Bella vs. The Evil Snake

I don't know about everyone else, but I have a little ritual that I do before laying down on my dog bed. I do ten circles and trample down my pillow to make it nice and comfortable. At the same time I'm making sure that there aren't any scary things lurking in there that might bite me on the butt. My parents think I'm a bit neurotic because, unlike my ancestors the wolves, I live a very cushy life and there isn't anything dangerous in our house.

Guess what? THEY WERE WRONG!!! Check out the big, bug-eyed snake that was waiting to kill me! Fortunately, I acted real fast and flipped him through the air before trying to bite his face off. Whew, crisis averted.

Day 11: Things I'm Grateful For

As promised, I'm counting down the 12 days to Christmas by listing all the things that I am grateful for. So today, day #11, I am thankful for my stinky, smelly rope toy. I like to jam it into Dad's leg while he sits at the computer so he'll stop working and play with me. I also like to bait him by dropping it at his feet. Then, when he goes to reach for it, I yank it away REAL FAST! Unfortunately, this game tires me out more than it does him, so I usually need a nap afterwards.

Although my rope toy is one of my favorites, I'm grateful for all my toys. I just wish that doggies everywhere were as lucky, and I plan to do more to help my fellow canines in 2008.

Toy of the Month

I don't know about everybody else, but I like to keep things fresh by rotating my toys every few weeks. Lately, it's been my Wubba that keeps me company. It was a present from my Grandma Laura, which makes it doubly special. Speaking of grandmas....my other grandma from New York is coming this weekend! Yahoo! I love having visitors, especially ones that bring me presents and shower me with treats (hint, hint).
