Spring has Sprung and out comes the Sun

TGIF !! Good Morning friends, we hope you are enjoying sunshine also the way I am.

Relaxing in the sun

With the sun out, summer on the way, Mom explained to me that the adventures and park time is going to be lots, I am so excited. We this past week have been going to the park at least twice a day, I am running a lot, chasing the dogs and of course have been naughty going on the hill in the park where everyone has picnics which Mom was not happy with me as it is close the trains so that is the reason Mom leaves my leash on me so it is easier to catch me. I am not happy though as all the good food is there and hmm I love food of all kinds, but Mom told me I carry on doing it no more treats of free fun, so I suppose I will have to listen to her as I do not want to lose those.

Oy am I thirsty

What mischief can I get into now

 

Yesterday, I also did not want to eat my food, Mom, was concerned so she boiled me some chicken to tempt me and I ate it all, what a slave she is BOL, but she stopped worrying and realized I am just being naughty. So this morning I got my breakfast and she said you eat it or starve, I ate most of it BOL. While Mom is typing I am chewing on a bone yum, and the smell of salmon treats is in the air as Mom is busy making them for me. Those are my favorite as they fill in a Kong and my Yomp Ball so it keeps me busy and my tummy full.

The recipe is easy: 2 cans of salmon with no oil, 2 eggs, half a cup of Oat flour, spinach, green beans, blueberries, I also mix YummWoof Perfect Dog Food Mix which is full of nutrients and makes the treats really healthy.  I put on parchment paper on a baking sheet and bake at 350 till done. Let cool and then break into pieces.

Yum they are cooling

Tomorrow, I am so excited, I am going to my first Shi Tzu Meet Up, that means me going on the bus there so it is going to be a real adventure for me plus lots of fluffs to play with in a new park, I cannot wait and hope the weather will be good also. I will share the photos with you next week.

So as you can see, we are busy here in the Nili Neighborhood and I am understanding more and more daily that Mom is a busy bee, cannot sit still for long although she is aging and I am so blessed my sister Layla let me share her also as my life is so much fun.

Have a wonderful weekend all my friends, be safe and chat next week

I got my Pup Passport

Good morning Friends, we have been so busy this week it has been crazy and Mom is going nuts BOL.

 

This week I got my Pup Passport, something which excited Mom so much for so many reasons. I can now go on adventures and have all my information plus a photo in one place and she does not need lots of documents, which will make life so much easier plus less to carry. Another reason is Mom loves it as in case of an emergency we have all in one book and we do not have to worry about documents also, which makes life so much easier.

Mom had read all about it on this blog :  https://penniesplacesandpaws.com/product/remingtons-pup-memory-passport/

Mom mentioned on Tiffany’s blog how interesting it was and Tiffany surprised us with one so I am now the proud owner of one.  Thank you Tiffany for this wonderful gift as I am ready now to travel safely, it will really help making more memories of Nili and all in one book which is so exciting. You can read more about it and where I saw it on this blog post :

The weather has been rainy here in SF but the minute the sun comes out we run to the park for me to play and I am having so much fun, my favorite friend is BoBo, his mom is Israeli and talks to him in Hebrew which mom speaks so I am also becoming bilingual learning the language which is important as my name is a Hebrew name and so was my sisters Layla.

So that is what is happening in the Nili neighborhood, busy but happy so all good.

 

Have a wonderful week everyone

With a woof and love

I am growing up, Nili

TGIF!! Happy Friday friends, my angel sister Layla is watching me grow up from heaven and I think she would be proud of me.

 

We had a hectic week this week, Mom had lots to do, and she told me she is exhausted today BOL. So, this weekend we are taking it slow and weather permitting I am going to spend time in the park playing while Mom drinks her coffee. Mom has her coffee, and I have my treats which I think is fair.

 

On Wednesday I went to the groomers, I have been itching a bit so Mom decided I needed a haircut. I do not like them although they told Mom I was very good although I made sure I got lots of treats for the torture. We walked there about 2 miles and by the time we got there Mom was very tired but I as always had lots of energy. She left me there and went home to finish house cleaning and they texted her when I was ready. So, she cheated and took a bus to pick me up and then told me we were going to take a bus home. It was my first time on a bus which I did not like that much but Mom told me I will learn to ride them so we can go to different places but the best was on the way home we stopped in the park for some fun.

Walking to the groomers

Mommy don’t leave me please

Getting after the groom treats, do I look pretty ? I also got this bowtie from them

Sitting on the bus going home

The most exciting news this week is I am off a long leash now in the park and can run around like a lunatic burning off energy, chasing dogs and of course roll on the lawn especially after the groom BOL. It is so much fun, and I am being a good girl listening when Mom calls me and I run back to her, if I do that guess what? I get a treat, so it is so worth listening to Mom. I am being very good, not going far and having fun.

You can see me run fast chasing Charlie on the below video :

So, you see my friends, I am growing up, I can now run freely in the park but as Mom says to be a real grown up I need to stop pulling on the leash which I am slowly doing plus vacuuming the streets of all the food which is not good for me but so yummy.  Those are my new lessons till I excel in them. Mom is not such a bad teacher after all and she is very proud of herself BOL.

 

What are your plans this weekend? I hope you are going to have lots of fun and make memories. We cannot wait to hear and see the photos.

 

Be safe and have a wonderful week, stay warm

With a woof and love from Nili.
