A Poem From Miss Isabella Blu

Birthday Poem for Hoss

You feed me when I'm hungry,
you keep water in my dish,
you let me sleep on anything,
or anyplace I wish.

You sometimes let me lick your hands,
or even lick your face,
despite the fact I've licked myself,
in every private place.

You taught me how to come when called,
you taught me how to sit,
you always let me go outside,
so I can take a . . . . stroll.

I've been with you through oh, so much,
through laughter and through tears,
I hope you live to be a hundred,
that's 700 in doggy years.

uh oh, I Been Tagged

My friends LuLu (522850) and Buddy, (357007) tagged me! I feel so loved! So for Valentine's Day, I wish that.



1. Mom would leave Dad alone and let him spoil me.

2. I wish when I'm begging she would look into my beautiful brown eyes, then she would spoil me too. (She can't resist)

3. I wish I could meet my sweet filly in person, then we could romp in the mountains we both love so much.

4. I pray all my pup friends stay healthy and whole this year.

5. I pray all of my pup friends mommys and daddys stay healthy, whole, and have all their needs met this year.

I love you all!

She Said Yes

She said yes, she said YES, SHE SAID YES!

I asked the sweetest filly in the whole world to marry me and she said yes. I've been so scared she was never going to give me an answer. You see on the 14th of December I gave her an engagement ring and she didn't say anything. I thought OH NO! she doesn't love me. But I guess with the hustle and bustle of the Holidays she just didn't realize what my intentions were. But now she knows and I'm the luckiest guy in the whole world!

She had me from the first hello. I never dreamed in my wildest dreams she could love me. I was always afraid of keeping her down. They say opposites attract, boy in this case it is so true.

She thinks she isn't the prettiest girl in the whole world but she is the only girl in the whole world to me. She is so tiny, and makes me feel like a knight in shining armor walking beside her. She is more precious than gold.

Her mama thinks our age difference might be a problem, but this little filly is so free spirited and such a fire ball I don't think a guy could have tamed her until now. I think she is actually my age right now, or I'm hers because I'm a big ol ambling oaf, and easy going, just able to keep up with her. She has more fire in her than a pup my brothers age.

She has so much love to give, and yet she is still very independent. That is very important for our relationship because I can't always be there to fawn over her. Because I do have a job to do to help my mama and dad. And
that is a good thing too because it will keep me from smothering her. That is something she would ever tolerate.

I've got to go and see her now, but I wanted the whole world to know how happy I am.

I Lost A Friend

My heart is sad, I lost a friend. We were different in many ways. She spoke Shih Tzuan, I speak Pomeranian. She was an older, white with grey lady, I'm a younger, brown with black guy. But love has no boundries. My heart is sad, I lost a friend.

My Filly's Coming

OMDogness, I am so excited I don't know rather I'm chasing my tail or biting it. My darling Little CoCo is coming to see me. She is wanting attention and lovin, and I'm just the pup to do it. Our moms are busy getting ready for this Christmas Season, so we are going to be left to our own antics.

I'm cleaning all my toys and dishes for her. I've been getting the kinks outta ol Trigger and Ginger, so we can go horseback riding. And of course the riding will be in the mountains because that is our favorite place to be. It's still pretty mild in Arizona so my sweety will be nice and warm. We will look Just like the rodeo King and Queen. Everyone will ooh and ahh at us and say what a handsome pair we are.

I'm even going to take her on a hay ride through the fields where you can pick all your own treats, then...then we'll go on a buggy ride were there's lots and lots of lights especially for the holidays. Shhh, but maybe I'll even sneak a little lick on her nose. Hope she doesn't box my ears.

I gotta splain to her tho how much her mama loves her. I know in her heart she knows it, but she's kinda feelin low right now. I know how she feels, cuz for Thanksgiving we went to family's house and mom even took the RV so we could be right there with them, but then they would leave me and Sassie in the RV and go in the house....for hours and hours. (Well it seemed like hours and hours, maybe it was only for an hour or two.) Anyway we didn't get all the attention we wanted. They thought just cuz they brought turkey, taters and punkin pie out we would be appeased, well I'll tell ya no pie, turkey or taters can take their place and I hope the sad face I gave spoke for itself.

