Guess what? The black flashing clickety-clicking box has finally been fixed & it is back home where it belongs. Today, I am going to finally reveal my very top secret project that I've been putting my blood, sweat, drool & tears into for the past one & a quarter weeks. Are you ready for this? TA-DAAA!!!
Some of you have managed to guess what it is. And yes, it IS a pirate ship & I'm the captain of the ship! Everything is made out of cardboard, manila card & drawing art block. I coloured everything with colour pencils too. My paws almost became sore from doing that. And in case you're wondering, yes, I can walk in it. I'll be a walking ship! I bet you all must be thinking, what is this wacky costume for? Well, it's for a Fancy Dress Competition this coming Saturday. Me hopes to win the grand prize so that hoomie Melissa can have a 3 days 2 nights stay at a hotel. I'm gonna win it for her!
I hope you all like my costume. Please cross your paws, wag your tails & eat peanut butter for me to win the grand prize. Me appreciate it lots! I'll be sure to take tons of pictures of us at the pet event. BTW, did I mention that we are going for a boat ride too? Can we all say WOOHOO!!!

Way Cool Amber. I agree with the others.....if you don't win, the contest is rigged or riged.....Oh heck I don't know how to spell it but you know what I mean.
And in your answer to the question on the "Stuff" in my blog. Yep, its human. But we are not weirdo's that keep that kind of stuff stashed away cause Vickie is a serial killer or anything.
Its just so's I can train to be better at what I do.
And thanks for liking my picture cause I like it too. Oh gosh. I just do go on forever and ever. I am gonna quit talking now.
Good luck Saturday. Can't wait to see pictures

We can't find your comment box on your new post. But we can't believe you didn't win - what did that poodle have that could possibly have been better than yours?
That was a great ride on the boat you had - we saw another pup did that recently too - so much fun and so much to see.
Congrats on second place but you are a first place winner in our book!!!
