NomNom aka Boris aka Smelly

2010-07-27T02:13:00.003-05:00

Hello peeps,

I have had a great couple of weeks.

Our new friend NomNom aka Boris did not come over and stay with us like he was supposed to.

He has moved straight to his new home on the other side of town. When he arrived he was:

1. Recovering from a hernia operation.
2. Suffering from a cold and therefore had red eyes. He needs to have eye drops everyday.
3. Covered in fleas - yes thats right, fleas.

So far, he has been one expensive puppy and cost a bomb. I hope he is worth it.

Mom is secretly relieved that she didn't have to babysit him in case the fleas migrated to us.

When Mom visited him she told me that he does really bad farts and also a really smelly poo that stunk out the whole house!

Boris = Smelly

New friend maybe?

Hello peoples,

It has been extra cold here in mornings so we have been sleeping in the garage. But Casper likes to hog the bed and I usually end up on the floor! Sometimes I manage to squeeze on the bed if there is room.

Last weekend Mom and Dad went for a drive to Bendigo. They came back and told us we were going to have a visitor staying with us for a couple of weeks. Our visitor smells like this:

Check out his face - what a suck! No wonder Mom though he was the cutest thing ever. Hrrrmppphh...nothing is as cute as me.

He looks like a NomNom to me. Casper thought Mom had made friends with an alien but I told him its no alien silly, its a bulldog.

NomNom lives with his family on a farm.

Check out the boofhead trying to squeeze his way out of the fence.

Mom also made friends with this guy who ended up drooling all over her.

Looks like he is enjoying Mom's ear rubs too much.

Anyway we will have NomNom staying with us while his parents are on holidays in Greece for 3 weeks. Mom says we have to be nice to him as he is still a baby. Oh no, that means I might have to share my food with someone else!

Over and out.

Funny Stuff

2010-05-14T00:37:00.000-05:00

Hello peoples,

I have come to the realisation that once you take a bad photo on a camera, you must delete it at once otherwise it gets out there on the big bad web and you cannot delete it. Ever.
Like these poor suckers.

This guy must have seperation anxiety issues. I mean, who sleeps with a ball in their mouth?

I wonder if he ever wakes up with one side of his face blown up and puffy?

And this last little guy on his blue couch. That is just too obscene. I can see his willy.

Hmmm..I wonder if there are any funny photos of my brother.....

Hi Peoples,

Mom went away to Brisbane last weekend. She told us we were only going to sleepover at Hugo's place for 2 nights, and then she would come and get us, but she ended up leaving us there for 8 nights! I was so mad at her I went looking for her to protest being away from home for so long.

I found a hole in the fence and managed to escape to the neighbour's back yard but didnt get very far after that.

There was a Big Dog who tried to make friends with me in the neighbour's backyard but I just wanted to go home. So the kind people living with Big Dog rang Hugo's doorbell and I was collected and brought back. My chance at freedom was snuffed out just like that. Although, Big Dog asked me to come back and play again because he gets lonely sometimes.

So while I was being brought back Casper decided he would do a search and rescue to look for me and managed to squeeze himself through the same hole. He really can't leave me alone for a second. Well, he wasn't expecting Big Dog to greet him. The below picture nicely illustrates what I think Casper went through when he made it through the hole. Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk.

Anyway, we had to ring Big Dog's doorbell again and found Casper being chased by Big Dog. I don't think he'll be in a hurry to squeeze through holes any time soon.

From now on I am going to call Hugo's house Casa OhNo. Yeah, thats right, Oh No, not here again.

Over and out,

Up up and away

Hi guys,
The little monster Hugo is so clever! We stayed with Hugo for 2 weeks and during that time he managed to make his ears go really big.

The baby

Going up

Cheers big ears

Now all I hear from Mom is "Scooby why are your ears so floppy" Talk about raising standards around here! Well, I think everyone should have freedom of choice if they want to show floppy ears or not. I happen to think I look cute with floppy ears.

On top of that we had to pose for a furry potrait. We weren't really in the mood and none of us could be bothered concentrating. I bullied Auntie PC and managed to get on her lap while everyone else had to be on the floor. It's not my fault she spoils me.

Over & out!

We have a new playmate

2010-02-15T06:41:00.001-05:00

Hello friends. We have a new playmate. Mom said that we have to be nice to him. Everybody, meet Hugo.

He smelt so exciting that we couldn't help but bowl him over. Check out The Piranha trying her best to "supervise" but we just ignored her. Boy was she extra grumpy that day. She kept on trying to pick fights with everyone. Secretly I think she felt left out because all of the attention was on us, The Boyz.

One thing about Hugo, because he is still little he could not outrun us so he would give up and lie on his back to let us sniff him.

Hugo likes to bite my face, nom nom nom. I think he thought I was his chicken neck. And Casper didn't even try to protect me. What kind of brother is that? He just stood there watching us.

Then I was minding my own business when he tried to take advantage of me. Instead of trying to help me Mom kept on snapping away taking photos. What kind of Mom is she - maybe I should report her to the RSPCA. Why do I always get picked on?

When we finally got home Casper and I conked out straightaway on our bed, and Mom couldn't figure out who was snoring the loudest. Dad on the couch or me on our bed. We can't wait to see Hugo and play with him again.

Humongosaurous

2010-01-16T21:33:00.012-05:00

Hi everyone,

A thousand apologies. After Aunty Su reminded Mom that its been 9 months(!!) since we updated, Mom finally let me on to the computer.

We are still alive and have been busy digging, going for walks etc - life just got in the way.

Well the Old Man Shah went over the rainbow bridge about 4 months ago. Mom was sad for a little while because he was her No.1 for a long time before I came along and become the No.1 in her life. She told us that when she found out she was driving over the Wast Gate Bridge and her taps went on all the way home. I think there must have been a flood in the car. But she is ok now because we have tried very hard to cheer her up.

I am having an off day today. Feeling sick and threw up a couple of times and Mom discovered I've been eating bark. So I have been taken in the house feeling sorry for myself.

Well, i think my stomach churned because Mom showed me this photo:

Now that the old man is gone, The Piranha has a new friend, or should I say bodyguard. It looks like a Humongosaur! Look at its teeth! Eeek I'm almost scared to visit The Piranha now. Even though things have not been the same since Old Man left we have been able to play hide and seek with The Piranha because she is going blind. Now with this monster around I dont know if we will be able to hide.

See that crazy glint in its eyes? I can almost hear the ground shaking and getting nightmares thinking about being chased by IT. I will keep you guys know what this crazy monster does when we meet.

Until then, signing out for now. We are glad to be back and won't leave it too long between updates.

Poor Me

2009-04-19T06:16:00.007-05:00

Hi Everyone!

