Adventures of Bismarck

Bismarck Got His Wings

2011-09-08T14:19:00.000-07:00

My Bismarck got his wings today. I know he is not in pain anymore, but I hope wherever he is there is plenty of space to run around, dogs to play with and more toys then he will ever be able to destuff.

This was the hardest thing I have ever had to go through. Bismarck has filled my life with so much laughter and joy. I will miss that little guy more then words can say. He has always been my angel, now he really is one.

Home from Tests

2011-08-31T16:11:00.000-07:00

Bismarck came home from the neurologist this morning. The CT scan didn't show any masses in his brain which is good, but we are still waiting on the results from the other tests. He is on steroids and different antibiotics. His behavior hasn't changed any, he is still having trouble with his balance. He falls over every time he gets up. It is really sad, but I am hopeful that whatever it is can be treated.

Going to See Specialist

2011-08-29T12:42:00.002-07:00

Bismarck is not getting better, unfortunately, he seems worse. He needs assistance walking and going to the bathroom because of his balance issues and muscle weakness. We are going to see a neurologist tomorrow morning at the same office that did his hernia surgery a few years ago. If he is having seizures of some kind, I have not seen it happen. I have no idea what is causing this and I am so scared. He has hypothyroidism not hyperthyroidism I must of misunderstood the vet last week. I hope that we find out something tomorrow, I just want him to feel better.

Need Your Thoughts

2011-08-27T19:19:00.000-07:00

I know it has been a really long time since we have posted and I am posting now because I would really like some positive thoughts out there for Bismarck. He has been having some health issues. It started out with him tripping over things and now his balance is off that he is falling all the time (mostly to the right). His back legs fall out from under him, muscle weekness. He has been on steroids hoping that it would help but it did not. Some blood work came back that he has hyperthyroidism and I have put him on meds for that this weekend but my vet said she has never had a hyperthyroid present with the symptoms he has so she will be consulting with a specialist on Monday. She said she didn't want to scare me, but there is a possibility of a stroke or a tumor. More test will need to be done, probably an MRI. I just want him to feel better. It is breaking my heart to see him like this. I will post when I know more.

What a sweet face.

2009-07-02T19:45:00.000-07:00

Bismarck's Mom here, I just wanted to show you all what a sweet face I woke up to this morning. He is the my baby boy. I can't imagine waking up to anything better. :-)

Getting All Healed Up

2009-06-03T20:39:00.000-07:00

I went back to the surgeon the end of last week for a follow up and other than having my butt poked at.....again, all is well. I don't know what Mom was so worried about. I feel much better now. Time to take a nap. Catch everyone later.

Been Awhile....just had surgery

2009-05-14T17:14:00.000-07:00

Bismarck's Mom here. Bismarck had surgery yesterday. He had two hernia's repaired and whas neutered. I was very worried about him but he is home and resting now. He seems to be doing well. I am going to post a picture of his shaved area. Don't tell him, he would be so mad at me. :-)

Poor little guy has a bald butt. I can't tell you how happy I am he came through it all ok.

It's Almost Christmas

2008-12-13T18:37:00.000-08:00

We have no excuses for not posting. We and I mean Mom is lazy. We haven't been doing anything exciting. We don't even have our Christmas card ready to mail out yet. I have been playing with Aunt Rosie of course. She acts like she doesn't want to play, but I know one day she will.
We hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

I Had Company

2008-06-23T18:52:00.000-07:00

I had company over the weekend. Jazmine came to spend the night Saturday. We had so much fun, running around. Look how pretty she is. She is so petite.

This is a picture of us on the couch. Mom made us sit still and be "good" so she could take this. She was butting in on my play time with Jazmine.

I hope I get to see her again soon.

Blah...

2008-06-10T18:29:00.000-07:00

We had the prettiest weather here then over night it went to 94 degrees and humid. If that isn't bad enough the cicadas have taken over. They don't really bother me but my Mom goes nuts when they land on her and she doesn't want to take me out for walkies as much. I hope they go away soon. Sorry no pics right now. I will do better next time.

Whoot We finally got a new 'puter

2008-05-24T14:49:00.000-07:00

Mom got a new laptop. So hopefully she will get more blogging done. Thought I would post a few pics from the last few weeks.

This spring has been rainy but it has made all of the flowers and plants really pretty. These are the tulips in front of the Capital at the end of April.

