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.

Summer Holidays - Reservoir Dog

Woo Hoo! I love road trips! What a wheeze driving along in daddy's car, sniffing up all the smells whizzing by in the air! The air goes by so fast that I have to squint. Not to mention it makes my jowls wobble!
I can't decide whether it is best to hang out in the back of the car and let the air rush into my face or just sit sedately next to daddy in the front of the car, and sniff with sophistication. 
On the way, we stopped to take pictures of ourselves. Mummy and Daddy took turns posing with me.



Eventually we arrived at a great big reservoir, where daddy and I swam after each other. I can actually swim a lot faster than daddy as I have twice as many legs but I let him think he is the alpha swimmer.






When we get tired of chasing each other we just swim around in the lovely fresh water. Sometimes I will pretend daddy is an island and try and climb on top of him. He doesn't find this game nearly as entertaining as I do.




  


At the end of our swim, we sat together on the rocks, sunbathing and drying off before we did a road trip back home. What a fabulous day!
