Adventures Of A Misfit.

Katie has informed me that because of my leaky bladder issues (Im incontinent...didnt know if you knew that one or not) I will be recieving a diaper on Friday. GGGGGRRRRREEEEAAAATTTT. I am not happy! I will most likely, while Katie is gone, eat them one by one....because I am way too cool for diapers! HMMMMMPH

Well thats really all the news for now....I'll let you know on Friday how the diaper situation goes!!

GOOD NIGHT!

HI EVERYONE!!

I have been such a busy girl behaving this week! Katie has started giving me a peanut butter filled Goughnut every morning and I am no longer eating things, such as her CD's and books! I think she likes me a little more now when I am not doing that!! I have also been very good while we are walking. I am learning (and quickly I might add) to stop and sit at crosswalks! When I do I get treats!! I love treats!
Well I just wanted to catch you guys up on whats been going on in our household...I was told we may be getting a bird soon, I dont know how excited I am about that, but we shall see!

Have a GREAT day!!

BARTLES!!!

2008-06-26T20:29:00.000-07:00

This is Bart. Being a dog!

GURNEE!!

2008-06-26T20:23:00.000-07:00

So on Monday, we got to go to the park again. Just Katie, Pickles, Bart and me! We stayed for about an hour and I had sooooo much fun!! I ran and ran and Pickles and I got to wrestle all over the place! Bart played some in the water and then realized it was water and freaked out! But we all slept like logs the entire ride home!

I hope we get to go back again really soon!!

I hope all is well with everyone!

GOOD NIGHT

WOW its been FOREVER!

2008-05-18T17:57:00.000-07:00

I have been so busy tearing up Katies new door and a book that I completely have not had time to update this blog! Im so sorry! Well to catch you up on the things you have missed, we moved. Very very confused about that. One day I was at my old place, then at Paul and Kevins, and then at this new place? It was such a strange week! I did really great the first week in my new place, but then I realized that I was in a new strange place and decided to start ripping the paint off Katie's brand new pretty door, she loved this. One day I even got one of her books! YUMMY!

She then started to bring me to the store, where I had to sit in a kennel, under the counter. I didnt like this at all. No fun!

However now I have my walkers back and I am back to my normal sleeping all day while Katie is gone. There are so many new smells up here that I am exhausted after all our walks!

I promise I will keep this more updated, now that I am not tearing apart the door, I have a lot more time!!

GOOD NIGHT

Im back!

2008-03-23T21:32:00.000-07:00

Wow Its been a long time since I posted here! I've been very very busy! People have been trying to get in my home for about month, I have been told they are okay and there are just looking at it but I still dont like them. That has been keeping me extremely busy because I have to spend all day trying to hide all of my treats! I have gotten to stay with Paul and Kevin a couple of times, which is fun for a little bit, but boy am I ready to be home when Katie comes back!

Well I hope all of you are doing well. And Happy Easter!

Good Night!!

Hugs Not Drugs

2008-01-28T11:47:00.000-08:00

I have been having a really great week!! I LOVE the snow sooo much and Katie lets me play and play in it all the time. I also got a new shirt, I love it too! I wear all the time. I even wore it a couple days ago when I went to the store to see Paul!! It was sooo exciting, I love seeing Paul! Attached is a picture of me in my new shirt....I look sooo good!

Have a great day!

January.23.2007

2008-01-23T20:28:00.000-08:00

Today was such an AMAZING day!! Katie left really super early and I was distraught because she left my rawhide up in my bin.....so I barked and barked and barked and barked and barked. :) BUT THEN in the middle of the day someone came to walk me!! And we walked and walked and I was sooooo good and happy!! ANd right before she left she gave me my rawhide...I was sooo happy! Then Katie came home and I have her lots and lots of kisses, and then we went for another walk! Thats right three walks today! I was sooo happy and such a good girl. Plus I LOVE the snow!

GOOD NIGHT!

RATS!

2007-12-28T19:18:00.000-08:00

Today was an exciting day!!! Well more tonight was exciting...when we went down the alley for our walk...a rat thats right a RAT ran under the gate. So of course I ran under the gate to get it, and got caught...and realized that it was much easier to get out once the gate was open! Then I tried to get the rat the entire walk! They were everywhere. I swear. I love rats.

I am exhausted now and am going to sleep for the rest of the night!

GOOD NIGHT!

Merry Christmas!!!

2007-12-26T21:52:00.000-08:00

Today was quite the day! Katie has been home for two days now, yesterday was Christmas and we went over to Paul and Kevin's, I was a little annoyed because of all the dogs, but it was an okay day! THEN today, she moved around the entire apartment, through out our tree, and used this new vacuum that moves on its own and chases me everywhere. I hated that! I also didn't enjoy the moving stuff around because I had no where to be, but she did bring me a new rug which I am extremely excited about!
Luckily tomorrow she is going back to work and I can go back to sleeping all day long. Without all these annoying disruptions!

GOOD NIGHT

Hmmph

2007-12-18T20:52:00.000-08:00

So yesterday, on Katie's day off, we went to the store. I was so excited at first because I got to see Paul. I LOVE seeing Paul!!! But I thought that was all we were doing, but boy was I wrong! She made me get in a tub and then did my nails. I hate that! After my bath though I decided to break open a Kangaroo Tail treat that just happened to be at my height, so she had to give it to me. THEN she made me spend the entire day at the store, even though I was trying to get customers all day long.

Since eating that yummy treat I have had a tummy ache and have been sleeping non stop, especially after the mess I made for Katie when she got home tonight :)

Hopefully I will feel better and wont have to go back to the store for while!

Attached is a picture of me and my sad face!

GOOD NIGHT!

NEW!

2007-12-04T23:19:00.001-08:00

Here's a photo of me before the snow showing off my great new coat!

SNOW!!!

2007-12-04T23:16:00.000-08:00

I got my new coat today and was very excited because I got to wear it in the snow! I love snow. I was burying my face in it to get to smells, and then had to shake it off because I would be covered!! Then I got to play with this Puggle and we were sliding all over the sidewalk and wrestling! It was soo much fun! Now I am exhausted and going to go to bed. Attached it a picture of my in my new pretty coat and the snow!!!!

HAVE A GREAT NIGHT!

