Harvey got some new toys and treats from Santa too. Got a rope, a ball, some squeeky toys and bones. Know what he played with and what I finally had to sneak away from him 3 days later (and then dealt with the accusing looks from him as he searched for it, lol?) A damn plastic water bottle! Reminded me of a kid who gets a new toy and ignores it for the box it came in.

I secretly think the makers of pet toys know full well that our pets don't have any interest in those toys. I bet most dogs would prefer old water bottles and shoes to some of those cute looking dog toys you can buy. I like the idea of taking your pets to the store - let them pick their OWN toys, I say.

I am ready to give away a little pug! I bought a bunch of yarn on sale...sat the bag down and later found a whole room of unwound yarn with a pug in the middle of the mess! I know cats love to play in yarn but now I know pugs do too.

That blasted chicken already stopped squeaking! And after Santa stood there and meticulously squeaked each chicken on the rack to find the best squeaker! LOL. Santa didn't bring any toys last year cause Santa couldn't bear walking down the toy aisle of Pet's Mart. Bomba isn't as much a toy aficionado (that was his brother's domain). Bomba has his beloved Yellow Bear, and a favorite ball that squeaks wonderfully (which is why Santa looked specifically for a good squeaking toy). Bomba only plays with the chicken when I pick it up and make its broken squeaker blow air on his face. LOL! Then he grabs it from me, trots away with it, drops it, and pounces on his ball. LOL. Oh well.

The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue. -Anonymous

Very cute pictures Kaili. It is funny how dogs look totally different after they get a hair cut. My dog looks like a totally different dog when he gets cut. Julie I love your little quote above, but tongue wagging could probably get someone more friends

Well, Riley sure has filled my days. We are in the process of house-breaking. He did very well the first 5 days, only a couple of accidents and those were next to the newspaper so I thought it was just a matter of not knowing where his butt was in relationship to the edge. I then made a huge mistake, I didn't realize what that mistake was until someone told me. I mopped the kitchen floor with an ammonia based cleaning product. Then he started pee'ing anywhere in the kitchen... EWWW. So my darling husband decided the best thing would be is to invest in a doggie litter box. ROFL, OOOOKKKKAAAYYY!!! Yes indeed, Riley adored his new box. He sat in that box for hours, he was so proud of his new box, he'd prance when he remembered it sitting in the corner. He sat so proud, but...NO, he would never dream of pottying in his brand new special box. Those little pieces of litter were almost as fun to bury his nose under as snow is. We thought we'd clarify the reason for the box by putting a piece of the dirty newspaper in it. ROFL...OH NO!!! What was that nasty paper doing in his box? He worked very diligently at getting that disgusting newspaper out of his box, when he finally succeeded he sat in his box barking at the paper. So, we are back to taking him outside after napping, eating and playing and the newspaper is in the corner, the doggie litter box hidden away.This seems to be working much better, again yesterday the only accidents were near the newspaper or on the edge of the paper. Wish me luck.

We give dogs time we can spare, space we can spare and love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made. -M. Acklam

Luck, Secret! I am so glad you are all enjoying Riley so much. The house-breaking story is hilarious. It reminded me of our late Nipsey. We tried to paper-train her, too. We did everything to convince her to use that paper spot, nothing worked (come to think of it, I may have used the same kind of cleaner you did). Finally, one day I observed her peeing on the floor, dipping her nose in the puddle and walking over and sitting on the paper. That's the day we stopped considering the frigid temps outside and making her go in the snow. She was completely house-broken in 2 weeks.LOL

SS LOL at the training box. He thought it was his new bed. I'm assuming you would put him in there every time he woke from a nap or ate or drank something. It would have been great if he would have learned to use the box, no more middle of the night potty calls in the cold of winter. My dog learned with in 2 weeks to go outside all the time, he was very easy to train and had very few accidents in the house.

lola is still not all the way potting training. i swear it's a major pain in the ass. i'm convinced that she knows she's supposed to go on the pads, but just goes where she wants to. it's quite aggravating, but i think it's a pretty common problem with chis. they are headstrong and stubborn and want everyhthing their way. it's a good thing they are cute, too. lol!

So, Not sure what possessed me, but last night, I decided that Sandy and Mocha needed be introduced to clothing. So.. I pulled out 2 old shirts of mine and popped em on the girls... It was quite humorous. Sandy walked right out of hers, Mocha's stayed on. I did manage to get pictures though! You can see how much they didn't love it.. hehehe

Those poor girls! If I were to caption the pics....#1: Oh nooooo, please don't tell me Mom is going to be one of those types of owners that dress doggies up in clothes! #2: Ok, I'll play along just long enough for you to take the picture quick and then I'm getting out of this thing! What I really came in here for was an article I saw posted on another board.... Tainted Dog Food Warning

LOL Yes, the look on their faces were priceless, especially Mocha's. That is not something I plan to do very often, if ever again.. LOL Who: thanks for the link. Thankfully, none of that food is sold in kansas and I also get Purina Beneful, so, all good.

Here's Riley he puts his toys in his bed now so he doesn't have to chase them, everyone seems to think they should toss those things around and he'll go get them...... what's the matter with those people?
