Well last night I had a super fun time! The Mum took me to a New Year Pawty.. though it wasn’t on New Years Eve or New Years Day, it still was in this New Year of 2009 so it was fun!

Watching Footsball

For a little while I sat with the Hoomans and watched the TV. There was a Footsball game on, the University of Utah won the game! but I didn’t watch too long because I kinda thought it was boring. And I didn’t have any Swiss Army watches to play with either… so I played with Sadie!

Playing with Sadie

Sadie was super fun to play with! She was a rescue dog like me and she got this super great home with the Mum’s lady she works with, and her guy too! And Sadie is fun, she stayed with us a while ago and we got to play at my house, and now we got to play at her new house! They have a super huge back yard and we ran and ran and ran in the snow until we were wet and tired!

Playing with Sadie

And the Hoomans watched us play too and they thought we were really fun to watch. Oh and I only chased one of the kitties once. And the Mum said I wasn’t supposed to chase the kitties, but I did it anyway it’s too hard not to when they run!

Then after the play and the Footsball Sadie and me got to chew pig ears!

Sadie Chewing

And I chewed too, but I kinda had more fun rolling on the pig ear than chewing it!

And we had lots of fun at the Pawty!  The Mum was very happy that I got to come, and so was Sadie! And then on the way home in the car I slept the whole way because I was really super tired.  I hope to go play with Sadie again soon!

Dog Park

Hi Everydoggie!  We had a fun day today. First we went to the Tanner Dog Park and we had lots of fun in the snow!

Dog Park

It was just me and Muffit today, and we got to run and run and play with other dogs and it was really cool fun. The Mum wanted me to post up these pictures so you can see how pretty it was at the park. But I would have posted more me pictures!

Dog Park

The paths are fun and there is lots of snow on the trees.  It snowed all yesterday and we got lots of really fun snow, I like the snow! So instead of New York Yankees tickets we had a great day at the park.

Lily and Pack

Then we went for a really looooong drive and guess what guess what?  We got another foster sister! The Mum is calling her Lily and she is a rough sable collie and she was was found on Friday night by a nice guy who took her in and kept her warm. Because it’s way too super cold outside. She has no microchip and she had no tags on, so we’ll see if we can find her home. But if not, she’s our foster sister for a bit! The Mum posted about her too on Tip Tail about Lily!

So we have a couch upstairs and it’s kinda raggedy and the Mum wants to throw it all away! When I came it didn’t have so many chews on it… but me and Bianca, my old smooth collie foster sister, we used to play tug with it and stuff and so now it’s kinda a bit more chewed than it was.

Me on My Couch Spot

So well I thought the couch would be much more comfy if it had a little nest in the middle of it and so this is what I did. And yeap, above is me laying in my nest spot.

My Couch Spot

Isn’t it comfy! It’s just perfect sized for me! Well and since I made it of course it would be!

Hey everydog and kitty and fuzzy and non-fuzzy. Yappy Howildays to you all, too. The Mum and me haven’t been much on the computer the last few days because she’s been so busy!  But now we get a break and breaks are good, though hopefully the Mum will take me to the park this weekend!

Woof!

So check it out we got a fun new Holidays Present! It’s a new dog bed! Ooo I really like it. When the Mum put it down, I had to jump all over it!

Tatum's New Bed

The Mum says I have to share it with the rests of the pack but Hrmm I dunno about that. I like having it all for myself!

Chewing the Bed

See I can even chew on the corner! The Mum said “no Tatum don’t chew on the corner!” but I like chewing on the corner! I didn’t chew much, though. Just a little bit, and didn’t even get any stuffing out!

Tatum's New Bed

But I could get stuffing out if I wanted to!
I like my new bed. I might share.. if I’m in a sharing mood. Which I usually am not!

Sasha is Happy!

Today we went and visited Sasha! I haven’t told you guys yet but my foster sister Sasha went to live with another foster family and brothers and sister. And she is really happy there. The Mum says she cried a little bit when she dropped Sasha off at the new family, but they are a super nice family and they have three rough collies there already, and Sasha is way happy there!

And I got to play with Sasha’s foster brothers and foster sister! They are super fun and pretty collies and we had a really good time. I like Bonnie, she’s the tricolored girl who likes to run and play with me!  The Mum came too and took these fun pictures of us when we played in the snow.

