Bunny gifts and working out

I woke up early on Easter morning and couldn't wait to see if the Easter Bunny brought me anything!
Wooo hooo, the bunny brought me a little stuffed lamb.
Nothing beats a new stuffie!
What is that? The Easter Bunny brought me a MEGA Kong Wubba too... SCORE!

I've broken all of my other Wubba's, yet so far I haven't been able to even rip the fabric. Trust me, I've been trying!!!
Since Easter, I've been working on my fitness and weight loss program. I alternate weeks of underwater treadmill and exercises. Here I am working on the big ball!
I'll do any stretch for a yummy treat!
Along with the stretching and exercises, I get to use the land treadmill, here is a video of me working for food (as always).

Doggie Egg Hunt & I got some ink!

This weekend, we went to the 6th annual Doggie Egg Hunt at a local park. According to the newspaper, over 125 dogs participated, and let me tell you it looked like there were more! There were so many dogs there, that we were limited to the amount of eggs we could find. We made sure we were at the front of the line to enter the egg hunt area, so I would get some prime eggs!

As soon as we were let in the hunt area, I took off sniffing for the goodness hidden inside those little plastic eggs!
Lots of dogs didn't know they had to pop open the egg to find the treat inside, but Mom has been practicing with me, so I was good t go!
There were mini dog bones in the eggs and they were delish!
Mom thought the wooden bunnies by the doors were so cute and wanted to get a picture with me and the bunny. Not so fast Mom, I don't want to stand here while there are so many dogs around!
OK, that's enough! I'm outta here, I've got so many dogs I need to meet!!
Oh, while I was hunting up some eggs, a photographer with the Chicago Sun Times was following me around, and guess what, my picture ended up in the Sunday paper (page 8)! Woo hooo! Here is the picture that was used, apparently not many dogs were opening the eggs on their own, so the photographer was quite impressed with me! Grandma was so proud when Mom told her I was in the paper, she said I got some ink, whatever that means! I just like being the most famous Kirby in Chicago. He he!!

Hunting for the perfect egg

Today was the Doggie Egg Hunt hosted by the Chicago Park District. I had E-Coli last year, so I wasn't able to go, so I was psyched to be going this year!
We got to the park a bit late, so most of the eggs had already been found (not to hard to hide them, when we got 8 inches of snow yesterday). I nosed around looking for the one egg that hadn't been found and eaten already.
Yoo hoo, any treats in there?
Ah hah! Victory, a hidden egg, mmm give me that dog bone! Yummy!
While searching for eggs, I also found time to make a few new friends. Check out this handsome German Shepard pup. He was up for my favorite game, bitey face!
After I managed to uncover three eggs, and Mom and Dad were pretty sure I found all that was left, we headed inside to check out the Easter bonnet parade. After the parade they announced it was time for the trick contest, but no pups would go up and do a trick. After one brave volunteer went up and was too scared to perform, Dad brought me up and we did high-five and roll over. Nothing spectacular, just my usual tricks. Sorry, we don't have any pictures or video of my tricks, as Mom was too slow with the camera. About ten or so dogs went after me, seems like we broke the ice. Then they announced that the English Terrier won the trick contest. Mom, Dad and I all looked around for the English Terrier, when the lady said the terrier in the blue bandanna. Hey wait, that's me! Outta my way people, this pup has to claim his prize!
Here's Dad and I getting our prize, a dog appropriate Easter basket!
Here I am posing with my prize. Mom and Dad were so proud, they never thought we would win in a million years, but here I am, Kirby, champion of the tricks (at the Chicago Doggie Egg Hunt at least)!
Here's a close up of my prize. I got all kinds of goodies. Treats, bones, candy for the hoomans, a ball and a gift certificate to The Barking Lot, where I take my classes and Mom gets my food, so she says she gets the gift certificate. I'm not gonna fight her on that one.
Happy Easter to every bunny!! I'm gonna go snag some of my treats now!!
'Till next time
