Me and mom on the stairs

When mom got home from work today, I followed her upstairs cause I have to know where she is at all times, but I wanted her to come downstairs cause I wanted to be downstairs instead, so I sat at the top of the stairs and moped. Mom thought it was adorable, so she copied me. Sheesh.

Here are the questions Mr. JackFreckles asked:

1. Whats your Nickname?  Where do I start?!? Let's see, here are a few: Laceybug, wigglebutt, baby girl, sweetie pie, and quiet.

2. Do you like your furblings if you have any? I've been an only pup for a little over a year.  My angel furbro Shakespeare, who was with me since the day I was adopted, passed away in May of 2013. We got along well, we played together sometimes, and we almost always went on walks with mom together. I remember a few times mom would have to yank me out of Shakey's way so he didn't pee on me instead of the tree or pole, BOL.  We miss him lots.
 
3. What do you do when the phone rings?  Hmm, nothing.. I don't think mom's phone rings much, sometimes it vibrates and then she types on it. She's not a phone human.

4. Do you evfur howl?  I used to howl at sirens!

5. Do you dream?  I do, mom says sometimes I make funny noises in my sleep or move my legs around.

6. Who is your fave unfur in your furmily, your Mom, your Dad, or an unfurbling?( or someone else?)   I'm a mama's girl!!!! I have to know where she is at all times.

7. Did you evfur get in trouble using your teeth?  I did when mom first adopted me at age 4. We would play and she told me I had to learn bite inhibition, whatever that was. My sometimes biting when playing went away when I got older.

8. Where is your fave place to go to visit?  I love going to any parks! I am an outdoorsy nature pup.

9. Are you allowed to run free anywhere?  Sometimes in our small backyard, but mom's always out there with me.

10. Do you sleep curled up in a ball, or stretched out?  Both!  Here are some pics from last month of me sleeping:

"I've never seen that" BOL!

Me and mom were walking this morning, and a lady laughingly yelled to us "I've never seen that"!  I'm thinking she's never seen a white schnauzer before, cause many people haven't, but nope, she said "I've never seen a dog telling its owner where to go!" BOL!! She was noticing that I'd walk in the opposite direction mom wanted me to go, and mom would follow me. BOL! Mom told her I'm a stubborn princess, which I am of course, and mom lets me do what I want, which she does of course. We're glad we made somebody laugh today, BOL.

More dogsitting photos

Hi pups! Life’s pretty good still. Mom and I take a couple walks a day, length depending on the weather. She lets me lead her wherever I want to go, I mean, I don’t always want to go towards the park mom, there’s good smells over here and here and there too!

I got a haircut last week, just in time for the hot weather. I look as skinny as I am, which freaks mom out of course, but as I remind her often, I only eat when I feel like it. Anypaw!

Mom and her roommate went on an overnight trip last weekend, so I got a different dogsitter. He took some pawsome photos of me! Now remember pups, I am skinny but not sick or neglected (I’m spoiled rotten really!). Mom feeds me all kinds of good stuff and treats, I’m just not food motivated. So don’t freak out, ok?

Boring Birthday

Woof! My pal Doo and her mom made me this – thanks Doo and mom!!!

My birthday was kinda boring. It rained so I didn’t get to walk at the park. :(  Instead mom took me to PetSmart to walk around and sniff, and she bought me a couple new canned dog foods and treats (dog poo bags being the exception - not a treat, BOL).  There were lots of good sniffs in the store and the parking lot, and I barkbarked at a couple of dogs, but do you know not one person stopped to pet me?!?! What is wrong with people?!?! Then mom took me to PetCo for more sniffing, but yet again, no people stopped to pet me!  I was pouting about this the whole time. I tried to walk towards people and they didn’t walk towards me. Again, what is wrong with people?!? Geez! It’s not like there were lots of other doggies in the stores to pet, and people had free hands with which to pet me. I dunno, maybe the people in the stores were cat people or something *shudder* BOL. 

I also wasn’t feeling well most of yesterday so I didn’t eat much. I was active, but I didn’t eat anything until 8pm or so last night; I ate a mix some freshly boiled chicken and a few scoops of a new canned dog food.  I did eat 3/4 of a small plate of chicken, canned food, and Stella and Chewy’s patty pieces this morning though, which of course made mom all crazy happy.  She’s so easy to please.

Anypaw! Even though it was a boring birthday, I have fun times every day and am a totally loved and spoiled princess, so really, every day is like my birthday. :)

Hope everypup has a pawsome weekend!

Today is my barkday!

Arooo! I am the big 1-2 today! And as usual on this day every year, mom’s smothering me with the happy birthday wishes and birthday girl endearments. I like it, BOL. My birthday last year was sad cause my angel furbro Shakey was in the hospital, so mom said she’ll make this birthday extra special. I don’t know how she can top my daily routine since I’m already a super spoiled princess. Maybe not taking bathroom breaks while petting me? I should never stop being petted unless I declare it. Hmmm.. maybe steak along with chicken and pasta?!? Oooo…. Woof!

Right now she’s at work making my treat money, but this afternoon we’re gonna go to the park and the pet stores where I will get lots of attention and she will buy lots of treats! Happy Barkday to me!!!

Dogsitter weekend

Hi pups!

I had a dogsitter this past weekend cause mom and her roommate went to NYC. Even though NYC is a very dog-friendly city, apparently the buses don’t let doggies on, so I had to stay home. Sigh. If you want NYC details, mom’ll probably post pictures and stuff to her Facebook page, maybe here too if she sneaks on while I’m napping.

Anypaw! I wanted to share the photos my dogsitter took of me this weekend.  He was super nice, he fed me my usual buffet of chicken, pasta, Stella and Chewy’s patties, dog kibble, and treats. He gave me lots of pets and affection, and we hung around outside when the weather was nice enough for it.  He tried to walk me, but I didn’t want to go on walks outside of my yard - I don’t like going on out-of-yard walks with anyone but mom. Mom says this is a new “quirk” of mine, but she’s just learning about it now cause no one else has tried to walk me until recently. (Who me, a mama’s girl?!? BOL)

Oh! Here are the photos – I’m adorable as usual, BOL!  You can see where the vets shaved my leg for my dental, and in a couple pics you can even see my shiny white teeth!

Boy was I happy to see mom and her roommate last night! I jumped on them both and I even did zoomies around the living and dining rooms! Mom would yell “Lacey go!” and I would zoomie around, wheee!

Hope everypup had a good weekend!
