Sitting Pretty at the Pawlympics

Aroo!! I am super excited! I won another gold medal at the Blogville Pawlympics!

The event was "Sitting Pretty". Lots of dogs and kitties entered. It was grreat fur me because I haven't been in Blogville vvery long butt I am meeting a lot of new furriends through these Pawlympic competitions.

Here I am sitting pretty.  What do you think of my style?

I luv the way Dory put a heart over the i in my name!

Dory did a genius job organizing this event. There were a lot of  contestants butt she managed to keep everything and everyone under control. She also showed her own sitting pretty skills. What an amazing dog she is!

The pawthletes were all so grrreat that everyone got a medal. I am woofy pleased wid mine! Everyone I live wid is impressed, especially the kitty Hazuzu. He is not very sociable but maybe next year he will pawticipate.

This is my medal:

I love my medal!

Tonight I think I will sleep wid my medal.

Thank you Dory fur making this pawssible! 

Until Next Time,

My next Pawlympics event is Ear Flapping, which will be on August 10th. That gives me a couple of days to practice Munro Bagging, which will be on  August 16th. Since Munro bagging is all about climbing the mountains of Scotland, it seemed like a good idea to fly over to Europe and practice there.

I was able to get a quick flight from Vancouver, and here I am this morning in Bonnie Scotland! Pawsome!

The air here is fresh and cool. So far, I  have found that the dogs are the same as the ones in Vancouver. I thought they would all be like Sweet William the Scot or Bouncing Bertie, but really, they are all different, just like the dogs in Vancouver.

I thought that Scottish dogs would mostly look like this one!

As soon as my plane landed I took a taxi from the airport to the mountains. In my luggage I brought a pup tent so I don't have to worry about finding a dog friendly hotel. I'll sleep in the countryside. The taxi dropped me off at a good climbing spot and I started walking. The first human I came across was this guy:

Aroo! Aroo!

Dogs don't like the bagpipes much but Mimi does. She says she like them because she has so many Scottish ancestors. She thinks it's genetic.

I have a lot of French and Maltese ancestors because my dad was a Maltese Terrier and my mom was a French Poodle. They didn't know about bagpipes.

Anypaw, here I am in Scotland and even though I am small I am brave to be here widout my pack. Maybe I will call myself Braveheart Louis!

Sending my woofy rruff to Mimi, Hazuzu my kitty, Eric and all my Blogville furriends.  I gotta go now and practice my munro bagging!

Blogville Swimming Pawlympics Event

I am sooo dog-gone woofed! I won a gold medal in the swimming event at the Blogville Pawlympics. Swimming was sponsored by Murphy and Stanley, who did a grrreat job.

This is amazing! All of the contestants were grrreat! So many dogs and even a kitty named Shadow. That Shadow can really swim! Everyone was so good that the judges couldn't decide so everyone got a medal. So all of the dogs and the kitty won! This is good because it's the act of pawticipating that is the most impawtant.

The judges like the way that I drink the water while I swim. There was one other dog named Macy who did the same thing. Pretty good technique, don't you think? You can take a look at Macy over at Murphy and Stanley's blog.

This is me:

They loved my skill and technique!

Well now you know why I love Blogville so much! I've made new furriends and I've got off my butt to play sports. Woof!!

Louis Dog Gets his Rest

Louis Dog here... Just a quick post to let my furriends know that I'm resting up tonight so I'll be ready for the opening of the Blogville Pawlympics tomorrow. I've been in training and I am hoping for the gold!

The Pawlympics begin tomorrow.

I know that others have also worked hard, so let the best paw win!

I am only in a few events. These will be Munro Bagging, Ear Flapping, Freestyle Napping, Swimming, Smileys and Stuffy Deading and Sitting Pretty. I wanted to pawticipate in Boxing and Digging, and so many more, but I just didn't have time! Bubble jumping, Tuneful Farting,Flyfishing and Snuggling would have also been good for me. The only one I couldn't have pawticipated in was Fetching. I can never bring things back pawperly.

Thank you to everyone who organized the pawsome Blogville pawlympics. You have all been so welcoming to me.

Resting up for tomorrow!

So grr'night everybody. Good luck to all!
