As I mentioned earlier, after a long journey I arrived to
my new home in Sofia. My new owners Lena & Dule surprised
me nicely, although I was angry with them for taking me away
from my mom and my dad and all others I knew. They received
me as if I was VIP. However the most important things (like
a new bed, lots of toys, dishes, new mattress and loadssssssss
and loadsssssssss of tasty food) were waiting for me.
From the first moment I realized it won't be that bad here,
if only I manage to train them properly and show them who's
the boss now! :)

It didn't take me long to find out how much they love me and
respect me, even though I'm a new member of the family. From
day one Lena adores me and I adore her. I love it when she
takes me in her arms. She trusts me a lot and tells me everything.
Of course I'm a real gentleman and I don't talk about it to
no one. Secrets are to remain secret.
In 2-3 days I thought her to reward me every time I do something,
well it costs me nothing to sit or lie down, or do something
else, when she rewards me for doing it (biscuits, bones, etc).
My tummy's full and she's happy :)

There are times when I think real hard in order to understand
why they won't let me do this or that, but I can't figure
it out. Why can't I play with houseplants, they are the same
as the grass outside (or am I wrong?)!! Why can't I chew on
1000 really tasty things that are around the house, they don't
have any other use anyway! Why do they give me a bath each
time I roll on my back when I'm outside and when I get "the
perfect smell"???? Why can't I have meals all day long opposed
to twice a day? Why do I look so dark in these pictures when
my hair is chocolate color?

Huh, I always get so tired when I think too much! Once I'm
done thinking I like to lie down with my arms and legs stretched
out. You should try it too, it's the most comfortable position.
It's like "Doggie's version of Yoga". So you can rest and
daydream at the same time.
The only problem is that there are too many interesting things
going on around me so I have to keep an eye on everything,
turning my head to one side and then to the other, but this
makes me tired too. Who said that dogs life is easy? However
I think it's better to be tired than to miss out on really
important things in life.

You see my job is to be alert at all times, control what people
do, help them when needed, bark at anything and everything,
carry my toys, take my owner for a walk, etc, etc. Just thinking
about all those things, tires me. :)
I usually can't wait for evening to come, to lie in some warm
and comfy place and to get a good night sleep. In all honesty
my favorite place for sleeping is "their" bed where I don't
feel lonely, but there isn't enough room for all of us. They
keep sending me to my bed. Life is just not fair!!! Smart
doggies like me always know how to find a solution for any
problem….. so as soon as they fall asleep I'll sneak in their
bed. :)

Did I bore you with my story? All these things may be ordinary
for you, but I'm very content and this is my life. I always
look forward to new adventures. I do not want to be selfish
and ignorant towards my owners, so every now and again I do
something to please them. It's only human!
These days I train all day long, every day, because I'm getting
ready for my first exhibition / competition. I know I'm still
to little to do it, but I'd like to find out what it's all
about. Then in a few months time: watch out competitors here
comes handsome Ike :)

So there you have it. My whole life (so far) in the shortest
possible description. Hopefully I'll have much more to tell
you soon.
Please feel free to come back and check from time to time
(that is if you feel bored) :)
The End for August 2002 :)

And please don't forget that dog is man's best friend!! That's all
from me for now.
