When Alan and Kathy returned from their 5 weeks in the southern hemisphere, they discovered first that I had grown, and second that Miss Kitty and I had developed a relationship. I could bite that head off if I wanted, but really I rather like the little pussy.

Later in August, after the summer of growth when I had crossed 85 lbs on the way up, I was asked to pose with Alan for his Southeast Faculty Spotlight article. Being the cute and cuddly rascal that I am, of course I agreed. You can see the full story at http://www.semo.edu/spotlights/faculty_3941.htm but I have to warn you that there is not enough there about me.

 

Can you really have too much of a good thing?
Luckily, while they were gone, Alan didn't forget how to play ball. That bandana, incidentally, is what they brought back for me from Australia; it's "The Southern Cross".
These are the images from which the mastheads were taken - just to show there is an entire dog back there.

It looks as though Mom has a plan!

There is nothing about this that I don't like.
It really cleans out the pores
and lets a guy's skin breathe -
and I can really relaaax!
Every now and again Dad gets way out of line - and I have to give him a serious talking to. When he doesn't pay attention, more extreme measures are needed.

I'm one year old and have just crossed 90lbs -
on the way up!
They forgot to take photos of my birthday party.
Sometimes, all you can do with a good toy is sleep on it. By December I was well over a year - and beyond these childish toys - sort of.
There are many ways to relax - this is mine!  Unless someone wants to try Yoga exercises - then I relax with / on them.
Sometimes, the best overview of what's happening is from upstairs.
My First Christmas!

They think I'm cute with my Christmas Bells - but if anyone thinks the nickname Chaco Bell is cute, I still have teeth.
