Thirsty Thursday




Oh, excuse me. I’m a thirsty boy! You really have no idea how thirsty I am. See I have my own food and water bowls on a stand so I don’t have to bend down so far to eat or drink. I almost never drink from the bowls on the floor, that’s just for the other dogs. I’m a big Moose and I’m soo much better than that. But today I’m extra thirsty..

I just got back from seeing my buddy, Doctor Jim. I’ve been doing real well and not eating too much I shouldn’t so I haven’t had a good reason to go see him in quite a while. He looked me over and said I was looking good and lost some of my “fluff” he had noticed last time I was in. I’m down to a lean and mean 132lbs. He poked me with a big needle in my neck to get a blood sample but I didn’t really notice. Then he took me outside and tricked me into peeing into a tray. That was kinda weird, but mom thought it was funny. I have some bumps here and there and the doc took some samples and said it was no big deal. Overall the doc said I’m doing great. When I got home mom gave me lots of carrots for being good. The best part is my brother has to go back in a couple weeks to get his teeth cleaned and I don’t. I hope he comes back still woozy from the meds so I can pick on him. It will be lots of fun!

Until next time,

Moose kisses.

New Moose Toys

Slowly but surely... Here is one of the new Moose toys of the new year.


This is a Nylabone, Big Chews - Beef Bone.

I wasnt a big fan of Nylabone, but I've got to say.. WOW! This is the first toy in a long time that has lasted more than a few minutes with our Moose. He's had for about a week now and it shows very little wear. He loves it! We only let him have it while we can supervise him and every time he sees it he starts hopping around like a rabbit and he wiggles his nub (tail) so much that his whole back end wiggles to the point it looks like he'll fall over.

We also tried a horse toy called a jolly ball on a recommendation. The ball itself is large enough that he cant chew it, but he started eating the handle off it within a few minutes. It was actually fun to watch because he would spit the pieces out. I let him continue this for a little bit just to get a few pictures of the little plastic bits scattered around him but then took it away. While this might be a good toy for some dogs, I would not recommend it for chewers such as our Moose.

Still on the hunt for more Moose friendly toys!

Until next time,

Moose kisses!

Happy New Year



Hey, Its Dozer! November's nice weather spoiled me and now I'm growling at these low temps. We got a little snow for Christmas and I thought that was pretty cool but overall I'm not a big fan of cold weather. Dad's been lighting the fireplace for me and I've decided it much warmer to sleep between mom and dad at night so I've managed to keep myself warm one way or another.


I got a few new toys I want to tell you about, but I want some good pictures to share so I'll tell you about them later this week. I know, two posts in one month? Are you serious!??


Check back in a few days. Till then, here's a pic of my little/older sis keeping warm.


Moose kisses!
