I know, you don't have to tell me...


Well I suppose I'm in trouble again....I was just leisurely strolling through mom and dads room while mom was cleaning up and doing some laundry and I smelled it again and that was it....Over...Done....I had to do it.....
I tried so hard to just walk past it but I just couldn't resist myself....I swear I don't even know why I torture myself and go in mom and dads room.......I'm sure you already know what I'm talking about but Ill just go ahead and rub it in for myself.........Yes...I peed on the corner of mom and dads blanket and some clothes......
Well..... What do you expect? I smelled my dad on some of my moms stuff... The stuff that I'm not allowed to be on or around so I did it again.. I marked it... (but come to find out it really was my error because it was only a sock of moms on a pair of dads pants laying next to the bed where the blanket was hanging over....So it really was my fault) And here comes the really bad part....I peed on a heated blanket controller and ruined it..... So now mom and dad have to get a new one... And dad is mad I mean real mad because the blanket was like 50 bucks and did all kinds of neat stuff - not that I got to enjoy it cause mom wont let me on the bed (I know I know its my fault because I pee on mom's special blanket to claim her and it as mine from dad)
So yes I already know ...No one has to say I told ya so.. I already feel bad enough....Thank god Dad didn't pee on my blankets cause' I heard him say.... "Miranda I oughta go pee on his blankets to see how he feels" mom just laughed but I hope he wasn't serious.........
P.S. (this is Miranda - 'mom') IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO BUY AN ENGLISH BULLDOG AND YOU HAPPEN TO SEE AN ADD IN ONE OF THE GOOGLE ADDS AT THE TOP OF THIS PAGE ....IF YOU WANT MY OPINION, I WOULD NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT GETTING A PUP FROM ONE OF THE ADDS THAT WERE LISTED ....IT WAS (not sure if it is still on there or not ) www.englishbulldogqualitypuppies.com/ AND I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THEY ARE NOT A DIRECT REFLECTION OF OUR BULLDOG NOR HOW WE , AS BULLDOG PARENTS, WOULD EVER HANDLE OUR BULLDOGS.....unfortunately we do not choose the adds that go on this site.....If you are looking to buy a healthy bully from loving caring breeders please look into the link "A Breeder" or "My Realatives*" or contact us and I will gladly give you a few references!!!

My Christmas


Well I had a great christmas!! I got to see my lovey on christmas eve and she got me greenies and I got her a stocking full of pink toys.. since thats her favorite color....I was so upset cause' her foot was bleeding real bad.... I think she stepped on a sharp stick .....So mom and dad fixed her all up and gave her a foor soak and a peticure.......we played after she was all fixed up and I showed her my secret cave where I store all my toys.... shhhh dont tell mom but its behind the papasan chair hehehe!!!
On christmas mom and dad went to grammie #1 and 2's house and Paw Paw Dan's house...Mommies favorite cousin Jessi and dad have a tradition that every year they wrap each others presents up so tight that they have to work to get into them.. well this year Jessi topped it all!! She put dads present in a wooden box and NAILED AND SCREWED IT TOGETHER!!!!
it took him a good half hour to get it open!!! Mom said it was soo funny!!!
I ended up getting a new sweater (cause I hate going outside when its cold to do #2 hehe) 4 chew toys and a pull rope....oh yeah and a christmas ornament with a bulldog, my name and the year on it... mom put it on our money tree cause we didnt put up a tree this year...
but I got to open up each present.. it was fun!!! Pretty much the only time Im allowed to run around with paper in my mouth.... So much fun...I wish it was christmas every day!!!
I hope you all had a good christmas too!!!

Good news and Bad news


Well, I guess there is some good news and some bad news....... Mom and dad ended up not getting seriously hurt snowboarding, and they had a blast but came home with a huge bump/ concussion on dads head and bruises in places he never thought of having... And mom came home with a bruised tail bone/ pinched nerve in her back and huge black bruise from I guess over extension or some weird thing she said behind the knee...... Needless to say they are sore, in pain and GRUMPY!!! But I guess they did a pretty good job though!! I thought that mom would have sucked and so did she but she did pretty good, so dad said... And after all the darn whining and yiping their doing, they tell me that they "definitely want to do it again" ? What in the world are they thinking....God....I'll remember this when they tell me "no its too cold outside to play in it for long" and "Cyrus you'll catch pneumonia out there in the snow" and "Time to go in the house Cyrus. Bulldogs cant take extreme cold or heat remember buddy?"
Yeah, I'll remember that and then Ill have a reason to be grumpy! And they better not forget to treat me when I come in from it either!.......

