Well, it is so hot here, I do not know what to do. Yesterday it was both hot and humid. The temperature got to 103 degrees. It is just too hot for me. I went to the dog park yesterday and it was just to hot to play. However, I did play a little with a new dog named Lexie. She is a sheltie. We had fun for a few minutes until I got hot. Today was suppose to be hot again and it was. It was not as hot as yesterday, but it was still hot. I have been doing a lot of early morning walking so I can get my excersice in before it gets to hot.
My Rally Obedience has been going very well. I have been doing well. I do especially well now that my human calls me Obama dog who is fired up and ready to go. I really like that name it makes me so excited. I wonder if Senator Obama likes his name as much as I do
well gotta go get fired up to practice my drills

June 14th

Well, I made it past Friday the 13th in good shape. I was a little worried as it is a day that brings bad luck, and I am not a lucky dog. Well, I had a fun day today. I went to the dog park, and I played with some of my friends. It was fun, and I enjoyed meeting a couple of new dog they are Lola, and Dina. They are both really nice dogs.
It was interesting meeting Lola. I thought she looked like the dog I always when walking on my walks in the morning. We both are on walks and get excited to see dogs and we park. The humans never let us meet as they thought Lola and did not like each other, but that is not true we just wanted to meet. It was nice we finally got to meet each other at the park.
Tomorrow I get to go running it should be fun. I hope we go early in the morning so it is not so hot. I hate the heat, and will not run in the heat. Although it is hot here I am glad I am not in the midwest were they are flooding. My fur cousins live in Cedar Rapids Iowa, and the town is really flood, fortuately they live far from the river and are not flooded. I hope it stops raining there soon.
Gotta go

June 12th I was- right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!- !!!!!!

Again it is another hot day here in Northern California. There have been many fires, but fortuately no fires in my neighborhood. Although, there was a fire in South Sacramento. I have been working hard on my diet, and I lost 1 whole pound. I am very happy. I think I will win, and get that Obama collar. How cool will that be, all the dogs at the park will be so jealous.
Since it has been so hot, I did not go running today even though it was a running day. My running partner who is my human sister wanted to go around 8:00 am and the temperature was in the 70's. Now that is way to hot. She bugged me for a whole half hour to come get ready to go run. However, I did not go as I knew it was to hot to run. I guess she found out how hot it was, as she did not go either. Instead she went for a bike ride which is not as hot as running. Next time she will go earlier so it is not hot. Silly humans

June 10th

It is windy which is good as it has cooled off a lot. It makes me happy.
I do not understand why it has to be so hot. Doesn't mother nature understand dogs have fur, and they need cool weather. I just do not understand all these heat. My family says it is global warming. I hate heat, so I am against anything that will make the planet hotter. I am president of the hot weather whimps of America. It is a pretty good group.
I got to go running this morning before it got hot. It was fun to get those paws moving fast. However, I did stop to snoop alot, and my human sister got a little upset. She needs to remember I am a terrier, and terriers like to stop a smell thing.
I got to go rally Obedience tonight. It should be fun. I will be able to show the teacher that I can do the stand stay as my human walks around me. Trust me, and all dogs know this it is very difficult to stay as someone walks around you. It is kind of silly, but fun.
My candidate Obama is doing well he really went after McCain on the economy. Way to go Obama. You can tell Obama is for us regular animals. Can hardly wait to see what kind of dog he gets.

June 8th 2008

It is so hot here today. I hate the heat so much. Yes, I know I complain, but if you were in all this fur, and temps were in the 90's you would be hot too.
Today I went to the Bow-wow Beach Party (we do not have a beach in my town). It was fun, we went on a short walk, and I was the first dog to finish, there was flyball demo, agility and vendors at the event.
It was a lot of fun, but it was hot at the end of the event. I saw a lot of friends, and got some treats. I got to meet a new dog named Mallory. She is a German Shepard, and lives with my old friend Davis family. She is really nice and friendly.

June 7th

I upset my cats today. This afternoon my two neighbor dogs came over to play. They are real nice dogs , and they never come into my house so I really do not know why the cats are so mad. Both dogs came over and we played chase for awhile, but it was hot so we took a rest in the sad, and watched the other dog (Dakota) play frisbee. She is really good, as she can jump in the air and catch the frisbee without missing. Shadow (the other dog), and I are not into frisbee we prefer to chase. Shadow does the chasing and I do the running away from her it was fun. I think they come over again next Saturday. I am sure we will have a lot of fun again.
Tomorrow I start my weight loss contest. I know I will win as I love to play, run, and walk which you need to do to lose weight. The only thing I am not good at is giving up my snacks. I not looking foward to that. Tomorrow I have a dog beach party to go to. It is supose to be a lot of fun. I am looking foward to the party, however we do not live near a beach so we will have to pretend.

Friday June 6th

Well it is official I am in some type of weight loss contest. If I get closest to my goal then I win 50 dollars. I know it seems strange for a dog to be in a contest, but my family thinks I need to lose weight. My vet agrees, he says it will be good for my back. I am to excited to do this, but I will work hard. However, no way will I give up my hot dogs I get for rally Obedience. I love hot dogs, they are so good. I have to cut down on the snacks I eat, and excercise more. I write about how this is all going.

Hi
Well, I had a pretty good day today. I went running with my human sister, and it was fun. My collar came off 3 times, but I was such a good dog I stayed right with her. I did not run into the street or run away. I am a good dog. Then after we came home, she went away. It was just me and mom. When a man came to our house to check the air conditioner and furnes. Thankfully they are running well. It is getting hot, and I will need the air conditioner. Any way a man came and was on the roof. I barked at him, and kept him from stealing anything. By two human sisters, my fur cat sister, and I are on diets to see who can lose get closet to their weight loss goal in 6 weeks. The winner gets to spend 50.00. I know I will win, because I am one determined dog. Go Abbey

June 5th windy windy day

Hi
Boy today the weather is windy. Despite it being windy it is warm. I really do not like the hot weather. Some humans think it would be a good thing for me to get a hair cut. However, my humans thing it would not be good. I had short hair once, andI still thought it was hot. I think I am just one of those dogs that hate the heat.
Last night I went to rally-obedience school. I had a really good time. I am learning a lot. My teacher wants me to join mixed breed group then I can compete. I am being to get more comfortable with the more advance class.

Hi
What a great day today is. First I had a suprise as I went to the dog park this morning. I was not suppose to go to day, but I got to go see my friends. Then I got home only to find out that Obama had gotten enough delegets to clinch the nomination for president. I was so happy I just can not contain myself. My tail was wagging all over the place. Go Obama.
