Sunday Morning Fashion Model

A couple of Sundays ago, I participated in a doggie fashion show for a short segment on one of the local news stations.

They were doing a promotion for P.A.W.S. (Pets Are Wonderful Support)

P.A.W.S is a wonderful charity who helps disabled and low income families keep their beloved pets. They help pay for food & medical care when necessary. Their big fundraising event was coming up and they were trying to get the word out so people would attend.

A friend of Mom's is on the board of directors for the charity and knew right away that she wanted my handsomeness in the fashion show.

So, several other doggies & I went down to the news station early Sunday morning for our big 15 minutes of fame!

This guy took the cuteness trophy home. He was adorable!

This pretty gal had all her tricks down. She played dead, rolled over, sat up pretty & even jumped through her Mom's arms as if they were a hoop!

This little guy was there as the adoptable pup of the weekend. He had quite a story! Apparently, his whole litter was born behind a dumpster in a relatively secluded commercial section of Sandy Eggo. When he was just a couple of weeks old, a big mean coyote came and attacked the litter! People working in the area saw this little guy in the coyote's mouth and chased after it. Luckily, the coyote dropped the pup, but not before a lot of damage was done.

Look at that happy face though! You'd never know he'd been through such a trauma. He even tried to take me on!

He's got some pretty big scars left over from the attack though. Fortunately, they seem to all be on the outside...his heart and soul are as strong as ever!

Us doggies had a pretty easy role. We just had to walk with the models and look pretty.

Unfortunately, when it came to be my turn....I was a big chicken and din't want to walk without Mom. She was SOOO mad that she had to go on camera with me! Luckily, they gave her a big floppy sunhat to wear and she could hide behind it while standing next to the model. BOL!

I kept tryin to tell her I needed GIRL models. These two loved me & I would have done just fine with them!

The host of the program, Leonard Simpson, was super nice. He has a big dopey Labradoodle named Clyde, so I knew he was an ok guy.

Even though I was nervous and woudn't walk without Mom, it was a super fun morning and we sure hope the fundraising event rasies LOTS of green paper for P.A.W.S!

Going away pawty

One of my very bestest friends left Sandy Eggo for a new adventure.

Me & Mom met Kai at one of the Leash Your Fitness classes...and it was love at first site.

Kai & his human are moving to St. Kitts. His human is a super duper Betterinarian, and is going to the Betterinarian school on St. Kitts to teach other humans how to be Betterinarians.

How cool is that!

Kai's Mom isn't sure exactly what he's mixed with, but Mom thinks its pretty safe to say he's at least part Great Dane. He's a big boy with a big goofy personality, and everyone teases us that we have a Bromance going on.

I am totally ok with dat, cuz he's sooooo cool!

The humans all had drinks to celebrate the new adventure Kai is going on...Luckily, Miss Arden Moore brought along some doggie treats for us!

Jack of course, is never one the slack off...so even at the pawty, he found a way to practice his dock diving skills.

I will miss you Kai! Have an incredible time on your new island!

Wordless Wednesday

Incredible Flying Dogs!

Saturday morning, Mom and Auntie Holly went to the San Diego Fair.

And guess what?

They left me & Dhani at HOME!! Can you freakin believe that!?!

Apparently, you had to be invited or sumthing. Something about only the most extreme athletes being allowed on the fair grounds.

Oh Puhlease. I didn't buy it for a minute. I am full of athletic prowess. Seriously. I am.

Anyway, while Mom was at the Fair, she got to see all kinds of amazing things. First, this Bow-Wow Stage Coach went by. These little guys were SO cute!

But what she really went for, was the Purina Incredible Dog Challenge. The best of the best dogs, showing off their athletic ability.

Diving Dogs

Agility Dogs

and even some hurdling dogs.

They were amazing!

I swear...after seeing Mom's pictures, I think I know what all these doggies really are.

INCREDIBLE FLYING DOGS!

Mom even got to see this Malinios Girl break the world record in dock diving! 31 feet 5 inches!! Isn't that crazy insane?!?

Phew. I'm kinda glad I din't get to go. I was tired just LOOKING at the pictures!! BOL!

Lake Murray

Mom's always tryin to find different places for us to walk. Last week, we went to Lake Murray to check it out. It was so nice, we will definitely be back!

Lake Murray is located a little bit East of Sandy Eggo. If you remember my hike up Cowles Mountain, you could see Lake Murray from there.

Mom, of course, made me & cousin Dhani sit still for lots of photos.

Dhani's finally getting the hang of the 'sit-stay', but she still get's a lil distracted.

hey dude...check out the bug!

It was a gorgeous evening for a walk. Lots of peoples were out with their doggies, as well as lots of runners and bikers.

Can't wait to go back!

Not so Wordless Wednesday - Crackberry kitTON

Fergie kitTON has a Crackberry addiction. The bill was outrageous from all the texting she is doing. 

Mom's gonna hafta take it away!

Paw-a-bunga dude!

Wow! It was a CRAZY busy weekend for me & Mom!

Saturday morning, we headed out to the Loews Coronado Surf Dog Competition. For those of you who weren't following us last year, that's where I got my 15 seconds of fame and got filmed to be in one of the "Marmaduke-The Movie" trailers.

This year, there wasn't anything as high profile as that going on, but I did have a bunch of furriends competing so I wanted to go out and cheer them on!

Jack, from Leash Your Fitness, was excited to be part of the compeition. He's definitely got a big heart & soul inside that little terrier body!

All the dogs had their life jackets on, and were ready to go. The waves weren't that big, but its important to always make sure safety comes first!

I got to make lots of new biped furriends. This is Guido Surfdog's Mom...we've been furriends on Facebook, and now finally got to meet in person! I liked her so much I almost sat on her!

There were lots of doggies...every shape and size!

Jack looked really good on the board. Must be nice to be small & have a low center of gravity!

Chopper even came off his Harley to help out at the event. He was in charge of beach safety!

Everyone wanted to have their picture taken with me. These were my favorites though...I think they initiated me into their gang without me even realizing it! BOL!

AbbieGirl took 1st place in her division. She is a total surfer chick!

It got a little warm as the day went on though, so me & Mom didn't stay for the whole show. Besides, as you'll see later, we still had a lot planned for the rest of our Saturday!
