Dave's dad gave Hazel a bunny. She likes to eat him. We said the night that we got him that we would call him Bum, but neither of us can remember why now. Hmm. Anyway. You can't really see the bunny very well in this picture but it was too cute to pass up posting.

Bad photo; happy puppy.
We went to Dave's dad's on Thursday night. It was Hazel's first time there. She had a ball. She also ate two dead flys >_>

Okay. No more binges. I promise*. I will do my best to upload daily, or at least to not sit on like a dozen pictures.

* I do mean promise in the loosest possible terms. More like promise-as-long-as-it-is-convenient. That's how much I love you guys ;)

This started as a rawhide ring, but she has managed to kill most of it. I put it on her nose and she balanced it there for probably a good minute--I had to go searching for the camera, turn it on, get it focused, etc. It was actually pretty darn impressive.

Hazel's first burr. Awww! She actually got stuck to the plant for a second, it was quite cute--I don't think it was quite ready to come off. There were a few on her but I left one to get a picture when I got home. I'm so evil. I should really carry my camera on our walks, but I always think of it like halfway down the block.

She looks very cute and almost saintly here. Don't let her fool you!

This is a filler post. I shall get the photo in later when my husband is home because the picture has ended up on his computer. I can tell you that it involves an injured pigeon we called Howard and a very pleased-with-herself Hazel.

I do not know what I was attempting, but none of this days pictures were any good. At all. Sorry.

My finger nails have developed lots of white spots on them from Hazel biting them. It is mostly from teaching her to walk on her lead, which involves chicken or cheese, which she gets rather excited about. I will be quite pleased when they grow out... in three years or so :P

I had some actually quite good photos from this day--it was the Day that Hazel took to squeezing herself beneath all kinds of fun things--the bed and end tables as well as limboing beneath the lowest rail on the clothes drying rack & toppling it over. It was the first day she was allowed in while I was hanging up the washing. Probably the last as well.

In any case, I thought this was just rather amusing and you fine folks are stuck with what I like :D

Hazel as Hat. Very toasty--tends to nibble your ears.

I was doing so well!

My husband suggests that I tack on two extra days to the end of the year to make up for missing a day. Well, first he suggested tampering with the date :P. Any suggestions for a proper punishment?

Hazel, on the phone with my little brother back in New York. I think it may have freaked her out a little bit.

We went to Dave's sister's house on Sunday the 12th and had a bbq/birthday shindig. Hazel loved playing with meg and Sally and (as always) weed on the floor as soon as we got in. Sigh. We must figure out why she does that--and only at Amanda's house!

We went to a place we had heard about, which turned out to be a large mostly-enclosed field. Hazel had a ball and we met another very sweet springer called Daisy. It appears that they had just mown the grass and Hazel got covered while snuffling around.
