Jennifer & Truffle's Blog (14)

Hello, my friends! It’s been a long time. I’m sure you’ve all been sitting on pins and needles dying to know how I’ve been spending my busy days.

In the months since I last filled you in on my adventures, I’ve had an epiphany that’s changed the way I view my place in the world.

Wait for it…

I am a living, breathing, barking primer on how to embrace the seven deadly sins and thrive.

Are you intrigued? Want to hear more? Then please …

I know. You refuse to admit it because it would damage your reputation if you did. But you’ve missed me, haven’t you? I’ve missed you, too, although I've honestly missed your adulation more.

Don’t blame me for my absence on this blog. It’s human mom’s fault. She’s been too busy crafting elaborate essays that leave no time for me to make my own artistic contributions to this website. It’s a travesty.

But I’ve finally commandeered the site and boy, do I have a lot to catch you up…

Hello, my furry and non-furry friends.  Thanks for tuning in. I am celebrating my first birthday today.  It's time to break out the dog friendly cake and champagne, and sing The Beatles' "Happy Birthday" in a toast to my long and prosperous life.

I've had an eventful summer and I hijacked my human mom's blog in order to share the highlights with you. For more on what this dood with a 'tude has been up to, CLICK…

No, I am not pregnant (that factory closed 8.75 years ago). My third child's name is Truffle. And he's technically not a child but a canine.  But like Chloe and Sophie, he demands much of my time, attention and affection.

If you had asked me a couple of years ago whether I'd ever write about a dog in a loving and maternal way, I would have laughed you out of my house.  But look who's eating crow now.

Truffle is my toddler with four legs. He doesn't wear diapers but he…

WARNING!

Today's post is NSFW (for those of you who are behind on your Internet jargon, that means "not safe for work").  So if you're reading this while at your desk, stop now and wait until you get home.  Otherwise, you may get fired.

It was hard to choose the theme song for today's blog entry given the difficult subject matter, but I found two tracks that are particularly à propos: "Boys Don't Cry" by the Cure and "…

Greetings to all of my furry and non-furry friends, dogs and humans alike (as well as humans who are furry and dogs that aren't furry).

My favorite Sophie and human mom have seen "The Lego Movie" twice so far.  And my human mom has been warbling the chorus of the film's song "Everything Is Awesome!" to everyone's great dismay.  But the song is the perfect musical accompaniment for today's blog post.  Why, you ask?  Read on, my loyal fans, read on.

What's…

Hello, my friends. Tomorrow is a momentous day for me. I will be six months old. My human family tells me it's not a real birthday. Whatever. They're such Debbie Downers. I beg to disagree with them (and believe me, I'm good at begging). My human sister Chloe officially celebrated joining the Teenageddon army the other day, and now I am a terrible teen, too.

Life as a teenager isn't so bad. The humans I encounter on the street still think I'm super…

Get your dancing shoes on, folks! "I'm Sexy and I Know It" is the theme for today's blog post.

Major Announcement

I am a handsome and confident male puppy who's sowing his wild oats and is very hot to trot. I am full of testosterone. I've perfected my leg-lifting…

I am full of love these days.  Pure unadulterated love.  Love for my new toys, received on that crazy holiday that is really not environmentally friendly with all the wrapping paper it produces.  Love for my new bones, which are so meaty and delicious that I continue to act a little like a hound of the Baskervilles when anyone approaches me while I'm chewing on them (I have improved, however - just ask my human mom).  Love for my…

It's me, Truffle, your favorite super labradoodle.  I'm sorry it's been two long weeks since I last hijacked this blog, but I've been extremely busy growing.  Just think, I'm 14 weeks old now, which is essentially the equivalent of two years in human time (for those of you who struggle with math, that's 14 weeks x 7, or 98 weeks).  That makes me a toddler.  Need I say more?

I'm feeling a little nostalgic.  My days with …

I'm sure you have missed me very much since my last communiqué, wondering whether I'm still with the crazy human family.  Well, here I am, healthy and happy and just over 12 weeks old.  In fact, I will heretofore be known as Super Truffle. I am a canine superhero in my own mind.  Kind of like Underdog (remember him?), but even better.

While I haven't yet had an opportunity to prove my true superhero bona fides by rescuing another animal or anyone in…

Hi, everyone.  Happy to be a part of this forum for doodle owners and fans.  We brought home our first family dog about three weeks ago.  His name is Truffle and he's brought much laughter (and some tears) to our brood since our arrival.  

I have a blog - www.pinkmenot.com -  that's mostly about my 8- and 12-year old daughters, but now that Truffle has joined the family, he sometimes takes it over to add his two…
