Your Favorite PUPPY is back!!!!!!!

Hi everyone I'm back!

Did you miss me? I tried hard to miss you, honestly.

I am sorry I have been away for so long. Think I was in the witness protection programme or imprisoned for a crime I didn't commit. (Well actually I've committed a few but underage wrong doing's doesn't count, does it?)

Anyway I returned home from a lovely rest at the 'seaside', (that was a rest? I was so busy!) hope you like my pictures.

Here I found all those nasty builders have left our house and now I have so much to explore. Fun..........

I'm getting older now but they still call me a puppy, although they were proved right the day we got back. I started running round and round the house, checking rooms, sniffing here and there, I got so excited that even at my age I leaked a little puddle. So they sent me outside and I realised I had forgotten our garden. I'm stupid! So I had to run round there as well.

Gosh coming home is very tiring. Our house looks and smells all wrong! I suppose I am going to have to start putting my touches everywhere, needs a few of my smelly hairs and drool drops! How am I going to sleep, it's all so .....what's the word......CLEAN!!!!

Well I just wanted to let you know I am back and I will tell you later this week some of the adventures that we got up to while we were away.

I must go visit the kitchen I've forgotten where they keep the cookie jar, I'm so hungry! Oh my I've forgotten where they keep the kitchen, they moved me out and the kitchen, now where did they put it?

Help....must eat, must sleep, so hungry, so tired, bye for now............Great to be back.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEUCE

Just wanted to post a quick greeting to my best friend Deuce who is ONE year old today.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Have a super Paw-ty, wish I could be there.

Keep cool in the heat my friend.

Always remember we super puppies rule

Puppies Blog Dedication

Today's posting is in memory of a very special Goldie.

This was the dog that lived with my family before I came along. They say that she was very gentle and kind and wouldn't hurt a fly. Me I eat them and spiders and moths! Yummy.

But sad to say she was ill and died, 6 months later I arrived and did all I could to help my familys pain. Today we visited her resting place which is on a wonderful hillside in the open country. Me, oh bury me outside MacDonalds, all those fallen fries, yes please. I'll haunt the eaters.

Over the next couple of days you will see a change to my regular postings and a reason, tell you more later...

Gotta go, cats in the garden. Wish he was buried there!!!

Puppy 'Drop Out'

Oops I'm a little whitewashed out of this picture! Nice size sticks though.

Well my report on the puppy training school graduation ceremony from last night.................................................................

Oh are you still reading?

Okay so it didn't go too well. But I was tricked and cheated out of my degree.

The teacher played a dirty game last night. In order to see how much I had learned she brought her dog along to the class to judge my reaction and to see if I still remembered my lessons.

No of course I didn't!

They called my name for a recall, well I was checking out the new dog wasn't I.

They said sit, I never heard, well I was checking out the new dog wasn't I.

They said down.

Well you get the picture.

So no passing grade marks for me. Except everybody says that I am just a fraction better than I was.

How did I do that then?

We came home.

If that's over can I now please return to the lovable pup I always was?

Ha Ha

Just think of all the extra doggie biscuit bones they could have bought with the money they wasted.

This morning back to normal, out on our usual puppy walk. I ran through the mud, stole sticks off the Big Black Dog and yes they did do a recall and I ran over to their side so fast. Knew it they gave me a treat. Gobbled that down and straight back to the mud. Why do they bother with it, but who am I to stop them. Seems to keep them happy.

I think now I'll go and have a little puppy nap in the afternoon sun, feel a little tired after my late night.................see you tomorrow.......

Super Puppy v. CAT!!!

Hi there,

First have to say this is a very quick & short post for me because in a minute I have to prepare for Puppy School Graduation 2007. (I don't think for a second that yours truly will be graduating!)

Ha Ha

But my news today was to ask you "Have you ever licked a cat?"

My advice Don't. They taste awful! Their hair is all short, stubby and rough.

My family got up very early this morning and I went outside into the garden about 6:30am (yes am, I couldn't believe it either, I was fast asleep!) It was all very quiet in the neighborhood, when suddenly under the gap in the fence I saw the cat from next door. He was sleeping out there, I saw my chance so I stuck my tongue under the fence, Yucky!

You should have heard the noise as he flew away into his garden, the lady came rushing out accusing me of attacking her cat. How could I get hold of him.

Funny start to my day, but then we had an early puppy walk and everybody had to be somewhere, I was stuck with a puppy sitter again.

Well I have to go now, I wonder if they have a cap and gown in my size?

Will let you know of my graduation ceremony tomorrow........

Strong Puppy

Super Strong Puppy here, hello everybody.

I got into big trouble this morning, well we went out on our usual puppy walk, the sun was shinning and I was having such fun running here and there and everywhere.

All of a sudden I saw him, a Goldie looked just like me, well what would you do, of course I had to say hello. I'm friendly....

When I reached him however he wasn't friendly at all, he started barking at me, so I barked back. The noise was deafening, my family was not impressed and what did they do. Put me on the leash!

Okay so maybe I rushed at him in my usual way, straight into someone at 102mph! Life's too short to run slowly.

I didn't like being on the leash and maybe just maybe I pulled a little too hard, I don't know my own strength. The next thing I saw was one of my family flat on the grass as I ran back to 'talk' to this dog. Then I made matters worse by jumping up at his owner as well, I wasn't muddy today! This man got hold of me until my family came over, boy were they cross with me.

And guess what: I was so strong that I even broke my leash, snapped at the collar end, wow, it impressed me, no one else though.

I thought yeah free, no way. They put me on the Big Black Dogs leash, she got to walk back free.

All the way back to the car, in the car and at home they kept telling me off.

I kept hearing why do we go to puppy training school? I kept thinking I've been saying that all the time, what a waste!

So I crept off to the garden and decided it was best to keep a very low profile today.....wonder if it is now safe to ask for a doggie chew? I'll go and find out. Put my best sorry face on and as long as I have a home here tomorrow I'll be back to see you all...........bye.....

Puppy Paws

Hi everybody,

Super Puppy here, fit, healthy and raring to go again. Yes I have bounced back from my death bed!

Had a great morning puppy walk, ran and ran until my little, no long, legs were tired. Saw a couple of rabbits but decided no, today they can live.

The family are being a little strict with me and keep shouting NO! I try to ignore them. What can you do, if you have managed to sneak a piece of toast at breakfast time, there is no NO big enough to make me drop it, I can tell you. I love to run to the garden and eat in peace and quiet. I always beat them, by the time they catch up with me the toast has gone, ha ha.

When we arrived back after our walk I wanted to check out the new area of our house, some men, called painters (what's a painter?) have delivered lots and lots of interesting things. I can't wait to see what these men are going to do. I spent some time sniffing and checking out some new sheets these men have brought. Are they going to sleep on the job? Not with me around they are not!

I got bored in there and wandered back to the kitchen, my mom was unpacking lots of shopping she didn't hear me coming and I made her jump. Oops she dropped a large bag of stuff, I think they are on drugs, I hear about this white powder on the TV. It went all over the floor, wow what a mess. Of course I got the blame and they shouted at me to get out, so I ran to the garden, again. As I ran I left these super little white footprints, I thought it looked neat, so I ran around the hall a little more. I tried licking them, yucky. Who would cook with food that tastes like that?

