A big lick to everyone!

"Sissy....."

The reason why we posed was .....

We just came back from the groomer!

See...... many humans say new born human pup smells so good..

Guess what? We're just like these human pups.

Mom and dad think I Pinot looks like a pup again.. so they call me

Pinot (The) Baby instead of Pinot (The) Boy!

To avoid yucky sticky salt (to melt snow) we get on our paws from the pavement,

dad asked the groomer girl C to trim our paws this time.

I give one more BIG lick to my sissy, mom, dad

and YOU !!

Have a great weekend, everyone!!

Album 2010 No.1

***** Fetch in the snow! *****

is fun BUT it is not easy work!

"My friend was about to be a frozen frisbee!"

Brrrrrr....

Let me dig him from this side.

After my hard work, I found yourself in the snow, not my frisbee.

Grrrrr... Handsome me had such a bad hair day. :(

***** Album 2010 *****

We thought it would be nice to share our album from last year

with you by bits by bits.

Today we'll post some some Christmas photos.

When we got up on Christmas day, we found more pressies under the tree.

Thanks, Santa Paw. You did a great job until the las minutes!

Then we heard mom turned on the oven.

"Can you tell what mom is going to make?"

Gingerbread man cookies!!

These are supposed to be healthy snack for doggies and humans.

"Do we have to share these doggie treats with humans?"

While cookies were cooling down, our pup brodder found this Thomas boy

and he immediately assumed it was HIS.

A one happy human was playing with his new toy.

Then it was time for us to open the pressies.

This package of goodies was from our Cavalier friend Kana. Her mom and our mom

have known each other for 220 years. Thank you Kana and auntie M!!

We tried smoked birdy first. YUM! YUM!

Our brudder took a short break and had a bite of cookies.

Then I smell SOMETHING!!!

Daddy started cooking Christmas dinner!!!!!

Our brudder was so preoccupied by Thomas and his friends for hours and hours.

Mom usually needs to pay SO much attention to him so

she actually didn't know what to do. BOL

"Look! It's ready!!!!"

Don't you think Mr. Birdy is gorgeous? He had a very good posture

and his evenly tanned body looked...... Ah, it was breathtaking!

A curious human pup was back to the kitchen.

These two plates had to be ours!

Each one had bit of carefully cut birdy meat, brussels sprout and mini-squashes.

"Stay........ Stay.........."

Later on mom whispered us she actually enjoyed dad was posing this way

coz it reminded her how dad asked mom a big question a year ago! :) :)

"Stay........."

"Can we eat daddy?"

It was time for humans to enjoy Mr. Birdy.

Everything our dad prepared was SOOOO good.

Thank you for making our Christmas very special, dad!

Next morning, we found future chef of the household!!!

Our future is looking gooooooood!

Hello Year 2011!!

Hello and Happy New Year, everyone!

We hope you had a pawtastic holiday season.

We finished yummy birdy from Christmas a while ago but we know there still tons of Christmas goodies in the cover. Besides, there is a Christmas pudding which we haven't touched in the fridge. We wonder when our humans will have a bite .

(Christmas photos will be posted shortly.)

Three pawty animals （↓）on New Years Eve. Hold on, there must be one more...

hehehe....

*** Show your respect to REAL hard working animals! ***

Does this really mean you're a fully trained service dog, Bodhi??

Recently one news caught our attention and we want to bark about!

Q: How do you register a service animal?

A: In many countries, THE approved program register their dogs (animals)

as a service dog (animal).

In a few others such as the United States, it's not very clear.

Ok, first of all, we googled about 'Service Animals'.

ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) states---

Service animals are animals that are individually trained to perform tasks for people with disabilities such as guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling wheelchairs, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, or performing other special tasks. Service animals are working animals, not pets.

Ok, this is something most of us believes, no doubt!

But there is a tricky part. There are NO standards or procedures for certifying a service animal under federal law. Therefore you can easily find private companies who does have official sounding names and they would certify or register your 'service animal'. They usually provide you a registration number (on their database), certificate, patch, a laminated tag

and maybe more.

??????

This means basically anyone can claim themselves as a disabled pawson then register their 'companion' as a 'service animal' for whatever pawsonal reasons.

Check this out! NSAR - National Service Animal Registry

They say, "Yes, You can take your dog with you"

Mmmmm.......??? You mean a bus or subway?

All you have to do in the cyber world is super simple.

STEP 1: You (yes, YOU) confirm that you have some types of disabilities.

No medical documents required.

STEP 2: You pawsonaly confirm to NSAR that your dog can fulfill MOST of the listed

criteria such as 'sit on command' or 'down on command'.

STEP 3: Payment process!

NSAR kindly remind you that you don't have to be blind or deaf to register.

The other thing they emhpasize is that you can accompany your 'service animal' into stores, restaurants, hotels, or on airline flights (for no extra cost), but to successfully qualify for housing where pets aren't allowed.

Sounds like this is the actual purpose for registration?!?!?

Their 'Complete Service Animal Certification Kits' is available for only $64.95.

What do you think?

Something doesn't sound right to us.

******* Morning Walky in the snow ******

Yesterday, January 4th must be a first day at work or school for many humans.

Our human pup brudder wasn't the exception. His schedule went back to normal

and we had a morning walky with mom.

We were excited but the weather didn't treat us that well.

My frisbee is so cold. :(

'I am not really into this condition...."

We had a very long shower after walky.

We wish the new year will bring you lots of joy, happiness, good health

and good laugh to you and your family. Oh yes, extra treats would be nice, too!

In the meantime time, we wish you all a very Happy Holiday season.
