Friday, December 20, 2002 ~ Woo Hooooo.... I GOT KIDS!!! <--- Hurry Up!! Go Look!! :o)

My mom's PPFF Pal Mary drove all the way to the Recycle Bin to get me the cutest lil adoption you ever did see! There's a story about those kids but I can't tell ya right now cause my ma will hear. *g* What a silly sweetie that Mary is... she searched all over to find the right adoption and when she couldn't find it she had one made for us. Mom knew she wouldn't find one so she thought she was safe HA!! Mary sure showed her huh? *giggles*  

Me and Nikki got to play all day. I even got to help her wrap presents and played in her room with her almost all day, it was great!! I love being with my Nikki and being freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! And I was a good doggy too! We played Lord of the Ball Nikki was Frodo and I was the wizard and I hadda find the ball after she hid it. Piece a cake! I can smell that thing a mile away! LOL!! :o) Love,     

Saturday, December 14, 2002 ~ Howdy Folks!!

Do you wanna know how silly this dog is? If I get up to go into the kitchen or the bathroom or something when I come back I can always count on her to be sitting in my chair. Thankfully I have learned from experience to move my computer chair far away from my desk but this chair thing is the cutest thing you ever did see. It's like she's keeping it warm for me. LOL!! Either that or she knows it's gonna be a nice warm spot when I get up. heehee...  I gotta love this silly dog!!

It has been a year since we lost our sweetie Speedy and a day does not go by without me thinking of her but Peanut has been very helpful in my heeling process. Ain't nothing like cuddling and hugging something that hugs back and keeps your chair warm!! :o)

Wednesday, December 11, 2002 ~ Added a new Zonk board so my pal Artie can visit. :o) Can't talk long cause it's a snow day and mom and me are gonna go wake up Nikki with tickles and licks. Love,  

Yayyyy... I just found out The Dinkman is bloggin!! Stop by and welcome my lil buddy and tell him Peanut sent ya!! Woo Hooo... my best bud!! ;) Love,    

Friday, December 6, 2002 ~ Yuck... That mean ol' Nikki took me outside yesterday and all this cold white stuff was all over the place. It was horrible!! I just stood there and shivered. Goofy mom was taking pictures and every time I managed to make it up the steps to the door Nikki would pick me up and toss me back out in the snow.  What a meanie!! Sheesh... she coulda put my winter sweater on. It wouldn't have kept my feets warm but at least my belly woulda been warm. That stuff is cold!! Brrrr.....

Dad always plows out a long wide path in the front yard so Nikki can catch the school bus without getting her feets wet, maybe later on today I'll try to venture out once more. Mom hopes I poop a couple times in the path like Speedy used to do. Heehee... Nikki had to step very carefully in the path back then.  Ain't she bad? :o)  Love,     

Tuesday, December 3, 2002 ~ No burglars stopped by on Thanksgiving. It was pretty boring sitting around with nobody to play with but I survived.

I had an interesting time yesterday though! Nikki was using Mom's computer and wasn't paying attention to me when I stole moms ink pen. I had the purdiest blue paws and tongue you ever did see!  And there's these teeny puppy prints all over my moms love seat! Mom was mad! Nikki got yelled at and I got a bath! Ewww.... and Nikki brushed my teeth!

On a good note I got a new collar. Dad's gotta add one more hole cause it's a bit big but this one is black and matches my every day outfit perfect. :o) 

Wednesday, November 27, 2002 ~ A special shout out to all my best buds... Happy Thanksgiving every one!! Mom's been Ms Space Cadet here lately and has been doing 20 things at once. Cooking, cleaning, computing and goofin around with me, Nikki and Nikki's friend Roxanna. Roxanna even tried out my cage. She could only get half way in but it was fun having some company. We even got some pictures while I jumped on her head. Nikki and her friends are so much fun.

