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.

Crash! Bang! Wallop!

The last few months of the year have been spent listening to building. Mummy and daddy decided that instead of moving to another house, we would stay where we are and make the family room/office more usable. I'm not sure what they meant because I used it a lot. Sometimes as a place to sleep or sometimes a place to go if my tummy was upset and I couldn't get outside fast enough. 

The new room took a long time to build. Crash, bang, crash, bang. I haven't been able to find a cozy, quiet place to sleep anywhere in the house. It has also been so dusty that it made my nose itch so much that I had to keep wiping it on the carpet to stop it tickling. Mummy and daddy had no idea about all the noise and dust (or my wiping my nose on the carpet!) as they were at work all day while I was stuck at home. Mind you, I became good friends with the builders and they fed me burritos for lunch, so it hasn't all been bad. In addition, I now have a brand new TV room. There is a huge furry rug that daddy and I stretch out on together. If the film is particularly bad, we sleep on the rug together too.