December.2.2007

2007-12-02T19:13:00.000-08:00

So this past week has been a very busy one! I had to go to the store on Friday with Katie, because she was home all day AGAIN. And she made me get a bath and did my nails. I was not happy at all! Although I did get to see Kevin and Bart. But after our bath she made me sit in the store forever. I was not happy! Yesterday it snowed and the sidewalks were ice! I was sliding all over and eating snow the entire walk!! It was very exciting. Other then that this has been a normal week, hopefully it will stay that way and Katie will go back to leaving all day!

GOOD NIGHT!

LALALALALALA

2007-11-23T19:04:00.000-08:00

So Katie has been home with me the last two days ALL day, and I am starting to get annoyed, yesterday she moved around the house and then re-moved it back again, and cleaned everywhere! And if that wasn't enough today she brought a tree into the house. I don't get the tree and I am kind of annoyed she put it in here, but that's OK because I have been sleeping 24/7 these last couple days! Attached is a picture of the spot I have been in and haven't moved from!!!

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

The Vet.

2007-11-19T18:10:00.000-08:00

Today I was extremely excited when I woke up because I got to get in the car! We were driving for quite some time until we finally parked. I got to walk in a new neighborhood which was very exciting! AND THEN I SAW PAUL!! I was soooooooooooo excited to see him, and we went into the vets office with him! It was very exciting! I then saw Dr. Rovner! He was feeding me lots of treats, and I love treats! However, after the treats was when it all went downhill, another person came into the room and put me up on the table...weird. And then they stuck a needly in my arm...OOOOWWW. And if that wasnt bad enough, they put me on my side and held me down, even with three people holding me down though I still won and got up! HA! Which is when they decided that it was enough and I could go. While we were walking out I saw a kitty...! And said goodbye to Paul. We then drove all the way home where I fell asleep for the rest of the day. That was not what I wanted to do this morning! And I was worn out!

Lets hope I dont have to do that again for a while!
GOOD NIGHT!

5 dogs

2007-11-11T23:54:00.000-08:00

i've been staying at kevin and paul's place this weeknd. 5 dogs. i don't really like being just one of 5 dogs. i'm used to being by myself. still, i've had a good time. new smells. we like new smells. and squirrels. lots of squirrels to go after. woohoo! squirrels.

2007-11-03T19:28:00.000-07:00

I have still been pretty good. I had to go to the store yesterday to get a bath, and I was not very happy. I was trying to attack every dog that came in and I was attached to the tub!! Katie brushed me for about an hour and I was soooo annoyed but very patient! When we were done with the bath she put me in the car which was when I decided to rub myself all over the place to get my smell back! We then went for a nice long walk and then I came home and slept alll night long! Today was a pretty boring day, I sat at home all day while Katie was at work! Hopefully my good attitude will come back soon and it was just because I was in the store!

Wish me luck!
GOOD NIGHT!

November.1.2007

2007-11-01T19:08:00.000-07:00

SORRY..Its been soo long since my last post. But Katie and I have been super busy. We had to stay at Paul and Kevins with the other dogs...which I was not too happy about but still had fun playing all day! I also got to hang out in the store with Katie a couple of the nights, which I was excited about for about 5 minutes and then I was ready to go home! I was although very excited because I got to go to the airport TWICE, which I have never done before! The first time we dropped Paul and Kevin off which I was very upset and confused about, but then we went back and picked them up!! I was sooooo happy!

I have been a really good girl the last couple of weeks, so last week Katie and I went on a LOOOONG drive up north. I was extremely annoyed that she made me sit in the car that long, but when we finally stopped we were at a park where I could run and run with other dogs. It was soooo much fun and I was exhasuted.

We are finally back to normal, well as normal as it gets around here, and I am as happy as can be!

I will try to update this more often!

GOOD NIGHT!!!

2007-10-16T18:47:00.000-07:00

So I have still been really good on our walks, however Katie has come home twice now to something chewed up! Two nights ago it was a pen...luckily I didnt get to the ink! and tonight it was half of one of her notebooks. I get really bored during the day when she is gone and apparently decided I wanted to eat her things! Although tonight when she saw the notebook I gave her my best sad face and everything was ok, although she still told me "no". I know its wrong but I get so lonely! Hopefully this is just a phase because Katie doesnt like me chewing things up...I dont know why.

Attached is a picture of the pretty blue scarf that Paul got me from the show...I love it :)

October.7.2007

2007-10-07T22:25:00.000-07:00

I have been doing really good lately. I seem to be over the bikers and joggers, because I haven't tried to attack a single one. I ignore them completely and keep walking on my way. Which means we get to walk farther then normal because I am being so good!! I do still get really excited when I see other dogs, but for the most part I sniff them and then move on, I am kind of rude that way! But they'll get over it! We are still a little nervous about my vet visit on Thursday but hopefully it will turn out alright and I can back to be normal again!!! We shall see! I haven't wet the bed in two nights, which is great!

I have also started to be incredibly adorable in the morning. Katie and I wrestle every morning! I like to throw myself on top of her and roll around! Its soooo much fun! I don't know what happened or what changed but I am doing excellent and everything is great over here!!!

Attached is a picture of me rolling around all over the bed....aren't I cute!

October.6.2007

2007-10-06T17:58:00.000-07:00

So its been a good week for me, attitude wise. However I have started to wet the bed while I am sleeping, which Katie does not like. I get to go to the vet on Thursday and hopefully he will tell us that everything is perfectly fine! Yesterday we took a two hour walk along the lake which I thoroughly enjoyed. I slept for the rest of the afternoon and night because I was so exhausted. We have been going on longer walks lately and I am enjoying every minute of it! I get to "chase" lots of quirrels and bunnies and cats! Thats my favorite thing to do!!! Well attached is picture of my at the lake. And I will try to update this more, especially after we go see the doctor!

GOOD NIGHT!!!

September.29.2007

2007-09-29T21:00:00.000-07:00

Sorry it's been so long since my last post but its been a busy week. Last Sunday night I got to stay with Kevin and the dogs for the night and then Monday during the day because Katie left me. It was okay but I was incredibly excited when she came home! Then, yesterday I got to go to the beach and roll around and get really dirty and gross. It was so much fun. But then Katie made me go to the store and take a bath...ew. I hate baths. Although when I was done I got to see Paul and Kevin and then I went home with them AGAIN!!! I was super excited to go play with Chuckie some more, although he wasn't too excited to see me. I stayed with them for the night and came back to the store today to go home with Katie. And let me tell you I am exhausted!! I am going to sleep through everything tonight, and probably wont even wake up tomorrow! Oh and by the way I am still doing extremely well on my walks and being outside. Katie is incredibly proud of me.