I watched and whined while they made the lemon pudding pies and green bean casseroles that each will be bringing to dinner tomorrow. I don't get to go because I have to work. Remember mom's hoodie zipper I ate a while ago? Well it's time to pay the piper. My job will be to guard the house. Sure hope nobody tries to get in cause they will be in for a BIG licking!! LOL!!    

Been doing real good with my word training. I know and obey the words off, sit, stay, leave it, hush and come and as my reward mom got me a gigantic rawhide dog bone. You should see that sucker... It's HUGE!! Almost as big as me!! I carry it around so proudly and my peeps laugh and laugh when I try to bark with it in my mouth.  

Ya all have a great holiday ya hear? Love,      

Monday, November 18, 2002 ~ As you may have read on Peanut's Training page the water squirt bottle is used as a deterrent to bad behavior and as an attention getter. Don't you know the dorky dog actually likes it!! Ugh!! I don't know who's worse Chuck or the dog! He had her on his lap and was squirting the water right into her mouth and she was loving it! She was even trying to squirt the darn thing herself when he would stop! *sigh* Sometimes I wonder... Am I the only grown up here??

Friday, November 15, 2002 ~ Ok let's see if we can outline what we learned from our doggy trainer on Monday night.  I'm sure some of this is stuff most of you already know but it was helpful to see it structured out. I have to figure out why the page won't come up within the inline frames so bear with me. Until then CLICK HERE

Tuesday, November 12, 2002 ~ Mom's gotta go to the dentist. If'n he don't cause her too much pain when we come home we'll tell you about my doggy school adventures.

Saturday, November 9, 2002 ~ A special shout out to my bestest buds Precious, Artie, Dinkey. Elmo, Max, Lucky, Jax, Brie, Tyler, Prince, Sophie, Charlie, Nellie, Tess, Angel n' Honey! Hey if any of you guys have a 100% ***MOUSE MADE*** Original Quilt Square I sure wouldn't mind adding you to my quilt square page. :o) Until next time... Ya all have a great weekend ya hear? Love,      

Friday, November 8, 2002 ~ Been kinda quiet this week that's cause I gotta be good. That big ol' fat guy will be coming next month and I don't wanna miss out. It'll be my very first Christmas. Wonder how hard it'll be to stay away from the tree? I heard mom tell dad she wished she could find a large cardboard cutout of a Christmas tree so I can't destroy all the ornaments. I'm real good at that ya know. :o) Love,  

Monday, November 4, 2002 ~ Does Home Schooling your dog count as being a homeschool Mom? Heehee... If so I guess that's what I'll be in a couple more days. Nikki's mad!! Awww... How come Peanut gets to be home schooled?? LOL!! I told her she already knows how to sit, stay, lay down and poop in the potty but if she wants to learn to poop outside, I'll gladly teach her after her real school!! *g*

I contacted Peanut's breeder and she gave me a number of a dog trainer who comes out to your house and trains the peoples the commands to train the dog. All 3 of us must be present. Meaning Chuck, Nikki and I plus we're going to have to take notes. He sounded pretty interesting so we'll see how it goes.  The fun begins next Monday night!!!!!!!    

Thursday, October 31, 2002 ~ HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!  CLICK HERE to see more! You have no idea how hard it was to get this dog to stay still LOL!! What a stinker she is! Hopefully the picture taken with my real camera will turn out better than these taken with the digital camera.

Wednesday, October 30, 2002 ~ WOW!! This is so cool... I'm making all kinds of new friends here!! :o) A special Howdy to my bestest buds Artie, Elmo, Max, Lucky, Jax n Dinkey, oh and my new friend Charlie! Sure hope I didn't miss anyone! 

Aunt Diane was here today so I got locked up! I hate when she visits! But everything is sooooooo cleannnnnnnnn and fresh smelling. All my toys are back in one place just waiting for redistribution. Oughta have my scattering spree done in time for my dad to get home. Wooo Hooo..... life as a dog is so grand! I make a mess and somebody else gets to clean it up!! Love,  

Tuesday, October 29, 2002 ~ Today was a fun day! I got to bark at the oil guy, the mailman, the UPS guy and the neighbors all in the same hour. Mom forgot to check my food bowl, it was empty and I was hungry so I proceeded to help myself. Good thing for her she heard the clip fall on the floor or maybe she woulda been picking up 25 lbs of dog food. I'm a persistent lil thing. 

