Prodigal Sun

Today, as I lay in the sunny spot on the floor, the Lady told me she has a feeling the kitty and I will get along just fine.


In the park, if we sit in the shade of a tree, I walk out to the end of my leash to find the sun.


Sometimes, when we are running around exercising, I just lay down to soak up some rays.


Don't worry, I roll over to make sure I tan evenly.


My ears keep the sun out of my eyes.


I enjoy the sun even more with The Lady by my side.


Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy. That is the truth.

The Man and Me


I am the Man's first dog. The Man is my first master. So, getting to know each other is taking time.

The Lady loves me, but she is also the task master. She keeps us on schedule. When the Man gets home, I know the fun is about to begin.

Yesterday, the Man took me across the street to explore the school lawn.


At the park, we went for a run. The Lady took video, but she said the Man's name and therefore can't share it here. This is us resting:


Next, we played ball.


Our cool down was a leisurely walk back home. The Lady is usually all business, keeping my head up and my focus on our walk. The Man is more willing to let me stop and smell the flowers.


It's important to always fit some fun into your day. That is the truth.

All Mixed Up

Everywhere we go people ask the same question: "What kind of dog is he?"

The Lady and the Man give the same answer: "Terrier Mix."

Thus begins the great guessing game:

Lab?

Chihuahua?

Greyhound?

Beagle?

The Lady always points to my butt dimples...


and "wings"...


"He is an angel." she tells them all.

Being loved for who you are, not what you are is Heaven. That is the truth.

Put Your Head on My Shoulder


The lady went out and left me completely alone for an hour today, for the first time. When she came back, she totally made up for it. We went for a walk around the house, played in the park, and cuddled inside before I went in my crate to sleep.

Put your head on my shoulder... (hear it on YouTube)

Hold me in your arms, baby...

Squeeze me oh so tight...

Show me that you love me, too <3


It's nice to have a shoulder to lean on. That is the truth.

Reunion and New Union

Yesterday the Lady and the Man took me to Paws in the Park, a fundraiser for Save A Dog. I got to see all the people who took care of me. Big thank you too all of them for keeping in touch through my blog! Binx and Puck, my brother and sister, were there. It was fun to play together again. I hope they each get a Man and a Lady of their very own soon! In all the time we spent at Paws in the Park, I didn't meet a dog or a person I did not like. We were so busy that the Lady did not get to take any pictures, but people took pictures of us. Save A Dog will have pictures up here.

When we got home, the Lady took pictures of me in my "Save a Dog Alumni" bandanna.


At home, I made a new friend. Larry the Loofa. We sleep together...



and play together.

Friends who play together, stay together. That is the truth.

Speechless Saturday



Fabulous Friday



After a mostly sleepless night, I had a great day. The lady made sure I got lots of play time and exercise. She also let me roam more freely around the room while she worked. When she had other things to do, she took me out to do my business and then left me in my crate and I cried less and less each time.

Look at my new trick!

Yes, the Lady taught me to sit :-) Sitting is how I get permission to sit on laps, to play fetch, and more. Sit = Magic.

Then the Man came home. He brought me a rope toy AND a Bully Stick!



Bully Sticks are my favorite!



It's getting better all the time. That is the truth.
