Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to wish everyone a very safe and wonderful Christmas. Unfortunatly I will not be able to get on and post any more updates for about three weeks as I wont have access to mum's computer.

Also I don't have any new pictures so I'll just leave you with the one above.

Also I'd like to thank everyone who comments on my blog and all my friends who even though I don't always get a chance to leave a comment on your blog always regulary come and leave one on mine. Wooo Wooo! Thanks guys, your the best.

Till Next Time-

I will talk to you all in the new year!

The Beach

Hey Guys!

Well the other afternoon mum had a bit of free time so she decided she'd take me to the beach if I promised to be good... Well of course I was on my best behavour - until I got in the car, after all I was already on the way, she couldn't just turn around.

It was heaps of fun and I got to run in the sand, although I wasn't allowed in the water as mum didn't bring anything to dry me with or put on the floor.

I don't have any photos because it was too windy for mum to hold me and take photos - I was a little excited and kept running as fast as I could to the end of my lead.

However here is a photo of my jeep. She's beautiful isn't she?

Two - just because I love her so...

On a differant note - Mum has informed me that even though I'm still going to be getting a baby brother - it just wont be the one we saw in the picture. Unfortunatly the 'breeders' seemed less then repertable and mum has decided to wait just a little bit longer for that perfect pup.

We will keep the name list and everything else for when the perfect little brother for me comes along. Good things come to those who wait.

Evil Cat!

Hi Everyone!

Well as you know the Evil Cat - dubbed Pus, has been my enemey since day one (although I secretly enjoy playing with him). He was just sitting minding his own business for once, probably thinking up evil plans on how to attack me next when mum picked him up and deposited him right infront of me wearing a little something 'extra'.

As you can see, mum couldn't wait to try the hoodie she bought for my new brother out so the smallest pet in the house is the cat... Woo Woo - He did not appreciate being dressed up, in a Pup hoodie no less.

It was the perfect opportunity for me to get a little revenge... as you can see he had no option but to lie there for me to attack!

He did try in vain to fight back but cats don't seem to have much balance when they wear clothing and all he could do was flop on the floor.

Victory was mine!

As you can see (above) mum has made me put up a ticker to inform you how old my baby brother is. When he is 8 weeks old he'll be coming to live with us. Woo... I am getting excited now even though I'm dreading sharing my blog.

Mum also really likes the names Visa, and Cashew (Cash for short) but she isn't 100% sold on them yet. Her boyfriend keeps saying they are silly names. The saga continues.

Thanks for all the nice comments about the photos... I don't think it's my mum's ability to take nice photos - just my abilility to make them look nice. Also she uses an Olympus E-10 and loves it, even though she doesn't know all the features yet.

Till Next time -

Oh Christmas tree...

Hey everyone!

Well as you can see mum uploaded the photos for me. Yay!

It was a fairly warm day when mum put the christmas tree up, here I am helping her as best I can. Teddy was upset though so I had to do a little 'conforting' for him. After a good chew I got straight back to work and helped with the rest of the tree.

Here it is fully up. I find it strange that we have to build trees when nobody builds them outside... they kind of just keep getting bigger. This one smelt funny too. I've never smelt one like this before. As you can see mum did a very bad job of filling in holes on the tree, she said that she hated putting the tree up as her mum bought the biggest one she could find and that if she did a bad enough job she wouldn't have to keep putting it up. So after the tree went up mum decorated it with very pretty decorations. She had a lot to choose from but only used as little as possible - saying somthing about christmas trees should not take three hours to decorate. She put pretty lights on it and then it was time for me to step in...
Posing is what I do best...

Even the cat got in on the action - I felt bad afterwards for thinking it but I really hoped that the tree would fall on him.

I did some more posing for mum to snap up loads of photos.



Then I smelt something yummy and my tongue just flopped right out. I was hot, hungry and thirsty and all mum wanted was that 'last photo'...

So I gave it to her. Woo woo.

Good news!

The little boy puppy is going to become my baby brother. I'm secretly a bit excited because everyone looks like they have so much fun playing bitey face with their siblings and friends and it'll be good to have someone to teach the ropes.

Mum got the news this morning and has already gone out and bought a few things for him. She gets too excited, this one.

We've loved all the names suggestions so far, my fave is of course Dbff... Mum still isn't convinced on the idea though.

She has a few that she has thought of as well, so far we have (including your suggestions):

Bender

Nibbler

Doppler (Effect) {It's a pretty cool thing, something to do with sound waves}

Dbff

Contrast

Cannon

Olympus (mum uses this brand)

Nikon

Pixel

Oliver

Chaplin

Christopher

These are some new ones that she likes:

Dorito (mmm can I eat him?)

Cashew

Rogan (Josh)

Roth

Coke (acola)

Cider

Hershey

And she really likes Dante, it means lasting so that's kind of cool.

