Doggie Happy hour
Last week since the weather was a little more comfortable than it's been all summer we decided to take advantage of it and take Daisy to Doggie Happy hour. Her friends Murray and Ethel joined us for some tasty treats and cool beverages. It was a lot of fun, we'll have to go again sometime.

Daisy in the water
I can't believe it has been so long since I posted!!
A couple weeks ago I took Daisy to the Shirlington dog park for a doggie play date. It was much warmer than it had been as of late so I put her in the water to cool her off fully expecting her to head immediately for shore, give how much she likes being wet. It must have been refreshing because she stayed in the water and even sat down in it! Not the reaction I was expecting at all!

This is SO sad!
Purloined pug tale leaves owners sad
DALLAS, Texas (AP) -- The holidays were sad enough for Kim Velevis and her husband after their lovable pug "Scooter" dug its way out of the backyard and disappeared on Christmas Eve.Rob Velevis holds a laptop with a photo of Scooter while Kim holds the letter, cash from an anonymous source.But the real blow came with the new year: A letter from an anonymous woman who had found the friendly dog and gave it to her daughter as a Christmas present. To compensate for Velevis' loss, a $20 bill was enclosed."The puppy has a different name now, but he has plenty of food and toys. My daughter adores him. He sleeps with her every night," said the letter, which arrived Wednesday.Velevis, 28, said she feels for the guilt-ridden woman, who described herself as a nearly penniless alcoholic. But she wants the dog back."We knew the first thing our Scooter would have done is find people," Velevis said. "He must have wandered up to this sick lady who, in desperation and in an attempt to fix her own life, ruined ours."Velevis, who is 51/2 months pregnant with her first child, said she and her husband brought the wrinkly faced pooch home in July 2006 when he was about 8 weeks old.Scooter could still be nearby. The typewritten letter, which carried a Tulsa, Oklahoma, postmark, said the woman found the dog while visiting her daughter in Dallas. She wrote that her ex-husband has custody of the girl.The woman, who discovered an address on the pug's collar, described a series of difficulties in her life."I lost custody because of problems I had with alcohol, and I have lost everything else," she wrote. "I have been sober for 6 months, and I am trying to turn myself around, but I have lost everything. My little girl wanted a pug dog like your little dog (very much!)"The woman wrote that she cannot ask for forgiveness, "but I do want you to know that he does have people who love him and are taking care of him."Velevis said she has no interest in pursuing charges against the woman and would be glad to purchase the woman's daughter another dog.

Daisy swims (very unwillingly)
I kept hoping that Daisy would eventually like to swim. It'd help her keep cool in the hot summer months. I was thinking maybe she just didn't like cold water, since her previous swimming experiences had been in Donner lake which is about 68 degrees most of the time. A couple weeks ago Cate brought her into her swimming pool, which was quite comfortable (don't be fooled by the fact that Cate is wearing a jacket). As you can see by Daisy's expression, swimming does not appeal to her.

Daisy's new outfit
My sister recently started working at Banfield which you may know is the veterinary office connected to Petsmart. Since they are in fact connected to Petsmart, she is able to get a discount at petsmart and brought Daisy this little outfit on her last visit. I don't think Daisy cared for it much, she ran and hid when my sister put it on her. I peronally love the hat.

Crouching tiger hidden pug
Daisy looks so tiny in this picture (at least to me) maybe it is just a sign it is time to cut the lawn!

Caricature of Daisy
Over the weekend we took Daisy to the pet fiesta, which is basically like a street festival for pets. They had someone doing caricatures of the pets, so of course we had to get one of Daisy!

Daisy's new bed
Yesterday I took Daisy to the Super pet Expo at the Dulles expo center. It wasn't as big or exciting as I hoped, but I did find Daisy this new plus bed. She loves it!
