On our way to McDonalds for breakfast:

"I would like an Egg McMuffin, some of those round potato things and a large coffee please."

Do puppies dream of electric kittens?

Giving the raspberry!

10 weeks 2 days.

We went to the vet yesterday - 16.2 lbs:
1.157 stone
72.09 Newtons
243 Fig Newtons, which Jack would probably love, but he isn't allowed to have people food yet.

Although I guess fingers count as people food to Jack. (Is there anything you can't find on the Internets?)

He's the same weight as a

Raymarine E02013 E120 12.1-inch Multifunction Navigation Display

(Just in case you've ever wondered if your puppy weighed the same as a GPS unit.)

Election day.

Did you vote?

I wonder if Jack would be a yellow-dog democrat. Or maybe he's just a Democrat who is a yellow dog. Good for him.

Why do puppies like brooms? Or hate them? Why can't they just be indifferent toward them like I am.

If we're ever attacked by household cleaning devices, it will be the dogs who save us. Or maybe a puppy.

Grass? What grass? I haven't been eating any grass. I don't know how that grass got in my mouth. Maybe some other dog came by and put it there.

Why would I be eating grass when I've got $200.00 an ounce dog food?

Nope, not me.

Besides, if you didn't want me to eat grass, why did you put it down here where I could get it?

5:30 AM on a Saturday morning can never come too early for some people.....or puppies.

Halloween...

Hmmm, where have I seen this look before?

Oh, that's right. I've seen it HERE!

I refuse to believe that Jack has the stare that threatens all mankind! Just don't touch his bottle.

However, I did tell him I was thinking about THIS.

So, if you don't see a new post on November 1, you'll know why.

How does one get to be a model?

For my talent portion of the competition, I can jump up on a stool, grab and eat the feather duster that was left there by my dad. Or maybe I could play the flute!

I can also wake up at 4:15AM full of energy and ready to start a new day. I find that if I chew on the head of the person closest to me with their eyes shut, they wake up full of energy and ready to go, telling me what a good boy I am and how happy he is to see me. At least I think that's what he's saying to me.

Sometimes your front end doesn't know what your back end is doing. That's when you need a little Bach. (Presto from one of the Brandenburg Concertos. Which one? I think it's the 3rd movement from #4 - but then again what do I know? I'm a puppy.)

You want the sad eyes?
I can do sad eyes from 50 feet away without batting an eyelash!
Besides, you have to love me - it's like a rule or commandment or something.

Jack is very green. He's big on recycling - although not perhaps in the ways we're used to!

I can't believe that there not a KONG version of a plastic cup...

I didn't know Dyson made a puppy vacuum cleaner!

Walking around the neighborhood - or as we call it in England - 'walkies'.

We learnt that from BBC America. We also learnt 'learnt'. Perhaps on 'Father Ted'. We definitely learnt 'feck' from Father Ted. You can watch and listen here.

Now, once we get the pee-ies and the poop-ies down pat, we're good to go. I felt strange saying 'pee' and 'poop' at the vet. What words do you use?

Notice that we are NOT naked. Also notice that we are NOT eating our bone-shaped tag. Progress!

Jack ATTACKS!

If you've ever wondered what it's like to be eaten alive. Much violence and gore.



OUCH!

October 23, 2008

BEWARE OF JACK!

I have no idea what you want me to do, but if you'll just show me, I'll try to do it.

I like looking out the window to see where we're going. I always wear my seat belt!

Sleep, eat, sleep, poop, sleep, pee, sleep, eat ... you get the picture.
