Life. Is. Good.

So, I haven't written on my blog in awhile. It's not my fault! My human is lazy. I've been doing lots of fun things. Like eating baby rabbits!! So far the score is Grizzly=4, Baby Rabbits=0. Wait, does rabbit poop count? My number would be a lot higher if it does!

I've been spending lots of time in my backyard. here's a picture of me enjoying my backyard.

Mine! Mine! Mine!

Here's another picture of me in my backyard.

I'm excellent at camouflage!

My human built me a rabbit blind. Here's a picture of me in my rabbit blind.

Yeah, the rabbits would definitely have to be blind NOT to see me. I'll stick to my own hiding skills, thank you!

For Grizzly Day my human got me a Puppucino from Starbuck's. Here's a picture of me eating my Puppuccino.

More please! I didn't get any more.

Did I mention my backyard has raspberries? Here's a picture of me eating a raspberry.

There's a cherry tree too! My human says when I eat the fallen cherries my poop is the pits. Huh? I don't get it. Whatever.

I got to go to the beach a lot this summer too. Here's a picture of me at the beach.

So much fun!! We should go there every day. After I hunt for rabbits in the gardens.

Wait, did I not go to Ribfest this year? Why didn't I go to Ribfest????!!! Hmph!! At least I get to go Trick or Treating soon because it's almost Halloween. i know it's almost Halloween because my human made me do this.

What do you mean dogs don't Trick or Treat? Going door to door and begging for treats? That's definitely something a dog would do! Dress up? Costume? Uh, nevermind. I'll just send my human out for steaks. Or Popeye's! Yeah, steaks and Popeye's! And make it a double!!

Happy 2015!

I don't know how it got to be 2015 already. One minute I was having fun at a cabin in Michigan and the next thing I know my human is dragging a dead tree out of the house!

In October I went to My Sweet Adeline's cabin in Michigan with my friend, Knuckles. Our humans came too. I got to run around off leash and go in the lake and woods. I even got to chase a raccoon! Then I was on leash again. But I can't chase the raccoon when I'm on leash - take it off! My human didn't take it off. Here are some pictures from my cabin trip.

Here's me in front of the cabin.

Here's me on the dock in the backyard. 

Here's me taking my morning dip.

Knuckles is a late sleeper, so I spent some time alone in the morning. Here's me exploring on my own.

 Here's me playing with a stick in the backyard.

Here's me in the neighbor's yard.

Here's me and the neighbor dog, Lucy.

Here we are in her backyard.

Here's me taking my afternoon dip with Lucy.

Oh, look who's up. Here's me resting while Lucy and Knuckles play.

Yeah, just keep it over there and we'll be fine.

Here's me and Knuckles hitting the road.

Squirrel!!

Here's me and Knuckles taking a late afternoon dip.

  

  

 Here's me drying off after my late afternoon dip. Do I smell raccoon??? 

Here's me in the yard after chasing the raccoon.

Seriously, the leash is not necessary!

Here's me on the dock, post raccoon chase.

Here's me and Knuckles forced to pose in the front yard.

 Here's me resting in the cabin.

I give My Sweet Adeline's 4 PAWS UP!!! When are we going back? I bet they have lots of rabbits there in the winter!

You say Restoration Hardware, I say Pottery Barn

A few weeks ago (yes, my human is so slow), we went to Pottery Barn. My human went to pick up some candles she put on hold. I went to get pets and treats. Here's a picture of me in Pottery Barn.

It's blurry and I didn't get any treats. And my human didn't put anything on hold at Pottery Barn. She meant Restoration Hardware. She didn't figure that out until we were halfway home, so I didn't get to go to Restoration Hardware. I bet they would have had treats. Sigh. I give Pottery Barn 2 Paws because they gave good pets, but they had all wood floors and no treats. Seriously, treats are very important.

Walking the Cat(DOG)walk for Safe Humane Chicago

So life is good. Summer was…less hot. I've been doing a lot of this.

And some of this.

My human is building a catio. Um. I'll still be able to go in the yard, right? Good. Here's a picture of me on the catio. It's not done yet.

Last week I walked the catwalk at Bloomingdale's in the Doggies & Denim Fashion Show to benefit Safe Humane Chicago. Wouldn't that be a dogwalk? Yeah, just try walking a cat thru Bloomingdale's. Here's a picture of me waiting for my turn on the DOGwalk.

It's blurry. Here's another (blurry) picture of me at Bloomie's.

My human made me pose there. I don't see why. She says it's "descriptive."

And here's a picture of me in the fashion show.

It was taken by Josh Feeney. That's why it's not blurry!

I got lots of treats and 2 Sprinkles' cupcakes. My human spent most of the time being annoyed. Not me! Did I mention the 2 cupcakes!?! Mmmmmmmmmm!!! I give Bloomingdale's 4 Paws! They always have cupcakes, right?

New, new, and …..RABBIT!!

My blog did not move, but I did! Here is a picture of me at my new house.

I'm in the backyard. MY yard. Mine. Mine. MINE! And it has lots of RABBITS! Big, fat, juicy rabbits! And little, warm, crunchy baby rrrrrabbits! So far I've caught one baby rabbit. And a squirrel. I could have caught more, but my human gets in the way. A lot. I also like to chase robins. I don't really care about other birds, but robins sounds like rabbits, so there.

Here's another picture of me in my yard.

Do I look happy? SO HAPPY!!

Look! I found a cool place under the deck!

My human didn't like my new spot. She blocked it off with a bunch boards. But I was nice and cool there! Hmph!

I found a new cool spot.

No, wait! Even better! Can you see me? The rabbits can't!

Good luck blocking that!

I like the inside of the house too. Here's where I sit and watch for rabbits coming into my yard.

Sometimes I bark at them. Get out of MY YARD! GET. OUT!

Here's where I like to lie down sometimes. I can keep track of who's on what floor from here.

This is exhausting. I just want to lie in the yard. All day. Every day. Please??

Thank you!!!

Best. Winter. Ever!

It's been so long since I wrote on my blog - time flies when there's a Polar Vortex! I never heard of a Polar Vortex before, but can we have one every year? Please?????

Here is a picture of me enjoying the nice cool weather in the park.

Do I look happy? I am SOOOOOOO HAPPY!!

And here's a picture of me walking in the backyard of my new house.

So much snow!!! I'm heading to where the rabbits live! I almost caught one. Again. Then I got put on leash and taken out of the yard. Huh? It's my yard, right? My human says no running the rabbits out until it's warm and they can find someplace safe to go. Um…I wasn't planning to run them out. Just eat them! MMMMMMMM!!!! Rabbits!!

This has been such a good winter. But my best friend, Roethke moved away and I really, really miss him. Here's a picture of us from last year when he came home for a visit.

We had so much fun!!

I did make a couple of new friends, but I don't see them as often. Here's a picture of me playing with my new friends, Chavo and Rocco.

Here's another one.

Body slam!!

And one more…

Yeah!!!!!

The rest of the winter has been pretty much the same. Snow and cold, cold and snow! I got to take lots of snow naps while my human shoveled.

Can it be like this all year?

Oh, and then there's this.

Dog shaming. Not a fan. Next time I'd like some ham with my loaf of bread. And some cheese too. Yeah, lots of ham and cheese.