I've been so itchy lately! I think my skin allergy is really bad this season. Mom thinks I am allergic to corn which I had over a couple of days and afterward I couldn't stop scratching myself even after she took the corn out of my diet. I have had a Voren injection but that seemed to only provide short term relief.

So Mom has been applying aloe vera cream to my itchy bits which help a little, and I have been having baths with Malaseb shampoo almost every second week. Mom has been on Google and seen all the Westies that have had their skin conditions clear up on Malaseb so she is hoping that will be the same for me. She is considering starting me on Science Diet too but that might have to come later if the Malaseb does not work. It means she might have to give up buying makeup every month but I'm worth it!

Yes, that Gremlin is me! I was having my bath and I hope I haven't given anyone nightmares!

Afterwards I wear my favourite shirt for a couple of days. Mom read somewhere that this helps so I don't scratch my skin so hard. And yes, that is my favourite shirt and red is my favourite colour.

Oh why can't I stop itching? And why isn't Casper itchy too! It's not fair!

To top it off Casper has been taking advantage of me lately and has been bullying me off the bed when Mom is not around.

Over and out peoples!

My oops I mean OUR Throne

2009-03-17T05:28:00.007-05:00

Hello everyone,

Mom and Dad went to Ikea to buy a cupboard and they came back with the cupboard AND something else for us!

Putting it together.

It's mine!

Give it back!

Our family Portrait on the Royal throne.

Although, I noticed on the pattern that there is a bulldog AND a cat. Hmmm..I thought this was for dogs only. It can only fit us both when we sit like this. Oh well, if I want to lie down I just have to kick Casper off.

I think I need to start doing some ear exercises so that my ears can be pointy like my brother's.

Something a little odd has been in our backyard for the past couple of days.

Its a bird!
Its a cat!
A drag queen(or dog)
Wait I think its a Racoon!
Well, it looks like a Racoon but it smells like a Casper. Tee hee hee.

My brother has a bit of an eye infection or maybe a blocked tearduct so he has to have eyedrops everyday which makes him look like racoon eyes! I tell him he does not need to put his makeup on everyday. Casper is really grumpy because I call him a racoon. He gets so mad at me and I have to cop his DONT MESS WITH ME I'M A NINJA move.

Hi everyone, I hope your Christmas was as fun as ours. We got a new sand pit for Christmas! I played in it until my skin itched like mad and I couldn't stop scratching. I kept on getting yelled at SCOOBY! GET OUT OF THERE! but I don't care. This is MY pit and I can do what I like!

Crappy daybed

Haircut

2008-10-06T06:37:00.007-05:00

Since it is now spring time Mom decided she needed to get rid of that winter hair that has been keeping us warm.

We went for a haircut at our favourite groomer.

Now we are nice and neat. (and that's dad telling us to pose!)

Finally, this I thought I'd check that casper's nose is clean....

Ok Bye!

Orchids are yummy!

2008-10-06T06:26:00.004-05:00

Hi everyone,

I know I haven't updated in a while. Well, we have been doing lots of things. Casper just completed his first level of obedience class. I sometimes tag along and I will post pictures of that soon!

But first of all I just wanted to say that orchids are yummy...well, I HEARD they are yummy. Here are some that Mom saved when she woke up one morning and found the pot overtuned and the beautiful buds all over the garden. I tried to tell her the neighbour's cat did it but she did not believe me and instead wanted to play a game of chase...it was 7am in the morning! Geez it was too early mom! Well, Casper and I won because she could not catch us...hehhehe...

Pretty (ahem...Yummy!) flowers....if you look closely you can see that SOMEONE has been playing with them and bruised the edges...these are the ones that mom managed to save.

Uuuhhhhhhh.....

2008-08-04T07:44:00.004-05:00

....The cat did it????

Somehow I don't think Mom and Dad believed us when we told them our day bed dieded and the neighbour's cat did it.

Swimming pool water is yuck!

2008-07-31T19:40:00.011-05:00

Hello all,

I finally got to drink lots of swimming pool water...and it is YUCKY YUCKY!

I got to go along with Casper when he went to the physio and while he was walking in the underwater treadmill I got thrown in the pool...ok, maybe I am exaggerating a little but I did drink lots of pool water..ptui ptui!

What's going on here!

They put that little yellow lifejacket on me, maybe I look good in yellow after all.

Hey Mom, stop taking photos can't you see I am drowning!

Well, at least my diet is working because I didn't sink to the bottom of the pool.

After we finished swimming they put that stupid noisy hairdryer on me!

Die Die Die!!

I think Casper is actually enjoying it.

Casper is such a suck!

For those of you who want to know how he is, he is doing pretty good after his operation. He is limping a lot less now, only when he has been on the move for a while will he show signs of tiredness and drag his leg or hop on three legs. Apart from that he is starting to walk normally and can trot, as opposed to hopping all the time like he did before the operation.

Mom and Dad decided to torture him further by enrolling him at obedience class...let's just say he finds it a bit stressful. Hiak Hiak Hiak.....

Casper's BIG DAY OUT

2008-07-06T07:48:00.009-05:00

Hello everyone,

It's now really cold and wet on most days and I am having a hard time staying clean. I think Mom has sort of given up on bathing us because we get dirty almost immediately.

For those that want an update on Casper, this weekend was his first visit to the physio - yes even us doggies have doggie physios!

It's been a month since Casper had his operation and he seems to be able to use his leg but we cannot go for very longs walkies like we used to because Casper starts limping halfway - so walkie time is now very short - where we used to go for 45 mins now we only go for about 20 mins. And we have to walk V-E-R-Y-S-L-O-W-L-Y as Mr Vet said that we have to start getting Casper to use his sick leg!

Anyway I was left behind while Casper went to see the physio but Mom showed me the photos when they got back.

Here is his bird's eye view on the journey there:

When he arrived he told me he played around with the physio but she made him stand up on his hind legs constantly and then after a while he said that his leg started to hurt so he stopped...until she gave him some yummies! which made him stand up to reach the yummies again but this time he said he cheated! He stood up on his hind legs but put more weight on the good leg. See my brother is not so dumb! Afterward he said she massaged his leg until it got sore again, then he was put in a underwater treadmill so that he could do a S-L-O-W walk under water.

Casper in his underwater treadmill:

Let me out!!!

After about 2 x 5 mins session on the treadmill he got to go swimming!!

Checking out his life vest - I wonder if I'd look as good in yellow as he does. Mom says she will take me swimming next week. I hope I don't sink like a pebble to the bottom of the pool!

Dad telling Casper that everything will be ok and that he will be at the end to pull him out if he starts sinking!

Is that a drowned rat or is that my brother?

It's Casper looking like a drowned rat!

