Tiny mouth goes crunch-crunch!

Watch as Rivet eats the last of her dinner - she has a very distinctive way of eating:

Rivet's playdate!

Delayed because of technical difficulties, but FINALLY here! Rivet and her Chorkie (or Yorchi chihuahua/yorkie mix) friend, Murphy have a lot of fun running and playing together:

Finally!!

We had some problems with our little camera, but its back in action complete with a new video setup! Here's Rivet opening a Christmas present:

Doggie Playdate, Christmas T-shirt, Napping

Adorable video coming soon of these two little stinkers playing, Murphy is a chihuahua/yorkie mix and full of wiggly waggly energy. Here they are being still not of their own accord:



Here's Rivet "helping out around the office" I mean, sleeping under the desk. It was a little cold that day, so of course I tucked her in.



Rivet has a little holiday themed t-shirt that she wanted you to see:

Short and super cute.... just like Rivet...

Rivet: I discovered that I can get under the couch!!!! WATCH!

Planter or Digging Box....

I had just finished putting dirt in this nice large round planter to grow some lettuces on the porch, my back was turned for just a few seconds when Rivet decided she had other plans for the "planter"

Naptime is OVER

I tried to post this last week but there were problems with the camera and youtube. Everything's fixed this week so this will be good week for updates!

Here's where I didn't want to wake up - who would believe that I could be so lazy!!

I moved! :)

So sorry I've slacked off on uploading new videos lately - but we just moved to a brand new place and I LOVE IT! My bestest friend Shirley lives in the building next door and there are dogs EVERYWHERE. I've made so many friends between here and trips to the dog park that I'm going to have to start writing them down! I'm even thinking of starting a microdog playgroup for little guys 10lbs and under like me.

Oh, and the new berber carpet- LOVE it - I can run even faster now!

Tenacious Me

The treat inside this favorite toy never had a chance!!!

I'm feeling better already!

I still have my stitches (all 3 of them) but the vet's taking them out next Monday - I can't WAIT to have those itchy things gone!

Last time I visited my friend Shirley, Adrienne and Shirley's owner traded more doggie stuff and I ended up with this awesome purple toy that Shirley wasn't really into. Its all boingy and Adrienne hides treats in the hollow ends - you have to keep rolling and shaking it around until the treats fall out:



And then a "talent scout" from Worldwide Fido found me on Youtube and invited me on their website - should be fun!

Doggie Fashion Show!

We recently got back from a great time in NYC. While wandering around Soho, I happened upon 2 really cool dog stores - Pet Bar and Harness*Dog. Rivet was so happy that I brought things back for her and she wanted to show them off for you! BTW she wears a size 4S from PrettyYoko.com, the online version of the store.

Look at me!!! I'm skateboarding!

Rivet is now officially 1 year old! I brought her back some really cute dog clothes (she wears size 4S) from NYC this weekend. She will be showing those off later this week, but today she really wanted you to see how she's progressing with her skateboarding:

Stealing your water

I like drinking water out of human glasses.....

Canine Tony Hawk part 1

Day 2 of getting Rivet the Papillon puppy used to a mini skateboard - she seems to like it. I'm still getting used to clicker training while holding a camera at the same time, so sorry for the shaky cam, I'm jugging a clicker, a camera, and a handful of treats.

In case anyone is concerned, she will only be on the tennis court and going at slow speeds - she's so tiny (and that was the smallest skateboard I could find!).

... Look! I'm Cute!

So, apparently I did this "totally cute thing" last night when I stuck my head into Adrienne's water glass and drank while I was sitting on her lap - and she wanted me to do it for today's video. I had other plans though - like trying to lick the camera and rolling around on the floor. Oh well, you'll like this too!

Dog Tired

Here's my best friend Shirley relaxing in the car after a big party - look at that back leg!!!!

Kong time!!

This drives me crazy (in a good way of course). I don't know why the humans laugh about this treat in a can, and I'm not sure what they mean by "spray pate", but I sure like how it tastes.


By the way, look how much my hair has grown since this video from a few months ago (March 1st to be exact)! I'm a big girl now and no one has tried to call me a "long haired chihuahua" for quite a while. No offense to my chihuahua friends, but we are just not the same!

Red scarf

After I kept pulling this out of the closet for the umpteenth time, Adrienne finally realized that she should give it to me - I like it and she never wears it, so ha! Besides, who knew you could have so much fun with a silly scarf?

Back from Vacation.

From Adrienne:
Watch as Rivet "helps" me unpack and finds a special treat!!

The wave

I'm learning to "wave" at you - here's one of my training sessions!