Have a good night!

Olive has officially found a new and GREAT home. She is moving at to the suburbs with a retired couple and a backyard. They are the parents of one of the employees. She is going to have a great life and we will be getting updates.
Meanwhile I am as happy as can be!!! Today we went to the small dog beach and I wrestled with a boxer and a pit bull mix in the water. I had a BLAST!!! And I was such a good girl! I am now exhausted because it was such a long and tiring walk, but I just wanted to share the fact that I again am the only dog in this house and absolutely loving it!! YEAH ME!

September.12.2007

2007-09-12T19:50:00.000-07:00

I had the best adventure ever yesterday!!!! So after Katie left for work, with Olive, I went to work at the back door, that Katie had forgotten to lock. :) After lots of work I got the back door open and took off. I was found on Halstead by a guy on a bike and eventually ended up in the back seat of some womans car!!! I thought she might take me to the store to see Katie but no instead Paul and Kevin came and picked me up!!! It was sooooo exciting, they took me to there house where I got to play with Chuckie for the rest of the afternoon until Katie came to get me. I was sooo proud of myself for escaping. We left Olive with Paul last night and I finally had my house back for at least one night. It was the best night of my life!
Then she came back..... :(
Lets hope I never do that again, because I think Katie was a little worried about me, but I sure did have a GREAT day!!!

A side note from Katie:
Olive is currently looking for a new more permanent home. If any of you reading this are interested please let us know. She's a great girl, Shirley is just a one dog family kind of girl.

THANKS!

2007-09-08T21:19:00.000-07:00

I am still doing incredibly well. I am a little jealous that Olive gets to go with Katie eveyday to work, but I am sure I will get over that. I also do kind of miss sleeping on the bed but I refuse to share the bed with Olive for right now. I saw lots of rabbits today on our walk and I was extremely excited about it!! It took us a long time to walk around our normal path because I kept stoppping and staring at them!!

Nothing else new to report for now!

GOOD NIGHT!!

September.2.2007

2007-09-02T19:39:00.000-07:00

I am amazing! We ventured out further then our normal walk yesterday. Not quite to the lake but almost there and I was such a good girl! I was so concerned with where we were walking and the treats I was getting that I could have cared less who was there and who we were passing. I am being so good with Olive too, now that I have realized Katie isn't getting rid of me or replacing me. I am still and always will be her baby!! Thats all for now, I am exhausted from the bath Katie made me get earlier and playing with Paul and Bart and avoiding Pickles.

This is how much Katie LOVES me!!!

Have a GREAT night!!

August.30.2007

2007-08-30T21:07:00.000-07:00

Enough about Olive for a while, this is just about ME! I am doing such an amazing job lately on our walks. I have improved 100% with joggers and bikes, just by getting treats when they go by! Katie is so incredibly proud of me and I get lots of love when I am a good girl. I know I may still have problems in the future but for right now I am being AMAZING!! Thats all I wanted to share for tonight. Wish me luck on our many more walks to come!

GOOD NIGHT!

August.28.2007

2007-08-28T20:57:00.000-07:00

So Olive and I are getting along a little better. We have accepted eachother and both learned one anothers place in the house. Olive still thinks that she gets to hog all of Katie's time but Katie has told her otherwise! I am still very protective of my bathtub, because thats where I keep my treats. I am also truly enjoying my alone days with silence, and no Olive.

I am being such a good girl on walks too! I can tell that Katie is extremely proud of me being such a good girl. Nothing else really new around my place. I have included a picture of Olive and I, its the only one so far, so enjoy it while it last!

Have a good night!

August.24.2007

Welcome Olive. The new edition to my household. I am not very happy about this new edition, but I am sure I will get over it soon. I better! She is a little shy around me and hides under the bed all the time, but I think thats a good place for her! I am not sharing anything with her because this is my home and my stuff!

We found out about Olive when Paul and Kevin were sent an email from a customer who had received an email. In this message the woman states that she had found an American Eskimo outside in her lawn. Completely covered in dirt and mud and scared to death. She needed someone to foster her or take her in if they didnt find the owners. This message was sent to Katie and the next day she was picking Miss Olive up.

She is incredibly shy but slowly making great progress. I have been told I am still the princess of the household, but I am still unsure about another dog staying in my home!

Well thats all the new news for now, I will keep you informed on the new kid of the house!

Included is a picture of the new Olive....I guess she's a little cute.

GOOD NIGHT!!

August.19.2007

2007-08-19T18:57:00.000-07:00

Today was an exciting day! It started off with last night, Katie brought Chuckie over! I was a little confused why at first but then when she went to go to bed I tried to play with Chuck, like old times. He wasnt having it...so I decided I didnt want him to be here and slept at the end of the bed all night long. We then woke up and went for a nice walk, just Katie and me! Thank goodness. Katie then left for work, with Chuckie and I was not very happy.

I was happy though when Katie came home without him!!! We went for a quick walk and then jumped in the car. I was sooooo excited! We went to the store, ran in really fast and then left. It was ok though because I got to ride in the car!!

Then when we came home I got a new collar..I LOVE it and I look amazing in it! Thank you very much.

I am including a picture of me sniffing Chuckie, because thats what I did before bed.

GOOD NIGHT!

2007-08-15T21:25:00.000-07:00

I have been SUCH a good girl this past week. We have been on our normal walks, only Katie has started to do "watch me" and "find it" while we are walking, so I am getting tons and tons of treats all day long. I caught on to that really fast and now just stop and stare at her constantly! I start my in home training next week and hopefully that will help me to not want to bite joggers anymore!!!!

Wish me luck for tomorrow, I have to go the VET!

GOOD NIGHT!

August.11.2007

2007-08-11T19:58:00.001-07:00

I did surprisingly well today! I was home by myself for almost the entire day, so by the time Katie came home I really had to go outside. I did soo good on our walk even with the streets full of people. I was so focued on walking that I didnt even notice half of the people we walked by. I am such a good girl! I also ignored a bunny who ran into some bushes we were walking by! I am now going to go to sleep forever because I had a busy day of napping.