One of the boy collie’s names is Fletcher, and dangit now I can’t remember the other boy collie’s name! Hrmph! The Mum says she isn’t remembering either oh well I guess we will have to ask again. I just know that they were both fun to play with and chase around!

The Mum thinks that Bonnie is really a pretty girl too! The Mum says she usually doesn’t like the black tris as much as the sables and blues and whites but Bonnie is super pretty! But of course I was the prettiest one of them all!

The Mum and I came home and loaded up these fun pictures on our laptop so we can share them with everyone. Sasha is happy too, and that makes me happy too, and the Mum too. Monday night Sasha is gonna come stay with us again because Tuesday she is going to the doggie doctor to get her teeths cleaned up and find out what the stuff on her nose is. Hrmph well then we get to play some more, yay!

The Mum and I were just watching the weather-guesser on the news and he said that it is supposed to be really cold the next few days here in Utah in Salt Lake City where we live. It’s supposed to get down to four degrees on Saturday or Sunday!

Me Curled Up

And so to show how I get all curled up to stay warm, I thought I’d show you some pictures! This first one is of me. The Mum says me, Levi, Chase and Muffit can all curl up really nice. But Lucy and Angel can’t really, they just don’t bend. So the Mum and the Dad put blankets on them and get snuggly beds for them so they can stay warm too.

Levi Curled Up

If you don’t know how to curl up maybe there is a toll free number you can call to learn! It makes my belly super warm, and I put my tail over my nose too, to keep my nose warm.

Muffit Curled Up

Levi also knows how to curl up really tight into a ball. Us collies are good at it usually. And border collies, the Mum says, are even better because they are so flexible. But being flexible isn’t all that important… I like being a collie even if we are not as flexible as border collies!  Okay okay… being flexible is kinda important, and for collies me and Levi are pretty flexible and we have pretty good bodies that let us do lots of way fun stuff!

Muffit is kinda silly when he is all curled up, because he does it and keeps his eyes open sometimes and peers at the Mum when she is taking pictures. LOL Muffit is a silly border collie boy! He can curl up into a teeny tiny ball though, because he’s so small, he makes a very small ball.

Can you curl up into a small ball to keep warm? It’s not really that cold in our house though either… the Mum wants it colder, the Dad wants it warmer. So it changes quite a bit. Oh but the Mum is being sick now and that’s why I haven’t posted much lately anyway because she hasn’t left the laptop on for me to post with. But that’s okay, I have been curling up with her and keeping her warm, too!

The Mum is telling me that Sasha’s medical bills might get higher after we go into the doggie doctor to find out what she has. And the Mum is afraid that Utah Collie Rescue doesn’t have enough money in their bank account to pay for what she needs done. So she set up this way cool donation widget thingy so everyone can help! And if you want to see it about her you can go to Utah Collie Rescue’s Sasha Post!

If you can help out even a small amount for Sasha, maybe $10.00 even, that would be so super nice! If you can’t… maybe you could post about her and ask other people to come by and help? Utah Collie Rescue is a 501c3 (whatever that means) official snazzy rescue so all contributions are tax deductible!

Thanks everydoggie and everykitty and everyrattie and everyother fuzzy and non fuzzy!

It finally snowed! I love the snow, ’cause it’s nice and cool and I can run and run and not get too hot and stinky! Though I never really get stinky I just get hot and my tongue hangs out a bit but it’s okay I’m cute and so is my tongue!

So check out these fun pictures of the snow yesterday.  I really wanted Sasha to play with me and she did! She didn’t run around too much. The Mum says she probably doesn’t have too much energies because she still isn’t feeling well and she’s too skinny too.  But I think with more time she’ll run with me even more!

Isn’t Sasha pretty! Though the Mum and Dad say that she might go stay with another family instead of us. I would be sad because I like her a lot. But if she gets another foster family who can spend more hooman time with her, I guess that’d be okay for her. But I’d miss her I think she is super fun.

We had some good fun running in the snow. There’s lots more snow now… but the Mum hasn’t taken more pictures of us yet. She better soon.  We have fun and like to run and run and chase and run!

Here is my big yawn too that the Mum took when I was looking over Lucy’s dinner. LOL I wanted her dinner!  But the Mum didn’t give me any of her dinner. Oh well. Maybe I’ll sneak some today! I want food but I don’t really want any Phentermine!

The Mum says that next Friday we are gonna go to a place called Ogden for some super fun agility training too. I can’t wait! I like agility training!

I hope everydog is having a good weekend!
