Something Borrowed

Oh, I did mention...my friend Frannie left her hat at my house. 

Actually, it looks pretty swell on me!

Frannie looks pretty good in it too.

Oh Happy New Year....I'm still lovin' Christmas!

First Field Trip 2012

 Folks, the Peoria City Complex has added some awesome features. 

 Behind me an amphitheater - a great place!

 Then..the new field, fantastic grass and open for running!

 OMG - I found a puddle - awesome!

 Ahhh...this is worth a close look....please enlarge by clicking.

 Can I explain how fun this is? No....you have to experience it yourself.

Uh, oh....Grammie doesn't seem to understand my joy. There is a another chapter to this perfect field trip. 

I'll get back to you!

Happy Holidays

Yes, happy holidays but...this is almost a horror story. You see...

my masters left me at home -- ALONE! 

On Christmas Day! 

Some sort of cross-wires or something.  

The human race, they  frequently misunderstand or misinterpret. That rarely happens with my nation! 

My nation uses superior communication skills.

(Think about it.) 

 Thank the canine gods, grampa saved the day.....he and my bonus master came and got me. 

Rescued me from boredom.

I got right to work keeping everyone entertained at the party, because they all wanted to see me. 
I didn't get a rest all day. Bed time couldn't come fast enough...whew!

OOPS

So you know....it rained for days. I was SICK of rain. I got to come to the grams for a respite. Fine. 

Then the sun came out and gramps took me for a walk at the park. 

Geeze...I played ball till I wanted to drop. So...I dropped into the nearest puddle. 

Oh my -- heavenly mud. You gotta love it.

"Hate rain, love puddles."

That's my motto.

No problemo....I totally get it...walk home, jump into the tub. 

Grammie says......"I have NEVER seen so much mud!

Busy Work

I've been pretty busy. I had a modeling assignment. My masters got  a new camera. I had to pose and pose so they could get the settings correct. I mean really....I look good with any old camera.

This gets pretty broing.

Eventually....I have to protest.

Now this is my idea of a picture.

 

Oh I took this one. My masters are celebrating their 2nd anniversary. I have no idea what that is. 

But I like those smiles.

My Cyber Friend

For some reason I don't remember meeting Jaz nose to nose. She  is one of my kind and I think she might have shown me how to swim way back. However we use the cyber space to say in touch. (Honestly I have no idea what that means but grammie says so.) 


Once in a while I catch a whiff of Jaz when my grammie comes home. 
Looks like Jaz loves to eat.....and she cleans her bowl. Good girl!

Forest Fun

My grams took me a long, long way. At first I didn't know the plan...Mexico beach, cabin or Texas. I've been on many, many trips. I KNOW about packing and all that.  When my stuff gets packed  --- then 100% YOU BET YOUR LIFE, I'm in on it.

  

So here I am  oh frabjous day --   hills, trees and rocks. I can spy the cabin and  gramps is always somewhere behind me.

Lotta creatures to chase.

You gotta dig. Never underestimate digging.

Jumping, oh my lord!

Leaping....I know all this stuff.

Long time ago, in my pup days, my master put me in a boot camp and then agility training. Oh...bother, who needs all that?   I am SPRINGER.

You have to look fierce sometimes. 

Oh...a bit tired for sure.

Occasionally grampa tells me to watch and not chase.

Oh good grief...

You gotta love a little puddle.

We went to town one day.
I understand town, no problem.

Coming home, I try hard to stay awake. The grams depend on me.

Live is good.
