostly with scissors. Now I am naked....and its the middle of Fall! I do have SEVERAL fleece jackets so I don't become an icecube. I don't like getting all my fur/hair cut off, its just not that fun. One time I had really long hair but then came summer and off it went!

I get really frisky and happy right after a hair cut. Mom says its like I am a puppy again. Each time she gives me a slightly different clip. This time, my ears are cut in the shape of a normal ear but the hair from the base of my ear is left long. it gives me kind of a dashund look. Also my foot fuzz is long. It looks really funny when I walk and even funnier when I run! My tail is also left long otherwise it would be like a whip and we don't want that!

Well, I better go get on a jacket so I don't freeze, the computer is keeping me warm but Mommy wants it back now.

cold kisses and woofs,
Poppy-corn

A new sister came home!

A few months ago, my Mommy brought home another sister for me. I had been through this all before but this time seemed very different. When they brought home Peanut, she looked a lot like I did as a puppy but this new, thing, is a lot bigger.

She is so active and always wants to play. At first she would do her business in the HOUSE! She didn't have very good manners so I had to help her with that. She is just always going going going. Mommy has been giving me some extra attention so I don't feel left out. This is a good thing.

Peanut plays with the puppy (they call her a Border Collie) but I prefer to sit on the couch and watch. Sometimes they say that the puppy (aka Dazzle) brings out the puppy in me, I don't think so. She is so BIG and CLUMSY. I was never like that-was I?

Its not so bad now that she is a little older but I still like to remember the times when it was just me and Peanut.

There is a lot to be done with the new thing in the house. she still needs some training, training to leave me alone! My family keeps saying that I will learn to love her like I do Peanut, YEAH RIGHT!