I dropped my bone behind the couch and instead of going around the couch by way of the floor I tried going over the couch. I got stuck. Mom rescued me. Ugh!! I hate when that happens! Later on I was chewing on the label of my new meowing cat toy. Mom tried to chase me but I'm much faster, I had to hurry up and swallow it before she could take it way. Then while she was in the other room folding the clothes her paper towel must have fallen out of her pocket. Boy did I have a field day with that! Me and her got to race for the pieces when she came back, that was fun!    Love,      

Monday, October 28, 2002 ~

Dinkey, Disney's lil brother dropped me a line yesterday to tell me my pal Disney crossed over the Rainbow Bridge on 10-17. This made my mom real sad so she spent the day making a lil doggy angel for Andrea and the kids Dinkey included. I'm sure Speedy is taking real good care of Disney up there in doggy heaven. 

It'll be a year next month that my mom lost Speedy and sometimes she still gets sad. Mom often thinks about deleting Speedy's pages but just when she thinks about doing it somebody writes to her about their silly or sick JRT. So she'll probably keep them up a while longer. Love,    

Friday, October 25, 2002 ~ Wanna make your lil doggy go nuts? Squeeze the barking doggy and the meowing kitty stuffed animal toys at the same time! Heeheehee... 

<-- Click ~ Wanna see my new step brother and sister. We share the same doggy mommy. Every time you see this it'll mean my family is growing so be sure to check it out.  Love,   

Thursday, October 24, 2002 ~ Betcha can't guess how many pieces I can get out of a paper towel?

Well hellloo there!! It's been a few days since we last spoke. Thank you to all who have visited. A special shout out to my buds Artie, Elmo, Max, Lucky, Jax n Disney, oh and we can't forget Mr. Ed!!

Whatsmatter Artie ol boy didn't ya like my cowsicle? No prob... more for me! :o)  Me and mom will be visiting you guys real soon. She hasn't been feeling good since they took her tooth, plus she got mad at me for eating the zipper on her new hoodie. Now I have to buy her a new one. She' s gonna make me sell some of my toys. I don't know what the big deal is, she never zipped it up anyway.  

Got me some new toys. I heard daddy tell mommy if she don't quit buying me toys he's gonna take her credit card away. They were having a big buy one get one free sale at dogtoys.com she told him she couldn't resist. The way I go through toys she needs to have plenty on hand. I said things like zippers, shoes, and paper towels are fine by me but she wont listen. Wait until you see my new reindeer ears I'm gonna look so cute!   Love,       

Saturday, October 19, 2002 ~ Got me a Cowsicle today. Cowsicle? Frozen marrow bone of course ~ wanna lick?  :P 

Friday, October 18, 2002 ~ The Friday 5's are dorky this week so I ain't playin! Got my Halloween costume. Ain't tellin what I'm gonna be you'll have to guess. Maybe I'll make ya pick me out of a line up or something. My Nikki is gonna be Lil Red Riding Hood and she was gonna make me be the big bad wolf but mom wouldn't let her spend 20 bucks on a costume for a dog. I almost got to be Toto too but that didn't work out either. Mom told Nikki ARE YOU NUTS?? Like if I'd let you take Peanut out trick or treating! Knowin Nikki she'd tie me to a tree and forget about me. 

Well this has to be short cause mom's decorating again. When you see this it'll be so organized you won't believe your eyes. Thank you Aunt Laurie!! :o) Oh and thank you too for my very first award. I'm glad somebody liked this place enough to give me a present. Doggies have feelings too ya know!! Love,    

Monday, October 14, 2002 ~ I thought because Nikki was older Peanut would be spared the agony of having to play dress-ups. WRONG!! Poor doggy made a mad dash out here to be saved from the confines of Nikki's bedroom/torture chamber with a bear stuck to her butt. Only to be followed by the giggling evil villain herself.

