Sharky Moods

 
Mama says most days I am a happy little shark, but even I have to admit, my mood can change in seconds!
 
I can go from bratty shark
 
 
 
then to cool dude shark....
 
 
 and even a Silly Shark!


 Chances are though, if I can feel the sand in my paws, hear the crashing of the waves and smell the salt air, I am a very happy shark!!

Why Jakey??

Why you gots a shark on your head Jakey???

 

 


Well Sunny, this time every year there is this silly Mama tradition. A TV channel has a #SHARKWEEK and play shark shows on TV for a whole week!! For some reason,  Mama feels like she needs to celebrate all these sharks by dressing us up in silly shark clothes, hats and bandanas.

There are a couple of perks though. First,  there is always lots of snuggling in front of the TV at night while Mama and Daddy watch the sharks, AND there are LOTS of treats involved for posing too!!


A little later.....


   
Just one treat??? 
Jakey said you would give me LOTS of treats Mama!!!

Pink Dahlias on Nature Friday

Rosy here reporting from Sequoia Gardens to let you know the Dahlias are blooming like crazy! In fact, they are blooming so much it will probably take up most of our August Nature Fridays! This week let's take a look at all the different pinkish variation dahlias I found!




Here we have a pink dahlia with pointy petals...



Don't worry, there are lots of pink ones with curved petals too!



We found a few different pink dahlias with yellow mixed in too!


This one kinda looks like a Mama hugging a baby dahlia..



...and these look like dahlia fire works, don't you think??


Here are our favorite pinkies...


These pink petals almost looks painted onto this pretty bloom!



This pink is so dark, it's almost purple.
We also like the way the petals are spiraling in the middle.



Mama and I both picked this one as our favorite...it is almost the pawfect pink!!



Thanks for stopping by to see our pink dahlias. I'll be back in two weeks with more dahlia beauty!!


I want to warn you that next week is Shark Week around here, thanks ahead of time for being patient and letting Mama get her shark on.  We decided this year we are going to be nice and let Mama make us look all kinds of silly in various shark poses. Be warned tho Mama, you better have the right kind of Chum* to attract all of your
"Dog Sharks"!

Thankful Thursday - Favorite Toy


You may have noticed that I have a "few" toys. To be fair,  lots  of them are Rosy's and she lets  me play with them sometimes. But, see the toy in the photo above?? It is most favorite toy!!
Can you guess why???



 
If you guessed because it is the 
BEST.TUGGY.TOY.EVER you guessed right!!! 




Mama or Daddy can hold the side with the bear head while I tug and tug and tug!! Sometimes Mama even drags me around while I hold on to the toy!! I am so thankful to have such a fun multi use toy!!




Mama says I get the gold medal in Tuggy
(and in making her giggle!)



Thank you Brian for hosting the
Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!

Happy Sunny Tuesday

I'm starting to get the hang of the whole training thing!
  In fact, last week, Mama said I was doing so well I could start doing "Dress Up and Treats." this started out with me touching a bandana or hat with my nose...and getting a treat! Easy peasy...and fun too!! Then Mama would snap the bandana around my neck, then give me a treat(and lots of "good girl lovins")



I don't mind the bandana, and next day, Mama started laying the hat on my head and then rewarding me. After doing it a few times, I let her put the little strap under my chin and, before long, I was doing a "stay" with my hat on my head(as long as the rewards kept coming of course)!



I don't mind wearing the hat too much, but after a bit, I noticed I was getting more "good girl loving"  than nommy treats....
What the what???

 I decided I couldn't put up with that for long!



Phhhhhhhwap!!
You better get those treats back out Mama!!!!

Feeling Tropical

I hate to say it, but I am really enjoying this whole "Human Travel Ban" thing.  Having Mama and Daddy staying close to home this Summer has been beyond wonderful. So, it's not surprising, I don't mind too much when Mama dresses me up in tropical stuff, as long as she keeps the treats coming and we all stay close to home!