I stayed in the garden for a while, let them wash the floor clean, then put on my 'I'm so sorry face' it worked.

Never forget fellow puppies, you can do anything you want to but always follow it up with the special forgive me face. See you tomorrow..............

Sick Puppy AGAIN!

Hellooooo..

I've done it again, spent yesterday afternoon ill.

This time I found another nice crunchy stash to eat, I think they called them acorns.

But they were so tasty and nutty, good enough for squirrels, good enough for puppies.

And of course once they family says 'leave them alone' what would you do, I eat more!

Then there I was feeling yucky and they make me go to puppy training school.

Ha Ha though, I wasn't in trouble, the family was.

I tried hard to listen while they were told off for not being assertive (wonder what that means?)

Next week is my last lesson, yippee, but my teacher is not very pleased with me and she said by next week I must not jump up at her again. Fat chance!!

So we went through lots of things we had already done, boring, sit, down all that again.

Waste of money this has been, oh well, extra puppy walk, evenings drive out, treats from the teacher, I've got through it somehow!

But when we got home boy was I in for it, all of a sudden they started.

It's was No this No that. Just because they got into trouble why take it out on me?

I think they were in a bad mood. I tried to go to sleep and ignore them.

Had a great puppy walk this morning though, meet several people and of course every time we meet anyone I get extra treats. Hurrah for school. But it doesn't work anymore, I eat the treats and then do the same as I've always done.

Why am I still always in trouble, I'm only 7 months old, I haven't grown up yet.

The Big Black Dog well she's always so good, she's boring, but then she's so old, she's 6 a grand old lady!!

Well I'm off to the garden, I must take a look and see if our tree drops anything exciting like acorns, I'm hungry...........bye..........

Tummy Ache Pup

Goodbye my friends, I've loved you all.....

I'm sick............ I'm dying.................

I've been so ill and what sympathy do I get, nothing.

The family just look at me as I lie on my death bed and say "serves you right, we told you"

We had this wonderful puppy walk this morning and I discovered the delightful land of the blackberry bushes.

Oh you should have seen them, so many, so big, so juicy.

How could I leave them alone? My family kept pulling me away but everywhere I ran there they were.

First they prickle you then you just have to turn round and bite them off the bush. You know what its like, you eat one, then another one, then another one and so on.....

Well I felt fine, until we got home.

Then I had my after walk puppy biscuits and oops was I bad!

Why do some of the most tasty things in life not like me?

But I have tummy ache.

I don't feel like playing,

I don't feel like running,

I don't feel like eating,

I don't feel like digging,

I don't feel like me!

Through the door I can see the neighbour's cat - oh let him walk across my garden...

I think I died and went to hell, because this isn't heaven....

NO NO NO NO what am I saying, if that cat's out there in my garden.................gotta go........................................................

Ouch these 'straw polls' hurt!

Hi everyone,

Sorry to say I've had a terrible weekend.

Yesterday the family made me very happy, early in the morning they took me out on a very long puppy walk, super.

Never saw the catch though!

They had the nerve to leave both of us at home for the rest of the day.

To make matters worse I got into the dining room and chewed the legs of the dining chairs, oh dear.

Plus hanging in the hall with the coats I found my leash. Oh why would I chew that? Hope it doesn't stop them taking me out.

Today on my puppy walk I found the farmer has 'cut his grass', have you ever walked on dry straw, oh it does prickle!

The rain has come back again and so have the mud puddles, yippee, I love mud.

But then we get back home and they bath me, how rude!

So I have had a horrible time because they keep saying stay on your blanket until your dry!

I'm still a puppy you know, I can't sit still I have to move.

Must be awful to be old, all the Big Black Dog does is sleep, how boring a life is that?

Well I am going to see if I can escape outside, I need to take a sniff around, hopefully I will have some good news to report to you all tomorrow.

lol (lots of licks) super puppy

Happy Puppy

Hi everybody,
As I feel so happy today I thought I would let you see a picture of me with the Big Black Dog. You can see how I've taught her to know her place, couple of steps behind me!
I have had such a great day and for once they are praising me, Wow.
This morning we went out for our usual puppy walk and oh my golly gosh they took a bag of dog treats.
There was this lady coming with some little dog, you know one of those really small ones that you can utterly dominate. I was a little muddy too by then, not that it bothered me one bit. I started to run, as I took my first leap, I heard the rustle of a bag and the word, treats. Not being one to ever turn down food I went back for a bite. Very nice. The lady was walking past but somehow just by looking at the other dog, treats kept coming my way. Oh this will do quite nicely, thank you.
Only problem was I then realised what I had done, they called me a very good girl. But hang on a minute I've just lost a game.
So what do I do the next time we meet a doggie play pal, do I play and get told off or do I forfeit the game for food and a pat on the head.
Oh the problems of life, I'm too little to work that out!
I overheard more good news when we got home, the builders are leaving next week, but I also heard new men are coming. Oh goody new men to train, wonder what work they will do?
I have a problem in my garden, how do you undig a hole?
I've dug this big hole you see, no one seems to have noticed or they have just given up on me! But when I run round the garden I now keep falling in this hole and it hurts, so how do I undig?
Well I think its time to go on a cat hunt, if he really has to insist on crossing my garden this regularly then I am certain he does so purely to have a game and if he wants a game, who am I to say no.
Bye for now, remember puppies rule.........

Puppy still Naughty!

Hello,

Are you still visiting me because I am not getting any better it would seem.

Yesterday I was in such trouble with the builders car, I really didn't mean to do it.

Well after dinner I thought I had been forgiven when the family picked up my puppy leash and I cried with joy, they still loved me and we were going out. My favorite time.

I ran to the car and got in the right one!

Then to my horror discovered we were going to puppy training school, no I thought not that punishment again.

Problem was for the first time my teacher was very displeased with me.

I can't do anything right.

Sometimes we have a lesson indoors and sometimes out in the field. Last night we did recall again, but out on a make believe walk. I know the difference.

They used this very very long leash, in order to pretend I was free, I wasn't.

I got into trouble because I kept jumping up at my teacher, my family knows I do that on a walk with people. I also scratched her stomach, I do that too. I'm bad.

Then along the edge of the field came a strange dog, just happened to be out on a walk, nothing to do with school. Of course I had to run over to say hello, wouldn't you?

But I honestly did not hear them call me once. They must have been calling my name very quietly. In time I felt that long leash shorten up and I had to return to my teacher, oops she was not pleased with me at all.

So my family and I went home, I heard them all talking about me. What will my punishment be I wondered as I went to my puppy bed, very unhappy.

****

Yeah I got up this morning everyone seems very happy, after breakfast we went out on our usual puppy walk and guess what happened. I get extra treats.....Yep... after all that playing up and trouble last night, it seems they want to control me by using more treats.

Hey I recommended puppy training school and my wonderful teacher to any dog around.

So I'm not stupid, the more I play up, the more treats I'm going to get. Is there a catch here?

They kept calling me over and in their hand were treats, I eat one, I run off again. I like this!

Life just can't get any better....

'Trouble' Puppy

Hi everybody, please say you will be my friend today, I don't have any here!

No one is talking to me.

I'm in deep deep trouble!

Well it all started after our lovely puppy walk this morning. There had been some rain overnight and the puddles were full up again with nice smelly gooey mud. The best kind.

