Arrival Story:
I was in a shelter scheduled for the big E and Mom decided to take me home! I don't know what the "big E" means but apparently it is pretty bad because she took me away from that place. Whew! I didn't like it. They didn't feed me enough because I nipped my Mom one day when she was putting my food down. I thought she was taking it away. So sorry Mom. But now I am not worried about stuff like that. In fact, many times I get too much food. But that's okay, I have her wrapped around me pinky claw. Hee hee. Shhh! Don't tell her I told you.

Bio:
I love being near the beach. Mom sometimes talks about snow and it sounds pretty cool.

Here are the rules:

Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged, need to post in their Diary the rules & their 7 pawsome facts. Then choose 7 dogs to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to bark them a pmail that they have been tagged and to read your Diary!!!

1. I have come close to death multiple times, I am hoping I have more than 9 lives (like my brother) because I am running out of them quickly.
2. I tried to eat an entire couch, once. That didn't go over too well.
3. I went to a dog park for the first time on Saturday.
4. I can take up an entire queen sized bed. Thank goodness Mom has a king. She and Raven only get 1/4 of the bed.
5. My Mom takes me to the beach almost everyweekend.
6. I try to jump on the counters to see what's up there.
7. I liek helping my Mom relandscaping the house.

We didn't get to do our usual beach trip today because Mom slept in a little late. She has been doing school work like there is no tomorrow. Some workers came to work on the house and then Mom and Dad took Raven and I swimming! It was so much fun. The water tastes a little bit different from the beach water. But that doesn't matter it is water. I love swimming but the water causes nasty yeast infections in my ears. Mom has taken me to a couple of vets and changed my food but nothing has helped yet. So she posted a thread on dogster and Buster suggested we try nzyme.com it has helped him, so it is worth a try! Why doesn't Raven have those problems?

 

Man, am I glad it is over!

Well, today is the first day I have been without my stainless steel staples. Boy do I feel better! Although Mom and the doc say I can't swim until next week, I CAN start going on my walks everyday again. But I am a bit disappointed because I am still restricted in my running and playing. Raven and I just want to let loose. Sometimes I get out there and run around while Mom and Dad aren't looking. If they saw me they would make me come in and rest. I am sick of resting!! Well, I guess I deserve it since they had to spend almost 2 thousand dollars on my emergency surgery and the all night care in the 24 Animal Care clinic. Next week after I can run and play I am going to bring that nice 24 care clinic doctor a thank you note, she really saved my life and Mom and Dad's sanity. Well, this dogster thing is pretty cool. I would love to meet some other cool pups on this crazy site. Drop me a line sometime.

P.S. Note missing cushions on the couch, yep those are gone too! SCORE!
