A Busy Week

Dear Mom and Dad, Sorry that it has been so long since I wrote to you. I have been really busy. Last week Gramma took me over to her friends house so I could meet her Yellow Lab named Eagen. My new buddy Eagen and i went to the dog water park at White bear lake.We had alot of fun swimming and fetching the balls. I also met two other dogs there.They would try to swim faster than me so they could get the ball. Sometimes the did,and sometimes I was faster then them.It felt really good to be in the water on such a hot day. While I was wet gramma gave me a bath in the lake. I was so soft and fluffy after that.Then on Saturday,Gramma took me to the vet to get all my shots so I could go to the Pawclaws spa. I was a really good boy at the vets.They weighed me and I weigh 102lbs. I have lost about 10lbs since I've been at grammas.The nice lady dog doctor said I was still a little chunky. After my vet visit, I went to the Pawsclawa spa. I was so happy to see my buddy Max there. It's a really nice place. Their was all kinds fo dogs there. I got along with all of them. I had a sleepover at the spa. I had my own room to sleep in. It was great! Gramma picked me up on Sunday. I went home and took a nap. On tuesday, Gramma and I went to Lake phalen again. I love Playing in the water. I don't like to go out to the deep end though. I like it when my feet can touch the ground.I sometimes put my head under the water to get my ball.It's really fun. Gramma shampooed me again. We like it when I'm nice and clean. We also have been going on alot of walks.Everybody in the neighborhood really like me.I even went into a house down the block with gramma and grandpa. They have a friend that lives there and she said I could come in for a visit. I was really good. Well, I have to get going now ,cuz gram and I are going for another walk. I will write again soooooon! I love you and miss you!!! Bob

Swimming

Hi Mom and Dad, Things are going great here. I had a very busy week. Gramma has been home with me alot Last week she only had to work a 2 day trip. She left wed. afternoon , and was home by noon on thurs. It rained all day so we cleaned the basement. On friday,gram and I went to the beach. It was really hot out. Gramma walked with me into the water so I wouldn't be afraid.Then she threw the ball out in the water. I swam out to get it but then I didn't know how to get back to shore,so gramma came out to get me, because I was swimming aroun in circles and I was whining. After a while I kinda got the hang of it.I even had my face under the water. It felt so good. Gramma took lots of pictures of me at the beach. You can see them on snapfish. On sat. I went ot grandpa Brian house and had a sleepover with my buddy Max.We had a great time. All that max wants to do is play. I get so tired. On Monday morning I just laid around at grammas house. I didn't even want to go outside. I felt better that night, so gram and I went for a walk around the neighborhood.I am being a really good boy so you don't have to worry about me. I do miss you though! I will write again soon. I love you!!! Bob