I love new people!!!


YEEE HAAAWW!!! I just got back from the nice new peoples house... We played and I got to lick every single one of them (and there was like 8 of them!!!)... Oh I had so much fun!!! They were so nice... I hope I get to go and see them again!!! I was so excited and I kept hearing and smelling other dogs that I couldn't see ... Unfortunately I had a little accident on their couch ....I didn't mean to I swear....Mom says I need to watch myself and try harder to hold back from marking my territory.... But I didn't really mean it and I didn't really get into trouble so I think they knew I didn't mean to do it...... Oh, man I did really have fun though.... And I am absolutely pooped!!! As soon as I got home I laid down and fell asleep and snored.. Mom and dad laughed at me and took pictures of me....
I also want to say a big thank you to: The Tigner Family for letting me run around a wiggle my butt. I had soooo much fun!!!!!

All festive and stuff


well I hear its almost Christmas and mom and dad refused to put up a tree this year I guess I'm the only thing that gets to be decorated this year....Great......You can see how excited I am about this by my lovely expression .... I guess I cant judge my attitude about this situation from the picture though because I guess that is what I always look like so....
tomorrow I get to go see some people that love bulldogs...Dad says that they want to get to know me because they someday want to have one of my puppies...I guess that one will have to be explained to me......Good for me though because I love to meet new people and play....
Then (here comes the bad news) MOM AND DAD ARE GOING SNOWBOARDING...... WITHOUT ME.... I'm P.O.ed!!!
dear god, Please don't let the rents' break a leg or neck or arm...Or worse a finger, toe or foot...
I hear it would be pretty hard to drive a stick shift with a broken foot and right arm.....Or left as far as that goes... So if you are reading this... Please, please, Please pray for my parents to not break themselves snowboarding.......

Bad mood

I am so mad at mom and dad I would spit..(If I could I mean).....Mom tried everything to tell me that she's sorry and dad was giving me lots of lovins' last night but I am so mad...... I just found out that aunt Kelly and uncle Justin are taking mom and dad skiing on Sunday....I am so pissed I want to go but NOOO I am "not allowed" they are going to mad river mountain....Mom and dad have never went skiing before and I bet they come back with a few broken bones...Then Ill have to take care of them and that will cut into my sleeping and farting time....See this is no good for anyone so they should just stay home....So mom if you are reading this....I am really mad at you and don't talk to me....And stay home or let me go with you.....
she even tried taking pictures of me today and I would not even look at her... When I did, I gave her a mean look and I hope she read my expression right....It was DON'T TALK TO ME and that's what I meant darn it.....

On a lighter note on my birthday the rents' did deliver ...Zoey Poey did come over to play...Man she's getting so big! She's even a little velumptuious with a little fat on that back!!! She definitely puts the bootie in Bootieful!!

"So its my birthday, So its my birthday....
Ima gonna do the jig...
So its my birthday, So its my birthday...
Happy Birthday to the Pig" hehehe Yay!!!
I am now officially 1 year old today!!! I have been dancing around the house all day... mom told me all night last night that today was going to be my birthday...mom said that I was probably a fat little bully pig even when I came out of my real mommy's belly!! I cant wait until dad gets home to see what kinds of gifts I get!! Mom already let me get up on the bed and lay there for a few seconds and I heard talk of making some doggie treats especially for me and if i heard them correctly, I think that my gal Zoey Poey is going to come and visit me!!! Ill share some treats with her for sure!!!

