Happy Holidays!

disclaimer: I know that last post appears twice but if I try to delete one or the other they both disappear- now the one I posted tonight is gone, too. *sigh*

Tug's long awaited 'first vacation' begins tomorrow. Mama was packing his things tonight and my sister likens it to a baby's diaper bag: puppy pads to pee on, food, treats, water for car trip, water bowl, food bowl, 3 toys (cuz, ball & rope- aka booda bone), coat, and towels for any clean up needed. We'll buy newspaper when we get there since he hates the feel of the puppy pads. His bedding was freshly cleaned and he's sleeping on it tonight- tomorrow the whole crate (bedding and all) gets tossed in the car. My sister is bringing towels and her cameras (still & video) as we hope to give him his first sight of the ocean tomorrow. He's also going to his first restaurant as a British pub allows dogs in the outdoor seating area- cross your fingers for us!!!
