Well, actually, naps are good any ol' day of the week, not just on a Sunday... and even better when curled up with a favorite friend or family member.

Since the Wonderful People came and broke me out of that yucky jail cell, I have experienced lots of new things.
All the new things are really great but it gets kind of overwhelming at times. There is just so much to see and hear that sometimes I get all mixed up and scared and my body gets stuck. My people help me a lot and remind me that I should look at them instead of trying to see everything, but my biggest help of all is my big sister, Lulu. When I'm not sure what to do I look at her, and she makes me feel much better.
Lulu is very clever and knows lots of things and never seems scared. My people tell me she is a Canine Good Citizen, and that they hope I will be one someday, too. I'm going to study very hard because once I’m a Canine Good Citizen, I will be smart and brave, just like Lulu.
I love to copy Lulu, because everything she does is the best. She has shown me lots of things like how to lie on the couch with style,
how to chew toys,
and how to sunbathe.
If I keep copying her, I know I will be brave one day.
Thank you, Lulu, for being the best big sister any little dog could ever want.

Only this time we weren’t on the road for nearly as long as that time when we headed out west from Virginia. This road trip was much shorter. My foster mom told me that she was taking me on my very first family vacation. Hmmm…”vacation”…what does that mean?
So, mom loaded up the car and piled us all in, and we drove to a really fun place in the mountains of Northern California. Personally, I like road trips, but I found out that big sister Maxine does not like long car rides nearly as much as me. She spends most of the time squishing herself into some remote corner of the car, doing her best impression of an ostrich, and/or plopping herself on top of the grocery bags, reducing the potato chips and loaf of bread to mere crumbs. If you ask me, I think she’s being kinda silly.
So, as it turns out, “vacation” is one of my very favorite new vocabulary words! Woof!
Just like my buddy Uba said, it is soooooo much fun to play and bounce and wrestle in the snow…
And after all of that excitement, it is very important to find a perfect place to take a nap…
I think I need to ask mom to take me on another vacation very soon!
I dint know how to swim yet, but my peeps trew me in dis big box of wader called a baff an den covered me wit bubbles. It wus warm an nice an the man tawked nice to me but - GEEZ! - Iz glad itz over.
I hope I dunt hafta do dat agin! Herz da movie: Baff Time!

Lemme tell ya. This California livin' is really all people say it is.
After I got settled in -- I hear people calling it my "foster home," whatever the heck that is -- these cool people started taking me out for a jog just about every morning. In fact, Nice Mister said I was doing so good that he brought Lucy, their ornery dog, on the run with us. That was fun!
I really love our jogs. I've found my favorite places to *ahem* relieve myself, and Nice Mister
and Nice Lady have finally learned to get out of the way so I can FLING dirt as far as I can afterward. They think I'm marking, but I'm really trying to get that dirt across the street! I've almost perfected it, too. Just . . . one . . . more . . . FLING!!Nice Lady brings me to a big building every week where there were a LOT of other dogs, and we would heel and sit, heel and lie down, and circle around heeling. These people sure do like to play the heel game. Eh, it makes Nice Lady happy, so I do it. Plus, every once in a while, she surprises me with treats. Now, I've trimmed down a bit since living in California, but I can never say no to those treats! Where DOES she get those things from?!
And, I have to tell you -- remember that Nice Kid? The one who came up with my name? Dog love him because when he and Nice Lady are going out, he wants me to come, too, and man oh MAN is it fun.
Yup. Stoked. I could really get used to this California place.
