Merry Christmas

Wishing all my doggy pals a very Merry Christmas.
I know I haven't been around in a long time but I hope to see you all in the New Year while mummy is on holidays with me.
Love you and miss you all

Celebrate

Today I am wearing one of my newest and most fanciest outfits from Petitude yet.
You see today is my mums birthday and I am helping her to celebrate it by looking my best.
Don't I look smart?















Thank you Petitude for sending me this fantastic formal suit so I could celebrate with my Mum.

And Happy Birthday Mum even though you said I couldn't have any cake because I've put on so much weight the top button on my outfit couldn't be done up.

I Like Miss Mousy

I've decided that I like Mouse. I didn't think I would with a name like that but it turns out she is nothing like a mouse at all. In fact she's kinda like me.
She is quite small for a horse, just like I am quite small for a dog.
She loves to lick people just like I love to lick people.
She likes to be cuddled and petted just like I love to be cuddled and petted.
She loves to run around and be silly sometimes just like I love to run around and be silly.
She absolutely loves to eat just like I absolutely love to eat.

Yep I think MM and I are gonna be great friends.

Boaz gets a friend

Poor Boaz has been awful lonely since his pony friends next door moved away so my mum has been very busy these past 2 weeks trying to find him a lil friend.
And today he got one...

Boaz Meet Mouse

Mouse is an 11yr old shetland pony my mum adopted from the RSPCA.
She is very loving and friendly and we hope her and Boaz have a long and happy friendship together.

Also Goodbye to Meg and Eddy from next door. You are sorely missed.

Outing

Where are we going mum? I hope it's to the dog park, I'm in the mood for socializing.

This isn't the dog park but alot of dogs have passed through here recently, I can smell them. Where are we?

Oh I don't like the looks of this at all.

Ouch that hurt, why'd you do that for?
What did I do to deserve this?

Last week I went to the V E T (Very Excruciating Torture place)

They stuck a cold, hard thing up my bottom and left it there for ages. Then they stuck their fingers in my mouth and placed a cold silver thing on my chest.
Last of all, the most awful and painful of all, they stuck a needle in my neck and injected me with poison.

I was shaking like a leaf the whole time. What did I do to deserve all that?
Was it because I chased the cat again?
I'm sorry but he was asking for it, he always does.

I think I'm in love

My mum recently got the dvd 'Beverly hills chihuahua' and we have watched it together 5 times now.
I cannot seem to take my eyes away from the screen when I see Chloe/Angel and my mum says that I am in love.

As I have never experienced this thing "love" with anything other than my mum or my ball before, I was wondering whether it is normal? Or whether any of you have ever felt this same way over some dog you've never even met?

Please help me. I'm starting to wish that I lived in Beverly Hills, Yikes.

Nautica But Nice

My mum went on a holiday without me? Whaaatt! I don't believe it, how could she?
Though in all fairness she did ask the place where she was staying if she could take me and they said only if I stayed in a crate outside. Seeing how it's winter here now and I am an indoor only short-hair chihuahua mum thought it'd be better for me to stay at home.
I however tend to disagree with her but anyway this is where she went.

A peaceful little place called 'Coles Bay' on Tasmania's East Coast

And this is where she stayed in a beautiful & cosy little unit called 'Nautica but Nice'
She did some sight-seeing and some bush-walking.
Then on the way home there was lots of snow so it was probably a good thing that I didn't go afterall.

52 hours

By Gizmo

My mum left me at home for 52 hours straight. I can't believe it, she has never done anything like this before. The longest she has EVER left me at home for is 4 hours.
Luckily my Nanny minded me so I wasn't alone but that's not the point.
One minute we were happily playing ball together, the next minute, I turned around and she was gone.
Where did she go?

1 Year Anniversary

1 year ago today is the day that my mum and I found each other.
For those of you who never read that story, it's on my sidebar to the right.

I have had a wonderful last 12 months with my mum. Not only has she spoiled me rotten by buying me lots of clothes and toys but she also made me this blog which helped me to find all of you guys.
You are all very dear to me and I could never have wished for a better life or better friends than I have now.

Winter has arrived

Today is technically the 1st day of winter here so normally I would be very depressed and I would of been if not for this beautiful and glorious sight right outside our front door this morning.


This picture was taken from our front porch. The water you see is called 'The Derwent River' and the mountain where the rainbow starts in front of is called 'Mt Wellington.'
Mt Wellington is our main mountain here in Tasmania so is generally referred to as just 'The Mountain'. It rises to 1271 m AHD over the city and is often incorrectly considered to be a dormant volcano.

Goodness has it been a month?

So sorry everybody. My mum has been so busy this past month she didn't even realise we were gone for so long. You must of all been wondering what happened to us?
Well not to worry, we are still here and we are both ok.
Mum says she can't post as much as she was before but she will try for once a week.

Here is a recent photo of me in case you all forgot what I look like.

I'll drop by your blogs & catch up with you all soon

Hello Cocky

When my mum went to visit her Grandma over Easter, she took me along and introduced me to a very weird creature who has been in her family for a very long time.




This is Cocky an Australian Cockatoo. He is 52 human years old and is really funny. He talks just like a human so I couldn't understand a word he was saying but I think he was in a bad mood. He kept screeching and throwing his head up and down alot so I didn't stay by his cage for long.

Anyway I hope all of you had a lovely weekend. Mine was busy but yet rather relaxing as always. I'll stop by all your blogs soon.

Tormentor

My mum recently got a ringtone for her phone that sounds just like my squeaky toys.



I think she is mean to tease me like this. What do you guys think?

All Mine

"No you can't have it!"

Naughty Boaz

Boaz destroyed his mid-season rug last week so mum had to rush out, on the weekend, and get him another one.
Geez and I thought I was spoiled.

This was Boaz, last year, in his then brand new mid-season rug.


This is the big tear he managed to put in it, in only one day too I might add, thereby destroying it after only wearing it for 1 autumn and 1 spring last year.


And this is Boaz in his brand new rug which my mum hopes will last him a lot longer than his last one did.
It should seeing how it cost twice as much.

Oh yeah he knows it!

New Ball - Mini Basketball

Mum bought me a new ball. It's a mini basketball that squeaks.
So who of you wants to join me in a game of Basketball?
