Whose Mom is That, Guys?
We're sorta regulars at our doggie daycare, Bow Wow Resort. I know; I know. It sounds like a preschool for Chihuahuas, right? Trust me, there are plenty of us big boys here too. My friends Zeus and Bentley are Great Danes. They make me look like a miniature pup. (That's me on the right and Zeus on the left; he's just a little bit bigger than me, huh?) Imagine that! I'm a 70 pounder, but these guys are about 175. They put the "big" in Big Boy.
Mom's gone on a trip and Xena, Oliver and I are here to play. We have a cool room for sleeping, an indoor play area for the little guys that can't handle the sunshine (I think Xena is in that category sometimes. She's a golden oldie!).
My favorite is the splash pool and the misters that keep us cool all around the play yard. We have shade sails and walls to jump on, toys to play with, and a long run out back for us guys that like to race.
No rush coming home, Mom. All Things Dog Blog is on auto-pilot. We miss you, but we're having fun. Take your time.

I'm four years old today. Seems like just yesterday I was born. We're having a big party today and doing ALL my favorite things. You can see my picture with my girl, Toni, if you go to All Things Dog Blog. We look so cute in our matching party hats.
I gotta go now. Mom's bringing out some of the yummies we made for the party. I don't want Oliver and Xena beating me to the yummies. First up are Pupsicles. Then we get ground beef medallions.
I played fetch and went swimming earlier. Oh, and don't forget the dog park. It was fun playing with Midas, Marmaduke, Bear, and lots of my other buddies. I'm gonna sleep good tonight. Ahhhh.

I'm a friendly guy, so I make lots of friends. Occasionally my mom arranges for me and a friend to get together for a play date. She says it's nice for them to have some time to run errands, or work; but the bestest part is that I get to have some fun with a friend.
The moms always make sure we walk together before we go into the house. All the toys are put away and the rules are set. No food (I'm not sure why, but they said something about preventing food aggression) is a yucky rule, but my mom always brings a special treat for me when I get picked up. What a fun way for mom to get some free time. It's pawsome!
