Sniff Fest 2010

This is Bosley, our 5 year old Portuguese Water Dog.

Bosley has three loves...water, people and other dogs. He believes that every human and every dog was put on this earth to play with him.

Imagine how happy he was to swim in the stream yesterday

with all of these new friends.

He spent over an hour running

playing



chasing

jumping

and swimming.

He's still asleep today.

Give Me One Good Reason

why I shouldn't put the dog out on the street...

He went into my closet, stole my favorite pair of Keens, and then proceeded to eat them.

This is my second pair of orange keens that he has eaten. A couple of years ago I ordered a pair online. The UPS man left them on my doorstep and he tore the box open and buried them to eat later. Luckily I found them and had the opportunity to wear them once before he took them out of the shoe basket and ate them down to their soles.

And you know, that I most certainly will be taking him to the vet when he has issues getting the material out of his body. (We've been there before!)

It's a good thing he's so cute!

Please note the huge bison bone we gave him for his birthday yesterday. Now that he is 5, you would think that he would be over chewing shoes!

The Dog Ate Tyler's Retainer

For real.
I can't wait to hear Tyler when he calls Uncle Jeff to tell him that he needs a new retainer. Good thing he likes babysitting.

Priceless

5 Russell Stover Solid Chocolate Easter Bunnies $16

Emergency Trip to the Pet ER to induce vomiting $160

Chicken and Rice diet for 3 days $25

5 new Russell Stover Solid Chocolate Easter Bunnies (not the same) $25

Making sure the Easter Bunny leaves a decent basket for all 5 kids... PRICELESS!

Yes, the damn dog ate two 7 oz. chocolate bunnies. Apparently, he was one ounce short of a toxic dose. They induced vomiting anyway to be sure that he would be okay. Now he's running around like a lunatic.

Happy Easter!

What's Wrong With This Picture?

The fun never ends around here.

Happy.

When I wait to long to get Bosley groomed, I take him to Petco because I am too embarrassed to take him to our usual groomer. Whenever he comes home he looks pretty goofy. Today I was pleasantly surprised when I went to pick him up. While not the best hair cut, he has definitely had worse. Usually he is embarrassed after a Petco grooming but today I think he is just so happy that he can see again! He's been running circles around the house since we got home.

Before.

How 'Bout Them Ravens?

We're Wacco for Flacco!
It's hard work being a fan!

Life is Wuff

This was the sight last night right before I went to bed. Both the dog and the child slept through the flash! And yes, I know my dog needs a hair cut. It's on the list of things to do....
