Here I am with my mom and dad in the backyard they put in just for me. Okay, maybe they would have put it in anyway, but I like to think it was just for me. I am biting their hands, and to tell the truth, I still do.
When I was a little guy, I used to leap off the stairs into dad's arms. Here I am mid air, just like Wonder Dog. It sure was nice to know dad would catch me at the bottom. When I started getting bigger, they had to stop me from doing this or I would have taken them out.
Is that the cutest damn puppy bum? Mom and dad are playing with me while aunt Yvette took pictures. Here is dad on the ground taunting me to attack him. Yes, it worked!! I ran and attacked him.
Here is my adorable puppy nose. Dad is leaning in to give me a kiss and I had to reciprocate is effort. Once again, big word for a puppy, but my parents are teaching me very well.
I am a true lap dog as demonstrated by my laying with dad on the couch. He doesn't let me stay too long cuz he says I'm too heavy.
I have this affection for baseball hats. Usually dad's, but today I was feeling frisky and attacked mom's hat. It is generally her scrunchies I go for, but today I wanted that hat. Charge!!!
Like I said, I'm a lap dog. Here I am on mom's lap snuggling with her. She is good to snuggle with, except that she kisses me on the nose constantly and she says, "my cute puppy nose," and then kisses me. Ahhhhh!!!
Here we, me and Sadie, are for my first birthday party. It was fun and they had a puppy birthday cake for me. Alright, it was really a puppy pizza with extra meat and cheese. Who cares what it was, it was yummy!
Here are dad and me sleeping on the floor. I don't know how we got here, but it sure is nice having my head on his pillow and having his hand on me. We had a good snooze and mom loved taking the pictures of the two of us.
What in heavens name is she thinking? Her mom brought over these ears for us for Christmas in '07 and she just had to put them on us. As you can see, Sadie is none to happy about having to wear them.
That dad of ours is quite the guy. He makes sure Sadie and I get equal attention. He loves us both, but I try to think he loves me more, but I am just not sure about that. Here we are in the kitchen with our dad and we are giving him a kiss. SMOOCH!!
Here I am with mom in Seattle. I had just barely met her after my long flight from Fairbanks, AK. I was so happy to be out of that kennel and in the arms of my new parents. I can't believe they flew all the way there just to get me and drive me home.
