Daycare is good!!

I got to go my first day of doggie daycare the other day. Mama says I need an outlet for my extra energy. She says I need to quite destroying all of the pillows and comforters on their bed. I am not allowed in the bedroom anymore without their supervison.

I wasn't really quite sure what to make of it and was not at all thrilled that Mama just left me there. "What is she thinking" I thought. I was pretty scared and nervous at first. They almost called my Mama to tell her I was not enjoying myself and that she should come and get me, and just as my trainer went in to call my Mama I finally started playing with a couple of little girl dogs. My Mama called in the afternoon during my nap and the trainer told her I was doing just fine and actually enjoying myself, which was completely true. When my Papa came to pick me up I was happy to see him but not at all ready to go home, I just wanted to keep PLAYING. What a great place daycare is. I can't beleive I just get to hang out and play, ALL DAY. I love it. Although I didn't have much energy when I got home and just lounged on the couch all evening, I still can't wait to go back. I let you know how my second time goes.

So proud of my brother Harley Joe!!

Hi all!! I just wanted to make sure you all heard the great news about my brother earning his CGC this past weekend. I am so super proud of him. Harley is such a great role model for me!! I really look up to him!! Mama says I get to take classes next and work towards my CGC and TDI, just like Harley!! YAY!! I also wanted to let you all know that I got to be in my first booth with Wisconsin Doberman Rescue this past weekend as well. I did great!! Even if I do say so myself. It was great fun, everyone came out just to pet me and tell me how cute I am, what a great gig!! Harley was there too. We showed everyone we met how great and loving Dobermans are. We had people tell us that they were surprised that they weren't fearful being around and petting us. I don't know why they would be afraid, Dobermans are GREAT!!! Harley kissed all of their faces and I nuzzled everyone within leash reach. I met some really great dogs and super friendly people. I can't wait until I get to do it again. Maybe I will run into some of you local paws next time. Well enough about me, drop me a p-mail and let me know how you are all doing. Take care!!

Clean bill of health!!

Well its me again. Today I got a clean bill of health from my doctor. No more cone head for me!!! Yay!!! I didn't need to have surgery or anything. Just some patience, medicine, cone, and lots and lots of TLC from my mama and papa. So the drama is over, now I don't know what I should tell you all about. How about how darn cold it is here. I have to wear booties every time I go outside. It's kind of a pain, and papa laughs at me everytime I go out with them on. He says I look like a horse walking with my feet so high. I tell ya though, my tootsies are toasty!! Mama says she going to be getting us some new coats too. Can't wait!!! Well off to play with Harley. Hope all is well with all of you!!