After he finished up he says he almost got blown away by a BIG hairdryer which was loud and noisy. GRRRrrr...I HATE loud and noisy things. If they try using that dryer on me I'm going to ATTACK and KILL it!

Well that was Casper's big day out and hopefully next week I will also get some swimming lessons and check out whether that yellow looks good on me.

Scooby

xoxxx

ps. I better go on a crash diet so that I don't sink to the bottom of the pool.....

Casper's BIG OUCH!

2008-05-31T04:16:00.006-05:00

Hello everyone,

Yesterday Casper went for his BIG operation. He came home doped up and mom said he looks really stoned. HA HA. Well I tried to cheer him up but he was really grouchy AND didn't want to play at all. In fact he chased me out of the house when I tried to comfort him! What a grumpy bum. I got scolded by mom and dad for disturbing him. So now they are going to send me off to Aunty P's for a couple of days so that Casper has a couple of days of R & R.

The big ouch!

Tucked in and sleeping it off

Mom keeps taking photos with BIG BRIGHT flash when she should be leaving Casper alone!

Of course I need some attention too.

Alright, off to Aunty P's place now.

What a May!

2008-05-23T06:49:00.007-05:00

Hello peoples!

I have had an eventful couple of weeks!

First off, Mom disappeared AGAIN! This time she literally left in the middle of the night and didn't even tell me she was going away! I only found out because Dad was left to supervise us every night. He did pretty ok except we hardly went for any walks. Thanks Dad and Aunty Charm! While Mom was away I managed to get a bone stuck in my throat so Dad had to rush me to the vet early one morning because Casper woke everyone up with his barking! Apparently Casper was trying to help me get the bone out of my throat but I can't remember because I was too busy trying to dig the bone out from my neck. When that didn't work Casper would run to the door and BARK BARK BARK. Thanks Casper! Sorry Dad and Aunty C for scratching you when you were trying to help me.

Anyway when Mom came back she told me she take to get on a big metal bird that flew her far away. She had to go and say goodbye to her grandma for one last time before she left forever. I asked Mom where forever was and Mom said don't be silly Scooby! But I can tell that she is sad because she had to say goodbye and so I told her not to be sad because I'm still around!

Mom showed me a photo of a new friend that she made while she was away - his name is Rex and he is still a baby! He likes to hide under chairs and will sit quietly while everyone is watching TV. What a good boy! When I was a baby I could not keep still and would wiggle around like a worm. Hello Rex! Secretly I was relieved Mom didn't bring Rex home with her otherwise I would have someone else to compete with to get attention.

Be a good boy Rex and stay where you are!

When Mom went away the Old Man Shah and THE PIRANHA came over to stay with us! Boy did it feel like a looooooooong sleepover. I don't know whether the Old Man was sooking because his own Mom and Dad left in the middle of the night too but he wouldn't eat for the first couple of days. Dad got so worried that he took the Old Man to Mr Vet who diagnosed him with a really bad tummy ache. Anyway the Old Man started eating again on the 3rd day with us - damn - no more seconds for Casper and I.

Us vs. Them

When Mom came home the Old Man and the Piranha also went back to their own homes.

Bye Bye Old Man - I won't miss all the messy presents you left behind in our backyard because of your tummy ache!

Finally, Casper is going to go for a BIG OPERATION at the end of this month to hopefully fix his OUCH! once and for all. Mom has decided to take a day off to make sure he gets there ok and is picked up in 1 piece.

The thing about holes

2008-04-20T08:28:00.006-05:00

My brother likes his holes.

Oh yes he does.

Huh?

Who? Wha? Where am I?

Stupid bucket

2008-03-15T06:08:00.007-05:00

Hello everyone,

I really have to vent...I HATE THIS BUCKET!

Look at my face...I woofed at Mom that I wasn't ready for my foto to be taken! Now I look constipated forever.

I just hate having to wear this bucket 24/7. Mom took me to Mr Vet for a follow up visit for my sore paw and Mr Vet told me I need to wear the stupid bucket for a bit longer. The good news is that if the wound improves on my next visit I won't need to have an operation. whoopie! Now I know this is going to sound really bad but I thought I'd share this with all of you as I'm sure I am not the only one to feel this way. I was so anxious and nervous about my possible operation whilst waiting to see Mr Vet I managed to do both Number 1 AND Number 2 in Mr Vet's waiting area! Mom got a little bit embarrassed and was caught without any plastic bags to pick up my presents but luckily the Nice Lady at Mr Vet gave her some bags. I did some BIG LONG ones! Then I heard Mom telling Nice Lady that luckily my presents were nice and firm and left no mess! I almost died of embarrassment! YUCK!

STUPID BUCKET!

On another note check out how dirty we get. Casper is the BEFORE BATHTIME and I am AFTER BATHTIME. I am so white I look fake. Actually I think I look like a stuffed teddy bear you find on the shelves at Christmas time!

Thats all for today peoples!

Walking wounded

2008-03-01T00:30:00.005-05:00

Hello everyone.

We are still alive. It has been a very busy 2 months and I have not had any computer time!

First of all Dad has been madly on the computer doing work til 1am most nights over Christmas and January while Mom conks out on the bed to zZZZzzz. Then in February Mom and Dad went away AGAIN and we had to stay over at Auntie P's for a couple of weeks. They told me they had to leave for a VIP wedding in Singapore! It's not fair! They have been travelling so much lately!

I have been working hard on my diet so that next time Mom and Dad go away I can easily fit in to their luggage so they can take me with them! I heard Mom say she has to save hard because she might be going away again in October for another wedding!

Anyway both Casper and I have OUCH!

Compared to Casper my OUCH is not so bad. My left paw was feeling sore since last Tuesday so I started licking it. Mom noticed that I was paying special attention my paw so she has been keeping an eye on it for me. But yesterday I started limping and was constantly licking it so this morning she took me to Mr Vet. It looks like either some of my dermatitis has come back and I have licked it to the point where a lump has formed between my pads OR I have something buried deep inside. Either way Mr Vet hurt me again! I really really hate going to see Mr Vet. Mom literally has to drag me in to the room, cuz I plant my feet on the floor and I refuse to move. But DAMN YOU Mr. Vet, you just had to go and put smooth floors in your practice so I just slid right along. I must figure out some way to stop sliding on the floor. Mom always laughs at me and calls me a chicken pok pok in front of everyone at Mr Vet's! So now I have to wear that stupid bucket on my head so that I don't lick my paw and take some antibiotics to ease the swelling and pain. I think I have to go back to Mr Vet in 10 days time so they can see if my paw has improved. YUCK!

As for my brother Casper - check this out!

Casper has been hopping and limping alot lately so Mom took him to get an XRAY. If you look closely you will see that the ball in his left hip has not formed properly. So his body has tried to heal itself by forming tissue mass/bone around the ball. Mom told me that it is a growing pain and it is OUCH alright! Essentially Casper will need to have an operation to shave off the deformed ball which should ease the pain in the long term.