Wish me some more luck for tomorrow, so we can get through this weekend with no problems!

August.10.2007

2007-08-10T20:48:00.000-07:00

So I have been doing really good this week on our walks. We are still just walking around our block and we aren't venturing out to the lake yet. I have a meeting with the trainer on Tuesday and hopefully we will be able to fix my problem. I got lots of new snacks today, and I was very excited about all of them, especially the Kangaroo!!! Today on our walk I spent a good 15 minutes trying to find a rabbit that ran in front of us, I was trying especially hard to get my body under the fence where he was hiding, I failed.

I'll try to update this a little more often, I know I haven't been keeping up as much as I was before.

Wish me luck this weekend with all the craziness going on in the neighborhood!

GOOD NIGHT!

August.4.2007

2007-08-04T20:33:00.000-07:00

Its been an exciting and stressful week. I had a fall back type incident on Wednesday with a jogger and Katie is now trying to figure out how to help me. I know something is wrong and that I did something wrong I just dont understand what. I know she wont give up on me so I am trying my hardest to be a really really good girl this week. I know I can be good, its just I have my moments. But I still know that I am loved by many people and that I will always be taken care of, so hopefully some more one on one training will help get over this issue. Thank you for all of you that have asked about me! I love to know you all still remember me!!!!

This picture is me with my entire nose stuffed in a Starbuck's Parfait cup...and boy was it tasty!

GOOD NIGHT!

July.30.2007

2007-07-30T21:39:00.000-07:00

Its been a while since my last post! I got to stay with Paul and Kevin (and Bart and Pickles and Chuckie and Lucy and Kathy) this weekend. It was fun for the first five minutes...Dont get me wrong I loved seeing Paul and Kevin, but could have done without four other dogs. I like being the only dog, I get spoiled. Plus I really missed my Katie! and I was kind of enjoying hanging out with her mom. I almost forgot to tell you the best part of this weekend, I got a car, thats right I get to stick my head out of a moving window again!!! And I am soooooo excited. I try to get in it everytime we walk by but Katie wont let me.
I am still doing pretty good on our walks, we haven't been able to go to the park yet, but maybe tomorrow we will. Whenever Katie gets home its too dark. I hope we will get to soon though! I miss the park!

Well I am off to bed, still resting from the last weekend full of playing!

Good Night!

July.25.2007

2007-07-25T21:20:00.001-07:00

Today was a good day. I woke Katie up again this morning to go for my walk! I was walking really slow and far behind Katie during our morning walk, I had the sense that she may be gone for a while so I decided to make that one last longer. I'm brilliant. When she finally got home tonight we got to go on our second walk. I passed a jogger tonight and completely ignored him, Katie was very proud and I got lots of praise! I enjoyed that. I also got to play with a little beagle for while, until I got bored and kept walking. The rest of the walk was really good and now I am going to sleep because I am exhausted!

Hopefully I will do just as good tomorrow because Grandma (Katie's mom!) is coming!!!!! and Katie is leaving to go watch another dog, which I am not too happy about but will get over very quickly!

Wish me luck for tomorrow!!

Good Night!

July.24.2007

2007-07-24T20:16:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was a good day for me. We went for our normal morning and afternoon walk, but then when Katie came home we went a different way around the neighborhood. I was very excited about that!
I have started to wake Katie up in the morning before her alarm goes off because I am so excited about our walks. I sit at her face and make whining noises until she finally gets up. I think its cute and I know she loves it!
This mornings walk was really good, I went through the entire walk with no problems. However tonights walk was not so good. We walked almost all the way to the park but not quite. I was trying to attack every jogger we went by, I am not sure why because I was in an awesome mood. But I did. Katie tried everything to distract me but nothing helped. Some day I hope that my hatred towards joggers will go away, because people never get to see the happy and loveable me, just the snarly me who wants to bite thier ankles!
Wish me luck tomorrow!

Good Night!

July.22.2007

2007-07-22T21:39:00.000-07:00

Again it was just an okay day. I got a great surprise today when Paul picked me up and I got to go to the store where Katie was working! I got to see Keli too! However I also had to get my nails done and a bath. Both of which I hate. But it was managable. We then returned home where I got to hang out with Bart for a little while.

When Katie came home, we said good bye to Paul and headed towards the beach! I was walking really well even walking past bikers and joggers with no problems at all! We didnt get to go to the beach today because of my bath earlier in the evening, but I was okay with that. It was when we were on our way home that my problems started. As I said I was walking really well, until one jogger went bye and I tried to get her, I even barked at her! I dont know why but she was the only one I got upset with!

We walked straight back home and now I am sleeping for the rest of the night. I had a long and stressfull afternoon and I have to start working on my anger towards joggers, escpecially those that are incredibly close to me!

GOOD NIGHT!

July.21.2007

Today was an okay day. It started out okay, I jumped into the tub again this morning and went to sleep while Katie was getting ready for work and didnt really move when she went to leave. I'm really not caring anymore when she leaves because I know she is coming back!

When she did come home we got to go to the beach!! I got run and run with a whole bunch of dogs and I did soo good. We played in there for at least a half an hour and I was getting wet and sandy. It was a blast! We then continued our walk along the harbor. I decided today to roll around in the grass twice, which was good because it got all the sand off of me!

On our walk back I decided I really didnt like bikes again and went after all of them, no matter what Katie did. I havent done this in a while and I am not sure what set me off but hopefully it was a one time thing because I was doing very good before today!

Well I am exhausted and am going to sleep for a long time, but wish me luck tomorrow!!

GOOD NIGTH!

Today was another good day. Although it started off a little weird. Katie this morning discovered that I like to sleep in the bathtub when she is gone. She found this out while she was in the bathroom brushing her teeth, I decided not to wait until she left because I was so exhausted, and snuck behind her. I slowly climbed into the tub layed down and went to sleep. She was taking pictures of me and laughing (I dont know why) and I was extremely annoyed at that because I was trying to get some sleep. However she soon left and I returned to the tub where I slept all day.

When she came home we got to go for a nice looonnggg walk down to the park. I was very good on this walk, and I even did ok with the bikes and joggers that passed. I did get to say "hi" to some dogs that we passed, however the majority didnt want to say "hi" back. It was still a great walk though. It wore me out! Thats all the excitement for today!

This is one of the many pictures Katie took of me in the tub...aren't I adorable?

