Okay, okay, okay. I know. It’s been yet another year since I last posted. But you gotta understand, it’s hard to type when you have paws as big as mine. But I’m done making excuses. I need to be a better blogging puppy. I know. New year, new me. (Just ignore the fact that the year is already a quarter done)
So, today Taylor was being especially nice. Like, way too nice. She took me to walk around campus. I was immediately suspicious. She knows campus is my all-time favorite sniffing spot. However, when we arrived, I knew it was all too good to be true. As usual everything revolved around Taylor. She wanted to take pictures for her stupid blog. Does anyone even read that shit? Oops, my mom has been trying to encourage me to swear less. But anyways, nobody wants to see pictures of Taylor anyways. I’m the real star. Never forget it.
So, here she is posing and shit stuff. And I don’t want to be any part of it. You know what I want to be doing? Running around. Eating leaves. Chasing the bunnies. Chasing the students. Especially the international ones who squeal really loudly and look frightened when they see me. Have they never met a dog as cute as me before? Well, obviously not.
Love,
Oaks

So I have to admit that I’ve been slacking a little on this blog. I’m embarrassed to say that it’s almost been an entire year since I last gave y’all a little pupdate on my life. But I’ve been busy doing some doggy things. I’ve been taking agility classes 24/7 so that I can be the most talented dog ever. I’ve learned so many new tricks that I can’t wait to show you one day!
I’ll be turning four in a month and a half and I can’t wait. Maybe my family will start thinking I’m actually mature now. They don’t realize how much I’ve grown up. I used to be such a rambunctious pup, but I’ve really settled down into being a calm adult. I hardly ever run around the house like a crazy guy or jump on house guests anymore! See? I’ve really changed!
And, in addition, I think I’ve started to look like an adult as well! I will always have my puppy cuteness because I’m just adorable but I’ve also turned into such a handsome man, wouldn’t you agree? I’m gorgeous.
Love,
Oaks

It was such a warm day today. Taylor took me outside to play while she took outfit pictures for her blog. At first, I had to stay locked in on the porch but when she saw my puppy dog eyes (I’ve really perfected them), she let me outside onto the lawn. I was so happy. I rolled around on the grass. It was great. I love grass. Especially when I get grass stains on my white fur. I love being colourful. Taylor got mad at me. She doesn’t like grass stains. She’s lame.
So, when Taylor was distracted and taking her stupid blog photos, I decided to go for a little jog around the block. I love when I get to run freely around. Taylor doesn’t love that. But I came running right back when she called my name because I really am the best puppy on the block. I’m still, I’m still Oakley from the block. Used to have a little, now I have a lot. No matter where I go, I know where I came from. Ha.

You may be asking yourself what’s that strangely wrapped object lying in front of me. Well, it’s a present. And why would I be getting a present?
IT’S MY BIRTHDAY Y’ALL.
That’s right. I turned three years old on May 7. My mom wants me to tell everyone I’m two though. She’s embarrassed that I haven’t grown up yet. I still act like a puppy at heart. But I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. I just like to have fun and run around and play. She’s too boring, she doesn’t understand.
I got lots of presents on my birthday. I felt so spoiled. It was great. I got so many chew toys and biscuits. My family even wrapped the presents and I had so much fun unwrapping them. I didn’t even eat the wrapping paper (that much). See? I am growing up.
Love,
Oaks

The snow has finally disapeared from the Earth. But that doesn’t make me happy like Taylor. It makes me sad. I love running through the snow. I love eating the snow. I love burying my head in the snow. I love being the same colour as the snow. I just really love snow.
But I also really love grass. Grass is great. You can eat grass. And you can roll around in grass. And it gets all stuck in your fur and it’s so much fun. Taylor doesn’t like when I roll around in the grass. She says it’s yucky and dirty. I say Taylor is yucky and dirty. Ha.

First off, let me apologize for taking so long to update you all on my life. I have a very busy life as a puppy so sometimes I can’t fulfill all of my responsibilities as a blogging puppy. But, I promise to try to write a bit more on here now that it is summer. I understand that you all are incredibly curious about my life and what goes on. I am an extremely exciting puppy.
If there’s one thing I love, it’s windows. I just love to see what’s going on in the outside world. I’m just such a curious puppy. Today, Taylor was babysitting me and I got to explore her room. She has this handy bench right by her window which was absolutely perfect for climbing onto and looking outside. I love watching the squirrels and birds. I even saw my mom outside gardening. I wish I could go outside and play with them. It’s so unfair that I have to stay inside. I promise I would be a good boy. I would only eat a few leaves and maybe a couple of twigs. But boy, would I love to chase the squirrels. I want to be their friends.
Love,
Oaks