I didn't really get told off for that, they seem to just accept that's me and there's nothing they can do about it. Finally. Although they do shout constantly 'don't shake near me' Why? !!

However we arrived home and I jumped out of the car, I knew it was going to be hose pipe bath time, I don't really mind that too much now either, oh my golly gosh I must be growing up, Help!

But what happened next was like a scene out of a horror movie.

One of the builders went to his car as I was going into the house. He called to his 'mate' up the ladder "I'm going to Moor Park, did you want to come?"

I can't help it I thought he said to me "Would you like more Park ?" Of course I would want to go, so I turned round and ran, he was holding a door open, I jumped in his car.

Oops.

I was filthy, the mud went all over his cloth seats.

There was pandemonium, he was screaming at me, my family was screaming. I am the worst puppy in the whole wide world.

I caused a row with the builders, what a morning. so I've stayed out in the garden. I don't think they will ever let me back in the house.

One good thing though, most of the mud has now dropped off so I won't be needing that bath.

Just might need a new house!

Help,

If I'm still here tomorrow I'll let you know what happened.

I'm going to lie low for a while, bye.......

Summer time Puppy

Hi everybody,
At last the sun came out, I love the summertime. Lazy Puppy naps in the garden.
Last week I went to puppy training school again, I know I always say it but what a waste of time and energy. I could be doing so many important things, like digging holes, or chasing the cat.
The keyword was 'Leave'......when I heard that I thought yeah, we can go home now. But No the word has two meanings. Stupid school!
It was all so silly, my teacher put puppy play toys in front of me and then told me not to play with them, how dumb can you get?
At the end of the lesson she even had the nerve to use treats...put them on the floor just beyond my nose! But I don't get it? Because what she really meant to say was 'wait for a minute', she said leave, I waited, then I was allowed to eat it. Work that out?
When I got home I saw the builders truck and I thought 'Leave', wish they would. Living with all this noise is driving me mad, I can hardly sleep in the daytime!
As you saw from my pictures yesterday I am now an expert swimmer, I can jump straight into the river. Super fun, biggest water puddle I have ever seen.
Over the last week I have got into such a lot of trouble for now destroying all my play toys, I always did chew everything but suddenly I've realised I can totally tear them apart. And now this new habit has become so addictive I've started destroying everything I can get my teeth into, far more than I ever did as a puppy. It's fun!
Well for today I must run I hear the call of the cookie jar, someone's in the kitchen, gotta go, bye for now...........

Swimming Puppy

Hello Everybody..Super Puppy here..

I have to say I am so sorry for being absent again, well the family made me said that, I've had a great time swimming and having fun.

But our house is a building site and we escaped again, every time I come home the house is growing bigger, I'll get lost in the new part, is that what they want?

Today this is just a short post to say I am back and popped these pictures on to show you how much I have missed you all!

I will post tomorrow, I have puppy training school news and holiday news for you.

Mom says tell my friends she will email around tomorrow, oh she is so lazy, why can't she do her own work, I have things to do. I must get out and let that cat know I'm back and check on my garden.

Lots to do, places to sniff

See you all tomorrow

Happy Puppy

Helloooooooo everybody,

Have I had a wonderful happy super puppy day and its not even my birthday! (that's about 21 weeks away)

It all started because we have builders here, they come in and go out all day, it's great no-one seems to really watch me or the things I can get my paws on.

Well for breakfast I managed to steal a piece of bacon, oh boy do I love bacon... was a little warm at first but I laid it out on the grass and it soon cooled. Satisfied I went back into the house and I couldn't believe my luck, no-one saw me run back to the garden with a piece of toast!

Then I found the front door was open I looked outside how great can this day get? The mailman was coming..I barked all grown up and defending my property, I really believe by the look on his face that he was scared of me, wow!

Only problem was before I could do the decent doggy act of chewing a mailman's trousers, my family caught me there and I was embarrassed to be treated like a puppy again. He obviously felt safe then and patted my head!

We set off on our puppy walk, the sun had bought out the bunny rabbits. I tried and tried to catch one but I will have to learn a little bit more about how to reach those rabbit holes before the bunnies do. I am quite big now so I want to know how does something so small as a bunny rabbit run so very fast!!!!!

I also saw a fox - I don't chase them & 3 deer, they are too big.

When we got home, I jumped out of the car and there it was, a builders lunch bag. I grabbed it and ran to the garden but I couldn't get the stupid plastic covering off and it tasted so yucky! But I got caught and told off, my mom had to make the builder a sandwich and he didn't give me even a small taste.

After lunch I stuck lucky again, everyone is so busy they never saw me find a lovely soft cushion, I went out in the sunshine and curled up for a very relaxing sleep.

Later I chewed a paperback book, they are not so good as the TV guide I like those, but it gave me a new game.

Okay so I got told off a few times but I've had quite a good day, I love living my life, full of adventures of what can I do next and my family is certainly slipping up a bit lately.

I feel tired now think I will retire for a little puppy nap before dinner time and then see what I can finish the day with......Bye for now....

Calling all Puppies - Never give up your ball!

Hi Everybody Super Puppy here,
As this picture shows thought I would make the Big Black Dog play and what did she do, she stole my ball or rather she thought she could. No way do I ever let a ball go.
I got it back!
That's why I'm called Super Puppy.
I am a little muddy, this morning we went to a new place for my puppy walk and boy was it muddy, it was fantastic but I got into trouble because I always like to lie down in it. Makes the car nice and 'iffy' as they say.
I couldn't post this weekend I'm sorry, we were all sent away. We didn't have any water at home, no baths, Yippee. But then no drinking water either.
I blame the builders I think they dug through the pipes deliberately just to stop work. They keep upsetting my routine. I come home, I go away, I come back, sent off again. I hope we are back now.
We had a hot weekend and I went swimming in a lake (fancy name for large water hole), I can't understand it, when I swim in water holes they shout at me but at this lake they threw toys in for us to play with, they don't know what they want!
More trouble for me today, this morning I ate my first pair of sunglasses, strange things that people put on their faces but quite chewy I must say, looking forward to attacking another pair. I find it strange now I am older that some crimes are worth committing, I think I have got used to the 'odd' telling off. I just let the adults have a good moan, I sit at give them the 'Oh I won't do it again face'. But some things are just too much fun to never do again and I can put up with the telling off.
Here's a tip for any puppies reading this, if you get told off, when they are finished just start something like trying to catch your tail. If you can look stupid they laugh, see problem solved.
Well I think today I have to run, I want to go and see if the builders need my help. Sometimes they leave out long strips of wood which are perfect for chewing and we always have such a great game they just love to chase me round the garden. One or two of them could do with a little more exercise (if you know what I mean!) Ha ha go on chase me then............

Puppy/Dog Training Classes

Hey everybody do you want a laugh?

I went to puppy school last night and guess what the lesson was. Teaching me my name!!!!!

I know my name thank you.

Idiots.

Spent the whole hour calling my name, I think it was called 'recall'

The teacher however praised me, Oh I've got her worked out, she has treats, she calls my name I trot over and she feeds me a treat and my family pays for this?

Thank you.

The problem is though at puppy training school there is nothing to do except survive the lesson.