Let It Snow.....

oh my I love the snow....Love, Love, Love, Love it!!!
Last night Mom and Dad took me outside to play in it and our next door neighbor even joined in on the fun!!! We had snowball fights where I got to chase every ball that was thrown!!!
Oh I had so my fun!!! Mom and dad were laughing at me for like an hour!!!
this morning I was sooo tired from playing that I didn't even give mom or dad a wake up call to go out!! Mom had to wake me up from my snuggly blankets to take me outside!!And to my surprise....The SNOW was STILL there on the ground and even thicker!!!
I was pretty tired this morning too and mom snapped a few more photos of me licking the snow flakes off my face...
I keep hearing about how slick it is outside and how mad everyone is about all the snow on the ground and al I have to say is: LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW!!!!
makes me want to strike up a bull song!!
" Oh the ice outside is frightful,
But the Fun and snows Delightful..
And as long as outside I go....
LET IT SNOW..LET IT SNOW .. LET IT SNOW!!! "

Sooo Much Fun!!!!


Well I had a fun evening!! Dad had the day off and then Grammie came over and we made pizza and cookies and grammie and dad danced around the kitchen(while drinking thier funny smelling "grown up drinks") while mommy laughed and shot video footage of them and I of course watched and danced around with them!! Oh man we had a good time!!! I was the center of attention the whole time and I loved it!! I told dad that we need to do this everynight!!
After all the celebrating, I am soo pooped so I am going to take another nap! (oh yeah by the way, I havent "went" on mom's blanket for a long long time and so mom and dad rewarded me with big fluffy blankets to sleep on in my room..I love them now and mom took some pictures of me snoozing away on the new fluffies!!!)

Big news

Well Some big news.... Mom and Dad's friend and Rollies Mom, is having a baby!!!
And, Emmi is allowed to have a puppy of her own like Rollie... I am actually a little peeved cause' I never heard any mention of me being able or allowed to have a baby to look after or a puppy of my own... I am going to have a serious talk with the rents' about this.....Something just doesnt seem fair to me!!
On a lighter note, dad came home yesterday and took me to see grammie and to my surprise, Mom was there... which that kinda peeved me too cause that means that she went to grammies without me... I always love going there cause I get to chase the 6 toed bandit ( toby the cat) around the house... its so much fun!! and when I got there mom and grammie were jammin music loud upstairs while they painted and sorted through pictures and old interesting stuff that I would love to go up there and chew on if I could stand the smell of paint and cleaner...
Mom always tells me that I am such a boy..now she has grammie saying it too and grammie tells me I am just like my dad cause I dont like the smell of anything that "smells clean" just cause I dont like any type of wipes or cleaner....I guess if that makes me a boy and more like my dad Im willing to take the title...
I mean so what I like to fart and snort and snore and fart some more whats wrong with that? Thats what bulldogs do right? Arent we supposed to be the clowns of the dog world?

Look at this!!



Wow will you look at my mom and dad!! I guess this pic was taken before my time...Mom has short hair there!! They look so serious!! ...Ms Marti Weis took it...they were her "models" ... after she got the pics back, she blew this one up and another one and used them as her display in her window...after she was done, she gave the pics to mom and dad....so now they keep those pics in thier room..they are huge!!
sometimes when I get to nap in thier room (not as often as Id like) I wake up and stare at them and mom and dad laugh at me....

cold old day


I went outside today and about froze my tush off... I think today is a great day to just lounge around all day...Kinda bummed though cause all the snow is gone...I swear when is it going to be time for me to go out and roll around in the snow and pull mom and dad on a sled and romp? I keep asking dad to take me out in it and play but he keeps telling me "no buddy the snows all gone for today" and Im getting a little pissed....ah bah humbug...im ging back to bed...but on a lighter note mom sent my pictures in to the dog horoscope website to represent all the Sagittarius' out there!!! dun da duh!! super bully Saggitaruis to the rescue!!! And you can see my mug on the Mystical Board under 'post a pic' on www.doghoroscopes.com or in my links!!! ( I think Im like the second one on the page of dogs!!- that is if they havent updated new doggies on there yet)

Cool Huh?!!


