The life and times of me, Aime. I am a Bouvier des Flandres, aka Frontier Takes Aim at Susants, and my goal in life is to play, meet people, play and oh, did I say play? Oh yea, I can’t forget to eat and sleep too.
When I was born there were 10 of us. Boy, my mom was a busy lady… that’s a lot of milk. Anyway, I would love to hear what my siblings are up to these days. Trouble like me I hope.
Not a big fan of summer... what is up with all the hot air. "Arrrg! Don't like it, bring back the cold, soft stuff." My mom is always telling me to drink lots of water, I like water... its best when I get to swim in it and chase the sprinklers.
Sacramento River
We went to the river one day, "Eww, dirty, but fun." That guy on the car, oh boy did I want to chase him but I can't swim so well and my mom puts me on a leash so I don't go to far out in the water. "That sucks mom."
Modeling huh, "ya,I'm a model". hahahaha. No really, my mom needed a stand in for my handsome friend, Kobe. This guy named Josh was going to photograph Kobe so mom said, "lets use aim for stand in". Mom says she loved the way they turned out and the best part is they weren't planned, it just happened. We sent the photos to my other mommas, Lee and Sue so they can see how much I've grown up.
Yep, there we are... me and two of my sisters Lillith and Annie. I'm wearing the green ribbon. There were 10 of us and I hope I get to meet up with some of the others soon. I met my brother at the Bouvier Specialty in April. We both won on the same day, it was so cool. I'll tell you about it another day. Mark's in sunny SoCal chillin' out with the chicks. Lillith lives in Missouri with her other Bouv friends and I might go to Vermont soon. I hope to see her there. Annie doesn't live far from me, I chatted her up back in April at the Sacramento Dog Show, she is a blast! My mom says maybe we can meet up with her again soon when it is not so hoootttt and play! "Yea, that would be cool!!!"
Boy, was my mom nervous. But we did it, and I had fun. There were many bouviers there and I met many new friends, including 2 pugs. Funny faces pugs have but they are sure a lot fun! My weekend started with a lot of brushing, brushing and more brushing. And scissors, scissors and blah, blah, blah. That is how I feel when I'm on that grooming table thing. "Stand stay" says mom over and over again. Only once in awhile she tells me what a good girl I am.
Hello, mom, a little more praise please."Arrrgg!"
Anyway, check out all the photos of me, Juno (my big-sis), Johnny (my big-bro) and Mark my littermate. "Thanks Rebecca for the photos!"
Snow, snow, snow. I love the snow! My mom kind of hates the dingle-berries that get stuck on my legs. But she lets me play in it anyway. Yeaaa! I love the stuff.
Okay, so it was only a little over 1 mile, but it was sooooo much fun. The day started out with JK being bummed all the new snow melted so he couldn't ride that skate-thing. It was uncommonly sunny in Tahoe that day and then he said, "Lets go hike around the lake." "Whoooo-hoooo!" I love going on walks. "I'm in."
So the first thing I had to do was cross a bridge over the water. SCARY!!! I could see through the walkway and I didn't like it. Uh-ah, no way, but mom said "your ok" and guess what, I did it! It was so much fun, we walked along on the trail and down to the lake and I discovered the lake. Oh my my, that was cold water. I know what water is. I drink it, it good. My mom makes me get in the tub cuz she says I smell, the water is warm and it feels good. I don't drink this water though, I did that once and, "Ick!" I don't know why my mom doesn't like my smell, I do.
Hey, check out my photos from my first real hike. I can't wait for next time.
On October 11, I went with my new friend Judah to play in this seasons first snow fall. My new friend, my mom likes to call him “Judah-dog” for some reason. Oh wait, off track already. As I was saying, the guys wanted to snowskate (not sure what this means really) but mom said I would have fun in the snow.
Boy, did I ever! Ouch, it was cold. That stuff didn’t smell right, I mean it didn’t have a smell at all… weird, but it tastes good.
So far everything has a smell.
food (mine & the kitty’s)… more on kitty next time
couch (joe calls it a daven-something, mom says its cuz he’s from the east coast)
my butt
kittys butt
the dirt
the sticks, I love the sticks. I try to eat but mom takes them away while she trys to convince me she is more interesting than chewing on the stick. hehehe
Black-Diamond Dog
My friend Judah, he’s a mountain dog who lives in Tahoe. My mom says he can teach me a lot and I should look to him to learn how to play in the snow. She says maybe some day I can be a black-diamond dog… not sure what that means, but that’s what mom said. “Mom, promise.”
Mom says I am hooked up in the social networking world (still dont know what that means). She took some video of me and Judah, it’s on the YouTube. You should check it out sometime.
