A bit on the silly side, but sweet!

Please ignore the feline's intelligence. It's only a movie.

A Trip Down Memory Lane

Our senior dog, Linguini, the eleven year old dalmatian mix, was adopted when she was a little pup. M had been looking for her lost cat at the Pasadena Humane Society and had to pass by the dog kennels first. She saw Linguini shivering, all by her tiny self, inside an enormous outdoor kennel. It was November; a cold and rainy month. 

M was forced to jump through various bureaucratic hoops in order to adopt Linguini, but it was worth it. Of course, we have not adopted out of that place since. 

 M's peanuts instantly fell in love with this beautiful and sweet doggie.

Linguini grew up with Rosie, our beloved chocolate lab. Soon, she'll be joining Rosie at ... the rainbow bridge. We're trying to get used to the idea. 

Linguini is a sweetheart--an angel of a dog.

 She welcomed me into the family and was always gentle with my tiny sickly self.

Her second favorite thing is going places...

 ... but what she loves the most is FOOD!

Linguini is so sweet-natured, she even put up with Pedrito!

We love our senior spotted dog!

(She enjoyed yesterday's dog hike so much that she forgot about her dog arthritis and even chased after a bunny)

It's A Dog's Life

After complaining about the weather yesterday, I woke up to a beautiful sunny day. Because we're expecting more rain and cold, I am going to seize the opportunity and go dog hiking today.

Before I go, let me share how I spent my morning:

My pack enjoyed themselves as well:

It's a dog's life alright!

Have a glorious Saturday.

Last weekend, it was snowing at my hood. I can't stand the cold.

I'm a tiny virtually hairless dog. I need to stay warm.

Chiweenie Canine Good Citizen Strikes Again

This past Saturday, Frankie, the chiweenie, the canine good citizen made us proud!

Petco hosted a huge reunion to celebrate with old dog training graduates. The event was beautifully organized by trainer extraordinaire Ms. Cyndy Wood. There were tons of games and prizes and even a raffle for a free dog training session.

My chiweenie sissy was amazing! She won the first three games before we decided to leave and give other doggies a chance. Frankie came home with a huge back of dog treats, a stuffy, and some Pill Pockets

A couple of hours later, our phone rang. Frankie also won the raffle!!!

Guess who's going to get the dog training session!

GIGI SMUDGE

7 mos

Pointed Kitten

Little Gigi was a not-very-attractive kitten. Her head was shaped like a water melon and she appeared to be swollen. Her colors were also rather diluted.

Her development was average, with the exception of her eating habits. She was the first to dip her lil' nose in the milk bowl; the first to eat something other than her mommy's milk. To this day, she's the chubbiest of the kittens and the one that loves food the most.

Gigi does practice proper kitten hygiene.

She's an excellent huntress of artificial mice and usually beats her litter-mates to a toy.

Gigi was, and still is, subjected to the abuse of Pedro, the chihuahua puppy.

She has brown up to be a rather beautiful pointed kitten that does not enjoy human interaction much.

Gigi is momma's girl. She loves to hang around her mommy and be groomed frequently.
