Woof!

I like to bark-a lot. Mom gets mad but I just can't help it. I like to bark! Ever since I came back to live with Mom I have been barking. I bark at Bruno because he teases me when he gets my tennis ball. I bark at Sierra because she tries to boss me around. I bark when I am outside so everyone knows I am outside. I just like to bark. Barking is good. Woof!

Slim & Trim!

I am enjoying my new territory. Mom came over today and I showed her how svelte I am getting from all the exercise. I also don't feel the need to eat the other dogs food to prove my dominance or something. The big belly is going away! I showed Mom my ball and how I can dance around. She is glad I am happy and that I like being an only dog. She said she misses me though...

New House

Well, Dad moved out and took me with him. Mom says it is better if they live apart. I am now an only dog-Sierra & Bruno stayed with Mom and Nickolas. I LOVE being an only dog. I get all the attention, all the toys and I have a bunch of muddy, grassy land to run around in. I miss Sierra & Bruno sometimes but now I can be the true Xena Warrior Princess!

Role Models

Sometimes it is tough inspiring people the way I do. Mom & Dad decided to create a German Shepherd Dog rescue organization because they love me so much. I guess I will put up with other rescue dogs since Mom & Dad feel so strongly about saving pups like me, Sierra & Bruno. If you want to help out or FOSTER in the Western Washington area, email Mom & Dad at Don@pgsdrescue.com.

A trip

Mom & Dad decided it would be a good idea to get our pictures taken at the local Petco store. So Dad picked us up, Mom met us there with the 3 boys and we all (5 humans and 3 dogs) got our pictures taken. TOTAL CHAOS! Sierra does not know how to walk on a leash and Bruno barked at a Boxer in the store. I was so distracted that I didn't even have time to yell at Bruno for touching me. Then, on the way home in the car, Bruno threw up all over the back, including MY backside. Grrr. I knew there was a reason I don't like riding in the car...

I better get more treats...

I guess mini-me is here to stay. He has been here for over a week and my Dad takes him everywhere. That is o.k. because I don't enjoy car rides (I either end up at the vet or the groomers!). He still tries to kiss up but I have to make sure he knows his place on the food chain around here. He is getting bold though, today he laid on my head. That did not make me happy.

Will it never end?

OH MY DOG! I swear if they bring home any more I am going to freak out! This one thinks I am its mom or something. Just because it happens to look like me doesn't mean I have to like it you know. It's a good thing Mom brought home a whole bunch of balls for me to play with-otherwise I might have to go on strike.

Not again!

My mother (said with great annoyance) brought home another dog...again. She is always finding these dogs. She says "we" are animal magnets. I say she is a sucker with a capital "S." This one she found wandering along the side of the highway. She was o.k.-better than the puppies from last year-until she tried to eat my food. Thank goodness her human was found the next day! My Dad told the human to microchip Zoey (found out that was her name) to make it easier to get her OUT OF MY HOUSE next time.

Coyotes

Those coyotes were howling again the other night. They wake me up with their eerie noises. Sounds like there are pups too. My humans worry about them but I don't. I don't even bother to bark at them like I do other dogs who enter my territory. We did have a cat that was killed by coyotes a couple of years ago though. I just wish they wouldn't wake me up anymore.

Just another day...

I have got to get in shape. The fluffhead keeps beating me to the ball. And I NEED my ball. AT least she doesn't fight me too much when I take it away from her after she catches it. If I can catch her. She thinks she is so cool 'cause it's her birthday. Big whoop, birthday, shmirthday. All I need is a good butt scratch, a ball and a tippable bowl. Life is good.