Anyway, keep the suggestions coming. The wakier and weirder the better as mum likes to name after objects - I'm lucky I didn't get Carrot.

-Till next time

I'm so angry!

Hi everyone.

I'm extremly angry as I promised you all pictures of my christmas tree - but mum hasn't put them onto the computer for me yet. She said she has been really busy and her computer has cracked the poopies... Well I have too!

On a side note - I did have my very first ride in mum's new Jeep yesterday and let me say one thing:

FUN!

I loved it. I used to fall off the back seat in her old car as I was too big but now I get the whole wagon to myself! I can go from side to side and when mum winds down the back windows I can sit with my head in the middle and get wind from both sides... Pure joy, thats what it is.

I can't beleive I'm going to help mum after what she has done to me (which is ruin my life!) by not putting the photos on the computer, but I love her still and I said I would, and I always hold up my end of the bargain, unlike her.

Apparently my new baby brother might be coming a bit sooner then first thought (Not sure if I should be happy or not about this) and she is having a mental block for names. She likes Bender and Nibbler but knows they are pretty common.

She is a mad digital photographer (when she wants to be) and would love his name to be something relating to that... Or relating to black and white as he is a Boston Terrier. So if you guys have any suggestions we'd love to hear it.

It's already started, his taking over my blog!

Here is a sneek peak of the little blighter, he may or may not be available we just have to wait a bit longer to see. As you can see he has a little white tip on his ear - that is kind of cool. I vote we call him Doofusbrainfartface but mum didn't really like that name. She said it was too long... We could just call him Doofface for short?

Till Next Time -

Hi everyone! Just a quick update (with shoddy camera phone photos)... Mum and her boyfriend came home last night and decided to decorate shoes. They bought some cheap high tops and some paints and used some scrap booking items.
Here I am checking it out and approving... They smell funny!

And here is the finished product. The other one just has a ribbon through some rivets.

They decided to decorate their shoes for when they go camping - they have to wear them every day... Mum said hers are a bit small and her her feet... so that could be interesting.

Till Next Time -

It's on the way...

No photos again today as my mum is the laziest person alive! However just thought I'd let you all know that mum is going to put the christmas tree up this weekend! I'm so excited. It means there is only 25 days till christmas (as she puts it up on the 1st) and I get my present.

She told me this morning that I'm going to love my present! Oh I hope so. I can't wait!

So next update will be with some photos and my christmas tree..

Till Next Time -

Old Nanna

Hey everyone!

Not much to report - didn't get to go four wheeling again as it's just been too hot and mum worries about me in the car on hot days as I've got so much fur. She said as soon as it is a nice day she'll take me. Yay.

Sorry no photos today, mum hasn't had time to jump on the computer at home.

Mum is getting really excited about a couple of things. First Christmas - Now we all know thats a fun time of the year. I was given to mum as a chirstmas present 8 years ago so it holds a special place to me too. Also after christmas mum is going camping for a week. Unfortunatly I have to stay home because I don't have any respect for tents... I tend to roll on them as it's a lot of fun! Then my new brother will hopefully be born sometime at the start of next year and I'll have a new play mate! I'm excited about this one the most.

Till Next Time -

Attack of the killer beast...

Wow - would you look at that... two posts in two days. I'm going for a record now. I hope your all impressed with that! So my story for the day - that cat is evil! I was just laying here sucking on my teddy, it is my fave toy after all. Although I'm partial to the weird spokey toy too, but that's another story.

I was in my own little world, just me and my teddy. We were somewhere nice, where the weather was perfect and there was white sands and crystal blue water... Just me and Ted at the beach...

All of a sudden a black figure stalked close - head low and silently padding his way towards me. I was completely unaware of anything except lapping up my Ted...

*POUNCE* I was knocked to the ground, not having any time to react to such a horrific attack. The cat grabbed hold of me by the throat and bit down as hard as he could.

We struggled and rolled and tossed around. I tried in vain to get him off me and ...

I managed to dislodge him to my leg - which he still proceeded to attack.
I was really enjoying that day dream of being at the beach with Ted too.

Till next time -

(ps- Hope you like the new background... It suits me right down to the ground... whatever that means)

Gardening

Hi every Doggy!

In advance mum would like to say a huge SORRY to everyone because she couldn't work out the format on this thing - she has tried but hasn't cracked the codes as of yet... so to speak. She will keep trying. In the process she managed to loose all my links! I'm so angry with her right now.

However... She has uploaded some new photos of me! Woo wooO!

So the other weekend mum's other half came round and helped my mum's mum with the gardens - they were a bit over grown. So being the good gal that I am I had to pitch in and help. Although I'm still unsure why I get yelled at when I try to help garden on my own when no body is home.

As you can see this stick was not where it was meant to be, I sniffed it for a while and even considered picking it up and putting it in the green waste bin - however I decided that I didn't want to take the fun away from everybody else so I laid down and watched them all working away like busy little ants.

