Loofa Dog Toy Brings on the Zooms!

Rivet just loves this little toy - as you can see!



Oh and by the way, Rivet finished totally updating her Amazon Store for glam little dogs.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RIVET!!!!!

Today Rivet is 3 years old - and has spent most of the weekend in some form of celebration here is a highlights video of her pool party at the dog park, and opening a present sent by my parents:

Doggie playground!!!!!!

This is Rivet's favorite doggie playground - watch her go!!!

Paper BAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What's more fun than a paper bag that has treats and your favorite toy inside????

Don't Wanna Share!

This is MY chewy toy! Let go of it!!!

Everything tastes better when you're fed by hand....

Here's a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who also likes the whole hand fed concept:

Rivet navigates some foam board obstacles!

A spoonful of cute helps the voting go down!

If you haven't already, please go vote - its your right and duty as an American - but as all things such as traffic and long lines tend to make some folks apathetic, please push past that and realize that even if it takes you 4 hours to vote, that is nothing compared to the 4 years of regret you might feel if you fail to get out there today.
OK!!! ENOUGH PREACHING! Back to the cuteness!

Making Faces....

We were supposed to be playing fetch, but Rivet decided to just make faces at me instead - which is still quite fun:

MINE!!!!!

Just hanging around

Just a short video of what Rivet likes to do on a regular basis:

Chilling with my best friend....

Rivet got to hang out with Shirley a little earlier today, unfortunately I only had the camera in my phone available, but here's what went on:

Happy Birthday, Rivet!!!!

This past Saturday, Rivet turned 2. She had so much fun the first half of Saturday that she slept the rest of the day away, but it was her birthday and that's what she wanted. It all started at 9:30am when her playgroup met at a local dog park and she hung around with 20 of her friends and made some new ones too. Then we went to a local dog bakery and let her pick out some treats. After coming home and eating, she then fell in a heap and slept and slept and slept.

Today she is doing her best to keep me from studying - while atop her birthday afghan made by my Mom - Rivet just LOVES anything soft and pink.

New Toy!!!

Who says toddlers should have all the fun - here's Rivet's new "play tunnel" from IKEA

Nosy Doggie!!!!

Ok, so I cleaned out my car (I get a LOT of junk mail being a small business owner and keeper of 3 mailing addresses) and brought in a box that happened to have a catalog, a few pens, and a little plastic box in it. For some reason this drove Rivet NUTS. I had to take the box away from her since I needed it to ship some stuff out via Priority Mail.... I dump the whole thing out and it still isn't good enough - what a nosy little girl!

Busy Buddy... yummy yummy fun!

Typical Day.....

Just a typical day for Rivet:

I am spoiled, hear me roar! (I mean, watch me chew)

This is my favorite blanket, on my favorite corner of my favorite couch on top of my favorite pillow while chewing my favorite toy. In case you haven't guessed, my life is probably way better than yours. Observe:

Orange ball

With treats!!!!!