When we are on a walk however, everything is so different, there are so many things a puppy just has to do, scents to sniff, people to greet, dogs to play with or growl at, puddles to splash in, delightful rabbit doodles to eat, grass and mud to claw at, sticks to chew, balls to chase, roll in foxes 'doodah!', get wet, get muddy, get 'iffy', air to breathe, distance to run and run and run and "miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep". (Okay apologies - line pinched from Robert Frost, my Mom's favorite poet)

On top of all I do they then expect me to hear them call my name to go home, I don't think so!

Just can't wait for next weeks lesson.....

I'm in trouble again, the car had to go a place called a garage, they had to replace 2 seat belts they called them. Someone and they assume it was me chewed through the belts, I blame that Big Black Dog, Would it be me?

Couldn't find any builders lunchboxes today, just as well I know it was their egg that upset me.

The one good thing about the builders is that the stupid cat from next door doesn't seem to want to cross our garden these days. Wonderful, although I admit I miss our lovely chase me games. Please come back Kitty Kat.

I think its time I took a puppy snooze, forgive me I'm dog tired!

Puppy Dog Ready to Play

It's me Super Puppy,
Sorry I didn't post yesterday I was on my death bed!
I was really really bad, I think it was the egg sandwich I found by the builders bag. But my family thinks I am swimming in to many filthy dirty muddy (wonderful!) large puddles. They are always shouting don't drink the water, I have my suspicion it was the egg sandwich, why else was it left there. Obviously the builders wife was trying to 'murder' her husband for the insurance money!!
Yes okay I watch too much TV,
I like MTV best, not too keen on 'rap' music except little bow wow, or whatever he's called & Snoop Dog! One of my family likes the group 'Black Lab' now that's taking things too far!
However, I was a little quiet yesterday but today back to normal...........
We went on our puppy walk, they wouldn't let us go anywhere near a puddle, not much fun and stopped me eating rabbit doodles.
The rain has stopped here, now the sun's out but that makes me feel like a hot dog (oh I could just eat a hotdog!) and lazy. So now I really need a puddle to cool down in.
That cat from next door scratched my nose this morning, all I did was look through a tiny hole in the fence, nasty piece of work, one day, one day....I'll get him.
After lunch I had to go out on a second puppy training walk, now normally I wouldn't complain but this was school homework! We just went down the lane and back, all the time it was heel, heel, heel, no running round the fields for me. That's not what I call a walk.
So tonight is a school night, yucky, complete waste of time. I can't wait to discover what today's lesson is...Yawn...My family must be learning a lesson...how to throw money away! The only one good thing about school is the extra little walk just before class and I've learnt not to do a puddle too early. Once I've 'performed', walk is over. I string it out, I'm not stupid! I can learn things...See!!
Well I had better go and have a little puppy nap, restore my energy for the concentration needed tonight...Not...

Puppy Fun

Hi everybody,

Super puppy here, have I had fun this morning!

My new friend Jim the builder seems to like me, he laughs when he sees me coming. We got back from our puppy walk and I managed to sneak a peep into our new extra house bit! There was this blue plastic sheet for a door, other houses have wooden doors but I suppose my family can't afford a proper one, makes it easier for me to open though, I do hope they change all the doors in the house to this way. That would be great!

Anyway, so I pop inside, messy people. Found some cups on the floor, tried cold coffee, yucky!

Don't know who was sleeping there last night but they didn't clear up, white sheets everywhere, not that white either. Oh my family is changing, never known so much dust, perhaps that dreadful hoover has broken. Oh I hope so I hate the noise that thing makes!

There was this bucket I stuck my 'big' puppy nose inside, it was full of some white powder stuff, made me sneeze, then the white stuff went everywhere, I was covered. But Jim, my new friend, heard me and came in, he just stood there and laughed at me. I thought time for a quick exit and ran for the garden. I left a trail of white powder all the way down the hall.

I like having people in the house because it's stopping my family watching me all the time. Today so far I've managed to find half a chocolate bar, the TV guide, I love tearing that one up, took the remote outside, but they did chase me for that, I got hold of the mail this morning but dropped it before I could escape, one of those awful days when the mail is wrapped in a plastic bag, it was slippery.

And they keep shouting at me in the garden because I'm trying to construct a golf course, I've dug about 8 holes so I have to complete a few more yet!

After all this excitement I think it's time I had a little puppy nap,

See you tomorrow.......

"Does my puppy head look big in this shot?"

HELLOooooooo!!!!!!

Again I say I'm back, I'm sorry but my family keeps taking me away (then I being the clever puppy I am, escapes and runs home!)

But I think I heard I am back for a while now.

So much has happened since I last wrote to you all.

Had to go to that stupid puppy training school again last week, we did 'Heel', waste of time again! What's the point of going for a walk, like we did for our lesson, where I had to walk alongside my owner on the leash. Crazy because when we go for a walk, I am free off the leash and if I'm free there's no way I'm walking next to any people.

Oh...People.. Why did God put people on this earth (well apart from filling my bowl with lovely puppy food to eat!)

I've had such a problem just lately with people, when I was a little puppy everyone loved me. Now I'm a little older and little bigger and they just don't understand when I want to be friendly.

I know we have had a lot of rain and there is a little bit of mud around, but that washes off clothes doesn't it? I can't help jumping up to greet people when I'm out on a walk and now nobody loves me.

We have these men at our house at the moment, I'm not allowed to get near them, Why? It's not fair because they get to spend the day playing with sand and water, something about cement, what's that? There's also a lot of wood around and I just love to chew planks of wood, but our house appears to be growing just like me. I know people can get 'fat' can houses too. Can't wait to explore this new part.

Well if you will forgive me today I will now go and find something to eat, we only came home this morning and I'm starving I hope they remembered to put puppy food in the cupboards.

I will talk to you all tomorrow......

Puppy - "Down"

First I will tell you of last night's puppy school - No they didn't teach me to jump through hoops of fire!

The lesson was 'Down' - what use is that, I already do that - Family: look at the photo - I'm down!!

Every puppy knows 'down' you can't stand up all your life, it would get quite tiring. Have to sleep like a horse! Stupid teacher.

And I got a lecture, they got onto jumping up a certain family member's boyfriend! Well why else does he call at our house if it isn't to play puppy games with me? Isn't it right I should be pleased to see visitors?

Perhaps soon they will realise these lessons are all a waste of money, think of the treats you could buy instead.

Can't wait for next week, probably be 'Stand' !!!!!........Yawn.........or hopefully.....'Sleep'.....Zzzzz

Thank goodness though I hardly ever hear that clicker now, they gave up. Yeah..I won. I do know that's it still too high up in the kitchen for me to get at, but I will soon as I can. This puppy never forgets.

Had a great tennis ball game this afternoon, Mom was busy at the computer and threw tennis balls out of the window while she worked. Garden looked great at the end, then the humans had to spoil my fun and went round to pick them all up, there were 44 balls out there!

Wish I could get into the front driveway, there's a huge pile of sand. Looks just like a big beach for me to play on. Someone said 'builders coming', I don't know what that means, can you play with a builder? I will let you know as soon as I know the answer.

Oh, I will have to go now that cat from next door is sitting in my tree, he's not getting down you know. Oh, perhaps cat's don't understand the word 'down' he could be stuck for years! Just thought we puppies must be far more superior to cat's, we are educated at school. You never hear of cat school!

