I have the bestest Dad in the whole wide world! From what Mom tells me, Dad has never been too keen on little dogs... that is until he saw my irresistable face. Then, it was love at first sight.
Just because it is Father's Day, Mom loaded up some very special pictures... ones of when I a real little guy when Dad first brought me home. This is one of my favorites!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DAD! You are awesome!!!
There I was minding my own business, running after my toy, when all of a sudden a box fell out of the sky right in front of me. (Actually, when Dad threw the toy it hit the box and it fell off the table.) That box scared the daylights out of me and I had to make it pay! I attacked that mean old box, pushed it around the room and tore it all to pieces!
After a short time, my work was done. There wasn't much left to it except shreds of cardboard here and there!
Since we moved back to our own house we haven't had any grass in the yard... only weeds and rocks. I miss being able to run around in the grass. Mom and Dad have been really great about keeping me happy... they have been taking me to a place where there is lots and lots of grass where I can run and play 'til my heart's content.
Dad and I were ready and waiting in the Jeep but Mom was taking forever!
"I'm ready to run! C'mon Dad, throw the toy!"
"Please Dad, please... throw the toy already!"
"Look at me! I can fly..."
"... and hang in mid-air!"
"Whew! I'm getting pooped!"
At one point I was running so fast I couldn't keep up with myself and ended up tumbling head over heels in the grass. Mom and Dad laughed.
Good thing Dad brought along his water bottle. He offered me a drink and I lapped up nearly the whole bottle!
Mom and I spent a lot of quality time together today. I love being with Mom... especially when we snuggled up together while she was watching television.
We also played together with "new bunny". She was teasing me and said I could only have the bunny back if I gave her a kiss.
Well, okay... I'll gave her a little kiss and she still didn't hand over my bunny.
Guess I'll have to give her a big, slobbery one!
Haha! It worked!
This morning I wasn't quite ready to wake up when Dad got ready for work so he left me sleeping with Mom. Well, since Mom works the night shift she stays up really late and sleeps most of the morning away. I tried to wake her up, honest I did, but she wouldn't even move. Guess I need to keep myself occupied until she wakes up! I played with one of Dad's flip-flops, one of Mom's shoes (ones she rarely wears), Mom's wallet (she hardly uses it) and a coffee mug wrapped in tissue paper (I guess it was suppose to be a gift for someone).
When Mom finally woke up I was so happy until she said those four little words... What did you do? Uh oh. I wrecked Dad's flip-flop, Mom's shoe, Mom's wallet and there was tissue paper scattered all over the bedroom! Mom was pretty mad and even threatened to make me sleep in my crate in the bedroom tonight. I don't sleep in my crate in the bedroom very often so I tried to be a good boy the rest of the day. Things were going really well until I had an accident and tinkled on the dining room floor. Those four little words came out of her mouth again. I really hope she forgives me for all the bad stuff I did today and lets me snuggle up next to her in bed tonight.
Sorry for being away so long but Mom was out of town and way busy again after she got home. And since I can't very well type this all by myself, I have to wait on her.
I had a birthday this past Thursday... I turned 2 years old! I was a little disappointed because Mom wasn't home for my birthday but we celebrated and did some fun stuff when she got back. She even bought presents for me!!!
First we had birthday cake and I even got to wear a birthday boy button.
I didn't eat any of the cake though... it was a lemon cake and I thought it smelled kind of funny. I wanted nothing to do with it.
Mom bought me some really nice presents. I got a new collar, a blue one with puppy prints on it.
I guess the puppy prints are reflective but I don't know too much about that since I don't spend much time outside at night. But, Mom says the collar looks really good on me... she really likes how good I look in blue.
And then I got a new toy. It's called "Chuck-A-Duck" I wanted to play with that toy as soon as I saw it!
Dad says the "Chuck-A-Duck" is going to be my outside toy and he even took me for a ride down by the lake to play with it. I just ran and ran and ran the whole time we were there. What a great way to celebrate my birthday! I was so pooped out by the end of the day I just flopped down on a rug and fell asleep.
Oh yeah, I also got a silver cannister with bones on it for my treats. The cannister is pretty nice but it's not anything I can wear or play with. Oh well, at least it will keep my treats fresh.
