Cami, the Mountain dog??!!

This is me in my special car seat for road trips- it's very comfy & safe.

Okay, you guys probably know about our annual office trip that we take at the end of summer. The whole office goes- Dr. Brenda, Charlene, Mommy (Debbie) and of course, ME. Oh yeah, Daddy came with us- he was the driver, and Dyson (aunt Dr. Brenda’s boy dog) came along, too.

This year we decided to go to western North Carolina, in the Smoky Mountains in September. We rented a dog-friendly cabin (which Mommy told me was like a hotel, but for only us) that was on the side of the mountain. She didn’t tell me that there wasn’t any grass to potty on. That’s right, not just no GOOD grass- NO GRASS. Just gravel and red clay! OMG, where do I go poop?! How is this dog-friendly? This dog likes grass!!!

See- no grass.  If you walk to the left- you fall!!

So, mountain life isn’t really for me, but the cabin was nice and clean. There was a big kitchen, which is important to store and fix my food. Mommy’s the best at that. So I guess it was alright.
Anyway, Mommy and my “aunts” bought back really pretty rocks that are all different smells. Mommy says they’re differnet colors, too, but I can’t tell that. She says that they are things called gems- rubies, sapphires, emeralds, whatever! I say they’re rocks. You can’t eat them, but they would look nice on a new collar or harness for me. Maybe for my birthday….
Daddy caught poison ivy while walking in the woods with Dyson, so he has to have medicine like I do when I get all itchy. Sorry, Daddy- I don’t walk in the woods, so you would have been safer with me.

All-in-all, I suppose we had fun. Dyson thought it was great, but he’s a boy, what does he know? Next trip, I vote for Disney or Miami or somewhere with better grass!

It rained alot!!  Luckily, I was prepared.

Golf Trip!

Hotel beds are the softest!!!

It was Daddy’s birthday, so Mommy & I decided to take Daddy to this place where everyone loves golf. It’s called Champions Gate, it’s near Disney World, and the hotel is called the Omni. Guess what? The hotel is for dogs, too. Sometimes, I don’t get to meet many new friends when we travel, but here there were lots of doggy friends. Everyone was so welcoming, and they had really good grass to potty on (good grass is always a welcome sight).

We woke up early on that Saturday because Daddy had “an early tea time.” I don’t know why, because he doesn’t even like tea. Anyway, he went to play golf, so Mommy and I sat out on the balcony to look at the sky and grass and birds. Next thing I know, these really weird birds came by. Mommy called them hot air balloons. We watched them fly by, and then we went for a walk.

I napped the day away, but when Daddy came back- we all went to Disney for dinner and shopping. We had a great time, and I got some french fries as a treat!

Next month it’s off to the mountains! I’ll keep you posted.

It's so nice to have a balcony, what a view!  Hey, what are those slow, round bird things going by???

Long Time

Thursday, March 25th, 2010

OMG, it’s been forever since I wrote here. Not much going on. Dr. Ernest, Charlene and myself worked at the Renaissance Festval’s Pet Fest (that was quite an experience!). My niece came into town for spring break (with her boyfriend- wasn’t quite sure about that, but it turned out well) so that was fun.
This weekend is the Festa Italiana in Ybor City. My mother, Barbara (our past asst) and myself will be stomping grapes for charity on Sunday. Our charity is the ASPCA- wish us luck and join us if you can. There is lots of food, drink, music and fun!

Cami, an International Super-Model?

Monday, October 5th, 2009

Good job Cami! Dr. Ernest and Charlene entered the dogs in a photo contest for an Australian doggy catalogue, and Cami was chosen to be one of the models. Can you believe this girl, just back from a tragic eye trauma, and now famous?! No autographs- please…

Shelter euthanizes wrong animal

Friday, July 24th, 2009

Did you hear about Hernando County Animal Services mistakingly euthanizing a cat that was there for rabies quarrantine, instead of the one that was brought there for that. The owners of the quarrantined cat came to pick him up, and the shelter people said oops. Apparently, this happens more frequently than we know.
Moral of this story- keep your pets vaccines current!!!