It rained during half of the Derby breakfast so not many pics but this little girl was dressed like a jockey. Isn't she cute.

This picture was just taken yesterday during our afternoon walk. There is a really nice rose garden behind the Capitol.

Aren't they pretty.

The floral clock behind the Capitol is looking really pretty too.

I'll be bloggin more often now. She has no excuse now. ttyl

OMD Not Again

2008-04-01T15:19:00.000-07:00

So, Mom finally got the internet so I can start posting again and then what does she do? She crashes her computer. It is completely useless. We are at Grandma's staying with Aunt Rosie this week while G-ma is on vacation. That is the only reason I am able to post this. It will be another month before we get another computer. I'll try to post from G-ma's a couple of times before then. No pics though. Talk to you soon.

A Little Catch Up

2008-03-13T16:36:00.000-07:00

Well it has been cold this winter so most of what I've done is sit in front of my heater
or playing with Aunt Rosie. Look at her scary teeth. Doesn't stop me though.

As you can see, I got a new camo harness. Do I look tough or redneck? I think tough.

It is still winter but Spring is just around the corner. It was in the 60s yesterday and I got to go for a couple of long walks. The Legislator's are in right now in Kentucky so there are lots of people out and about at the capital. At my lunchtime walk there were a lot of military troops on the capital steps. Gotta love our military. :-)

Then later in the evening I got to go on a walk with Dash. We haven't gotten to do that in so long because of the weather. I've missed my buddy.

We saw lots of doggies out walking on the pretty day. This is Elvis a really big Bassett Hound. He has the saddest eyes.

I see these two little guys all the time, even during the winter. I should know their names, but I don't.

Later we saw these guys. They are Abby, Peanut and Turbo. They look so familiar. I don't know what it is.

As pretty as it has been the past couple of days, it is hard to believe it looked like this on Saturday, just 5 days ago.

I am so glad I am able to post again. I will not go that long again. I have missed everyone.

Finally...

2008-03-11T19:06:00.000-07:00

OMD...My Mom finally got internet at home. I will be able to post on a more regular basis not. We actually got about 6 in. of snow over the weekend. That is the most snow we have gotten in several years. I have to say I wasn't too fond of it. It is hard to find the right spot when there is no grass. :-) It didn't last very long thankfully and it is going to be in the 60s this week. I can't wait for spring so we can go out for more walkies. I will have pictures to post in a couple of days.

My Mom Is So In Trouble

2007-10-11T16:43:00.000-07:00

Still no internet. That really isn't an excuse, she is just lazy. Just a quick catch up. The summer in Kentucky was mostly hot and humid. Yuck. About a month ago my Mom got all freaked out, I had to have a biopsy on a BIG knot that came up on my chin. The doctor said it wasn't cancer though. The doctor said it looked like I might have chipped my bone and inflamation stuff made the knot. I may always have a knot but it won't hurt me. That made my Mom feel so much better. Other than that, the summer was very uneventful. I may not have been posting but we have been keeping up with everyone elses blogs. I'm going to make Mom post more often and put up pictures.

Sorry It's Been So Long

2007-05-24T14:29:00.000-07:00

My Mom is really slacking on her duties with my blog. She says it is because we don't have the internet at home and being at a new job she can't use the one at work. She promises she is going to take care of that soon. Nothing exciting has happened really. The Kentucky Derby has come and gone, the primary election for the governor was this week so Mom was off half a day. She went shopping and didn't stay home with me though. Bad Mommy. Hopefully I will get to post more often. Sorry I don't have any pics to put up right now.

Been so long

2007-04-18T06:16:00.000-07:00

Sorry I haven't posted in so long. Mom has been way busy. She got a new job, starts May 1st, she is so excited and been busy at her old job trying to get everything in order to leave.

I went to the vet Monday for my yearly exam, it was all good. Got a shot, but I also got some treats, I guess it all works out.

Nothing real exciting going on, the Kentucky Derby is less than three weeks away so there is lots going on the grounds around my house, the Governor is getting ready for his Derby breakfast.

This picture is of one of the tulips they have planted in front of the captial. They have six huge beds full of tulips (white & purple except a few like this one that I don't think were suppose to be in there). They have all been up for a few weeks now, unfortunately they are starting to fade.

I'll post about something better later. Have a good weekend.

