DESERT MUSEUM

Holy Puppy Poop!!! Look at the size of those kitty cats. This is a photo that Mom took when she was visiting the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. These are Mountain Lions and are one of the most popular exhibits at the museum. The really great thing about the Desert Museum is that they rehabilitate wild animals or they rescue injured animals or animals that wander into populated areas that would otherwise have to be killed. The Desert Museum is a pawsome place to learn about all of the animals that share the Sonoran Desert with us. The only bad thing is that Mom never lets us go. She says dogs and Mountain Lions don't mix. But what does she know, we ain't afraid of no stinkin Mountain Lions. They're just big cats, with big claws and big teeth and......hey, Keiko, why are you hiding under the bed?

THE ONLY WAY TO VOTE

Being fun-loving creatures of the canine variety, we don't understand why some people get all stressed out over voting. Why don't they just vote the way Mom votes? She always gets an early, mail-in ballot and a bottle of wine and she's happier than a pig in...., well, you know what we mean. Of course after drinking half the bottle or so, one of us pups has to help her out because she's trying to draw tiny little ovals all over the page.

SONORAN DESERT BONFIRE

Woo-woo!!! We had a pawsome time last night. Mom decided that we needed to have a bonfire and it was a lot of fun.

Keiko helps with the fire pit.


Scuba adds some mesquite firewood.

BLADDER INFECTIONS IN OLDER DOGS

Woof everypups, cats and hamsters, Desert Pup's Mom here. I know this is probably going to embarrass Scuba a bit, discussing this during her birthday party, but I was wondering if anyone has a dog that gets frequent bladder infections? The older Scuba gets the more bladder infections she gets. The Doggie Doctor prescribes Clavomox and that usually takes care of it for awhile but then the infection seems to always come back. I've tried different diets but Scuba is turning out to be quite the finicky eater in her golden years. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

pee-ess: we're still working on the party photos and will post them as soon as possible.
