Catch the ball!

Dear world,
Tomorrow night is New Year's Eve. It got me to thinking. Wouldn't it be the coolest thing to celebrate with Dick Clark and Ryan Seacrest in Time's Square in New York City? Then I would be right there when the ball drops. I think that is very appropriate for me. It could be my job to catch it!
Love always,
Bear

Has Mom gone too far?


Dear world,
I think Mom may have gone too far this time. She got Rosy a coat for when its cold. That I understand. But then Mom came home with hats for Fuzz and I that coordinated with Rosy's coat. Does she really expect Fuzz and I to wear these hats when we take our walks in the cold? Well, I know she wouldn't expect Fuzz to, but I really hope this is just for the photo opportunity today. Please cross your paws for me.
Love always,
Bear

A Carrying Case

.
Dear world,
Mom came home with a bag the other day. I told her it didn't look very fashionable. She explained it was a carrier for Rosy. So Rosy got in and Mom carried her upstairs. Then Rosy stayed in it even after Mom opened it. In fact she stayed in it all morning. Why? Rosy said she is practicing just in case Mom wants to take her on a trip. Would Mom would take Rosy on a trip without me? No way. I wonder when Mom will be bringing home a carrying case for me.
Love always,
Bear

Newly Acquired Wings



Dear world,
I tried to warn Rosy that when she became a member of the family, she would be subjected to dress up. She said, she is a girl and is happy to dress up. I said OK, but don't say I didn't warn you. So yesterday, Mom decided Rosy should be a pink butterfly. I tried real hard not to laugh. She looked at me for help, and I told her I warned her. Good thing that Mom took the pics quick because Rosy was ready to fly away with her newly acquired wings.
Love always,
Bear

Proud Sponsor


Dear world,
For Christmas, we did get some toys and treats. But our favorite presents were sponsorships of dogs at Best Friends Animal Society. Rosy got a dog named Poodle Pop and Fuzz got a dog named Lassy. I am the proud sponsor of three Bears: Cinnamon Bear, Wooley Bear and Pinky Bear. We are taking our sponsor roles very seriously and will follow their progress. Lassy and PinkyBear are ready for adoption.... will you please adopt our dogs?



Love always,
Bear

A Christmas Wish

Dear world,
I told Santa that I really did not need any toys because I have so much already. My wish instead is for is for him to bring warm loving forever homes to all the cats and dogs that need one. And while they are waiting, to make sure the animals are safe and will not come to any harm. I really hope Santa can do that for me, I have been a very good boy.
Merry Christmas. Hope all good wishes come true.
Love always,
Bear

FuzzBuzz: Twuzz the Nite Before Christmas

Dear world,
I was really good for the Santa photo shoot. I figured, that is one guy you don't want to piss off. So I hope Santa remembers that I did not give anyone any aggravation and I looked at the camera man when I was supposed to. And since I took such a good picture, I really hope Santa brings me the curly treats that are my favorite. Well, I will leave this picture on the mantle over the fireplace as a reminder to Santa.
Forever,
Fuzzy

Bunny Mouse


Dear world,
Mom did not want her granddog Bunny to be left out of the dress up festivities just because she lives in California. So Mom got her holiday mouse ears. Bunny sent me the picture. I thought she looked very cute. I suggested that she tell her Mom to take her to Disneyland. She could be a new character. BunnyMouse.

A stray horse?

Dear world,
I was reading my friend Thunder's blog the other day. He posted a beautiful picture of his brother Chase, who is a horse. It got me to thinking. Wouldn't it be so cool to have a horse sibling? Fuzz is the size of a small horse, but that doesn't count. And anyway, Fuzz wants a horse too. Mom said, no, we can't have a horse. But that is what she said about a third dog, and we found Rosy. So maybe we will find a stray horse on our walk one day in the neighborhood. Then she couldn't say no. Right?
Love always,
Bear

P.S. Here is Thunder's blog link. Isn't Chase handsome? http://dogthundersblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/long-time-no-write.html

Weather Forecast

Dear world,
Rosy has quite the wardrobe. Besides her pretty collars and leashes, she has three coats. These are quite functional obviously for her. But these coats are also very functional for me. You see, depending on which coat Mom puts on Rosy, I know what the weather is like outside. No need to listen to the weatherman on TV when I have Rosy.
Love always,
Bear

Can Santa Fit?


