Sitting in the Dark

2008-11-20T20:02:00.002-05:00

This is me on the porch of Nana's house after doing my job. She is teaching me to "Sit" and "Stay". When I do it, she gets very excited. I love to hear her voice when she is happy with me. Sorry it is so dark, but it is night time.

My Pal, Chewy!

2008-11-18T19:58:00.001-05:00

This is my pal, Chewy. When he and Bella come over, we have quite a busy time of it. I think Chewy gets tired after we run for hours.

My Friends Came for a Sleep Over!

2008-11-18T19:56:00.000-05:00

This is my friend, Bella. She lives with Doug, Heather and Andrew Wilson. She is really crazy, but fun. I think she likes me?

Brotherly Love Taken to the Next Level!

2008-11-15T08:35:00.003-05:00

Andrew Sleeps in a Tee-Pee!

2008-11-14T08:58:00.001-05:00

Andrew loves to sleep in a tee-pee when he comes to visit Nana and Popi. Here he is having fun sleeping.

My First Haircut was Today!

2008-11-03T20:05:00.005-05:00

Nana says she can see my eyes now. I was able to see just fine before? She says I am very cute......I think I am very COLD! Do you like my long tail? I feel like I am almost indecent, don't you? See you soon.

Happy Halloween to YOU!

2008-10-31T19:51:00.002-04:00

This was my first Halloween and I got to spend it with Doug, Heather, Joanna, Michael, James, Austin, Andrew, Nana, and Popi. I hope you had a good time.

I Got it From Chewy......Finally!

2008-10-29T20:48:00.003-04:00

I finally got the Chicken from Chewy. Sometimes I think he lets me have it just so I won't cry.

Gimme the Chicken!

2008-10-28T20:35:00.003-04:00

Gimme the Chicken will ya, Chewy.

I Can Jump!

2008-10-27T20:18:00.002-04:00

I can jump when Nana teases me now. It is really fun to jump and grab a squeaky toy from her hand.

Washing Dishes with Chewy!

2008-10-26T21:13:00.002-04:00

I watched Chewy help with the dishes tonight.
It is really fun to find the little particles of food and drink that are left behind. My legs are a bit short, so I have to jump onto the door or Chewy will get all the "fixins" and won't leave me any. Does this mean I am a dishwasher?

My First Ride in Popi's "Hot Wheels" Car

2008-10-25T21:08:00.001-04:00

I was able to ride in Popi's "Hot Wheels" pickup today with Chewy and Nana. It was a lot of fun to smell all the new smells and feel the air on my face. I was able to keep Nana warm too.

Getting Back at Chewy!

2008-10-19T19:59:00.002-04:00

You know, a guy can take only so much and then he has to push back. I am now showing Chewy that I can be a tough guy, but I do have to hide behind Nana when I am finished.

Chewy Can Play Rough Sometimes!

2008-10-19T19:51:00.003-04:00

I love to wrestle with Chewy, but he is big and can play rough sometimes. I still like it though.

Challenging Chewy to a Foot Race!

2008-10-18T17:02:00.000-04:00

Wow, Chewy is very fast on his feet. I can hardly keep up with my small little legs. I will try it again soon.

Just Hanging Around with Popi!

2008-10-16T20:22:00.005-04:00

I hope you don't think that I am lazy. But, I do like to just hang out from time to time. I think I am looking at Chewy coming into the piano room. If I am, I jumped up right after this picture was taken and plowed into his head. I am growl now, too. Nana thinks it is a very cute growl. I can't grow up sounding cute, now can I? I will have to work on my growl. Did you know that I am now a big 4 pounds?

I Can Stand on My Hind Legs!

2008-10-15T20:19:00.001-04:00

Look at me, will ya! I can stand on my own two feet. This is how I wrestle with Chewy. Right after this picture was taken, I jumped on Chewy and knocked him down. Neat huh!

We see Nana.............!

2008-10-15T20:14:00.001-04:00

We like to play in the piano room because the room is just the right size to slide and wrestle around. Chewy is constantly grabbing my hind leg as I run away from him. He pulls me across the floor by my leg.......can you believe that? I have to say, it is fun! Nana calls us and we run to see if she has a treat or just ice.

