Oh man, do I have NEWS!

Mom’s been fighting with Vista, so it’s been a while since I’ve updated. You know how that goes… if Mom ain’t happy… Oh wait- that’s not it.


Anyway I have so many things to share with you!


Lessee…..


Mom’s been taking me to the dog park every day that isn’t raining. You’d think that since it’s almost June, we’d be there every day. Well, we live in Seattle so I don’t think I need to say any more about that.


With each visit, I’ve warmed up a little more to the people and dogs in the park. There are a group of us who just like to hang out with our moms and dads. Our job is to make sure that each mom and dad gets a visit from each of us. That’s pretty much all we do.. well except for Kiley the Jack Russell Terrier. She just runs around barking at us trying to get us to chase her. Good luck with that Kiley.


Two days ago, I took a fancy to a little Lhasa Apso and decided that she was alright, so I barked at her and put my butt in the air and wiggled it. She took the hint and pawed at me and we took it from there. We chased each other a little bit until this big dog decided to get in on the action. Grrrr, is all I have to say about that.


All the moms and dads cheered me on and told me what a big boy I was after that. Yeah, that’s right. I’m pretty much the bomb diggity at the dog park and everyone knows it.  All eyes are on ME all the time.


Today was a big day. It started out with a nice big roll in the deer poop. I had so much deer poop on me that Mom refused to wash me in the sink, meaning I had an outside bath with the hose today. That was AWESOME! I want to roll in deer poop again just so I can play with the hose. Who knew that green thing had water in it?


Mom took my lavender-smelling self to the dog park and I chillaxed with the other guys as usual and suddenly I saw a small person. Somehow he knew that I really liked sticks so he became me new best friend. We chased each other all over the dog park and I was really sad to see him leave. He was cool for a small person. Right after he left, a white Scottie dog came in the park and I lost my mind for a minute and chased him. I remembered really quickly that I don’t play with dogs and that was that.


The best part of the day was when we were leaving the dog park. I caught Mom off guard and she accidentally dropped my leash. I took that as a sign that it was time to walk myself. I think I enjoyed it way more than Mom did, although I saw her laugh a few times. She thought it was funny that I was carrying my own leash when I was running away from her. I’m going to try that again. I like making Mom laugh.


When we got home, Mom showed me something that Grandma and Grandpa sent me in the mail. Grandma calls it my “image maker” and it’s super cool. That’s all I’m going to say about that for now. You’ll just have to wait for the pictures!


Yep, it’s been a great day. I can’t wait for tomorrow, and I don’t even care what Mom has planned. I’m sure whatever it is, it’s going to be fun. Every day is a fun new adventure for me.