Dear world,
I saw Santa the other day and it got me to thinking. Santa is pretty fat, so how does he get down chimneys? I looked up my chimney and I don't think he will fit in mine. Fuzz says he can fit down any chimney around the world. Maybe he has some magic power that makes him skinny when he needs to be. I could use that power when I go to the vet and get weighed.
Love always,
Bear

Let it Snow!

Dear world,
Until recently, I lived in Southern California so I never saw it snow. And I keep hearing about snow from my friends. And then I hear songs about snow. So last night I went to sleep thinking that I really hope it will snow in Memphis. And then I dreamed that I was a snowflake! And so was Fuzz, Rosy and Bunnybell ! Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!
Love always,
Bear

Princess Claus


Dear world,
Rosy has this new habit of stealing my ball. Usually when she does, Mom takes it away from her and gives it back to me. But this time Mom didnt. Now just because she looks totally adorable as Princess Claus, doesnt mean she should be allowed to have my ball. Mommmm!

Yogi BearBear

Dear world,
Today the new Yogi Bear movie comes out. Yogi was one of my Mom's favorite characters as a child. She even called her sister Boo Boo. When it came to naming me, Mom & Dad wanted to keep my rescue name Bear. But Mom wanted to add to it like...TeddyBear, or Yogi Bear. Dad did not agree, so hence I am BearBear. But imagine if I was named Yogi Bear. Then maybe I could have gone to see JellyStone Park. But I guess I will just have to wait till it comes out on DVD. Unless... Mom, will you take me to a drive in?
Love always,
Bear

Where Are My Pajamas?



Dear world,
I just remembered what I bought myself for Christmas last year... Pajamas! At that time, we lived in San Diego, so everyone thought it was just a photo op and I would never wear my pajamas. But it has been quite cold here in Memphis, so I think I will go look for them in the closet with all the boxes. And I hope I can find my eye mask as well. I don't want my eyeballs to get cold.
Love always,
Bear

A Talk with Rosy


Dear world,
I had to have a talk with Rosy the other day. She was starting to whine a bit about all the dress up photo shoots. She said she doesn't mind dressing up, but the photo shoots take so long. I explained that when Mom is trying to get the three of us it takes longer mostly cause of Fuzz. Rosy asked why Mom doesn't just do Fuzz separately and photoshop him in. Hmmm. Rosy is pretty smart. Why didn't Mom think of that?
Love always,
Bear

Ski Trip


Dear world,
I found out that my neighbors are going on a ski trip soon. It sounds like so much fun. I asked Mom why we don't go on a ski trip. She said maybe someday. OK, so that means never. So it got me to thinking. If Fuzz and I put on ski caps and waited outside, maybe our neighbors would get the hint and ask us to join them. We're still waiting.
Love always,
Bear

Another Retriever!


Dear world,
The first month Rosy was here, I thought she was very sweet and very much a lap dog princess. However, last week I found out that somewhere in that little body, she is also a retriever! And she is real quick I hate to admit that she is hard to keep up with! I always thought Fuzz was going to be my fetch pal, but it looks like Rosy wants that role. Ok. So we have a Toy Poodle Retriever. Nice mix.
Love always,
Bear

Candy Cane Guild


Dear world,
We watched the Wizard of Oz the other day and were inspired by the Munchkins and their lollipop guild song. So Fuzz, Rosy and I decided to sing the tune but adapt our own lyrics...

We represent the Candy Cane Guild, the Candy Cane Guild, the Candy Cane Guild.

And in the name of the Candy Cane Guild...

We welcome you to Memphis Land.

Love always,
Bear

Santa's workshop

Dear world,
When Bunnybell was visiting, I promised her and Rosy that I would go with them to see Santa's workshop. Mom said she would take us there as long as we wore our elf outfits. Rosy and Bunnybell look adorable and they are the right size. And then there is me. A big Elf Bear. And I didn't even get any toys out of it. Santa said they weren't ready yet.
Love always,
Bear

FuzzBuzz: Modeling Compensation


Dear world,
Yesterday, was yet another one of Mom's holiday photo shoots. We actually had to do four straight! And there were not even cookies involved. I asked Bear why we aren't getting paid somehow. Bear said to remember that we are on weight watchers so we cant have extra cookies. And we do these shoots for two reasons. The first is to make Mom happy because she makes us happy. The second is for my blog posts. And part of my job as his employee, I am required to participate. Oh.
Forever,
Fuzzy

