Electric doors that open just for me! (well maybe you too!) I received one grand welcome by the GM of Hilton Resort Buffalo Thunder…with doggie treats no less. YUM!

Ruff Ruff...The Roof's On Fire!

I was just sittin around in the back yard ponderin' the good life...you know that ol' tune.... summertime..and the livin' is easy!

And that sure enough is true...BUT the middle of July is rollin' around and that means several things.
1) time for my monthly heart worm tablet-no heartworms for this pupparoo!
2) time for my monthly frontline splash of juice (to ward off all those summer time bugs)
and
3) July 15th is NATIONAL PET FIRE SAFETY DAY!

NO-no..I don't play with matches...I know better than that doggone it! But woop doogity doo-dah, a pet can actually start a fire....ACCIDEntally of course! Don't believe me? Well then, check out this story on www.myvnn.com. It's all about how Lucy accidentally almost burned down her house (and herself too dog-forbid!). Check it out...the whole story is there!

And while you are on line with Ruff-Ruff...check out MY story...er surgical adventure....directly below Lucy's story.

But just remember....summertime is fun, but stay on the lookout for all those things that can cause a downer of a summertime disaster.

That's MY advice from this snoopy pup..who's all about lettin' you in on the good pet info!

sloppy kisses and doggie hugs!

Yankee Doodle Doggie!

Yup..it's a fact. This bulldog is an all-American boy (even if my heritage is Olde English Bulldogge)

I was not only born in the USA, but my birthday is even on the 4th of July! So that there fact makes me a bonified Yankee Doodle Doggie FER SURE!

And there's nothin' better on the 4th of July than celebratin with spirit. Here I am posing (yup it's true..I do luv the camera!) at the Viet Nam Veteran Memorial in Angel Fire. Makes you want to kiss the ground of the memorial that celebrates our good soldiers who risk their lives for our freedom...and that wonderful freedom takes us dogs into account too! Where else can a dog wander the world in style and visit all these great places?

No better place to start than in New Mexico....and I will have more to report on pet friendly Angel Fire soon...but for now, won't you sing along with me.....

"I'm a Yankee Doodle Doggie...Yankee Doodle do or die........."

Headin' North for the 4th!

Chama NM....Here I come! I can't wait to celebrate the 4th of July in the mountains at my 2nd home, the Elkhorn Lodge. There's hot dogs on the menu......definitely one for me, I dog-arantee....maybe some of that tasty watermelon, lots of folks and friends to visit with, a hike with my dog-sister Roxie....and even my very favorite Aunt Patricia and Dr. Jim are comin' to visit ME! Well, maybe they're gonna visit Chama, Jill, Jim and the Elkhorn gang as well....but we all know who is really boss around here.

But before we arrive, there's sure to be a nice stop for a hike at one of my fab fav places....Ghost Ranch. A hike on the Chimney Rock Trail is on my schedule of activities. Then off to the cool, crisp mountain air of Chama!

so...here's to a fun and safe 4th of July everyone! AND....one doggie note here! Me and my canine cousins do NOT like the noisy flashy fireworks...so make sure to keep us inside and safe from all these crazy happenings. No runaway dogs this holiday PULEEZE!

Shop till ya Drop at the Lavender Festival!

Okay...first there were dogs...LOTS of dogs at the Pet Parade...then there were all sorts of great booths to sniff and snoop around...and this canine reporter doesn't let ANYTHING get past him! No sirree doggies..... I made some fab finds at the Lavender Festival.

Did you think they JUST have lavender at this fest? Well...guess again..they EVEN have Doggie Goodies...both the edible kind and the fun duds.....bags with paws and prints and cats and dogs....so many daggone fab choices...

So what's a pooch to do? Just shop, shop and shop some more till ya drop! That's my motto and I'm stickin to it! I got a brand new overnight doggie bag at the
Paws-A-Bilities booth....here's the Queen of Paws-A-Bilities, Ms. JoAnne showin' off her goods...and they are doggone grand!

And then I got hungry. Well they had all these great lavender goodies for people....like lavender ice cream, cookies and more! But wait....YAH there was a tasty spot for doggies too....with all the gourmet pet goodies a doggaroo could want. With a name like Tailwaggin Temptations how's a dog to go wrong, eh? All I can say is YUM with a capital YUM! Some tasty findins' fer sure!

And once my tummy was full, I moseyed on over to the New Mexico Book Booth....never can have enough books in my dog-pinion....and wow what a find there! Why I even ran across a famous writer...none other than Nasario Garcia....who's penned many a fine New Mexico book!

Made me think a lot....hmmmm...it's about time this dog got to penning...er pawing my first book. ...and now I am dog-spired to do just that! Think I'll call it "Jack's Story...from Shelter to Star" Yep, that's it...that's the title...now I just gotta get down to dog-business and start workin' on it.

Yep, next year at the Lavender In the Village Fest...you'll find your canine bud paw-digraphing his very own book...I dog-promise!
