Arrival Story:
Well, I was an owner surrender at the local Human Society and I hadn't been there long when my new parents came and saw me. Actually, I saw my mom and Grandma the day before I met my Dad. Mom and Grandma just came in to have a "look see" when they saw me. I guess Mom couldn't forget about me and took Dad to come see me the next day. I was very sweet toward them, but also showed that I loved other animals by playing with my penmate, Flora. (Flora got adopted 1 day before me! Isn't that great?) I knew that Dad and Mom weren't sure about getting a dog and so when they took me out I acted cool and calm, but showed them that I was FULL of love too. They were totally hooked on me and asked to adopt me. BUT, another family had already put a hold on me and had gone away for the weekend. They were to come get me on Tuesday and so Mom and Dad sweated it out for the next 2 days until they learned that I could be adopted by them. Grandma and Mom came to see me every day I was in the pound to make sure I knew them when they broke me out! They are just the best family!!!
Adopt older animals! We make great pets!!!

I have taken up writing a diary in memory of my beloved sister, Camilla, who passed from this earth on the 27th of Oct, 2006. I loved her dearly. It is for her that I write. I also write to document the growth of my non-furry brother, Jack, who was born the 25th of Oct, 2006. The clan has grown bigger and I am vigilant in protecting the clan.

Upon my arrival back in from a great amount of sunbathing this afternoon, I found an interesting article for all of you dog lovers out there. With scientific evidence, you can now tell if your puppy loves you or not by watching his/her tail! Of course, everyone knew that, but now it's also shown that wagging to one side of the dog's body means something different than the other side.
Cool, huh?
Check out the NY Times article:
If You Want to Know if Spot Loves You So, It’s in His Tail
Of course, I like to mess my humans up by changing things now and then!
That's about it. I've gotta go back to work protecting the house now since my humans are at work and Jack-Jack's at day care.
*SIGH*
Hope they are home soon!

I was so surprised to find out that I was chosen as Diary of the Day last Saturday. I didn't even know this until this morning for I haven't had time to check my paw mail!!
You know, it's hard raising a baby brother!! I seem to have no time for anything.
Thank you for Dogster for choosing me and for all the dogs that wrote me. I appreciate it greatly.
Things have really changed in my life lately. I have gone back to having the house to myself during the day for Jack-Jack has started day care. I can't say that I am thrilled with this idea. I would rather he was at home for me to look after him, but Mom and Dad say I am too young for that responsibility - plus, it doesn't help that I don't have a thumb.
I am very happy that he is happy, though. His 1st day went well, I am told. He did cry when other children cried, but he has never heard that sound before and that response is natural. He ate well, slept well, and was my happy little Jack-Jack.
When he got home I was sure to lick him ALL over to make sure he knew I missed him.
Today is he is 6 months old and so I plan on doing that to him again!!!
SSLLOOOBBBEEERRRR coming your way!
Hogs quarantined after eating tainted pet food> The saga continues with the bad pet food. Instead of getting rid of the tainted food, it looks like it was sent to pig farmers who may have fed it to their hogs. These hogs were slaughtered and are now becoming food for humans.
Isn't this just lovely?
No one is 100% sure, so they are doing tests on the hogs to see if they did, in fact, eat the tainted food.
Scary!
*sigh*
I am now going to go wait for all of my humans to return home to me. I think I will go sunbath for awhile outside. It's so nice to be able to go in and out as I please. They really are rather good to me - God bless 'em.
Ciao my dear canine friends,

I would like to take a moment to put it out in cyberspace that my family and my thoughts are with those who lost loved ones in the senseless murders that occurred earlier in the week at Virigina Tech.
VT is my Dad's alma mater, so this one really hit home for him. Luckily, none of Dad's fraternity members were hurt in this incident.
It is a very scary thing. This could happen anywhere at any time.
It's so sad, too. So many lives - young ones too - taken far before their time.
The Victims is an interactive report on each one of the VT victims.
*sigh*
