Oodles of Fun: angel

About Me!

I'm Angel, a purebreed poodle. I know the book is called Poodle AND Doodle, but this blog should be all about ME. I'm the true star in the family, you know. I go every few weeks to the groomer to get beautified, and I do my nails every morning. The other dogs don't even go to the groomer. Mama Donna adopted me after my first owner's cat tried to treat me like a mouse. After getting shook around a few times, I was ready to leave. At the time I only weighed about three pounds. I'm up to about twelve pounds now, so that makes me a lightweight in this house, but I'm still the boss. Just ask me.

My owner, Donna Shepherd, wrote the book Poodle & Doodle. It's about me (of course), but I have to admit, just as much about the 'new' dog, a labradoodle. In the book, she is a 'he' named Scruffy, but in real life, her name is Sadie. Just her head is almost as big as I am!

Will You Pray for Me?

A prayer request from my Mama Donna:

I have grave news. I took Angel for an ultrasound and she has a tumor in her bladder. It is near the urinary tract which is why she strains to urinate. Because of its location, surgery is not an option. She is going to be on treatment for the rest of her life to try to reduce the size of the tumor. If/when the tumor shrinks, it will give her relief. They are slow-growing, so if the meds shrink it, it won't grow back swiftly. If it does grow too large, it would, of course, block her from urinating at all, which would be terrible. So please pray for my little sweetheart, Angel. She's lying in her little bed a foot from my feet now and is never very far from me. I can't imagine losing her. Thank you so much.

This Poodle Love the Smoosh Faces

Every chance I get, I sneak into Leah's room to play with Cash. When we get tired, I get up on the bed and sleep side by side with the BT's. You'll notice that Cash is on his favorite blanket.

I look a lot different, but since we are more the same in size, we get along really well. Just goes to show that even though dogs (and people!) sometimes look very different from one another, they can still get along. Ruff!

Hide the Chocolate from Sadie!

Did you know that chocolate is one of the most lethal foods a dog can eat? Now, I'm too little to reach the counter, but Sadie can. Mama Donna and all the family have to be really careful where they leave their candy, cookies, cakes, and anything else with chocolate in it. Sadie has been known to open a box of donuts, remove one, and close the lid afterwards leaving no one the wiser – until they go for that chocolate crème doughnut and it's nowhere to be found!

Here's a link to an article on chocolate poisoning. Check it out – especially if you have a big dog like Sadie!

Angel and Cash on Deck

Well, finally! Cash quit trying to gnaw on my back leg and we could get a bit of sun on the deck today. He has loads of energy and loves to play. Unfortunately, he really likes to annoy me!

Djaingo Saying Grace

Maybe I should be saying grace for the good Eukanuba food Mama Donna give me! Occasionally, she shares her Subway sandwiches and Taco Bell burritos with me, too, but don't tell Sadie and Ariel!

Sparkles Has a New Video!

Remember my friend, Sparkles? She and her Mama Dayna have a brand new video out with a really neat story about how a little girl was saved from a fire because she didn't panic and remembered what Sparkles' book told her to do.

And I Felt Silly in a Pink Coat!

Ava and Me

Mama Donna's sister came to visit and brought her granddaughter, Ava, with her. Ava fell in love with me (who wouldn't?) and sat with me on the steps for a long time. Grandma couldn't believe Ava would be still for that long. I loved the attention. Aren't we pretty girls?

Mama's mom called this morning and told her that Ava used to carry her 5 favorite books with her in the car and have 'moomoo' read them when she's visiting. Now she carries only Poodle and Doodle and she's read it to Ava about 50 times now.

Where's My Treat?

Mama Donna wanted to get a picture of me today when I got home from the groomer. She kept talking about how pretty and fluffy my ears are. I know that. I don't need another picture. But she got me to look at her when she asked, "Do you want a treat?" See how I'm looking at her? I'm waiting. And waiting. Hey, what happened to that treat, Mama Donna??

Angel Goes to the Groomer

Here's I am trying to get to Mama Donna.

I did get to run around the place like I owned it.

Mama wanted to show me off.

I am one tired pup. Staying so beautiful's hard on a girl.

Can you believe this?

Oh, the humiliation. Mama Donna and Leah decided I needed a coat because cooler weather is coming soon to our area. As you can tell, I'm not thrilled about it. I might change my mind when snow is as tall as I am...but I doubt it.