GOOD NIGHT

TODAY WAS QUITE THE ADVENTURE!
It started out as a normal morning, Katie took me for my walks and then went to school. But while she was gone later in the evening the storm hit and the rain was coming down in BUCKETS!!!! I was very excited when Katie came home because I needed to go potty really bad! However when we walked outside not only was it dark but it was still pouring AND the sidewalks were like large swiming pools! I wasnt very happy but Katie still made me go for a walk. I was shaking the water off the entire time we were walking! Then I realized how much fun the large puddles were and Katie and I started to play in them...I HAD A BLAST and got SOAKING WET!!!
Now is where the wierd part comes in, while we were on our way back there was a man standing in the middle of the sidewalk and he was covered in BLOOD!!! EWWWW. Anyways he was talking to himself about here they come, the sirens is what we assumed. And then stopped Katie even though we were both trying EXTREMELY hard to run by him really fast. Anyways, he stoppped us and was telling Katie that it wasnt his fault and that it was an accident, and that he didnt want them to take away his son. WHAT?!?!?! This is when we both got a little nervouse, but Katie being the kind person she is aksed what was wrong. The man said that his son had fallen and stabbed something into his leg and now it was open and gushing blood...again EWW. He then asked Katie and I to go up and make sure his son was okay while he waited for the ambulance, headlines flashed through my head about a girl and her dog being stabbed while checking on a deranged mans bleeding son! This is when we quietly turned around and started to walk as fast as we could back to the SAFE apartment. Needless to say I learned a lot today,1) I do not like going potty in the rain, 2)water makes me shake, and 3)never ever stop to talk to men with blood on them standing in the middle of the sidewalk in a torrential downpour.
Gotta Love Chicago.
Katie is SOOOO lucky to have me around to keep her safe!

I would like to add another little story that I heard Katie telling last night on the phone and it made me realize why dogs are so much smarter then people. So last night Katie went to "Treasure Island" to buy me carrot sticks, and some other stuff, but mainly just carrot sticks. Anyways as she was checking out a couple of police cars pulled up the the front door and she began to get a little curious. She then noticed a man back by the carts who a couple of the employees were talking to, the man was talking about something very serious. Then just as she was about to help pack up her last bag, Katie overheard the cashiers talking about what had happened, they said something about the man had cargo pants on and in the pockets he had stuffed as much Imported Cheese as he could fit. Thats right IMPORTED CHEESE. This is the part in the story where Katie loses it everytime she repeats and everytime she even thinks about the imported cheese shoved in this man's pants. I just thought I should share this because apparently people find this very funny, and it kind of fits with today's events!
Again, Gotta Love Chicago

GOOD NIGHT. (I hope)

Today was a little but of an off day. I was doing really good like usual, and I was even ignoring a lot of the dogs that we walked by, mostly because I didnt notice them. However I decided that I didnt like a man that was walking by us and as he passed went to bite him in the ankles. Luckily Katie noticed this before I was able to actual grab him and before he even noticed. I dont why I wanted to do it, but being good this long just wasnt working for me. And I needed something fun to write here! Life was getting to boring with me being such a good girl!

Hopefully the little issue of biting ankles will be the next thing that goes, because thats not a good thing for me to be doing!

Keep wishing me luck because I am soo ADORABLE when I am a good girl!

GOOD NIGHT!

I just wanted to add onto today's post because Katie just ran into a man hanging found posters for a beautiful girl and helped him out. And wanted to post her picture just in the off chance someone reading this may know someone who has lost their baby. She was found on Roscoe St, just off Broadway in Lakeview without tags and needs to find her home! Thank You for your help and let us know!

Another good day! I am soo happy I am doing so much better because I get a lot of attention, treats, and praise when I am this good! My only complaint now is that I miss playing with dogs. Everytime I see one walking by the parents of the other dog usually hold them back because my excitement comes across as aggresive. Katie tries to say that but people just dont understand. I really need to learn how to show my excitement in a better, less aggresive way. Thats our next project. Other then that I am doing good. Today on our second walk of the day I spent a good five minutes chasing a bug around in the little garden outside of the building. It was very fun, however I am just not coordinated enough to do that so I looked very goofy, and people were stopping to watch me, boy am I cute!

I have to say I think I am missing the store a lot right now because of the lack of dogs that I have to play with here. Hopefully soon people will understand that I am such a good girl and let me say "HI!". Because thats all I really want to do.

This is a picture of me wanting the peanut butter that Katie was eating, unfortunately even with this adorable face I still got none........

GOOD NIGHT!

Another great one! I did really good on my morning walk, no problems with dogs or joggers! I was at home again today while Katie went to work and did really well! Then when she came home I got to see Bart and Paul. I was more excited about Paul then I was Bart but still it was very exciting. We played for a little bit and then they left.

We then went on our second walk of the day and again I did extremely well! I passed three bikers and two joggers without even a flinch! However when we were on our way back to the apartment we passed a Husky and for some reason I started to have a fit, and was trying to bark at him but Katie told me to "leave it" and I decided to walk away, still a little concerned. We made it the rest of the way home with no problems, and now I am going to go to bed and not wake up for a long time.

Like I have said before, being good is extemely difficult, but well worth it!!

This picture is of what Katie calls my "Dinosaur Pose!" ENJOY!

Good Night!

Another Great day! We went for our usual morning walk before Katie went to work, and I slept all day. For some reason I have started to sleep in the bathroom, I dont know why but its my new favorite place. It takes me a little longer to meet Katie at the door when she comes home now, because I am sound asleep in there. Who knows.

Today when she came home we went for our normal walk around the neighborhood and then returned home. Only this time we got to go for another one!!! I was so excited. This time I got to use my "Heeler" leash which meant this walk was going to be special. And boy was it ever!!! We got to jog today!!! I was soo good too! Except for when we saw a dog then the jogging didnt work so well. Hopefully we will try that again. I did still get to be let off at the gate which meant we ran to the door. I love doing that!!! All in all it was another good day. This looks like it is going to last for a while!! Wish me luck with this jogging thing. I love to run!

Good Night!

2007-07-13T19:13:00.000-07:00

Today was good. We got to go to the park again when Katie got home and I was doing really good until I saw someone jogging with their dog. I don't understand why I hate that so much but I do. It drives me crazy!!! And it makes the rest of the walk go wrong too! Hopefully we can work on that, because the bike and jogging issue is getting a little better everyday. Hopefully I can get it down to at least one issue at a time, make life a little easier, but all in all I am doing better.

