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.

Pedigree Genes

Today daddy decided that mummy and I could help him look for new genes. I know a thing or two about good genes. After all, I am a pedigree! 

The fact is, you can't find good genes, you are born with them. 

That didn't stop daddy from going to a shop to find some. I did try to tell him that you don't get good genes from trying on lots of clothes but that didn't stop him. He just kept looking and looking and looking. It was so tiring that I had to have a nap in the fitting room. 

Good genes give rise to good behaviour. Now let me tell you, daddy needed some new genes because today he was so badly behaved that he threw all the clothes he didn't like on top of me!! I am not a clothes horse....nor am I am clothes dog!

The good news is that daddy did find new genes. Or at least some new clothes.....and his behaviour did improve. He has been walking around like a newly brushed alpha dog ever since!!
