Surfin' Safari

I know that summer is officially over, but here in Southern California the die-hard surfers catch the waves all year round. In Brazil it's the canines who take center stage in surfing competitions. As for me - well, I hate water, so I'll stick with soccer as my favorite recreational pastime.

A Day for Wild Animals

On Sunday I went to doggy day care while Mommy and Daddy went to the San Diego Wild Animal Park.



I got to act like a wild animal and play with all the dogs while they visited wild animals from the plains of Africa and Asia.



Hurry up, Mom - I'm dying to go inside and play with all the dogs!



let me in! let me in!

meanwhile, at the wild animal park, my Mommy and Daddy saw all sorts of animals roaming free over several acres of land.



a family of elephants with their one-month old baby



a rhino with her one-week baby



and a family of lions. The mom and dad are hanging out on the roof while the three cubs chill inside the suv. where I live everyone has TVs in their SUVs - I wonder why these kids, I mean cubs, don't get to watch Lion King DVDs...



What a day! I'm tired!

Nightlife Has Gone To The Dogs

What do you get when you mix alcohol, dogs and their owners? If you were going to say drunken pandemonium then you'd be half right. But no, it's a new concept called "SkyBark" which bills itself as "pet friendly nightlife". Check out their promotional video.

Ever wanted to go clubbing with your canine pal? Now you can!

Blast From The Past

Here's me as a puppy sometime around January of last year. I've long since destroyed the wool bed that I'm laying on in the picture. Now I lounge on the humans' couch when they're not home. They trust me now -- I've outgrown my destructive puppy phase.

How about sharing your puppy pics on your blogs? Many of us canine bloggers didn't start blogging until we were adults. That means there are loads of puppy pics that the world has not seen! Why not share them...

P.S. My blog turns one year old today! Here's my first post. It's been a fun year and I've met a lot of great canine blogger friends. Here's to another great year!

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 :-(
