My First Doggy Pool Party! Adventure #12

Today human Granny and human Papa took me to have a Great Adventure with the West Loop Dog Meet-Up Group that paired up with The Chicagoland Puggle Meet-Up Group! A Doggy Pool Party at K9 Oasis at Pet Care Plus in Downtown Chicago IL USA! We all three had a Great time. I got to meet a nice Puggle named Sandy and her humans that runs my Puggle Group and a few other nice doggies. I was kinda scared with all the big doggies running around. I stayed right by human Granny and human Papa. They both had lunch and human Granny had little treats in her Doggy Pouch Bag for me. I shared with a few doggies. Snicker! Snicker! I went in the Puppy Pool with human Papa and human Granny close by, but it was kinda scary to go in the Big Dog Pool. Human Papa helped me and did not throw me in or make me go very far. I did not do much swimming. Maybe next time. My human Granny brought my tennis ball and played with the other doggies. I was too busy watching all the canine activity. All and all it was a fun time. Human Granny has a few pics for me to share with all you Doggy Friends and human friends too. Hope to go again real soon. I had a Barking Great time!

Me and human Papa in the Puppy Pool!

This is what I did when human Granny went to eat.....looked all over for her. Yes that is me to the right looking for my human Granny. Human Papa was chatting with other male humans to the left.

This is the Big Dog Pool. Human Papa is with me on the left next to the wall. He was very gentle showing me how to swim.

This is what I learned to play on from a really cute Big English Bull Dog. He showed me how to run up and down the ramps. But no I did not take the stairs. Bark!

Human Papa's Father's Day 2009! Adventure #11

Well it was a quiet Adventure on human Papa's Father's Day 2009. After human Papa came home from Church he just wanted a Big Mocha Coolatta from Dunkin Donuts. Which he got. Then we put the air conditioner on high and had a nice rest. We did what he likes to do best....NAP! It was a Great Adventure for a lazy day.......He will be spending his money gift later. Maybe he will buy me something? Bark! Happy Belated Father's day to all the human Fathers of all my Doggy Friends. Hope you enjoyed your day as much as I did!

Graduation Day! Adventure #10

Graduation day was quite a Adventure. I actually did very well during school. Beginner Education was my class name. I finished with flying colors. I was still a little Puggle Pup. My human Granny and human Mommy and human Papa was at all my classes. Human Granny missed one and human Mommy had to take me. Actually I learned to sit and wait and to come puppy when called. I also learned to walk nice on the leash. Treats were very plentiful in them days. I made some puppy friends but sadly I haven't seen them since Graduation Day 2/21/08. Maybe someday they will read about this Adventure and we can meet-up again and have a play day. I would love that. Bark!
Here is my Graduation Pic with the other Grads on that day with their humans. It sure was a fun Adventure.

Get them Squirrels! Adventure #9

Human Granny is not happy about all the squirrels that keep coming on the patio and digging in her flowers. I have been trying to keep guard of the patio, but this patio window keeps me from getting at them. I keep this little one close to me so he does not cause any havoc on the place. He seems to be very still and quiet. I know how to keep him in check as you can see. Well back to my guard duty. Hope you have a Great weekend! Catch you later unless you catch me first.

Tribute To Kari Winters RIP 2/28/1951 to 5/18-19/2009

© My Human Friend.......

"Scared and Sad I came to you,

Your soft voice and gentle hands I knew.

I felt the love no matter how much my pain,

No one even ever knew my name.

When I was cold you made me warm,

You were their threw all the storms.

Never once to complain or boast,

My human friend I love you the most.
Mentored many to be like the same,

Taught them their was so much to gain.

Now only may you have rest,

And in the end the ones that know you best.

We'll all be together now and forever made whole,

Please let your story always be told."

Human Auntie is a Great person that works for the Siamese Cat Rescue in CA and the Puggle Rescue in CA and the German Shepard Rescue in CA. She started a lot of her Volunteer Work because of this wonderful Sweet Soul Kari Winters (RIP). My human Auntie found out about a lady in Southern CA that had many animals that needed some attention while she (the lady) was recovering from some surgery. Human Auntie being the Great animal lover that she is went over to walk some dogs and pet some kittens and give them all some love.
Kari Winters (RIP), got her (my human Auntie) started with her first foster kittens. She mentored her in a very special way. Kari Winters was a Special person that endured much pain but never complained or boasted about anything she was going threw or accomplished. I have posted a link that human Granny found and you can read all about her.
(Please read about her in this link thanks.......

May she RIP and her work never be forgotten. Thanks for reading about her. Wimper)
Now human Auntie gives a lot of her time to Help Animals. Bringing a little love to some animals lives like spending hours on the phone interviewing new people for potential adoptions and going to the local shelter to spend some time with the strays. Please follow my human Auntie's example if you have some time to spare. I have a Shelter Finder posted on my page and it will Help you find a local Shelter in your area. They are always grateful and appreciate all the wonderful people that come to spend some very much needed time with the animals. Thanks for your Support!

Rain, Rain, Go Away already! Adventure #8

This has been one weird year (2008 /2009) for Chicago IL USA weather. We had the longest winter. Not too too bad of a winter just a very long one. I thought Spring would never come. Now April 2009 is over and all we have had is Rain, Rain, Rain! So I really do so love water and the sprinkler in the summer and my bath when human Granny splashes the water up in my face. But RAIN O'no I do not like RAIN! It makes me walk on my tippie toes and it is so cold. When I come in I run all over the house shaking and rubbing my face in the carpet and on the couch and human Granny's bed. Just not one of my favorite things to do is a walk in the rain.

The Lost Banana aka Naner Adventure #7

Hello friends I have a new adventure to tell you about, here goes:
Human Granny usually has a banana a day for her potassium level to stay up. I LOVE bananas and it is one of the human foods human Granny gives me in moderation. I am on a all Protein diet these days to keep my weight down. Well she comes to me the other day and ask me, "Ariel where did Granny's naner go?" I am still not sure what she was talking about. What makes her think I took it? Hmmm! I wonder?.......Lick, Ariel ♥

o.k. so maybe I did have some idea where it went
Snicker, Snicker!

Peek-a-Boo! Adventure #6

Hi everyone, here is the new everyday Adventure. Human Papa and human Granny got these new desk chairs for each other for Christmas 2008 and I have learned to jump up on one. The only thing is they swing around and sometimes I can not get out of it. I only like human Papa's cuz it has a pillow in the seat that I can lay my head down and get cozy in. Sometimes human Granny goes into the other rooms to do stuff and I am stuck in the chair. I cry and then I have to bark sometimes to get her attention to turn the chair around so I can get myself out. Bark! It is really a funny Adventure each and everyday. But I do love to cuddle in the chair.
