Arrival Story: when our previous dog died, the poker guys gave us money to get a new dog. they also gave us a book on how to train a dog. we went to the dog pound, asked for a freindly dog that was a fixed female. they said, "we have just the one." we got her the first day of christmas vacation. we had 8 days to teach her how to behave in a house by herself, because we'd have to go back to work. other than taking an occasional stroll through the "forbidden room," she does OK. well, she can't resist taking a soap wrapper out of a garbage can but she tries her best.
Bio: she can spot an old person who may be tempted to feed her a mile a way. she has made it into 17 of the neighbors houses. she never met an open door that she didn't take advantage of. Dot's favorite saying or motto is "It's hard Being a pup."
Forums Motto: it's hard bein' a pup

That book has everything, adventure, romance, fashion tips. Plus it is the book mom uses to help the boys learn how to read so I've heard it a million times.
favorite tv show: Martha Speaks. It is on PBS so check your local listings. It is about a dog that ate alphabet soup and now she speaks like a person. She acts just like me.
favorite quote: This is from Martha Speaks.
"Books are good, but nothing beats a good piece of meat."
Arrived on the Bridge: I arrived on the Rainbow Bridge on Sept. 12, 2009. I was so happy to see all my dogster pals that I had missed. All we do is run and play and eat. It's great.
I know everyone is waiting to meet the new pup that I sent to mom and dad. Unfortunately, mom has the swine flu. So all she is doing is sleeping. (I had to use my ghostly dog powers to posses mom to write this entry. She thinks it is just a dream.) Mom did get some tamiflu and she should be conscious by Friday. Then you'll get to meet the new girl.
I have been looking for a new pup for mom and dad. I know that since I went to the bridge they have been lonely. So I have kept my eye out for the perfect pup for them. I finally found her, but I had to get mom and dad and this pup to meet.
First I got mom and dad and dad's boss to have a conversation about pups and kitties in the shelter. Dad's boss told him a story about how she adopted a cat and this cat had a roommate that dad's boss couldn't take. But when dad's boss told people about the cat's roommate so many people went to the pound to adopt the cat's roommate. Well, that got dad thinking about checking the animal shelter on-line, just to see what they had.
That's where he first saw this pup. He told mom to look at the animal shelter site, but mom said she couldn't look at the site unless she knew she was getting a pup that day. So that got dad thinking more. Dad wanted to wait until Christmas. That way someone would be home all day and they would be able to tick a dog to behave in the house. But, I knew how lonely mom and dad both were. And it wasn't right that I am up in heaven having a blast and mom and dad were both lonely and there was the perfect pup at the shelter for them.
So I pushed a little harder and yesterday dad said to mom: "Let's go to the shelter and see what they have. " Mom said to dad: " If we go to the shelter, I'm not leaving empty-handed."
So this morning, mom and dad did their chores. They did them soo fast they really shouldn't have bothered. Then hurry to the shelter. They saw some really sweet dogs. They saw one that looked like me. But he was a little too young and loud. They saw a sad looking Boxer. But he wasn't quite the right one. They saw a beautiful brindle Pittie. But he was getting adopted. Then I led mom and dad to the pup I picked out.
She is a golden retriever mix. She was just sitting there. Not making any noise. She was a stray and they think she is about 3 years old. Dad fell totally in love with her. (Ok, dad fell in love with her when he saw her on line). They took her for a walk. She was soo well behaved. She was so friendly and happy. I whispered in mom's ear that she would know by the end of the day that they made the right choice. So mom and dad adopted a new dog.
The dog shelter had named this dog Goldie, but mom and dad are looking for a new name. Once they get a new name for her, mom will put her on Dogster so everyone better make friends with my new little sister.
Mom and dad were very impressed with this dog. She has obviously been trained, she knows several commands. She is a good traveler. She was friendly with all the dogs in the neigborhood. And when she saw some kids she went right up to them.
She is not food crazy. She has a certain sweetness about her. She has a big purple tongue. Not a black spot but totally blue. Like she's been eating smurfs. Also she doesn't bark. We don't know if it's what she is mixed with or if she had a no bark collar and now she doesn't know how to bark. If anyone knows how to find that out let us know.
After mom and dad got sis settled in, they had to go to church. There was a visiting priest today. When he came in the church he was followed by a dog. A golden retriever. I told mom I would send her a sign and I did.
So once we get her a name, mom will get her a page and she will be the active dogster dog. I will retire It's Hard Bein' a Pup and relax in heaven knowing that I have done my final job taking care of mom and dad.
