Dog Beach

Today we went to dog beach. Aunt Courtney had been talking about dog beach non-stop so I figured it was only a matter of time before we got to go. When we first arrived at the beach, it looked just like any other beach. But to my surprise, behind the gate was doggy paradise!

This beach is literally a beach for us dogs. Nobody has to be on a leash and we are free to roam, meet new friends and jump in the water. I have put my paws in the lake before but today, I did something I never expected. I jumped in and spent the majority of our time splashing around in water up to my neck.

I was definitely afraid at first but I looked around to find all the other dogs going in the water and decided to join in on the fun. I am so happy that I did because it was a warm day and the lake felt really good! All the big dogs ran in pretty far but considering how small I am, I went pretty far too.

Our time at the dog beach went by really fast but I cannot wait to go back! Hopefully next time, Daddy and Uncle Joe will also come with us. I think Daddy would be really proud of me.

Today turned out to be a great day! Geordi and I are both exhausted and have been taking naps all day long. To add to our already great day, Daddy grilled meat just for us to eat! I wish everyday was this good..

A Warm Week

Happy weekend! The weather is warming up again and this has been a stellar week!

Daddy has been trying to teach us to stand up on some box so that we can look out the window. I like looking out the window but that box seems unsafe. When Mommy and Daddy are not home, I sniff it and check it out. I can't have them knowing that I am interested especially since I refused to use it when Daddy wanted me to. Mommy and Daddy should consider putting a couch there.. i'd have no problem with that.

Uncle Keith came to visit this week! We got to spend time with him at the park before he had to go to the airport.

That particular day at the park was fun because it was a huge party! Chad and Dodger were there as well as all the kids in the neighborhood.

My best buddy Jude played with us the entire time. He walked me around the park, played with my toys and as usual, we had a total blast!

Geordi on the other hand decided he was done playing and begged Daddy for a belly rub. What a party pooper!

I love fun days at the park! Mommy and Daddy said we have to move soon. This makes me really sad because I love the park and all of our friends. Hopefully we won't have to move very far so that we can still enjoy our park during the warm weather days!

Dandelions!

Isn't this picture of me funny?

I know it's been awhile but not to worry, I am fine! I have been busy playing, relaxing, sleeping and growing up to be a big boy. I am already 6 months old. Can you believe that? Since we last spoke via this blog, I have discovered my love for dandelions. Bones said he loved dandelions last summer too and called me a copy cat. We have learned to love chomping on dandelions together.

Today was a beautiful day. We went out to the smaller park because the big kids have been playing soccer ALL day long. Pretty selfish to take up the whole park if you ask me. The best part of the little park is the long grass. I think the grass cutter forgets to come this way. Hopefully he keeps forgetting because there is nothing better than laying and rolling in the long long grass full of dandelions!

Yep, that's my mommy!

Belly Rubs

I have been recuperating from my birthday party. It's exhausting turning 1 but having fun at my own birthday party with all of my closest friends is pretty physically demanding. Aside from my party nothing exciting has happened. Geordi and I play a lot outside and nothing beats running laps and rolling in the grass at the park.

With the warmer weather we are spending the majority of our time on the balcony. Mommy bought us a cot for the balcony so Geordi and I spend a lot of time people watching. Daddy let me sit on his lap today while he was doing homework. He gives the best belly rubs! Believe me when I say that there is nothing more relaxing than sitting back and getting belly rubs. Try it sometime!

I have also been working really hard at sitting like a real person. How am I doing?

Happy Birthday Big Brother

Today we celebrated my big brother's birthday! We had a party and invited both our dog friends and our human friends. The best part of the party? Mommy let us eat things we usually don't get to eat! Running around all day was pretty exciting too but I felt pretty exhausted by the end of the party. Good thing Bones only turns one once... I can't handle too much partying.

Happy birthday big brother!

Pug Life is the Good Life

Pug life is good. We have been having so much fun lately! For example, Mommy and Daddy let us play with ice on the kitchen floor to help us cool down from the warm weather yesterday! Who else gets to do that?


If we aren't scooting ice on the kitchen floor, we are sitting and watching hockey with Daddy.


I don't know about all the other dogs out there but I love bath time! It is so relaxing and there is no better feeling than being clean! Geordi and I love bath time so much that we fight to determine who gets to go first!


Today we spent an hour at the park with Dodger. The neighborhood kids were still at school which meant we had the entire park to ourselves. Mommy bought me a new football at Petsmart today so I spent the majority of my time at the park playing with that. It is officially my new favorite toy! I love days like these..

We Live By the Lake?

I went to Lake Michigan! Apparently, we live three blocks from the lake? I can't believe Mommy and Daddy never told me this. There were tons of rocks everywhere and lots and lots of water! We lost a ball in the lake but Bones and I managed to have fun anyway.

It was super windy by the lake and it was really hard to look cute for Mommy's photos.

I can't wait to go back! If only the thunderstorms would stop..