Beautiful Weather

2007-03-13T11:04:00.000-07:00

It has been really pretty here for the past week, it is 76 degrees out right now, I've gotten to go for lots of walks and Mom and I have been sitting on the porch.

This is me up on the rocker.
This is a picture of our view form our porch, Mom is so weird, she took 4 pictures and put them together. If you look on the far left you can see the Governor's mansion and if you look really close towards the right, you can see the top of the capitol.

There are more flowers coming up on my street, aren't they pretty. Mom is taking me on a long walk tonight because it is suppose to start raining tomorrow and highs only 45 degees by the weekend. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted.

Spring is Coming

2007-03-09T09:33:00.000-08:00

Look what is coming up on my block:

It is 69 degrees and sunny outside today, I'm going to take advantage of it because in Kentucky it could still snow in May. Mom said she is taking me to a park for a long walk today, I'm so excited.

Random Pictures

2007-03-05T08:43:00.000-08:00

Not much has been going on lately, it has been a little warmer so I've gotten to go on long walks. I thought I would post a few pics Mom took over the winter.

Me watching TV with Mom

Snuggled up in the beanbag. Note to Mom, you really should take more action shots of me, people are going to think all I do is sleep.

For some reason, Mom likes to take pics of my feet. I can't figure it out.

Hopefully I'll get some outside pictures soon.

Happy Valentine's Day

2007-02-14T07:33:00.000-08:00

Been Pretty Lazy

2007-02-13T09:42:00.000-08:00

It has been cold and wet outside lately, days only good for laying around. It did snow about an inch a week or so ago, but today it is raining, while all the areas around us are getting snow. If it is going to be cold, it might as well snow. Well back to my nap.

Been A While..

2007-01-31T11:30:00.000-08:00

It's been almost a month since my last post. Nothing exciting has been going on...it is getting cold here in Ky though. Mom has been making me wear sweaters lately, sorry no pics right now, I'll have to get Mom to download her camera this weekend. We might actually get some snow tomorrow. I'll believe it when I see it. I'll try to post again next week with some pics, escpecially if it snows.

Happy New Year!!

2007-01-05T08:35:00.000-08:00

Better late than never I guess. I hope everyone had a good holiday and enjoyed the extra time with the their humans since they were off work.

Tagged

2006-12-18T10:57:00.000-08:00

I've been tagged by a couple of dog bloggers

Here are the rules:

The player of this game starts with "3 things he/she would love to get for Christmas" and also has to list "3 things he/she definitely does not want to get for Christmas". Then he/she tags 5 friends and list their names. The ones who get tagged need to write on their blogs about their Christmas wishes, as well as state this rule clearly, then tag 5 more victims. And the one who tags need to leave his/her victim a comment that says "you've been Christmas tagged!" in their comments and tell them to read your blog.

3 Things I Would Love for Christmas:

1. I would love a new budder or sister (don't think I'm getting one)
2. More play time with Auntie Rosie and my buddy Dash
3. Lots of long walks and treats

3 Things I Definitely Don't Want for Christmas:

1. Baths
2. Photo shoots for cards (really didn't like that)
3. To go out in the rain

Looks like most everyone has already been tagged so I'm not forwarding it on.

Christmas Card 2006

2006-12-12T09:29:00.000-08:00

I finally joined dogs with blogs, but it was to late to get on the Christmas card list so I thought I would post my card now that Mom finally got them mailed out. So we wish you all Happy Holidays.....

X-mas photo shoot

2006-12-06T11:29:00.000-08:00

Mom decided to take some pics of me and Dash last night for Christmas Cards, it was totally humiliating, see below:

I was totally freaked out at first...

But then I calmed down and was just ready for it to be over.

Butt pic

Butt pic 2

Capital tree.

Mom's plan is to do some photoshop magic to make the Christmas cards, she was going to use the capital and tree as background, but it didn't turn out as expected so she is using another festive background. You'll just have to wait and see after she is done, I am sure she will post it for me.

Brrrrr....

2006-12-01T08:50:00.000-08:00

The weather in Ky has been in the 60s all week, it has been wonderful. BUT TODAY, it is only noon and the temp. has gone from 50 degrees this morning to 32 degrees right now. A good day to stay snuggled up in bed.

Floral Clock

2006-11-20T07:55:00.000-08:00

Thought I would post some pics of me and Dash on a walk, these pictures are about three weeks old at the Floral Clock behind the Capital in Frankfort, Ky. (The clock isn't very floraly right now though.)

