The Woof Pack

Hi Furiends!

My BFF Maggie and I are thinking about starting a doggy gang.  Her Mom bought us these super cool matching black zip-up hoodies.  Don't we look awesome!  We are thinking of getting them embroidered with our club name:  The Woof Pack!!!  Or maybe with our initials, just like Laverne and Shirley!

Speaking of shopping, my Mommy went on a little shopping spree the other day.  She says she bought some stuff for me, but she won't tell me what it is.  I can't wait to find out!!!  Perhaps it will be delivered by my very own courier service:

I don't remember starting a courier service, but I guess I must have.  Does anybuddy need anything delivered??

A Playdate With My Bestest Friend!

Hi Everybuddy!

I had a super-fun playdate on Saturday with my bestest friend in the whole world!  Maggie is so tiny and cute.  I just love her.  She is such a good jumper and she loves to get up in the planter boxes.  I wanted her to come down and play with me, since I'm not such a good jumper and I can't really get up in the planter boxes.  Eventually she came down and we played a little bit of chase and also found some sticks to chew on.  This was Maggie's first stick chewing experience!

Mommy made a scrapbook page about our fun afternoon.  I hope you like it!

Me and My Best Friend

Hi Furiends!

I had a playdate on Friday with my best friend Maggie.  It was part playdate and part celebration of her One Year Found Day!  Her Mommy and Daddy found and rescued her from a busy street one year ago.  What a happy day that was for Maggie, and for her parents, too.

She came over to my house and we played in the backyard.  We did some ambling and some chasing.  It was a great day because it was the first time we played chase where Maggie wasn't running because she was a tiny bit scared of being chased by me--she was running for the pure fun of it!  We were really playing well together!  After we played chase, Maggie found a slug to roll in!

When we were bored with the backyard, we went on a walk to the park.  It was a nice warm sunshiny "Indian Summer" day.  Look at us walking together like buddies!

At the park we did a little more ambling.  Maggie rode on a swing with her Mommy!  I tried it too, but it wasn't really my thing.  In this picture you can see that we are "crossing the streams" like in Ghostbusters!

I hope you had a very nice weekend too!  I've got to go now because it's almost time for my Howloween photo shoot.  Did you guess what I'm going to be?  I'll give you another clue: I'm going as a type of fruit!  Bye for now!

A Playdate With My Friend

Hi Everybuddy!

I had a really fun playdate yesterday with my friend Maggie.  She is so tiny and I love her!  Sometimes Mommy has to remind me that she is smaller than me and that I shouldn't run up and push my face into her face because she might be scared.  This is hard for me to understand because usually I am the smallest dog.  I sometimes forget that I'm bigger than her.

One of our favorite things to do together is play chase around the backyard.  We are very zoomie.  Maggie is pretty fast.  If I didn't have back problems, I would be as fast as her though, and don't you forget it!

I will catch up to you, Maggie!  Boing boing zoom zoom ruuuuuuunnnnn!!!  Daddy says, "Not so fast Poppy!  You don't want to hurt your back!"

Phew!  That was fun!  Did I catch you?  Or did you stop?  Well, let's not quibble over details.

After running, it's good to have a little snack.  Our garden is overflowing and Daddy picked these produces for me!  (You know how I love produce.)  At least I thought they were for me, but then I didn't get to have hardly any!  Only one small cherry tomato!  I did my best to let everybuddy know what I wanted by scratching on this big tomato.

After snacks, we did sunbathing.  We are both very fond of sunbathing.  Maybe someday we will lie right next to each other in the sun like good bestest friends.  But for now, we will choose our own sunbathing spots.  I chose the dusty goldfine because it is a little bit soft.  Maggie chose the patio.  She was close to the water bowl for easy access.  Smart!

I hope you have a fun weekend with your family and friends!

My Busy Summer Schedule

Hello Everybuddy!

Oh, gosh, I am so behind because I have been so busy!  Summer sure is great!  Let me tell you all about what I have been up to lately.

I had a playdate with my friend Maggie the week before last.  It was fun!  We met in her backyard and tried to play together, even though it was a veeeeery hot day.  We spent a lot of the time sitting in the shade on the patio.  I kept trying to get inside where I thought it would be cooler.  That's why I'm sitting by the door.

Once the shade hit the lawn, we decided it would be okay to go play on the grass.  We did a little bit of chase, but mostly we ambled.  Chihuahuas are very good at ambling.

Then on Monday, Mommy went to a special doggy store and got me a special treat!  It was a big butterfly cookie!

It was a little bit hard to eat at first because it was so big and hard.  But I worked at it and eventually I broke it into smaller pieces and I ate it all!

Then last week we did a big camping adventure.  It was so much fun!  I love camping!  We went to a beautiful place in the forest near the beach.  It's the best of everything!  It was a little bit chilly at night, but Mommy and Daddy do a good job of bundling me up when it gets cold.

The next day we went to the beach.  It is a special beach that has purple sand!  It was very windy, but we still had lots of fun.  I got to chew some sticks and run in the sand and have a picnic, too.

I hope you are having as nice a month as I am having!

Playdate Fun!!!

Hi furiends!

This is my friend Maggie. We have been having regular playdates lately because our parents are tired of other big meanie dogs attacking us at the park. It's happened to each of us at least once, and let me tell you, it is No Fun At All! So now we get to have playdates in one of our backyards instead. One time we even had another chihuahua join us. He was just a puppy, so Maggie and I had to tell him who's boss (us, of course).

You can tell that I like Maggie a whole lot because I am letting her sniff my butt.  I don't to that very much at all.  Mostly I like other doggies to stay away from my rear end.  So this means I think she is pretty awesome!

Bye for now, and enjoy the sunshine!
