Arrival Story:
Gladys was taken in as a stray by her "Uncle" Tim about a year and a half ago. Tim was recently called into the priesthood, so Gladys needed a new home. A mutual friend got me in touch with Tim, and on August 10, 2006 I was lucky enough to become her new owner. We are only guessing on her birthday and age.

Bio:
Gladys has overcome most of her submissiveness in the 6 months I have had her. She used to flop on her back in front of strangers and even had some submissive urination. That has stopped. She has gained a lot of confidence and will go up to anyone... which scares her mom! Now we need to work on discernment of people.

Forums Motto:
When in doubt, flop over

Late last night I reminded mom that we had been together 6 months! We agreed that it's been the best 6 months of our lives. I figured this was a special occasion, so I begged mom to let me on-line and write about it.

I continue to gain confidence, according to mom. She is a bit more on her toes, though, because I have been getting into things I shouldn't be (i.e. poinsettia leaves, entire packages of treats, etc). I guess I'm getting more comfortable in my home. I've also taken to jumping up on mommy's bed and cuddling. I guess she doesn't mind, cause she doesn't kick me out. I haven't yet slept an entire night there. I just go up when it's bedtime and time to get up. I'm last on her mind at night and the first thing she sees in the morning. :)

Over the New Year holiday, I spent time at nana and papi's. That's my papi in one of my pictures. They took me for walks behind their apt. at Bull Creek in Austin. They just bought a new place, so mom and I will have to go scope it out soon. I hear they have a little backyard! That's exciting. For Spring Break, I'll be staying with them again while mommy takes a trip. Both of us are looking forward to a vacation

I gotta let mom have the computer back. She has homework to do. I'll be ready when she graduates.... maybe she won't be hogging the computer all the time.


I love the dog park!

Not only did I get to go to the dog park Saturday, but I got to go TODAY too! Mom spoils me :) We had so much fun both days. Mom actually made friends too! I am getting a bit more social as time goes on, though I never let mom out of sight.

Oh, and on Friday, mom and I met nana, papi and nana's parents in Fredericksburg for lunch. It was fun to get away. I got my picture taken by a photographer who contracts with Texas Highways magazine. He said I was the perfect color and a beautiful dog for the picture. Maybe I'll be in it next year sometime, huh?!?!? That would be super cool. Mom was really excited.


It's been awhile...

Whew, what a crazy couple of weeks! Let's see, last time I was talking about the grandparents. Well, we drove a really long time and met everyone. Of course, they all LOVED me! Mom was so proud, even though I got more excited than usual and didn't listen real well the whole time. We thought we were done traveling but.....

The day after we got back, mom got a phone call and was really upset. She packed us up in rapid time and we headed to pick up Papi. He said he wanted me to go, so I was in the car again. We headed out west again. Mommy and Papi were talking about how grandpa was really sick in the hospital. I was thinking, "but we just saw him yesterday?!?!?" I HAD to see him. But the hospital didn't allow me in. That's okay, because mom played with me at a park and even though grandpa wasn't conscious at the time, mom told him I was outside. Luckily, grandpa started to recover, and mommy told me he asked about ME! He said he couldn't wait to see me again.

Last weekend mommy didn't want to do her homework, so we went to the doggie park again. No mean policemen this time! :) We also went for lots of long walks because the weather was so nice.

I think that about updates my life. I'm just about ready for another trip. Mom said Thanksgiving is next week. She doesn't know yet where she's taking me, but as long as I go, I don't care!

Paws out.

Gladys
