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.

Paw-ddling Pool


Mummy and daddy celebrated their wedding anniversary by hanging out with ME!! Personally, I can't imagine a more fabulous way to celebrate and mark a special occasion! 

We rented a house in Sonoma and hung out for the weekend. We went whine-tasting at a few great dog-friendly wineries. Apart from being wonderful places to visit because they welcomed and petted me (and gave me treats), they also made tasty wine according to mummy and daddy. In case you fancy taking your dog parents there, the wineries are Enkidu, En Garde and Keenan. 

Wine tasting can be hot work, so afterwards we stopped off at Eliabeth Anne Perrone Dog Park. It was a super toasty day so mummy filled up a little plastic paddling pool for me to cool off in. It's not quite my dog bone paddling pool (which I gifted to the Milo Foundation) but I was able to fit in perfectly if I bent myself into a doughnut shape. 

Paw-fect!

Kidding About

What is this invasion on my play area??!! 

Daddy and I went to the marshes today and it has been over-run with goats!! Apparently they are there to eat all the weeds. Well as far as I can tell, they are eating more than just weeds and in the process, pooping all over the place....and nobody is clearing it up in bags afterwards!! 
Daddy told me not to worry. Goats are good and they give back by producing yummy yogurt. 
He showed me some in a pot.

And then he let me try some. It was so tasty that I wanted to eat the whole pot! I almost got my nose stuck in there!!

Bodega Bay Dreamin'

What a view! 

Mummy and daddy rented a house that sits right on top of a cliff overlooking the sea near Bodega Bay. It is so beautiful. 
I can't wait to go down to that beach I can see from this window and play in the sea.


It is so relaxing and cozy here under my blankets, listening to the sea. I find myself snoozing more than normal.


Daddy, Mummy and I are spending a lot of time down on the beach by the house. Daddy brought the chuck-it and threw the ball for me over and over and over again. It was so much fun that I didn't even notice how tired I was getting. 
I love the beach! And sea! And tennis balls! And daddy! And mummy! 

Did I mention tennis balls and the beach?!


Eventually we stopped and asked mummy if she wanted to play too but she was busy taking pictures of us silly boys.


It's so nice to come in from playing on the beach and relax in the warm sun by the window, watching the waves until they send me into yet another deep snooze. 


All this fun makes me so sleepy. Well, I am getting older now - I'm no Spring pup!
Luckily mummy had brought my favorite green friends - froggy and big snake - to keep me company. 
Oh, by the way, I'm not really sleeping on the armchair...


So the sun sets on another wonderful weekend.
Life is good.