And then that's when I spotted the grass! Look how long it is! I live down the bottom of Australia where there isn't any jungles but you know what? I think I found one in my very own back yard!

After watching everybody working in the heat I thought of a great idea! Drinks! Everyone would be thirsty so I thought I'd get them all a drink to help ease the heat and keep them hard at it. Only when I got there I forgot what I was doing and managed to drink the whole lot!

After drinking so much water I got the biggest belly ache and was rolling around on the grass like I'd been shot... I hate tummy aches.

As I was exploring I came across this little guy. He wasn't very friendly and kept flying off but it didn't stop me from trying to make friends. I'm a friendly girl who just wants to know everyone.

I also found these two flowers that are so pretty. Although the second one is more weird then anything... I gave them both a good sniff and they seemed to be healthy and fine without me needing to 'garden' them at all.

I also gave the bug a very good talking to, something so small should not be out in bright daylight... A bird could come and eat him! WooWoo.

After a hard days work mum found me here - fast asleep only to wake up to the sound of my name being called. Wow, who knew gardening would be so hard!

Till next time -

New format promised for the weekend

Thanks everyone for my birthday wishes!

In the morning mum gave me a big kiss and cuddle and said she had a suprise for me when she got home from work! When she got home she said that we were going to the beach! I was so excited! I love the beach. It's one of my favourite places to be. I love the water, sand, everything!
Onto other things - Mum is desperatly trying to find a christmas jingle bell collar type thing that she saw River wearing in his photo shoot... She told me that if anyone could help, if they've seen it online for sale or anything it would be greatly appreciated. Now I personally don't want to wear one, but she told me she'd give me lots of treats if I promised to wear it and pose. Mmm, I love treats!

Mum said that we are hopefully still going four wheel driving on the weekend. I hope we get to go as I've been waiting for ages and it sounds like so much fun. She also said that since she has the whole weekend to herself (her other half is going to Tasmania to visit friends) that she is going to try and update this format of my blog and hopefully get it to something that suits me just that little bit more. It should be interesting because she hasn't done any HTML for a long time... I wonder what HTML stands for.. maybe "Hot Tall Male Labradore"

As always - mum has a ton of photos on her new fancy camera that she took of me when I was helping her other half and her mum do some gardening. Of course though, she hasn't put them on the computer yet. Her excuse has now changed to "But I have dial up at home". Whatever the case she also promised that on the weekend she is going to try and set up a gallary type thing so all my old photos can be uploaded. I can't wait! I have so many!

Oh and lastly - A couple of other pups asked about my brother to be in a prevous post. Mum told me to say that in the new year (hopefully January some time) I will be getting a new little brother. A Boston Terrier. She thinks that he will perfectly compliment my activity level and play levels as they are apparently pretty boistorous. I have to admit that I'm looking forwards to zoomies around the house but not looking forward to sharing anything. Oh and I'm certainly looking forward to ganging up on that cat!

Anyway, until next time -

Special feature picture show!

Yay! Mum said the big spider - called Harry - is now gone to spidey heaven. She wasn't overly fond about having the little guy extinguished but she said there was no choice and it was either him or her! Well actually it was just that the guy she got to help her at the car wash couldn't see anyway not to kill him so he got a big *WHACK* with his thong (flip flop for americans, mum told me I had to clarify) and the spidey curled up and died! So now I'm happy to go in the back of the car again.

After lots of comments on that last picture mum said I should post the whole set that she took of me on the day. At least she thinks they are all from the same shoot. She said she takes too many photos of me - I say she doesn't take enough! Anyway, here is the rest of the series - I think I've posted most of them before.

I got laughed at this morning - It's not my fault that I was just laying there looking at nothing and just so wanted to wag my tail... Mum thinks it was because I wanted the evil cat to play with it but I hold true to the fact I do not like that cat! He tried to get me really bad this morning, I have bite marks to prove it. Yay! It's almost Christmas! I've never really understood why Christmas is so exciting as I generally just over eat and lay around looking sorry for myself. Which brings me to my next bit of useless peice of information: Mum got me for Christmas when she was 12! That was 8 years ago. Wow - time has flown and we have both grown up so much!

Mum said that in two weekends we're going four wheel driving. We were supposed to go last weekend but it rained too much and mum's tires wouldn't have been able to hold up to it as they are just highway tires. She said the this time she is going to take me and that I have to hold on tight because it's going to be a bumpy ride! I'm so excited about it. I can't wait to show you the pictures.I can't beleive I nearly forgot! It's my Birthday tomorrow and I'm going to be 8! Dog, I feel so old! Mum tells me she wishes I'd act my age though as I'm always doing something crazy. Hmmm, I wonder whether mum has anything planned for me? I know she has to work and all but maybe after work she can take me to the beach! That'd be awesome. I hope she got me a new toy as well.

Anyway I best be off as I don't really have anything new and exciting to say.

Till next time -