Dash walking on the wall in front of the clock. Dash's Mommy makes him walk all the way around the clock on this wall, it makes him very nervous because of the water, but he is a brave boy.

Me checking out the water in front of the clock.

Me and Dash on the wall in front of the clock.

Been A While...

2006-11-15T09:01:00.000-08:00

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, you can blame my Mom for that of course. Nothing to exciting going on so I thought I would post some pics of my living room. My Mom seems to have this strange idea that because she pays the bills it is her living room, but the following two pictures will show that that is obviously not the case.

What do you think?

A Big Thank You

2006-10-24T06:05:00.000-07:00

Bismarck's Mom: Bismarck and I would like to give a BIG THANKS to Brody and his wonderful people at Bull by the Horn , I asked them for help changing my header and as you can see, by the change above they came through with flying colors. Brody you have a great person behind the scenes supporting you and your cause. Thanks again.

Feeling Better

2006-10-09T08:08:00.000-07:00

Thank you all for your thoughts and helpful information while I was feeling down. I am doing much better. After being on prescription ID food and Pepcid AC for over a week, I started back on my regular Eukanuba food this weekend. I am happy to report I did not throw up once all weekend. Mom spoke with the vet on Friday and she seems to think it was a really bad case of gastritis and my tummy just needed time to feel better.

The weather was beautiful this weekend, Mom and I went on lots of walks and layed in the grass to enjoy the warm fall day. No pictures though, I am going to have to start training Mom a little better.

Feeling Poorly

2006-10-02T10:28:00.000-07:00

Bismarck's Mom: Sorry we haven't posted in so long, Bismarck has been feeling a little under the weather. These are his symptoms, not every day, but it seemed like every other day, within 2 hrs of when Bismarck would eat, he would throw everything up and this went on for a couple of weeks so I took him to the vet two Fridays ago, they gave barium and took a bunch of x-rays all day. They said he was having slow intake from his stomach to his intestine, but the x-ray didn't show a blockage or anything so they don't know why. He is on prescription food and Pepcid AC for a while to see if that helps. He doesn't throw up with the prescription food, but if he has anything else, treat other food, etc., he will throw it up so I don't know what is wrong with him. He acts fine, his energy level seems to be the same, the only time you know he isn't feeling good is when he throws up. If he doesn't get better, they said the only options I have is exploratory surgery or send him to a specialist to have a scope test. I will definitely take him to the specialist, if that is what needs to be done, I would think that would be easier on him than surgery. I'm really worried about him. I will be calling the vet back today to check in with them about how he is doing. Please keep my baby in your thoughts and if anyone has any suggestions or ideas, I would really appreciate hearing them.

Dash's Birthday!

2006-09-12T10:47:00.000-07:00

My buddy Dash turned 12 this past weekend. We went to the park, went for a walk, had chicken for dinner then we went back to the house and he opened presents and we got treats. Here are some pics from the evening.

Dash, the birthday boy, driving us to KFC for our chicken dinner

Me and Dash at the park

Dash in his birthday hat, he doesn't look very happy does he?

I was not spared the humiliation, I had to wear it too. Yuck...

Dash opening presents, I am going to have to try that on my next birthday.

Mom and I got Dash this duck toy, Dash is always playing with mine when he comes over so we got him one too, and he got some beggin strips. I got to have one when he opened it. It is a win win for me. :-)

The birthday boy got all tuckered out from all the fun. The evening was big fun, I always enjoy hanging out with Dash.

Hanging Out With My Buddy

2006-08-29T10:06:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday to my Momma

2006-08-23T06:07:00.000-07:00

Today is my Momma's Birthday, she didn't want me to say her age (shhhh 35). I plan to give her lots of extra kisses today and let her take me on a long walk. It will be lots of fun. Happy Birthday Mom.

All Moved and I've been tagged

2006-08-17T11:51:00.000-07:00

We finally got everything moved into the new place, but still need to unpack ALL the boxes. I'm still not very comfortable there, but it will grow on me.

Daisy tagged me, she said that tagging means that I tell you guys five weird things about myself. Then I Tag five other people (I only tagged one) and they do the same thing. So here I go.

