The Santana Chronicles

Last weekend, Mallory’s Mom and Dad came to visit!! Guys, you have no idea how fun this was!! I did so much running, and jumping, and running, and barking, AND sleeping!

So great!

Here are some pictures from the weekend:

You can see in this one that I am working on my blog. Hard at work, as always.

It was so great to see these guys! I lived with them for a while and really miss them! How fun to show them around my place! I even took them for a walk up the street!! Read about some of the other things they did while they were here on Mallory’s blog.

In other news, Matt has started working from home on Thursdays…this is really starting to get on my nerves. Apparently they think I do NOTHING around here! I have lots to do during the day! (Keep your eye out for some direct evidence of this soon)

But this week was different, Matt let me know he was interested in learning how to do the Shred! You all know I am the master of the shred for puppies, and Matt just wanted to take advantage of this.

When he got down to do some pushups, I quickly had to correct him! The best way to correct a boy’s pushups is to run underneath him and fix his form! Some pouncing is also ideal. Seriously. I’m glad I helped him with this! He was doing his pushups ALL wrong! He is a stubborn guy…he tried to do some in the bedroom, but I kept my eye on him the whole time!

I guess his being home all day isn’t so bad if we get a good workout in like this! To Matt, I would like to say, you are very welcome for the exercise tips.

Puppy Out.

Guys guys guys!! Guess what!! I’m Santana! And I’m a puppy! AND I’m a member of the Dog Time Network!!  I’m a Dog Time Blog Star!!! Could this day get any more exciting??

The Dog Time Network is a great network of bloggers who love dogs, bloggers who know dogs, bloggers who ARE dogs (ME!).  This is AWESOME!  I’m really excited to be a part of this network and can’t wait to connect to other puppies around the internet and enjoy the dog fun!

To celebrate my new Dog Time status, I decided I needed a new Summer dress! It was a gorgeous weekend and we went to the dog park (where I successfully avoided all other dogs and got to spend some time all by myself in the park) and then we walked around Green lake.  The path around the lake is about 3 miles long, but when you zig and zag back and forth the entire time, I estimate that you walk at least twice that distance! How fun to be a puppy like me!!

The wonderful weather really made me want a dress, and we searched high and low in all the fancy boutiques around town.  The one we decided upon was actually at Target!! Hooray for Target finally updating their puppy clothing selection! Look how pretty I am!!

In other excitement, at the beginning of May, Mallory’s parents are coming to visit!! I used to live with them sometimes and I rode with Mallory’s dad across the country to come to Seattle!!

THEN at the beginning of August, one of Mallory’s best friends from KY is coming to visit for two weeks!! This is super exciting because this friend is the one who bought me and gave me to Mallory for a graduation present three years ago!! And she hasn’t seen me since I was a tiny tiny tiny baby puppy, like this:

She will be stunned to see how big I, Santana, have grown!! Get ready for fun!  She is almost done with Vet school right now, so she knows all about how to take care of puppies like me! I will show HER how to run in big circles and it will be glorious!

Last excitement! Dori is giving away a doormat! A doormat! Guys these are hilarious! About DOGS!!!!!
