Christmas Gifts

Even though this year I was left home alone for most of the Christmas celebrations, I am glad to see that Santa didn't forget me. After all he made me dress up as an elf.

Tonight my owners showed up with bags full of gifts. At first I stayed away from the bags because I'm afraid of them. I just don't like how they sound and that is why I try to stay as far away from them as I can. However mommy kept calling me closer to the bags and taking things out of them.

Slowly I began approaching the bags. How could I not? Stuffed animals were coming out of the bags. As soon as I saw my Christmas toys I wanted to get to them. I love chewing, licking and shaking them. I shake my stuffed toys so hard that when I release them from my tight grip, they fly across the room. I always fetch them back, and I do it so fast that Master never gets to them before I do.

Anyway, Santa brought me Mr. Teddy, Mario, Monkey Boy, Skunk, rope, Mr. Tiger and Doggy. So far I'm loving Mr. Tiger and Doggy. Thank you Santa!

I'm an Elf?

My grandmother, from my Master's side, thinks that this Christmas Santa is going to need my help. That's why she has decided that I should be dressed as an elf.

Grandma M. invited us over for some tea and I thought I was going to get my usual, a nice cut of chicken and my toys to guard.

To my surprise there was no chicken for me tonight, just some carrots and a little gift bag.

Mommy opened the gift bag and was very happy to see what Grandma M. had bought me. Being the curious dog that I am, I went closer to them to see what they were looking at. Next thing I know, mommy grabs me and stars putting clothes on me. The end result, I was dressed as an elf. The outfit included a jingle collar and a christmas hat.

If it is true that Santa will be needing my help soon, he better make sure I make it on his nice list. He better get me everything I will be asking for.

New Jacket

Remember how I told you mommy said I was getting fat? Well, it seems she was right.

Today the UPS guy showed up with a box and mommy was super excited. Next thing I now she takes this red blanket and puts it on me.

Ok, it is not a blanket and I do look hot in red, but she better not think that I'm going to be wearing this jacket and those winter boots when we go out for our walks. What will my friends think?  It is one or the other, but not both!

Winter Is Boot Time

I thought that the fluffy white stuff from what my human owners called winter last year was a once-in-a-life-time thing, but it seems this winter thing is an annual event. Mommy has been bringing out winter sweaters, scarfs and jackets to try on me. She says I might need a new jacket because I have grown - taller and wider.  Now I'm afraid she might put me on a diet.

Tonight mommy said that I should put my winter boots and practice walking with them. Somehow she thinks I might have forgotten how to use these shoe things.

Well, all I can say is that I'm not happy to be wearing boots. Can you tell from this picture how excited I was to be wearing my winter boots?

What I don't understand is why mommy and Master kept on laughing at me. They are delusional. They say that once I'm outside I won't mind the boots so much. I don't think I'll be using these boots this winter. These things just suck and I want them off my paws. Get them off now! Please!
