Ok, the other day we went to Universal Studios and when we were there it got real hot outside and my little feet got really hot! Mom kept taking me in the air conditioned stores and Blake and Gregory got me a water bottle that has a fan on it so that water sprays on me. Let me just say that when mom first turned that on and the water flew out on me it freaked me out a little, oh yes it did! I didn't bark but sure did try to scoot away at first though! I got used to it real quick and it felt real good after that first spray so it was ok. Anyway, today mom took me to Petco to get my food. The manager Scott that I haven't let pet me hardly at all for the past three years that we have been going there was there today and mom asked him if they had anything for my feet. She said that I needed shoes or something like that, WHAT!! Dogs don't wear shoes, you have GOT to be kidding me! Well Scott got some for me and I sat down when mom told me to and before I knew it he had put those things on my feet. He was so happy that I lt him do that that he started petting me and I stayed right still while he did it. Of course after I was trying to fling those silly things off my feet but they wouldn't go! I shook each front paw then I was trying to walk and shake each back foot and they still stayed on. Oh brother! After a few minutes of that he brought over this little thing that spun and made noise. He put it on my nails that are long because I will not have any part of them getting cut. Nope, won't have none of that! Well, I did let him put that on three of my nails and stayed right still then I had enough and mom told him no more right now. I heard her say that we are going back for more Monday though, we'll see about that though... After we left Petco mom and I went to the store and mom got me my favorite Dogsters doggy ice cream for being so good today and oh boy was that good! So all in all it was a pretty good day, I was real good and let someone pet me A LOT and didn't eat my new shoes and got to go to the grocery store too. Here are some pictures of my silly new shoes.

Wow, Binx, you sure are having a wonderful couple of months here, lately. I love the new shoes. I know a lot of pups with shoes like that. They use them sometimes when playing flyball so they don't burn up their pads from racing and sliding on the rubber mats on the lanes.
Vet tape wrapped on the feet usually works too (then you can coordinate with your mom's outfits, BOL!!)

So glad your Mom and Gregory have their college work done. I bet you would have looked quite dashing if you had worn a purple gown, too, BOL.

Congrats on the new home AND being able to swim in the pool. That is totally pawsome.

Take care and bark atcha guys later!

Oh boy, I can remember when Dad put shoes on me to try to keep the snow from turning into ice between my pads. Dad said it's hilarious watching a dog trying to walk in new booties.