Aunty P suggested that while Mom was away she'd take Casper go to this doggie massage lady who massaged Casper til he screamed in to Pain! Mom thought that might help ease his problem. But now the XRAY has proved that Casper needs to have an operation ASAP. I think Mom is going to book Casper in for his operation soon. Poor Casper. What a big OUCH.

Whenever Mom sees us playing rough in the backyard she screams at us because she worries that Casper might hurt himself more because I am a fatty boom boom and I might squash his leg. But I tell her Casper's THE MAN YO! He's a tough one and he takes whatever I throw at him. I think Mom is subconsciously worried about the operation but I tell her we'll be alright. My brother is a tough little man - he has a heart murmur but that doesn't stop him bullying me, just like his leg pain doesn't stop him running as hard and as fast as me!

SO that's all for now peoples and I will let you know how everything goes.

Over and out!

It's truly the silly season

2007-12-24T03:27:00.000-05:00

Hi peoples....

I knows it's Christmas time when Mom buys us these silly things to wear on our heads.

She says it makes us look good but I think it looks retarded! She wouldn't stop hassling us until we wore them properly.

Regardless, Merry Christmas everyone and have a safe New Year, especially Aunty Caz all the way in Manchester who has to work over this period! Mom says she's hoping you will go home in February so she can see you!

You look funny.

Do not.

Do too.

Do NOT!

Aunty PC is one of my most favourite people

2007-12-17T15:12:00.000-05:00

Aunty PC went to the markets on the weekend and she bought a present for us. Thank you Aunty PC.

Do you like outr new drinking bowl? I wonder what kind of dog is small enough to put its footprints on the inside of the bowl?

Although I wonder why she got one that says Puddles on it? I'm not Puddles I'm Scooby.

Dirty and Clean

2007-12-09T15:11:00.000-05:00

Hello everyone!

I can't believe it's December already. I heard Mom saying she needs to start shopping for presents as there is only 2 weeks to Christmas.

As part of our skincare overhaul recently we now have baths every 2 week. You can see for yourself how grey we become in 2 weeks. We will have baths this often until our skin clears up. Actually, it is improving alot now that we have started using a new medicated shampoo and also the fact that Mom makes Dad cut the grass regularly so that it is kept short helps alot. I think I'm just like Mom - allergic to long grass!!!

We posed for photos and Casper decides he wants to show us the inside of his mouth. I just look totally disinterested.

Then Mom waved some goodies in front of us. That got our attention!

Here is our photo AFTER the bath. Mom was too lazy to whip out the camera and take photos of us while we were wet. Maybe next time I will get her to post some pictures of us when we are looking like we are drowning. Casper on the left, me on the right. Hey I noticed that one of Casper's ears is missing! I hope Mom didn't wash it away! I am tired by the stage and just need a nap.

Once again Mom whipped out the yummies and that got our attention! We are now back to being White and Clean!

I don't mind taking baths, my favourite bits are when Mom scrubs the shampoo in to my back. It feels really good. Then I like playing peek-a-boo with her when she towels me dry. Bath times are fun times!. That's all for today. Bye!

What I did today

2007-11-25T06:00:00.000-05:00

Hi everyone,

I am still alive. Just. I have been having some itchy skin lately and have not stopped scratching long enough to get on the computer. But I think it is under control. I told Mom that I think the grass is making me itchy so she told Dad to mow the lawn real short and keep it short. Now I cannot play hide and seek with Casper amongst the grass cos there is no where to hide.

Mom also took me to Mr Vet as I have have scratched myself so much that I have some yucky crusty patches. Mr Vet told me that I have some allergies and if it gets worse then I might have to go on some permanent medication to control my allergies. As Mom is one of those people who refuses to take medication unless she really needs to she told me she will try to do the same for me. So she bought some super duper shampoo which makes me skin all nice and tingly.

But anyway, today was a nice day so Mom and Aunty P took us to the park. I like car rides and like to hang out the window! Mom told Aunty P to hold on tight to me.

Mom you are such a tourist. Stop taking photos and get in the car!

There were so many flies at the park that Mom forgot all about taking photos and spent the whole walk swatting the flies with a branch she plucked from a tree! I think I ate a couple but never mind. At least my nose is not as big as Mom's cuz she told me while we were walking she managed to snort a couple of flies up her nose! Yuck!

We walked for ages! I heard Mom telling Aunty P that we had walked for 2 hours!!!!!!

When we came home there was some Christmas Party going on in our street so Aunty P dragged Mom along to check it out. Mom told me that we would stop to get some freebies and then go home.

There was a small animal farm and Mom was obsessed with this chicken. Don't ask me why as I think she should be obsessed with me. Stupid chicken!

Casper trying to tell this pig that he does not like pork, only chicken!

Meanwhile I was trying to make friends with these guys.....

Now I'm exhausted after my big day out so going to catch some zzz's.....

Bye!

I should read the newspaper more often

2007-10-28T21:17:00.001-05:00

Hello everyone.

Today I was having a nice quiet Sunday when I heard mom screaming my name "Scccoooooobbyyyyyy". What now?

She told me I was in today's paper and here it is - she was telling the truth.

I'm right here at the bottom in an advert for Natures Gift. I instructed Mom to add the additional comments because I have not mastered the art of writing...yet...hiak hiak. Pounding my paws on the keyboard is no sweat - its like how I pound Casper's head when we are playing rough.

I think I look really cute if I do say so myself. Actually I look nothing like that picture anymore because Casper and I went to the groomers last week. Will show you what we look like soon.

ps. I think Mom is still excited over my brief stint as a coverboy. Its old news Mom, get over it!

My poor tummy

2007-10-13T23:11:00.000-05:00

Last night I had a bad tummy ache. I thought it was nothing major and went for walkies in the evening with Casper and Mom. Unfortunately for me it was one of those days when Mom was feeling like going for a marathon - so we walked for over an hour. I did 3 big poopsies that even Mom commented Wow Scooby you are full of shit today. Then after my big dumps I tried to get rid of even more rubbish a couple of times but nothing came out. By the time my stomach was just grumbling big time but Mom still wanted to keep on walking. I couldn't stand it anymore so I put on the brakes and wouldn't move. Mom still tried to drag me along so I lay down on the pavement! That was the only way I could tell her that my stomach was not happy jan. So when she saw I wasn't going to move she picked me up and carried me for a bit. The view from her hip was fantastic. I think this must be what a king feels like sitting on top of his throne looking down at his subjects, or in my case looking down at my one and only loyal subject - Casper! Long live King Scooby!

