Sleepy Levels are indicated by the Floppiness of the Ear

It’s very chilly out again and I feel I have no other recourse but to sleep.

Winter Update! Where Have I Been?

22 01 2010
Vegas sleeping

My mom picks on me when I sleep. She said my toofers are cute. What a weirdo!

I know I haven’t posted in a while. The holidays were pretty hectic and I was sick a lot. I also realized that I haven’t posted because I haven’t been doing anything! There are no play groups and it’s too cold to go outside. I stay in most of the time and just sleep. However, it’s time to spice things up so I am going to get my sleepy butt in gear and start posting more. They may just be pictures of me sleeping but that is still cute right? Stay tuned for more posty goodness!

Boston Terrier Christmas Cards

24 12 2009

Holiday cards featuring Vegas

The Cutest Boston Terrier Holiday Cards

The holidays are here and I thought I would feature the 12 free Christmas Cardsmy mom got from Shutterfly. I wouldn’t really say they are Christmas cards since my mom choose the “Peace on Earth” sentiment and prefers to wish everyone happy holidays. I got top billing on the front of the card. The rest of my furry family is pictured on the left inside flap of the card. I think they turned out pretty good. My mom has never ordered anything from Shutterfly or Snapfish. These free cards were a nice treat, since they can be pretty expensive. Later we redeemed another free offer for 3 additional cards and she created another card design with just me. Those cards say, “be merry.” Since there is a limited quantity these are VIP holiday cards. There is going to be an intense selection process for these cards.

We will assess qualities like:

  • Do you appreciate greeting cards?
  • How much will you appreciate this card? Is it something that will get tossed or kept?
  • Do you find me absolutely adorable?

It would be really great if I could be featured on our holiday cards every year. I might try to persuade my mom to get more next year?

Happy Holidays!

The Big Blue Ball

13 11 2009
Vegas Playing with Blue Ball

Why can't I carry this dang thing in my mouth?!?

At one of the Boston Terrier Meetups another Boston  suggested I get myself one of these big balls to play with in my backyard. It sounded like a good idea at first but when I actually got one home it seemed more scary than fun. I haven’t played with this scary ball all summer. So now in the middle of fall, I have finally found enough courage to begin to play with this gigantic ball. It was a lot of fun. My mom also wanted me to note that the picture doesn’t really capture exactly how dirty I got playing. It is very tiring. Now I know why people use these things to workout.

Meet my Sister… Jaylynn

Jaylynn as a puppy with her new family

It’s been almost a year since I have last seen my sister. She was at A1 K9 Rescue with me and ended up being adopted before me because I wasn’t ready to be adopted because of my health problems. Jaylynn was adopted into a pretty large fur family she has 3 Pug sisters and a Boston Terrier brother.

Vegas and Jaylynn

Don't we look like twins?

Jaylynn’s Mom found my blog and contacted us via email. Turns out we don’t live too far away from each other now and we scheduled a play date. I go to dog parks often but Jaylynn hasn’t ever been to the dog park. So I think it was a little intimidating for her at first.  It was a lot of fun to see her again. I think we will end up playing again when it gets warmer out and maybe next time she will bring some of her brothers and sisters.

Autumn Leaves Just for Me

3 11 2009

 

Vegas with Autumn Leaves

Are you coming or what?

Most people don’t know this but leaves saved my life. When I was at A1 K9 Rescue with my prolapsed rectum it was pretty bad. Rescues have to make some hard choices. They have to decide things like how far do you go to save a dog’s life? In my case, I was probably teetering on the edge of that line. But my rescue Mom made the call to save me. She said when she took me to the vet with my prolapsed rectum as I walked in I was playing in the leaves at the vet’s office. Meanwhile essentially my butthole was hanging on the outside of my body. That is the moment when you know life hasn’t got you beat! In the words of Ferris Bueller, “Life moves pretty fast, if you don’t stop and look around, you might miss it.”

So my yard is full of leaves and I have been really enjoying myself in the backyard. I chomp on them. I run around in them. Whatever.

Trick-or-Treat!

31 10 2009

Vegas in Halloween Costume with Pumpkin

Never turn your back on a pumpkin

Yesterday was trick-or-treat in our neighborhood. It was my first Halloween ever and I got to wear my squirrel costume. The squirrels bring me all kinds of presents in my backyard, like one time I got a fresh piece of blueberry bagel. So I thought being a squirrel would be pretty nifty. We gave out a lot of candy to the kiddies and they liked my costume as much as I liked theirs.

The highlight of the night, was meeting a Dachshund puppy. The low point of the night was a tie, between being bopped in the face with a foam light saber as a uncoordinated kiddie tried to pet me and Mom making me pose in my costume next to our pumpkin. As you can tell from the photo… I don’t trust pumpkins. Overall, I would say Halloween was a success. I guess I should start planning my costume for next year.
