Hiking!
I forgot to add that Ari and I found out Charlie LOVES to hike! We've been taking him on a small trail behind my house and he just has so much fun being the leader and climbing up that MTN. I should have known those giant elephant paws were good for something! =)
Thats all for now.
He even posed nicely for the picture.
Thats all for now.
Gone for the weekend.
Goooood morning everyone! So I know I never posted a video of Charlie staying in his place I guess I got lazy! Just so you can sleep better at night now he is doing very well with his place. Stays there when people come in and stops the whole barking thing quite quickly now. Sometimes I don't always make him go to his place, because I think it is good for him to be aware of some people. He is my guard dog after all! ;o)
On to bigger and better things, this past weekend my boyfriend Ari and I went up to Big Bear (a local MTN by our house in Palm Springs where we can enjoy some snow). We made a group decision and decided to leave Charlie behind; parents have to get away from their kids once in a while! Keeps the sanity!
You know the saying, "it takes a village to raise a child."?? SOO very true!! We had a lineup of people watching him, and we were only gone for 2 days! We left him with Ari's roommates for the first part of our trip and then Charlie's second mom Lindsey picked him up for the end part of the trip. She now understands why people are so protective of their weenies! They are truly like little children. He was sad without us and of course did not understand why he couldn't come. Once she had him at home she said he would get up from cuddling periodically to walk around the house looking for us. :o( Poor kid. Another reason for not taking him was also because he is such a summer dog. He just freezes in our 60 degree weather! Pretty much wears his sweater all day. Sometimes he even shivers if I have the A/C on too much, silly pooch. So you can now stop your judgmental thoughts about me not taking him.... I really was looking out for his best interest!!
Luckily enough we did get a free night stay to come back up and visit Big Bear so maybe on that trip we will take the little weenie. We did miss and talk about him the whole time and I'm thinking maybe if we actually take him somewhere where it is cold he won't be so cold down here in Palm Springs where it's a beautiful 70 degrees in the winter. Wishful thinking!
I'll end this small note with a picture of Charlie taken this AM...he moved his bed all the way to the heaters so he could be warm and cozy in our 46 degree cool morning! =)