I heard Mom telling Dad about the big stomach ache I had and Dad just looked at Mom and shook his head when she told him she had to carry me for part of the way. He must have been agreeing with Mom that I was sick enough to be carried. My Dad's the best!

It's hard work being Casper's brother

2007-10-11T16:29:00.000-05:00

Remember how Casper likes to play and pull out our blankets?

It means I have to sleep outside to get warm!

Weekend away

2007-10-03T20:11:00.000-05:00

Hello everyone,

We went to Coop's farm in Ballarat for a weekend away recently. This is the first time Casper met Coop and apart from some petty squabbles we all got along ok. There were lots of things to see and do.

We got up early one morning and went for a walk in the paddocks.

Hurry up you tortoises! Mom stop taking photos and get over here!

We went swimming, or rather, Coop and I went swimming.

Can I go in, can I can I can I???????????

Come on Casper it's not too deep.

Oops, I farted. No wonder Coop is staying far away.

When there were strange noises and crazy people around I made sure I stuck very close to Mom and Casper.

Look, I found some bird poo!

OK that's enough now.

Casper is a scardy cat. He would not stop barking all night as I think he was scared of the strange noises. But he was also being a pain in the ass and trying to pick fights with Coop. Hello, Coop would eat you for dessert you nincompoop. Actually Coop almost had Casper for dessert while Mom stood there and watched! Later on Mom said Casper had to learn to stop bullying Coop. Casper stayed far away from Coop after that. Once Coop thought I was a white furry bowling ball - of course I showed him who's boss!

Conked out on the way home in the car.

I hope Coop invites us back to his farm again. Next time we will be better behaved!

New accessory

2007-09-19T07:28:00.000-05:00

So bad Mom took Casper to get his snip snip. BAD BAD Mommy! When he came home, he was like a zombie cuz he was still all drugged up. Once the drugs wore off he has been constantly whinging and whinging. Believe me when I know how it feels! Anyhow Casper has to wear a bucket on his head until he gets his stitches out. Hiak Hiak he looks very funny. He looks like a clown without all the makeup!

Mom thought that it would be hilarious to take the bucket and put it on me.

Ha Ha very funny Mom ha ha.

Stop itching your sore bits Casper!!

I'm BACK

2007-09-12T19:26:00.000-05:00

And Mom's back too. I am so happy. There is nothing like walking home knowing that when you reach your destination you are truly home. My time at Auntie PC's was good. Thank you Auntie PC I now like raw bones. Yum Yum.

Today Casper goes in for SNIP SNIP. I hope he is ok. I am missing him already. Will be back soon for some show and tell!

Boo Hoo

2007-08-24T00:46:00.000-05:00

I have been sooking at Auntie PC's house. Mom dropped us off last night and I showed her how upset I was that she is not taking me with her on her short break. I ignored her and went in to my house when she was trying to say good bye to me. Not happy Jan! Anyway Auntie PC tried to cheer me up this morning by giving us both a BIG JUICY beef bone. I have no appetite for it. I hope Mom thinks of me while she is away. I might have to cheer myself up by surfing the net. Do you think Auntie PC will stop surfing youtube for a moment so that I can have some doggie net time to myself?

Some random stuff

2007-08-20T00:46:00.001-05:00

Hi everyone,

I did a spring clean of my photos and found some which I'd like to share. Before Casper came along Mom tried to socialise me with as many doggy friends as she could. I found one of me and Hooch.

I think Hooch was very excited to be taking a photo with me. What do you guys think?

Here I am trying to pretend I am an elefant and grow myself a trunk.

Somehow I don't think I was very successful.

Stay tuned, I will post some more oldies soon!

Some (maybe not so) new Stuff!

2007-08-19T23:17:00.001-05:00

Hello peoples!

Long time no update. But here is something for you all. Mom cracked a mood and decided to get crafty.

She turned this:

In to this:

Ta dah!

Casper, I'm not trying to be mean but your butt looks big in this. (Why does he always try to hog the camera? Doesn't he know that I'M the supermodel here????)

I love my new superhero coat very very much because Mom made it for us. I might get her to re-do my S cuz it looks wonky compared to Casper's C. What do you guys think?

As you can see Casper has had a bit of a growth spurt recently, and he is not as skinny as before and he is retaining his weight quite well. He needs a groom and I need a wash.

I am going to stay with Auntie PC very very soon while Mom is away. I am going to miss Mom very very much. I have asked her whether she can fit me in to her suitcase if I promise to try very hard to lose some weight. She just says No Scooby, good boy.

I feel sorry for me

2007-07-09T16:30:00.000-05:00

Dear Mom,

It has now been 3 days straight that we have not gone for walkies. Casper is annoying me because he does not get to burn off his energy and wants to play and hump me ALL THE TIME. Yes Mom, you need to get him SNIP SNIP soon because he thinks I am his blow-up dog. Eeekk!!!

I know you are out all day and are busy, and don't get home til late but don't forget that bum of yours gets bigger when you don't do any exercise! Don't you see me sitting by the door hoping that you will soon take me out for walkies? I need to sniff every tree, pee on every 2nd one. Say hello to the ants and the bugs along our street. I need to stare at that black cat that always watches us from the entrance to No. 21. I know it never moves or says anything back to me when I get angry and scold it because its rude to stare, I just like to show who's boss. You know I miss watching the doggies at No.2 try to do a vertical running man against the window when they see us walk by.

I see you!!

Your me-no-happy-and-I'm-getting-fat-with-no-exercise best buddy,

Scooby
xoxo

Homework Part 2

2007-07-02T22:23:00.001-05:00

Hi guys,

I have been so bored lately – the weather has been cold and wet so have not been going out of the house as much.

So Casper and I decided to amuse ourselves and do some homework.

Pretty good A+ effort don’t you think? Mom thought so too – when she saw it she screamed her head off and kept on chasing us around the backyard asking “Who did this? Was it you? Come back here!” Of course Casper and I are so proud of our work. I think Mom is going to be buying us a new day bed soon because she will want to frame this one up and show everyone how clever we are!

Anxiety? What's That?

2007-06-24T19:36:00.000-05:00

Hello peoples,

I think I have a problem. I have a habit of waiting at the sliding door, at almost the same time every night for Mom to come out and play with me, feed me, or go walkies. The longer it takes her to come out, the more anxious I get, the more glue I use to stick my butt to the ground outside the door. Casper tries to distract me by jumping on me and trying to encourage me to play with him, but I usually snap at him and swat him away like those annoying flies that come round during summer. That’s because I am trying to see what Mom is doing and I don’t want anyone distracting me.

