Zoe the Puggle says McCain in '08!

P.S. Please don't be offended by this post.

Wow Its been forever

Mommy hasn't been taking a lot of pictures of me because she is so busy with school.

Mommy and Daddy went to Disney World and I got to stay with grandma, grandpa, uncle toby and the cats! it was so much fun! Mommy and Daddy brought me back a Mickey Mouse shirt. I'll try to get them to take a picture of me in it.

I haven't been up to much lately. I'm now 6 and a half months old. I started Intermediate class at Petsmart with Bailey, Shea, and Bruno. I love my friends.

I was a bad puggle yesterday. When mommy came home from work and heard what I did she was so mad.

I did this to my bed while daddy was in the shower. The little pillow is okay, but I ruined the rest. Mommy even had cleaned the kitchen the day before. She was not happy.

This is how I ride in the car. It keeps me safe.

I love when my grandpa comes to visit. Now my grandma needs to come visit me. I'm super cute. I don't know how she can stay away.

I'm going to miss my bed. RIP.

Love, Zoe

Long time no bark...

2007-12-19T16:19:00.000-05:00

It has been a while. Our family has been really busy. Mommy and daddy got 'gaged or something. I'm not sure what it means, but mommy keeps talking about me wearing a tutu or something.

So I met this guy named Santa Paws. I tried to eat this white thing growing from his face. It didn't taste good.

On to the more important news... I graduated from puppy school. Can you believe it? I still can't do a lot of the "tricks" but I can do the basics (except roll over. I don't like that). I also start intermediate class in January (with all 5 other puppies from my puppy class. I'm so excited to see them!!!)

Oh yeah and I also had to go see Dr. Lindsey on Monday. All I know is daddy dropped me and wally off and I went to sleep. When I woke up, I felt all funny and there was this stich in me! A stich! I felt really funny up until today. Now I'm acting like my crazy little puggle self today.

Playing with Cousin Cinder

2007-11-16T12:21:00.000-05:00

Hi everyone!

2007-11-16T12:08:00.001-05:00

Grandma told me to update so here goes.

Mommy's camera is broken so pictures aren't going to be as frequent.

Cousin Cinder and I have matching sweaters.

I took a nap in an unsafe position.

One of my new t-shirt. This one says "Let it Snow!" and the day after I wore it for the first time, it snowed!!

Daddy and I fell asleep last night watching tv.

Love, Zoe

I've been busy

2007-11-08T14:45:00.000-05:00

Wow. I haven't updated in a week. I've been really busy.

Saturday I went for another hike with mommy and daddy. We went to Penisula and hiked a trail by an old part of the Ohio-Erie canal and stone quarries.

On Monday, Mommy went to a work meeting and forgot to lock the cage (She insists I opened it!). I came running up to her when she got home. I had one little accident and I ate daddy's band posters. Oops!

Monday in puppy class we learned laydown, leave it, take it, and more about walking on a leash! After class, mommy bought be two new toys because I'm so spoiled. She got me a new weenie dog. He's a skeleton. We call him skeleweenie. Then I got a polar bear to go with my walrus.

I've been wearing my green sweater because its been so cold.

Love, Zoe.

I can sit!

2007-11-01T20:24:00.000-04:00

Mommy just learned to upload these. Its dark because she has a bad camera and its kind of hard to hear, but here it is.

Puppy class and new toys!

2007-11-01T20:08:00.000-04:00

So I learned to sit in puppy class on Monday night. I'm great at it. We finally found treats that I will eat.

Mommy also got me a new toy after class on Monday. Its a walrus.

Then yesterday we got a package from the doggy catalog. A new green sweater for me and another new toy. Frankenstein! I think there was some Christmas presents in there for me too.

Me and my best buddy Bruno the Rottie at puppy class.

My favorite part of Frankenstein is his cape.

My 1st hike!

2007-10-29T21:48:00.001-04:00

So I went for my first hike yesterday. We went to the Metroparks in Munroe Falls. It was a 2.2 mile hike through the woods. I loved it. I got to eat sticks and play in the leaves and play with other doggies. Mommy almost didn't make it though. She's pretty out of shape. I want to go again next weekend!

Here I am trying to jump into the yucky lake.

