Doggy Desk: The Corporate Canine Workplace

Met Emma at the water bowl this morning to catch up on what’s new in her life. She has been out for a long time packing and getting ready to move into her new digs this weekend. She has been neck deep in paint and is getting ready for the movers to come and get her stuff. I wanted to drink out of the same bowl with her, but she wasn’t feeling it. Alas I drank alone. Must be cause she is exhausted from the packing. Trust me I know, I was there just a couple of months ago. I know it’ s hard work, but trust me, once you are in, it is totally worth it! Good luck Emma and post some photos of your new place!

I got a new shirt! I got it in NJ near Grammy’s house, but what I don’t get is that I shopped so much only to get 1 shirt, can you believe it? Mom, Dad and I went everywhere this weekend, but I especially liked shopping in Soho. If you don’t know, Soho stands for South of Houston, all the cool people go shopping there!

My favorite store was a store called Uniqlo! Mom likes it cause they hem your jeans for free. Dad likes it for affordable, good quality basics. I like it cause there is a cool Japanese Robot that talks back to you and rolls around on wheels. He’s big and yellow! I tried to chase him around, but he didn’t really bend down and seemed a little confused. I guess it’s cause he’s so far from home.IF you go, please give him a hug and tell him that his Mommy will come and get him soon.

Mom carried me around when I got tired of walking and then we headed home on the PATH. What a weekend!

I started out enthusiastic and strong. I wanted to love shopping as much as Mommy does!

Unfortunately I couldn’t keep up and started to slip…

I was so happy to be home in bed! I really am smiling here, I was just too tired to lift my head to show you.
As much as I had fun, I am going to leave the shopping to the girls, I’d rather stay home with Daddy watching TV and munching on treats! 

Before I was born, I heard that Uncle Dan and Auntie Alice had a hotdog eating contest and they both got really sick. I knew that uncle Dan liked hot dogs, but I didn’t know he meant me in a hooded sweatshirt. YELP?
HELP?!

Hi everyone, I just attended a meeting about the new company website and blog www.sproutcreativegroup.com If you don’t already know about Sprout, it’s where my mom works and I love it here. Anyhow, Sprout likes being green and on launch day, we planted tomatoes, mint and rosemary and all got cool Sprout tees, so what I am getting at is that being green is cool! It’s a NEW part of my life that I am trying to embrace. So starting a couple of days ago, mom is recycling her tote bag as my doggy bag, I guess since the weather is getting colder, my usual bag is too much to handle. Mom was talking to dad about how last winter, she used to carry me around in her winter hat - obviously I am a big boy now, so that won’t do…sigh.

Even though it’s not as big, I will not complain and try to make the best of it. 

Here’s to being green! Have a great weekend all!

Today’s finally the DAY! The Day I was born, OMG can you believe it! I love today, it’s been the best day ever!

For breakfast I had REAL chicken and rice with a little chicken soup! So GOOD!

Then dad gave me my birthday present! I smelled the box when it was delivered and I was so excited to know what was inside! It was from the Polkadog bakery in Boston! It was a BEEF BOX! BEEF! I LOVE BEEF!

I didn’t even know where to start!!!! The fun continued when I got into the office! Mom, Auntie Jess and Auntie Paige took me and Mickey to the Shake Shack for a puptini! Ice Cream, Beef and Chicken all in one day! Can you see the huge smile on my face?

This is us waiting in line for our yummy treats!

I dug into that thing…the brain freeze held me back from inhaling the whole thing in one gulp!

Afterwards, I waited patiently for the girls to finish eating, but honestly I was stuffed and needed to digest. Good thing cause I got to the office and there was ANOTHER treat waiting for me!

Dad sent mom to work with a cookie b-day treat for me! Thanks Dad! I shared that with Gus. This is the best day ever, I am so glad to be one, I wish it was my bark-day again tomorrow! Or it was atleast day light savings so that it could be my b-day for an extra hour….

Hope you all had a good weekend! Last week mom, dad and I went to the Hamptons to visit cousin Emma and Avery. It was such a long car ride even without traffic, mom says it takes twice, sometimes three times longer during the summer, I made myself comfy in the car, while we drove…and drove…

When I got bored, I stuck my head out the window and took in some fresh air! Nothing like the wind whipping through my hair!

Our first stop was to buys some apples and pumpkins at the Milk Pail. 

The apples were good, BUT the pumpkins were gigantic! Bigger than me!

Then we met up with cousin Avery and Emma and went to the duck pond to feed the ducks. I really love them and wished that they lived closer, they love to walk me, chase me and my favorite - feed me!

Whew! I really did a lot that day! I will miss the Hamptons, but most of all, I miss my cousins. 

Tater here! Can you believe that it’s already Wednesday?! Almost my birthday - next Monday for those that don’t know. I finally got some pictures from my weekend at Grammy’s. On the last weekend of the summer we had a ROYAL RUMBLE! The battle between me and Gus was fierce! Mickey was on his leash so he was rooting for the top dog and playing the referee:

Here’s how the play by play went:

I pinned Gus to the grass:

We rolled around:

We ran out of breath:

We ran inside to drink water.

Gus definitely put up a hard fight and I tried with all my might to take down the pint-size giant! In the end it was a draw.  But I think he should have let me win. Until next year Gus… 

It’s almost my birthday and I AM A LIBRA! Any dogs out there that might want to celebrate with me? Mom and dad promise that it’s gonna be a fun time! Lots of yummy treats. First please read your doggy scope and make sure that we are compatible before you write me….

Two posts in one day! I have a lot to catch everyone up on…

Mom and Dad finally tied the knot and we also have finally moved into the new apt, which leaves me with plenty of time to catch everyone up on what’s new in my life!

After the wedding mom, dad and I spent some family time together…well sort of…running errands all over town. Boy am I pooped! But I love Hoboken and I miss Auntie Jess, Uncle Dan, Cousin Mickey and Cousin Gus a lot. But I am glad that I get to see them at the office everyday! Lucky ME!

This is me resting after a long day of helping mom and dad organize the apt. Helping the grown ups is sure tiring…

Happy 30th Birthday Auntie Chrissy! Because it was a special weekend A) Labor Day Weekend and B) Auntie Chrissy’s B-day; mom and dad took me out for a special treat. We went to brunch at the Barking Dog Cafe, where I got to eat bacon and hang out with a bunch of dogs from the neighborhood before we made the big move to Hoboken. Mom even almost let me try her iced coffee. It was hot outside and it looked so refreshing!

Then off to the Jersey Shore we went… I ran on the boardwalk off my leash for the first time AND I got to run on the sand and also made a couple new friends. They are WAY more experienced since they go to the beach all summer long, but for my first time it was the best. I got to eat some burgers and hot dogs right off the grill and some yummy summer Jersey corn. I even met a mini poodle that walked beside me all the way from one side of the boardwalk to the other. I was sad to see the summer and the shore go. I hope to be back soon, please Auntie Chrissy have another b-day party real soon!
