So Much Stuff!

I've been really busy the last few weeks. I'm still going to work with my human almost every day. Here's a picture of me at work.

It's exhausting. I also helped transport a cat. We went to The Anti-Cruelty Society. Hey! I remember this place! I went to the vet clinic there to get spayed. I went right in. We stood around for awhile and then we left - with a cat. I wasn't sure I liked that, but then we went straight to Felines & Canines. Hey! This place smells like my friend Knuckles! Knuckles wasn't there. But there was lots of cat food. Mmmmmmm! Kibble! I wasn't allowed any kibble. Brandi gave me a dog biscuit. (I think it was one of Knuckles'.) Mmmmmm! It was so good! Here's a picture of me eating my dog biscuit.
See those giant bowls of cat kibble? I was trying to get closer to the bowls, but I wasn't allowed. The cat who's sniffing my tail is Sven. He was nice and followed me around. He's still waiting for his forever home. There were lots of other nice cats there too and they all need homes. I was in a shelter before I came to live with my humans, but it wasn't as nice as Felines & Canines.

On Friday I went to lululemon on Halsted Street for my human to pick something up - not a cat though! I liked lululemon. They had a big bowl of dog biscuits right inside the door! Mmmmmmm! Biscuits! Two, please! I didn't get two. I give lululemon 3 Paws! Then we stopped by Family Pet Animal Hospital to drop something off - again, not a cat - and I got weighed. My human said it was good because I didn't gain any weight since last time. I say that's proof I don't get fed enough!

Then on Saturday morning I went for a really long walk. First I went to the beach. Here's a picture of me at the beach.
Ahhhhhh! So cool! Then I walked to Starbucks. I'll have a Venti Whipped Cream, please! I didn't get one. Why not?? I need to gain weight, remember? When I got home my human read a book on the front steps and I got to lie in the yard. My friend Moses stopped by. He's a doberman. We played a little and then I went upstairs. I could have gone to bed right then, but instead we got in the car and went to Aunt Alyenne's for dinner. Oh boy! I love going there! On Easter I went there and had elk - ELK!!!! I'm an Elkhound, I should get elk all the time! It was sooooo gooooood! This time we had chicken. Mmmmmmm! Chicken. There were two little girls there, Taylor and Grace. Oh boy! Kids! I like kids. They always drop food on the floor for me. They were scared of me. I don't see why. I wasn't scared of them! After awhile Taylor came over and petted me for a long time. Bellyrub, please! She didn't give me a bellyrub. Maybe next time. They dropped some peas during dinner, but I wasn't allowed to eat them. Huh? That's just wasteful! After dinner I went into the kitchen and cleaned up the floor. I got two peas! Mmmmmm! Peas!! Right before they left, Grace finally petted me. See, I'm not scary! Here's a picture of me with Taylor and Grace and their mom, Emily.

I'm still hoping I'll get more chicken. I didn't.

Bark in the Park

I went to Montrose Beach for Anti-Cruelty's Bark in the Park. It was just a week ago, but it feels like a lot longer. I was working at the Safe Humane Chicago table. Here's a picture of me in front of the table.
It's blurry. Lots of people came by to see what we were all about, but there weren't very many kids. We were right next to a table filled with dog treats. Mmmmm! Treats! Can I have one? Please? My human made me stay in front of our table. All I had was a little bowl of water and lots of other dogs came by and drank out of it. No thank you! I don't like community water bowls. Unless I'm really thirsty. Then maybe. We were there for a long time. Finally my human took me for a walk around the park. We saw the High Hopes table. Oh boy! Cupcakes! It was the nice lady who fed me cupcakes at Soggy Paws – and she remembered me – and she fed me cupcakes! Two of them!!! Here's a picture of me eating one of my cupcakes.
MMMMMMMM!!! Then we went to another table where they had Stella & Chewy's treats. Yes, please!! Mmmmmm! So good! Here's a picture of me waiting for my treat.
See how patient I'm being? Then we stopped at the Kriser's table next to ours. Oh boy! More treats! Here's a picture of me getting a treat at the Kriser's table.
I have no idea what they gave me, but it was good! Then we went back to our table. I kept staring at the Kriser's table – I couldn't help it. They felt bad for me and fed me more treats. Anyone can see I'm under fed! On the way home, my human saw the Fido to Go truck. She went over to talk to them and guess what? They gave me a treat! It was a blueberry bagel! MMMMMM!!! Here's a picture of me eating my bagel.
I'm looking away from the camera because I'm chewing my bagel. It was huge! All that eating made me tired. Hey, maybe the Fido to Go truck can give us a ride home! My human said we had to walk…something about calories and exercise, but I wasn't really listening. I was remembering all the treats I had! I give Bark in the Park 3 paws. Next year maybe we can hit more tables with treats! MMMMMMM!