Welcome Bear


Dear world,
There is a new bear at my house. He is holding a welcome sign. Why is he the family greeter? He is so stiff. He doesn't talk, no less bark. I think that Fuzz, Rosy and I should be the welcoming committee instead. We could even have shifts for being outside and holding up the sign. Wait, that would mean at least 4 hours for each of us to stand alone outside. That is not appealing. Never mind. Now I understand why this welcome bear was hired.
Love always,
Bear

Holiday Slippers


Dear world,
Mom got Dad a nice pair of slippers last week and he loves them. So I guess that is what gave her the idea to get me and Fuzz slippers. I told her we can't wear slippers. She said we can if we are laying down. So that's what we did. We laid down and put on our holiday slippers. And for some more holiday spirit, she had us put our antlers on. And as she was taking the pictures, Fuzz and I said, Mom, this is really dumb. She told us we were lucky we didn't have to wear the matching robes.
Love always,
Bear

A New Band




Dear world,
Since I live in Memphis now, I was thinking I should start a band. None of us play the piano, so Mom got me some instruments. I chose the xylophone and gave Fuzz the Maracas. We started practicing and then Rosy wanted to join as the lead singer. Fuzz figured while Rosy practiced, he could take a nap. We are still deciding on a name for our band. We would welcome any ideas.
Love always,
Bear

A Christmas Tree

Dear world,
Its that time of year for families to go and get a Christmas tree. But what does my Mom do? She decides that I should be a tree! So there I am in the spot where the tree is supposed to be. She even put red and green beads on me which I guess were supposed to be garlands. I really hope she doesn't decide to put lights on me.
Love always,
Bear

Princess in training

Dear world,
It has only been a month since we have had Rosy and I think she already needs her own closet. She has 5 new collars, 3 leashes, 5 name tags, 1 scarf, 2 coats and a sweater on order. And that doesn't include the holiday stuff. Oh yah, and of course, Mom just found her the the tiara, which is perfectly fitting. After all she is in training to be a princess...Princess Rosy. Does that mean I am already a prince?
Love always,
Bear

Blog Material


Dear world,
Yesterday I saw my mom rummaging through these bags of stuff. I thought it was Christmas presents. And then I went over and looked closer. Uh Oh. Looks like clothes and props for holiday photo shoots for me, Fuzz and Rosy. Fuzz is not going to be too happy about this. Not sure what Rosy is going to think. Which got me to thinking. How do I feel about it? Well, I guess I really should not mind because it gives me lots of material for my blog posts. So it is just something I need to do for my career as a blogger.
Love always,
Bear

FuzzBuzz: Matching hats

Dear world,
I saw this hat for sale on line that I thought would make such a great present for my Mom. Wouldn't it be so cool for Mom and I to have matching hats for when the weather gets real cold? But I haven't earned enough money this year to buy it for my Mom. I asked Dad and he wouldn't give me the money for it cause he thought it was silly. Bear wouldn't lend me the money because he said I should be investing it. Oh well. I guess it will be a missed photo opportunity.
Forever,
Fuzzy

Magic table

Dear world,
When I go to the vet, I get to go up on this magic table. It is low to the floor and then I jump on it and it rises up. It is so cool because I get to see the world from a human's perspective, at least one the height of Mom. It is very odd because I don't really see feet, that is unless I look down. And I don't need to look up to look at people's faces because there they are right in front of me. I wish this table was like a magic carpet that could move me about so I could expand this perspective.
Love always,
Bear

Happy Chanukah!

Dear world,
Today is the first day of Chanukah. So I asked Mom to tell us the story. Well, there was this real cool guy Judah the Maccabee. He and his buds bravely reclaimed a temple from the Syrian King (who was a bad guy). When they wanted to relight the eternal flame in the temple, they only had enough oil for one day. Bummer! But miraculously it lasted for eight days! Yeay! So that's why we light a candle for eight days! (I knew there had to be some reason other than eight gifts). Actually, I am hoping for lots of Hanukkah gelt (money) for my piggy bank. Well, Happy Chanukah everyone... bring on the Potato Latkes!
Love always,
Bear
