Long Time No Bark

It's been a long time since I wrote about my adventures. Over a year! And a lot has happened! When I first came home, I was really skinny. Even though I was fluffy, you could feel my spine when you petted me. And my nails were really long. Instead of growing curved, like most dogs, they would grow straight. My human wonders if they're supposed to do that, so that I can dig easily, but they were still really long. So my human has been slowly making them get shorter.

For a while, some small humans lived with us. Four of them. Them and their dad.

Here's a picture of them:


From the left, that's Erin, Madison, Allison, someone I don't know, and Garrett. This is a picture that they took when we were at the dog park. I love going to the dog park! It is so much fun meeting new dogs!

They stayed with us all summer long. But then they went home. They still come and visit on the weekends, though.

Since I came here, I have gained 8 pounds. This was a while ago, and sometimes my human's Dad says that I am fat, but he forgets that I'm bigger than the average Silky Terrier. Most of them are at least 3-4 inches smaller than me, so they weigh less. All I know is that I am all muscle and can run really fast.

Today I got to go to a really cool place. It was outside and had lots of cool smells and a bunch of other dogs! I got to wander all over *without* a leash on. It was like when we went for a walk up at my human's Mom/brother's house in Maine.

I got to wander around and smell all over and even went walking with a friend, a black German Shepard named Bailey. She was very nice and didn't scare me at all. I like it when I get to go exploring.
