merry christmas

if i do say so myself, i allowed my girl and others to take some fabulous photos of me this season. i though i must share them with you:











hope your holiday was happy!

problem?

Yes, it is true that I snag pine cones off the Christmas tree and munch on them in private places. Yes, it is true that I will eat any type of plastic holly berry that I can find in any fashion of Christmas decoration.

So what.

recent pics

i'm keeping watch over motch and p.a.'s house.


sitting pretty.


and with aunt pitty-pat.


my girl can't take a nice picture to save her life, but she does like this one:


i only cooperated for a treat, of couse.

oh the excitement of friday night

my girl thinks i'm weird. does this look weird to you?!


i just wanted to eat some of motch's fiber-y plastic plant.


to distract me, motch let all of us give her kisses. now we were all very excited, because this is not a usual occurance. for some reason, no one in our family likes to get kisses on their face, neck, inside of the nose, and on their limbs simultaneously. i don't know why. but the opportunity presented itself and we took advantage!


after that excitement, petra and i engaged in a rousing game of tug-o-war. you will notice my brother in this video, and you will have the chance to see how WEIRD and STUPID he is. he keeps on kissing well after the kissing game is over. while petra and i play, he continues to kiss THE AIR. HOW STRANGE IS HE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!


all in all, it's a good friday night.

foooooooooood

last night we had to go to that nasty, blood sucking money vacuum that my girl calls the vet. to display my displeasure i actually BARKED at them; i've never done that before. i think they were very scared of my viciousness. in fact, i scared them so much that the doctor got confused and gave me GOOD NEWS! he said i have lost a LOT of weight (i'm down to 20 pounds!!!) and am NOT ALLOWED to lose any more! that means i'll get a little more food every day, yahoo! but i've found something even better! my very own snack moved into the apartment next to us!


i know you can't see him very well in that picture, but that's because we were all hiding behind our curtains and didn't want to scare the neighbors by peering out the window at them with a camera. and my girl said she was wearing her nasty pajamas (i don't know what she means - it's what she wears every single day) and couldn't take me out to "meet" him.


don't be fooled - he is not large. he is about the size of a baseball and would be a PERFECT snack for me. i think he might give me a chance to chase him a little too and work up more of an appetite before enjoying the meal....


i'm HUUUUUUUUUUNGRY! and i'll wait patiently for him.

EXCITEMENT

ohmydog tonight i ate some deeee-lish sugar free gum that leah had in her room and massah freaked out and started calling the dreaded v-e-t and they told her to call the aspca poison line and they charged her $60 over the phone to tell her that she needs to INDUCE VOMITING and i didn't know what that meant but she drove away very very fast in her car and came back to the house with ICE CREAM and she put some fizzy stuff into it and i ate it all really quickly because it was good and then we ran all around the yard very fast and then that fizzy ice cream started fizzing in my innards and then all the fizzy stuff came OUT of my innards and the toxic gum came out with it and i kept HOCKing and HUACKing all over the place but it didn't matter because we were outside on the driveway and finally i stopped HACKing up stuff and she got a spoon and poked all around my puke (WEIRD-O!!) and started smiling really big and giving me hugs and kisses even though my mouth was covered in foamy puke and she called the people who RIPPED HER OFF back on the phone and they said i could not eat or drink anything all night long and massah is going to have to wake me up during the night to make sure i don't DIE because my glucose levels are too low. i was really super hyper after i ate the yummy gum and now...

i'm...


really tired....

Happy (belated) Anniversary, Leah!

how cool that in two years, it chose *this* time to bloom!












love you muchly!

the terrifying and the thrilling

oh my dog, i was attacked by a honking goose last night. i kid you not. i am still too traumatized to talk about it, but these are the images i still see in my mind whenever i close my eyes:






HOWEVER, we got some VERY GOOD NEWS today. and it made me feel much better. guess who the CHICAGO BEARS are getting?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?


JAY CUTLER!!!! oh thank the heavens above that the powers-that-be at the chicago bears somehow lost their minds for a moment today and ACTUALLY SIGNED A GOOD QUARTERBACK!!!!!


massah knew i'd be excited when she told me, so she had the camera out and captured the exact moment she gave me the good news. this is the most excited i've EVER BEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE except the first time i tasted peanut butter:


good times ahead. if i can avoid the attacking goosies.

back to boring

my dog - it's been over two months since i last posted, so you'd think i'd have something thrilling and breath-taking to share. well think again.


this is what's going on around here now.


march madness something-or-other just started. can you tell how excited i am about it all?


heaven help me with this air-licking brother and the tv-watching massah.

therapy dog

We are sad at our house. My grandpa had to go to a nursing home and I have been in comforting-mode. Here I am with Grammy:









She just can't get enough of my loving....

it was me

ooooooooh....


my belly....


too much peppermint stick....


i am sick!

a good girl

i don't have much to say, except that i am being a GOOOOOOOD GIRL!!!! unlike other dogs in the house (if it is a dog... still doesn't look like any other dog i've ever seen....). and here is a picture of me being good and innocent and beautiful.



i'm pretty sure i'm masssah's favorite. just sayin'.

oops

i was busted!!!


what?! i was just... checking leah's desk....


yep, some mints, cough drops, cream, chapstick... everything is there. you're good!
