Merry Barkmas Paws and Peeps!
Woofs and Licks to y'all.

Mom persuaded me and my siblings to pose with Santa Paws.
And while she picked a different photo for this year's howliday card ...
Clearly I am the star of this shot!
Don't y'all agree? ;-)

This Just In: Bella's Christmas Wish List!

Dear Santa Paws,
I've been a really good labbie this year, I swear.
If you look beyond the occasional shoe chomp, eye glass nibble and cell phone nosh, then I've been a perfect girl.
With Christmas quickly approaching, here is my wish list.
Paws crossed I'm not too late!
Love,
B
p.s. Promise I won't eat your cookies this year.


1) My own antler (note: how well I share with my little sister)




2) New soccer ball (Piggie hogs the one we have)




3) Bigger swimming pool to replace oversized water bowl




4) Tomato plush toy (veggies are good for us)






5) Bigger toy bin




Thanks Santa Paws -- you're the bomb diggity dog!

Breaking News: Write a blog, Feed a Dog!

Hey paws and peeps... I'm back!

I've been on a hiatus since mom took away my computer privileges. Apparently using her entire stock of summer shoes as chew toys will get a one-eye lab grounded. What can I say, she has excellent taste in footwear.

Today, I am making my triumphant (and probationary) return with some pawsome news.

Because of this posting, a shelter gets a 20-pound bag of dog food! That's right, thru Sept. 19th, if you have a blog of any kind, all you have to do is write a post and Pedigree will donate a 20-pound bag of food to an animal shelter!

It's really that simple - Write a blog, Feed a dog!

All you have to do is: include the bullets listed here and add the direct link to your blog post to the Blog Hop below.

* Each year, more than 4 million dogs end up in shelters and breed rescue organizations. Pedigree created The PEDIGREE Adoption Drive to help shine a spotlight on the plight of these homeless dogs.

* This year the PEDIGREE Adoption Drive is raising awareness for homeless dogs by donating a bowl of food to shelter dogs for everyone who becomes a "Fan" or "Likes" the PEDIGREE Adoption Drive on Facebook. So far more than 1 million bowls have been donated.

* Special for BlogPaws West: For each blog that posts about the PEDIGREE Adoption Drive through September 19, PEDIGREE will donate a bag of its new Healthy Longevity Food for Dogs to shelters nationwide. It's simple: Write a post, help a dog.

* Thursday, September 16 through Sunday, September 19, the Pedigree BlogPaws bloggers will host a Blog Hop to help raise awareness for the "Write a post, help a dog" effort.

Let's make Pedigree donate tons of dog food to shelters everywhere!

POWER TO THE PAWS!

Today's Top Story: Bella Is Cleared In Washcloth Caper

(mugshot)

After being booked, pawprinted and interrogated, I am now free and clear! Thanks to all you compassionate people out there - public outcry and crime tips lead to my freedom. While the washcloth caper has not been solved, investigators said the other possible suspects named creates reasonable doubt... prosecutor dropped the case!

Thanks everyone!

Power to the paw,

Breaking News: Bella Says She Was Framed!

Help, I’ve been framed!

A theft was committed at my mom’s house and police say I'm the prime suspect. Their case is based solely on circumstantial evidence. And, while photos do place me at the scene of the crime, they do not show me committing a criminal act.

I am posting the photos in hopes of clearing my good name. I just cant go to prison, I'll never make it on the inside. Please help me solve this heinous crime. Any leads, tips and character references can be left under the comments section. No names required. Spread the word and help save me from the Big House. Thank you.