Ok I gotta go and finish getting the horses brushed and the wagon hitched up.

Co Co's coming, Co Co's coming.....................

I've been Thanksgiving tagged

WooHoo! I've been Thanksgiving tagged by Harley, ya'll know Harley. EVERYONE knows Harley. Harley was one of my very first friends, so of course I'm thankful for him.

Here are the rules: Because it's Thanksgiving time, there is a change to the rules. Each player needs to tell seven things they are Thankful for. Tagged dogs must post the rules in their diary and their 7 things. Then choose 7 pups to tag and list their names. Let them know by pawmail or rosette that they have been tagged and to read your diary for the instructions on how to play.

1. First and most importantly, I'm thankful for my sister Sassie. She had a bout with cancer this year and is now declared well.

2. I'm thankful mom and dad are smiling again because my sis is well.

3. I'm thankful for ALL my Dogster friends, especially the ones who stood by our side during the waiting, surgery and healing process. Dogser is a place of caring, empathy and love.

4. I'm thankful I live in a country where I can be all that a dog can be. Loved, pampered and well cared for.

5. I'm thankful for Tucker my Aussie brother, he and I rough and tumble together. He is a wonderful brother. Even though he is 5 times my size he lets me waller him and throw him in our wrestling matches.

6. I'm thankful for my very bestest friend, Teddy Tortuga # 540272 from NYC, NY

7. And last but not least I'm thankful for my sweet filly Little CoCo Puff #500107. She is my love. She's outdoorsy, a tomboy and can keep up with my rough character. I once told her I'd love her if she was buck naked. Her typist was particularly busy and didn't have time to send me a response and I thought I'd lost her forever cuz of my rough edges. I'm not too debonoir like my metro friend Teddy.

Our family loves you all and prays that all of your Thanksgivings are wonderful.

I've Been Tagged

Hi everydoggy!

I've been tagged by my friend Leo! Now I must post seven random facts about myself, then tag seven others to do the same. Whoever is tagged posts the rules on their diary, then notifies 7 pals by rosette or p-mail. Have fun!

1. I lick my dads ears. I clean one then fuss at him til he turns his head for the other one.

2. After I clean dads ears, I head for mom's mouth and eyes. I don't like her ears.

3. I go outside and clean up my toys.

4. I sleep in the bathroom while mom is pottying or showering.

5. My sister Sassie doesn't like me but I was pretty worried about her when she was recently sick.

6. I'm never off leash when away from the house. I really mind good but never to be 100% trusted. There are too many things out there to get me.

7. I love to travel. It's a good thing cuz mom and dad drive a truck. It's ok with me cuz that means I'm with them almost 100% of my life. Right where I want to be.

Uh oh, I Been Tagged

Ok pupsters, I've been tagged, so I'm supposed to tell you something about me. If you wanna know some more about me you can read my diary tags from May and July.

1. Tucker, my Australian Sheppard adopted brother, is my best friend. We have each others backs.

2. The only time I will let mom or dad hold me is when mom is driving our truck, then I insist on being in my dads
arms so I can see out the window.

3. My second favorite toy is a ball, I retrieve as good as any lab.

4. I love the half and half out of the little coffee creamers.

5. My Birthday is February 19th. Please don't forget that.

6. I do not like water.

7. Little CoCo Puff is the love of my life.

She's Coming Home

Hello crying shoulder,

Do you know what day this is? It is the 30th of September! That means my sweetest, most wonderful, most beautiful, little filly will be home tomorrow. I didn't think this day was ever gonna get here. It has been very trying for my mom. Sometimes I would must mope. I would watch the screen to see if mom was going to see her. YES! she did. At least once a day mom would take me there so I could see her.

I have a big picnic basket fixed up and as soon as she gets settled back into her own home, yard and bed, I'm gonna ask her to ride my beautiful steed that McDuff got for me and take her on a picnic to Jasper National Park. I'm not sure if I will be able to eat or not. I think I will be so overwhelmed by her beauty I will just sit and gaze at her like a moonstruck puppy. I got her roses, cheese, popcorn and niller ice cream, cuz all that is her favorite.

K, shoulder I gotta go now and start getting everything ready, I want it to be perfect!

Thanks again for listening.