At first look my heartfelt sympathies when out to my lil sweetie pie but then Nikki told her to sit and when she did the bear sat too. Apparently well rehearsed before this presentation and after a few quick alterations when the dog ran it looked like the bear was running too but only backwards.

The silly dog was actually having a ball and seemed to know she was the target of everyone's laughter and preceded to sit on command over and over again with the bear following suite, looking almost as if the two just happened to be sitting sweetly together on purpose. Fat chance of that ever happenin' with a Jack Russell. :o)

Alas... Nikki you will rue the day. First opportunity I'll be back with a vengeance stealing whatever I can get my lil paws on and if I'm lucky it'll be that bear!! :P   Love,                      

October 10, 2002 ~ An Hour in the Life of a Puppy Mom was trying to watch Dharma and Greg but I kept on bugging her. I tried real hard to sit still and did for a little bit but my puppy instincts took over.

First I needed to give her a few licks, then I tried tasting the buttons on her shirt, got a few pets, gave her more licks, tickled her feets with my cold nose. She tried to grab me and give me a kiss all the while saying will your please keep still but I'm way faster and squirmed away.

Got a few more pets. Picked up my moose and ate the label for a bit, grew tired,  started rough housing with Mr. Moose, Mr. M whacked Mom in the head a couple times, gave her more kisses. stuck my nose in her ear, tried for the buttons again, settled for the remote control. That didn't last long. Barked at the sound in the driveway. 

Brought my bone up on her lap, accidentally chomped down on her leg. She screamed, threw my moose and bone on the floor, made me get down. Got right back up again, gave her more kisses, licked her glasses, barked at Nikki, tried to eat her pony tail, got a few more pets and she told me to be good. Whined at the gate, got a few pets from Nikki, Chuck walked by, got pets from him. Got a drink, stuck my wet nose in moms ear. gave her a few licks, watched the doggy on TV, barked at the doggy on TV, ate some dog food, jumped back up on mom, farted ('xcuse me), 

Ohh here comes Nikki! Hi Nikki!! boing, boing, got a fresh drink. Jumped up on Nikki's lap, gave her kisses, washed her face, ate her hair, buried myself between her and the pillows, stole her sneaker, chased her around the family room, gave the sneaker back, stole the other one, chased her around some more. Nikki left. Whined at the gate for her to come back. She didn't. 

Barked at the jogger running past my house. got a drink, burped, gave mom more wet kisses, found my squeaky toy, made a lot of noise. The phone rang, it wasn't for me but barked a greeting anyway, made more noise with my squeaky toy, tried to get mom to help me eat the squeaky toy, she threw it across the room, I brought it back, she threw it again, I brought it back, she threw it again, I brought it back, she threw it over the gate into the next room, I looked at it through the gate. *sigh* :o( wandered around a bit, she got up...

...turned off the TV and went on the computer, I chased my giggle duck around the room, made a buncha noise, dug under the pillows on the couch, found a comfy spot. yawn... zzzz..............  Love,               

October 7, 2002 ~ Ahhhh Autumn!! So many smells so little time! I wonder how many figure 8's I can run without loosing my breath?

October 4, 2002 ~ Friday Five:

I decided to do the September 20th Friday Five because this weeks questions about shoes did not apply to me. The only thing I can do with shoes is eat em. :o)

September 29, 2002 ~ Woo Hoo... Mom added new pictures of me! If you wanna see CLICK HERE! Being as I'm not allowed to watch TV I may as well look at something eh? My tip for today... whatever you do not buy Tropical Typhoon Mike and Ike's! Blaa..ack! They're nasty!!

I LIVE FOR THE SUNNY SPOTS!! (A... hemm... we won't name names) Somebody dragged my toy basket into the sunny spot and I want to take a nap but it's so lumpy in there, guess I'll have to take everything out huh? *g* Mom's mad cause she forgot to buy another roll of film and missed a great shot. To bad Mom!

