Movie Night

This weekend we got to go to a movie. I met lots of new friends. I got to tell them all about my training and how they could get a puppy just like me for their houses. Many gave money and put a Paw on our tree. The tree was full and it was only the first day.Then we watched the movie. I was more impressed with the wonderful treats left behind by others. Who knew under could be so delightful? Mom spoiled all the fun and would not let me eat anything but cheerios or kibble. Sheesh-- a girl can't have any fun!
The movie did make me miss my sister. I gave her a big smooch when we came home. Mom said I was not allowed to do anything I saw in that movie. It was just pretend.

Finally snow!

I kept waiting for the stuff called snow. It finally arrived and I'm having lots of fun.This is me getting a little cold. Its also a good example of my funny looking tail. It's kind of long, doesn't have much hair and I always hold it just like this. half way up and a little bent

We had early Christmas so my Grandparents can be on their way to Arizona for the winter. Aunt Liz appreciated my help with her gift.I got a new nylabone. very tasty!

You are disturbing my chew time Mom.

new baby

I got to go to the hospital today to welcome a new friend. Her name is Ainsley Bryn and she is about 18 hours old. I gave her teeny toes a lick to make sure she was okay. I was excellent in the room and had a small nap while mom snuggled with her. I'm just happy she's not coming home with us. I'm the baby in this house

A new mall

Mom took me to a new mall to do some training. I met my buddies,

had a class, and met Santa

There were real ducks & fish in the pond. I never saw real ones before!

Lightning Rumor Joplin & Pluto practiced the "paw maneuver"

I'm still working on Under & Stay

The next day I saw Santa again. He really gets around!

Party Season

Whew! I'm tired after a full weekend of training. Saturday I braved the winter weather to class at the mall. I like to shop. There were all yellow dogs today.
Then we took a long car ride with Miss Jane & Ukon to Bay City, MI. It was a puppy party! Many of my friends were there. There was a lot of catching up to do. Some of my friends have new jobs but are still part of my PAWS family. Aussie is a camera hog and tried to be in all the pictures. I was too busy snuggling to worry about photos.

Sunday I went to see the Nutcracker Ballet in Brighton. I slept through most of it. That music relaxes me. All the dancers and families wanted to pet me. I told them all about the job I am training for.I also went to my favorite bakery. I had my photo with the Grinch. He smelled like jump & sit bits. Yummy!

Disability presentation

Yesterday I went to a school and gave a presentation for several classes of 2nd graders. I was on my best behavior and turned on the charm for the group. My buddy Lightning came along too. She is such a beauty and so refined. I'm still a little goofy but I've got a lot of spirit. Lightning was a little afraid of the mascot. I figured with a hat like that he must be a friendly kind of guy. Once I said hello to him Lightning decided he wasn't half bad.
Mom says we've got a busy weekend so stay tuned for more of my adventures.
