Thanksgiving in Ohio

I spent a fun-filled week last week in Ohio for Thanksgiving with the Zimmerman’s. I had lots of fun playing in the yard with Rudy (their 14 year old dog), eating Turkey and sleeping on everyone’s laps. This is me with my mom and dad posing by the birch tree.

This is me in the car on the drive there, curled up sleeping with my Aunt Rachael. Aren't we cute?

This is me helping Aunt Rachael type her paper.


In this picture dad was teaching me to play the piano. I'm getting good!

Exciting news!

So it turns out i'm going to be a big brother! I am so excited and a little confused. When mom and dad told me I assumed that we'd all go together to pick him or her out from a litter like they did with me. But instead they are growing this one inside mom's tummy. I really don't understand why. The other weird thing is that we have to wait until next May to bring him or her home. They tell me i'm going to be a big brother, get my hopes up, and then tell me I have to wait 7 months. Humbug. Anyway the new little one is already taking after me. It started it's own blog. You can check it out at www.zimmerbaby.com. Enjoy!

Fancy new collar

Hello, sorry it's been a while since i've posted. I have been a busy puppy. For mom's birthday her BF's got her a really cool present. The really cool part is that it's for me! I got a fancy schmancy new collar. I had mom take a few pictures of me wearing it. Isn't the bone tag cute!?! I am a stud.





Thank you Carrie and Katie! You are the best!

Cats are weird

Wooster: "What is this?"
Plato: "A guitar, why?"

Wooster: "Hmmmm"
Plato: "What are you doing?"


Wooster: "I think i'll eat these strings."
Plato: "Cats are so weird"

Happy Birthday Dad!

For Dad's birthday Grandma Janet, Grandpa Guy and Aunt Rachael came to town for the weekend. It was a surprise for Daddy and I had a really hard time keeping the secret. Luckily I managed and he had no idea. Here they are after the big surprise. I wish I could have been there. :(
Grandpa Guy and I enjoying a quick snooze.
One of my favorite things to do is wake up Aunt Rachael in the morning with lots of licks. Who needs an alarm when you've got me!
For Dad's birthday Mom made a vegan light saber chocolate birthday cake. I heard it was good but they wouldn't let me have any. Apparently chocolate isn't good for puppies...blah...blah...blah...it's not fair.
So big it wouldn't fit in one frame!

To Swim or Not to Swim

We decided to go swimming one day.  I did not want to go.  I do not like the water.  Please don't make me go.
Please oh please oh please don't drop me in the cold blue pond.
Where's the wall? Where's the wall?
Dad, please take me to the wall.  I want to get out, NOW.

Burr, very cold, very cold.
As you can see, I was not a big fan of the pool.  I am a very good swimmer but I do not like the pool.  I wouldn't even take a beggin strip I was so freaked out.  Hopefully i'll never have to do that again. 

Dog n Jog

Last weekend was my first Dog N Jog.  It was lots of fun meeting hundreds of dogs and visiting all the booths.  This is me and my mom and dad.Me visiting mom while she worked the Spin and Win booth.
These are all the people and dogs who participated in the one mile walk.
Walkin dogs
Dad and me walkin!

Post walk portrait.  Girlfriend lips!

Invasion of the White Puff Balls

Two little white fluff balls came to stay at our house for a week.  They smelled like dogs but were covered in all this fuzzy white stuff.  I was very confused.  It was very difficult to get this shot but we managed to get all of the animals on the sofa and looking at the camera, almost.  This is Lil Beau (Little Boy) and I wrestling.  He is six months old and fiesty! We pretty much spent the whole week wresting.  The nice thing about that fuzz, it is easy to grab with the teeth.
Oooo don't I look vicious!  Don't mess with me puffy! Grrr
Time out for a breather.
This is me trying to kiss Jolie, Lil Beau's mother.  She didn't want much to do with me.
In fact most of the time Jolie spent like this, hiding on the sofa.  I think she was trying to stay out of the fray.
Wooster too spent most of the time watching from a safe distance.
Now i'm all for humping, but give me a break.  This little guy wouldn't leave me alone.  
Even while I was getting a drink of water.
And while I was trying to take care of business with Jolie.  
It was fun to have playmates around for a week but i'm glad to have my house back to myself again.  

Me and Rocko

Every Wednesday I get to go play with my pal Rocko.  He is my cousin dog.  While mom and dad play poker at Matt's house.  They have a fenced in back yard where we get to run and run and run until we can no longer move.  I always sleep well on Wednesday nights.

Puggle Party

One nice spring day I decided to go to the puppy park.  I've been several times before.  But this day would turn out to be very different.  I was just minding my own business humping a little fluffy dog when all of the sudden I turned around, and I thought I was looking in the mirror.  There was a dog that looked just like me.  It took me a few seconds of sniffing and looking and some more sniffing to realize that I was looking at another Puggle.  Just like me!I've been to the puppy park many times and have never met another Puggle.  She and I had a blast running and sniffing and jumping.  We were so excited to meet each other!
In case you can't tell i'm the one on the right.  She was a bit lighter than me.  We ran and ran until we were both worn out. 
And it was time to go home.
But wait...What is this dog?  It looks like a Puggle, but with black fur!  Another Puggle!!! Two in one day.
And then another!  That's Three in one day!  Four if you count me!
What I treat I couldn't believe it.   
These two Puggles were from the same home.  They were a little older than me.  And not quite as handsome. (I'm in the middle of the Puggle sandwich)
Clearly we were all interested in the same thing. (I'm in the middle again)
What a fun Puggle filled day I had a the puppy park.  I hope to see my new friends again soon.

One of my favorite games is to grab a sock (or glove) and run under the bed.  I love to chew on soft things and more than that, I love to be chased.  Here I am enjoying a nice chew on a glove.There's lots of room to hide things under the bed. As you can see, i've done a number on the mattress.
Sometimes daddy joins me under the bed. 
I don't really like it.  This is my spot and he takes up so much room.
And sometimes he takes my toy and taunts me.  It's just mean.