wow what a turkey day!! well kind of a sleepy day for mom and dad... they went to grammie#2's house and ate some turkey which mom says has tryptophan in it and it makes you sleepy...I could tell cause they were so lazy I was even making fun of them...
I have seen on Rollie and emmi's site the horoscopes for dogs and I went there and it was so cool that I decided to have mom put a link on my site for it!!!!
my horoscope thingy says thats I am a Sagittarius and ithis is what it says...
SAGITTARIUS
..(November 23 - December 21)
Sign of The Archer
Ruling Planet - Jupiter
Most Desirable Qualities - Nature Loving, active
Talent - Hunting
Physical Characteristics - Well-balanced body, ankles and feet will be fine and delicate haha thats really not me...Im a big footed clubber (at least thats what mom says)

Sagittarius is the Sign of the Archer and this signifies that you definitely have a purpose or aim in life. You are also a natural born hunter and will stalk anything that moves including ants, butterflies, and old newspapers. (well thats definetly true cause' if something is moved around in the house I will yell at it until it gets moved back!!!)

are sensitive and sympathetic to the moods of those around you. You adore good living, happy and congenial companions. With a huge sigh of contentment you will claim the most comfortable chair in the house and sink wearily into it.
Oh boy is this true... I hate to get into trouble and I hate it when mom or dad is upset.. and I LOVE THE COUCH!!!

Looking for love in all the wrong places? Well sometimes you are considered just too frank and candid. Wait till someone sniffs first next time, then you can be very responsive to love.
Well that would explain why Some dogs dont like me..I am always trying to say hi but I just thought its cause they had a complex with me sniffing thier butt!!

I thought this was prett cool too...My mom is an Aries and this iisat it says for our relationship

A good combination. These two are both mentally and emotionally compatible. Each will find the other an exciting and good-humored companion. Many years of affection will be enjoyed.

And Dad is a Scorpio and this is what it says:

An extremely active relationship. A little bit of Sagittarius is a welcome change, but not even Scorpio can keep up with the energy of a Sagittarius.

Cool huh?!!

Real Snow!


Wow real snow to play in...oh my goodness...There were kids out next door playing in the snow sledding down thier hill.. oh I wanted to go play with them so bad!!! mom made me go in too early ..she said that Bulldogs can't tolerate being too hot or too cold so she made me go in for a while but when dad came home, he saw me and we went outside...oh my Im going to have so much fun this winter...I think that I am going to rally my friends together and we'll have a play date..without our 'rents' ...so Rollie, Emmi, Cyrus Von Thunderstorm, Gracie Allen, and most of all my gal Zoey...when you read this...email me or post and we'll set it up....but keep it on the downlow...shhhh.......

More Pics


Its snowing outside again... But not the fun snow its the cold freeze your tail pocket off snow...Its not very fun playing in it cause it doesn't stick to the ground...Me and mom have been sittin in the house watching TV and Mom found some more pics of me and her and my dad... Marti Weis took the pictures of us when I was about 6 months old..Im a lot bigger now as you can tell in more recent pictures that I have of me on here...
You can also go to Marti Weis' website link on here and find me in the "Unique" section of the portfolio and mom and dad in the "Family" section too!! Shes a real good photographer and mom and dad are real close with her. I like her too she laughs at me and says Im silly...Imagine that!!!

Turkey Day is on its way!!!!

Turkey day is comming up!! Mom and dad already ate one turkey day celebration with aunt Kelly and uncle Justin at thier new house... Mom says that dogs are alergic to turkey skin...It gives us problems with our pancreas...I dont even know what a Pncreas is but it sounds painful!!!! Im not going to enjoy thanksgiving anyway cause I am not allowed to have any people food... But sometimes I cheat or one of the 'rents' do (thats my new saying...Im going to see how long mom can stand me saying that word..she was having a hard time with even the mom instead of mommy thing) Hey what can I say... Im like a teenager now... Well I think I am..Mom says that Bulldogs dont really become an "adult"until they are 2 years old..uggghh Im only 11 monmths, I guess I have a long way to go...I havent been doing much of anything here lately just laying around and playing and the occasional jumping on mom and giving her bruises...Dad thinks shes low on Iron but she just says Im a tubba... I weigh 72 pounds!! Im not fat or anything..Im just big boned!!! Actually, the vet says that Im doing great and he was surprised that I got so big!!! He says that I am just a big bulldog...He didnt have to tell me that!!( I guess that we bullys max weight is usually around 60 pounds- Well I have surpassed that.. thats for sure!!!) What can I say.. I like to eat!!