Must fly............. see you tomorrow...........

Puppy prisoner

Help - Help

Puppy behind bars - Convicted for a crime I haven't yet committed!

Okay - so they caught me going upstairs and I'm not allowed up there on my own, but why do they need the evidence?

Well Super Puppy is back everybody, isn't it nice to be home.

I notice though, we came back in time for me to go to puppy school tonight! Waste of time, but don't tell anyone because I get an extra walk on the way. They think I will 'perform' before the class starts but last week, oops puppy puddle in the middle of the lesson. Ha Ha.

I want to learn super special tricks: like jumping through hoops of fire or walking a tightrope over the Grand Canyon or riding bareback or ......sounds like I want to join the circus, do I have to run away for that?

But at school what do we do, boring things like last week SIT - STAY gimme me a break! Any puppy learns how to do that from the first day in your new home, especially when the dog biscuits come out. I can't wait for tonight's lesson......Yawn......

I've learnt so many things that puppy school will never teach you, like when hot food falls off the baking tray straight from the oven. You just have to keep picking it up, ouch its hot drop it, try to chew again, ouch its hot drop it, lick it over, ouch its hot drop it, I always find after a few attempts you can eat it...just. I always say, if its on the floor you're not getting it back!

School doesn't teach patience, its like the stair gate. You know every time they come downstairs they close the gate but you also know that humans are stupid, they're human, they make mistakes, this puppy is smart! The one time they leave the gate open I'm up there - except last time they took that ridiculous photo!

Guess what else I did that was extra puppy smart, on a walk last week I broke that stupid puppy extending lead - and how much longer do I have to keep saying puppy. Yesterday I was 6 months old!

I wanted half a cake and half a candle, what did I get: half of nothing!

Well I'd better go and do my homework.............Yeah Right..........I'll see if that cat's around to chase......

I'll see you tomorrow but before I go I would like to say hi to my best friend Deuce. He has a great blog (the second best one I know) (Guess which one is first?)

Please check him out at http://www.lesliehawes.com/blackdog/ okay so I know its says blackdog but believe me he is nothing like the big black dog that lives here, hmmm, wonder if he would swap places. Be nice to have someone here I could actually play with. Sorry BBD I love you really.

THE PUPPY RETURNS

Hi everybody Super Puppy here - Sorry no photo's today

Just to say I am back, desperate to announce my wonderful return to my puppy blog diary!

I am just as quiet, shy, bashful, timid, unassuming, as I ever was...........................NO WAY......NOT ME

I will be here tomorrow with more 'tails' for you of my recent days adventures and my school lessons (they don't work!)

Please come back tomorrow, always remember Puppies Rule...................

Vacation Pup

Hello everyone.

The 'Super Puppy' as she likes to be known had the nerve to ask me to post an entry here today.

Due to an overwhelming desire to keep dipping her paws in the sand, eating ice cream and having a wonderful time. I am pleased to say that the troublesome pup will be away for just a little while longer!

So if you really want to hear all her 'tails' she will be back in a few days.

Me I'm off for a nice peaceful rest.

Home Alone Puppy

Hi everyone,
Sorry no post yesterday they left me 'home alone puppy' and went off to see the tennis at Wimbledon.
The cheek they could have played tennis balls in the garden with me! So I got my own back, I ate the seat pads off the chairs in the kitchen, well only 2 of them!
At least they went out and I didn't have to suffer that awful puppy clicker. BUT I know where they keep it. Just got to work out how to get it. It's in the fruit bowl, which is right in the middle of the kitchen table. Now this table is quite big, I know because I often try to steal food off of it, but I can't work out yet how to get my tongue all the way to the middle.
I'll wait, one day soon they will lay it down somewhere and I will grab it.
So yesterday, they took both of us out for our walk and then left us, I started on the chairs as soon as they had gone down the drive.
About 5 minutes later we had a visitor, a puppy sitter came to look after us, how boring! Well she arrived too late!
Then for the rest of her stay she just watched me like a hawk. If I went outside she followed, I couldn't get rid of her.
For once I was pleased to see my family back.
Today has been a very hard day, the rain is 'paw-ing' down again. Our walk was a puppy swimming lesson, I used to like splashing about in puddles but just lately we have to wade through the paths.
Then we get home and the garden is awash with water, I think we live in a castle because we have a moat around us now.
So I've stayed indoors this afternoon and driven everyone mad. I need to play and run, I have energy to get rid of. I tear up and down the hall, they shout at me. My favorite game is to roll a ball under the TV, they have to bend down and fetch it, so I do it again. See they will play with me!
Well I'm giving up on the weather I'm going to join the Big Black Dog and have a snooze......
always remember puppies rule........

Puppy Clicker

Clicker - Click - Click - Click - Click - Click

I'm going out of my tiny mind, all I can hear day and night is click, click, click!!

Please help save this puppy from going insane.

Hi everybody, Yes They took me to puppy training school, no I mean clicker school.

It was dreadful they believe in the power of the clicker, what am I going to do?

We arrived and our class was being held in a field, I thought fantastic won't be so bad after all. How wrong could I be.

My new teacher said that all puppies can be controlled and taught by using this clicker. Click and treat. Well I liked the treat part, but the thought of this noise around me all the time is terrible.

Mind you I heard one part, they said: ignore the bad, praise the good.

Works for me.

So I came home and started eating the garden bench, Crash, Bang. I jumped a mile or two, nearly high enough to jump the fence and get that cat next door. It was my family throwing an empty coke can full of pennies into the garden. Seems the way to distract me from wrong-doing is to make a sudden noise and I will stop. Give me a heart attack you mean!

I can't take this, but I've already worked out that to catch me at something they will have to watch me every minute of every day.

See how long that lasts!

Then they want to call me indoors and they use this stupid clicker, I know my name.

All evening it was Click This and Click That. I'm leaving home!

I know one thing I have been a very well behaved puppy today because they are wearing me out and I've slept a lot. Except I can hear clicks in my sleep.

Went on our puppy walk and they took the clicker, met my friends and how embarrassing they click, click me. I was only trying to play.

I'm keeping my eyes peeled for this clicker, as soon as I can find it, I'm going to bury it as deep as I can.

Think I feel like another snooze, I'll see you tomorrow...............

PreSchool Puppy

Yes I am a preschool puppy, watch out I might look different tomorrow!

Just a short post because I am having an extra walk this afternoon, I think they want to try and tire me out so I behave at school later. No chance.

I'm going to school as me and no teacher is going to change me, those other puppies in the class won't know what's about to hit them. Actually I can't wait to go now. See what all this fuss is about.

I've had a good morning, got up found a buffet had been laid out for me. Well I stole a sausage and a piece of bacon! I couldn't believe they forgot I was around, my nose doesn't miss a thing. With all the shouting going on I think it was possible someone didn't have time to make any more and had to go to work with no breakfast, oops.

Then after our morning puppy walk I found a new 'toy'. I've eaten the shed! Well not quite all of it yet, but I found this piece of wood, I pulled and tore at it and yes it started to pull away. There was this hole, I saw a bicycle. Then problem I got caught, the family were very cross, out came hammer and nails. Thing is once I know how to make a hole somewhere I can usually go back later and have another go.

So I had better go and start getting ready for puppy school, I won't have to wear a uniform will I? There had better not be any homework either. Hey do you think they have my brown-bag ready?