At least I am doing ok when she leaves me at home all day. No more ripping up the door frame, and now I know she is coming back so I dont try to go with her. Although I still give her my sad face as she is leaving, but someday hopefully that will end too!

Well I am going to sleep, I had a long walk and am now exhausted!

GOOD NIGHT!

July.12.2007

2007-07-12T19:36:00.000-07:00

I am still doing really good! This morning we went to the park for the first time in about two weeks and I was excellent. I walked by the dog park without even asecond glance at the dogs barking at me. A big step up from the last time we were there. I am still working on bikers and joggers. We have now started to stop and sit when one is coming our way, however its the people who sneak up behind me that are still the problem. Even with that I am doing ten million times better then when I first came here.

I am also getting used to Katie being gone, and although it took me a while I have realized that she is always going to come home after she leaves. Which means I no longer stick my nose in the door as she is walking out and I have started to not even get up when she leaves anymore. This is a major step and hopefully this is only the begining.

I do want to say how much I miss being in the store and how much I miss playing with all my friends from the store. However I am doing very good here, and I know that I am loved by a lot of people, which is helping me get better and to be more friendly towards people and their pets!

GOOD NIGHT!

Today was another GREAT day! It was the second day for Katie being in school and I did sooo good. We did our normal morning walk, and then the second one in the afternoon. But for this walk we went a different route! It was soo much fun!

THEN, just before she came home tonight the apartment lost power, AGAIN! So when she came home we went for a walk and I could tell she was very upset so I was being extra protective and extra snuggly when we came home. I am so helpful. We then got to go down to the basement again. Which is my favorite place in the world!!! I almost jump down the stairs trying to get down there. However this time I tried to leave there just as fast!! The lights were out and it was very very dark and scary. AND Katie made me go into the room first! Not nice and I was not very happy with that decision, which is why I tried to leave so fast. But it was still a blast, I do love going down there!!

Now I am fast asleep and probably will be for the rest of the night, hopefully tomorrow will be another GREAT day!!!

Here's a great photo of me all tangled up with myself!!!

GOOD NIGHT

I am doing soo much better then when I first moved here! I haven't been to the beach in a while because of the heat, I get tired really fast but I am doing really good on our neighborhood walks. I have started ignoring (almost) all the joggers and bikers that pass us, which was my main problem before. I am also doing extremely well with dogs, I stop say "Hi!" and keep walking.

I am doing surprisingly well at home by myself. I pretty much sleep all day long, which is one of my favorite things to do!!! And when I am not sleeping I am chewing on my bully sticks! Hopefully this is the new me and this happy, care-free attitude will last for a while, because everyone loves me more when I am like this, especially the people who think I am sooo pretty on my walks!

Here's a picture of me all snuggly!!

GOOD NIGHT!

Yesterday I did soooo good. It was my first day home alone all day because Katie went back to school. We went for a nice longer then usual walk in the morning and then returned home where I was given my bully stick while she left. She came back a couple hours later and we got to go for another walk, which I was very excited about. However it was pretty hot outside so I didnt want to go far. We then went back and had some lunch. This is when she left AGAIN, which I was a little sad about, but I lived. I slept all day and watched some T.V. (because she left it on for me). I was very excited when she came home because there was a storm going through that I was very concerned about, but we went for our third walk anyway. And I did so well, I even ignored a jogger that went by us!! It was very exciting! I then went home and passed out under the covers for the rest of the night. Being a good girl is extemely hard work!!!!
We are both soo glad that I am doing so well!
Hopefully this will last for a while!
Have a good day!

Today was such an AMAZING day for me!!!!!! On our walk this morning it was pretty hot outside so I didnt want to go far. But when Katie came home we went on another walk and I was such a good girl! Before leaving for some reason I decided to bring along my bully stick, I have never done this before but oh well. I carried it with me the entire walk too!

When we were on our way back a group of people started to talk to me and tell me how pretty I was. I let them. Then they came out of the car to pet me and say what a good girl I was. I highly enjoyed this and did very good. When we were leaving a Schnauzer walked by who was very angry and I completely ignored him, because I am such a good girl!

Then when we got inside the gate to the apartment building I met Raw. And completely ignored him and his eagerness to smell me. Dad was holding him back and I just ignored him and walked into the building. I then ran up the four flights of stairs unleashed without stopping at every door!!

I hope more days can be this good, because I get lots of attention when I am such a good girl!!!

Wish me luck tomorrow when Katie goes back to school all day!

The picture attatched is of me carrying my bully stick down the street.

HAVE A GOOD NIGHT!!

HI! Today was just an okay day. This morning on our walk I was still freaked out about the joggers. I dont know why because I was great other then that. While Katie was gone I did not do any more damage to the door frame, thank goodness. We got to go for another walk when she came home and again it was a jogger who made me crazy. I wasn't bad but still not my best behavior. I am doing really well with other dogs though so thats one good thing. I am going to sleep now for the rest of the night and maybe go to the park tomorrow before Katie goes to work! Hopefully tomorrow will be good!

GOOD NIGHT!!

I am updating today's blog because I did something for the first time today that I hope I NEVER do again, and so does Katie. When she came home and after we went for our walk she left again to do laundry. While she was gone I decided maybe I should chew up the board framing the front door, at the time it was a BLAST but I realized later that maybe that isnt such a good idea. Hopefully that was a one time incident that will never happen again. Anyways just thought I would share, oh yeah and there is a pic accompanying this of my beautiful work. ENJOY.

KATIE LOVES ME RIGHT NOW!

GOOD NIGHT!

Yesterday was an....interesting..day. It started with the electrician coming to fix everything in the apartment. I was fine with him until he went to run down to his van and thats when I decided to bite him in the ankle...needless to say he wasn't happy and I was locked in the bathroom while he was here. I HATED it and whined at the door the entire time, but no one seemed to care.

Then when Katie came home from work I got to see Paul again!!! And he brought Bart and Pickles, which I was a little confused about but excited that I got to play with dogs again!! We hung out for a couple hours and played and got all the excitement out of my system!!

After they left, I slept and slept and slept some more. I was sooo exhausted!! But it was exciting. Hopefully today will be just as good!!

The picture above is my happy face!!!!!

