The happiest dog in the snow!

Playdate with Freddy and Rocket

by admin

Remember Rocket, the tri-color puggle Preston met at Bark in the Park last week? It turned out Rocket is Preston’s cyber friend, Freddy’s brother from the same litter! Freddy, Rocket and Preston went on a playdate at Fort Funston this weekend.
Freddy and Rocket are like mirror images of each other.

Preston and Rocket were playing tug of war. Freddy was the referee.

It was an awesome playdate!

”
After saying good-bye to Freddy, Rocket and their families, Preston headed to Napa Valley with Mommy and Daddy (Yes! Daddy was back from Boston this weekend!). Auntie Karin and Uncle John were celebrating their first wedding anniversary and Saturday was also Mommy and Daddy’s 12th anniversary of their first date! Four of them celebrated their special day at the French Laundry.

Preston didn’t get to go into the restaurant but no worries, Mommy prepared a gourmet dinner for him so that he wouldn’t feel being left out.

Bark in the Park 2008

by admin

Bark in the Park 2008 is taking place this Saturday.
Preston got to the event late and missed the “Silly Trick Contest” but after the embarrasment last year, Mommy wasn’t so sure about being on the stage with Preston again.

Preston met Rocket, a tri-colored puggle. Preston got to share some of Rocket’s treats. The poor Bulldog looked very jealous.

Pfeiffer Beach, Big Sur

by admin

Daddy was back from Boston for the long weekend. Preston and Mommy couldn’t be happier!
The whole family drove down to Big Sur, CA, about 3 hours south of San Francisco.
Beautiful coastal scenery on Highway 1.

Arriving at dog friendly Pfeiffer Beach. Doggies were supposed to be on-leash…uhh…not sure who got the party started first.

Monterey

Preston visited Monterey and Carmel today.

He was checking out the sea lions. Can you see three sea lions chilling out on the rocks?

He stopped by Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. and found the box of chocolate that Forrest Gump left behind. Oh…Forrest left his shoes too…

Cherry Picking

by admin

Preston went cherry picking with Mommy, Daddy and Uncle Allen in Brentwood, CA. There are lots of orchards in Brentwood but most of them do not allow pets. After promising to behave well, Preston was permitted in one of the cherry orchards.

Preston wasn’t allowed in the peach orchards but he is looking forward to enjoying the fresh peaches daddy picked.

A failed attempt

by admin

Great auntie Amy were planning on hiking Mission Peak this weekend. Mommy and Preston thought they would come along since they had such a great time hiking up to the summit last time.
The hike started at 7:30am this time!

However, after this…

Then this…

And finally this…

Mommy decided to take Preston home. Preston did not make it to the summit like he did last time. Why? Because he got too excited and used his energy up at the trail head. Plus the 2.4 lb he put on when mommy and daddy were on vacation did not help either!

An Outdoor Weekend

by admin

The weather is warming up. Preston hit the beach early this year!
Preston does not care for swimming but loves running on the sandy beach.

Beautiful California coast.

On Sunday, Preston went hiking at Windy Hill Open Space Preserve.
“Hey! I can see the summit!”

Racing to the top with Uncle Allen and Daddy

“uhh…Preston? We are not even half-way there.”

Preston made it to the summit! Good job! It was beautiful up there.

Hello from Seattle

by admin

Preston is spending Christmas holidays at Grandma and Grandpa’s house in Seattle!
He made it to Seattle safely, whew! Judging from his expression, it didn’t seem like he had an enjoyable flight. (FYI: Preparing to fly with a puggle)
