random doggy days

Hi everybody,
I'm sorry I haven't updated, but thinkgs have been really busy around here. Mom and I have still been going to PT a couple of times a week and I like that. Mom is still looking for a job, and she hopes that a job she interviewed for will work out.
The really interesting thing happened last week though. I meant to write about it before now, but I didn't have the time and Mom wouldn't let me near the computer either. Anyway, Mom's friend Dena went on vacation to Mexico and so she couldn't take her guide dog, Kaylor, with her. Mom and Auntie Julia said that they would take care of him while Dena and her family were gon so last week Kaylor came over.
We had a great time playing, and we got to play tug a lot with this great toy Kaylor had. The toy squeaked and I could even chew on it and pull on it. Mom says it's an awesome toy because it is almost indestructable. i loved playing with it, especially with Kaylor.
We went over to Mom's parents' house and Marlin, Kaylor and I all played together. I liked it most of the time, but sometimes, Kaylor and Marlin would pick on me and I would yelp so they would stop biting my ears. Mom made them stop playing so rough with me, and so they just wrestled by themselves. It was nice having another dog around for a week, and i hope we can do it again another time.
It is so cold outside, and Mom wants it to be spring. I want it to be spring too, so I can lie outside in the sun on the front steps. Mom promised me a raw meaty bone when it gets warmer outside, and I can hardly wait. Last night, Mom gave me a chicken neck her dad had saved from the roast chicken they'd eaten and I loved it. Mom gave it to me and I ate it in about 9 seconds, mmmmm I love chicken necks!
Last weekend, Mom got very sick with a sore throat. On Friday, she went to the doctor, and they said she had something called Strep Throat. I don't know what that means, but she was sick all weekend and just wanted to rest a lot. I was nice and snuggled with her. I love snuggling with Mom, and I know she loves to snuggle with me when she's sick. I think she's feeling better today though, cause she got up and did her laundry this morning.
Well, I think that's all I've got to say for now. I'm glad Mom finally let me update this blog, and so now my tens of fans can read it.
bye for now, but I'll be back soon,
woof woof!

more on me

Hi all,
I know it's now been a really really long time since I was here last, but Mom and I were not only busy iwhth Christmas and all of that, but we had been having some issues last week and Mom wanted to work them out before she let me write on the computer.
She had been very sick with a cold last week and so Auntie Julia had begun to take me out all of the time and feed me too, and so I started thinking of her as my pack leader. Auntie Julia didn't mean for that to happen and neither did Mom, but it started to and so Mom had to figure it out first because it was making her sad, me wanting to be with Auntie Julia all of the time. After we figured it out, and after Mom started taking me out and feeding me all of the time, I realized again that she was my pack leader and it was business as usual once again.
Thanks Giving was good, and I got to see lots of my other family, like Mom's aunts and uncles and her parents and the like. Just after that holiday, we got our first snowstorm. I had fun playing in the snow with Marlin, and it kept snowing and snowing. About a week later, Mom threw a Christmas party. I had meant to blog about that, because I had done something very bad.
My friends Dena and Jason came over and Dena brought my buddy Kaylor, her golden retriever guide dog. Well, cause there were lots of people at the party, Mom and Dena decided that it would be a good idea to put both me and Kaylor in Mom's room. Well, they could hear us playing up there, but what they didn't realize was that I was insecure about my territory, and so to solve this insecurity, I peed all around Mom's room. I made sure to only pee on the wooden floor, and not the rug, but I just wanted to let Kaylor know that this was my room.
Mom didn't get mad at me though, cause she found out about it after I'd done it already, but she cleaned it up and said next time she'd put me in my crate so I wouldn't be tempted to do that again.
Christmas was good. I got to see all of my family again and after Christmas I got to see my buddy Kelton one last time. Mom and I are done with computer training and so I won't see Kelton and Debbie as much anymore, but I'm glad Mom learned a lot. I'm going to try to update more, and since things are great between me and Mom again I think she'll let me write more too. I'm sorry Bosco, I didn't get back to you until now, I haven't forgotten about you and I still read your blog. I hope Mom and I can have more working adventures to tell you about soon, cause she and I are both bored and we want to get out and work, but it supposed to get cold and snowy again tonight and tomorrow and so that kind of prevents us from going on a good walk. Anyway, maybe Mom will take me to the mall soon. The Megga-mall is great for walking in because there are lots of distractions and people and it's huge, so I get lots of exercise. Well, I hope you all enjoyed my update, and I promise to update more.