Mom has tried to break me out of this habit by changing our walkie time so that I do not fall in to a routine. She has also tried to teach me some patience by ignoring me and letting me whinge and whinge until I get tired and walk off. But after a 5 minute rest I am back waiting at the door. What can I do, I love my Mom so much. I also feel a bit guilty because when she comes home from work, she makes dinner in a rush and I see her stuffing her face quickly with the food so that she can take me for a walk sooner and does not have to listen to me whinging. She buys me heaps of toys to play with during the day but Casper gets more use out of them. What can I do to distract myself so that I don’t miss her so much? Do I have separation anxiety? HELP!

Woof! Ack! Grumble Grumble Update

2007-06-18T23:38:00.000-05:00

Hello everyone,

It’s been so hard to get on and post something. I get bullied off because everyone else wants to use the computer. Besides playing with Casper and waiting for Mom to get home so that we can go for walks:

It has been very very cold and its so hard to get out of bed in the mornings to steal Casper’s breakfast of milk and Weetbix.

Casper still has a really bad habit of pulling out all our blankets and bedding which gets wet because of the dew. We usually have a bit of a tugfest as Casper tries to run away with my blanket while I try to hold on to it. Hence Mom is calling me Stinky because now smell like a wet dog. It’s all Casper’s fault. I want to smell nice.

Casper still poops 4 to 5 times a day. It’s funny to watch Mom walking around the backyard with her spade and plastic bag picking up Casper’s “presents”. She thinks she’s finished and lo and behold, she finds another gift waiting for her. And Casper likes to follow her around and everytime she bends down to collect her present, he would lie down in front of her for a belly rub so that she cannot pick up his presents. For those interested, his presents are now almost as big as mine.

Mom is thinking about taking Casper for “SNIP SNIP” soon as he is now 6 months old. She got a reminder from the vet and made me promise not to say anything to Casper about this. It might give him nightmares. She will need to get the vet’s ok first to make sure his heart can take it. Lucky I have already had my SNIP SNIP.

Finally, Mom will enroll Casper at obedience school soon. I will have to make sure that they bring me along so that I can encourage him to be a good boy.

Over and out.

FAMOUS! (No, not that thrashy magazine)

2007-06-03T22:19:00.000-05:00

Today Mom came home and I heard her screaming Scooooobbbyyyyyyyyy. My first thoughts were oh oh what I have done now:

Has she discovered that tunnel Casper and I are digging to China? – NOPE.

Did she discover the massacre of the Orchid leaves? – NO
(Casper and I made sure we ate everything we tore up)

Did she discover that it’s not Casper who washes his feet in our drinking bowl, its actually ME! – NOT YET.

Never mind all that because instead of scolding me, she rushed out and squeezed me, and hugged and gave me all her attention. I love attention!

Then she showed me this picture. Notice anything unusual?

That dude labelled as a "CHICKEN" looks very familiar. Do you think he looks like a chicken? How dare they think a dog is a chicken! So do you think he looks lilke me? I hope so because IT IS ME! And I am now being stocked at your local supermarket.

Look at my hair. It is so poofy – this photo was taken over 8 months ago, and that’s all my baby hair. I think I’ve got a better hairdresser nowadays.

Anyway, back to how I got my photo on those goodies. I was happily attending obedience training class when one day, a stranger approached Mom and asked whether she could take photos of me. Turns out that my photos were submitted to the people at Natures Gift, and I got called in to do a photo shoot. I didn’t even have to audition like those models on Australia’s Next Top Model. Woof! So Mum brought me along and they gave us a bag of goodies for turning up on the day. Then time passed and we forgot about it when one day Mum received a box of goodies with MY PHOTO on it saying they thought I was a handsome boy, and I could go on to be the NEXT TOP MODEL. HA HA…only kidding.

The letter actually said thank you for bringing Scooby to our photo shoot and we are using his photo for this product blah blah blah. So Mum kept a lookout at the supermarket every weekend after that and I never appeared so she stopped checking. Until today, when she saw me! Staring at her from the shelves when she went to buy Casper's puppy milk.

So that is why she came home screaming my name. Mum can be a nutso at times. Now I’m wondering, should I audition for NEXT TOP MODEL? What do you guys think?

ps. Although they have labelled me a CHICKEN and I am NEW and only worth 99 cents, Mom has reassured me that I am her NUMBER 1 and definitely no pok pok. And I am irreplacable and she loves me much more than she loves 99 cents. Right Mom?

Homework

2007-05-27T22:07:00.000-05:00

Hello guys!

Casper and I think that we are such hardworking doggies. When Mom and Dad are away during the day we do our homework. We are such good little boys!

Here is an example of my homework:

That is right – we take the initiative to landscape the backyard without being told to! What do you think of our efforts?

This is Casper showing Mum his homework for the very first time (I think he senses something is very wrong tee hee hee):

Here is Casper going “What, all wrong? But but you did say the backyard is all ours! Eeps!”

I wonder what PC means?

2007-05-22T21:33:00.000-05:00

Hello everyone. Today I would like you all to meet Mumsie PC. She is my temporary Mumsie when Mom and Dad disappear for a while. Mumsie PC is my most favourite person next to Mom and Dad. I can bully her as much as I like and she does not smack me like Mom does when I am naughty. Good Mumsie! As you can tell Mumsie PC is also very trendy too with her pink slippers and socks.

Sometimes I hear her telling Mom about how naughty I am when I stay over…hiak hiak hiak… But I know deep down she loves having me around. I like staying with Mumsie PC too because I get away with so much more.

Whereas Mom…if I dare try to run off from my cushion inside the house Mom will not only scream at me, when she catches me, she will smack me on my bum too! *whinge whinge* Then she will stare at me and give me the evil eye and if I try to move a muscle I will get Mom screaming in my ear again. For those of you who have heard Mom screaming before and seen her evil eye, you know what kind of fear takes over (right Dad???!!).

Back to Mumsie PC - she thinks she is some kind of Olympic runner – she likes to take me for walks and she almost always takes me to the oval.
To RUN.

I like WALKING.
I repeat, W-A-L-K-I-N-G.
(Are you paying attention Mumsie PC? Because I know you secretly read this)
RUNNING is not really my thing, but Mumsie PC she LOVES to run because she gets to EXERCISE. This is a person who has a gym membership but NEVER goes to the gym.
?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Instead she would rather torture me by taking me RUNNING to get her daily does of exercise. The gym is right next to the oval. I see people running on those machine thingamajigs at the gym. Why can’t she torture the machine by running on it? Why Why Why does she have to torture me? I think that instead of wasting her money on gym membership she never uses, she should instead use that money to buy toys and treats for me to compensate for all the torture that she puts me through.

I don’t like running because I just feel like my bum and thighs are jiggling, my hair is flapping around everywhere. You never know when there are some pretty bitches around who might see me in all my jiggling glory. I can’t get to sniff at every little tree or bush we pass and most importantly my short legs cannot keep up with hers. So I put on my brakes and she has to stop because I refuse to move faster than a tortoise.