I'll tell you all about my lesson tomorrow

'Grand' Puppy!

Hey don't you think I look grand, I can't be a puppy much longer.

The Big Black Dog says I'm only sitting upright and still because I've been nailed there, how rude!

Today is a quiet day for me, I'm bored. The family are not happy with me, apart from yesterday's bath disaster I kept them up last night. Not a nice subject but I'm still teething and I eat everything, well in the middle of the night I woke my family several times. I kept trying to throw up, eventually I got rid of this huge piece of green plastic. Came from a green tortoise!

So this morning they are not happy with me and the lack of sleep.

We went on a puppy walk and would you believe they took me across the fields, no puddles, they kept me clean. What's the fun in that!

Then we sat in the car while they did some shopping, when I was a little puppy I used to jump the seats and have been known to dive into the shopping bags. Guess what they bought a dog guard and now I can't cross over into the back seat. I tell you my life is getting very boring.

Our next door neighbour doesn't like it when I peep though the holes in the fence and bark at that stupid cat of hers, do you know what she did, covered the holes! I ask you, people everywhere are ganging up on me.

They actually gave me a treat earlier on and said how good I have been today, well I'll tell you I'm bored. Bored. Bored. Big Puppy Bored. Going out of my tiny mind!

This week they seem to think they can be one step ahead of me, I look for my usual playthings, like the TV remote and phones etc. But I can't find them.

And guess what today's Tuesday, tomorrow I start school. I'm going to cry in a minute, my life is falling apart. I feel miserable.

Hang on a minute, the sun is coming out, there's a bird on our bird table it's my job I have to chase them away....Wait that stupid cat is coming across the grass I will have to go, birds in my garden is my job, not his...gotta go..................

Puppy at rest

I need a new ring this one has a hole in it, or rather it doesn't!

Hi everybody, Good job this photo was taken before we went out because everything went wrong after our puppy walk this morning.

I had a wonderful walk, in our little town today it is pouring with rain, there is so much mud it is fantastic. The family said it is raining too much to take pictures of the Big Black Dog and I enjoying the pools. Shame you can't see just how deep they are.

I met up with one of my puppy friends, now when I play with others I do tend to roll on my back (see my picture from yesterday!) so somehow I managed to get mud and dirt and rain and tree bark and bunny doodles and maybe a little bit of foxy doodles as well, (I don't think I know what deer doodles look like), all into my coat! I smelt really good.

Well I was just a little bit dirtier than usual and when we arrived home, I wasn't even allowed in!

They set up the 'bath' area in the garden again, I hate baths.

It took two of them to try and get me clean, one had to hold me, the other handled the water hose. Ha ha, one of them got quite wet. Serves them right.
But then things took a turn for the worse, they stood at the door with my big bath towel. Now I don't like being rubbed down, it's worse than the bathing. As they went to wrap me up I took a dive between their legs and somehow I managed to break free. I ran into the house, they chased, although they were screaming at me I think really they were having fun.
I was still soaking wet and leaving little puppy drippy puddles everywhere. I think it's amazing that a puppy can out run stupid humans.
I ran through the hall, round the kitchen, back down the hall again and into the family room they tried to catch me, then suddenly to avoid them I jumped up onto the couch. The more they said 'down' the more I stayed put, I even rolled onto my back, that usually makes them laugh. Not today.
I was having such fun I didn't even see the hand grab my collar and pull me down. Oh no I think I wet the couch, the rug, everything.
I don't think they are ever going to love me again....It seemed a bit late but I had to stand there and let them dry me, I lowered my head in my apologetic way.
I am still a puppy!
If I still have a home and family I'll see you tomorrow, I'd better take a puppy nap and keep quiet for a while.

The ball's in the puppies court

If that Big Black Dog thinks she is going to get the ball then I will swallow it!
Hi, super puppy here. I have to say that because today no-one else will.
This morning after our puppy walk (and they said I was good out today!) we went off to Grandma's House and I don't think I will ever be invited there again.
Now as I have said before I like Grandma, she spoils me so I didn't set out to upset her at all. She still calls me her little puppy, I'm not little any more!
Anyway everybody was in the garden and I was taking a look around the house, now Grandma is old and I mean really old, you know the wrinkle kind, she must be at least 50 odd!!
But in her house she does not have paint on the walls in her rooms, she has what they call wallpaper (so I heard them say later).
Well I'm sniffing along that funny piece of wood border that goes all around the bottom of the floor and there was this little piece of paper sticking out from the wall. Of course my puppy nose was interested, I licked it, the piece became a little softer. Oops, so I used my teeth, the next thing I knew was this paper started to come away from the wall and I had hold of a strip that was as long as a man. I looked at the wall, well there was a big hole but I thought no, no-one will notice that.
How wrong could I be?
Grandma was not amused, I'm getting fed up with all this finger pointing they keep doing at me lately.
However, when they had a cup of tea, Grandma still gave me a oreo, my favorite! I put my head in her lap to say sorry and I think she forgave me.
In the car home though the family went mad, kept shouting at me and something about they have to go back next week, I thought hurrah yes. Then they said I can't go they have to redecorate or what ever that means.
When we got home I thought it best to stay in my safe haven in the garden, I could just see that cat next door through a tiny gap in the fence, so I barked constantly at him to annoy him until the lady next door shouted at me to keep quiet. Oh well annoy everybody its my way.
Time for a puppy nap I think............

Half Puppy/Half Fish!

Me again, all nice and muddy.
We have had so much rain lately even I am beginning to think I'm a fish!
On our puppy walk this morning I just couldn't resist these pools, wonderful for cooling the blood. I always wonder though why after my lovely swim do we have to continue our walk through all that long wet grass?
Only problem with being a muddy puppy is the clean up afterwards, I hate those towels! They always rub far too hard I'm sure they think they can get even with me for something.
And I know what it is, I broke a CD (What's a CD?) player this morning. I found this black wire hanging down and I pulled it. I had to run like mad to avoid being killed when this big box thing almost fell on my head. It crashed to the floor with such a bang, all the family came running and I ended up running outside for safety.
There was quite a bit of shouting and finger waving at me.
I just can't help myself if I see anything loose, hanging around, lying around, hidden away.
I found where they keep the TV guide, it's behind the pillows on the couch. What an easy hiding place to find. Soon as they go out of the room, I jump up move the pillows and there it is, I usually take it to the garden for reading and digesting.
Somethings they win at, the cookie jar has been moved to a higher shelf, haven't worked that one out yet.
I'm eating my way through the garden bench seat at the moment, they keep shouting and pointing at that too, but they do not know how to stop me on that one, so my puppy teething chewing post is available 24/7.
I ate a box of mints last night, yucky, I didn't like them and afterwards they didn't like me either. In a way it's so easy being a puppy, you can eat almost anything and if its not right for us, up it comes again. Simple really, means I can try anything. Not going to eat those potato skins again though, learnt that lesson! Oh yes & peppers, no way!!
But anything new, bring it on.
Well think it's time I woke the Big Black Dog for a game of I'm going to bite your ear again.
I'll see you tomorrow folks.......

Bigger Puppy!

Hi,

Just look at me, don't you think I'm growing into a really huge puppy now?

Why do people still call me a puppy?

Do you think I look older than 5 months?

