Christmas Cookie Party

Dear Family,
I have new furry, mini friends- Calvin, Chippie, and Lisa. Bow-wow, did we have a ripp- roarin' time. Humping and bumping and scrapping all the way!! I am pooped!
Cookies...I don't remember any of the cookie stuff, but I remember Lisa and me running around alot. And then we played dress up-- and Lisa helped me pull off my costume- and then she ran off with it and hid it under the table. Welll, first I thought maybe it was lost forever- no luck. They found it. Then me and Cal put on just the hats and that was fun until Lisa pulled it off hid it under the table- yeah they found it again.
Most of time we played- they have a doggie door which I kept trying to leap in and out of- it reminded me of the hoop...and then I forgot the hoop trick, so I danced like no one was watching. good advice-- dance! dance! dance! Boy, am I pooped. Poo, poo sweet dreams to you,you.
Love,
Rosie

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROSIE

Dear Family,
Yesterday we celebrated my birthday. My "cake" was turkey. Prepared by my HaMaMa.
She's in Thialand with HaDaDa. But, my host family sang Happy Birthday to me and it was a fun day.
We have started decorating and I helped! And Kendensky the cat slept next to me. And Edgar still loves me. We did dog back riding- well I jumped him while he standing by the couch and I held on for 2 seconds! Exciting! He is so nice.
Now, if you check in Tomorrow's blog is titled,-"Holiday Apparel and Dog Party"
Oh and I slept through the night!!
Love,
Rosie

Meet One of the Cats

Dear Family,
OK, only Little Foot will hang out with me. Little Foot is almost 19 years old!
And she will snuggle with me. Sunshine and Kendensky- no- well sometimes Kendensky but then when I come running up to him- he runs the other direction? Any advice?
I am so nice to my cats- Fifi and Jenga- they just love me. Right?
Edgar showed me his bones and we took them out and chewed and played and then- I needed a nap. First, with Little Foot, we were helping pick out recipes from the Joy of Cooking- yummy stuff. I think I could write a doggie cook book. But, what I really need is a pooped puppy nap.
Love,
Rosie

The Gang

Dear Family,
Edgar (the tall dark and handsome) the wagger loves it when I nibble on his ear. Grommett (the very old and deaf one) doesn't go in for puppy love- old fashion dog.
But, Edgar loves rolling and rolicing in the field behind my host family's home.
Yesterday, I found this lovely stick- twice the size of me. I pranced about with it and then ....what happened to that stick, oh well there are many more to find.
We go walking together- in the photo I heard something and needed to see what was up and apparently that happened allot that day--so many smells and sounds...oh well there is always tomorrow to see what I can see and maybe pose for a walking picture. No promises so many things can come up at the minute to grab my attention. Bow-wow, bow-wow- I live in the now. Bow-wow. Pooped again.
Love,
Rosie
--next blog, meet the cats!!

My first few days

Dear Family,
I have arrived safe and sound. Here in Virginia things are different, but nothing a smart dog can't handle. And I am smart- I know how to get out from under a blanket!
I have enclosed some pictures to share.
As you can see, Edgar, my new boyfriend, falls asleep on the job! But, sooo fun to play with--he loves the violin.
Also, we have cats living above us and they are soooo rude- they don't talk to strange dogs. What can I doo-doo? I am ready for a meet and greet whenever--
I will write again, duty or doo-doo calls- something walking down the street!
Love,
Rosie
