Swimming 101

So the Nebraska Humane Society had this fund-raiser where the dogs got to swim in an actual Omaha Public Swimming Pool!!!! $5/dog!!! So MY ridiculous mother said, "hey that sounds like a GREAT idea!!! Let's go & swim with the dogs" (I don't recall taking a group vote)










Oh GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD!










The stupid poodle made it look easy. Unbelievable--he looks like such a sissy-wimp with all his fifi haircuts & painted nails (he's a BOY) there he went, jumpin' on in after the kids & looking like a total swim-jock. (jerk)




Ahhhhh, the baby pool, now THIS is more my speed! Look! I can touch! This kind of pool-time I can handle, thanks 'bussy'!



But sure enough, I finally got the hang of it & look @ me!! I was swimming around & following mom! My splashes were less too!! It was hard work, I'm not gonna' lie I was doing eyelid checks 10 blocks from the pool & sawin' logs b/4 we got out of Omaha! ;o)


Thanks Illinois Birdog Rescue!!

Super Model!

I got to do a photo shoot with my mom & Mac. Mom wants pictures of the three of us for her CPDT press releases. . . .




It took two hours & we did LOTS of poses. . in lots of places. . .




Our photographer couldn't BE-LIEVE how "birdy" I am. (that's all I REALLY cared about, ya'll) so there were a lot of shots where I was looking a different way. . .


But sometimes the birds were right over the photographer & that worked out just real slick ;)


The pictures turned out GREAT with lots of photos to choose from (& these aren't even close toALL the "good" ones!) So wanted to blog how now I'm a 'famous' model-dog Wooooo-Woooo! And an extra "Wooooooo" for our photographer Carrie Drummond!
