pause for paws!

my place

you know, I do love my crate at home, but even more than that, I love sleeping on my mamma's big comfy feather bed. That is how it is for me and blogs. While this blog is pretty fun, writing in mamma's blog is just funner, more fun?

anyhoooo...

The humans are doing something called packing because we're going home to New Orleans. Packing is where the humans pick up all their stuff like clothes, and dishes and stuff and they put them in big bins. My favorite thing to do is to take them out again once the humans turn their backs.

This really pisses them off, but it also makes them laugh, although they try not to show it.

I am told that we are getting a yard in our new house in New Orleans and I am very happy because this apartment business is for cats, or some other inferior life form

I will also get to take mamma to work every day again and see all her favorite clients.

alright I've talked enough, I need to go see if I can find some more boxes to unpack

who am I, what is this?

Hi, we're new at this. Although I and my family have had dogster entries on here for a long, long time, I decided that mamma has a blog that I'd like one too... So here I am... Who am I exactly, you may well be asking yourself. My name is Mill'E said like Millie. I live with my mamma Rox'E said like Roxie, yes she gave me that stupid spelling because she wanted our names to be the same... I live with mamma's husband, our "big pops" He is very tall, and very much fun and very easy to trick into doing just about whatever I want. I am three. I am a golden retriever and I am a service dog. This means that my mamma, and my bigpops too, for that matter, have parts of their body that don't work so good. My mamma has broken eyes and ears that don't work and sometimes she can't walk too good, and she can't pick stuff up, either.
That is a lot of work for one golden doggus to do, but I don't mind! I used to be in a place called rescue, because nobody wanted me. I was very sad because there was nothing for me to do, and nobody to call my very own. My mamma came one day and was looking for a smart doggus to help her out. I proved to her how smart I was so she took me right on home and I made her fall right in love with me.
I've been here for two years. I have 2 sisters and a brother. My oldest sister is Bristol. She is almost eight and she used to be mamma's workin doggus but she got something called degenerative joint disease and now she can't do it all the time any more. So her job is to be queen of the house. She gets everything first, fed first, gets treats and scratches first and gets to go for walks first. She is the queen, and some day I will be the queen, so Bristol says I'm queen-in-training. I love Sister Bristol a whole lot, but she can sometimes be a know-it-all.
Then there is sister Grace Louise, aka Gracy aka the cheez.
She is something called a border collie, and she is weird. She also works for mamma when I get sick or when my mamma thinks I need chill out time... I never need chill out time, mamma is just silly sometimes. Gracy likes to hide shoes, as I said, so one of my jobs is to find them.
She can howl and doesn't really like to play with toys, and I think that is like... just... weird...
but I love her anyway. She loves Bristol and when I work for mamma it's her job to stay home with Bristol and keep her company.
and she doesn't want to be queen and she doesn't mind if I'm queen-in-training and will be queen some day.
All of us girls together, Mill'E, Gracy and Bristol, are collectively known as "the kitchen bitches."
This is because we like to hang out with our mamma while she is in the kitchen. She cooks there, eats there, studies there and the fridge is there! I also help her there if she drops something or whatever.

We did have a brother Roamy who was on here at dogster with us, but he didn't like working as a guide dog so he had to find another home, because he got too sad staying home alone. So now bigpops has a new working doggus in training. He's only in training because he doesn't know everything like I do yet. He is real big, and we like to have barking contests.
He might be the youngest, but I'm still the baby!! hahahaha!

He is still learning and has almost lived with us for a year.
He gets bossed around alot.
Collectively, us 4dogguses are known as the pawpower pack.

We did live in New Orleans, but a while ago, we all had to leave and we didn't get to say good bye to anyone. It was so sad and our mamma and bigpops were so worried. We're now in a place called Memphis.
Mamma doesn't like it much and we miss our yard. We live in something called apartment. it's kind of like a kennel for 2foots, with one big building with loads of little places to live.
I want a yard.
but I'm being a good brave girl for my mamma and doing my best.

My mamma can't go back to new orleans and her job, so she's gone back to school!
She is studying herbal medicine and canine massage therapy. So we all get massages, and unfortunately, when we're sick, she makes us nasty herbal remedies which taste icky.
We dogs eat a raw diet, which is different I guess than what most dogs eat, mamma says, but I've always eaten it since I was a pup so I don't really know.

Anyway, if you want to visit mamma's blog it's
www.pawpower.diary-x.com

she sometimes uses some bad words, so don't say I didn't tell ya.
If I used those same bad words she'd make me... potty in the rain for sure!
unfair!

This blog is only listed on my page but it's for all of us pawpower dogguses, but I'll be doing most of the writing because I have the biggest mouth!

OK, gotta run Bristol wants to play tug-o-war!
