SUPERDOG!!

My owner thought it would be 'cute' if we dressed up for Halloween.  So far my costume consists of a cape and a big S.  I am SUPERDOG. Makes me feel like a superhero!

Kristen is still trying to decide to be superwoman or batwoman... We still have a bit of time left, but what we do know no matter what, is I'll be the star of the show!

Walk to Defeat ALS

Last Saturday I went on a Walk to Defeat ALS with my owner Kristen.  There were so many people there it was kind of overwhelming, but I had a great time.  The only downfall is that she dressed me up in a T-shirt and put a red bandanna around my neck... Yet, to be honest it wasn't so bad, and we also raised $310 for a great cause!

 Woof. 

To Grandmothers house we go...

I am at Grandmas house for the weekend.  I love it here, I get to run and play, step-grandpa gives me fresh off the bone trapping meat and some scraps from the butcher shop.  I have 3 other dogs I get to run around with and chase, and the best part is my owner doesn't have class or work to take her away from me.

Today we went over to my aunts house and played with her son Dean.  He even took me on a walk.... or well I guess you could say that I took him. They even have a cat that I chased around the house until Kristen eventually locked her up....

Gotta make the most of grandmas while I can were heading back to Minnesota tomorrow!

Shit.... literally.

Today I was stuck at home again while Kristen went to work.  It gets so boring when she is gone and I just miss her so much that I decide to take matters into my own hands and show her how much I hate when she leaves me.  So my decision was to take a shit in her carpeted room and make sure it wasn't just one pile, no. I made damn sure that it got all over her shorts and her hair brush.

Needless to say she wasn't too happy when she got home.
-Spent a good part of the day scrubbing the carpets.
(but she still took me to the dog park!)

P.s. She's gonna need a new hairbrush!

xx Bravo.

Free at last... Almost.

I went to the dog park today and Kristen finally let me off the leash and let me play with the other dogs.  There is one little catch though... she made me wear that stupid muzzle. I'm sure all the other dogs were laughing at me because they didn't need to wear one of those itchy things.  But hey, at least there is a little more trust going through this relationship.

She left me twice today for hours at a time. In between her shifts at work is when she took me to the dog park but she took me for a walk before and after each of her shifts.  I love going on walks with her and it kills me when she is gone, that is why I tend to tackle her when she comes home because I miss her so much. I was a good boy today though. I kept the room nice and tidy and only whined at first when she left only enough to wake her roommate up. (I don't know if he was too happy with that) but it did make me feel a little better knowing that I wasn't home all alone.

Cheer to another day.
xoxo Bravo.

So Lonely.

Yesterday was the first time that my owner left me all by my own and she locked me in the basement. Don't get me wrong that was probably the best place for me to go considering it gets pretty hot upstairs in our room. The basement is pretty big and nice.. but I chose to stay up the stairs right by the door every minute until she returned to me.  I howled and howled until she came back.  I just don't like to be left alone.  

I am nervous for when she goes back to school and has work as well because she won't have as much time for me.  But hopefully by then I will have learned to be a good dog and behave like I always do when she is around.  The thing I need to learn the most is that I can be left on my own and everything will be okay.  But that will take time and I just hope time is what I have because if not she might be forced to get rid of me, and honestly I have nowhere else to go and I don't think I will be able to bond with someone the way I have with her! 

xoxo Bravo. 

Dog Park.

I went to a dog park today! It was a great park with lots of room and lots of other dogs... the only problem is that I was the ONLY dog that had to stay on the leash.  All of the other dogs no matter how big or small were able to run free without their owners connected to them the whole time. 

I mean I guess I am a little different than the other dogs. I am not as playful as them and tend to growl at them and snap when the other dogs run up to me to play with me.  I just don't like them all up in my face and I would rather play with my owner then some slobbering dog. If dogs are less energetic then I am really good with them and just like to sniff their butts. Maybe as time goes on I will get used to the other dogs and be less aggressive and maybe eventually she will let me run free without being restrained. But for now I think I am stuck being that outcast that can't be trusted running around on my own! 

New home... new territory. (Where to lift my leg)

I just moved to a new home in city called St. Cloud, MN. I was recently a service dog for a woman with epilepsy but I made some mistakes as all dogs do and bit a guy (well deserving of course) and she put an add up on craigslist stating if someone didn't take me by morning she would put me down. 

My new owner Kristen saved my life. She saw the ad and came first thing in the morning. I was a little wary at first, but I soon found out that she was the one that I belonged with. We had a great ride home filled with walks, the pet store, dog parks, and lots of licks and laughs. She then brought me back to her parents house where she stayed with me for the weekend but then had to go back to St. Cloud and find a new place to live where she could have me, because at her current place of residence she couldn't. 

I did get in some mischief at the parents, and they found out I am TERRIFIED of storms, loud noises, big trucks and the dark. Oh and being left alone. I like being with Kristen at all times, I howled all the time when she left me, but now that I have her back I am not letting her out of my sight.  Yesterday she came and got me and we are now happily living in St. Cloud in a house where they also have a doberman names Jackson and his master named Jeff. 

I don't like the doberman too much. He keeps trying to jump around me and play with me. It doesn't faze me I just bare my teeth and go on with my day. (My mother doesn't like my growling too much at Jackson though)
We went on a 3 hour walk/ run yesterday just meeting all of her friends and her showing me around.  Let me just say I definitely could out run her if I needed too... but I stay good on the leash right next to her and tolerate her out-of-shape slow pace, but hey, at least she can run that's more than I can say for my last owner. I guess we will have to see what today will bring. Hopefully some more wags, runs, and definitely more slobber!
