Here's some pictures!!

Hey guys! After a lot of time loading them on the computer yesterday, my owner and I got the pictures from Succot on the computer and (if blogger will cooperate) we can post them.

Today we went to the Vet's Open House thing. They had a petting zoo two! Only a tiny cow, a few goats and a little pig, nothing too fancy. I was ok, until I realized that those things were real and alive! Then I kinda freaked out and wouldn't stop barking! They were strange! I had to alert everyone that there were odd animals at the vet!
When we first got there I wasn't sure what to thing. Usually when we go to the vet something bad happens to me. But today was different. We got to go for a tour around their new building and look at how they do surgeries (on stuffed animals) and stuff like that. I got to enter the "Cutest Pet Contest", the nurses thought I was really cute, we submitted a picture with me and with a paci in my mouth!

My owner won 3 prizes for different things! I really want her stuffed dog that she got!

We also got to see one of the nurses dog and the two vets' dogs.

It was really fun today, I got really excited and I kinda had an accident. Well it wasn't really an accident, we were outside, but on the sidewalk! My owner put me in a "sit" and I was just so excited that I sat and peed on myself! I didn't have to get a bath though, so it wasn't too bad! :) At least it didn't happen when we were inside the building!

Well here's some pictures of Succot and of the petting zoo today!

Me and Rusty, I think he was my best buddy there, I really liked hanging with him!


Me and a girl who was walking me
While camping you should get lots of rest . . .
. . . and food and water!

Me and another poodle, named Moshe, he really seemed to like me, he was scared a lot but when he would see and Sarah walk up his tail would start wagging! He was ok but Josie's my favorite poodle, and Rusty's my Best Friend!

Larkin and Ms. Kimberley, Larkin didn't seem to like me very much
Larkin again

While they had family game day, my owner played the Bubble Gum in the Whip Cream game while someone else held me


Now from the Vet today -





All that commotion made me tired! The prizes my owner won, a toy dog and two ink pens

The picture we entered in the "Cutest Pet Contest"

I'm "Mr. Cool" with my shades!!








Me with the backpacks!









My with my own backback! Full of treats and leashes!







As you can see from the pictures, we're getting ready for Succot!!! I helped my owner with some packing, then we went all around the house (and outside too) for a pre-Succot training session! I did well, my owner was going to take me off lead, but she didn't feel like watching me that closely. But she didn't hold my leash the whole time. There was lots of "downs" and "stays" while she went off somehere else. The only place I wouldn't go to "sit" and "stay" was near the hose pipe!!!

Going to Grandma's!!

Packing the back-pack




I like "Land Before Time" toys!


I'm stealing Duckey!!!




Hey guys!



On Saturday night my owner and her brothers went to their Granparents house, the great thing is, they brought me!! I really wanted to go on the car ride and was almost surprised when they allowed my to go! But I whined the whole way, I mean car rides are ok, but long ones aren't for me. So anyway, not llong after we got there mom and dad left! I kept expecting them to come back, but they didn't all night!! We played and my owners watched movies and stuff. After a while it was time for bed, I really didn't want to go, but my owner made me. I kept both of us awake half the night, I just couldn't go to sleep in the dark and boring Play Room. Finally it was time to wake up! My owner woke up then I woke up and then after waking Pawpaw up, we went outside, they have a fence but I stayed on the leashe, Sadie, the nieghbor's dog, doesn't like me very much, and I can slip out of the fence at the entrence. I wasn't allowed to wake everyone up, but they soon were all awake anyway! And then Mawmaw had good smelling breakfast sizzling on the stove! But, wouldn't you guess, they would even let me have one biscuit!!! Around lunch time mom and dad came back for us! I was soooo happy to see them! After all, Mawmaw and Pawpaw's house is grat, but they don't have aproper window to look out! We did commands and stuff while we were there, my owner made me do "Under" the whole time she was eating her Chicken Noodle Soup!! I'm just learning that command so Sarah likes to do it with me! She says I'm doing good with it, so I posted a video to show you!

Me doing "Under"






My appologies for all the noise in the back ground, Sarah's brother and Mawmaw were talking about poodles and dogs and stuff. I hope you can tell what's going on!


Tricks envolved:
"Under"



"Down"



"Stay"



"Heel" (My owner said it twice then said "Better", I don't always get "Heel" the way she wants it so I have to do it again!"



"Get the Leash"





I Do "Sit" but that's envolved in "Heel".
