Quick Bio:
-pound dog

Likes:
I love my stuffies and squeekies! Actually, they were Rajah's, but now that I'm here, they're mine all mine!!!!

Pet-Peeves:
I don't like it when I'm not getting any attention from Casey or Rajah. Strange people trying to pet me is also pretty annoying.

Favorite Toy:
I play with them all, but I like my outdoor stuffed elephant and my indoor stuffed hippo. I also stole my pal's bumper at the park, and I hope to get a new one of my own soon.

Favorite Food:
I am the fastest eater in the west, so I don't taste much of what goes down. I like my treats, though, and random stuff from the sidewalk.

Favorite Walk:
The best spot is the island by the Yellowstone River, because I can run around off-leash, and there are so many smells and dogs to meet.

Best Tricks:
They are still my secret. Casey will have to be good before I show her all that I am capable of! I do a pretty mean flying nun impersonation, though.

Arrival Story:
I had been at a no-kill shelter for a month after my previous owner dropped me off because she was going to college and couldn't take care of me any more. In order to help me find a home, the shelter picked me as "pet of the week" for the local newspaper. This was so lucky! Casey, my new mom, took my photo for the newspaper column featuring me, and loved me right away. She almost didn't get me, though, because before she finally called the shelter to adopt me, another family had come to pick me up for a trial period. They returned me that night because I had chewed on something, which was another lucky break! Casey came to get me the next day, and now I am part of her family!

Bio:
I am having a great time in my new home. I have a great big yard to share with Rajah, my special man! I have lots of toys, and I walk really well with Casey and Rajah around the neighborhood. We take lots of trips to a big park that's on an island in the Yellowstone River, and I get to run and frolic through the woods (and snow!) There are lots of other dogs there, and I make lots of friends. I also come back when I'm called (unless I'm meeting a new pup pal), and I help Casey find Rajah when he wanders too far. I am no longer stuck in my crate when Casey goes to work, and Rajah and I spend our day patrolling the street from the couch or the yard. I am a very good guard dog, and I don't let anyone in the house unless Casey says its okay (or they have yummy treats!)

Yep. Casey called me her "little retriever" today.
See, we were on a extremely pleasant walk at the island today. She timed it just right, so the sun was out, and the weather was perfectly crisp. Ahhhh...
When we got to the spot by the river where we can get a drink, Rajah and I both had very un-dognified shoelaces of drool hanging down to the ground.
Casey sat on the beach and had a lovely time watching us wade around in the water, and decided that it would be quite entertaining to throw rocks in the river and see if we chased them.
Yeah.
I'm no genius, but come on now...
So she found a stick, and threw it in the water - not too deep, but far enough to make it a game. So I went in after it. After all, I do love my sticks!
I rescued it from the water, and what did she do? Yep. Threw another one, which I also rescued.
You get the picture.
I didn't really get too wet - after all, I am a dainty girl who doesn't like to muss her fur, and besides - do I really want her to know that I had a good time shhhh! playing in the water?!!?!?!?!
Nope.

Casey has been slacking off. See in the heat of the summer, we have avoided the island due to the bugs down by the river. I sawy she's a weenie, but then again, I don't want any ticks or mosquito bites, either.
Well, this morning was cool and pleasant, if you like Seattle. Yep, we had to walk in the rain.
It was a light rain, though, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself, racing through the underbrush, sniffing out critters and chasing birds.
Casey, however, was less than pleased. It seems as if in our summer of leashed walks, I have become less than stellar at coming back to her when she calls. I say I was busy, and am perfectly able to take care of myself in the wilds of the Yellowstone River island.
"That's not the point," she told me. See, even though I'm a big girl now (a year and a half!), she still wants me to obey her.
Who does she think she is, the boss of me?!?!?


Wakey Wakey!!

Casey has been a very lazy mom lately. She blames it on a two-day headache she would love to blame on West Nile Virus, but I say there is no excuse for getting up at our scheduled 6:30 a.m. time for breakfast.
This morning, I discovered a method of getting her out of bed not by sheer annoyance, but by sheer cuteness.

Step one: Lay alongside sleeping mom. Do this quietly so as not to disturb her. Yet.
Step two: Slowly inch head closer to hers. Please resist the urge to lick her face.
Step three: Move nose close to hers, so your whiskers just tickle her nose/mouth area. Again, resist the urge to lick her face.
Step four: Repeat step three until she opens her eyes. Then look at her with your best puppy dog eyes, keeping your nose whiskers in contact with her face.
Step five: When her eyes are focused and she gives you that "Awww.." look, feel free to lick away, and she will hug you and get up to give you breakfast!

Mission accomplished!!!
