Techy Stuff

Hi everyone! Sorry no pictures today. I wanted to show everyone how to comment, and follow this blog, since I've had people asking me how. And I wanted to tell everyone about a new blog called The Paw Print. My friend saw my blog and she decided to make one about her dog named Bailey. She's super cute and even looks a little bit like Bonnie! She would really like some more views and followers! Heres the link: pawprintbailey.blogspot.com

Now this is how to comment on a blog:

1. On a post, at the bottom, there will be a link that says "_ comments" For example it would be "0 comments" or
"1 comments". So click on that link, its pretty small so you have to look for it.

2. Then it will show the post, and the comments for the post, and then there is a white box
titled "Post a Comment".

3. Then type in your comment in the white box.

4. Then you choose who you want to "Comment As". You click the little arrows. If you have a Google or Gmail account, that will be an option and I suggest that. If you don't, click the very last one "Anonymous", and in your comment you can mention who you are if you want.

5. Next, click Post Comment. BUT WAIT! YOUR NOT DONE! The page will reload and a handicap box will pop up. A handicap box has letters but slightly hard to read. You have to type in the letters (no spaces). They do this to make sure that its a person reading the blog and not a virus or bug. Or something like that.

6. Sometimes the handicap box will not pop up, and it will just reload the page and your comment is in the white box, but hasn't been posted. So you have to click "Post Comment" again. Usually you have to do this 2 or 3 times until the handicap box comes up. You type in the random letters (no spaces) and click Post Comment again.

Now you have posted a comment! I know it seems like it takes a while, but it doesn't it's actually very easy.

To follow this blog, there is a button up in the top left area of the blog titled "Follow". Then just follow the directions from there! You have to have a google account, I think it can also work with Yahoo accounts as well. Or you can follow the blog by going down by "followers" and in small print is "Sign In" and then follow the directions.

I'm going to post a comment on this so for you people reading this, it will say "1 comments" at the bottom. I hope everyone posts a comment after they read this! Please! Sorry it's so long, so for your patience, I reward you with one cute Bess picture! Enjoy and try commenting!



P.S. The website has updated so the posts are in a different style. I can make them the old way, but its more complicated so sometimes the posts may look different if I don't have enough time. Just a heads up!

Peekaboo!

Hi everyone! Happy Labor Day Weekend! I know that I said before I would be posting "A Day in the Life of Bess", but I'm having some technical difficulties with that post (I think the website had a glitch when I was trying to post it), so I'm posting this!

Now I decided to show everyone what its like to eat something on the couch (like some cheerios) with Bess around. This is from my point of view:

First she peeks up at you,


Then she jumps up,


Then she gets a little closer,


And a little closer,


And then she tries to use her back legs to climb up, but she has such short legs that unless she has something to boost her (like stepping onto Bonnie's back) or having us help her up, she fails to climb up all the way.

Now I'm sure I've mentioned before that she barks a lot, but also makes these "arrooooooo" sounds, like a mix between a howl and a bark. They are hilarious. So I was able to catch a little bit of one on video, but its quiet small and short, so its more like a sneak preview of her funny sounds. I'll try to get a full howl/bark on video in the future, but for now enjoy this sneak peek!



Isn't she cute? That's all for this post, I'll try to fix the other post so you can see that as well, along with a full on "ARRROOOO" from Bess! Have a great weekend! Please comment and vote on the new poll!

A Day in the Life of Bonnie (Special Edition!)

Welcome to the special edition of Growing Up Bess, " Growing Up Bonnie!" Today we will tour through a day in the life of Bonnie (with some cute photos to add the "awwwww" effect)

First she wakes up, and whoever's bed she is in, she gets them up to feed her. Then we take them outside to do their business, and then we give both of them breakfast and 3 small chewies. Then some one will wake up and come out to have breakfast, watch TV, or whatever they do to start their day.