What a fun surprise!!!

Today is my birthday- well I'm 11 months old today!!! And.... Today I heard a knock at the door and to my surprise it was my PRINCESS ZOEY THE BEAUTIFUL!!!! Oh was I excited to see her!!! She has gotten real big and we played and romped and kissed and nuzzled and romped and we wrestled and played some more and we ran around and we jumped on each other and sniffed each other and we god slobber all over each other (I guess bulldogs are sloppy kissers hehe) and I showed her around to my newly arranged room and I gave her my toys to play with and we laid down together and we wrestled some more and she is getting pretty strong she even got me down for the 1.2.3. count!!! I was amazed!!! Ohhhh I was sooo excited!!! She's the best I missed her sooo much!!! Last time I saw her she was too little for me to play with but now she can even get me down!!!
oh we had a blast!!! Mom was trying to take pictures of us but we were romping and playing so fast that she could barely get a clear shot!!
Later that night I got to play with mom and dads friends doggies! Their names are freya and Roddick...They are Black Labs . I got a long real well with freya but roddick and I kinda got into a fight cause we were all eating our treats that their mommy gave us and roddick came over and took mine out of my mouth and tried to bite me...So we kinda got into it and he bit me in my face but I think I scared him cause I was growling real mean at him.... But we ended making up and playing later!! Their daddy says that Roddick has a bit of a jealousy streak in him when other dogs are around eating food......Freya just looked at me the whole time like oh don't worry about him cause he's just acting like a jerk again...It didn't bother me any cause after he was finished being mean and pouting a little after he got into trouble we were all playing like normal again!! It was fun!!! Oh man what a fun and exciting day!!! After all that playing I'm pretty tired and I also got a baffie and now I'm all squeaky clean and comfy enough to go off to dreamland...I bet Zoey will be there!!! So I'm off!!!

hmmmmm



We finally got cable and now mom and dad are glued to the tv watching everything in high definition!! Its either the computer or the internet! Always one or the other!!! We havent done much here lately cause mom has been sick with a cold and dad has been working late a lot...Mom watched a show last night when dad was in bed and she started crying!!! My mom never crys!! she must be sick!!!! It was some girly show that dad always makes fun of her for watching......She tells us "oh you two are such boys" and I can definetly agree with dad when he says "shes such a girl"!! I cant remeber the last time I cried!!
I got introuble for peeing to bed last night...I peed on my blankets in my room and mom found em and yelled at me....and threw them in the washer and now I dont have anything to lay on but the floor...man does that suck!!!
Mom says she starts her new job next week...shes excited cause her last boss was crazy!!! She feels sorry for Emmilou's mom because she still has to work for her.....I feel sorry for her too!! I guess Emmi got into a fight with her uncle baxter and they got into trouble....I wonder if Baxter said he was sorry......I know that my chi-wa-wa neighbor never said he was sorry for biting me in the face.... He ran at my mom and dad the other day.... I dont understand why he is so grumpy all the time!!! Maybe he is related to mom's old boss!! hehehehe!!!

website almost up!!!


my very own personal website is almost up now!! it will be on one of my links but it is www.bullcyrus.com Mom and dad were working on it for a long time last night. Mom says its for me to be a stud......I just tell her im already a stud!!!
Mom just got a new job she was really tired of her old one...she says that there was too much drama for her to deal with anyway so shes happy now...
Grammie had to go into the hospital again for a nother kidney stone.. but shes back home now...mom says that kidney stones are really painful. I hope that I never get one of those!!!
mom says that she will probably have them as well as daddy too cause both thier parents have had them.... Dad always tells mom to drink more water but she HATES water so she will probably be the first to have one!!!
last night mom was taking so many pictures of me and I was actually having fun while she was taking them ...I was strikin' a pose left and right!!!
and mom gave me some trukey lunch meat for a treat....I was so happy cause Im not really allowed to have any human food...... (well when they are looking anyways) Mom said that when I was a baby I ate a marbel and it came out plain as day!!! and then I chewed up a whole tube of a bingo ink dabber...it was a pretty turqoise color and mom said that it took her an hour to clean it off my white little baby paws and mouth!!! I had it everywhere!!! it was fun!!! Mom wasnt having much fun though cause she was freaking out calling the poisin control center and vets from all around to see what they could do for me...I wasnt sick at all...I was having a good time!!
She finally found out it was non toxic.....but I was pooping truqoise for a week!!!
Now that made mom and dad laugh but I didnt think it was too funny though...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!




