Quarantine

Daddy and Mommy had to break the sad news to Preston this weekend. The white bump on his tongue turns out to be a “puppy wart” (Canine Oral Papillomavirus). He must have gotten it when visiting the dog park. It is highly contagious so he has to be on quarantine until the wart goes away. This means no dog park and no playing with neighbors for few weeks, or possibly months!!! Poor thing…

Homemade Chicken Treats

When Presotn goes into his crate on command, he always “insists” on being rewarded with one of his favorites treats, dehydrated chicken strips. The warning on the package says “not for human consumption” got Mommy worried so Mommy made her own chicken treats that were good for both humans and Preston.

Sunny Morning Walk

Preston went for a morning walk with mommy in Bayfront Park, Menlo Park. There were so many ground squirrels that Preston didn’t know which one to chase after first.

Swimming Puggle

Preston is getting ready for the warm weather by practicing how to swim. He made a lot of splashes at first but with the help of a life jacket (he looked SO cute in it!), he got more comfortable with being in the water.
