Please enjoy this slideshow my mom put together of me and Penne. I think it shows us at our most adorableness!

My Sister

No news on the project today; just wanted to introduce my sister, Penne Pasta (see a theme here with our names?! My mom is obsessed with food!) We call her Penne for short, but my mom usually calls her Pen-Pen. She's a good friend; we are usually inseparable. She takes good care of me; licks my mouth after I drink water, nudges me outside before bedtime so we can go to the bathroom before bed, and is always a willing play mate. Penne was pretty sad when our family's first Lab, Pepper, died, but I have been good company for her, and she has definitely taken me under her paw. Love you, Sis!

Great Day to be a Dog

Truly, who could ask for nicer weather?! My mom and dad took Penne and me for a great walk yesterday, and today I know we are bound to go for another one! Eighty-some degrees and the sun is shining... who could ask for anything more?! My mom is always amazed that, after a killer long walk, I still want her to throw the ball with me in the backyard! I'm so proud to be of a breed whose main characteristics are gentleness and undying energy!
So... with summer coming closer to an end than my mom would like to think about, realistically she and my dad know that The 1000 Lab Project isn't going to happen within a year. I know they are still committed to it in their hearts, but realistically it will take much more than a year to pull off, maybe two... maybe more. But all good things come to those who wait, right? That's what I always try to remember when I'm thinking about my evening bowl of kibble, so I guess that would apply to humans as well. It's okay; I can live with that. I know they can, too.