HAVE A GOOD DAY!!!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

I hate fireworks. They scare me half to death. Last night I slept under the bed because they were soooo loud.

Today was a good day though. I got to go for a total of FOUR walks!! And spent the entire day with Katie at home! I also got to see Paul which I was incredibly excited about, and I got to ride in the car too!! After he droppped us back off at home I sat in front of the door waiting for him to come back until Katie finally took me for another walk. We went down to the lake but there were way too many people so we didn't stay long. Even though I did fine with the people.

Later tonight we lost power, again, and we had to go to the basement again. There were beatles the size of cats and I tried my hardest to stay away. Then Katie forced me to go into the basement first and I did not want to, but it was ok, only after we left though!

I am now going to brace myself for another night of loud noises and bright flashes, I hope it won't last long.

The picture above is of me looking my best!! Aren't I beautiful!

GOOD NIGHT!

Today was another good day. I am doing extremely better this week then I have since I moved here. We went for our normal walks today and I had absolutely no problems.
I am now however very concerned with the extremely loud noises coming from outside. I hope they stop soon because that are making me very nervous. I dont know why but I dont like em.
Hopefully I will be able to sleep at least a little bit tonight, even with these loud bangs.

GOOD NIGHT!
I hope.

I had a good day today. I got to go to the store and hang out FOREVER. I was extemely bored and confused what was going on, but I liked being out of the house!!

When we got home we went for another nice long walk by the lake, and I was SOOO good. The only problems I had were because the other dogs weren't nice. I WAS though!!!! Not much else to say about the day except for that I am exhausted and am now going to sleep forever. It was long day in the store for me!

This picture is of my cute back feet!!!!!!!!

GOOD NIGHT.

2007-07-01T19:19:00.000-07:00

I WAS EXCELLENT TODAY!!!!!!! And I mean it, I even wrote it in capitals. Fisrt off this morning we walked around the neighborhood again. I saw a total of three dogs, one of them being a puppy, and I did fine. I wanted to play with the puppy so we did for a while, and then I got bored and left. After my excellent walk we went home and Katie left for work.

I did fine all day by myself, just slept.

And when Katie got home we tried going to the park again!! I was soooooooooo good. So we walked all the way to the lake and down the path along the lake and back. I passed tons of dogs and joggers and bikers and ignored every single one of them!! Our walk ended up being an hour and a half long because I was doing so so well!!! When we got home I got to go take the garbage out with Katie which is my favorite activity.

I am now going to go to sleep and sleep for the next week. I am soo exhausted. Hopefully tomorrow will be as good as today was!! I am improving and loving it!

GOOD NIGHT!

2007-06-30T20:20:00.001-07:00

Today was an excellent day!!! I walked this morning with absolutely no problems. I am not allowed to go to the beach yet because of my previous issues. So we are walking around the neighborhood instead which is just as great. I get to see lots of people running and walking dogs and I am doing fine.

I sat at home all afternoon by myself with no problems either, I am no longer taking Katie's bribes to distract me when she leaves, but am eating them after she leaves instead.

When she got home today we went for our normal walk through the neighborhood and I did GREAT. I didn't pull and ignored most everyone, there were a couple of dogs but they were barking so I kept walking. The only problems I had today were the peopl next door moving out, I wanted to rip their faces off, but luckily all I could do was sit by the door and bark, until I was distracted with "Find Me".

Right now I am going to go to sleep for the rest of the night! Being a good girl is exhausting!!

GOOD NIGHT!

2007-06-29T20:57:00.000-07:00

Today was an okay day. I did a lot better then I did yesterday! Which is always a bonus. I sat at home all day long by myself and had no problems. Then when Katie came home I was able to go for a much needed walk. We started around the neighborhood and I saw a rabbit!!! I wanted to get it soo bad but unfortunetly I am too big to fit through the gates here. So instead I sat and stared at where the bunny WAS for about ten minutes before I decided to keep on walking. Since I was doing such a good job we decided to go towards the beach, I was soooo excited. Until we got to the stop light right across from the tunnel and I decided that I wanted to see "hi" to the jogger who jogged past. Because of this little hello we turned around and headed back home. But that wasnt the end of my day. I also got to see Paul and Kevin today! I was soooooooo happy to see them, I even had to be pulled all the way back home. And then when I returned I was in such a playful and happy mood. That was my favorite part of the day, even better then the rabbit!!!! So hopefully tomorrow will be just as good as today if not better!

GOOD NIGHT!!!

2007-06-28T20:03:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was a good day for me nothing exciting happened, thats why there wasnt a blog. Today however was a different story. I was crankier today then I have been since I moved in here. This morning we walked all the way to the lake again, and on the way I was very good. Today I decided I didnt like waves and watched them and wanted to attack them more then anything! While walking back was when the trouble started. I first tried to get a lab, I didnt like him or his owner. But Katie distracted me with find it until we were able to get farther away. I walked ok for a little while but then wanted to bite the leg off of a runner going by, I DO NOT like runners. Katie then made me walk right next to her for the rest of the time, which made me calm down a little and we were able to make it back home with no problems.

I was given Rita again because Katie was leaving for work and that distracted me long enough for her to leave, I didnt even notice.

Whens she finally got home I got to go out again, however we made it to the end of the walk way and started barking at a dog, so as we let them pass I did watch me very well. We moved over to the patch of grass next to our house so I could go potty, and I heard a dog bark as a runner went by and went crazy and started to pull extremely hard. This is when our walk ended, hopefully I will do better tomorrow so I can go for a longer walk, maybe we will try the other leash so I cant pull so much and so I am closer and not able to pull.

I know I am not perfect but sooner or later with enough patience I will be better.

Good Night and I wish me luck....again!

June.26.2007

2007-06-26T18:44:00.000-07:00

Today wasn't such a good day for. I dont know why but I was extra cranky. This morning we walked around the block and I did ok but not excellent. I was pulling really bad and not focusing on what I needed to be focusing on. So when Katie got home after me being good all alone all day, we went for another walk around the neighborhood, deciding maybe it was a bad idea to go down to the beach. The entire walk I was choking and trying to get closer to people and dogs, the only thing that distracted me was the Find It Game....I love that game! Even though this helped the walk was still shorter then normal because there were a lot of people out and I was having some major issues. I am now extremely concerned about what is outside my door, but am going to go to sleep now instead of worrying. Hopefully tomorrow will be better! Wish me luck!

