Fun in the Snow!

Mummy says I have "lub handles". I don't know what they are, but I don't like it!

First Snow of 2009

Thanksgiving Rawhides

Dolly

Yesterday Mummy brought home Dolly, my old neighbor. She moved away in August. Dolly is sad her Mummy left without her, but I am sharing my rawhides with her. She doesn't want to play though. :( We went to the dog park today and she tried to bark at all the dogs there, but Mummy told her no! She didn't know what to do at the dog park. Everyone was running around her. She still hasn't eaten or drank any water. She also sleeps a lot. Maybe soon she will realize that it is OK here. Mummy says she's going home on Sunday.

A-OK!

It's been awhile since I have posted huh? I guess that's what happens when I am feeling better! Last May I got really sick and had Mummy really worried. I got poked at lot at Dr. O's. :( I didn't like it at all! But the last time I went and got poked he said I was A-OK again! Yipee! Of course, I already knew, but it was good for Mummy to hear so she could stop worrying about me! I also had two papillomas. Dr. O removed those also and I am ok now! Guess I shouldn't go sniffing strange doggies! Now all I want to do is just play play play! Mummy tells me we are meeting up with some other Shar Peis this Sunday. I can't wait!

September 2009 Meet Up

Mummy and I went to Jet & Remy's house today! I got to meet THREE new friends! One of them turned out to be my half sister, Gemi! We have the same daddy...she is two years younger than I am. She looks a lot like my other half sister Gretchen, Mummy said. Gemi brought her little brother Loki. I think Mummy was in love with him! I thought she was going to bring him home with us! Third, but not least and not a pei, was Skye. She is a Pittie mix. She liked to wrestle, but not with me! Skye played with Loki the whole time. Oh well...the rest of us played chase a bit. Besides Jet & Remy (it WAS at their house!) Monte and Ziggy came too. There were SIX peis there! Eight doggies total...two were honorary pei :)

Here's a video of Loki snoring:



Here's a video of Skye chasing the water from the hose!

August 2009 Meet Up & Moving Day

We had our meet up this month and we have a new member join us...Ivy! We also met a lot of other friends as well as Wrinkles and Meatball! Mummy was in love with Moe. I thought I was going to get a new little brother! There were sooo many friends there an the weather was perfect! It wasn't hot at all. We had a blast! No one wanted to leave even though we were tired.

My neighbor Dolly, her sister, Tessa, and her mummy moved away today. No more yapping! Yipee! But Mummy tells me that I am going to get two new neighbors! Can't wait to meet them! Maybe they will want to wrestle :)

Anyway...check out our pictures!

Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix 2009

I am pooped! Grandma and Grandpa came to visit for the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix! I saw lots of friends at the races this weekend, but some did not want to be friends with me. I wished I wasn't leashed because it would've been fun to play! You should've seen all the grass there was! There was also a lot of good food. Everyone was cooking such yummy smelling food! The cars were loud and fast! Turned out to be nice weather...it wasn't hot! We did A LOT of walking! I slept really well :) Here are some pictures:

June 2009 Meet Up at North Park's Dog Park!

Today Mummy took me back to the new dog park! We were having a Shar Pei meet up, but nobody except for Jet and Remy showed up. :( Not even anyone from the area! But I had fun anyway....I found a Boxer to wrestle with and I met a lot of new friends! See my pictures:

Dog Park Weekend!

Yesterday, Mummy and I went to a picnic. I ate half of a cheese burger patty and another half of a hamburger patty! I also got a yummy all beef hot dog! Then after all that food we went to a new dog park! Mummy says next month, June, we'll have our Shar Pei meet up there!

Today we went to my dog park. Wrinkles couldn't make it for our meet up, but Jet and Remy came and I met another Shar Pei mix, Rocko! He's a Chesapeake x Pei. You'll see his cute picture. Mummy wanted to take him home! It was an awesome day today, sunny, cool, but warm!

New Castle Dog Show 2009

Mummy didn't take me because it was too hot and there are too many germs at the show, but here are some of the pictures she brought home!

Hi everyone!

I am feeling better finally! I want you to read this and forward it to anyone that loves animals. The Humane Society of the US is NOT for helping us out.

Vet Re-check

Samba went to the vet again today for a re-check. His kidney values were not looking so good. We were given anti-vomiting pills since he puked about 5 times yesterday, some probiotics and two bags of sub-q fluids. He is eating chicken baby food tonight and even ate string cheese along with some treats. I am hoping this means he is on the mend.

Beware!

Still Not Feeling Up to Par

Hey there...this is Samba's "Mummy". He is still not feeling well enough to post or to eat today. His fever returned in the late evening tonight, but seems to be going down again. Luckily, no where near as high as yesterday morning! I took him to the vet this afternoon and we hashed out all the possibilities. Got a urinalysis and blood work done as well as 1 liter of Sub-q fluids. He sure looked funny when he came out! It's a good thing he has all that skin to store all that water! He did gobble down 4 cookies at the vet's. Normally he won't touch these, but I guess he felt well enough at that point to eat and was hungry! He had some jerky treats too at home, but nothing close to real food. He even had a hard time eating his favorite, yogurt. Still very slow movement and sleeping lots. They did find something that was going on in one of his forehead wrinkles so that might be the cause. He's on Clavamox for a week so that should clear up anything he might have. Anyhow, keep him in your thoughts! He will be back soon as he feels better!

Not Feeling Good

Fun at South Park

Dog Park

Mummy took pictures at the dog park again. So here they are:



I had fun, but I don't like carrying my own water. :(

Omg! Omg! Omg!

Wow is today my birthday or something? Mummy got up, ate, fed me...everything normal right? Then we went for a WALK! When we got home, Mummy left and I took a nap upstairs. When Mummy got home, we went for ANOTHER walk! This time we went to my neighbor, Jay's, house! I wanted to play with Jay and then Mummy disappeared again, but she came back with another leash! I was so happy happy happy! Jay pulled Mummy a lot and he was really excited too. We got to the park and Mummy tied us up, took my backpack off of me and put it on Jay! AHHHHH!!!! So nice! Little Jay got scared of the backpack, but I told him it was ok and we walked and walked and walked! When we got home Mummy let us wrestle! I am pooped out now...I think I'll sleep to celebrate :) Zzzz!!!

Backpacking

My nose is almost all healed up! Just a little pink still where the pigment hasn't come back yet. Sorry I haven't posted for awhile...it's been really cold here in Pittsburgh! We haven't really been out much. I did get cabin fever! Mummy bought me new toys and a backpack! We have gone for two walks with it already and it sure makes me TIRED! I get fed after my walks and I am so pooped out I just sleep all day!


This is a picture Mummy took...she caught Daddy and I cuddling!

We decided to cancel Shar Pei meet ups until the warmer spring days. This winter was just too cold! So until then....I'm going back to bed :)

Happy New Year!

It's a tough life as a dog. You don't get to go anywhere you want to with your humans. I spent New Year's Eve at home, alone, while Mummy & Daddy went out. It's ok though. I was at least at home! You can bet I was alert and guarding the house! I hope everyone has a happy and prosperous 2009!

My nose is healing nicely and I am no longer mad at Mummy & Daddy. :)
