NEW blog - January update

The little dog that spends most of his time sleeping has had a few adventures as of late. Invloving dads house, and snow.

I took doggy over to dads house last week after I'd dropped Amy off at work. Brought him along to get him out and visit his surrogate father. Some key things to keep in mind in this story are the facts that he was outside between the car and the house, and he didn't see fit to pee. When we arrived at dads, he didn't see fit to pee, I even left him outside for a bit, and he didn't go.

So we come into dads place, and he just stays right by the door, in the entryway. Dad and I were downstairs, and he wouldn't come down. Even when we called, he just remained by the door. Wasn't barking or crying really. So I just figured he didn't want to walk down the highly polished and potentially slippery hardwood steps. Picked him up, brought him down. He said "Hi" to dad, rather impatiently, and then when he was set down, he silently peed, disguising his actions by walking around the room as he did. I noticed after the deed was done, since there were some conspicuous wet trails on the carpet.

To boot, Wendy was in the next room, and the first thing dad said was "oh quick! Wendy'll find out!" He quickly ran out, grabbed some paper towel, came back, and dried up the spot as best he could. The carpet was still visibly moistened, so he moved a small rug from its home, and placed it over the pee-spot to hide the mess. Below you will find a picture of the hidden mess, and some dogshots with dad as he masks his animosity towards the small creature

Next up are some snowshots of a fridged yorkshire terrier, clearly not suited to Canadian climes, as he attempts to relieve himself one cold January morning.

And finally, a picture of the dog in the front of the house! He looks a bit special, if you know what I mean.

Holiday Blog Entry

To those loyal fiew who follow the DogBlog religiously, this should be a well recieved update. The holidays, while terribly unkind to me (Strep and a sinus infection = 3 days without food) were very good for the schnauzer.

I have a few never before seen pictures from Bobbie's pre-holiday cleaning. So I will start with them!

The following pictures are from the holiday. The dog very much enjoyed opening presents, and preceeded at one point to just waltz under the tree and tear open some randoms, which were most definitely not his!

Threw in some photos of the other people present over the holiday. The last picture is the delicious meal Amy and I (Most, if not all of the credit to Amy... I suck at cooking) had for xmas dinner.

And finally! The big surprise! (I didn't say there would be a surprise, but, well, surprise!):

If you couldn't tell, this is Wii Fit Plus. It allows you to create your pets in the game. An almost pointless endevour, since all wii fit can do for a pet is track its weight. (It can't really make the dog do push ups, pilates, or yoga...) As you can see, the obese animal weighed in at 3.4kg. For all you non-metric commies (That'd be me too, who uses metric for weight?) that works out to be 7.49571691 pounds. (thanks google)

Untill Next Time!
