Cherry Picking

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.

Poolside Party

Preston went swimming at Great Auntie Amy’s house this morning. Mommy didn’t bring his life jacket so he was a little nervous about getting into the water at first.

But he quickly got comfortable in the water and had a lot of fun playing fetch with mommy in the pool. He is a great swimmer.

The poolside party continued after Preston got home. Auntie Karin and Uncle John came over for the poolside barbeque.
Preston was drooling over his dinner: Grilled Salmon and Doggie beer!

Cleaning up the toys

Fetching toys by name is Preston’s specialty. He can fetch all of his toys from the toy box continuously, all 45 of them! Although Mommy is very proud of him, cleaning up the toys could be a big headache sometimes.

It is Mother’s day. Preston decided to give Mommy the best Mother’s day gift ever – cleaning up his own toys!

Vestharness®

Puggles are not known for being the best walkers. A good harness can make Preston’s on-leash walk more enjoyable. Mommy got a lot of inquries from other puggle parents about Preston’s harness. It is called Vestharness®, made by CanineFriendly.

Best Friends

It’s been awhile since Preston visited Mina and Milo the Westies. Milo is Preston’s best poochie friend on the planet!
“Preston, do you wanna go to Milo’s house?”

Best friends forever.

One Hot Day

Preston is always in front leading the way when walking with Mommy and Daddy at Bayfront Park.
He would wait and make sure Mommy and Daddy are keeping up.

It was a very hot day today. Towards the end of the walk, this was how Preston waited for mommy and daddy.

The best way to cool off on a hot day? Jamba Juice!
Ready to dig in! Preston was having Mango-A-Go-Go.