I found a new comfy spot. Since Mom has to roll her chair so far away from her desk because of me I've been making use of the opportunity. Not only do I get a great place to catch a snooze but I get to bundle myself in her new hoodie. It's so soft and I like chewing on the flugglebinder thingys at the end of the string thingys. We always have a race to see who can get to the chair first. I always win until I see this big butt coming at my head. Ohhhhh Nooooo don't sit on me Mom!! Gosh, I love bein a dog!! Love,

September 27, 2002 ~ Friday Five:

  • 1. What are your favorite ways to relax and unwind? With a bone sitting on my favorite person.

  • 2. What do you do the moment you get home from work/school/errands? Well being as I don't go to school, work or run errands the first thing I do when my peoples do that stuff is bark and carry on until somebody picks me up then I give em a great big kiss.

  • 3. What are your favorite aroma therapeutic smells? Ok don't laugh but I do kinda like the smell that comes outta my butt! *giggles*

  • 4. Do you feel more relaxed with a group of friends or hanging out by yourself? Ohhh gimme the group any day! I love attention!!

  • 5. What is something that you feel is relaxing but most people don't?
    Chewing my bone while sitting on my favorite person.

September 25, 2002 ~ Thankfully Peanut is fine and survived her escapades onto my desk adventure. I think next time I'm going to try grounding. What do you think? No TV for a week? I know... how about no telephone? :o)  

I NEVER get to have any fun!!

September 23, 2002 ~ How's Peanut??? UGH!!!!! You hadda ask?? This dog is so bad!! I been monitoring her since dinner. My sister came over to get some of the stuff she was storing here now that her new house is finished and I hurried out of my chair to answer the door.

Meanwhile I left my desk chair to close to my desk and Peanut decided to help herself onto my desk and that's not all... She helped herself to my diabetes medicine. When I came back into the room she had the bottle with all the pills spilled out on the couch.

I rushed to call the vet, then I called my MD. Now I'm on alert to make sure her sugar doesn't drop to low. I had to give her hydrogen peroxide and water to make her get sick.

Talk about mayhem and madness... Nikki's holding the dog, her friend is holding her mouth open and I'm squirting this solution into her mouth. Then the fun really begins!!! The dog starts getting sick everywhere but won't stay still. We're chasing her from room to room with a roll of paper towels cleaning up piles as we go. (Thank heavens for hard wood floors!!!!!) All the while Chuck is sitting watching TV calmly eating his dinner telling the dog "Do you gotta go that here?" Grrr....

As some of you may or may not know I'm about half blind and forget checking these piles to see if any pills were in there. I wouldn't be able to see em anyway and no one else was willing to look! SO now I'm just hoping she just tasted the medicine, didn't like it and spit it out and just was concentrating on chewing up the bottle. Peanut seems to be resting comfortably. She ate some food so she isn't getting sick anymore and I'm just keeping my eye on her.

Needless to say between my medicine and my cigarettes EVERYTHING is now tucked safely away from this pesky lil puppy dog who thinks she's a cat and climbs on chairs to get up on desks!

Boy do I miss
Speedy!!!!!!!!!!!

September 17, 2002 ~ Hi Peoples!! Us Jack Russell Terriers need plenty of stimulation. If we're bored we only manage to get ourselves into BIG trouble. I've just been playing with my Wiggly Giggly Play Pal. Gotta tell you this is the best new toy I ever played with.

Mom got me just the Giggle Ball  first and while I had fun with that this is fun x's10!! The cool  plush outfits make all the difference in the world. Instead of just rolling the ball around, having the clothes gives us doggies the ability to grip, drag, shake toss and tumble this toy around for TONS of added fun and his nose squeaks too. I just spent about 20 minutes playing with my duck and now I'm so pooped I gotta take me a lil nap. If you have a dog he/she NEEDS a Giggle Pet!! Read below what PetSmart says about the Giggle Pet.
