The Charlotte Pet Expo

Snowy here...again... as always... ready to give you the scoop on my adventures! Today was a lot of fun so far and it's only half over! Another half birthday? No... not so soon my human says, but it sure FELT like it!

It all started like this, Once Upon A Time..... hehehe... I always wanted to say that. My humans were awake unusually early this morning and got me up also. While they were rushing around (they must be going somewhere again) I just hung out on the couch and waited...whaaat...doesn't every pup sit on the couch like this?

Then we went for a ride to watch all my friends on the really loud things they ride on arrive and leave. My human said that they were leaving for the mountains where the roads were really curvy. Phew! I'm glad we're NOT going with them. I just ate breakfast and I would like to keep it in my tummy please.

Then...we went into a place that is like the place with the food and the other dogs on leashes, but this wasn't like that place. hehehe.. this place smelled like dirt. My human kept me on a super short leash and we practiced sitting... and staying... and laying down... (sigh)... and dont pay attention to the humans... or the things they push... and yes, let them pat me, but don't jump... ugh...geesh! That wasn't really fun. At that time I wanted to go home. I was totally bord. That was really no fun.

Ha! But then! It gets better! WAY better!

LOOK!!!! IT'S PENNY'S HUMAN!!!!!

Where ARE we??? Look at all the dogs!!! This is gonna be FUN! I don't know what it is, but I think my human felt bad that I had such a tererible time at that other place she brought me here. Lets go inside... please? please? please? pleeease???

Hmmmm... What does the sign say??? I dunno, I'm a dog, I can't read, but I CAN tell what goes on over there. Can we go there first? I think I gotta go potty....


Look at all the humans! and the SMELLS! Mmmmmmm. I smell other dogs, people (not so good) treats, food and... hmmm... something else I just can't put my nose on it. oh well... walk on humans, lets go check this place out!


First things first... My human gave some other humans some paper and they let her spin this round thing. After it stopped the other humans let my human take a ball... odd. why did she have to spin the thing? How come she couldn't take a ball. humans are really strange...
Then. what? who's this??? Hayyyy! I know who that human is! I see him on TV all the time! He helps other dogs who need help...I'll have to have my human edit that sentence later... Anyway. His name is Shorty and HEEEES the Pit Boss! His Pit Bull is named Hercules and they live wayyyyy far away in the TV at home. Most of the time. I guess he got out.  I wanted to meet him, but there were too many other dogs around and he looked really busy. NEXT....

 
 Now THIS dog was scary! He seemed all cool in the beginning, but what my human didnt take a picture of was this dog...yah that big one right there... BIT the other human! ON PURPOSE! Really hard too! So hard that the little fluffy human fell to the ground and was yelling. Then his human said "OUST!" -- that means drop it by the way.-- And he did, right away and acted like nothing happened... weird. I think he's a little unstable... Can we go please??

Look at this! I'm famous! They have a sign with ME on it! No, not really, but it sure does look like me... These two guys thought it was me. They wanted my paw print. I told them I was a little too busy for handing out paw prints today, and I flipped my ears forward and winked. hehehe. No, really, I didn't, but wouldn't that have been fun? 

Woahhh! STOP! Right here! Look! Agility!!! Can we? Can we? Can we? PLEEEEASE??

YES! We are next in line. My humans are AWESOME! I was told that Penny's human has a video of me on the agility course. I can't WAIT to see it! I was a pro runner and jumper, I had NO idea what I was doing and the thing that looks like a tube with a sheet attached to it was a little scary, but I was brave and the human that was training my human said I was a natural and did really well!!

Then it was time to go home. I was SO tired! All the water bowls smelled funny from all the other dogs drinking from it.. ewww... dog slobber. When I got home I took a LONG nap. when I woke up, I had this thing around my neck. My human said it was because I did good at Agility.

I wear it proudly!

What a Great Day!

6 Month Old Pointer Mix Puppy Birthday

I was told that TODAY I'm 6 months old! My human said it's my half birthday. Hehehehe...I so don't know what that is, but OK... I'll go with it. Sounds like fun...   So now that it's almost over I'm having my human tell you about my day and how AWESOME it was. (grin)

First, we went into the yard and they let me dig up roots. These things are fun to crunch on and superior tug-of-war players!







I got to hunt for birds. Yes! That's ME!!! Right there with my foot up. I'm concentrating really hard on that bird, but it keeps moving and so do I. My human show's me this on the thing she's writing this on...When it stops, I stop. It moves, I move... then I POUNCE!!! No wait, I think that's wrong. That's what a cat does. OH! I stand still... with my foot up. Gotta remember the foot.

 Then my human took out all these things and put them, one by one in a bowl and mixed it all up. Oh WOW did it smell GOOD!

 

But whats this??? Whats this left in the bowl? For ME??? Ooohh... (lick lick lick) Mmmmm.... (lick lick lick) Thanks! I don't EVER get to do this. I'm liking these half birthdays. But guess what? There's MORE!!! YES! Really. Can it get better than this???


 

Oh yes it did! I not only got the bowl, but I got the spoon too! I think I'm in doggie heaven! So then, she put whatever this awesome stuff was into the really hot box. I don't know what it is, only that it made some of my whiskers smell funny when I got too close to it. I don't like that thing, but my human isn't afraid of it. She puts stuff in there all the time. I just wait for her to close it up and look in through its window.



 Then... wait! It gets better! After my humans ate and they cleaned up their mess... they have more than one bowl for their food. I don't know why because they put it all in one bowl at the end... I don't understand my humans, but they love me and I love them. So anyway, I was told to go out on the deck and "Blide". That means wait there and don't move. (sniff sniff sniff) I think I smell that stuff that was in the bowl earlier.. I wonder if I'm going to get more?

 I was told to close my eyes and I would get a surprise.. (sniff sniff sniff) Oooh... I think I know what it IS!!!


WOAH! ALL MINE??

My humans are so awesome! This is the thing my human made for me! All for ME because it's my half birthday!!!




Nom...Nom...Nom...Nom...





Before anyone asks, yes, I only had half. I gave the other half to my buddy Shasta. He may be old and grouchy with me because I have more energy than he does, but he can still share my cake. It IS my half birthday after all.


Zoe's Puppies are 6 months old!

HAPPY 6 MONTH BIRTHDAY PUPPIES!!!!
