Graduation Ceremony

Mommy wanted to go to Banana Republic (is that a country?) for a sale.  Daddy and I tried to stroll around The Grove while waiting for Mommy.  There were so many people and they all kept stopping to pet and talk to me that we barely got to walk anywhere.

I have some exciting news to share. Today I graduated from puppy kindergarten. I even passed a STAR puppy test, even though “down” is a bit confusing for me. Mommy and Daddy were so proud of me.   After school, Mommy and Daddy took me to the park to meet new friends. It was a fun day.

Hike Review: Griffith Park

When Daddy went to a party in Vancouver, Mommy and I went on a long hike. It was uphill and I was so tired. Maybe if I had longer legs I would have liked it more. There were lots of people and they stopped to say hi to me.

We went from the Greek Theater to the Observatory and back.

Rating: 2 (out of 4) paws up!

My photo shoot

I’ve been looking out at the Hollywood sign for the past few weeks and I told mommy that I want to be a star.  She said that I need a few headshots and a portfolio to get started.  Here is a preview from our photo shoot. It was fun but tiring too. It’s not easy being so glamorous.

Saturday

Saturday is my favorite day of the week because that’s the day I get to go to school.  This week, Bailey and I played while Lola watched.  The teacher said that I did very well.

Week 4 in class. I get lots of treats at school.

We also went to OSH and I liked sitting in the shopping cart.  It was so cool being pushed around the store.

Walking through doors and up steps

After weeks of using my makeshift doggy door, Daddy built me a nice solid one.  Isn’t it pretty?  Now I can go in and out in style.

After trying out my new door, Mommy taught me how to get on and off the bed using my PupSteps.

Taste of the Wild

Mommy told me that she spent lots of time picking out my food.  I eat Taste of the Wild Puppy formula. It’s yummy but Mommy and Daddy eat a variety of food everyday. They’re so stingy and don’t want to share with me.

Mega Horse

When Uncle Billy told me that he liked horses, I had no idea what he was talking about.  Well, now I know.  I met some mega sized horses. They were even bigger than my Mommy and Daddy!

I’m back

Dear Readers,

I apologize for not updating in a while as I have been very busy at school.  Mommy enrolled me in puppy kindergarten and I’ve constantly been practicing “sit,” “leave it” and “drop it.” Mommy says that I’m the star puppy of the class but I think she’s biased.
