Strreeeetch!

It's a cold, drippy, dark day out.  Perfect for stretching out on the couch!



I'm baaaaaaack!

Mom and dad were gone for a bit, so I wasn't able to get on to blog.

They were gone longer than usual, but I wasn't worried cuz I got to make new friends and play the whole time. 

When dad leaves, Millie usually stares at the door for a while (awwww):

I, on the other hand, get to go play with my new friends at the new daycare mom's taking me to.  She says its closer to her work, so easier for her to get me and take me to work with her 1/2 day. 

This morning I was tired and wanted to stay sleeping in the warm truck. 

But as soon as I saw some of the nice people there, I got excited.



Here's me after a whole day of playing (nice picture, mom!)

Tomorrow, I'm going in to work 1/2 day and will get to see my furriend, Chesty.  Hopefully, mom will get some better pictures (she blames the camera!)

Wordless Wednesday!

Fall Hiking an New Furriends!

Last week, mom and dad took me hiking at Tiger mountain.  It was a beautiful day.

Up at the top, I got my snack:

 Posing with mom:

Today was another beautiful day (although a little chilly), so we went for another hike, this time to Greenwater trail.  I liked his hike cuz there were lots of horse apple snacks along the way!

 Then, after the hike, we went and visited some of mom & dad's friends, and I got to make a new furriend.

Here's me and Cooper, the beagle.   

We're the same age and distant cousins.  Can you see the resemblance?

Flashback Furrrriday!!!!!!!

There's a bit of a chill in the air now, so mom got out my fleece to keep me warm. 

Remember how well it fit last year?

Mom really needs to stop shrinking all my stuff!!!!

I could barely get it over my head!!  How the heck am I going to stay warm this winter!?!

Luckily, mom planned ahead and got me a cool sweater from Chilly Dogs.   

 My sis, Nala, got one last year and mom thought she looked very warm in it.

Aren't we the most stylin' Ridgebacks ever!?

Wordless Wednesday

(mom apologizes for the delay in blogging, as she has been 'under the weather')

The Verdict is In!

Mom let us play with the new toy, the Bumi. 

If we had thumbs, me and Memphis would give it 2 thumbs up!  It took and licken' and kept on ticken!

Durable Dog Toys

I've had a couple of these rubber sticks that I take to the dog park for me and Memphis to play with.  However, they don't seem to stand up to the beating we give them.

The one on the left  is one we played with for the first time today.  It didn't take long before it was missing the top couple inches.  Mom doesn't recommend that one.

The one on the right was given to me by my pop pop for my birthday 2 months ago.  It has stood up to some heavy duty playing, but is now missing the top and bottom part.  That one seems better cuz it lasted a while and we still like playing with it.

Today she bought us this Bumi:

It's supposed to be "guaranteed to last," and if it doesn't, they'll either replace it or give mom her $$ back (one time).  It's made by West Paw Design, which is based in mom's college town of Bozeman, MT.  Isn't it beautiful there?  We hope to visit next summer.

So, we'll see what happens to the Bumi after me and Memphis play a few rounds of tug with it!!!  If any of you have recommendations for tough toys, mom would be thrilled to hear about them!

I wanted to end with a picture showing my support of Livestrong Day:
