Likes: I love to play fetch and LOVE to go for a ride in the car with Daddy & Mommy! I have my own car seat and love to sit up and look out the window - I like it when a carload of kids pass by and wave! I also LOVE to dress up everyday!
Pet-Peeves: I hate it when, Muffin, my feline sister competes with me for Daddy's attention! AND, I hate it when I'm left alone at home - I usually pout when Daddy & Mommy are gone.
Favorite Toy: Any squeaker bone!
Favorite Food: I LOVE scrambled eggs, green beans, sweet potatoes, turkey, chicken,peas, beets, lima beans, carrots, broccoli, cheese and crackers.

Arrival Story: I came to my home as a result of being put into a box and hauled off to prayer meeting. My first family had to move and couldn't take all of us puppies. So, we were packed up in a box and taken to church. All these people made over us - we tried our hardest to look oh so cute.
Well, all of my siblings were picked up first and I was left alone in the box! Yeah, I wasn't the same color as my brothers and sisters, plus I was the littlest - the runt. This nice lady (now my Mommy) came over - she was afraid at first to pick me up - but when she picked me up, she just snuggled me and held me so close. I gave her a few kisses - just to seal the deal! After that she handed me to this big guy with glasses ( now my Daddy) - he snuggled me and said - "Well, I guess we now have a dog!"
On the way to my new home, my Mommy called me Chloe - her and Daddy just kept petting and loving on me.
Upon arriving at my new home, I was greeted by my three feline siblings - two brothers and a sister. My sister, Muffin - she wasn't too thrilled with me being there - she kept making this noise - like she was losing air - I think she had dethronement issues - still does - the ole windbag! My brothers, Gossamer and Mugsy - they didn't seem to care one way or the other.
Well, that was back in February of 2004 and to this day I still have my happy home. And the windbag, I mean Muffin and my brothers are still here too!
Mommy and Daddy have spoiled me rotten! I am the Princess Chloe now! Mommy dresses me up every day - I have pretty sweaters and dresses,jammies and a real neat winter coat! I just hate my raincoat though - it makes me look fat! Oh well!
All in all - I have the ultimate dog's life!

My - how time has flown by! Christmas and New Years has come and gone! I got lots of nice things from Santa Paws. Plus, it was my birthday on Christmas Day - I am now 5 years young! :0)
But, the new year has brought some changes for me and my mommy and daddy. You see, it all started Friday night - December 19th. I ran into the wall - literally! I ran into the wall! Mommy jumped up when she saw me hit the wall and rushed over and picked me up. She snuggled me - checked me out to see if I was hurt. She put me down and I tried to run up the stairs, but kept running into them!
Mommy and Daddy got real concerned - you see I had just seen the vet a few weeks before about my cataracts. So on Monday, Mommy took me to the vet - where they said the cataracts had gotten worse. So, we scheduled an appointment with the specialist for the 30th.
Mommy and Grandma took me to the specialist - he said I didn't have cataracts! Mommy was real happy at first, but then the doctor said I had torn retinas - I am blind! The doctor said that my right retina has been torn for a long time and that I had been fooling Mommy and Daddy a long time. And the left retina went the night of the 19th - which explained my running into the wall!
Mommy just cried real hard and hugged the stuffing out of me! Grandma cried too. The doctor said I could have surgery, but there was no guarantee that my eyes would get better - this is something I was born with.
So, we came home and told Daddy the news - he cried too! Mommy and Daddy were talking and they had finally realized that I had been fooling them for awhile. Like - I would run sideways up the hill when playing fetch in the backyard. And how I stopped jumping up on the bed - cause I couldn't judge distance very well.
Well - Mommy ordered a book the doctor told her about - "Living with Blind Dogs" I guess it has some neat stuff in it about helping me adjust. Mommy and grandma have been working with me - trying to get me to go back up and down the stairs. It is scary!! Let me tell you!
I have gone up and down three steps now - feel pretty proud of myself! I still play fetch! It takes me a little longer to play - have to sniff out my toy, but I find it!
I'm just happy to have a Mommy and Daddy - and a Grandma and Grandpa - who love me very much and really are looking out for me! Grandpa gets after Muffin when she hisses at me - he doesn't like it when Muffin is mean to me. I guess she is just adjusting to it all too!
Well, it is late - Mommy is real tired - she and Daddy have to carry me up and down the stairs for right now. I have my jammers on and am ready to go to sleep.
Only 15 more days! Then it will be my birthday and SantaPaws will have been here! I can't wait! I know Mommy has hidden some presents in the garage - she doesn't want me to snoop. Last year I found a squeaker bone and came prancing into the kitchen with it - I wanted to play fetch with Mommy. But Mommy wasn't too happy I had found the bone. So this year, I guess she played it smarter and left everything in the garage.
Our house is all decorated inside and out! It is so pretty! I love sitting in front of the tree and watching the lights twinkle! My feline siblings like to lay under it - like they're Christmas presents or something! Mugsy keeps batting at the ornaments - in fact he got a hold of a cloth ornament and brought it upstairs into Mommy & Daddy's bedroom in the middle of the night! He laid it on the floor next to Daddy's side of the bed and was playing with it. It was a brown reindeer ornament and Daddy woke up, cause Mugsy was playing loudly, and thought it was poo! So, when Daddy picked it up with a tissue, he was real surprised to see it was an ornament! Needless to say, the reindeer was placed higher up in the tree now! Grandma said she found an ornament all rolled up in the powder room rug one morning - must have Mugsy too!
It is warm today in North Carolina - plus it is raining! Mommy is really happy - says we need the rain so badly - we have so many trees and bushes in our yard, so they all get a good drink of water!
Aunt Micki came for a visit yesterday! It was so much fun to see her again! I know Mommy was really happy! I played fetch with her while she was here! After Aunt Micki left, Grandpa and I went to sit out in the garage. We had fun again waving to all the neighbors who passed by. He was reading and drinking coffee again. I just laid in my big pillow and took a snooze!
Well, Mommy has been trying to cook and freeze meals ahead - yesterday and today - she's taking a break right now! I think her and Grandma will try and bake cookies this weekend.
Well Diary - I have to go - will write again soon!
Gracious - as Mommy would say - it has been busy around here! We had such a great Thanksgiving dinner! I got to eat turkey, sweet potatoes and green beans! It was all so yummy! Then, when it got dark outside, we had our lighting ceremony - we turned on all the Christmas lights on the house and turned on our Christmas tree! Everything looks so pretty now!
Mommy got out my jingle bells collar and took a picture of me in them with one of my Chrismas dresses - I am now called "The Jingle Puppy"! :0)
Grandma and Grandpa continue to spoil me rotten. Grandpa and I play a lot of fetch and Grandma makes me special treats.
Mommy hasn't been feeling too well, so I have been taking naps with her every afternoon - it's nice to snuggle with her for an hour and just rest!
