Norna's Cutest Recycling Project; Doggie"s Story

Happy Birthday to Doggie!

OMG, what a great first birthday I had at my "Forever Home" with my people. I can not believe it's been a year already. Mommy kept telling me summer was almost here but with all the rainy weather we been having I thought maybe she was mistaken. Summer time is my favorite time of year because my boy Trent and Mommy are home all week long since Boy gets all summer off at his school. (I’m bringing this up with the other dogs at Doggie School this week; maybe I can start a riot.) But I woke up the morning of my birthday with the sun shining, and bird song filling the air. Mommy had made the greatest pup cakes ever seeing that they had liver treats for chips. Best of all they were for my doggie friends and me, not the people. My friends and I though they were mouthwatering tasty.

My people even got me a birthday present which I open all on my own I’ll have you know. Mom does not typically let me rip up paper but I finally showed her how handy it can be when I attacked the wrapping, and I had the gift out in a jiffy. I could not believe my eyes when I say it was a brand new Mr. Noodle. Mr. Noodle was they first toy mommy got me when I got to my forever home. He was my best friend and I played with him all the time, well until I ripped off too many of his body parts and mom could not sew him back together any more. Boy and I played with the dazzling new Noodle all day. Let me proudly tell you the new Noodle is all ready missing some of his beard fuzziness. I hope Mom bought in bulk.

Everybody here furnish me with tons of kisses and oodles of extra walks all day long. Life is so good now it’s getting hard to remember my life on the streets and then the long lonely stay at the pound. I’ve settled in nicely with my family here. For my birthday wish I wished all the dogs in the shelters could find their forever home like I did. Remember you can not beat a recycled doggie.

Somebunny Wanted to say Hi

Just wanted to wish everybody a happy Easter from my people and I. Time keeps hoping by here, I can’t believe I have been with my people for 10 months now. Life is good for Doggie. Well it will be when I get this stupid Bunny ensemble off. Well I’m off to see if I can steal the ham bone. Hope the bunny was good to you all.

Merry Christmas to All from Doggie.

Oh boy what good fun Christmas was with my new family! I got to do so much stuff this holiday season. It started right after Thanksgiving at the Middleborough parade. Pocksha my dog club marches in it every year and this was my first attending. I got a see all my dog friends with their people while we waited for it to start. I set eyes on the funniest looking bred of dog there, tallest dog I ever saw. Mommy said it was a bred called horse, and to be glad we were walking in front or them. It was a long three miles, but I was in high spirits because I heard all the kids in the crowd calling out “look at the Doggie.” How did they all know I would be there?
Next were pictures with Santa, you know the Big Guy? I thought he was kind of scary when I met him at school. But by the time I took pictures with him again with my grandbabies at the mall I was an old pro. Jayden needed tons of doggie kisses to calm down after the photos opt though. I was only happy to help out. Then the next night mom put me in my Reindeer hoodie and off to school with her and boy. It was our Christmas party, so all the people got to eat some of that not for doggie stuff food, and treats for us doggies. Then boy open a great gift for me, a huge canister jam-packed with yummy dog cookies. Mom made me share with the other dogs at school but I still ended up with half the jar full after showing my politesse.
Christmas eve my girl and her mommy came to sleep over. Mom spent the whole night in the kitchen working on the feast, so I had to keep my self busy by chasing my girl. That thing never runs out of energy. Mom tucked them all into bed but Boy kept trying to get up that night. Then it happened, it was here. Did you know that guy in the Red suit bring you stuff on Christmas? I got all kinds of cool tasty stuff in my stocking. And the best part was I got some of that not for doggie stuff in my kibble. Mom mixed homemade Ravioli in just for doggie. You could not have found a happier dog this Christmas, or a more tried one. I think I had a Christmas hangover.
