Swimming is Fun?

I got to go to St. Edwards Park over the weekend and I jumped into the creek! Now it was a little deeper than I thought it would be and was a little startled. Luckily, I was out with humans and the tall guy that lives with my humans fished me out. It was really hot outside so it was a nice refreshment. So nice, in fact, that I tried to jump in on the way back! But they sensed my attempt and kept me out of the water. I guess they didn't want the car to get wet. It was lots of fun. I am getting braver about the water and when I went to Walnut Creek with my humans I did a lot more jumping around in the water. I got to meet lots of people and dogs this weekend. I really like. There was a new dog a couple of blocks down that was always outside when I came by. He is not from Austin and we had ourselves a little fling. My humans wouldn't let us be alone though and so we just sniffed each other and jumped around. He was really cute and maybe he'll visit again soon. This morning, he was gone. I was a little sad, but I'll be even happier next time I see Buford. I got to eat this new yummy treat! It's got fish and sweet potatoes in it! YUMMMY!!!! My humans put it on my food to spice it up and they also freeze it in my Kong!! I love my kong!! I find it in my crate, wrapped up in my blanket and then I pull it out and I get to lick it and lick it and taste all the yummies in it and I chew it and it is so good!! I just heard a squirrel or maybe it was the cat that goes under our deck. I need to check it out.

Long Walk.

So Saturday I got to go on a long walk with lots of other people by the Capitol. It was really awesome. I even broke a law. I played in the fountain in the lawn of the Capitol. There were lots of people and lots of dogs. I played a little but kept mostly walking. It was a long walk but they had water along the way and I got treats. I was a really good girl. well, mostly except for when I was biting my leash and wanting to play with my humans. I was bored. We were just sitting around before we started walking. Why couldn't we just walk from the beginning? We had to stand in line before we could even start walking. Humans are weird. They played this song before we started walking and I got to show off my Ninja Kick that I've been secretly working on. As soon as the music started and they were singing about Kung Fu fighting, I jumped up and did my kick whirling around in a circle. My man human was always asking me to do the Ninja Kick before the walk. I think he saw me practicing one day. I barked at some doggies and they barked at me and we wanted to play but our humans wouldn't let us. I got to sniff lots of butts, dog AND human. It was really fun. I wasn't nearly as tired at the end of this walk as I was the walk we went on in May. It was lots of fun. I love going on walks!!

Partying a little hard

Yesterday I guess I partied a little too hard. While my humans were out, I got into the trash. And what a yummy time that was! I ate cheese - the rind and all. I ate some other unidentified objects. And I ate chocolate cake!!! It was so good. So good in fact, that when my humans came home, I couldn't resist it and kept licking it. Of course, I got in trouble for the trash. But then, my humans took me outside and with a turkey baster, made me drink three tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide! (Thanks Emergency Hospital.) And I ate grass like a mad cow. Trying to get as much in as possible. Next thing I knew, I'm puking my guts out like I drank all night long! I was pretty pissed. After I puked out what felt like my whole stomach, I drank a little water, and rested in the grass. We went back inside and I took a nap. I wasn't very pleased with my humans and gave them the cold shoulder for a while but then it was okay and I played and played and played and played.
