About Me

My photo
I'm a dog. Dog is good! I was born in 2007 on the day after Christmas, which makes me a late present... I live in Marin, California with my human daddy, Dan and human mummy, Angela. They wanted to adopt a rescue puppy and although they were pre-approved, the organization declined them at the last minute because they work (while also telling them that dogs are expensive to keep). Mummy and daddy were very sad but it all turned out for the best - we all got to rescue each other and they get to spend their hard earned money on me! I'm a lovable chap and enjoy swimming, snow, tennis balls, cuddling and having my tummy rubbed. Not necessarily in that order.

Spring is in the Air


It's Time to Spring Another Milo Memo!
 


Hello everyone! Milo here!

Woof has it been a very busy Spring! So busy that we are now into the summer! I’ve grown a lot too – I am no longer the little 15lb puppy everyone thought was cute and cuddly. I am now a 57lb little boy! Everyone still thinks I am cute and cuddly though! So what have I been up to other than eating massive amounts of kibble and sausage?


I have discovered that even though I have allergies that make me sneeze all over mummy and daddy, I love walking though the flowers. They always make me smile!

I’ve also been practicing my obedience training skills and I am doing really well. I know this because I get lots of treats. I don’t always master the techniques though, as you can see here! Mummy is telling me to ‘come’ and I am doing a ‘sit’. That said, Daddy doesn’t always master the obedience skills either, so I think it’s OK if I don’t.








It has been very hot this Spring so mummy and daddy bought me my very own swimming pool! Daddy and I tested it out and I discovered that I love water!

Daddy often says that it’s very important to accessorize. I didn’t know what he meant when he bought me the swimming pool…but then he bought me my very own hammock!









Sometimes I let daddy come and sunbathe on the hammock with me because he sits next to it and looks at me with big sad eyes otherwise
 
But most of the time I just lie on it and look cute…


Anyway, it’s time for more kibble and sausage – I’m off - goodbye!