Good Night!

Today was a blast!!! I went for a walk around the neighborhood, things have quieted down a lot. Later in the afternoon we went down to the beach I was walking really good, so we went into the park. I was having a blast rolling in the sand and wading through the water. I was getting FILTHY. And then I got a DEAD FISH. I pulled it out of the water, put in on the sand, and started to roll all over it. It was a blast!! Then for some reason we left very abruplty and I had to be showered off in the bath tub. I dont know why. AND THEN Paul and Kevin came and got us and I got to go back to the store. At the store I was thrown in a tub and washed twice. All that hard work to get dirty was gone down the drain, literally. I played a little with Pickles but overall was a little confused why we were there. We drove back to my apartment and I have been alseep ever since. I had a busy day full of smelly fish and baths, but overall it was a GREAT day.

Good Evening all. Today I did a really good job at staying home and sleeping during the madness going on outside. I got to go for TWO walks this evening too!!!The first one we went to the harbor again and I did really good, I walked all the way there and back without a problem or a concern towards anyone around me. I am such a good girl. Since I was soo good I got to go for ANOTHER walk a couple hours later. And this time we went all the way to the lake! We stopped by the park first and I was able to run around with another dog. We then decided to leave and go to the lake for the first time. I got to see a bundle of raccoons hanging out in the woods at least ten. And I wanted to eat them but then decided to keep on walking! We sat by the lake for a while until I got too restless and we decided to head back home. I was very good on the way home too! A couple stopped to say how cute I was and I could really care less, there were more important things going in the world then that.
I then proceeded home and stopped to smell all the trash covering the streets. I got hosed down in the shower dried off and now I am going to be sound asleep until tomorrow!!

Good Night!

Today was another great day. It was the first day that I have been home alone all day and I had no problems. I slept all day long and didn't even put a dent in the bully stick I got this morning. So far no problem with bothering the neighbors! Thats a GREAT thing. Even though there have been a lot of people being very noisy outside and the windows have been open I am am still doing good. We walked to the boats again and everything was fine. I saw the man running with his dog again and had a bit of a panic attack, however afterwords I was fine. Although someone did stop to admire my beauty and I wasnt very nice to him, I dont know why but I didn't like him very much. I also completely ignored another person who wanted to see me, oh well. I am now going to sleep forever because tomorrow should be an interesting day with lots of people sorrounding the apartment. Wish me luck!

Today was another good day for me in the begining. I went for a new walk this morning, walking through the neighborhoods and had a nice long walk with no problems, there werent very many other activities going on that may have been why.

I then got to hang out at home for the rest of the day and sleep all day long, thats all I seem to do nowadays.

When Katie came home we went for our normal walk down to the boats, I was very excited. We walked down on the walkway, which was going very well until I saw a man jogging WITH his dog, I could not believe it, two things I LOVE together, I tried sooooo hard to catch up with them to say "hi", but couldn't make it, so I kept walking. We then went to the beach and I was fine until another dog came in and stayed on leash and far away from me, I just wanted to say hi but her mom would not let me so we left the dog beach. While leaving the dog beach I saw the man running with the dog AGAIN and this is when I went crazy, I was trying to bark and catch their attention but it wasnt working, this is when we decided it was time to go home. While walking home there are many things I tried to eat so I will just list them, it will be a bit easier: another dog walking by in the tunnel, two buses, a cab, a stroller, a child being held by his parents, and a couple trying to go home. Luckily Katie was holding me close enough that nothing really happened, but I still wanted to eat them.

When I got home I tried my hardest to go into the first door, rather then walking up four flights, I hate those. When I got home I was in a playful mood, for the first time since being here, and we restled for a little bit. I am now exhausted and am going to sleep forever and ever.

Good Night.

Today was a GREAT day! This morning I woke up at about 11 am and ate breakfast before my walk. I got to walk down to the boats again today and I was soo good. I decided to love everyone because it was such a beautiful day out. I walked by the dog beach while another dog sat and barked at me with no problems. Crazy. So we decided to walk farther then normal, because I was doing soo good. And then I made it all the way home without a problem.

So when I got home I was introduced to Rita!!!! My food filled ball, it was amazing and lasted a whole 5 minutes!!! I love Rita!!

I sat at home while Katie went to work and listened to the country music station on the TV. and let me tell you I love it! :)

When she returned home we went for another walk down to the boats. However this time I was a little more fiesty then before. I got to the boats alright but this is when I decided that I didn't like people, just in general no one specific. I tried to run next to one but was not allowed and then turned around to go back home. While walking back a woman ran past us from behind and I was about to tear her apart because she scared but then decided that that probably wasn't a good idea.

I am now back home and after staring down Katie while she ate dinner I am now sleeping soundly on the floor, probably where I will remain until tomorrow's adventures!

P.S. The picture above is of me at the park!!!

Good Night

Today, Wednesday June 20, I got to help install the cable into my new home. At first when the tall Comcast man came into my apartment, I really wanted to rip his face off. But my better judgement told me to wait and see what was going on first. He kept going in and out of the back door which had me really concerned, until I got distracted by treats and more treats. Side note...I love treats. He then proceeded to pull this long white cord through my bedroom where he began to hook it onto the tv. This is when I decided to help, I sat right behind this tall man and watched, making sure he got everything right. Without me he would have been very confused, its a good thing I was there to help.

Later in the day I was rudely awaken by the noise of my leash rattling which meant it was time for my walk! Today we walked down to the boats again, I love walking down to the boats, there are tons of things to look at and chase! Today I decided that I didnt like rolling luggage. A woman walking in front of me had a large red rolling bag and I really wanted to rip it apart, but by Katie's better judgement decided against that. I got to meet a very pretty Golden Retriever but was very quickly distracted by a bug and left her. When we proceeded down the tunnel under the road I tried to push a large man off his bike, I hate things on wheels it's unnatural. I then decided that I just didnt like anything today and tried to jump on a woman running down the sidewalk. This is when Katie decided maybe it was a good idea not to do that and so did I. We sat in the grass for a while and I calmly watched wheels and runners go by me, realizing maybe they werent so bad. After watching all this I decided I was done and headed back home. I ignored everyone on the way home because I was so exhausted.

I am now going to sleep all night long until tomorrow when I can do it all over again. Good Night.
