Birthday: January 29th 2006 Likes: Snuggling, Belly Rubs, Chewing up stuff, Wrestling with her brothers Pet-Peeves: When her brothers won't wrestle with her Favorite Toy: Anything in reach Favorite Food: Anything in reach Favorite Walk: Across the kitchen table to retrieve toys or food Arrival Story: Katie was found in the same shelter as Max, and is almost the same age. She was rescued just like Max, only she was much healthier. Three weeks at the vet for observation and to clear up a case of ringworm, and she's home!
If you look at her photo, and at some of Ripley's, they could be twins. I'm afraid they may be each other's stunt doubles. Bio: Katie has been acclimated, and is now terrorizing the household. She loves wrestling, raiding trash cans, and climbing on the furniture. Forums Motto: Is that tasty? Let's chew and find out! The Groups I'm In: BoogerWillies, Dallas Doggies, Sparky's Pals, Spazzes, Wigglebutts are sooooooooo cute!!! I've Been On Dogster Since:
Mom bought me a whole bunch of new toys this week! They were hard to find, because they were on the far side of the dining room, and there was a gate in the way, but I found them! Dad says I'm part retriever. Mom said something I couldn't hear, but Dad said not to write it in my diary.
After I found the basket, it was all covered in plastic! I guess it was supposed to be a present, but what's the point of wrapping something if you can see through the wrapper? I think Mom is a bit challenged at times, but she's still nice.
Since there were so many toys, I didn't mind that Bubba, Flower and Murphy came to share them. We had fun. It was a bonding moment.
Mom seemed really annoyed when she found us with my gifts. I guess it was supposed to be a surprise, even though the see-through wrapping is just weird.
Mom told Dad he was going to have to pay for all my presents now, which doesn't make much sense, since he paid for them in the first place! Mom kept muttering "Sparky's Pals" and "gift basket" and "craft sale" and "disaster", but I have no idea what she's talking about.
Dad told me that Mom was planning to sell my presents to strangers this weekend! I really can't figure out if she likes me or not. Why would she sell my presents? Who would buy used presents, anyway?
Maybe Mom needs her own crate so she could take a nap and relax. I always seem to go in my crate when Mom or Dad gets stressed, and I always feel better afterwards.
Wow! It's been forever since I've posted here. Dad's been taking a lot of photos lately, so maybe he will update my page - I think it's getting a bit stale.
It's been really busy around here! Grandma came home from the hospital, but now she has different ladies staying here to help Mom and Dad take care of her. It's hard, because we have to learn a new person every few days, but on the bright side, it gives me someone new to bark at! They all sleep in the extra room by the kitchen, so I go say "Good morning!" when Dad takes me out in the morning. When they're not expecting me, they can jump pretty high! It's fun.
I've been here a whole year now - can you believe it? I sent my friends in Denton a note to say thanks again for rescuing me. If I can survive a year here, I think I'll stay.
Mom and Dad have been at the hospital a lot lately because Grandma isn't feeling well. This means we're all spending a lot of time in our crates, which is fine, because my crate is great for napping, but it does get boring after a while.
Dad feels bad about it, so he lets me out in the evening so we can spend time together. He made all the other dogs stay out, so it was just the two of us. Snuggling was nice, but to tell you the truth, it's much more fun to wrestle with Murphy and Bubba. I don't know how to tell Dad because I don't want to hurt his feelings, but he's not very good at wrestling.
