I'm Back!!!

I'm sure you've all been wondering where I've been for the last 4 years. No posts about stealing food, getting stinky, cheating death, etc. Well, my computer got a virus. But now I have a new one!

Much has changed since my last post. First, my family and I moved to Seattle for Dad's new job. I got stuffed into a crate a loaded into the cargo hold of a plane for the 4 hour flight across the country. No drinks, no peanuts, no in flight movie. I tell you, it was worse than flying coach!

Once we got to Seattle, we stayed in a downtown apartment for 3 months while my family looked for a new house. I really missed having a yard, but it was fun to try stealing whole fish during our regular visits to Pike Place Market. I also discovered a new hobby: affixing my poops to the sides of lamp posts!

Finally we moved into our new house, it's so sweet! It has three different levels, a nice yard, and I can lay on the new couch and get a commanding view of my territory.

Then things changed again a year ago when Mom's belly got big and she had another litter! Now I have two little sisters, and the new one has just started eating so I'm stoked about gaining 8 pounds again. The little one pulls on my tail, pokes my eyes and whacks my head, but as long as she keeps dropping food, I think I can live with that.

I Haz Acquired...

the wonderful smokey odor of rendered brisket fat. That is all.

I Love You, Man!!!

Sparkee and I have finally forgiven each other for our, ah, transgressions. We just had great time chasing each other through the yard and play fighting. It had been over a week and both of us had a ton of energy built up, so it felt so good to play together again.

Any dogs can fight, but only real dog friends forgive each other.

The Big Fight

As anyone who's seen a Jude Apatow movie knows, the big fight and subsequent falling out are a key part of the bromance genre. And sadly, Sparkee and I got into a huge fight earlier this week.

At this point I don't even remember what the fight was about, all I remember is that we beat the crap out of each other for about 10 minutes before our humans were finally able to break us up. Sparkee gave me a nice gash near my eye, and I think I gave Sparkee a nice gash on his side. And both our ears got pretty torn up.

It's been a few days now and I really miss my friend. :-( Hopefully there'll be a happy ending just like in the movies.

The Beagle Bromance

It's been a few weeks since Sparkee moved in next door, and I gotta tell you, it's been a blast!

If we're both outside, one of our humans will open the gate between our yards so we can play together. And now that the weather's warming up, we've been playing for two or three hours a day. :-)

And the other weekend Sparkee stayed at our house for a few nights while his family went on a trip. We got to play together all day long and then take a nice long naps by the sunny kitchen window.



I haven't been to the dog park in weeks cause I really don't need any more exercise. I'm sure all my friends are wondering where I am, but I guess that's what happens when you're in a 'beagle bromance'.

Sparkee!!!

Yesterday afternoon I went to my neighbor's house with the rest of my family (nothing unusual there), but this time there was doggy there! And not just any dog... another Beagle!!! His name is Sparkee and he's really fun to play with, we had a blast chasing and wrestling in the snow (he's the Beagle on the left).





I'm not sure if he was just visiting or if this is his new home. He was outside with the kids again this morning, so I'm really hoping that he's here for good (I'm keeping my paws crossed).

It's Not Just Me...

At least there's one human out there that hates Halloween as much as I do, and apparently so does her dog:
