Hello Pups!
I had two very interesting days. My humans took me with them for a car ride one day and we ended up stopping at a guitar store. Those are the big wooded thingys that my daddy plays with. I'm not sure what all the fuss is about them. Every time he takes one out and pulls those stingy things a lot of loud noise appears and it makes all the humans scream loudly. They seem to love it. Sooo strange. Anybark, they left me in the car for a while, but ended up staying longer than they expected, so my mommy came to bring me inside. The guys who worked there feel in love with me! (of course, who wouldn't??) They let me run around the store, and tried to play with me. I got to explore the whole store! It was sooo much fun! Well, until this little human walked in. I was confused by her at first b/c she was so small. She kept running after me trying to throw some thing at me. Mommy said it was a toy, but I didn't like it. And I didn't like her chasing me either. I had to keep running away and hiding behind mommy or daddy's legs. I was so relieved when she left. When mommy told the humans that worked there what kind of dog I was one of them said that was funny b/c he had a friend who has a Papillion and is trying to find a really good home for him. His friend can't take care of him and is giving him away, but wants to make sure it's to a good home. Mommy really wanted to take him, but daddy said I was handful enough. (I do keep them busy ;-) So, mommy felt really sad for the Pap and started asking people she knew if they wanted to take him in. She was having no luck at all. But, then we went to the dog park the next day!

Normally I am a little nervous at the dog park. I don't like to go too far away from my mommy while I am there, and there are soo many smells around that I want to try and smell the entire ground while we are there. It takes me a while to feel comfortable with the other dogs and humans to play with them. This time though was different. As soon as I walked through the gate, there were these two girl humans standing there and for some reason I loved them right away! I could just tell they were fantastic doggie people! I ran straight up to both of them and gave them lots of kisses, nudges, and happy pappy tailwags! My mommy was so shocked! Then she learned that these humans owned three dogs, and one was a Papillion!!! His name was Fivel, and he is only a few months older than me. When I saw him I was SO excited! It was the first time I'd met another Papillion! I was done. The entire time I was running and playing with the other dogs, especially Fivel. He was actually the only one I wanted to run up to and play with. I even chased a ball a few times and sticks, and played tag with the other dogs. It was SO fun! My mommy said she loved to see me having so much fun there. I don't know why, but having Fivel there made me so comfortable and excited! And, even better is, Mommy told one of the girls about the poor Papillion being given away, and she said her mom might be very interested! Mommy was so happy! She can't wait to call them and get them the information from the owner! I can't wait to go back to the dog park! I really hope Fivel is there!!!

Well pups, I gotta run! I'll bark at ya guys soon!
