Sloan

She's been gone a year.  I still think about her all the time and I miss her.  Love you baby girl. Kim and Sloan Christmas 2006, Newport Beach CA

I miss her

The gril (not girl but gril)

She loved to drink the water from the bath tub spicket.  She would go and stand there and I could hear her tags clinking up against the bathtub.  Neither of our boys do that.

Sloan - summer/fall 1996.  See that look in her eyes?  She was wild!  I loved her little nub tail though!

Sloan -June 1996.  She was about 6 weeks old in this shot.

Merry Christmas from Sam & Buddy

Hes actually not singing... hes barking because that is what he always does when I turn the camera on. Sammy is singing along with the Chrimstas tunes.... I think at the time I was listening to James Taylor's Christmas cd.  Funny that that is what it looks like and I am very lucky to have gotten this shot.

Buddy is laying on his dog bed watching me cook dinner.

Buddy is relaxing in front of the Christmas tree on the dog bed he got for his birthday.

Buddy loves his birthday present, the monkey

Buddy carries his monkey all over the house.  He makes me laugh! Buddy loves and I mean loves his monkey.  He actually loves both of the monkeys and if Sam has the other one, he takes it from him.  (Sam sometimes pays him back and takes it back from Buddy.)  Occasionally there is a tug a war contest too:

See.... he really does love the monkey!

Happy 12th Birthday Sam Sam

Sam Sam the birthday boy! Buddy is enjoying his tasty kong filled with peanut butter and a treat.  He has decided he likes birthdays!

Sammy turned 12 today and he and Buddy had a party.   Click here to watch the youtube video of Sammy opening his present.  Somehow he knows how to open presents and he is really good at it.  It is fun to watch but does become a problem at Christmas time and any other time there are wrapped presents around that aren't Sammy's.  He thinks they are all his and there he should be able to open them all.

Both boys enjoyed their treats too!

Dog running with Buddy and Dog walking with Sam Sam

Sammy is very tired Buddy and I had a great run this morning and he is now passed out on the couch behind me.  Sam Sam loves this cooler weather and couldn't be happier out running around in it.  Although when I took his collar off when we got to the driveway, he galloped towards the house because he knew it was time for breakfast!  Unfortunately Buddy will be pretty unhappy soon.... it is doggie bath day at our house this morning.  That's not his favorite thing.
