Cisco's story

Friends,

Let's all visit Sam to know about Cisco's story.

Cisco is sick right now and we need to put our paws together for her and her hoomans!

No words needed.

Molly Mutt duvets

This is such a good idea, recycling old clothes and stuff!

Check out www.mollymutt.com, just read about it in Dogster.

(I'll keep doing this cute face, maybe Carla will buy me a new bed to chew... ermmm... cof cof cof... to sleep... cof cof cof...)

Hooman!!!!

Could you please pay attention to ME!?!?!?!

John's Birthday

Dear friends... it has been ages since my last post!

I'm soooo sorry for not being able to catch up, as much as I wanted, with all your news and adventures. I will do my best to restore my blogging activity! :)

Today it's John's birthday and, because he's been assigned to a mission abroad, he is not home.

I miss him a lot - his cuddles are the best - so I've asked Carla to take some pictures of me looking goofy, as a way of barking him a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I MISS YOU, "Hooman"-John!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :)

My III Golden Sunday

My dear friends... here am I! Late and sorry for not been following your adventures as I'd like to! My hoomans keep working a lot but they manage to go with me to the beach at the end of the day! So, here are some photos of one of those lovely sunsets: the one I went to my III Golden Sunday, with my beaaaauuuuuutiful friens Pu and Timon! . :)

I'll be posting on your blogs during this week, ok? I'm anxious to keep up with all your adventures.

Having fun in my neighborhood garden

Sweet friends, alooooha!

I'm so sorry for my absence... You already know the reason: yeap, my hooman's stupid work. I keep barking them that I want to know that work person, 'cause I really have a few things to bark at him/her.

Well, anyway, here I am to tell you a bit about my everyday-afternoon-walks in my neighborhood garden. This is one of my favourite places in the world, 'cause I always go there to play with my hoomans.

There's a place there where there are lots of little stones and I always go there and steal some to play... :) I love rocks. Rocks rock (BOL)! :)

Tagging games and hooman grooviness

Aloha, furry-and-not-so-furry-friends!

Wow, I have to catch up! Let's see...

I've been tagged to the same game by boootiful Honey and by (my) Hero :). Well, the rules are a bit different, but the main ones are:

- Open the folder that contains Pet photos or the 6th photo of the 6th folder

- Select any photo in that folder that you haven’t posted previously or pick the 6th of the 6th :)

- Post that photo along with the story behind it on your blog.

- Then, tag 5 friends.
Well, I chose the 6th of the 6th, 'cause I don't exactly have a Pet Photos folder... Actually, our computers in the house are completely full of Pipa's photos... BOL.
Here it goes:

The story of this picture? It's just me being happy at the beach. Water, a ball to retrieve, what can I say... this was taken last winter, I posted a few pictures about it. :)

I've been away for a while, I lost myself a bit with the tagging games and with who-played-what, so.... I'm tagging everyone who never played this funny game before and wants to do it!

And I'm doing the same with my next game! Thanks to Michelle and Titus, her bootiful current foster, at Dog By Nature for giving us the Honest Scrap award! The instructions are to link back to the person who gave us this award, share 10 things about myself that are true, and pass it along to 10 more bloggers. So, if anyone want to play this game, consider yourselves tagged! :)

5 things about me:

- EVERY SINGLE TIME my hoomans (or any visit) arrive at the house, I have this funny ritual, like I said above: I start waging my tail, I grab something in my mouth and I start making funny noises, moaning of joy! It's really funny.

- I simply love the water, I'm the true beach babe. I even jump over the waves to get in! :)

- If I want to chew something, I have to do it OVER my hoomans feet.

- I get crazy around other dogs, 'cause I'm always in the mood to play, but around kids and babies I sit really still and I just love when they pet me.

- This one is very unusual: sometimes, in my last walk of the day, if I'm sleepy when my hoomans grab the harness and leash... I just lay down on the ground and don't move an inch. So, there they are, door open to go out, "C'mon Pipa, let's go, let's go for a walk, c'mon", and there I am, head down on the floor, pretending I'm not listening at all... :)

5 things about Carla

- She loves to swim.

- She loves to talk (sometimes, I even fall asleep).

- She loves babies.

- Sometimes she falls asleep petting me.

- She ALWAYS sings in the shower, it's irritating. So sometimes she sings and I moan. BOL

*************

Now, another HGP (Hoomans Grooviness Proof). It's against Carla, as usual, and her annoying habit of taking pictures of me all the time.

When she gave me this green toy (she's always buying me toYs) - it's a retrieving toy for the beach - the first thing I did was snif it a bit. Then, I started my "new toy/sock/thing to grab" routine: waging my tail, making funny noises and walking aroun my hoomans. And then, 3 minutes later or so (not more) I just laid down with my new toy like this, preparing myself for a nap. I just don't understand what's so special about my sleeping positions.

3 days at Algarve

Alooooha super-duper-friends!

First of all, I'm so sorry. Once again, due to my never-ending hoomans grooviness, I'm so late in visiting your blogs. Always that same old excuse: work. What's that work stuff, anyway? Geee. Well, I'll do my best to visit you today and tomorrow.

I spent 3 days at Algarve last weekend, with my hoomans and Carla's parents. Only 3 days, but we had so much fun at the beach!!! Check out the pics!

I'll be coming back soon with more news, ok? I miss you all!

Hello furry and not-so-furry friends!

:)

Did I ever tell you that we have the most amazing sunsets here in Portugal, specially during summer??? Lately I've been doing my afternoon walks in a park nearby, wich is amazing! We go there to run and to walk really fast. After my hoomans exercise, I get to do a lot of snifing and a lot of rolling in the grass. Did you know that rolling in the grass is good for your skin? You should all try it. Specially the hoomans. :)

Could we please stop this walking-running stupid activity and just roll in the grass?

This is Carla trying to convince herself that she managed to convince me to walk nicely in a leash. 10 seconds later, of course, the leash flew away from her finger, 'cause I saw a little birdie and ran away.

That's it. I'm stopping right here and I'll act depressed. It usually works.

Of course that my hoomans thought I was thirsty and they gave me water and washed my face to refresh me. Dumb hoomans.

Anyway, my depressed (and now wet) face worked (weak hoomans)!! Time to do a sniffing-patrol.

Resting, at last.

Look at those beautiful duckies, over there. I wish I could run after them.

This one of the park lakes. Can you see all the duckies in the water?

I think I'll have a salad now.

Amazing sunset!

Look at me all pooped out at home... I was so tired that I forgot to put my head down!
