Arrival Story:
After the passing of Rhys I was thinking about getting another dog but I wasn't sure I was ready. A friend of a friend had a mixed breed female that recently had puppies. I agreed to go look at the puppies but said "I'm not ready for a new puppy just yet". When I got there I saw a number of primarily black puppies that were all playing with each other and showed no interest in any human companionship. Then a big bellied, little yellow guy came over and put himself right at my feet. When he looked up at me it was "love at first sight". He's been with me ever since and continues to brighten up my days.

Bio:
I love my family and try my best to be a good boy eventhough I always seem to be getting "hurt" some how. I'm always managing to get scrapes from chasing squirrels up trees in the back yard or boo-boos from playing to rough with Kea. Mom says I have a dueling scar from the time I developed an auricular hematoma that had to be drained. While I healed just fine, my left ear is now floppy at the top and doesn't want to stand up any more. I worry about Yoda when she doesn't move as fast as she once did (of course she's at least 16, if not older) and try to run to her aid when I hear her call. I just love attention and every morning I sit on Mom's lap when she is having her coffee and watching the early news.

The Trials and Tribulations of Darius


Tasty New Food

So Mom went and got me some new food. It is for sensitive stomachs and it has different stuff compared to my other food. She's gonna see how I do with this cuz I was starting to get toooo skinny. The other food tastes yucky but this new food is bowl licking good. I'm hoping that she gives me more than usual. Kea's jealous cuz she doesn't get to snarf up any of my left overs anymore.

Woofs,

Darius

Oooh, Mom, Kea & I just came in from playing outside. It was so much fun to run and chase Kea with Mom's help. Kea isn't nearly as rough when Mom's there. When we finished I just laid down on the grass and scratched my back!!

I'm such a lucky guy to have such a great family. We're getting ready to go for a ride in the car next. I wonder what Mom's got up her sleeve??

Woofs,

Darius


OMD, I'm a Featured Diary

BOL, when mom checked messages for me this morning she saw a note from Dogster and told me that my diary was gonna be one of today's features. WOW!!!!!

Life in WV is still wonderful and "almost heaven" as the song goes. Kea and I are finally getting the hang of the new invisible fence. I don't really like the collar that I have to wear cuz it isn't very stylish, but then again I get to go all around the house. I also have so much more room to run. Mom's saying that next year we'll either extend the invisible fence or she'll have Dan, the contractor that built our deck, put up a fence around a part of the lot. She says 3.5 acres is too much to fence, but maybe she'll go for 2 acres. I can only imagine how much fun Kea and I would have running around in all that space!

I'm thinkin today is gonna be a nice lazy day. Mom's getting ready to make her coffee and come out on the deck with Kea and I. That way we get to play and Mom gets to enjoy the fresh air, cool weather, and listen to all the noises in the quiet.

Woofs,

Darius
