Here I am at graduation day, trying to look nice, so someone will give me a treat! It was sad to say goodbye to my pals in the class, but I'm ready to make more friends and do more agility!
My teacher did notice that I'm not jumping over the jumps with my hinders correctly (never really have in the last year of agility), so before she works me really hard on the jumps, I've got to get checked out by a dog chiropractor! Can you believe it? Hopefully, everything will be OK and they'll say what Mom always says, that I'm just being lazy.
Mom's been thinking I'm getting a bit chunky, so she's increased my exercise. We go running a couple of times a week, we go for really long walks and over the weekend, I got to go swimming at dog beach! I LOVE to swim, it is so much fun, but so is socializing with every dog at the beach! He he! Dad and Mom must have tossed my orbee out deep 100 times. It never gets old!
When not chasing my orbee, I like to paddle around. No life jacket needed at this beach!
More ball time, can't get enough!
Mom, get the camera out of my face! I'm trying to play here!!
What is great about the orbee is that it not only floats, but you can make it sink and it POPS right back up at you. This is a game that I love to play!!
Finally Mom and Dad said it was time to leave, so since I am very conscious of my environment, I gave back to the lake after drinking so much water from it (yes, I still squat. I never learned to lift my leg)!
Wait, this isn't home. My evil parents took me to get a BATH before we went home! Grrrrrrr, this was not supposed to happen. When I have to be bathed, Mom and Dad take me to Soggy Paws, where they start every self bath with a doggy facial. I have to admit that I like the facial. Mom even bought the facial wash to help keep the ol' beard nice and clean.
Hey, Dad, we've had this discussion before, WATCH where you are spraying that stuff.

I hope you've all been well, I'm working on hitting all my pals blogs to say HI! If I haven't been by yet, I promise to swing by this week.
'Till next time,
Kirby

Boy have we missed you and your adventures!! Were you swimming in Lake Michigan? Brrrrr if you were!
I hate the bath thing to....just hate it.....and did I mention Kirby that I HATE baths. Just wanted to inform you.
Yeah I love my yard....and the hoomans yard too. We have 2 1/2 acres.....4 1/2 if you count the neighbors, which belongs to me too. He has a pond that I really like.
Big smooches,
Willow
You are such a great swimmer Kirby. I'd like to get one of those Orbee toys too. Looks like lots of fun.
I hate having a bath! Sorry that your people made you have one.
Your friend,

Hi Kirby,
Oh boy, you have been gone for quite a long time! You need to have a chat with your mom.. :)
Wow, you are such a fab swimmer!! Someone gotta tell Mr Phelps to watch out!
Enjoy looking at those pictures! Wow, you even peed in the water! How did you do that? Hehehe! I hope nobody accidentally drinks from it after that. Kekeke!!!

Hi Kirby! It's so nice to hear from you!

Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
Kirby, my girl is being really lazy too and it's been over 2 weeks since she did an update. I'll have to pester her about that! Anyhoo... I love the pictures of you swimming. You're a natural! It's pretty clever how you play with your orbee too.
Woof,
Keeley
PS... did you get the email I sent you?
i don't think there's anything wrong with your leggy... hope the chiro can gv u a clean bill..
Thank you so much for your kind words and kiss your mumma for me. Mum says she will leak every now and then when no one is looking, but even though she leaks tears, she is at peace knowing Gizmo isn't suffering. I know it was hard on her to watch him slowly slipping away. Peace is good. We will cherish every memory and we are so glad he got to know everyone before he had to go. Thank you my dear friends for being there

I thought you weren't supposed to pee in the pool. Oh well. Nice job with the swimming. You look pretty relaxed in the water. Too bad about the post swim bath, though. And spraying your most personal self like that, well, I must say!
Slobbers,

Hey, Kirbs!
Boy, do WE understand about lazy peeps, but we've MISSED YOU, man!
Hope everything at the chiropractor checks out and that you're just being creative in your jumping style. Bet you can't wait for the new classes to start!
I'd say you are now a champion swimmer! Wish I had a dog beach close by to take a dip whenever I want. Instead I have to haul myself into the car and drive for about a half an hour to even get close to one. (Sorry for the belly aching ~ I just think it's great that you get to go to that big ol lake right there in town!)
My girl was admiring the way you behave in the bathtub. I do not have very many bath manners. At least you stand there and take it like a DOG!
You're looking good man. Some chicas like a little junk in the trunk. Tell your mama you don't need to lose any lbs.
Goober love,
STanley
Hey Kirby!
I still squat too! My Mom had the groomer come over to the house last weekend to give me a cut and wash...Err!
I don't know how to swim...actually, I've never been deep enough in water to even try! I hate the water!
Love, Herc
