Just read the best book

Today we just finished one of the best books we have ever read. It wasn't some fancy hoity toity novel or some ancient piece of historical writting. No this book is entitled Marley and me and is by author John Grogan. And it is all about his life with his zany dog marley. It is about the real ups and downs and side splitting laughter that living with a wonderful canine companion in your life can bring. You litterally meet Marley as a brand new pup and travel through his entire life wittnessing all his hair brained comical adventures. I love that this book is written the way we all talk. There aren't big flowery words like hither and thither and it isn't condacending as if the writer is just so much better then you or I. No it is just a guy, sharing the great stories of his dogs life. It made for a fun and easy read. The book is Laugh out loud funny and at times it's heartacheingly sad. But it is no doubt a wonderful book worth reading. (And no I am in no way affiliated with the author or publisher) just really enjoyed it. I wanted to share about it here in the hopes that other dog lovers / book lovers will read this, as I have often wondered "what good dog books are there our there". And of course I am not speaking of old yeller or where the red fern growns. But sometimes it is nice to read a piece of work just to enjoy the subject matter. And while there are many trainers guids and manuals on how to be the "alpha dog" or how to teach your puppy not to poop on ther persian rugh, there aren't very many books that say "hey I have a dog , a big dumb dog, who eats rock and poops on ther persian rug. And it's ok, and it's down right funny.And your not alone, and your not a failure as a dog owner or lover." And that's what this book does. It celebrates the life of a zany golden retriver who eats anything he can find from q tips to little green army men, jumps on strangers, drools on everything but all in all... Was a great dog. So pick it up at your local walmart, or borders, or barns and nobel or even at amazon dot com. I promise it will bring a smile to your face and you wont be sorry you read it.

The Great chocolate debacle

So it all started on December 27 in the year 2007, it was a bright and sunny day though cold in Oklahoma. We had just experianced this thing called Christmas upon which for some unknown reason to us, the humans shower us with gifts and goodies, as well as eachother. Things had calmed down a bit and we had spent a couple of peaceful days back at our house, playing and snoozing and doing our normal puggy things, when a bit of snarfelling and snorting uncoverd the most glorious of all glorious treasures. There in the human brothers bedroom was a gleaming bag of CHOCOLATE!!! And Not just one SIX! YES SIX! 3 Big bags of M @ M's and 3 Big bags of Hershey kisses. This was too wonderful! How could the children leave this unguarded I had no idea, instead of diving in immediatley I went and got Widget so he could help me revell in my discovery. While the children were watching t.v. Widget and I helped ourselves to the candy. And we ate, and we ate and we ate. And then we started to feel funny, and then we started to feel bad, and then we started to vomit. .... By the time mommy got home we had thrown up 12 times. The mommy freaked out, and rushed us to the hospital.Things got really ugly after that, there was needles and IV's and more vomiting, and they shaved my little arm, and I couldn't go home with the mommy, and then more vomiting and I felt terrible and then the Grand Finale, Tinsle colored poop! Yup poop of red and green and silver foil. So then they put me in a cage, by self, and they put widget in one by his self and I can see him but not play with him or sleep with him. So I figure well I'll chew my i. v. out instead. Widget thought this was a good idea too, so he did the same. The next morning the people came back to the hospital and they gave us a bath! and then the mommy came and gotted us. I was so happy to see her. I spent the rest of the day sleeping and snuggeling with her. So the moral of the story make sure you put the chocolate up HIGH HIGH HIGH (yes we jump and climb) cause all that puking and stuff was the pits. And though our poop was quite festive looking it wasn't worth it!

My first summer was great because.....

My first summer was great because I got a new house! Da mommy and da daddy bought what they said is their very first house. Which I don't get cause we had a house before. Mommy said that wasn't her house, but if it wasn't her house, who's was it? Cause we lived there? So didn't that make it ours? Oh well I digress. So we gotted a new house. And it's Loverly. It's got a huge yard with two lovely trees in it, a huge wooden deck, kids, cats, a big ol fluffy sofa, wonderful wood floors that make my feet go all wonky when I run and a giant bath tub where mommy gives me regular torture, err I mean baths. My first summer was also great cause I gotted a brother! Widget is my bestest friend. We do ebrey thing together. We snarffle, we lick, we run, we eat, we snarffle some more. I can't even imagine what life would be like with out my little brudder.

so I'm looking for a puggy girl friend...