I tried to take this stick with me. It was about 3 times my size. I only pulled on my leash when I was trying to follow people in front of us.
The family.
Mommy and me by the yucky lake.
Daddy and me.
This was about halfway through. Mommy needed a break.
Some lady took this picture for us, but she is a bad picture taker.

I had my 2nd puppy class today. Mommy will post pictures tomorrow.

Love, Zoe

Fun with my aunties and cousin!

2007-10-25T16:11:00.000-04:00

Last night, mommy and daddy took me to grandma's house. I got to play with my aunties and cousin. It was so much fun! I even got to stay there without mommy and daddy for a while.

I picked on Auntie Belle though and she tried to bite me. I got to sleep on the couch with her and Aunt Patti.

I love chasing cousin Cinder, but she cheats and jumps on the couch and I'm too little to jump on it.

Auntie Bailey and I took a nap on the big bed.

Then mommy and daddy took me to Petsmart and got me a fall sweater that I get to wear on thanksgiving!

Auntie Bailey shared her big bed with me. Look at my brand new harness.

Cousin Cinder is such a cheater. I can't reach her on the couch.

This is right before Auntie Belle tried to bite me.

Me in my new sweater. Even daddy likes it (I think because its green and that's his favorite color).
Me and daddy playing.

This is daddy's favorite toy.

Halloween Party

2007-10-24T15:58:00.000-04:00

The Halloween party last night was fun. Unforunately, I didn't win the costume contest. The winner's contest was weird! I had so much fun playing with all of the other dogs especially my new best friend Bailey the puggle from puppy school.

I got my picture taken and I stood all by myself for it without mommy and daddy. Then we bought the Howl-O-Ween frame too bad the picture is too dark.

Then at the end of the party, Mommy's coworker showed up with my first puppy friend Lily. Bailey and I tried to play with her, but she didn't want to play.

Daddy and me. My antennas kept falling down.
Me and Bailey. The lil pig and the bumblebee We wouldn't pose for the camera.Our favorite dog was a French bulldog dressed as a devil.

I started puppy school!

2007-10-23T16:46:00.000-04:00

Last night I started puppy school at Petsmart. There was even another puggle in the class named Bailey. Her mommy and my mommy know each other from Puggle Nation.

My favorite puppy in the class was a Rotteweiler named Bruno. He was 3 times my size, but so cool! I can't wait until next Monday!

Tonight I'm going back to Petsmart for a Halloween party. That means I get to wear my costume. I hope I win a prize!

Here are some recent pictures.

I'm so cute when nap.

My mommy is so silly.

I'm so spoiled. Look at all my toys.

Love, Zoe

Sleepover!

2007-10-18T00:30:00.000-04:00

Last night mommy, daddy, and me spent the night at Grandma and Grandpa's because they were out of town. I had so much fun playing with Auntie Bailey and Auntie Belle. And chasing cousin Cinder around.

Auntie Bailey and Auntie Belle are 100+ pound Old English Sheepdogs/Bernese Mountain dogs. Cousin Cinder is a black lab/cocker spaniel mix. She didn't like me at first, but I'm growing on her. I chase her everywhere and we love running under grandma and grandpa's bed.

On Sunday night I got to play with them too and Uncle Toby! Grandma gave me a new toy that I loooooove.

Here are some pictures.

Here I am snuggling with my Auntie Bailey.

Grandma got me this toy. Its so cool! Here I am playing with my aunties!

I forgot I had this. Oops!

2007-10-12T22:10:00.000-04:00

So I forgot I had this. I'm now almost 2 months old! I'm slowly getting better everything! Mommy and daddy spoil me like crazy.

Here are some pictures showing what I've been doing.

This is me and my first toy.

This time I actually looked at the camera and didn't try to eat it!

This is my mommy Rachael.

This is my daddy Matt.
I nap in funny positions. Daddy is so silly! I love playing with him.

Love, Zoe

Hi I'm Zoe!

2007-09-16T15:52:00.000-04:00

Hi I'm Zoe! This is my first post. My mommy and daddy picked my up last night. They adopted me from a rescue group.

I'm an 8 week old puggle puppy. That means I'm half pug and half beagle.

I'm still really scared, but I'm sure I'll get used to everything very soon.

This is a picture of me and my daddy.

Daddy and mommy gave me my 1st bath today!
