IT'S FINALLY HERE - I GOT MY BIG SURPRISE!

IT'S FINALLY HERE - I GOT MY BIG SURPRISE!

Well, first, Mommy took me and my sister Cheyenne to the Petsmart Grooming for a full day of beautify spa - I got my nails done and I got FURMINATED!

Then, Mommy picked us up, and took us to our new home! Yes, Mommy bought us a new home with a BIG BACK YARD just for me to play in! And, I really, really love it! I have plenty of room, my own dog igloo to stay in when I am tired outside, and a great big cottonwood tree that has squirrels in it. They are my new friends now. I chase them all over the yard.

I also got another big surprise - a GREAT BIG MEATY BONE! My big bubba Tony gave it to me when we got to the new house. I also got a new doggie mattress to sleep on Mommy's bed. My sister cat, Cheyenne, loves the new home too. By the way, we get along much better now that we have more room. We both sleep with Mommy.

I LOVE MY NEW HOME! I LOVE MY NEW BONE! I LOVE MY MOMMY!

3 MORE DAYS!!!

January 23, 2012

Mommy said I will get a big surprise in 3 days!
Oh boy, oh boy - I can't wait!
I can't count either - but I still can't wait!

I know something is going on because Mommy and my big bubba Tony have been putting a lot of stuff in boxes and there are lots of boxes all over the house - it kinda makes me nervous, but Mommy gives me lots of hugs and kisses and doggie treats, so I am not too nervous (I think). My big sister cat (Cheyenne) LOVES the boxes - she jumps all over them and hides in them sometimes.

Hmmmm - I wonder what's my big surprise in 3 days - does it have to do with the boxes? I hope it's a bone or a toy or something - but I don't care - I know I will love it. Mommy always gives me good surprises.

On another note - Mommy got me a brand new crate/bed and I really love it - I was growing out of my other one - this one has LOTS of room - and it has a nice pillow for me to sleep on too - Mommy said, even though I can stay out of my crate more, I still need my own "girly" space sometimes, just like she has.

Here's a few pics of the boxes - WOW - lots of boxes! I wonder if my big surprise is in one of those boxes?

ANYA'S BEING A GOOD GIRL NOW!

January 10, 2012

I am learning to be such a good girl! Mommy is training me to be out of my crate and sometimes off-leash - and I did a great job last night!

Mommy keeps me in the kitchen at night with a long lead (not in the crate anymore) so I can play with my toys and get food and water - that way, if I have an accident, it's easier to clean up - however, I got loose last night (not sure how), and I did not bother Mommy or get into anything at all! I stayed in the kitchen and living room area, did not potty on anything, and when she got ready for work this morning, I was by the front door ready to give her a big doggie kiss!

She is soooooooo proud of me and gave me lots of extra hugs!

P.S.
Mommy said she has a big surprise for me soon - and I can't wait to find out what it is!

THERE'S A DAISY IN MY SHADOW

One day when we were walking, My Mommy said to me.
There's a Daisy in your shadow - Look - can you see?

I looked and saw my shadow and said - What do you mean?
All I see is you, Mommy, walking here with me.

She said, I had another dog who passed years ago,
She was my Daisy - I really loved her so.

There were times before you came, when I knew she was near
And when she picked you out for me - all became so clear.

Daisy is an angel now, sent from up above
She is in your shadow - sending us her love.

I looked again and YES - I could clearly see
There's a Daisy in my shadow - watching my Mommy and me.

SHE'LL BE COMIN' AROUND THE MOUNTAIN WHEN SHE COMES!

SHE'LL BE COMIN' AROUND THE MOUNTAIN WHEN SHE COMES!

YEP - had a great day hiking on Rabbit Mountain with Mommy today after she got home from church - we went further this time than before - and sat at the top and looked down at everything below - we went around to the top of the mountain so we could see Big Thompson Canyon and Poudre Canyon off in the distance - we could also see down at Berthoud, Loveland, and Longmont (where we live).

I am pooped now - WOOF!

ANYA THE PILLOW PET!

ANYA THE "PILLOW PET"

Mommy said I have been very good at learning to be house-broken - she now lets me sleep with her on her big king-size bed - she said there's plenty of room for both of us. I have been sleeping outside my crate for 3 nights now and so far, no accidents. As long as I don't have an accident, I can stay out of my crate at night. I have been very still and quiet and let Mommy get her beauty sleep. Sometimes I will put my paw on her or scoot up next to her, but mostly, I stay at the foot of the bed - I like to have my own girly space too!

When she gets up in the morning to get ready for work, I just lay on the bed and watch her - then I give her lots of doggie kisses before she leaves.

Mommy said I am now her "PILLOW PET" - WOOF!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY!

11/19/2011

Today was Mommy's birthday - she had a great time with my big bubba Tony and some of her best gal friends - they went to lunch and she brought me back a doggie bag - YUM! Bubba Tony gave Mommy a brand new guitar - and I help her sing when she plays - Mommy also got a new winter coat - she doesn't have fur like me to keep her warm, although I do cuddle with her a lot - I also gave her extra kisses for her special day!
