A new ball for Sahsha

Everytime I go through those sideshow pictures I get to tickled and remember how wonderful it was and how special those tender moments were; I have videotape of her and everything. She's such a joy to have!! She reall is. I bought her this little beach ball and she just has a blast with it. I can't wait to video her playing with it. When we go out together, she barks at strangers. I think she thinks she's protecting me. She thinks I'm the child and she's the momma! LOL! The vet mentioned that we shouldn't be taking her out and meeting other dogs until she's had ALL her shots. Bummer.. no doggie park for Sahsha beans for a couple weeks.
>:-(

I read somewhere on the internet that if you have a bell on the door, the dog will associate that noise with going potty and eventually when they need to go out they'll ring the bell.
Okay.. I couldn't find a bell, so I had this little wind chime that I attached to the door where Sahsha could reach it.. and we had been working randomly for three days on it... and last night.. I was ironing, Steve was watching TV and all of a sudden I heard the little chimes and SAHSHA WAS AT THE DOOR!!! She needed to go out!!! I got all excited and said, "THE BABY NEEDS TO GO OUT!!!!"

Sahsha and I ran outside and she tee-teed and I gave her a treat. It's was like 3 minutes total! So AWESOME!! Steve was completely amazed!!! So daggone smart our little Sahsha beans is!!!
WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!

~~~
Oh, her hair is growing back around her nose... getting to look more and more like a snauzer.
Hmmm...

Don't shave puppy yourself... EVER...

Sahsha is getting SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO big..
Think she might get to 15 lbs.
WOW!
Amazing..
I miss holding her in my arms and her whole body fit so nice.. Now all her legs are all over the place and I can't control her movements...

We tried to trim her hair ourselves.. BAD IDEA!!
Poor little baby..
She has a scalp mark on the side of head... but she's so much cuter without all that long white hair... and let's not forget about the little beard!!!
It took about 5 mini sessions to get it right and she's so cute!!!

Sahsha goes to the dog park.. FINALLY!

Sahsha beans had a good time at the doggie park yesterday. I joined this Meetup Group and they met yesterday at Cattail Dog Park. Sahsha and I were SOOOO EXCITED!!!!

There are SO MANY BIG DOGS!!! No little doggies for Sahsha.. She was kinda agitated at first with all these dogs that want to smell her but she got accustomed to it; Then it started RAINING after an hour or so.. so we called it quits and went home and gave Sahsha a bath and she was POOPED OUT!!
She whined when we put her in the kitchen, so we let her stay in bed with us for a little while.
She fell asleep and I felt SO BAD when I picked her up and she woke up. She looked so sweet and peaceful.
I put her in her kennel and she was fine.

I AM SO PROUD!!!

Sahsha is going to be the FEATURED PET OF THE DAY at PetShed.com on July 22nd!! AAAHHHHHHH!!!
Oh my goodness! I'm so proud!!!
Here's a sneak peak: http://www.petshed.com/testimonials.asp?pow=2006-07-22-1
Isn't she a doll!!?
I've entered her in the Petplace.com pet of the day contest too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It rained again all weekend for Sahsha. We did get some time and exercise in outside though. I took her on a new path and she couldn't be happier. Loves the smell of new things.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We'll try again this week to get her to the Doggie Park on Thursday; Hope there is no rain
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She was so freaked out with all the fireworks and banging last night..
She whined and whined and cried until we put her in bed with us.
Once we finished watching our movie we put her back in her kennel.
I've got the Mommy ears now. I can always hear her but Steve can't. It's so funny.
I'll be like, "Is she barking?" And Steve is like, "I don't hear anything". We check on her and I've locked her out on the patio by accident again and she's barking to come inside.
Funny!
I SOOOO got this Mommy thing down! Nothing to it!
