Awards & Pictures of traveling to Western Kentucky

Award from Thor! Thank you so much Thor, we love you!

Mom finally let me blog, thank you so much mommy! I am posting pictures of us in the Jeep while we traveled to Western Kentucky to visit our grandparents.

Me and Cassie got to seat with Allie and Dale. It was so much fun!


Daddy talking on the phone while traveling, of course he heard it from Mommy. Mommy doesn't like when he talks and drives.

Okay, Allie gave me some attention between reading her book and listening to her ipod.

I got the most attention from my new sis, Cassie.

Cassie and I are very good pals. I think she thinks I am her mamma.


She kept trying to clean me and give me kisses.

Baylee was lucky and got the back all to herself and like to tease me about how she got more room then me. I told her I was fine cuz I was by Cassie.

I was very clean when we arrived at our grandparents, Cassie made sure I looked my best!

I am so happy to be back blogging cuz I sure missed all my friends!

Friends she promises to let us blog soon! xoxox Sami I miss my FRIENDS...please don't forget about us :(

New Family Member, Cassie..the Cat

Mommy, Dale and Allie went to Petsmart without me, can you believe that, visiting a pet store with out taking the pets? I am confused. Then they came home with a new friend for us. Her name is Cassie and she is a 12 week old kitten. Woodstock Animal Rescue saved her and we made her apart of our family. Mom says she is Dale's kitty but we will all get to love her. In the pictures she in brother Dale's room. Mom took the pictures because I have only been able to see her once. I was told she has to get use to her new environment and she will be introduced to us slowly, not fair. I promised Mommy we would give her lots of love and stay calm but she still won't let us play with her.

This is brother Dale and all he wanted was to rescue a kitty for his 17th birthday. Of course his birthday isn't till November 6 but he spotted this kitty in need of a home and couldn't stop talking about her to mom.

I hear she is very playful and energetic so I am sure Casie and I will have lots of fun together and I can't wait till Mommy lets us play with her. Does any of my friends have kitties? xoxox Sami

Hi Friends, What heartworm prevention do you use?

I am feeling better today and ate some chicken and a piece of ham it was yummy. My was so happy and she said I was such a good girl! Last night after she gave me my medicine she was worried cause burbed up a little so she called the Dr today and they said to me 1/2 dose of the Panacur, that yulky white medicine that is the most nasty stuff I have ever tasted but I took it like a good girl but I sure let her know that it tasted nasty with the face I made after she squirted it down my throat. I have even played today and has mommy throw my tennis ball a few times in the house. My says that I no longer can play with my balls outside because if it is true I have whipworm then it lives for 5+ years in the soil, so it is very important that all poop does not stay in the yard and she will be right behind us with a plastic baggie every time, like I won't get no privacy at all, usually she picks up every few days but not now she says. I never poop on my walkies or at other places I go, only in my back yard. Okay I may be strange but even when I visited my Grandmas I will wait for days till I get back in my yard, oh how I love my yard where nobody can see my booty due it's business! Hee hee booty business, hardy har!


Tomorrow is clean the back yard and mommy is getting rid of all our backyard toys but not to worry she say and promised to buy me new toys. She order us new shoes that we will wear outside and anytime we go out of the house. Below is the picture of them:

They are Ruff Wear Bark' n Boots. She got them at Backyard K-9 She got Baylee a pair too, in the pretty red. Baylee is getting poop inspection done too just to make sure she isn't getting sick. I can't wait to get them cause Mommy won't let me go for walkies until I have them and then germ-e's won't get on my paws and in my mouth when I lick my paws! Great thinking mommy. I wish they had the shoes in pretty pink color. Now that would be stylish, huh?

Friend I need to know what kind of Heartworm prevention are you on? I am on Wormshield which protects from heartworms along with hook and roundworms. This is what my doggie Dr. prescribes but Mommy has done research and she found 2 different kinds. The first is Intercepor, which protects against the same worms but also whipworm and then the other is Sentinel which also protects against the same worms as Interceptor but also has added flea protection. Do any of you guys have experience with any of these heartworm prevention medications? Mommy is so concerned that if I do have whipworms that they are very hard to get rid of because re -infestation is so easy since the worm eggs survive in the ground for 5+ years. So friends I am asking you to let me know if you have any experience with these medications? I am a golden and love to chase and put things in my mouth and now mommy says no playing with my toys outside but I think she would let me if I am protected against those nasty whipworms! Please let me know Thanks Friends!, you're the best!

I am feeling better today..

Hi friends! Sorry I haven't been blogging lately but I have been sick. I went to the doggie doctor yesterday. Mom was worried I wasn't eating and I had the poops. I lost 4 pounds since 3 months ago when I had my 6 month check up. The doctor is blaming it on the time I went to the doggie park Tom Sawyer because she has seen a lot of dogies getting sick from park. Mommy told her she only took me once and after the giardia scare she would not let me go back. After the trip to the park she took me to the dr. then cause I had the poops afterwards,but then I was treated for a bacteria infection. Oh, I really liked that park too. The doctor said she doesn't take her doggies to the doggie park ever. The park seemed nice and well keep. Hoomans cleaned up after their doggies and members only to get with security code to .I guess no place is safe from those cootie worm eggs. Mommy says she will just have to get us slippers that we where only outside and no shoes allowed inside the house. See all the medicine I have to take but mommy hasn't gave me the 2 of the meds cause they are for an upset tummy and I have ate something today so she says as long as I eat I don't have to take them. Well enough about the park. The doctor came to the conclusion I might have whip worm cause she seen a lot of cases from the park. It appears this meanie of a worm is hard to find and wasn't to be found anywhere in my poop.

Well the doctor did find anything in my poop but still insisted I take all this medicine. Panacur for 3 days and again 3 weeks from now and then again 3months from now, along with Metronidazole 2x daily and then more pills to make my stomach feel better so I can eat. I really hate that Panacur and try to spit it out...yulky...

Mommy gets upset when she gets a big bill and they didn't find anything in my poop but give me medicines for so call worms. She says, I am feeling better so that must be the problem. I am happy yo report Baylee is fine and still eats like a horse..sorry Baylee it is true.

So friends please be careful when you go to parks or other places other doggies have left their poop behind. Wash your paws afterwards and don't eat the dirt...I don't eat dirt but my balls roll around in it. No place safe for us doggies...the doggie doctor agreed but she also told Mommy what fun is it if a dog can't be a dog. Any suggestions on this matter? Please tell my mommy where she can find some comfy and stylish doggie shoes for us? xoxoxo Sami
