Whoa, I've been busy

I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to update. I have a funny Hide and Seek story to tell but it'll have to wait until tomorrow because my funny pics need to get put on the computer :o) you'll get a kick out of it.

This weekend was pretty busy for us. Saturday mommy#1 and dad went to and Oyster thing...YUCK..in Tomales Bay and I was left at home :o( the organizer said I wasn't allowed..how rude. When my parents got there they noticed a few dogs and a sign that said "Keep all dogs on leash".....WHAT, I could have gone *sigh*. They were pretty bummed about it but the decided that Sunday was my day since they had to leave me at home alone on Saturday. Sunday dad had Kali so mommy and I drove out to Oakland at noon to meet him so we could go to the dog park in Alameda. On our way over we stopped at Nitro Dog in Lafayette to get me a new car seat....HUH...a car seat? I like riding on my mommies lap. I was not happy at all to find out that I now have to ride in a car seat with my seat belt on. I have to admit though I got spoiled and my new car seat is very pretty and very comfy. It also has a drawer hidden under the cover for all my toys, leash and goodies. It's also tall enough for me to look out the window.

Here is a pic of me in it, I wasn't too happy here though.

So off we went in the car with me in the new car seat. Of course I barked the whole way too Oakland, only cause I'm spoiled but I think I'll get used to it. We picked up daddy and headed to Alameda. Mommy and Daddy were hungry so they figured they'd have a picnic at the park while I played. Little did they know that was a bad idea. We arrived at the Alameda Park and it wasn't pretty like the one in Dublin but there were little dogs there and it looked like it might be fun. IT WASN'T. We walked in and there were some icky yucky aggresive dogs there. The place was gross and there was poop everywhere that other dog parents hadn't picked up. I'm spoiled and if you know my mom then you know she's super clean and neat. She didn't like this place but she figured we were here and I should play for a bit. Mommy and daddy tried to eat but all the icky dogs begged for their food, one dog even jumped on the table. Actually two dogs jumped on the table so they had to put their food away. I strolled off to check out the grounds and all of a sudden some dog comes after me and latches on to my neck...OUCHIE....and tries to throw me around. That didn't go over very well with my mommy so she kicked him (lightly) and picked me up. I had doggie drool all over my new shirt and my back. It was time to go. We are never going back there again. I know the Dublin Park is new but geesh this place was GROSS. We then headed off to the beach in Alameda where we just walked for a bit, my daddy finished his sandwich while I played in the sand and then we watched the kite surfers. Well my mommy and daddy watched the surfers while I ate grass. Later on our way home I decided to throw up a big chunck of grass in the car on my daddy's sweater....OOPS. Hey at least I didn't get my new car seat dirty. I would have been in BIG trouble. I was dirty from the dog park and stunk from the icky slobber on me so we went home and gave me a bath, I smelled pretty and was all soft after my bath. It was a long day so I took a nap in the bed with Pooh Bear.

For some reason pics don't want to upload so I'll try again tomorrow because there are some silly one of me from the weekend.

I am a crazy dog

As part of my, I NEED SOME ATTENTION PLEASE, things that I do the last few weeks I've torn my play pen upside down. I throw my toys all over, for some reason do the same with my doggie litter.....eeewwww, what is wrong with me. I take my bed and throw it around like it's my toy, turn it upside down and then lay on it like some silly dog. You'd think I'd be taking it easy since my teeth are falling out and my gums have been sensitive but nope. I NEED ATTENTION...I'm a pretty funny little guy.

But then there is also the cute, adorable, mellow, loving side of me. I like to cuddle up in my bed under my blankie and relax.

I have a social calendar

As if life isn't hectic enough for my parents, I have now added more social functions to their calendars. This weekend we are going to Animals on Broadway in Walnut Creek and then we are hoping to make it to Dublin for my meetup group so I can get some playing time in. I'll be walking in the parade at Animals on Broadway. I am also hoping they have some cool clothes there for me. Should be fun and hopefully the weather will hold out (it's suppose to rain this weekend, boo, hoo).

Missing Teeth & Floopy Ear

So we couldn't figure out why one of my ears is sticking straight up and the other one is floppy. A few weeks ago the same thing happened but then both my ears were floppy again. Mommy #1 looked around online and she found out that for some reason Chihuahua's ears do funny things when we are teething. She found the following question/answer on a message board. I still look very cute though. I sure hope my ears stay this way or floppy. I like them that way.


My 15 week old chi puppy has one ear sticking up and one flopping down. Is this normal or should they both begin to stick up at the same time?

It's normal. Chihuahua ears are as unique as the dogs themselves, they tend to do what they want for a while until they learn what's acceptable and what isn't. If both ears are up and one or both suddenly droop, that is probably in response to the process of losing baby teeth and the adult teeth coming in. Suddenly one day they're down, and suddenly one day they're up. Once they come back up, they should stay that way.

Patch - Born 11-21-05

I was born November 21, 2005. I have 2 brothers and 1 sister but they went to live somewhere else. My mommy would have jumped off a bridge if she had 4 of me. My mommy #1 and my daddy brought me home on January 16, 2006, I was just 8 weeks old and weighed a little over a pound. I was soo tiny. I am now 6 months old a weigh about 7 or 8lbs, wow I'm a porker :) hee, hee. I am the cutest chihuahua ever, at least that's what my mommies and daddy tell me and everyone else I've meet. I live in Walnut Creek with my mommy #1 and her roommate, mommy #2. I get to visit my daddy on the weekends. I can get pretty crazy and do silly things like run in circles over and over and over around the house. I love spedning time with my mommies, daddy and going to my chihuahua play group once a month. I am VERY SPOILED. I have lots of sweaters and shirts. I look very cute and luckily I don't get dressed in wierd stuff. My mommy #1 usually goes to the doggy store about once a week to buy my yummy treats for the week. I answer to Patch, Pumpkin or Muffin.
