Boxer Jedi Mind Tricks

I found a great video on the web about Jedi Boxer Mind Tricks. Take a look.

And yeah, that's me above as Obi Wan Kenobi.

Friday Night Party Time

Last night Mommy was away on a school field trip. It was just me and my Dad at home -- so he broke out the good stuff and we watched some shows he recorded on his DVR the past week.



Daddy said he was taking a shot of whiskey to calm his cough -- he's been sick all week. I was very interested in this amber colored liquid so he let me take a whiff. Woo, I nearly burned my entire nasal cavity smelling that stuff!

Now I know whiskey ain't for dogs. I'll stick with beer, thank you very much.

Scenes from Last Weekend

Cassidy and I had a great time together as you can tell from our new theatrical trailer. I enojyed being a big sister to Cassidy the pup. Here are some photos from our adventures last weekend:

trying out a new wrestling move...



kissing...



at the park...



two boxers looking for trouble...

A Houseguest for the Weekend

My neighbor Cassidy is spending the weekend with us. Here's the promotional clip for our new film coming out this Christmas

Trick and Treat

Here's a video my grandpa shot on my vacation.



The panting sound you hear is my uncle Rocky.

Cairo the Grand-doggy

Finally! some pictures from my vacation (when my parents left the country last month).

Here I am with my uncle Rocky. My grandparents took us to play at the park.



I love eating grass. It doesn't taste that good--but it's everywhere! and it's so much fun to rip out of the ground after running around the park. Rocky seemed confused as to why I enjoyed eating this stuff. He says it's for cows and sheep, not dogs (he's a lot older and wiser than I am).



My grandparents really wore me out at the park everyday. So when I returned to their house I was pooped!



I can't wait for my parents to go on another vacation so I can spend time with my grandparents.

Scenes from a Lost Weekend

Here I am on my bed. The humans only think it belongs to them.

Here I am with my new friend Ben. He came to visit me.

Mommy thought I'd look cute showing my feminine side, so she put this bow around my neck

But I'm such a tomboy, I was able to take the bow off within ten minutes

Did I Have A Fun Day or What!

When my parents leave for work in the morning they always put a gate in front of our stairway. I stay downstairs and have a doggie door to enter the backyard. The upstairs of the house is off limits while I'm home alone. My parents don't trust me to be alone up there.

Today, when Mommy left the house she forgot to put the gate in front of the stairway. I had free reign throughout the entire house all day! When she returned home Mommy said it looked like some bachelors threw a wild party in our house. There were shoes, shirts and bras spread throughout different rooms of the house.

I obviously had a fantastic time! I jumped on my parents' bed and tore all the blankets to the ground. I thought about eating Daddy's soccer magazines but instead chewed up one of his shoes really good (he said he would have been really mad if I ate the magazines).

They aren't mad at me because they know it's their fault.

They're Back!

My parents are back from vacation. They spent ten days in Argentina. They visited glaciers in the Southern Andes/Patagonia, toured the capital city of Buenos Aires and spent a day in Uruguay. They showed me all of their pictures.

Here are some cute Argentinian perros that they encountered:



This is Felipe. My parents met him and his owner near the cemetary where Evita Peron is buried in Buenos Aires.



Most portenos (residents of Buenos Aires) live in apartments. Thus, their perros (dogs) don't have much room to run and play. So they hire dog walkers called pasadores to walk their dogs during the work day. Some pasadores walk up to 20 dogs at once--and they all get along just fine!



One day my parents took a ferry across the bay from Buenos Aires to Uruguay.

The ferry boat did not allow dogs :-(

The humans are going away for a couple weeks and I will be staying with my grandma and grandpa. I'll tell you about all my adventures when I (and my parents) return home!

Five Weird Things About Me

Aug 06 020, originally uploaded by Cairo The Boxer.

The Dachsies tagged me with a meme called "Five Weird Things About Me".

The player of this game starts with "5 weird things/habits about yourself." Then you tag 5 friends and list their names. The furries who get tagged need to write on their blogs about their 5 weird things/habits, as well as state this rule clearly, then tag 5 more victims. Don't forget to leave your victim a comment that says "you're tagged!" in their comments and tell them to read your blog.

Here is my meme:

1. When my parents give me a treat or a cookie, I bat it around like a hockey puck. I also love hiding them underneath the pillows of the couch. While I may not eat the treat right away, I keep it saved for a midnight snack.
   
2. I hate water. But I'll jump into the bathtub if my parents have the tub filled with warm water and soapy bubbles. I like to be clean.
   
3. Sometimes I am afraid to walk down the carpeted stairs and step on the wood floor. Because my nails are long I lose my footing on the wood floor and scatter around. Daddy calls it "Scooby Doo" and he laughs!
4. During the winter I sleep at the foot of my parents bed underneath three layers of covers. Somehow I manage to breath through a sheet, blanket AND down comforter. In the summer I sleep on the floor because it is too hot.
   
5. Even though I'm a spayed female, I like to hump my Mom or Dad's legs before I sleep. At first Daddy used to get mad at me, but now he just laughs when I do it, because I make a funny face.

Bonus weird fact about me: I am a dog and I have a blog!

I will tag Cassidy, Bella, Ellie, Delilah and Brody.

Sniff Sniff

By this time I was quite tired and out of breath. Cassidy was able to get close and sniff me while I lied down on the cool grass.

Cairo Meets Cassidy

On Saturday morning I met Cassidy. She is ten weeks old, and quite spunky. I'll be posting pictures of our encounter soon, but here is a video for now...

There's A New Boxer In Town...

Go say hello to Cassidy. My mommy met Cassidy and her parents at Fashion Island. It turns out they live only a few blocks away from our house. Hopefully we'll get to play really soon. I can't wait to teach a baby Boxer some of my favorite tricks.