But why is it the older I get the more they tell me off?

And why do I keep asking questions?

Is it because I don't know the answers?

My family just told me to stop being stupid and said why am I wasting every body's time?

This morning on our puppy walk we were joined again by that awful dog training man, I really don't like him! I have this problem you see. When all of us are together everything is fine, if they call me, 'most of' the time I will come back. But I am a very friendly puppy and when I meet people I have this urge to greet them. Can I help it if I never hear them call me? (Another question!)

I will also run ahead to find other dog walkers and my trade mark is to jump all over them with my muddy puppy paws. Oops, people are not too pleased with that. So I had to suffer this stupid man again, he keeps me on the lead and expects me to walk by his side all the time. Impossible. So I had an awful walk but they did say we could go to the park tonight, I hope so I need to run.

When we got home I found we had an intruder in the garden, that cat from next door had climbed into my tree. Wish I could climb the tree! So I had to sit there until he moved. Well I don't know how he did it, I was puppy tired after my walk and I only closed my eyes for 2 seconds, when I looked again he was gone! Next time....

Anyway I'm staying in the garden today I've been in every body's bad books, I got hold of that teddy bear again and ate his ribbon. I chewed up this week's TV guide. And to top it off I buried some clean washing in the garden, I don't think I'm very popular at the moment.

But I'll survive, stay low, come out fighting tomorrow....see you then...

A Puppies Summer

Hi everyone, isn't the summer wonderful, but all our fields are just too high for this puppy! Help!

Had a lovely puppy walk this morning but spoilt things when we got home, the family have discovered that I am now able to see out of our garden.

I climb up onto a garden bench seat, cross over to an old dumpster left in the corner, from there I can put my paws on the top of our fence and look over. Only problem is the view has nothing to look at, just waste land. But for this puppy I can dream of being free. Except this morning they caught me, I got told off, now they have moved things around, I'll just have to work it out another way.

At lunch time when the family finish eating, the big black dog and I always get a little something, today it was a crust from their ham sandwich. I am supposed to know my place. BBD (Big Black Dog) goes first then little puppy me, but this morning the tiny morsel of ham they offered just smelt too good to wait so I was very naughty. I snatched BBD's piece and mine in one go. Oh Boy did I get told off for that. Then they go off to the kitchen to find an extra piece of lovely ham just for BBD, honestly they spoil that dog!

I got my own back later in the afternoon, I think it was the little rabbit doodles that I shouldn't have touched when we were out, because after lunch I bought them all up all over BBD's blanket! Oops. In trouble again, then they go and find her a new one, typical, mine is old and puppy smelly!

They keep shouting at me at the moment they keep saying they have to watch me every minute of every day and they do, it's no fun.

Yesterday when they went upstairs I took a teddy bear off the window ledge in the hall and took him out to the garden, just for fresh air you understand. He got a little wet from some licking, but even he's now getting better treatment than I am.

Well I think it's time to investigate the garden, but first I want to say Hi to my friend Deuce. I have been reading your pages, love the photos. But it would appear I can't leave any comments for you, have to ask my family about loggin in? If you love your water hoses then you really would love my mud pools!

I'll see you all tomorrow, never forget puppies rule.

A Puppies Hello!

Me again, I'm sure any day now this farmer will cut his grass, it's making this puppy sneeze a lot.
Short post today but I wanted to tell you what happened this morning because I got told off big time again.
I've eaten the car!
We went for our puppy walk, first of all I must tell you how big I am now, I can jump into the car by myself. Makes me feel big and surprises that Big Black Dog, she always sits there so grand, well now I can jump in just like her.
Anyway we were driving along the road, I was having fun in the back, suddenly I caught the eye of the driver in that terrible invention of a backwards mirror, the one designed so they can see what I am up to. I'm sitting there with a piece of the car in my mouth. Brakes go on, I thought they had stopped for something important but it was just to stop me. They found out I have been chewing my way through the panels at the back, well they are covered in carpet with foam underneath. They were not amused.
After our walk, I was put under supervision for the drive home. They keep muttering about who would buy the car now? I don't want anybody to buy the car, we need it to go puppy walkies.
And when we got home they said I didn't deserve a bone biscuit, they did give me one, but they had that look on the faces.
I hate being in trouble......
If I survive I'll see you tomorrow......

Muddy Puppy Again!

Oops I did it again!

They keep telling me I'm still a little puppy, so can I help it if I like to puddle in the mud? The only problem is they wash me off when I get home, Yuk!

But today I was in a lot of trouble, real trouble, not just puppy trouble either, they said it was dangerous what I did and I could have been killed. Problem is I haven't got a clue what they mean?

If you are of a nervous type perhaps you had better not read this post, it's nasty!

Well it all started when we went out for my morning puppy walk, we have two favorite places, one in the forest where I can jump straight out of the car and run like mad (I like that place best).

Our other walk I have to go on the puppy lead while we cross a road to a field. Now I don't like the lead and I admit I play up, so they now put me on this awful extending lead while I'm still in the car, then they try to open the back and grab my collar. But this morning I was naughty I saw the back of the car open slightly and I slipped to freedom through this tiny gap. I thought I was such a clever puppy, but they grabbed my lead, only it was the extending part and the thin rope caught their hand and caused burning blisters on their fingers. I think it hurt them. I never meant to hurt them. Then they started screaming at me for being so naughty, they said if there had been a car in the car park I could have been killed. But the car park is always empty, not a popular place because you have to cross a road.

We still went on the walk, then I was being nagged because they say that I do not walk, I just lunge and lunge on this puppy lead. Well take it off then! I hear them say that school will make me walk on a lead, huh!

We came home and my injured family had to bandage two fingers, I felt bad,, I went outside to the garden, problem was to console myself I started chewing our garden bench. Oh dear they saw it.

What can you do when you are puppy teething, you have to chew anything, anyplace, all the time.

I'm sorry for this depressing post, I needed to warn other people to be careful with those awful extending leads. We puppies do not like them, we run ahead and you constantly yank us in the throat, so it would be better if everybody threw them away and just let us run free.

Please do not hurt your fingers.

I think they have forgiven me, they are coming with a tennis ball in their hands, they want to play, I must go, must play, must catch, must run..........

Spot the Puppy!

Hi everybody, talk about where's Waldo?
I'm beginning to think my family is just trying to lose me. If you can spot the black tail I'm just in front!!
But this puppy is getting fed up, why doesn't anybody cut the grass around here? I can't grow quick enough.
After my time away from home I've returned to a great house, they seem to have totally forgotten just how much I can reach, nothing stops me now. Today they put their breakfast on the coffee table, easy pickings. Left the remote boxes out and the TV guide, ha ha. They got a little upset because I take everything outside and it got a little dirty, oops!!
However I was away and missed the first day of puppy training school. Hurrah I thought, I've escaped that torture but no they tell me we are going to start at another place on June 27, soon sort that teacher out!
Had a great puppy walk today, well apart from that field, I almost caught a rabbit, it was so close I could lick it! One day, I have a dream, one day!
I burnt my puppy nose today, I tried to sniff inside the oven when the family was baking, oh it smelt so good, they opened the door and of course I had to look in there, but my nose touched the shelf, my that was hot. I'll try again tomorrow see if I can lick without touching anything oven/hot, if there's a way I'll find it.
Since my return I notice I have a lot of jobs to do, the garden has grown needs my digging skills and that Cat from next door has been in all my puppy places, I can smell it. Wish I could put him in that oven!
Well I'm glad to be back home but I'm feeling tired right now, if you don't mind I think I'll take a quick little puppy nap....See you soon....Zzzzzzzzzzz

Puppies Return

I'M BACK EVERYBODY!!

