Good morning Cape Breton.Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
So yesterday the Big Guy decided that he would take me to the Dog Park. Which was fun. Don't get me wrong. I'm all about playing in the snow. But he just sat on the bench. His ass got cold so he wanted leave after 20 minutes.
I had quite a bit of fun. That was until it was time to leave. As we were leaving, someone else showed up. The Big Guy was not staying.
You could also go to some pet store where they were offering free pictures with Santa. The Big Guy just wasn't "feeling it", so we went home.
When we got home, the Big Guy had to go shopping for a few items.
Not
One
Treat
Can you believe that? If Tonya had went, she would have got me SOMETHING.
The Big Guy... NOTHING.
I sniffed and sniffed inside the shopping bags. But there was nothing in them for me. I couldn't believe it. I was stunned.
Well, not surprised though. He rarely thinks of me that way. But he takes me for the occasional drive and a walk. SO... I think I will keep him around for a bit.

Good morning Cape Breton.

My non-furry Memere is safe and sound, once again, she is home in Moncton New Brunswick. She left Tonya this wonderful Sunflower Afghan. I know she is going to be showing it off at work all day today.
We went to the dog park yesterday and as you can see, I got up on the picnic table. The Big Guy was kinda worried about how I would get down.
No worries, I jumped right off the table.
It was fun being at the dog park. I got to meet a few dogs that I never seen before. Although there was this one brute. He went after this much smaller dog. So they left the dog park. I know who SHOULD have left and it wasn't the smaller dog.
That dog come sniffing around me and I wasn't concerned about him being a bully. I was much larger than him. But it never came to that. Eventually the owner left the dog park.
Afterwards we went to the Four Paw Pet Spa. I knew that it was bath time. I didn't fight it this time. I know during previous visits, I would fight it. But in the end, I still got a bath. Besides, the bath isn't so bad.
In the end, I was smelling pretty good. I've got conditioner in my fur, so it's all good. My fur is nice and soft and I smell pretty good too.
Then, later on, Elisha and Bryson came for a visit. I was really good this time. I didn't scare Bryson too much. He did make a comment on how I was a really big dog. But that's because he's so little. So of course I look rather large to him.

Good morning Cape Breton.Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
Yesterday, was the day that we celebrated my non-furry Uncle Terry's birthday. Something that the Big Guy and Tonya doesn't have very often is potatoes. Well, when they were opening the bag, I really wanted to know, what was in the bag. Turns out, it was potatoes. So they gave me one. I ran outside with it and started chewing on the potatoe. I didn't eat it all. I left it on the deck. I would imagine, that they are going to "dispose" of the potatoe when they think that I'm not looking.
Yesterday morning, the Big Guy had the turkey all cooked by 7:30 in the morning. Then we went for a walk.
When we got home, he removed all the meat from the turkey, including the skin. He put all the bones and the skin, back in the turkey roaster to boil them down more. Then he put some of the bone in the green bin, but all the smaller bones and such, he put out for the crows and sea gulls to eat. I watched them as they were flying down and gobbling the stuff up.
Later on, Terry, Haas, Craig and Elaine showed up. They had some turkey and the fixings... Tonya asked the Big Guy if I could have some mashed potatoes and veggies. He said that there was nothing in them that was bad for me. So, she mixed it all in my food bowl. Oh my... It was so yummy. No gravy though as there was onions in the gravy and onions are really bad for me.
But, yesterday the Big Guy took me to the dog park. I had the whole park to myself for about a 1/2 hour. Eventually I had some new friends that came by and I stayed for another hour.
Then we went to the Dog Spa where I got washed down. I got into the mud at the dog park. I think that I was going to the spa even if I didn't get into the mud. When I got home, Tonya brushed me a few times to get a lot of hair off my body.
Then, last night, we sat out on the deck and she brushed me again. Of course, more hair came off my body. She threw it off the deck so that I didn't try to eat it.
It's raining out this morning. I think they are going to walk me this evening, after they get home from work. I guess we will see.

Good morning Cape Breton.

Did you ever get the idea that flash photography is just something to piss you off?
Why didn't he take it at this other angle?
Tonya and the Big Guy take me for walks. Well I can pull REALLY hard. So much so that I can just about take the Big Guy right off his feet. They have friends, Tammy and Jim. They seen them walking me a few times and have told them about this pinch collar.
So they got a lend of it yesterday.
It doesn't fit very well.
Then again it's also made to fit a smaller dog.
The Big Guy was laughing and laughing as he was trying to get this new collar over my head.
Well that didn't work.
So they went to the store and guess what I got... Yup... a new pinch collar.
The Big Guy said that it made a world of difference with me. I was no longer trying to pull so hard.
You can see why. But I have to learn how to behave like a "normal" dog when I am outside. I can't be dashing and running around. The Big Guy figures that this is going to make our walks so much better from now on.
But as a treat, they took me to the dog park. YIPPEE!
I got to run around with my other dog friends! Tonya held the camera button down and a lot of pictures were taken at once.
If you click on any of the pictures, it goes full screen. That allows you to see me a lot better!
But I was the BIGGEST dog at the dog park yesterday. Everyone was so impressed with me. They all said that I have HUGE paws. Which is true. I do have very big paws.
HELLO!
My eyes are up here.
Bye bye fur now.
