I started on a mix of Purina One and Innova Puppy from just
Purina One.
1-16-2004
My brand-new crate came in. Why
does it have two doors?

I met my cousins Max, Millie, and Bandit (the super hyper
nut-case).
I visited Petsmart. Everybody told me I was beautiful.

Mommy and Daddy got a new bed, big enough for all three of
us.
2-17-2004
I got in big trouble today because I ate a hole in the new mattress.
I was a bad dog.
2-22-2004
My website went online today.
I weighed 35lbs today.
2-26-2004
For whatever reason, I have been in a really good mood
today.
Daddy made my Doctor's appointment for next Tuesday.
Her name is Dr. Deborah Schaefer. I am suppose to get a
microchip, blood work, spayed, and a new heartworm preventative......
What does Mommy and Daddy mean by "first day at school syndrome?"
2-29-04/3-01-04
I Have been really needing and asking for Mommy and Daddy's
attention for these two days and kind of feeling a little
depressed. I have eaten, been drinking, and have played
just fine....just being a little weird I guess.
3-02-04 (Vet Day)
"I HAVE A MEAN DADDY,
and so far I am not at all impressed with the DOCTOR'S
office." This was how my day started out
anyway.
We got to the Vet's office and went
inside. I was not scared of the Great Dane this time
when I saw one. (I still say it was one of those horse
things.) I met a Chow and she seemed ok. (Needed a
haircut though.) I had to just sit there for
about 30 min's while Daddy filled out papers. Then this
lady tried to get me to leave Daddy.....Yea,
WHATEVER! NOT! I suddenly forgot how
to "heal" and walk with a leash...I fought a
great fight. I was getting the best of her when she
stopped and picked me up. Now this was just not fair!
You just will not believe what happened next, DADDY
LEFT! (Bad Daddy)
Now, given my history up to this point, you must
understand that when my "Daddy" was who came back to
get me, I got so excited that I just let a stream of pee go
that was; well, let's just say MAJOR and my tail was wagging
at about 90 MPH. (Ok, I looked like a shower head
turned upside-down.) Anyway, we got home and I don't
really feel good. I'm not sure this bionic-dog with
computer-chip stuff is all that it is cracked up to be.
I now have to go back for a follow-up visit in ten days
to get my stitches removed.
Oh-by-the-way; I'm suppose to restrict all my
activity for 5 days, we'll see how that goes.
3-06-04 I have so much to tell you!!!!!!!
I just don't know where to begin.
OK, I GOT MY NEW SISTER TODAY! WOW!!
She is great! Mommy and Daddy call her Makensie.
(They spell that kind of funny, huh.) Makensie weighted
41 lbs today and is a rescued Shar Pei. She is
registered under the name Ma-Roo's Krismas Eve and has always
been called Evie, because she was born on Christmas eve
2001. Makensie and Evie sound a lot alike to me.
Ops, so much for 5 days. We played a lot
today and went for a really long walk. Makensie got a
new crate just like mine. She sure does drink a lot of
water too. Makensie had the same surgery and microchip
as I did, but on Monday. (The day before me.)
Daddy and TheStoreShop.com
are going to build her a website like mine soon. ( I'll help
her to make sure it is good like mine.)
3-08-04
Mommy thinks it is funny to turn me upside down and call me
a "Piggy-Bank" doggie.
Makensie and I have to go to the Doctor again on Wednesday
morning. I will get my stitches taken out and other
stuff. Makensie will get a check up and start all of her
shots.
Where is Camping? I don't know where it is,
but I guess we are going there on Thursday and staying till
Sunday. I don't know if they have a computer there so it
may be next week before I can update my diary again....(just
in case)
P.S. Makensie's Web Site goes online tonight, but it
is no-where close to being finished. http://www.Makensie.com
3-10-04
Makensie and I had to go to the Vet today.
Makensie had a full check up, got blood work done, heartworm
medication, her first set of shots, and ear medication.
Makensie weighed 41 lbs. I had to get dipped and I
didn't like this at all. I didn't get my stitches taken
out yet because they want me to wait at least 10 days first,
so Daddy will have to take them out this weekend. Wow,
tomorrow is when we go see this new place called
"Camping."
* Evening note: I
am not feeling very well and Mommy and Daddy are talking about
not going to "Camping" tomorrow, but Dr. Schaffer
said that I should be better by morning and if not, then I
could go get a shot that would fix me.
3-11-04
I'm still not feeling well today but I ate all my
breakfast and kept it all down. Daddy told me it was suppose
to rain all weekend so we may just go to Oklahoma to visit
Nanny and Bill. If the rain moved out in time then we
will take the RV to "Camping" from Nanny's
house. The RV is being stored there since my house doesn't
have available parking for it yet.
Off to Oklahoma we go...
3-12-04
I'm still so sick. It looks like we are not
going to go see "Camping" on this trip. (I
really would rather stay right here and sleep anyway.)
3-13-04
It's Saturday and I'm just now starting to feel a
little better. Dr. Schaffer has been calling to check on
me everyday. (I really have a great Doctor!)
It has been decided that we are just going to stay
here for the rest of the weekend and open and clean out the RV
to get it ready for this year.
I played quite a bit today and Daddy took some
pictures:

