Lounging

Hi there! Sorry I’ve been away so long. I’ve been very busy just being a dog and hanging out with my family. This is a fun picture of me lounging on the sofa with mom. Only three more months until the new puppy comes! I can’t wait. Playing with the cat gets boring after a while.

Guests

Having guests over is always an interesting struggle. I, of course, want to greet the new guests immediately by jumping on them and sniffing them out as quickly as I can. You know, to check them out. Well mom and dad always yell at me to get down and go lay in my bed. They try to make me wait until i've calmed down. What they don't understand is that this makes me more anxious. I tend to get really excited when we have guests over. However, after about five minutes or so, I calm down. Dad's friend and co-worker David and his girlfriend Kelsey came over this weekend. I really liked them and had fun snuggling while they played a game. Aren't I cute when I sleep?

New room...not for me!

Not to be ungrateful or anything but I don't understand why my new sibling is getting special treatment. I am a good dog, for the most part. I sit when i'm told. I potty outside. Apparently that's not good enough. This new one isn't even here yet and already mom and dad are making a whole room for it, while I get my kennel in the basement. They've started painting and everything. Besides, i'm older, shouldn't I get the big room? So not fair!

A Puppy Christmas

I look forward to Christmas every year. Who doesn't love snow, and presents, and decorations. Not to be a grinch, but, there is one part of Christmas that I loathe. It would be the annual tradition of making me wear antlers. I look ridiculous. They are not comfortable. And everyone laughs at me. None-the-less I suppose it wouldn't be Christmas without antlers. Bah-humbug! Below I am sporting my Christmas present from dad's family. A Michigan collar with a bandana attached. Don't I look good? Go Blue! Hopefully my new gift will help the season go a bit better next year.

Thanksgiving in Ohio

I spent a fun-filled week last week in Ohio for Thanksgiving with the Zimmerman’s. I had lots of fun playing in the yard with Rudy (their 14 year old dog), eating Turkey and sleeping on everyone’s laps. This is me with my mom and dad posing by the birch tree.

This is me in the car on the drive there, curled up sleeping with my Aunt Rachael. Aren't we cute?

This is me helping Aunt Rachael type her paper.


In this picture dad was teaching me to play the piano. I'm getting good!

Exciting news!

So it turns out i'm going to be a big brother! I am so excited and a little confused. When mom and dad told me I assumed that we'd all go together to pick him or her out from a litter like they did with me. But instead they are growing this one inside mom's tummy. I really don't understand why. The other weird thing is that we have to wait until next May to bring him or her home. They tell me i'm going to be a big brother, get my hopes up, and then tell me I have to wait 7 months. Humbug. Anyway the new little one is already taking after me. It started it's own blog. You can check it out at www.zimmerbaby.com. Enjoy!

Fancy new collar

Hello, sorry it's been a while since i've posted. I have been a busy puppy. For mom's birthday her BF's got her a really cool present. The really cool part is that it's for me! I got a fancy schmancy new collar. I had mom take a few pictures of me wearing it. Isn't the bone tag cute!?! I am a stud.





Thank you Carrie and Katie! You are the best!

Cats are weird

Wooster: "What is this?"
Plato: "A guitar, why?"

Wooster: "Hmmmm"
Plato: "What are you doing?"


Wooster: "I think i'll eat these strings."
Plato: "Cats are so weird"

Happy Birthday Dad!

For Dad's birthday Grandma Janet, Grandpa Guy and Aunt Rachael came to town for the weekend. It was a surprise for Daddy and I had a really hard time keeping the secret. Luckily I managed and he had no idea. Here they are after the big surprise. I wish I could have been there. :(
Grandpa Guy and I enjoying a quick snooze.
One of my favorite things to do is wake up Aunt Rachael in the morning with lots of licks. Who needs an alarm when you've got me!
For Dad's birthday Mom made a vegan light saber chocolate birthday cake. I heard it was good but they wouldn't let me have any. Apparently chocolate isn't good for puppies...blah...blah...blah...it's not fair.
So big it wouldn't fit in one frame!

To Swim or Not to Swim

We decided to go swimming one day.  I did not want to go.  I do not like the water.  Please don't make me go.
Please oh please oh please don't drop me in the cold blue pond.
Where's the wall? Where's the wall?
Dad, please take me to the wall.  I want to get out, NOW.

Burr, very cold, very cold.
As you can see, I was not a big fan of the pool.  I am a very good swimmer but I do not like the pool.  I wouldn't even take a beggin strip I was so freaked out.  Hopefully i'll never have to do that again.
