Babe's Big Weekend!

Welcome to Babe's new blog. We'll follow the progress of Babe as she grows from a 10 week old puppy into an adult. We hope we'll have occasional guest appearances from her sisters, Domino, Mia and Bonnie. And of course Babe will let all the WhiteStar sammies share their news on her blog.. if they are nice to her and give her their cookies!

This past weekend Babe had her first Big Outing. She'll tell us about it in her own words....

Because Mia was leaving to fly to California, Mommy was afraid to leave me home by myself for the first time (Daddy was at the airport with Mia and was going to be gone ALL DAY!) so I got to go to a dog show in Cheyenne, Wyoming with Ilsa and Kelly.

I rode in a crate with a purple rug just like Ilsa and Kelly did. I had a water bucket in my crate just like Kelly and Ilsa too. And a bone too just like kelly and Ilsa!

When we got to the show I got my own little crate right in between Kelly and another Sammie dog. Guess who it was? MY FATHER!!!! I got to meet my daddy Tiger for the very first time. He is big and very handsome and he was very nice to me.

In the afternoon I meat a new friend named Sumo, he is a Bernese Mountain Dog. They told me he was puppy just like me but he weighs over 100 lbs already. He shared his ex-pen with me and he let me climb all over him.

At night we stayed in a room that was up on the 3rd floor. There were lots of steps and I climbed all of them, all by myself. I did it TWICE. Mommy was surprised I could do it. It made me tired and I slept all night long.

When we left to come home I jumped into the van and got in my crate all by myself. I am a Big Dog now :)

Silly Mommy didn't take any pictures.


What Babe forgot to mention is that her daddy Tiger took his first Best of Breed this weekend. Maybe she is his lucky charm???
