I haven't updated in awhile, so here are a few things that have happened lately:

Oh boy! My buddy Cheryl came over a few minutes ago. Her mom who's visiting from out of town came with her! I got to sit on her mom's lap & get a nice massage!

Nothing to really report from Thanksgiving. My mom and dad go to Disneyland every year, so I stay home alone with Cosette and Little Guy all day and evening. We had a boring day, but mom and day had fun. My mom had been pretty sick for the past two weeks, but was doing much better by last Thursday.

Little Guy got sick Thanksgiving night. He started coughing and did so most of the night. He went to the vet on Friday and got some medicine. She said he has an upper respiratory infection. He tends to get this once a year or so.

It's pretty cold for Southern California right now. My dad has been putting fires in the fireplace to keep us warm. It's nice and cozy! 

I'm off to find a warm person to snuggle up to!

The Paw

My day started with a bath and lots of grooming....paws trimmed, teeth brushed, etc. Then, my mom and I took a pretty long ride in the car. We stopped in a strange neighborhood so I could walk for awhile. I met some nice kids. 

After the walk, we went to a building where there were lots of nice people. Turns out it was my Delta Society test. Delta Society is a national organization that registers therapy dogs. They were running a bit behind, we waited some and then got started.

I PASSED!  Hopefully this means I'll be going back to work soon. I miss working with the kids at the hospital.

I went to the vet today for a check-up. It was a new location, but a vet I used to see at the old building. I was happy to see her. Well, that is until she did something to me...let's just say I didn't do my "business" this morning, but I needed to have a poop test. 

Anyway, I'm healthy and ready to take my therapy dog test this coming Saturday.

Here's a picture of me resting on my dad's knee!

P.S. I'm not sad in the photo, just relaxed and sleepy. Maybe a little annoyed that my mom had to take 20 pictures of me! 

Another Birthday!

Happy Birthday to Cosette, my big sister, my friend, my mentor, and my protector! She's 12 years old today, but she acts much younger! She is a very smart dog and has taught me lots.

Happy Birthday to my dad! I love snuggling with him. He calls me his "teddy." How sweet is that?

If I do my best puppy dog eyes, do you think I can score some cake?

What's better than snuggling up with a warm human and taking a nap? Not much, I think!