3-19-04
We went to get Drew tonight. Drew is my
"real" non-fur brother. He is 12 years old and
is in the 6th grade. He lives in the country way far
off. He lives close to "Camping." (I'm
kind-of confused about where "Camping" is. I'm
starting to think that maybe there is more than one
"Camping."
I'm almost well now with just a little morning cough
due to sinus. Dr. Schaffer gave me a different medicine
today instead of getting any more dips. (I'm liking her
more and more all the time.)
Starting tomorrow, Makensie will be eating only my
food as she will have been fully adjusted over.
3-25-04
Makensie and I got baths tonight. We really
needed them. Makensie was so dirty, that the water was
tan in color when she was through. She smells much
better now too! (She told me the same thing though.)
Mommy said that this might have been Makensie's very first
bath because she was so dirty. Daddy wanted to use that
"brush" thing on me, but I was able to defend myself
from it: (movie)
I'm sorry that the lighting is so terrible, but it was just
one of those Kodak moments.
My "Awards" page
is filling up really fast and the traffic to my site is
increasing logarithmically everyday. Almost 30% of my
visitors are requesting translations so Mommy is working on a
Spanish version. Daddy put a counter on my index page
last night so everyone could see.
I got a very special email tonight from Darla Smith,
one of the founders of www.k9rescuedltd.org
and the author of what might be the most web-infamous APBT
information pages in the world today.
Makensie is finally learning "Sit."
I am mastering two new commands; "Stay" and
"give me a kiss." I am really good at
"Sit," "Shake," "Lay Down," and
"Go to your Crate." I also know that
"Don't Bite, Ouch" means to LICK PROFUSELY instead.
3-27-04 The Morning Of The BIG Rescue!
My BIG Rescue! This morning I found the oddest little
creature hiding under a plant in the back yard. I could
not figure out what it was. This little animal (I
guess,) was like nothing I have ever seen before. It was
about the size of Squirrel (my little-bitty sister) and had
some hair and some feathers and a little horn sticking out of
it's face. It didn't make any sound. I thought for
a moment that I might have found a unicorn. I went to
get Daddy. When he came to see it, he told me it was a
baby bird that had fallen from its nest. Daddy then went
inside and came back with some gloves and a box with some of
Squirrel's bedding stuff in it. Daddy put the baby bird
in the box and took it inside. Next, Daddy got the
ladder and climbed to where the nest was. The nest had
broken apart from the strong winds. In a part of the
nest that been caught by a branch, there was another
baby. Daddy then tried to rebuild the nest in another
location and make it big and strong enough to hold both babies
and their parents. He told me that we would be really
lucky if the parent birds would accept our new nest.
Daddy used mostly pieces from the old nest to try to keep the
scent right and then put bedding in the bottom to fill the
holes and to give some warmth to the babies. Sometimes
luck really pays off. (I wish we had played the
lottery!) One of the parent birds did come to the new
nest and everybody is doing fine right now. Here are
some pictures of the new home. I'll take more when I can
and show the babies too.

The baby birds flew from the nest this morning. I
added the last bird photos to the album. Here are two
movies showing one of the babies and the Mother after the
first flight.

Mommy took Makensie
and I to a new park today. It was a long concrete trail
with a creek in the middle and a lot of people. We saw
Daddy riding one of his bicycles on this trail. Daddy
stopped to see us and I was so happy to see him in this place
that we have never been. Chisholm
Trail is the name of this trail.
4-26-04
Miss Tatiana sent me an e-mail today. She found all
the information about my breeders.
4-28-04
Daddy called my breeders today and talked to them for a
while. He told me that I can probably get my papers real
soon. YES!
4-30-04
Makensie had to go to the doctor's office today. She
had her eye surgery and got her teeth cleaned. Makensie
has to wear a lamp shade for several days. She looks so
funny.

My First Birthday today. Pictures
here. Being older now, Mommy and
Daddy told me I have to start working on my manners so they taught
me how to say "Please."
10-22 thru 10-24-04
Camping!!! All five of
us went camping this weekend. Our trip was to Tyler
State Park. See the photo album.
Squirrel went with us too because she has to take medicine at
8am. and 8pm. Her Vet said that she might have to have a
surgery...I think she might be the first hamster to get a
surgery.
This was the first weekend that Daddy
did not have school and he said we were going to go camping
whether it rained or not. Weather may be a better word,
because it sure rained so hard Friday night. The big
camping crate, ( Mommy and Daddy call it the
"pop-up") started leaking water about
12:30am. Daddy had to go outside and put tarps over the
top of the pop-up.
It took him about an hour to fix the leak (leaks), and he
was so wet when he came back inside the big camping
crate.
This was the first time for any of us to visit Tyler
State Park, except for Daddy who likes to ride his bike
here. Daddy rode on Friday afternoon, but said it was
too wet to ride the trail after Friday night's
rain.
There were a lot of "big" camping
crates everywhere. Mommy called them
"RV's". Most of them had a dog staying in the
big "RV" crate too. These "RV's"
were prettier than our camping crate on the outside, but we
were the best looking dogs there.....and our pop-up is so
different on the inside than from the outside....I think that
the inside of our camping crate may be better than all the
other RV camping crates.
By Saturday morning, Makensie and I were so
ready to come home. We were bored. Everything was wet,
there was kids making too much noise and running around the
camping area, and we were just bored. Daddy started
cooking breakfast. It smelled so good; bacon, eggs (for
Momma), sausage, toast, and coffee. Wow, ok, I'm
starting to see the benefits of this camping thing.
Well, Makensie and I just got our usual breakfast and just
enjoyed the smell.
Next thing was the trip to take showers.
Makensie nor I got to participate in this, but we were glad
that Momma and Daddy did. While one was in the shower,
we got to go hiking with the other one. This was
great. I really like to climb this steep hillside.
Makensie says that she would prefer an escalator.
Time for our big walk...Mommy has been taking
a nap with us and Daddy has been doing homework. We are
ready to make the entire trip around the lake....lets, go!
Such a great trip!
Ok, time to start getting ready to head home. I
really like it here, but I cant wait to get back to "my
house" and my back yard.
The big crate is down and repacked and we are ready
to go home.
Camping was great! When do we get to come back?