The puppies then either play with their new stuffed toy caterpillar:






or sleep in many different places ( the one with William in the bean bag, look in the back, Bonnie is on the couch!):







When Charlotte or I am home alone, Bon-Bon protects us (the 2 pictures in the far bottom right)!




Then they will either go to the dog park, or go for a walk. Sadly, I can't post those videos because they are too long and the blog website won't allow it :(

Then they have dinner and go to bed, Bonnie always sleeps with either Charlotte or me, so here are some photos of that:






Hope you enjoyed! I'm sorry the pictures are in a weird order the computer just randomly places them and I can't move them. The day in the life of Bess is coming soon!

Vacation! ( at Petsmart)

Aloha! Sorry again for not frequently posting. Right now my family and I are at Maui! Where are our little puppies you ask? At the Petsmart hotel of course! There they get to have have playtimes and treats! Normally we would get the package of 2 playtimes and 2 treats for both Bonnie and Bess. But Bess what looking a little on the porky side, and Bonnie doesn't like to play as much since she's older, so we got Bonnie 1 playtime and 2 snacks, and Bess 2 playtimes and NO snacks! She's not going to be very happy about that...Since they have such great treats! One is a Kong filled with peanut butter. And the other is a " Frosty Paws" which is a ice cream treat, but for doggies! So hopefully both of them will have a great time. Bess seemed a little to excited while we were taking them out to the car and she bolted and yanked the leash out of my hand. She pulled so hard she dislocated my finger! Youch! But my finger is getting better and I forgive her because she's so cute...I can't help it! Here's a cute photo of her (a little before we took them to Petsmart, watching my mom pack) to prove it!



I'll try to post more often! Enjoy Your Summer!

Bess & Bonnie, On The Hunt For Snacks

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I'm trying to post more frequently! So just an update on the pups. Everything is fine, nice and healthy puppies! Today the dogs got out while the gardeners were here, and they leave the gates open, so off they ran! I grab some treats and run out to get them back in. And where do they go? Bess, goes to the bush trimmings pile and starts eating those. And Bonnie? The cat food! Where else? She went to some neighbors houses who leave out dishes of food for the cats and Bonnie knows where all the bowls are! Anyway I got them back in and they're fine. And of course Bonnie tries to suck up to me and comes looking for loving belly rubs, and she knows she has been a bad dog! But I can't resist her cuteness! It's too much! I love my puppies both!

And here's a cute photo!:

Bess's Digging Habit

Today we will discuss a weird habit of Bess's. That's digging. Now you may think that this is not weird, but it is. She doesn't dig in dirt, she digs in the CARPET. Yep. And she keeps a steady rythm. * Dig, dig, dig, dig,* We have no idea why, but she does and I was lucky enough to catch it out video, so here it is, our wacky puppy. :)

Bess at the Dog Park

Ello! Sorry to not post often, but just thought I would update all of you. Bess and Bonnie are doing well, no problems. So I'm going to post about something I have wanted to share. The Bess Dash! Well it's not really called that, but I'll call it that for now. You see when we get out of the car and make our way across the parking lot to the dog park at Mitchell Park, Bess is tugging on the leash madly. Then she sees the dogs in the dog park and tugs even harder. We finally reach the gate and we get in the little part were there is a gate, then a little space where you take off the leash and another gate to the actual dog park. First, its insanely hard to get Bess to sit down so we can take off her leash. Then we open the gate and Bess wiggles through and...Bess Dash! She dashes across the park, all the way to the other end, and back, usually with a trail of dogs behind her. So here is a video of her running like crazy, along with some friends ( including Bonnie and Coco).





Then here is Bess and Bonnie playing with a ball. You don't have to watch all of it, but the end is very cute! All of it is cute! But I had to cut the video into 2 parts because of weird computer issues ( technology can be stupid at times ). Enjoy!
Part 1:



Part 2: Well ok sadly the computer is continuing to be stupid and won't let me upload any more videos so you won't be able to see part 2. Sorry!
