So Much To Tell You…

Hi everyone,

I have not been very good about keeping up my blog but, that’s what happens when you are dependent on a human to do your typing for you….not to mention, she has to translate from dog speak.

So much has happened in my life….I like to tease Jack especially when we go down the stairs.  I run really fast so, I am in front of him.  Then I hide around the corner and when he rounds that corner, I leap out and lunge at him and try to scare him (doesn’t work).  Well, about a month ago, I guess he had all he could take of my antics for one day so….when he rounded the corner and I jumped out, in my usual “Mighty River” fashion, he bit me.  I mean he BIT me…just below my eye.  So…I had to go to see Dr. Wayne…and he gave me antibiotics and shaved my face.  It was gross.  Plus…he gave me “the cone”..a plastic one.  My dad decided I needed a softer cone so, he bought me a Comfy Cone on Amazon.  Here I am looking like a lamp plus, I now know the real meaning of it’s all fun and games until someone gets “the cone.”  I bumped into everything for over a week.  (Mom would not let Dad take the cone off until she felt my wound would not re-open).

Not wanted to be the only one featured in this blog, here is the culprit…Jack…looking guilty don’t you think?  I know…he uses his “broken” ear to get sympathy…..jack 053016

Well…back from a trip to the school yard…it is time for a little dog nap but, I promise to return soon.

In the meantime, please check out some great fundraisers in Huntington Beach that are coming up in June!!

Love and licks,

Holiday Time is a Time for Caring & Sharing

Hi, it’s me, River, again!  Sorry it has been so long since I last blogged but, I recently had dental surgery.  That is very scary for a dog.  I had a little tiny tooth pulled which was bothering me.  My mom says she wishes I had dental insurance but, I don’t.

The holidays are just around the corner….Thanksgiving, yum, yum…I love turkey, stuffing and gravy.  I know I will get a little of each….and then there is Hanukkah (which begins on 2008-12-24_merry-christmas1-hanukkahDecember 6th this year) and of course, Christmas, on the 25th.

 

 

And speaking of the holidays…did you know that you can buy your cards at Cards for Causes and give back to your favorite charity at the same time?  That’s right, go to www.cardsforcauses.com and you can select a charity who will receive 20% of your purchase plus you can even have a charity benefit line under your name!  Can you believe that?  It’s true.  You can even select my mom’s favorite, Soroptimist International of Huntington Beach.  It’s listed under the Public Benefit drop down.

So, at this time of too much food and good cheer, remember to share with others, just like Jack & I share our toys…..well, sometimes he takes mine when he thinks I’m not “sharing” enough!

Happy Thanksgiving!
