"I'm exhausted from Mardi Gras...but check out the '07 beads...and that's only a fraction of the chinky beads. The good stuff is hanging from the chandelier!"

Birthday: September 14th 2004 Likes: The Hornets & Saints; steer pizzles; bogarting the water dish; protecting the house with my deep, guy-dog bark; burying stuff in the backyard; going for car rides; getting new toys Pet-Peeves: I don't get bothered by much of anything lately except maybe having my ears messed with. Favorite Toy: The funky blue and yellow chew toy from Art's house; anything that SQUEAKS, squawks or talks! Hey, I'm still not done being a puppy, even though I'm a great big dog! Favorite Food: Chicken jerky, definitely, but boudin is pretty darn tasty. Gotta love them Cajuns!!! Great music - even better food! Favorite Walk: Pretty much anywhere that has interesting smells. Best Tricks: "Gimme Five"; "Wanna dance?" Arrival Story: I'm a Katrina rescue who, even after a year of looking and being posted all over the Internet, never found my original humans. These folks adopted me from a German Shepherd rescue group that had fostered me during my annus horriblus. Bio: I'm the best dog in the whole wide world! I went through American K9 training to learn to be a good doggie citizen. This summer, I think I'll go back for the advanced obedience training. Maybe after that I'll be in the mood to join Sugar and try some agility work. Forums Motto: Laissez les bons temps rouler! The Groups I'm In: ♥The Fabulous NOLA Walking Pack♥, German Shepherd Lovers of Louisiana, GSDs World, Krewe of Barkus on Dogster, Michael Vick Should Be Banned From The NFL
Background:
Fave Sports Teams: The Saints, LSU, Da Ragin' Cajuns, Ohio State, Duke (b-ball only) & the Big Easy Rollergirls
Secret Message: Thanks, Art and Uzi, for being so awesome!!! I Love You!!!

A weird thing that happened: My humans got a King Cake and could NOT find the baby. Ha HA - I HAD IT!!!! It fell off the bottom of the cake when they took it out of the plastic!
Favorite Songs: I'll Fly Away, Wharf Rat, Feel Like Funkin' it Up, Bosco Stomp
I've been pretty awful at keeping up with my doggie diary. Been too busy walking along the bayou, laying in the sun, and chasing toads in the backyard.
Anyway, Barkus was awesome. I was on the Royal Court and felt like a total rock star. I'll probably do it again next Mardi Gras, but I'll just be a normal dog - none of that royalty stuff. Maybe I'll bring Sugar along too, I don't know. People went crazy for my Dome Dog beads, and I got to sniff a lot of interesting people and dogs. What a pawty!
And, just like I predicted, we're not going back to Vegas. Mama never intended to go, and I think Daddy knew it and has submitted to his fate LOL! We're New Orleans all the way, and that's not going to change.
Hope all y'all are having a great summer - try to keep cool, and pray for good weather!
Come look for me walking in Barkus on Sunday. I have my very own Mardi Gras bead, with my handsome face on it. It's a beautiful polystone (no chinky beads for me!), with a great New Orleans theme. Hint: the Superdome and French Quarter figure prominently!
OK, so mama's getting all packed up and ready for the family's cross-country pilgrimage to New Orleans. The plan has always been to stay six months plus one day in Las Vegas and the rest of the year in New Orleans (it's a tax thing), but mama's planning to mutiny and refuse to go back to Vegas - ever.
We're both sick of the desert and of being allergic to everything in it. We're also sick of crappy chain restaurants, bad cover bands and unfriendly neighbors, and we're gonna tell it like it is.
I predict that this is going to get very interesting.
