Welcome to the wide world of Newfie! You read it right...I celebrated a burpday yesterday! Yes, this time it was really my burpday and not Mackenzie's. I turned 4 years old. Can you believe it? Mom and dad said it's almost a miracle I survived this long. The first...
Woof Wednesday: Hey fellas! I love you!!
Heloooooooo! In case you're wondering, that's how I greet folks when I'm feeling a little frisky. There's nothing like a nice, drawn out howl to let the neighborhood know you're outside and taking callers. Cause I have to tell you I'm quite frisky these days although...
Woof Wednesday: I like snow but this is just ridiculous!
One of the most terrifying experiences of my life happened last weekend. You know how I've been hoping and wishing and praying for snow? Well we went to visit the grandparents down South and they had a LOT of snow. Not the puny 3-4 inches we had at home. I'm talking...
Woof Wednesday: Save me from the evil tube!
Oh great furry ones, Have you ever encountered something in your house which you thought was perfectly safe and harmless but suddenly watched it become dangerous and evil? It hasn't happened to me often but the last few days I have been tormented by a HUGE cardboard...
Woof Wednesday: Snow is in the air
Hey everyone, How's your week going? Did you get any snow? We sure did! Now I hear it's not much when you compare it with all the snow my friends have been getting in the States, but for this area it's rather uncommon. At the very least, it hasn't been happening in...
Woof Wednesday: We need more snow!
Woof, woof Friends! Hope 2010 is off to a stellar start for you and your family. It's been quite chilly here in Germany...the humans are saying something about -11°C (11°F) in the mornings. I don't really know what that equals in dog temperature but let's just say I...
Woof Wednesday: The best Christmas ever
Hello my dear furry friends! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and got lots of fun and yummy treats from your family this year! Or were you a bad dog who only ended up with a lump of coal under the tree? To tell you the truth, I would be just as excited about the...
Dog- and kid-friendly walls
Once every six months, we have to repaint the walls in our foyer and at the top of the kitchen stairs. These are the locations where Ayla lays most often, usually flipped on her back with her dirty feet up in the air and on the wall. In April, before we had visitors,...
Woof Wednesday: The smells of the season
Dearest puppy friends, How the heck are ya?? Did you survive Thanksgiving without getting in trouble for stealing the turkey? Did you get rewarded with lots of tasty treats because you were such a good dog and behaved so well around all the guests? I have been happily...
Woof Wednesday: Was it MY happy burpday?
Hey puppy pals! Something strange happened today. Mom and dad kept saying that it was Mackenzie's birthday. And you might recall, I am also sometimes known as Mackenzie. But when it came time to unwrap the presents, all of them were given to the baby. I figured if I...
