And the first word is Riley and Chassie's!

Well – Happy New Year everyone! Riley and Chassie here. Remember us - the cute ones? We told Sparkles to take a break – that we would handle the first post. Sorry it has taken so long….we ARE dogs you know, and it’s hard to type with your paws.

We overheard Bob and Jennie talking, and they have lots of very cool human stuff planned for 2012. Jennie will be doing some Technique classes – featuring Ranger Products (‘cause for some reason they seem to love this Tim guy - and he's not even a dog.)

Bob is sourcing out new and exciting things to bring into the store this year. He is kinda a hunter of sorts….and we love that he spends the day in the store on the hunt and feeds us “accidentally” by dropping things. He is just an all round cool dude in our books (ah…do we have books???)


We do have a bone to pick with Bob and Jennie though…..we heard they were going away again. This time they are going to California – to CHA Winter 2012 – and they are leaving us at home! Not fair! Give us a pair of sunglasses, and we can be really cool California dogs just like in the song….” I wish they all could be California …..dogs……..” You know - the Beach Boys song....


They have a habit of leaving us at important times. Remember when they went to CHA last summer in Chicago? They left us here to deal with the birth of their first grandchild. Again – it was a good thing we were here to deal with everything. Riley and Chassie to the rescue as usual!


Speaking of leaving us at important times – did you know they left us alone on New Year’s Eve? That’s one of the most important food dropping days of the year….and no one was around to drop anything!


They both got really dressed up, and told us they were going to Jordan and Gillian’s wedding. Bark! Bark! Another important food dropping event! What were they thinking leaving us at home?


We to this day don’t know if they really went to a wedding – we have never seen any pictures. We’re sure there were tons of young people with cell phones with cameras in them….and yet not one picture was taken! Humans! They were probably so busy dropping food on the floor all night, they didn't have time to take pictures! So – we’ll believe there was a wedding when we see the proof. We can tell you though -that Bob and Jennie look really good when you clean them up….we are the witnesses!


So – stay tuned for an even better year than 2011. Come in to the store and we will give you the scoop on what’s to come. We can be easily bought. All we ask is that you drop a little food……

Someone's having a birthday!

Hi - remember us? 

We're Riley and Chassie, the really cute members of the family. 


We just wanted to let you know we are so excited because - Mom's birthday is Sunday! Yes - our mom, Jennie is going to be.....ahh...well, somewhere between 232 and 800 dog years old! She won't say - humans are so silly that way.


We hope there's cake - and maybe that cute kid Langdan will come over and he and Bob will drop cake on the floor for us!


You know, if humans were as smart as dogs, they would have 8 birthdays a year - think about it - that means 8 birthday cakes!


Anyway - we would love it if you would wish Jennie a happy birthday by clicking on the comment section below.

A new addition to the family!


Apparently I am being upstaged by the store mascots for this post......

Uncle Riley and Aunt Chassie are howling the announcement of the birth of their nephew, Langdan on July 21. Here's what they had to say:

"It's a good thing we were here, because Bob and Jennie were on a train coming back from CHA in Chicago when Langdan was born!  

Humans have it so easy, there was only one in the litter.  He weighed 8 lbs though - so we guess it is a good thing there was only one. He belongs to Jordan and Gillian who should be great parents because they have already had practice training their dog Kya.

He's a cute pup - (see pic below)  and apparently he has lots of hair.....which is always a good thing in our opinion.  We haven't had a chance to lick him yet - but we are betting that he tastes mighty good!  We can't wait to play with him.  

We also can't wait until he is old enough to come and visit, and drop food on the floor for us!

Oh, by the way - this means Jennie and Bob are now the "g" word......... you know what we mean....."