So I guess I'm looking for a puggy girl friend. I've been looking for awhile, but I really haven't had anyone notice. I told cinnabon I loved her two or three times and she never even noticed... sigh. I kissed a few beautifuly wrinkled faces, but a las they were taken women. Maybe I'm to shy. Maybe I should be loud and bold like Wheezer, or Manly and tough like Tug and Hercman, Or stately like Pugsident Irving and Pugsident Spivey. Sigh being young is so confusing....At least I don't eat band aids! BOL!

Bang! POP! KAPOW! BOOM! FZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTTTTT

Psssttt. .... Pssssstttt............. Is the coast clear? Can I come out from under the bed yet? All seems quiet for now but who knows when they will return. Whom you ask? I don't exactly know, here I am minding my own business snarffleing the ground hoping mom will drop something while cooking, when it starts. At first I'm just curious. Kapow! I tilt my head and listen, pop pop pop pop pop.... I tilt my head the other way incase the other ear works better. Bang! Bang! Bang! Now my heart starts to race! Then Fzzzzzzzzzztttttttttttttttttttttttt.......... followed by ZZZZZZZZeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! And finally a loud POP! with a loud yip I take off for the bedroom. At first I think someone is following me, but then I realize it's just my tail. I dive under the bed and scoot to the middle. And listen. The horrible sounds continue all night. Mummy says it's something called "Fire works' and that they are happy things, but I don't like them not one bit. So now, here I sit, just waitting for the terrible sounds to quit so I can survey the damage. Wait.... shhhhh... I think I hear one sneaking up on us now... It's... It's right behind us run run run... Oh wait, that's just my tail.

I've been tagged!

Oh I can hardly believe it! My buddy Captain Jack tagged me so here goes!
So here is how the game goes:

The Rules: Each player starts with 7 random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged need to post in their diaries "The Rules" and 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.

So here are my seven pawsome facts about me a fizzy pup!

1. I think mommy is the bestest toy EVER

2. I am secretly in love with a little grey kitty that is a stray in our neighbor hood. Whenever I go potty she comes and visits and we play together and snuggle. It's very cute and I love her. But it's not very puggish so don't tell the other doggies.

3. I am named after a Jim Henson puppet from the movie the Dark Crystal.

4. My daddy is really my buddy even though he acts like he isn't when other people are around.

5. I LOVE baths

some things about me you might not know....

I am an only pug. An only dog for that matter. Daddy promised mummy another pug for either christmas or birthday but I'm not holding my breath.

I have to share my house with three very evil cats. Well, I think their evil. Momma says their her fur babies too and talks silly kitty talk to them. But I'm pretty sure they are demon spawn. And I have the scratch marks to prove it.

I love my mummy more then anyone. I wag my whole body when I see her and she kisses me and loves me and carries everywhere. Mummy is the best.

I like baths! I hated my first one and felt really sorry for myself upon recieving it, but everyone kept petting me and saying how good I smelt and snuggeling me. So now I can't get enough of them.

I love stuffed toys. I call them my lovies. I drag them around, abuse them thouroughly and then curl up and sleep with them.

Liver snaps are the best treat ever. Least I think they are. They are so moist, and chewy and livery. mmmmmmm....

I'm kind of a chunk. I'm only 3 months old and I weigh 8 whole pounds.

I got my first tags a few weeks ago and they have spiderman on them.

I secretly suspect that daddy actually adores me.He talks baby talk to me when he thinks no one is listening. He slips me treats and snuggles me too. Yeah I got him wrapped around my little paw.

I have 1 human sister and 2 human bruvers. The bruvers ignore me but oh does the sister luve me. She even lets me sleep in her pink princess bed from time to time. She's all pink and soft and smells like candy and other sweet sticky things. She's nice.

Mommy boughted me clothes and I didn't even seem to notice I was wearing them. Corse she was eating pizza at the time...... mmmmmm pizza.

I'm named after a dog in a Jim Henson movie called the dark crystal. Mommy saw it when she was a very little girl and always thought it was a GREAt dog name. So I am named after a muppet basically. BOL!

Dogster is awesome!

I can't believe all the wonderful new puggy and non puggy friends I have made since I joined! The love is over whelming! I even got starses and rosetses! And the awesome top dogs at dogster hq decided that my firstest diary page was great and they putted it on the pick of the day thingy! Cool huh? Ever feel like someone is watching you... oh wait that's my tail! Snarffel you later!

I'd much rather lick the camera and paw at it then let mummy take my picture. we must be quick, I think someone is following me.. oh wait that's just my tail. I don't have much to say just yet, just wanted to get my page started. Snarffle ya later.
