Surrender to My Cuteness

I don't like to be left home all by myself while my humans go out to have fun without me. They say I'm not allowed to go to work, school or restaurants with them. I'm pretty much a human, yet they still leave me at home. Even though I think about my humans the whole time they are away, I have to play hard to get when they arrive home to remind them who's the boss! As the humans step into the house, I would kindly greet them one by one, but once I've welcomed everyone I begin to loudly vocalize my displeasure. I would describe to them how lonely and unhappy I felt, but at the same time stress how vigilant I was at keeping the house safe from that family of squirrels that live in the neighbour's tree. If this fails to attract the attention of my humans then my stuffed lion and I would pretend to have a fight. Up to this point, my humans wouldn't be able to resist my cuteness and would agree to my every wish.

It's Still Winter?

I think my snow angels heard my wishes because it started to snow today!! There was so much fluffy white snow that Diana was able to make me two small snow towers to demolish! It was fun to tear down the snow tower, but it was more exciting to eat the tower like a popsicle.

Mornings are Tough

When I was a puppy, I use to be a morning pup and would cry from my crate until one of my humans would come downstairs. But as I got older, I learnt the advantages of sleeping in. Now you won't find me up and about at 6am. Even if Diana tried to wake me up that early, I would refuse to get out of bed.

The End of Winter

I don't know why, but there's something about snow that brings out the puppy in me. Whenever I see that white fluff, I just want to pounce around, make doggie snow angels and slide down a snowy hill with Diana. Not to mention the amazing sensation of snow on my tongue! It just melts in my mouth and tastes better than water.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, Diana and I like to play hide-and-seek around the house. But this time, she challenged me to a game on the mountain to see whether or not my sense of smell was as accurate as I claimed it to be. That treat was no match for me! I could smell it right away and dove into the snow like a fox!

Thankfully, I have my wonderful humans keeping tabs of me. They know that as I'm getting older, my energy level isn't as it use to be. So every now and then during our hike, they would tell me to take a treat break.

My family always found it fascinating that I could find my way back to the car during our hikes on the mountain. So on our way back home, Diana appointed me as the navigator!

Gong Hei Fat Choi!

Happy Chinese New Year!! My family and I wish everyone a prosperous year of the horse filled with love and laughter! 

I feel so lucky this year because I received a red pocket from my family that would bring me a healthy and long life. Hopefully this is true because it would be quite an accomplishment for a berner to live a whole cycle of the Chinese zodiac calendar! Which means by the time I turn 12 years old I would be 84 in doggie years!

Another Year!

Happy 7th Birthday to all my lovely siblings! I have no doubt that my brothers and sisters are being pampered like kings and queens on their special day! I wish my siblings many healthy, loving and happy years to come!!

This is the moment I've been waiting for! The birthday cake! My humans have learned from last year that I can be quite a messy eater when it comes to cake. So before I was allowed to have the first lick, my humans laid out a large towel to catch all my crumbs. However, I don't think the towel method worked because I managed to get cake all over the table and missed the towel entirely.

Celebratory Balloons

Over the past weekend, Big Sister (who also goes by another name, but I've grown up calling her by her nickname) announced wonderful news to the family. To congratulate her on her accomplishment, the family sneaked into her home to fill the house entrance with colourful balloons! Even though Big Sister was happy about the surprise, she was more thrilled to pop the balloons!

I'm not usually scared of loud noises, but the sound of balloons popping really scared me because a few of them popped without warning. I was so scared that I began to shake, but Big Sister came to the rescue and asked my human to take me out for a walk while she removed the balloons.

Happy Holidays!!

My family and I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! Hope everyone is spending a relaxing and fun day with their loved ones. Unfortunately for my humans, they've all caught the flu but I'm making my snuggle rounds to cheer them up!