1. I sit with my feet sticking out behind me - Mom thinks I must be double jointed or something.

2. When I fall asleep, I like to snuggle my stuffed toy with my feet and suck on its nose.

3. I get all this energy built up and I run around doing what Mom calls "crazy dog".

4. I hardly ever bark, something has to really scare me and it is usually only one very strange horse sounding bark.

5. One of my favorite things to do is to get a hole in one of my stuffed toys and destuff it.

Most everyone has been tagged already but I noticed Joe Stains didn't have one on his blog.

So Tag Joe

Quality Time

2006-08-07T12:15:00.000-07:00

In between packing boxes and all the moving stuff, the big move isn't until this Saturday, I've been spending some quality time with Auntie Rosie

Doesn't she look thrilled......

I know she missed me while I was gone. :-)

I'm Back....

2006-08-01T05:56:00.000-07:00

I'm back with Mom again.....I was so happy to see her. We have been very busy visiting Rosie and Grandma and Auntie Benita and Dash. We are also getting ready to move in a couple of weeks so things are a bit hectic and it is soooooo hot out around here. The heat index is suppose to be 100 degrees today. I haven't gotten to go on any long walks with Dash since I have been back because of the heat and I don't like it. Mom said the new BT puppy up the street is getting bigger so I will be able to play with him soon I hope. So much to do and it is too hot to do any of it........blahck.

1 more week

2006-07-21T08:00:00.000-07:00

Bismarck's person: Just one more week (July 27) until Bismarck comes back to stay with me. I am so excited. I miss him so much I can hardly stand it. :-) I got a new digital camera since he has been gone, so I hope to take lots of new pics when he gets here.

Back...

2006-07-06T07:30:00.000-07:00

Bismarck's Person:

I am back from my vacation, but Bismarck is still with his Diddy. I won't see him until the last week of this month. I miss him terribly and can't wait to see him.

Here are a few pics from my vacation:

View from condo

Picture taken while on the Sea Blaster (we saw baby dolphins while we were on this ride.)

I'll post some pics of Bismarck sometime soon.

Vacation

2006-06-23T05:57:00.000-07:00

I won't be posting for a little while, Mom is leaving on vacation Saturday to Destin, FL. I don't get to go, but I am going to my Diddy's house. I've missed him, so it will be big fun to see him and my almost 2 year old human sister. I will probably not be back with Mom until the end of July, but she said she will post some pics for me while I am away. I am going to miss Mom. :-(

Talk to you all soon.

Bismarck's person: Mom is going to miss you too Bismarck. :-(

Sitting

2006-06-20T08:01:00.000-07:00

Uncivil commented about the way I was sitting in one of my previous posts so Mom thought I should post a better picture of it.

I don't really find it that strange, but everyone else seems to.

2006-06-16T12:35:00.000-07:00

Bismark's Person: Thought I would just post a couple of pics I like.

He cracks me up when I see him sitting like this. I think he looks like a little old man.
I just never get tired of looking at his cute little face.

That's my baby.

Weekend Trip

2006-06-14T06:13:00.000-07:00

We had a good time on our trip to Port Clinton, OH. The car ride was long and I got very sleepy, but I made it ok. I got to go for a long walk at a really pretty marina and on a house boat. It was cold while we were there and they had swarms of bugs they called May Flies. YUCK! Here are a few pics from the trip.

Me sleeping in the hotel

Marina in Port Clinton

Me on Uncle Jay and Aunt Barb's houseboat

President Bismarck

2006-06-07T10:29:00.000-07:00

Mom hasn't taken any pics of me lately so she decided to fabricate one. President Bismarck, I could handle that.

Feeder Supply

2006-06-06T09:49:00.000-07:00

My buddy Dash and I went shopping at Feeder Supply this weekend to buy some food and toys of course. Auntie Benita and Mom came along too of course. Mom had ordered me a Fido Rido for the car and this was my first trip in it. It wasn't too bad, I could see out the window pretty good and it is really soft if I decide to lay down. That doesn't happen very often though, got to keep lookout. I would have posted a picture, but Mom didn't bring a camera. I am going to have to train her better.

The rest of the weekend was ok, Mom and I stayed at Grandma's, she has a great balcony that I sun myself on, that is always fun. Again, no pics.

Mom is going to a wedding in Port Clinton, OH, this weekend, I get to go along too and I know there will be a camera so I'll post some pics next week.

2006-05-24T11:31:00.000-07:00

Just a good pic of me and Auntie Rosie where I am not pouncing on her head. :-)

New Harness

2006-05-23T09:21:00.000-07:00

Mom got me a new harness. She says I look very hansome.

