Oops I Ate It

Siku Marie tagged me for the Oops I Ate It Award, and I'm supposed to blog about a time when I helped myself to some food that I shouldn't have. The only food I ever "steal" is when Mom is eating and misses her mouth! Mom sits in her recliner to eat and I climb up on the back of the chair and lay in wait. If I see something fall.....it's mine......all mine. I am so quick I don't know if Mom even notices!!

Now here are the rules to this award:

"When accepting this award, you must blog about the food you have stolen when your humans were not watching. If you have never stolen any food, you must have been a really good pup! You can accept this yummy tray of cookies as your reward! Next add the logo of this award to your blog (optional), then nominate at least 5 other furry blogs and let them know by leaving a message on their blogs."

So I nominate:

1. Benson & Lily

2. Cloud The Wonder Dog

3. Isabel

4. Norwood

5. Bruschi

Afghan Hound Club Specialty

As some of you know, my Mom and Dad used to show Afghan Hounds. Well, even though they don't do that anymore they are still involved with the local Afghan Hound Club. They put on two shows last weekend. Mom was the official show photographer, so here for your enjoyment are a few of her photos. Hope you like them!!

Heat Wave

We are in the middle of a heat wave. You know Seattle's reputation of being cold and rainy. Well, today was 110 degrees at our house outside and 96 degrees inside. That is the hottest recorded temperature here EVER!!! All together we are supposed to have at least a full week of 90 degrees or more. Very few people here have AC and you couldn't find one in this city if you tried.

We did get to run through the sprinkler. It was so cool and refreshing. Rocky is sleeping on the flagstone hearth since the stones are cooler than the carpet. I sleep where ever the fan is blowing. Mom is not doing very good. The air quality is bad and she has had breathing problems since she had a pulmonary embolism last year. We have no pictures because all they would be is us laying around like a wet dish rag.

Adios Gidget

Gidget, the famous Taco Bell dog has crossed the rainbow bridge at the age of 15. She did more to popularize the Chihuahua breed and small dogs than any before her. We will miss you Gidget!!

Another modeling job

As some of you know, I am a world famous model. So, today I had a job for my Mom's company To Be Ewe. They had made a prototype of a new dog toy. Here is a picture of me waiting for the photo shoot to start.

Photo shoots are 90% waiting and 10% work. I brought my business manager Rocky to make sure everything went smoothly.

The product is a dog toy shaped like a coffee cup.

We got the money shot and then they tried to take the toy away from me. I really liked this toy so I put my foot down and said I wanted to keep it.

After that, and a bit of wheeling and dealing by my manager, I got to take the prototype home and now it's all mine!!

Back in Seattle

After taking the Disney jet back from Scooby's wedding, my Mom and Dad took Rocky and I for a drive to Camano Island. It's about a 40 mile drive from our Kirkland villa.

Our beaches are pretty rocky and covered with logs that wash down from the mountains. We were at a State Park and not allowed to run on the beach like some of you can do.

We sat down at a picnic table and looked out at the sound. Yup, this is not an ocean. It is Puget Sound. Mom said lots of people (and dogs) don't know that Seattle isn't on the ocean. Here I am looking out at the view.

Mom.....why did you take that picture of me with my tongue out?Rocky enjoyed the view too!!Dad took Rocky down by the water and walked down the beach. I stayed with Mom since she doesn't walk very well.

I can't see Dad & Rocky. I'm getting worried!!

Oh....here they come. Whew!!Don't worry Diego...I kept an eye on Dad just like you kept an eye on Mom. Mom and Dad said we are good dogs!!
