I liked today a lot

March 28, 2007

We went somewhere called Olympia to an awesome place called PetSmart. It was really fun. Then I was in a big circle with 2 other puppies, a big one and a medium one. And we did some fun stuff and my mom got me some good dog treats. I liked today a lot.

I did not like today at all!

March 27, 2007

I had to go back to that vet guy and this time he stuck something in me that really hurt! That was not nice. Then when I got home I had a really hard time breathing. My mom gave me some nasty stuff and that helped a lot. I did not like today at all.

My friend Rose Lee

March 21, 2007

My mom got me a present today, a little mirror to hang on the wall by my food bowl so I can play with that other Shih Tzu (Rosa Lee) I see upstairs. I just can't figure out why she acts so playful but never will play. And she always does exactly what I do. She's kind of strange… My mom has been trying to find me a good bowl too cause I can't eat out of a real dog bowl cause my nose is so tiny. I feel like I will suffocate. So she got me a cute little lavender plate (she said it was a flowerpot saucer, whatever that it). I hate to tell her that it's not any better than a bowl because it's a pretty color and she is trying so hard. I guess she will figure it out when I don't eat out of it. She needs to just put my food on my placemat (and mom, how about getting me a cool placement instead of this ugly blue thing!).

My mom went back to work today

March 19, 2007

My mom went to work today (wherever that is) and left me in my cage with my toys. She said her pupternity leave was over. It wasn't that bad, although I chewed one ear off my loofa. My mom says she will sew it back on. I sleep in my cage and my mom comes home and lets me out and plays with me and then goes back to work until late. Then she plays with me some more till bedtime. And when my mom works on the computer, she takes me up upstairs and I have to wear the collar and the leash so she can keep me from getting in trouble. My mom has my leash around her wrist and whenever I get too far away, she pulls me back. She thinks it's a good way to "leash train" me but I hate it. That Kato psychotic sits up in this tall thing and stares at me. Carlos follows me around but when I try to play he makes his snake noises. It's no wonder I sleep so well at night, I'm so busy all day. I found out that big brown thing I play with is called an "otter". I really love him.

My first three days

March 18, 2007

I have learned a lot in the 3 days I have been here.

That thing called Carlos is a cat. I'm not sure what to make of him. He seems friendly but he is really big and he makes funny noises like the snakes I have seen on TV when I get too close. The other thing that moved so fast is a cat too and his name is Kato. My mom says he is psychotic. I don't understand because she said he was a cat. He isn't around much and when he is he seems to be in the air a lot.

There is a yard here with grass which is nice, but I can't get down the big things called stairs so my mom has to pick me up and put me out. It's easier just to go to the bathroom inside but she seems to run around a lot when I do that. Then just when I was starting to feel secure and getting into everything, my mom got me a pink thing called a "collar" that she put around my neck and I do not like it at all. It itches and I can't get it off. Then there is a thing called a 'leash'. It's a pretty pink color too but now it's hanging off me and I don't know why. I do know Carlos keeps catching it and pulling on it. Mom said it is so she can take me for a walk. She said she is going to take me to school. I don't know if I like the sound of that.

I found another puppy just like me upstairs. I try to play with her and when I jump, she jumps, but she never will play with me and when I try to get to her I bump my head on her. It's very confusing. She looks exactly like me! My mom calls her Rosa Lee.

The Vet

I slept really well last night and I can barely remember where I was before yesterday. Today we went to see someone called the vet. He poked and prodded but then he said I was really cute and healthy and everyone was happy so I guess it was good. He said I weighed 2.4 lbs.

My New Home

March 15
Now my name is Little DJ. I am 6 weeks old and I have human kids to play with and have a lot of fun with my dad DJ and my sort of puppy half sister Emmie Lou.

But today DJ and Emmie Lou’s mom put me in a box and then in a car and then on a boat called a ferry. She said I was going to my new home. I was really scared. I just went to sleep and hoped when I woke up it would have been a bad dream. But it wasn’t. We got off the ferry at a place called Mukilteo and there was a lady there who grabbed me and just started hugging me. She really seemed to like me a lot; she kept saying I was the cutest thing she had ever seen. It felt pretty good when she was cuddling me up against her. Maybe this won’t be so bad after all.

So then I said goodbye to DJ's mom and my little human brother and this lady put me in a box in her car and we went on a long ride. She told me she was my new mom. She talked to me a lot and left her finger poking through the door so I could smell her. Pretty soon I went to sleep. When I woke up, we were in a park in a place called Federal Way cause I had to go to the bathroom but she said we were not “home” yet. So then I got back in the box (she called it a carrier).

Then we got “home” and I met my new family. There is a huge furry thing she calls Carlos and there is something that moves really fast called Kato. I’m not quite sure what it is because it was just a blur. The Carlos thing seems friendly but he is so big. I wonder what he is. I don’t think he is a dog.

But I am so tired I am going to go to sleep. This nice lady has a big cage for me with a nice soft bed and a little pink blanket and some toys in it. There is a big brown thing in there that looks like a pillow, about 10 times bigger than me, and a cute little long pink bunny called a loofa. I am going to get in my bed and cuddle up against it and go to……….
