Happy new year!

Let's play!

I love snow

We got so much snow this time that I learned to bury my head!


















And then I run!


















And then I do it again!




















Weeeeee!

I love my kids

Run reindeer run

My people told me we'd see the Reindeer Run today, but it turns out I had to walk 3 miles, although I did see Santa. There were a lot of people who had reindeer antlers, though, including a few dogs. I met a yellow dog named Otto, who was fun to play with, and a white dog named Ceasar, who was small and fast and a little scary and who wanted to my hat at first, but then he was fun. And I saw a little black dog in a Santa Claus suit who was growly so I hope he gets a lump of coal in his bowl for Christmas. Lots of people asked what kind of dog I was, as usual, but none of them made the ice cream joke, which might be a first.

I like the hair dryer

McGunkin

If you ever go to Boulder, Colo., go to McGuckin Hardware and look for the guys in the green vests. They have treats. Goooooood treats. Walk right up to them and sit down and stare at them and they'll give you a treat. It works every time. Lots of good smells, too. And treats. Did I mention the treat yet? From the people in green vests? They have them. Treats. Try it.

National Championships

I'm pretty sure my friend Vinny has qualified for today's big national championships in Long Beach. Tune in tonight and tomorrow on Animal Planet and the Discovery Channel and root for Vinny, if he went to California, to do well in the Spinone group today.
