My Human's a Labrador!!

She took this cute quiz on Dogster to find out what dog breed she would be. BOL! A Labrador!! Sounds a lot like her though:

Labrador Retriever: The Caretaker

Your family is what makes you tick, and you never "flea" from an opportunity to hang out with the whole gang. A family picnic complete with hot dogs, deviled eggs and a refreshing swim in the lake is hard for you to stray from. Your sparky temperament and dogged intelligence mean you are not only a blast to hang out with, but great to work with as well. Your close pals appreciate your patience and forgiveness, knowing you'd rather let sleeping dogs lie than dwell on the mishaps of the past. Your dashing good looks may one day lead to a modeling career, if only you can tame the unfortunate clumsiness that sometimes causes you to go flailing from the catwalk.

What dog breed are you? I'm a Labrador Retriever! Find out at Dogster.com

Click on the photo to have your human take the quiz. I'd love to hear what your humans are..and if they are a similar breed to you!

Swiss Mannie's in the Snow

Found this cute video on YouTube. Three MTs in the snow in Switzerland. This is kind of what it was like for me after our blizzard this past Saturday.

FINALLY! New Camera!

So there may be a blizzard out there but I sent my humans out to get a new camera anyway! BOL! They came back with a Panasonic Lumix. It works great, as HM decided while I was napping to start snapping away! Guess I asked for it. :o/

here I am sleeping away...

I feel the flash...so not ready for this close-up!

Sheesh! Can't I get a bit of sleep around here??

Manchester Moment: Fun with Photoshop!

So HM had me out in the back field on the weekend with a disposable camera (good news...they are shopping for a new one this weekend!!), and took some shots of me in the snow.

She then got them developed, put on CD and decided to have some fun with them! Since the shots were all on snow the backgrounds looked totally white. So HM created some composites of my photos to make it look like there were clones of me!! BOL!

I'm sending HM out to get one today! She LOVES Disney movies, and this is among her top 5!

Buckle Up for Safety!!

A new campaign is hitting the streets, and has car companies like Volvo going to the dogs!

BarkBuckleUP campaign educates pet parents on how to put on and take off safety pet belts and the importance of securing their pet safely for travel.

BarkBuckleUP will educate nationally (in the US), for people to USE a pet safety belt every time, day & night, 24/7, coast to coast, Safety Belts Save Lives and Money.

Volvo, the car brand best known for safety has teamed up with BarkBuckleUp to promote the safe transportation of pets in vehicles. At the Chicago Auto Show, the partnership was promoted with, of course, canine companions.

There are a number of ways to secure your pet in the car, including harnesses that can attach to the seatbelt or integrated cages available on some vehicles.

So buckle up pups!!

The Daily Simba

It's been awhile since I posted some random photos of myself. Since HM STILL hasn't gotten a new camera, I'm dipping into the archives..cause just like you a blog with photos is just more fun! Enjoy!

Me and some of my favourite toys (some of which are no longer with us...)

A shot from last summer at Greenwood
