Shopping Saturday

On Saturday my parents took me to Paris to do some shopping.   Here is a picture of me in the lovely Paris pet store.

Then I took some walks, barked at some dogs and fell asleep.

Today

After two very busy days I decided to spend most of the day sleeping in the grass at the side of the camper.  Ahh!

A very busy 2 days

My parents and I left for Alaska!

It was an exciting day of new smells at rest stops and a chance to run around my aunt, uncle and NEPHEW JON'S backyard and house.  Such lovely foligage!  A deck to crawl under! A pool! Treats!  People who love me!  This is me by the pool.

I visited my grandma Emily!  She loves me too.  Here is a picture of me and my grandma and my Dad.

Yesterday I went to a new country - Cananda!  The people there love me too.  The lovely women at what my parents called a "Welcome Centre" petted me, told me I was beautiful and gave me treats.  They were sorry to see me leave, but we continued on to a place called Paris where we set up our camper.

Paris has lots of grass for me to lounge on when I am guarding the camper.  When my parents are out, I sleep on their bed.

Alaska

According to my parents we are leaving for Alaska tomorrow.

They don't seem to be as rushed as they were before - now they're paying some attention to me:)

Alaska is so far away it's hard for me as a Louisiana dog, to grasp.

I'll sleep on it.

A strange day

My parents were running around all day and ignoring ME!

I don't understand it!

I don't have doggie breath and I try to keep my body perfumed by rolling around in the yard.

Why is this happening?

I think I'll sleep on it.

A great disappointment

Today my parents kept telling me that I was going into Manhattan to see my grandfather.But at the last minute they decided to take my neighbor (who I bark at all the time) and his daughter instead.

Then I found out that I missed seeing my brother Josh too!.

It's not so much that I miss going to Manhattan.  I am cosmopolitan enough to enjoy sniffing the air there every once in a while,but I do feel bad that may friends did not have the opportunity to see ME!  They must have been VERY sad!,

I will drown their sorrows by going to sleep.

A long ride

I went for a very long ride with my parents today. 

They do enjoy my company!.

BTW, I'm asleep now

An important job that I do

Last night I slept in bed with my brother Josh.  My parents didn't say so, but I know they missed me.

I greeted some of my parent's friends in the morning.  This is a very important part of my job here.  If I didn't bark at people and take treats from them, they probably wouldn't come to visit.  They would not feel welcome if I didn't make a big fuss over them.  Then my parents wouldn't have any friends.

By the time you read this, I will be asleep.

Squirrel

I killed a big squirrel today in my backyard. 

I brought it to my parents and they gave me a special treat and told me how great I am.

My brother Josh did not look happy.

It made me very tired.  I'm going to sleep.

Saturday

I had 2 bully sticks today!!!!

My brother Josh is visiting!  My uncle Eric came over with my friend Brian.  They all love me!

Being populr is exhausting.  I'm going to sleep now.

A good day

I went for a ride in the morning.

I barked at the mailman.

I sat outside in the sun in the afternoon. 

Then I made my paretns laugh by making a smelly fart.  They love when I do this.  They make all sorts of silly "Phew" noises, but I know they love when I do that.

I think I'll go to sleep now.

A busy day

Today I went to Best in Show to visit with some of my canine friends that I haven't seen since I left for Florida.

Vigorous sniffing when I came in told me that most things had remained the way I left them.

While it is good to catch up with friends, it leaves me very tired.  I'm going to go to sleep.

Meet me

I'm Belle. 
My parents tell me we are going to Alaska in my airstream. 
I like to ride in my diesel and at night I get to sleep in their bed. 
I'm looking forward to the trip.
I'm going to sleep now.