Seriously though I am sorry that I was away for so long, I missed you all.

This is just a quick note to apologise (the family made me say that!) they said I had to tell you we had a family emergency but everything is okay now.

All I remember is being bungled into the car like a kidnap victim, being dumped off at Grandma's house, well actually I quite like Grandma & Grandpa, he takes me for walks. Then today I think they paid the ransom because they bought me home, Yippee. So if you will excuse me I have a lot of work to do in the house, checking everything is as I left it.

I want to say Hi to Deuce for your nice note, I will be in touch.

Hopefully I will post tomorrow, if we are not back to normal by then you will hear me howling, but could be next day. See you then. Never forget...Puppies Rule..........

Puppy Training

What a day, today on our puppy walk I was joined by a puppy trainer, huh what did he know?

I think as you can see I look quite well behaved here!

He gave me lead work, didn't like that. A puppies walk is for running and having fun, not going to school. When I was allowed off he kept calling me back, stupid! If my nose has picked up something really good, why should I have to run back to his side? And do you know what else, he wants me to stop jumping up at people!

I think he's trying too hard to change me.

I am a puppy and puppies rule. We were born to create havoc!

But I won in the end, we got home and he had a cup of coffee. I stole a biscuit from the plate before he choose one. Ha Ha.

Well I will have to finish off for today because we are going out to visit grandma. She always spoils me, lets me have cream biscuits.

Puppy, Don't eat the Daisies!

Well it has been quite a day, some naughty news, some dangerous news.

Before our morning puppy walk we had a visitor at home and for once I was allowed to say hello. Had lots of warnings about jumping up, but I can't help it, I want to be bigger. The lady didn't mind, she said so and I believed her!!

However, the family had coffee in the kitchen and I in my way just ran about puppy style, the lady said I was a very cute puppy. Alright so I like an audience, I rolled on my back, took her my toys, one of my favorite toys is an empty plastic milk bottle, nice and noisy. I also chew up cereal packets.

Now under the table next to her feet I found her basket, sniffed around, interesting but then the family caught me and I was warned to stay out. I was wandering down the hallway when I heard the lady scream, I rushed back. Oops looks like she put her hand into her basket and found my chewed up piece of cardboard, I wondered where I had left that. They all look at me accusingly, as if I could do that on purpose, I'm only a puppy, not Einstein!

So later we left for our walk, it was such a nice warm sunny day. But I wasn't the only creature that wanted to feel the warmth of the sun on our backs.

I discovered today that the world is not a very nice place to be, the big black dog was looking at something. The family went to see what she had found. A snake. Now I had never even heard about snakes before, let alone seen one and what kind does the big black dog have to find: an ADDER. This didn't mean anything to me until I sit in the car and listen to my family. So now I do not like snakes. Do we have to go for a walk tomorrow? I'm going to be scared! Help.

We got home but every stick I saw in the garden looked like a snake.

I decided to have my puppy biscuits in the kitchen, do snakes come indoors? I'm supposed to protect my house and family, forget that!

Oh well, I had a nice puppy snooze, went outside and tipped over the water bowl, my feet needed cooling down.

Time I think to start searching for a new place to dig my new secret 'hidey' hole. I found a good place below the apple tree, no-one will look there. It got a little tough I found some roots to the tree but the hole is getting bigger, I will just have to work on it.

Oh got to go that cat from next door is looking over at me from the roof of our shed, see him off........

Good Puppy Dog

Well, today I have been told that I am behaving very well, like the perfect little puppy dog, they said!
I think it's because after yesterday they will not let me out of their sight.
The only mischief I have managed to pull off today was quickly grabbing a piece of toast at breakfast time, but the laugh was on me because it had marmalade on it. Yuk, How do humans eat the stuff?
We went for a lovely puppy walk this morning, I was lucky enough to see some rabbits, they were lucky enough because I didn't chase them. The big black dog tells me it is a puppies duty to chase rabbits, but I don't see the point in that yet! I do so love to chase that cat from next door, I see the point in that, get out of my garden.
We went straight home but they are not leaving me alone for a second, what can I do?
I took a walk around my garden, I saw that someone has dug over and repaired my secret digging hole, that means they found the slipper I buried for chewing later and a meaty bone I discovered in the garden after a barbecue, and what's worse is they never gave those things back to me!
So getting bored I started a running game, tearing through the garden up into the house and back again, nope not allowed, they stopped me. Said I had muddy puppy feet, I haven't, all the mud dropped off in the hallway.
Couldn't stop myself I decided to enjoy a little gnaw on the doormat, got caught. My fault they probably heard my growling as I tried to make the stupid mat surrender.
There's only one reason for being good, they gave me a chew stick, wow. But that only lasts for a couple of minutes, how can any puppy be good for the WHOLE day just to get a chew stick?
So I took a nap and that has turned out to be a good decision for once, I just saw people putting outdoor shoes on, Yippee we are all going out again, oh this is a good day. I will have to go now, I'm off out again, bye...

Troublesome Puppy

Hi everybody super trouble puppy here, I've done it again.

This morning after breakfast I did my usual check of all eating areas, nope, no crumbs, not a morsel of anything. However on the kitchen table I saw something bright, no-one seems to realise I'm growing into a much bigger puppy now. So I half jumped and caught it, I rushed off into the garden, I didn't know what my find was, it was small, looked a bit like the TV control box. Only problem was it was too small for me to play with and I soon lost interest so buried it into one of my holes.

Later on 'the big man' of the house, as I call him, was looking for something. I watched as all my family started turning everything upside down. Then they looked at me. What did I know, I'm only a puppy? In their usual gobbledygook they asked me if I had seen something or other, I can never understand what they saying. I thought they wanted to play so rushed off to the toy box and returned with a tennis ball, Yes? NO, they shouted at me!

They even went outside and started looking around the garden, I started to run about I was sure they wanted to play puppy games, but no they went back indoors.

Then one of them picked up the strange box that makes a noise like a ringing bell, I always think they look stupid when they talk to themselves. Nobody wanted to take any notice of me this morning, I tried everything I could to get their attention. Did my usual I can lie on my back with my legs in the air, that always makes them laugh, nope. Chased my tail, nope. Look cute and dumb, nope. Sulk away, nope and no-one saw me go, what is wrong with those guys?

One of them opened the back door and from the garden came this strange noise, like that ringing bell box thing, only muffled.

Oh No, they are heading for my secret 'puppies only' burial hole.....they are digging in it....No they found my stash! It seems the box I found this morning was important, oops. They are all looking at me, why do they keep waving their fingers my way.

For the some reason they get satisfaction by repeating the word, School, school, school... starts next week , help!

I just get bored, maybe if we walked before breakfast as well as after, perhaps I wouldn't get into so much trouble. Or maybe if I had more food. Or maybe if they played more games. Or maybe if they understood I'm just a little puppy.

See you tomorrow everybody, remember puppies rule.