Anyway here is Mumsie PC telling us pssst…Scooby, you are looking a bit skinny. Don’t worry, you’ll be staying over soon and I will fatten you up while your mummy is gone. But we’ll still go jogging ok because I need my EXERCISE….

NOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Its a bird...its a plane...its a....

2007-05-09T00:27:00.000-05:00

There is a millipede in our backyard.

Actually, this is what my brother does to amuse himself when I refuse to play with him. He likes to play chaseee with his tail.

A little bit here, a little bit there

2007-05-03T23:54:00.000-05:00

I thought we needed a change so did a bit of rearranging.

What do you guys think?

I think Casper no likey.

Am I skinny enough?

2007-04-30T01:02:00.000-05:00

Pssstttt.... I am trying out a new hiding spot.

Do you think Casper will be able to find me here? I'm practising this while he is sleeping in that little hole that he dug out so that he does not find out. Hiak Hiak Hiak.

Monsters Do Exist

2007-04-29T23:33:00.000-05:00

Hello everyone,

I forgot to tell you all that there really are Monsters from the Deep.

Here is proof..

I tried to pick a fight with them but they are chicken and I got no response!

The Peas at the Beach

2007-04-16T01:20:00.000-05:00

Mum took us to the beach on the weekend. It was the first time we have ever seen the edge of the world.

Are we there yet?

I spy with my little eyes.....

Mum are we thhheeerree yeettttt??? Are we are we are we????? Huh? Huh? huH?

About 5 minutes before arriving at our destination Casper threw up in the back seat of the car. I think he was too excited because I was fine.

We met lots of new friends. The golden retriever watching us is Casey, and the big dude looking down at us is Duke. I think he was considering whether we'd make a nice afternoon snack! Only kidding - Duke was very gentle with us.

Enjoying the fresh air.

Look at my brother the dufus! He was so busy chasing Casey around that he didnt realise he had run in to the water. I didnt even know he knew how to swim.

Because he paddled out of there real fast. Actually he looked like a little drowned rat!

Here I am trying my best to look like a drowned rat.

Mum! Wait for us, don't leave me behind!

Meeting new friends, swallowing salty water and getting dirty is very tiring you know!

Two Peas in a Pod

2007-04-14T05:28:00.000-05:00

Some days, we just like to chill.

Sometimes its the best feeling in the world.

Brothers for life.

King of....?

2007-04-10T00:06:00.000-05:00

I am the King of my castle.

I protect my subjects (my blankie, ants, soil, dust etc..) from any tyrants that threaten the harmony of my household.

I am King Scooby.

..........................

..........................

?????????????

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK OK Back from la la land.
What I was trying to say was......

Sometimes I need some time out from the lil bro. About the only place where I can find peace is on top of my house. Casper has not learnt to jump on to the roof yet, but he will soon.

Meanwhile, I keep him away as best I can..he he he...

Usually we compromise.

So what do you guys think of my story telling skills? DO I have a future as a writer??

Progress Update on THAT Heart

2007-04-03T23:05:00.000-05:00

Hello my friends,
Casper went for his final shot last weekend and Mr Vet checked his heart again. I was left behind *whinge whinge* so I couldn't ask Mr Vet all these questions that I had about my little brother. But the good news is, Mr Vet says that it appears that Casper has growing pains. His heartbeat sounds like it is levelling out, and the murmur is not as pronounced as it used to be. Mom and Dad were very happy to hear that as Mom has been scaring herself by reading up about puppy heart murmurs on forums over the internet. Some silly breeder in a forum thought that puppies with heart murmurs should be put down because they won't live a full life and will die young anyway. Hrrmmp!! *Growl* Stupid breeder probably sees $$$ signs in every litter.

Three cheers for Casper. Hip Hip Hooray! So Mom, does that mean I can take off my kiddy gloves and pick on Casper like the real MAN/DOG = MOG that he is???

A new friend

2007-04-01T19:36:00.000-05:00

Hello everyone.

We have a new addition to our family. Mom thought she would get a rabbit to teach us to hop around the backyard!

HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!

Bet you thought we really got a rabbit...Don't you recognise Caper's Big Ears???

OVER AND OUT.

PS. Look at Casper's "third ear" ..its nice and pointy. Actually, it looks like he's is wearing a party hat. HA HA.

PPS. We are nice and white because we've just had our baths.

What we did over the weekend

2007-03-25T19:06:00.000-05:00

Mom is very pleased with herself. As some of you may know, there are water restrictions in place due to the drought in Australia. Well, this weekend Mom did her washing and managed to recycle the water twice!

While washing clothes she decided to wash our blankets at the same time, so when the water was being piped out of the machine she filled up a tub with the used water, dumped our blankets in and scrubbed and scrubbed, then watered the lawn with the extra dirty water. She then waited for the next cycle of water to be pumped out and used that to rinse out of blankets and then water the lawn again. Casper and I tasted some of the water and it was YUCK! “Ptooi Ptooi”

In the end rather than drinking it we decided to help Mom. Here is Casper doing his bit to help out.

Busted

2007-03-21T14:55:00.000-05:00

Mom has some plants with long swinging leaves....they are so hypnotising when there is a breeze as they swing and say to me "bite me, pull me, chew me, kill me". Casper got hypnotised too. We were both enjoying some action when Mom caught us.

We both got scolded. Mom, I was only encouraging Casper to do some stretching exercises so that he can grow up to be nice and long!

A present for The Piranha

2007-03-14T19:01:00.000-05:00

Further to the update on our visit to the oldies, I forgot to mention that I left a present behind for The Piranha…WOOF!
Those of you who don’t like yucky photos should stop scrolling down now…

…..

…..

…..
Last chance to avert your eyes friends!!!

TA DA!!!I hope The Piranha enjoys discovering my present to her....

If you are reading this Piranha I hope you didn't accidently step on my present!

Meeting the Oldies

2007-03-13T20:09:00.000-05:00

Once a week we go over to see the oldies. There is the geriatric Shah who likes to follow me around and scold and bully me. And there is Lara - a mean crazed lady who hides in the shadows and only comes out to chase me away from her hiding place. She operates on a search and destroy basis to chase me away. I call her The Piranha because she makes ugly faces at me and likes to bare her teeth when she thinks I am being too naughty. I’m usually not doing anything! Well, I don’t know why she likes to show me her teeth as I think my teeth are bigger and whiter than hers anyway! I have often wondered whether Shah and Lara are racist because I am a different colour to them. They always give me a hard time *whinge whinge*.

So this week was the first time I brought Casper along to meet the oldies.

Here’s the old man Shah checking out Casper. Notice I am keeping my distance but still making sure that Casper is behaving himself.

Casper and Shah checking each other out.

