MOMMY IS STILL HOME!

Wow, we are so excited. Usually mommy goes away for the day after 2 days with us, but she is still home with us today. It must be a special day or something. She stayed in the masters lair a lot longer than usual. Daddy came out and let us go potty, then went back to the lair too. Finally he let us in to wake mommy. She was still on her mat, but daddy let us give her cold nose snuggles and mommy didnt seem to mind. Of course dumb Max kept trying to push me out of the way. I am glad he still hasnt figured out how to stand on his back legs, so he can reach mommy like I can. Mommy usually gets up after we give her the cold nose snugglies.

Mommy and daddy are very proud about how well behaved we are when he gives us the food lovin. Of course, mommy pulled out that camera again, and got us on tape. Wanna see how well daddy has taught us to wait?

We just found out who our partner is for the International Goodie Exchange, and now we need to get mommy to the store to buy some goodies. BARK! Sasha the princess!

PS-- Sophie the Shepards daddy stopped by this weekend to thank mommy and daddy for helping in the accident and caring to look for Sophies sister, Brownie. He was happy to report that Sophie is doing well and will soon be out of her crate to be active again. He said Brownie is now more leary of the street and sticks close to his daddy's side on walks near the street. He also said Brownie was very afraid of the Big Barking Sky Dog last week too! Max is glad to hear he is not the only scairdy dog!

WHAT A TREAT!!

Sorry I have been so silent. Mommy has been too busy to sign me on lately. First, I am much much better. We got to go to our friends house again, and she gave me some medicine and it helped. We also got to see some other big dogs. One was even bigger than dumb Max. He was very handsome. I gave him a bark, but he didnt even look at me.

The other night, when mommy and daddy were leaving, she gave us each a really cool treat. We got to lick that creamy light brown stuff from plastic containers. They were almost empty, but there was enough there to keep us busy. Mommy thought it was real funny and took pictures of us before they left.

Later that night, mommy let me drink out of her faucet. That is one of my favorite things. Who wants plain old stale water, when you can get the FRESH flowing kind. She felt bad cause we ran out of water while they were gone. I love when she feels guilty!

We also got good news! Sophie the German Shepard is doing much better. This morning mommy talked to her daddy on our walk (I kept a close eye on that Brownie to make sure she didnt make a sudden move on mommy) and he said she had some stitches but was doing better. Mommy and daddy rejoiced.

Last night I really impressed mommy. We were all hangin' in the backyard and that big mean boy dog started hurling insults at me. I seriously thought about going to the fence and telling him a thing or two, but then saw mommy watching. So I thought a little longer than went to give mommy a tail wag instead. She was so excited, she petted me and told me what a good girl I was.

I heard great gramma is coming to visit this weekend. She is so little, we have to be really careful walking around her. Dumb Max will probably bump into her and make her wobbly. But the good part is that we dont have to go into our crates when she is here! YEH!!!

Sasha- the Princess!

PAW!!! Finally got rid of the princess! Just wanted to jump in here and brag. Mom has been giving me lots of attention because I have learned to walk better. Mom started putting this "thing" around my nose and ears on our walks. She said something about a "Gentle Leader", but I dont think I like that name. Anyhow, it sure gets my attention. It is a lot harder to pull her around now. And boy, she can sure snap that thing to get my attention. It is easier to just stay next to her now, so she doesnt snap it. And guess what, now she loves on me a lot!! On our morning walk, I show off even more, by laying down at our "special spot" right away, and she rewards me with a head pat and biscuit. Then after she gets done reading that book she always reads, and putting her head down for awhile, she gives me lots and lots of love and tells me how good I am. Now I get why The Princess likes do be good all the time. I think I am going to keep trying this. Even after we get home, mom loves me some more. And when she tells dad how good I was, even he comes and loves on me. This is a pretty cool deal! Move over Princess, the Prince has arrived!!

PAW!!! Max the prince!
