Smuggler busted!

I suppose everyone is familiar with the love Golden Retrievers have for sticks. Throw them and they will fetch them, and when they get tired they start chewing on sticks. Emma is fanatic when it comes to sticks. She even carries one during walks, when we go out or come back home, etc. But the rule is "no sticks in the house" so she drops it at the door.

Well today I thought I really placed it outside, near the door. But as soon as we got in the house, Emma fled to the bedroom. I know she loves our bed so I assumed she wanted to take a nap. But something told me there is something fishy about her behavior, so I went to check. The stick was there, and she was chewing on it :D Smuggler busted!

And then her daddy told me "come on, her stick is like internet for us, it's her joy and pleasure, her hobby, give it back to her and we will clean after" No wonder she is daddy's girl!

Mom, how could you????

It was already late night when we left the park. So you understand why it happened.

So when the time came for us to leave, Mrs Pavel and mom were still talking and we took off for a final running round. Mom called Emma, "I" showed up, mom was talking to Mrs Pavel and didn't even look when she put the collar around my neck...And suddenly Mrs Pavel starts calling Blanca, tail wave....tail wave. ...Guess what? Mom had Blanca!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG COME ON, CAN'T YOU EVEN LOOK, MOM!?!?!?!?!?!? I finally came and...oh well, the last is irrelevant. Both mom and Mrs Pavel were laughing because they did not realize Blanca came, not me!

So this brings me to : MOM HOW COULD YOU???

 

Matria 

Present: new duck v1

When mom came home from work, I was asleep. But oh was I happy to see she got something for me! A DUCK!

Photos

And a video:



The duck is called duck v1 (as in version1) because that duck got rid of the nice ribbon and the flower is ...well...a bit chewed up.

Pics of Emma sleeping :)

Could not help myself, but the photos were a bit ruined by the fact I had to use the flashlight in spite of bright daily light in the room. Emma woke up :(

The bed belongs to her by the way. She sleeps on it mainly during the day. At night she prefers our bed, or when she gets too hot she sleeps next to our bed, by my side :)

Playing with a toddler :)

The baby was younger than me, just 1 year old (I am a month older than him hehe) and nearly as tall as me. Needless to say he even fed me, much to the delight of his grandparents and mom, who were just awwwwwwww and ohhhhhhhhh seeing how cute we interacted. I payed maximum attention how to get the small bits of food from his tiny tiny hands! Mom knew I do this, and the grandpa of the kid remarked a human could not get food so gentle!!!!! I was extremely praised for how well behaved I was!

When mom leashed me to go home, the baby grabbed her hand and wanted to leave with us! He could not say Emma but he was calling me "mama".

And this brings us to another point - mom forgot to bring camera for the nth time! Geez. Short term memory loss, eh?

Celebrating a year since Emma became a member of our family

And what a year it has been!
We are forever grateful to Mrs And Mr Maghiari of Mediguard Kennel for giving us the most adorable puppy ever!

Emma is perfect, she is our little princess, spoiled not just by us, but by everyone (or almost everyone) she meets! She is extremely friendly, she loves to be petted and she loves to play football, fetch, tug-of-war, search the toy/treat, but most of all she loves to cuddle up with us.

Too lazy to update

As you can figure out, we are too lazy to update. Besides the weather is great, so we spend countless hours outside, much to my delight.
