Snow day!!

My girlfriend came to my room a little later than she usually does this morning.  I was so happy that I almost broke my door.  We played, went outside, and played some more.  I slept happily for several hours later.  After my nap my friends lilly, mama, dada, and my girlfriend took me for a walk up a big hill close to our house.  It was a lot of fun because I was able to smell different things and get more exercise.  My girlfriend and her brother went outside to play in the snow.  They let me come with them so I put on my coat and preceded to explore the big backyard.  I was smelling the ground in this one area and did not realize that there was a hole in the ground filled with water.  Big mama and dada wraped me in towles and kept me warm till my girlfriend came inside to play with me.  I found some interesting critters in our house.  I am not shure what to think of them yet.  Big Mama gave me a warm lunch made of gravy and kibble.  It was very good.  I curled up on the couch in between mama and my girlfriend watching some silly TV show they seem to really love.  I do not care what I watch as long as I get rubbed on.  As much as I love to get rubbed I am still sensitive sometimes.  I do not mean harm but I just can not help myself at times.  My girlfriend told me about some treats that she shuld be getting soon so hopfully I will not be as sensitive.

Sleeping with friends

Today was mostly uneventful.  I took a nap with my friends.  One of my friends who is a dog named Lilly slept on top of me.  I minded a little at first but settled down when I noticed how warm she kept me by doing this.  I also went for a walk in the snow with my dog friend.  I took a lot of my naps with my girlfriend's sister who was not feeling well.  She let me sleep with her on her bed.  This made me feel so good.  I think I am getting used to this thing they call play.  When I chase a toy that has been thrown and bring it back my girlfriend becomes very happy.  Now I am happily chewing on a rawhide before bed.

Some new scenery

I woke up this morning with my father friend wanting me to go outside where it was cold.  I was a little scared to go out because it was still dark.  I ran under the desk in the other room.  Once I went out and came back in, my father friend told me I was good and let me go back to sleep.  A little while later my girlfriend's sister came down to leave for the day.  I was happy to see her.  I took another hour nap till my girlfriend took me for a walk.  She gave me breakfast and a treat.  I chewed on my rawhide in my room till my girlfriend came home.  She gave me a snack then we took a nap together on the couch.  After our nap she and her mom took me for a ride in the car to a place I have never been.  She told me it was called a park.  We walked around and I met a big rottweiler puppy.  He was bigger than I and he was eating mulch which I found utterly disgusting.  I came home, ate dinner, and chewed on my rawhide.  I feel that today was another success for a dog of my place.  I want to finish today by curlling up on the couch with my new friends and go to sleep.

The day I rebelled

I awoke this morning with my girlfriend wanting to go on a walk.  The sun was out and it was warmer than it has been.  After my walk I ran around our big backyard.  When I came inside I ate breakfast then went back to my room for my morning nap.  My girlfriend rubbed on me and gave me a hard candy.  I normally prefer soft candy but I was so hungry that I did not care.  A few hours later my girlfriends sister took me for a walk.  All of a sudden this smelly, loud, big, long, yellow thing appears.  I was so scared that I took off running.  I broke out of my warm coat off which was attached to my companion lead and I ran.  I was not really sure where I was going so every once in a while I stopped to check if sister was following me.  Once I was sure that she was I took off again.  Soon we were home and I was so tired that I took a nap.  I woke up to the sound of my girlfriends voice telling me to go on a nother walk.  The entire walk I was scared of all the different noises.  I heard cars but did not know where they were or if they were coming after me.  Later I watched TV with my girlfriend as she rubbed me all over and kept me warm.  I got angry with her on accident because I do not like where she put my food.  It is dark even when she turns on the light.  It is a little scary to go in there alone.  Usually my girlfriend sits with me when I eat so it is not so bad.  Still I felt at that time I needed to speak my mind.  Hopefully She will understand and help me solve this delemma.

My new bed and some new games

Today I woke up with my friend Big Mama.  She got me out of bed and left home to go shopping.  I was still tired so I jumped on the couch and went back to sleep.  My girlfriend came down an hour later and we napped together.  When Big Mama came home my girlfriend took me for a walk.  It was so cold outside that the walk turned into a run.  I ate a big breakfast and helped my friends fold the laundry.  One of the pieces of cloth was soft so I took it.  My friends thought it was funny.  They chased me and threw the cloth for me to go get.  I was very tired and slept a little.  I also chewed on my rawhide a lot.  I am still learning about toys.  They are soft and fun to chase.  Big Mama took my favorite pillows and blanket which made me sad for a little while.  When she finished with them she gave me two new beds.  One of the beds is in my room.  The other bed is in my girlfriends room.  My girlfriend has a young brother who let me cuddle with him while she cut papers.  I thought the paper cutting was so interesting that I went to explore.  My girlfriend told me she cut the papers in order to save money.  I still do not understand why the humans need such silly things.  I thought that I would understand better if I investegated the papers more.  An hour after we finished our project Big Mama took me for a walk.  It was so cold that I ran all the way home.  What A Day!

My first vet visit with my friends

Today was a full day.  I ate breakfast and chewed on my rawhide.  My older friend who everyone calls "Big Mama" was eating something that smelled so yummy.  I jumped in her lap, hopefully that was ok with her.  She did not seem to mind because she rubbed my ears.  After that my girl friend took me for a walk.  I began to run which caught her off gaurd.  We ran almost the entire way home.  We then went for a ride in the car.  I loved watching the window to see where we were going.  My friends took me into the veterinarian's office.  It had so many interesting smells that I could not help but wander around.  The vet tech was so nice to me.  When we whent into the room she pet me and said I was pretty.  I was not happy when she took my temperature because it was very uncomfortable.  I ran away from her a few times.  It is not fun having things put in your bottom.  When she was done I was given a treat for being a good girl.  My friend rubbed me on all of my favorite spots till the vet came in.  She was so kind and gentle that I did not know she gave me a shot till my girl friend and the vet tech scratched my ears and told me I was good.  The vet tech put me on the ground after the vet examined me.  My friends talked to them while I tried to take a nap under the bench.  The vet said I do not have a lot of health problems I need to worry about for a while.  My girlfriend and my older friend took me home.  I went for another walk with my girlfriend then followed her upstairs to take a nap.  I woke up an hour later and ate dinner.  Now I am curled up in my bed with my paws crossed waiting for my friend to tuck me in for the night.

Day One

Hello, My name is Eloise.  I am three years old and I was saved by some amazing humans.  I came from a shady situation that I do not want to talk about.  Since then I have been living with a lot of other dogs and some really nice humans.  A few days ago I met the nicest human. She pet me and took me for a walk.  After we had hung out for a while she told me she had to go so I gave her a kiss.  Yesterday her pack came to see me and talked to the humans about me.  I was so happy to see her that I could not wait to get out of the cozy bed I was in.  She held me and rubbed me all over.  She and her pack then gave me back to the nice humans.  I was sad to see her go.  After a few hours they came back and took me home.  They gave me a spa bath and lots of food and treats.  I was so scared that first night because I was not sure where I was.  The next day I woke up and played with my new friend.  We slept, ate, and watched the television.  I am so happy now.
