Hello.

Did you hear the GREAT news? I’m PureWow’s Pup of the Year! I can’t believe I won! Of all the wonderful pups to choose from, it was ME! You chose ME! You are all the best friends on Facebook a pup ever had!

I’m so happy about being Pup of the Year.

Thank you for voting for me. Thank you for liking my pictures and my adventures.

But guess what?

I have a little secret. Shhhh.

I really like being Pup of the Year, but I don’t want to wear a crown.

See the crumbs on my lips? BRIBERY.

They can bribe me to wear a crown if they want to. It is cute. I think I even look handsome in it.

And I like cookies.

But.

I don’t want to smile while I wear a crown, not even for cookies. That is too much to ask.

Why?

Because, how can a pup smile, eat a cookie AND wear a crown? ALL at the same time? I don’t know.

Bah. I can’t see.

Thanks again.

I hope to be the best Pup of the Year ever. I will make you so proud of me.

Let’s face it. Dogs get messy and I am no exception. Typically I’m not very high maintenance…I’d be perfectly okay with smelling like the dog that I am. My family makes me go get my hair done every month and likes me to smell like flowers and stuff. My sister found all sorts of products that pampered pets might like…even though I don’t personally feel the need to own things like blackberry vanilla magic deodorizing spray. However, I don’t think I’d be mad about having a massaging brush around the house…

PS: My sister does Gather posts for my mom’s blog over here if you want to see more things she has gathered!

My brother put this on me and I’m not sure how I feel about it. Thoughts?

Well, I’ve prepared my Christmas list. This is it. My Christmas dream. Do I need these things? No. Would I be just as pleased to be given a cardboard box to rip to shreds? Certainly. But nevertheless, I really like these things. Well, most of them. I’m not sure about the sweater. My mom wants me to wear a sweater but I don’t think I like sweaters. I do think I’d look nice in this red one though so maybe I will consider it…

My mommy got me a new bed and I really like it. This is me laying on it.

My mom called me a ‘flokati rug’ today. What does that mean?

UPDATE: She showed me this sheepskin rug below and now I see the resemblance. I’ll consider it a compliment.