More Fun with Squeaky Toys!

2008-10-14T20:11:00.001-04:00

I love to hear the squeaky sound of my toys.

Fun with Squeaky Toys!

2008-10-13T21:13:00.003-04:00

I love my squeaky toy. They can be very fun.

2008-10-10T21:05:00.001-04:00

I really like to play outside. I like to lick the leaves on Nana's japanese boxwood plants. They taste very good. I also like to play with Chewy's squeaky toys. They make funny noises when I chew on them.

More "Bells" to Ring

2008-10-08T21:03:00.000-04:00

I am still working on the bells. Nana is showing me again.

Learning to "Ring the Bells"

2008-10-08T20:58:00.002-04:00

I am now learning to "ring the bells" when I have to go outside to do my "Job." Chewy is so smart. He can do it every time. I am a little short, but I am really trying. I will keep trying. I am a good boy and haven't had an accident for a very long time. Nana is very proud of me.

Playing "Tug 'O War" with Chewy!

2008-10-04T20:07:00.003-04:00

Wow!.....is this fun. I learned to play tug 'O War with Chewy today. He is good, but I am determined! We had some fun playing today. I think Chewy is letting me win easily. I think he can pull really hard if he wants to.....but it was really fun just the same. I can't wait for our next game.

Drinking My Water!

2008-10-03T21:29:00.000-04:00

OOOOOH, I am thirsty!

Bottle Drinking is Really Cool!

2008-10-03T19:17:00.001-04:00

You know, I think I like it! When I lay on my belly to get a drink, I get a better angle on the tube and ball of the bottle and can kick the ball farther up the tube, making it easier for me to get more water. You have to get the knack of it to be a happy drinker.

Learning to Drink from My Water Bottle!

2008-10-03T19:12:00.002-04:00

One day I went into the "feeding" room, which is the family laundry room to get a drink out of my bowl. You will never believe what I found.....Yes, a hampster water battle instead. Boy, it is harder than plunging one's face into a deep bowl of water and coming up half drowned. I have been using this new drinking bottle for about 3 days and am beginning to like it. It isn't as messy as a bowl, and tastes just as good.

Andrew and Bella Came to Meet Me!

2008-10-02T21:07:00.000-04:00

Andrew and Bella came over to meet me today. What at nice little boy. Is he a member of my new family? Boy, I hope so, he is a very nice boy. I like him.

Tumbling with Chewy!

2008-10-01T19:24:00.000-04:00

I have learned to play with Chewy today. He is very nice and gentle. He will roll around and tumble with me. I like it when he takes time to play with me.

Exploring Fun Plants

2008-09-30T14:47:00.004-04:00

I am learning to like the "hangy-down" plants that Nana has all around. They are pretty and fun to play with. I hope she doesn't mind me playing with her fun plants. I also love to play with sticks............wow, they are fun to chew on.

Trip to my Vet!

2008-09-29T14:53:00.001-04:00

I met my veterinarian, Doctor Henehan today. He says I have worms.........yuck! He gave me some medicine and said I was in very good health, once I get rid of those little buggers. He says I will now poop out the worms. I grossed out Nana tonight when they came out. They were 3 inches long. I am feeling much better now! I hope I didn't gross you out. I guess my brothers and sisters gave them to me.

Chewy and Me!

2008-09-28T14:37:00.000-04:00

This is my new friend, Chewy. He is a Shi-poo just like me. He is not very nice right now, but I think I will grow on him. I can be very fun, you know.

The Collar!

2008-09-28T14:17:00.000-04:00

I am learning to find my way around outside. I also got a collar, which I have never had before. I am not sure I like it..............it itches. Nana says I will get used to it! I'm not sure.

I arrived at my new Home............Deerhaven Lane in Loveland

2008-09-27T13:49:00.005-04:00

Today two very nice people came to my house in Sardinia to visit me and my brother. We played in the yard while they talked to us. They liked both of us, but for some reason they talked to Lisa and took me home with them. Their names were Nana and Popi. They live in Loveland, Ohio. They told me that I would living with them while I go to school and learn "potty training" and other important rules. They also told me that I would go to a fun family named the Brown's in Arkansas.
