Gnarlybone Contest

This Dinabone has been around for a little less than a year, I think I got it last fun day. Anyway, all my dogs have quite enjoyed it, Spike, Burgess, and Tahoe. And of course Chappelle has his choice of the toys...this one is frequently his favorite.

It used to have a head, a tail, and two complete legs. :)

Spike a Roo Turns Two

Today Spike and Suede turned two years old! 
Their family decided to have a few people over for a little celebration. 
(Indy is their other dog, and today was his "honorary" birthday) Spike and Suede are doing really well, and their party was pretty nice. It was pirate themed...
Arrr
Spike wore his birthday shirt for just a little while, but it seemed to be depressing him, so I took it off. 
There were presents.
And Spike started to play with the one I got them right away...
But then big bad Suede stole it. 
And what would Spike's birthday be without a little old water nose dipping?
Haha, he hasn't changed much. ;)

Anyway we had a really good time, the S babes are really happy, and pulling off two very well.

A few quick notes

Internship news should come on/by May 11! I'm anxiously awaiting the news. If I don't get it, I'll just apply again next year, but it will still be a bummer. 

Redid my blog layout. Hope you like it. :)

And here's something to make this post extra cute! The mustang...yes mustang that I'm starting to event. For you non-horse people, mustangs don't typically get ridden in english events. ;) Went to his very first show a couple weeks ago, and he was really excellent, placed first in both of our classes. Anyway I'm excited about him, and thought I'd share his cute face with all of you. His name is Marsh.
Boring-ness will resume until some noteworthy news. ;)

Visa Visa

Guess who's on one of Guide Dogs' visa cards?


Chappelle! And Cordova....and another little female named Escort. If you look at the above link, the card on the top left. Order is Chappelle, Escort, and Cordova. They took that picture at Fun Day three years ago as a modeling thing for the new partnership with the dog beds. Anyway. It's neat. Thought I would share. Back to this blog being boring. :)

Internship

Since this blog is extremely boring lately, I thought I would at least let you guys know that I applied for the internship at Guide Dogs this summer. I sent in my application yesterday, and my references should be following shortly. I really really hope that I get it, and I applied for a position in training as my first choice. I'll be sure to let you guys know if I get it or not, and then I'll be able to give more details about what I'll be doing, where I'll be staying, and when I'll be going! :)

Spike's Video

For my 200th post, I give you this:


It's slightly off center on the post, so some of the pictures are probably cut off partway. If you want the full experience. You can use this link:

Songs that I used:
Somethin' Special by Colbie Caillat
I Was Here by Lady Antebellum
Shine On by Needtobreathe

P.S. If you watched it earlier today, the sound wasn't functioning, so you weren't able to hear the music. ;)
