Gave Vinnie a bath today. He's so great. He didn't move the whole time, but as soon as it was done he jumped around, smiling and relieved.

If I had $1 for every time I said, "Vinnie, that's disgusting!"... this kid could start supporting himself a bit.

I think for Halloween I'm gonna dress up as the 1%, and have Vinnie dress up as the 99%. I need ideas along these lines, STAT!

Vinnie is ignoring me in favor of his new bone. Nice! It's like a really cheap babysitter.

One of V's favorite "aunts" just gave him a bone, & he's running around with it hanging out of his mouth like a cigar, looking sneaky like he's robbed a bank.

Hmmm. It always makes me a little nervous when Vinnie starts scratching his eyebrows with his back legs. He seems to know what he's doing, but...

Ha! Vinnie just stopped and looked at a plane that was flying near the ground. He seemed pretty impressed. So cute.

Greeeaaat... Vinnie has now gone for Big Bear's eye. Crunch, crunch.

One benefit of taking Vinnie to the dog park is that he spends the rest of the day snoozing, & usually not protesting too much when I cuddle up next to him.

I need Halloween costume ideas for Vinnie. How can I capitalize on his "Mafia Vinnie" look? Or should we do something totally different?

Topic: Most pointless questions ever. "Vinnie, do you want a treat?" Ok, now your turn.

I love puppies. One just tried to face down my moving car as I was cruising through my parking lot. Such a sense of confidence.

Mr. Vincent Cheng

I keep getting spam from "Mr. Vincent Cheng." I wonder if Vincent Brotten is trying to contact me while I'm at work, but just messed up on his last name...

Vinnie focuses on treats. I call him frantically to tease him, & finally he'll rush over & kiss me, either to reassure me or to suggest I calm the hell down.

I just asked Vinnie if he had fun swimming. He burped. Yep, that sums it up. He always drinks gallons of water while swimming.

Woke up this morning to Vinnie sleeping next to me in bed, his head right next to mine on the pillow, all snuggled up. So cute. E;cP

Vinnie is about to have his 1st experience at 1 of my favorite places, Whatcom Falls. I haven't been here for 6 years. E;cP

Vinnie is such a weirdo. He's chewing on a bone, but before that he placed it in a tupperware container he found. Strange kid. E;cP

Oh, Vinnie! Stop looking at me with such disgust. It was just a kiss.

I love how I can scratch a certain place on Vinnie's shoulder & he instantly turns into "Mafia Vinnie", scowl & all. E;cP

How is it that Vinnie's ears are always super hot while his nose is always cold and wet? E;cP #DogsAreWeird #random #Vinnie

BUSY day! Salmon Days parade with Vinnie, coffee date, birthday party, Lily live, then drove to Canada. Tomorrow: blessed nothing.

Taking Vinnie to a puppy parade. This has gotta be a good idea, right? E;cP
