I`m working Hard

Well i not only have a TD job working twice a week for Hospice of Cincinnati(HOC) I also have a new TD job working for a place called Bridgeway Pointe which is a really cool assisted living place close to home about maybe 10 min away. I went for a job interview there and was such a big hit that they asked how often I wanted to come and mommy said twice a month. The people who live there are so nice and they just want to love on me and can`t wait to see how many tricks I can do. right now mommy is working on how to teach me to play "dead" BOL I love being a TD it is so rewarding and so much fun to help people feel better even at a place like Hospice. Even if the patients there can`t respond for what ever reason the families always like seeing me and visiting with me. I used to be able to go right on in to Hospice now I have to stop and say Hi to all the people in the lobby. It is great to see people smile.I went to Hospice on Thanksgiving Day b/c I knew it was hard for people and families being in a place like that on a Holiday. The people were so happy to see me it made my little heart happy. I plan on going on Christmas day if I can.

Doggie School

Well mommy has been taking me to doggie school for the past 7 weeks and tonight I graduate from doggies school. The teachers are so nice and I was recommended to go onto the next level. Can you believe it ?? Little old me. I have done so well in school that the teachers are impressed with me esp considering I`m in a class with all BIG dogs. Mommy only put me in class b/c I want to be a therapy dog and I need my paper for that. Mommy keeps saying she is thinking of putting me in the next level class. I hope so I`ve been having so much fun I don`t want it to end.Watch out world here i come BOL

Fall

Well Fall is here and that means getting every thing ready for winter including raking leaves. Well Mommy and Grandma and uncle Kevin raked up leaves and mad BIG piles to scoop up how ever b/f they got scooped up I got gently tossed into this ginormous pile of leaves and then to top it all off I had my picture taken. I was happy just watching and supervising but instead I got tossed in the leaves. Mommy said I had to check things out. What things it was a pile of leaves!! if have my picture taken several times wasn`t enough mommy went and put the pictures on my page. Then Halloween night came and it was cold out and mommy made me be a prisoner and Nikki was my guard !!1 I wanted to be an Ewok but NOOO I had to be a prisoner. I did get attention tho so i guess it wasn`t too bad plus I got to sit on mommy`s lap and be nice and warm under a blanket. Plus i did get some snacks for being good . Next year I will be an Ewok and I will not go outside when the leaves are being raked up. I just thought of something next the snow will be here UGH !!!

Life`s so hard

Well i went o teh vet about 2 weekls agao to get my teeth cleaned and for a check up. Well everything was looking good until tehy took a urine sample from me. How of them to that w/o consulting me first. Well they found crystals in it so now I have to eat special food and have cranberry juice mixed in with it. I don`t mind too much the juice is pretty good minus the fact that it makes my face pibnk. BOL Not only do I have this "problem" as mommy calls it but I am also on a diet the dumb scale at teh vets office says I weigh close to 20 pounds so now I am on a diet my treats got cut waaay back and I have to start goign for a walk if the weather is nice. Gosh is there an end to this mommy wanst em to loose 10 pounds Yipes !! I knwo it will probally be better for my health and all but I just don`t like the idea is all. Mommy is tryiong to figure out why I am scared ot eb around a bunch of otehr dogs so she says she is thinking abotu asking a trainer what is up with that. Gosh life is hard.

The computer

Well I can say one thing for sure things are never borning around my house. First right after Christmas my big brother Nikki got real sick and had to have emergency surgery to remove his spleen. Then Jan rolls around and my mommy got busy. Every year she works on a play at a local middle school. No problem at least I got my grandma to give me all the loving I can get that is if Nikki don`t hog it all BOL Well Then in Feb my grandma got a new knee so that ment she wasn`t home for a few days and when she did get home I wasn`t alloud in her lap for about 2 weeks. What a bummer. Well I asked my mommy since she is so busy and my grandma is busy all the time too if I could play on the computer when she isn`t home or is busy . She said no absulty not. Can you believe it !!! I told her I was only going to play on Dogster but she still said no. I mean come on it`s not like I`m going to play on other web sites esp since Dogster is my absolute favorate. Besides what elese would I want to do I`m a dog a very spoiled dog but still a dog. I think I can handle playing on dogster for a little bit while mommy is busy. I have begged and begged but she still tells me no. Always has an excuse things like if the computer gets fleas or has a problem she`s not here to take care of it. Of course her favorate excuse is that I should be outside getting fresh air and sunshine and excersing. I told her it`s not as much fun to be outside when she`s not home to play with me. Oh well I`m not going to give up trying to get on the computer to play on dogster when she`s not home. Hmm maybe I can sneek it one day when she`s not home and grandma is busy.

the month of May

Well the past month has been one heck of a month first mommy went and got a new w/o checking with me first !! I mean come on I should have some say in what kind of car she gets. Now she wants me expects me to jump up into the new car the same way I did in the old one. I`m a little guy and can only jump so high. Is she nuts ?? Now Nikki is closer to me and can come ino my space. I`m not happy with that. The nice thing is that I do have a window that mommy can open fur me now. Yeah !! of course I refuse to jump up into the car I make mommy pick me up and put me into the car in my booster seat BOL Not that I can`t do it myself but hey why should I when mommy will pick me up and put me into the car. My brudder Nikki caught a rabbit and wanted me to eat some of it , I refused it was soo gross, plus I can`t eat critters even if they bug me. We have squirrels that i like to chase out of the yard mainly so that I can eat some of the fallen bird seed. BOL I had to go to the dogter and was not happy about that at all. Mommy said it was just a check up but they gave me all kinds of shots and hurt me !! So mommy had to give me med for it and I really "milked" it for all it was worth. BOL Even after it felt better I acted like it still hurt so that mommy would give me extra loven.

Yucky weather

Right now I ma ready for spring and warm weathe and sunshine!! I cabn`t wait until I can get back into walking at the park again and maybe even going to the different doggie parks around to meet new friends and play. I like to help mommy in the spring plant flowers by "supervising" her. Spring sping sping where are you !!

Snow !!

Well I know the weather is definatly crazy here now. It has been nice weather out cold but nice the past week. Well that all changed yesterday it snowed a dusting all day well last night it decided to snow a lot and it is still snowing !! I don`t care too much for the snow I think oit is too cold. i will go outside long enough to od my business and then come right back in. My big brotgher wants me to play outside in it. He is driving me nuts he keeps walking around the house singing about how happy the snow makes him. Well that`s him, I may go out and play in it this afternoon to make mommy happy but right now it is still a bit too cold fur me.