I look at a lot of pug blogs and have seen them wearing these and they looked very comfy and it is. It almost didn't fit me though, my head is a little large, but Mom says that is why I am so cute. :-) Whatever.

Yucky Weekend

2006-05-22T10:31:00.000-07:00

Didn't feel to good this weekend. Mom took me to the vet Friday, I was throwing up, etc. The Dr. said I had an infection so I have to take gross medicine and can't have my usual yummy treats. It was a really pretty weekend here and I didn't get to fully enjoy it because I felt bad. Oh well, I am starting to feel better now.

Wet-Rainy Day

2006-05-12T07:35:00.000-07:00

It is such a wet dreary day and the temp is only in the 50s. A good day to snuggle up and stay in. I wish Mom could have stayed home with me today.

*Mom does too.*

Waiting for Mom to Come Home

2006-05-01T13:20:00.000-07:00

Mom is so good to me, she put this chair in front of the window, just so I chould look out easier. I am usually right here waiting for her every afternoon when she comes home.

Mom says my wounds are healing good and my hair is growing back. She said the guy who owns the scary dog next door should get served with papers sometime this week to inform him of a hearing whatever that means. All I know is Mom has been really nervous lately and I think she worries about me when she isn't here. We will both be glad when this whole mess is over with.

More Info

2006-04-25T12:44:00.000-07:00

From Bismarck's Person:

Kentucky does not have very good laws where this kind of thing is concerned. Animal control came, took a report and because the dog had all of its shots they quarantined the dog at home for 10 days which is over today. That is all that is required for them to do, if I want something done, I have to file a complaint with the County Attorney's office myself, which I have done. Meanwhile, the dog is still right next door.

On a good note, Bismarck went back to the vet yesterday for a follow-up and the Dr. said she was very pleased at how his wounds were healing. I can't tell you how happy that makes me. :-)

Bad Sunday

2006-04-19T13:15:00.000-07:00

Mom and I had a really bad evening Sunday. We were walking around our block like we normally do and were almost home when a dog jumped out of a second story window and attacked us. Mom tried to get me away before he got there but he was too fast. I got some minor bite marks before Mom got me away, but unfortunately, the bad dog went after Mom next. Grabbed her by the leg and shook. Several neighbors came running when they heard Mom screaming (boy can she scream loud) and the bad dog finally let go of Mom's leg but only to go after my friend Daisy dog. Fortunately Daisy is as big as the bad dog and scared it off. By then though, Mom already had me in the house checking me over. She is a good Mom, she was more worried about me than herself. When she figured out that I was ok, our neighbor Karen, (Daisys Mom) drove Mom to the emergency room and Auntie Robin came to stay with me. Mom knew I was upset and didn't want to leave me alone. She is very good to me. I sure was glad to see her when she got back from the emergency room. The next morning I got a little sick and was acting strange so Mom did take me to the Dr. and they kept me for the day to make sure I was ok. I am and I am glad my Mom will be ok too.

I am going to post a pic of Mom's leg so if you don't like stuff like that, don't look. This pic was taken on Wed. 3 days after the event. The wound is on the lower right leg, just below the knee.

Lunch Time Walk

2006-04-12T10:16:00.000-07:00

Mom took her camera with us when we took our walk around the block at lunch time.

The flowers are ok to pee on, but taking pictures really bored me.

Just a cute pic

2006-04-11T13:20:00.000-07:00

This is an old picture, but Mom likes it and wanted to put it on my blog. Since she is the one who does the typing for me, there wasn't much I could do.

I got to go to work....

2006-04-05T13:07:00.000-07:00

I finally got to see where Mom goes during the day, I got to go to work with her today....the office was kicking of an America on the Move campaign and she took me with her for the walk. I got to go up in the office for a little while first and visit with people and smell everything. Then we all went outside....

I wasn't sure where all the people were going, but it was fun, so I went too.

Mom took me home afterwards, good thing, I was tuckered out.

I think I should get to go to work with Mom everyday. :-)

I Love Weekends

2006-04-03T11:02:00.000-07:00

It was such a beautiful day on Saturday, Mom and I went for a long walk to the Capital. Of course she forgot the camera so no pics of me. I was worn out before we got home though. Found several nice shady spots to stop and lay down on the way back. :-)

Sunday, Mom took me for ANOTHER bath at Auntie Benita's. That wasn't much fun, but I did get to go run around the backyard with Dash afterwards. That WAS lots of fun. Dash cut his tongue though and later had to end up making a trip to the vet because it wouldn't stop bleeding. I hope you get better soon Dash... I'll come back over when you are.

