Big and Strong
I found out that I can jump all the way up onto the couch and dad’s chair without him having to pick me up. It’s very liberating to be able to get around with no help.
Dad has been leaving the door upstairs to the master bedroom open just a crack so that I can go in and play any time I want.
I guess that’s what you get for being five months old. I’m almost a puppy teenager now!
UPDATE 1/24/07: Dad tried to put my denim jacket on me but he couldn’t fasten the velcro on the front because I’ve gotten to big across the chest. I can still wear it as a vest but I’d much rather run nekkid and part of the reason dad made me wear it was to keep my chest and belly dry which means wearing it open would be pointless.

A new haircut
Yup, I got a hair cut. I’ll have the full story up soon.
UPDATE 1/23/07: Dad had a day off from work because it was snowing. I had an appointment to get my hair cut. He decided we would brave the elements to make me handsome. Dad went to get some groceries when I got groomed and when he came back, I looked like this! Dad told her that he’d like to keep the hair on my head next time but that he liked my new haircut otherwise. She told my dad that I was very well behaved and sweet and something called uh-feck shun-it. If that means I gave her a lot of kisses then that’s a very good word to use. Dad got me something at the grocery store called Bark’n Bacon as a treat and I love it.

I'm a Dogster. Are you?
Uncle Scamper and I are on Dogster. What’s Dogster you ask? Dad says it’s like something called MySpace except it’s for dogs. It’s really cool cause I can talk to other dogs all over the world and I can get tips on how to get dad to buy me toys and get information on events where I can meet other dogs. Best part is that it’s free! Check it out!

Going to "Work"
Dad took me to the outside place he goes to. He calls it work. I’ve been there once before but not all day like this. It was kinda fun because I got to meet a bunch of new people. The day isn’t over so I’ll keep you posted.
UPDATE: OK, so here I am at dad’s room at “work. I met a few new people and got to run around a huge area when I wasn’t behind bars. All in all it was fun. I spent most of the morning exploring dad’s work room or “office” as he calls it. It was pretty big and I got to look outside from time to time as pictured above. I had most of my toys with me so I played with those for the morning and I napped through most of the afternoon.
Pictured above is the mess I made of dad’s office. I got into a little bit of trouble when dad caught me looking for a girlfriend on Petfinder.com (see picture below.)
One of the ladies dad works with came by and said something about introducing me to her Shi-Tzu Lacy. Maybe there’s romance

Christmas Haul
Albert here with the lowdown on all the stuff I got for this Christmas thing that Dad kept talking about. I got all kinds of cool toys and things. Lemme run down the list.
This is the fence thing that dad puts me in when he goes outside every day. I already have one of these but my dad says I need more room to play.
Let me see... There are some treats I got for Christmas that look like steaks, I got a new, bigger rope to play tug with, I got these things that dad keeps trying to put on my paws (saying something about them keeping my paws dry and warm,) more of the treats I like, something called a Kong (I’m not sure what to do with it yet,) some biscuits that dad says are all natural, a tennis ball on a stretchy thing, a new bone made of that rawhide stuff, a small squeaky thing, a thing that is the same shape as the squeaky thing except it tastes like chicken (NOTE TO SELF: Get dad to buy another. It tasted so good I ate most of it in two