The Piranha aka Lara giving Casper the once over. I was very scared of The Piranha but I still positioned myself as close to Casper whilst keeping my distance so that I could protect Casper if she decides to use her search and destroy tactic. Don’t know what I’d do but I will do something if she decides to hurt my little brother. Can you tell that I am terrified at being so close to The Piranha?

Here’s Casper telling Mom that he wants to go home because he doesn’t like The Piranha. hiak hiak hiak.

Finally, what you think we are all looking at. That look on our faces can only mean one thing…YUMMIES! Except for my silly brother who seems to be more interested in Shah.

What about me?

2007-03-11T07:07:00.000-05:00

*sigh*

Sometimes, all I ask for is just a little attention.

Maybe if I pretend that I am sick Mom and Dad will notice me.

ps. I can't stop looking at my cowlick. Maybe I need plastic surgery to get it removed.

At 14 weeks

2007-03-11T06:33:00.000-05:00

Hello everyone. Casper wanted to let you all know that he is no longer a OUOD (one-up-one-down). Look at him now at his 14 week mark.

Both ears are fully up and he is very proud of this. Even I only managed to get both ears up when I was around 11 months old. If you ask me he looks like a rabbit - his ears are so big. Actually even when we go for walks, he hops and skips like a rabbit to keep up with me.

On another note can you guys spot anything unusual about this picture of me?

Anyone? OK take a closer look at this one.

I bet all you cheeky people out there know what I am talking about. After my grooming session recently Mom noticed that I have a cowlick! If you believe the old wives tale that little children who have cowlicks tend to be very naughty and cheeky....well, as far as I am concerned I have been a good little boy. Tra la la.... Pffttt...I just think that when I was little the cow came to give me a huge lick and took off some of my hair. Mom and Dad did pick me up from a couple who lived in the country after all.

The Wizz

2007-03-04T05:54:00.000-05:00

Today Dad mowed the backyard. He used the Big Green Monster (BGM) that makes lots of noise. I hate how the BGM is so loud and I usually try to attack it eventhough I hate going close. So most times I get tied up so Dad can drive the BGM in peace. Today was also the first time Casper met BGM. He HATED IT. He was a real chicken. *POK POK* ARF! Mom had both Casper and I on leashes and he kept on trying to run and hide inside our house. And when he couldn't get away he peed on himself and whizzed everywhere. Hiak Hiak Hiak. What a baby.......errr...........

Ok guys, Mom has just reminded me that I have peed on myself too. Sorry Mom. I (conveniently) forget about how I used to get so excited when I would see my Mom that I peed not only on myself but on her too! And she reckons my whizz went higher and further than Caspers.

Sorry for laughing at you Casper!... It is my bedtime now. Good night.

Mine's Pink too

2007-03-01T19:42:00.000-05:00

Sometimes having a younger brother can be really annoying. I caught Casper poking his tongue out at me while I was busily muching on a yummy.

Because he didn't get scolded for it I decided to do it right back at him!

See Casper! You're not the only one with a pink tongue. ARF!

Visiting the vet

2007-02-25T20:47:00.000-05:00

Yesterday both Casper and I had to visit the vet. I get nervous when I have to go see the vet because they do bad things to me! Most of the time they stick a needle in to me but there was once where after getting my needle I started to vomit. Since the needle made me really woozy I vaguely heard 'rat poison' but I was so busy puking my guts out and feeling miserable that I didnt really pay much attention. But thats another story.

So anyway this trip was no different. I was there to get my yearly vaccination and Casper was meeting Mr Vet for his first time to get his 12 week vaccination. Once again Mr Vet tried to BRIBE! me with liver treats and this time I tried REALLY HARD to pay attention so that I can keep my eye on the needle. But the liver treats were calling my name so loud...SCOOBY SCOOBY. And since you know I am such a good boy that I obey whoever is calling my name.(Wink Wink) Scooby eat me! said the liver treats and the next thing I know, I was taken off the table and it was all over. *Phew* I didnt even feel the needle go in I was enjoying the treats so much. I even managed to snatch an extra liver treat off the table before Casper got there. One more for me, one less for Casper. ARF!

Casper was a good boy - he didnt even cry when he was poked with the needle. I was expecting him to kick up a big fuss like I did but he was as still as a statue. Mr Vet listened to his heart for a very long time. And then I heard "heart...murmur..still young". Afterward I heard Mum and Dad say Casper is a special boy but you dont need to tell me that. Casper is a very brave boy in my eyes because he is no crybaby eventhough he is still a baby, whereas I still carry on and sook whenever I have to see Mr Vet.

So we get home and this is the best part - we got more treats for being good boys!

Stop taking photos of me please!

I'm shutting my eyes mom so you better get that camera outta my face!

OK Enough - speak to my agent thanks.

Here's Casper enjoying his treat.

Have you noticed that Casper is not camera shy like me - he looks directly in to the camera..hmm maybe I should ask him for tips on the best camera angle.

Over and out.

OK, as promised this is my BEST FRIEND Casper. I love him to bits and sometimes when I get so excited playing with him I cannot stop myself nibbling on his ear - the one that stands up straight like a beacon , or should i say, bacon, because for some reason it tastes so yummy!

OK OK that is a bad angle of Casper although my mom thinks he looks cute in that photo. Here is a nicer photo of Casper.

Look at his big feet. My mom thinks he is going to be bigger than me when he is fully grown. I wonder if I should suggest taking out gym membership for myself.

This is Casper's stalking face just before he is about to pounce:

Here is Casper moments after that shot above was taken. Although I pretend to be helpless and let Casper bowl me over, actually I do this on purpose so that my mom and dad will come over and scold Casper for being so rough with me. Hiak Hiak Hiak....shh...don't tell my mom.

Ok enough for today..I am feeling sleepy already. Time for a nap. Now...where can I hide from Casper to get uninterrupted beauty sleep....

This is me - I am Scooby.

I found some photos that my Mum took of me when I was a baby so you can all see what a cheeky boy I was, although my mom tells me that I was a bit of a whinger when I found that all my brothers and sisters were left behind. Thats me standing on my brother.

This is my mom's favourite photo of me when I was still trying to make my ears stand up:

I used to have a best friend, Ralph, that I played with all the time. But he has since moved away and I was lonely for a little while. I still look for him and drag my mom to the fence where he used to live. I miss Ralph.

This is me now. Well, actually this is me before my haircut last weekend. I'm trying out my "intelligent' look. What do you think? Do you think I can get my mom to get me some reading glasses to complete my look?

OK going back to look in to what other photos I have. Will write more about my best friend Casper soon!

Arf!

I am finally computer literate! I decided to stop digging holes in the backyard and be more constructive with my time when my Mom and Dad are at work. Will write more after I get used to this thing!