I get to go see Rosie tonight. I haven't gotten to see her in almost a week. Yeppie!!

Beautiful Day!

2006-03-30T10:51:00.000-08:00

O.K. It is a beautiful day, let's go outside, let's go outside, let's go. Actually Mom said she is going to take me to the game farm this afternoon with Dash and Auntie Benita.....I can't wait. I'm not sure where Mom goes during the day, but she can't get home soon enough.

It is finally starting to warm up in Kentucky. Today is going to be close to 70 degrees. Lots of flowers in bloom to sniff. Sun to warm me. I love it.

What A Face :-)

I Still Want To Play

2006-03-16T13:03:00.000-08:00

Be prepared, I'm gonna get ya' Rosie.......look out, here I come. I've kicked it into "crazy dog" mode.

Let's Play Rosie

2006-03-14T10:04:00.000-08:00

Let's Play....Come on Rosie -- you know you want to play......play.....play.

New Friends

2006-03-13T10:25:00.000-08:00

I made a new friend Saturday.....her name is Katie. I had lots of fun. I am having a hard time finding a friend that can keep up with me though. She is only two and I still ran circles around her. Oh well it was fun, I hope she comes back to visit soon. Sunday it rained all day so Mom and I slept in and just made it a lazy day. Duck is a really great snuggler.

Trip to PetSmart

2006-03-08T08:00:00.000-08:00

Mom and Auntie Benita took me to PetSmart last night, it was big fun.....lots of new smells , things to pee on and friends to make. Mom forgot to take the camera, but she said I was a really good boy. I got food of course, a dino cuz, my first kong, a velvet bone and a new tag for my collar. I love the dino cuz, I'm trying really hard to get those pesky feet off.
We stopped at Backyard Burgers and had dinner in the car, I got my own glass of water and Auntie Benita shared bites of hamburger with me. Except for having to wear a seatbelt, it was a good evening. I can't wait to go back again.

Lots of Bone Chewing Going On

2006-03-06T10:40:00.000-08:00

Went to play with Rosie over the weekend. She always wants whatever bone I'm chewing on. She thinks if she barks at me I'll drop my bone and she can make off with it. I've caught onto that trick. We stayed for a long time on Sat., so I was worn out when I got home. This is usually Mom's spot on the couch, but I just look too cute to make me move.

I think I might get to go to PetSmart tonight. It's very exciting.

Fun at Grandma's

2006-03-03T08:42:00.000-08:00

Mom went and got a Root Canal yesterday, so she wasn't much fun, but she did take me over to Grandma's to play with Rosie for a while. Rosie gets tired of playing way too fast.

I am so tired when I get home.

Auntie Benita Gives Me A Bath

2006-02-27T09:57:00.000-08:00

Mom has been sick so I didn't get to post anything for a few days. I did get my bath last week though.

As you can tell, I'm not very happy about it. Mom says I am soft and look very handsome.

Dash barked at me, I guess glad it was me and not him. :-)

Vet Visit

2006-02-22T07:34:00.000-08:00

Mom said I was very brave at the vet...I got all my shots and everything says I'm healthy. I was very sleepy the rest of the evening though. Tonight I am going to get a bath...the fun just keeps coming.

Hopefully, I will get to go play with Rosie this week. Here is a pic of me and Rosie. I love going to play with her.

My Weekend

2006-02-21T11:47:00.000-08:00

My weekend was good, hung out with my person Beth, went to Grandma's and got to play with Rosie. I'll post a pic of her sometime soon. We got a little snow Saturday, but it was gone by Sunday. That works for me though, I don't like cold feet.

Mom says we are going to the vet today to get my shots, that doesn't sound very good, but I love to ride in the car so it is worth it I guess. I'll let you know how it goes.

My First Entry

2006-02-17T08:25:00.000-08:00

I am so excited to have somewhere to share my adventures with people. I am always finding something new and exciting to get into. I have a great life....my person spoils me rotten, which is the only way to live. I am not going to put to much into my first entry, I just wanted to introduce myself. Check back to see what is going on with me.
