I have a sister!
Posted Thursday, January 7, at 2:38 AM
I guess how it happened one day was that my human's roommate called my human and asked him how to get to Columbus. She had seen a puppy on this computer thing and decided that she wanted to pick it up.

A few hours later my human's roommate was back from Columbus with a brown and white puppy.

She brought her home and the next thing I knew, I had a sister!

Or is it step-sister? You know, since I have one human and now the roommate belonged to this pup. I wondered if the pup was old enough to have the responsibility of having a human, but I'd been able to handle her pretty well. And I needed a break from taking care of two humans, so whatever this sister could help with was going to be appreciated.

The pup told me that in the old apartment where she lived, they were calling her "Daisy Sue" or something like that but she wasn't fond of the name. I also knew my human's roommate wasn't especially fond of it, so I figured it was going to change pretty soon.

Well, the new sis can sometimes be kind of a aggressive pup. She just walks up and starts chewing on my dog tags! I'm not going to have any of that! And I let her know it.

You've probably noticed the picture my human took. The pup is supposed to be a Boglen Terrier, a mix of Beagle and Boston Terrier. I don't know, I don't see much Boston Terrier, do you?

Well, anyway, I guess my human's roommate noticed that sometimes the pup would just come right up to me and darn near tackle me because she wants to play so badly!

I guess that inspired her human to give her this name:

Calamity Jane.

Trust me, it's appropriate. We all all her "C.J."

I took my human to his hometown for the holidays. We were gone a little over two weeks. And when we came back, C.J. was as big as I am!

She's only six months old. If she grows any more, she'll be able to play basketball!

And if she keeps playing aggressive, I think I'm in trouble.

Anyone got any advice?

Alpha dogs are made, not born

I'm not a fan of this Michael Vick person. Why should I be? What if those dogs he had been putting into fights had been my friends? Dogs are trained how to act by humans. When dogs are vicious, it's humans who made them that way. But humans sometimes train their dogs to do bad things without realizing it. A lot of times, it's because they mistake us for little humans...

Why do humans run away?
Posted Thursday, July 30, at 10:18 PM

I was sitting at my house one day, lying on the back of my couch looking out my window when my human comes back from work. Even though he's usually not back until after midnight, he stays awake for a while, no matter how much I try to coax him to go to bed. So I take him out for a walk, hoping it will wear him down a little...

First entry: Taking my human on vacation.
Posted Thursday, July 16, at 1:06 AM

I got to go on vacation last week and so I got in the back seat of my car and pursuaded my human to drive anywhere he wanted to go (I know you're not supposed to let the human lead but I figured he had a better idea where he was going than I did). As it turned out, he took me to the dogs that own his parents. Chip is a dachshund-chihuahua mix and Sugar and Cookie are poodles. There was also one of those evil cats, who the humans called "Mama Kitty."...