So you know how Taylor insists on always featuring me on her blog in her outfit posts? Well that all changed today. Taylor went outside to snap some photos and I was forced to stay inside. I don’t know what happened. I was waiting by the door with my leash and collar on. I was looking beautiful. I was ready. But Taylor shut the door in my face. I was confused. I was rejected. I ran to the window, only to see Taylor posing. But she was posing without me. What good is her blog if it doesn’t feature me?
When she finally came back inside, she explained that since I had just eaten lunch, I couldn’t be outside running around with a full stomach. I don’t understand. Taylor needs her sidekick. I won’t hold a grudge but she better take me outside next time or else. Don’t be fooled by my charmingly cute exterior, I can get my revenge. Let’s see how she likes it once I start taking photos without her. I will take over her blog. And she won’t be able to do anything about it.
Love,
Oaks

One of my favorite things to do in the whole wide world is run. My second favorite thing is snow. Combine the two and I’m an extremely happy pup. Today I went outside with Taylor to take pictures once again. I’m starting to get extremely tired of being pulled around and constantly being told to look cute. So, when she was least expecting it, I broke free. I think Taylor thought I was too adorable so she just let me run around in the background of her photos and boy did I love it.
My dad takes me into the backyard every morning to run around and play with the ball. I think they believe I’m starting to get too fat and I need my exercise. But I can’t complain. I look forward to it everyday.
Love,

If there’s one thing you must know about me, it’s that I love the snow. I love to eat it. I love to roll around in it. I love to bury my head in it. I even love to pee on it. Snow is the greatest thing in the world. Taylor is always complaining about the snow. But there are some days when she takes me outside. I used to think it was because she was letting me play in it. I used to think Taylor was nice and selfless and just wanted to see my happy. But the truth? Taylor only takes me outside to play in the snow when she wants to take pictures. And to make matters even worse, she doesn’t even let me roll around the snow. I’m not even allowed to touch it. She always wants me to sit right beside her and look cute. It’s tough looking cute. But sometimes, when she’s not looking, I sneak away and eat a mouthful of snow. That one moment of happiness is worth her dragging me away from that mountain of white stuff and back towards my perch beside her.
But, because I’m such a good puppy, I always make sure to sit by her side just long enough so she manages to get a couple good shots with me. After all, I want to see her blog succeed and I know that her only way to success will be through me. People only follow her blog because of me, duh.
Love,

I was born in Alabama. I don’t remember much about it except that it was incredibly hot and humid and I was surrounded by the many other little puppies that looked exactly like me and I call brother and sister. Apart from travelling from Alabama to Alberta, I have never really left my home of Edmonton.
However last summer, my family surprised me by taking me on the best roadtrip ever to Lake Louise and Banff. This is the story.
Ready for takeoff! Whenever I ride in the car, I always have to sit in the back. I sometimes want to sit beside Tay, but she doesn’t let me. But that’s okay, I usually lie down and have a snooze in the back and occasionally chomp on some ice cubes. Ice cubes are my favorite.
This is my first time seeing mountains. I got so excited to smell the mountain air. The scenery is almost as beautiful as me.
After a couple hours of driving and me having a nap, we reached Lake Louise. It was absolutely beautiful. I loved looking out at the water and watching people canoe. I really wanted to join them. I barked at them a couple of times. I didn’t understand how it was floating. Taylor explained to me that they were called boats.
I was pretty popular at Lake Louise. There were a lot of people there speaking all kinds of different languages. They were all getting so excited to see me. Everyone wanted to take a picture with me. I was very good at posing with them, I have had lots of practice with Taylor. I got lots of petting and kisses that day.
After Lake Louise, we reached the hotel where we were staying in Canmore! I’ve never stayed in a hotel before. It was like a mini house. I had so much fun exploring! There were so many new smells. I loved running down the hallways. I even learnt how to open the hotel room doors. That scared my mom a bit. What can I say? I’m a troublesome pup.
On our second day in Canmore, it was a beautiful day. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping. I got to go on plenty of walks. I loved it. We also went to Banff later in the day. I was very popular there as well. Everyone wanted to pet me and talk to me. They even let me come inside the stores. It was great.
On the last day in Canmore and our road trip, it was raining. I love the rain, but my family doesn’t. Nobody thought to bring rain coats. I don’t have a rain coat, but I always have my fur coat on me so I wasn’t too bothered by the rain. We went inside to a Rec centre/climbing gym to escape the rain. A man came to kick me out, saying some rubbish about how dogs aren’t allowed. But once he started to pet me, he said I could stay. I have a special charm.
So that’s the story of my very first roadtrip! I had the best time and I loved seeing all the new places and people! However, it was pretty exhausting and I was excited to return to my home and take a very long nap. Hopefully my family will take me on another trip soon.
Love,
Oaks
