What's a PawPawty?

Some of you might be confused by my last post -- the Sekurity Report for the PawPawty. Let me explain...

Mom let me set up my very own Twitter account, and I've met hundreds of doggies and kitties and teddy bears and hedge hogs and guinea pigs and squirrels and pigeons and all sorts of other animals from all over the world. Once a month, all of my anipals (animal friends) have a big party. They call it a "paw pawty" because, well, most of us have paws...obviously...

Anyway, a PawPawty is an online party were everyone chats through Twitter and plays along with the party theme. There's an optional cover charge for the party, and the money goes to whichever animal charity we're supporting that month. This month we raised over $1,300!

The PawPawty Sekurity Team stands by in case anyone needs help during the party. And this month, I joined the Sekurity Team! (Don't laugh.) I kept track of all of the sekurity-related events at the party. I'm the official Dokumentation Officer for the Sekurity Team. Not bad for a skittish little doggie, huh?

Oopsie...

Last night Mom was on the floor with me, givin' me some good petting and loving. She started scratching my ears (ain't nothing better!) and her face was right down by my little face. She was talking to me and we were practically nose to nose. You know what I did? I burped. And I had just eated some of my canned doggie food, too, so it was a good puppy burp.

I thought it was SO funny. Mom was not amused.

Oops.

Dry Doggie Food

Tonight I decided to take a walk on the wild side and I ate some of my dry doggie food. That stuff just sits there on my food mat all of the time. I always refuse to touch it. See...Mom gives me some doggie food from a can, and I like that better, so I never eat the dry stuff. I just make Mom give me more canned food when I'm hungry. Got her well trained!

But tonight I got a little adventurous, and a bit too hungry, and I eated the dry stuff. You should have seen the look on Mom's face! She was SO surprised. She even got me more of the dry stuff out. She was so happy that I ate the first bit that I just decided to eat the new pieces of dry food, too.

Tomorrow I'll just be eatin' my canned stuff again, though. Don't want to make a habit of the icky, dry food or Mom won't keep getting the canned food for me!

The Big, Big Park

Mom wasn't very happy with me today 'cause I kept her up in the night. I thought she would be scared of those thunder booms like I was. I guess she wasn't. Oh, well.

Anyways, she couldn't have been too upset with me 'cause tonight she had a special treat for me. We went to the big, big park! We never go there 'cause we have to drive there in our car. My pond is right by our house, so that's lots closer. But tonight I got to go to the big park. Yeah!

The big park has grass that's taller than my Mom. Nice sidewalks to walk on, too, through all the trees and tall grass. Mom said there are sculptures for peoples to look at, but those don't really matter to me. I had my eyes on the grass and the trees. I loved all of the cool smells. I sniffed everything, too. My kept saying, "Do you really have to sniff every tree?!" and I would just keep on sniffing! I had so much fun.

We went for a long walk in the big park and it was getting dark out by the time we got back to our car. I was pretty tired when we got home, but I sure had fun at the big park!

Yeah for My Pond!

Mom took me for a walk around the pond tonight! We haven't done that since I had my icky seizure over there a couple of weeks ago. Mom was scared 'cause she didn't think I should walk very far. I missed the pond, though. I had SO much stuff to sniff tonight! I made sure I checked out every tree -- even the ones that I don't normally sniff!

My cool puddle was back, too, 'cause it rained today. I was nice to Mom, though, and I walked around it like a good girl. She was so happy. I did wipe my feets in lots of mud, though. That didn't make Mom so happy. A doggie can only do so much, though...

Tick Attack!!!

I hate ticks. They're these nasty little buggies and they pinch! I had two of them get on me two or three summers ago. Icky, icky, icky! But just take a look at the HUGE tick that Mom found on my back tonight...


Isn't that silly?! Mom found a new doggie toy for me that looks like a tick! It says "tick" on its back and "pinch me" on its tummy. I thought that was funny. So did Mom...obviously... So after Mom got done taking pictures of my new tick toy on my back, I attacked it. Take THAT, you icky tick!


Then I decided to pose nice for Mom again. I'm such a good puppy dog. (And Mom gives me cookies when I pose!)
