Life is like a bag of beggin strips, Delicious!

Life is great! The holidays were fun and we had loads of people visiting us and now we are headed out on a trip of our very own.

My mom's birthday is just around the corner and we are going to New Mexico to see family and celebrate! A new dog park opened up near my house and we go quite often. At first I was scared but then I got the hang of it. I jump, yelp and pull my lead until they release me into the grassy field filled with others of my kind.

I tend to play fetch more than anything but it is soooooooooooo, much fun!

Lots of licks!

I heard the bells on Christmas day ...

A bit before midnight, I snuck down stairs and low and behold there was something on a chair for me. I sniffed around a bit and pulled one precious gift off the chair.

I heard Mom and Dad peeking over the stairs. I ran to hide with my treasured item but they called me up the stairs.

I ran up the stairs, tail wagging, gift in my mouth. They laughed as, I ran under the bed. They called me out and even though I knew they would take my treasure, I came out.

I ran into the spare room and hide under that bed, they the ignored me, so I ran into the office and jumped on the sofa.

The smiled at me as I dug into my gift (I thought, they were going to take it away!). My eyes grew wide with excitement, there was really something in there for me!

I made noise and smelled so good. I played a bit and tried to run downstairs for more.  Blasted, they blocked the, stairs with a baby gate. I jumped in bed with my purple toy and slept soundly until morning.

We went down the stairs, turned on the tree and they let me open gift and gift. Then later people stopped by with more gifts for me. What a fantastic day!

I wish everyday was, Christmas day. I get away with so much more!

Christmas time is here, it's a jolly good time of the year...

Whew...I never knew this holiday stuff could be so exciting! Mom and Dad put up a tree (who puts a tree up in the house?). It has shiny objects on it and twinkling lights.

I immediatly chews the soft fabric under the tree, until mom caught me and said something about leaving her tree skirt alone! I sulked off and watched her walk away... then when she wasn't looking, I attacked it again.

I tore it to shreads and mom looked very sad, so I jumped on her lap and kissed her. All is forgivin!

The day of and the day after.

I had surgery. I had no idea it was coming. I woke up, like any ordinary day, did my usual thing and before I knew it we were rock-n-rolling (going for a car ride).


I jumped in the car, sat on mom's shoulders and anxiously awaited our destination (I thought we were going to granny's house).

We, arrived at my doctors and I thought ok, no problem another shot and then we are off. Well, that was not the case, Mom and Dad left me there. I thought they were never coming back and had abandoned me. On top of that, I had gained weight and was a heavy 5.5 pounds.

I stood in a kennel trembling, scared and anxious. The doctor came to me and before I knew it I was waking up, sore, in pain and needing my mommy.

I had been neutered, had baby teeth pulled and had an umbilical hernia repaired. Every time someone, got near my kennel, I showed them my teeth, barked and growled.

Finally, someone took me out and when they carried me into another room, I could hardly contain my excitement, Mom and Dad where there. They came back for me.

Mom gently picked me up and we went home. The next two weeks went by so slowly. I couldn't play the way I was use to and I had a cone on my head.


See my photos below and send me pity kisses.

Been Busy... Playing!

Playing is my favorite past time and I have been playing lots and lots! However something terrible happened.


My humans kept talking about this event called “Halloween” It sounded like fun! Treats, people, walking, what else is there to life?

Well… little did I know that I was going to be forced to wear a ridiculous hat. They called it a costume, I call it torture.

I snarled, growled and bared my teeth, yet somehow with the use of delicious treats (Snausages, my weakness) they tricked me into it.

To my horror they took photos and I’ve posted my complete humiliation for you to see only because I do look cute!

The Stairs

Hola!


I live in two story house and one of my most favorite things to do is play on the stairs. I play with my toys and challenge my humans to races. I always win; I get to the top and bottom first! Walking on two legs must really slow a person down.

Today was an unusually boring day! The only thing of interest is that I have been losing teeth. Mom says it’s just baby teeth and not to worry but how would she like it if her teeth just fell out of her mouth and bleed while she was playing games and eating. Since they aren't terribly worried, like I feel they should be, I keep leaving in places that increase the likely hood they will step on them. Serves them right to get poked by my beautiful discarded teeth.

I better get going before my human finds me, mom's been sick and sneezy. I sure hope I don't catch what she has but I sure love finding and tearing up her kleenex.

Adios,
Billy

Busy, Busy, Busy

My paws have been busy, sorry for the lack of updates. I had to travel with my humans! We went to New Mexico, for a funeral. It was all very sad, my mom's grandpa died and her aunt had a stroke.


While they were out doing funeral stuff, I stayed at my Granny's house. I remember that place! I lived there the first few weeks of my life. I roamed around and sniffed out my old spots.

When everyone came back, I had a blast. Loads of people to play with and I got so much attention and affection. At night we stayed in a hotel and I was a bit on edge. I barked at all the unfamiliar noises and explored the room.On our last night there, a piece of paper was slipped under out door at 4:30am it startled me! I barked, woke up my humans and they praised me for being such a good watch dog!

I was frightened but they thought I was warning them. Silly bipedal people



Bow wow
