    While the first big snow of the new year may have you reaching for the shovel, a lot of Sunday Dogs can only think of one thing, PLAYTIME! So, in the true spirit of fun, we'd like to take your mind off of the druggery of winter with a reminder of just how much fun all that white stuff can be!

    Here's one of our favorite posts – Is Your Dog a Snow Lover?

  • Poppy Speaks! Our Sunday Dog Turns One

    DSC_3448 - Version 22013-04-19-poppy-westie-year old-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    I was just thinking … it was one year ago today, months before I’d ever heard the name Poppy, that I was very busy entering this world as a Westy. While I’m not exactly sure how all that happened, I do remember being really tiny, playing a lot, and having to share stuff with a pack of puppies.

    As the weeks passed, we had a lot of visitors that would come and go until two people came by, picked me up, and drove me far away to Boston. Even though I was a little scared, there was something about these guys that made me feel like everything would be okay.

    6a00e54fc42bb88834017616cb52ab970c-800wi

    Of course, I had to start out in a playpen which wasn’t so bad. I always had plenty to eat and so many toys that I had to take turns playing with them.

    6a00e54fc42bb88834017744c4db65970d-800wi

    Since I’ve been here, I’ve gotten used to that black, boxy thing that clicks and sometimes flashes (they call it a c-a-m-e-r-a). It happens a lot, especially when we travel. The good thing about that is I get to see new places and people and sometimes other dogs!

    6a00e54fc42bb88834017d3f7cd841970c-800wi

    My first winter has been the most exciting part so far! I don’t mind the shirt & boots, as long as there’s room to romp. I’ve learned to speed over all that cold, fluffy stuff until I wear-out my humans.

    6a00e54fc42bb88834017c376d34a4970b-800wi

    After a long, hard play, nothing beats climbing to the top of a huge pile of snow and turning it yellow! It’s something I can now do outside and inside (on my pads), but I’m not perfect. Sometimes …

    … when I get very, very excited, I’ve developed what’s called the “Hello Pee” – not very popular if it should happen inside and “off-pad,” if you know what I mean.

    Now that’s it’s spring, and I’m old enough to remember it this time around, I can’t wait to make a whole bunch of new memories with my family. And, I’m sure the way Penny & Ed go through memory cards, you’ll be able to follow all of my adventures. Look out, here come the terrible 2’s!

  • Sunday Dog, Maddox – Making New Friends!

    CHE_2662 - Version 22013-03-10-poppy-westie-maddox-dogs-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Maddox has only just landed in Boston and is already making new friends! Our Poppy introduced us after these two did their get-to-know-you sniffs! Click on Photos to Enlarge!

    CHE_2645 - Version 22013-03-10-poppy-westie-maddox-dogs-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Although both 11-months-old, Poppy has most likely had a bit more experience adapting to all the cold, white stuff than her Atlanta pal. But, it didn’t take Maddox long to begin exploring all those frozen flakes.

    CHE_2667 - Version 22013-03-10-poppy-westie-maddox-dogs-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    So This Is Snow!

    The idea is to stay as close to the ground as possible, that way you can make a split-second decision to roll, romp, or chomp!

    CHE_2658 - Version 22013-03-10-poppy-westie-maddox-dogs-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Well, it’s obvious to us that our new neighbor has found a fun, new toy – and it’s free! Too bad spring will spoil all the fun (uh-h-h … eventually).

    CHE_2664 - Version 22013-03-10-poppy-westie-maddox-dogs-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Maddox, you’re gonna love Boston and make lots of new friends. Thanks for being our Sunday Dog!