We had so much fun on halloween (well mom and dad called halloween the block party) Mom and dad were Pirates and my costume wouldnt fit me so mom and Kelly went and got me a different costume and I was 'Zorro'. I was really weird!! I had a fancy cape and the hat...it came with a mask that went over my eyes but I thought it was too annoying and tasty for me to have on my face so I tried to eat it!!!
Later that night Kelly and Justin and Kaycie and Alex all came over to get ready for the block party....they were all dancing around and drinking stuff that smelled like mom's cough syrup and drinking out of wee little cups...big enough to gulp down...They had a great time....every one was taking pictures and we all had our costumes on and we were all just acting funny and having a blast!!!
I wish it was Halloween every day!!! well minus the going to the block party...I of course couldnt go...mom said that we all wouldnt fit in a cab but I didnt think I would take up that much room, but I guess there was no point in arguing with her when everyone was on her side...But I was pretty tired after all the excitement though!!!
here I am in my costume...Mom and dad got a whole lot more pictures but of course most of them were really silly and crazy and mom says that most of them come with a story too long to post on the net....
I HOPE YOU HALLOWEEN WAS AS GOOD AS MINE!!!!

oohh fall!!




I was so bored today that I tore up my new toy.... eh... what the heck its only a toy right?
I think mom was a little mad that I got the stuffing all over the place though....
Mom told me that I better brace myself cause when dad gets home we are watching another episode of nip/tuck.......uuuugggghhhh......
I had a blast playing in the leaves today..the colors are so pretty!!! I had a lot of fun today!!!
yesterday my dad took me into his work to see everyone...I got to wear my bandanna its camo green..I love it....
ohhhh only 1 and half days until Alex and Kaycie are comming home!!!

Daddys car took a crap on him and so now mom and dad take mom's car everywhere...and I have to ride in the back I hate it in the back...yuck I get car sick!!! I cant wait til dad get a new one...
well mom's in a mood again Id better go....

Snow in October?

Man was it cold today!!! I wouldn't even step a paw on the grass cause it was way too cold outside AND....It was SNOWING!!!! I couldn't understand what the heck was going on!!! My butt got cold, my toes got cold, my ears got cold....Gosh everything was cold!!!! Mom took me in and got one of her old tshirts and stuck it on me.... dad said it was okay cause it was green like my collar and it looked like a boy's shirt.... So I got to wear it outside....it didn't bother me none cause I was so cold!!! Did I mention I was cold?!!!!
Mom decided that I was old enough to call her mom instead of mommy.... So I definitely agree...Unless I want something that is.....You know, like a cookie or a piece of turkey, or oh my favorite..Ice cream!!! yum!!! Heck I'll call her anything to get me some ice cream!!!!

Mom said that uncle Alex and aunt Kaycie are coming home friday to go to the block party on saturday with mom and dad.... I guess Zoey is going to be a little devil... I can't wait to see her in her costume!!! I bet she looks so perty!!!
Im kinda mad at mom cause well for one, she hasn't got my pirate costume out yet, for two she keeps spraying this girly stuff around the house and for 3 she gave me a bath last night with this lavender oil stuff that she thought would knock me out and calm me to go to sleep....I didn't like it very much so of course I protested....
Mom went outside and took some real cool pictures...She says its the best time to take pictures...I know what that means...That means I will never get to sleep!!!!
Mom and dad moved the house around again...I hate it when they do that!! I just get comfortable and they move things around...uggghhh!!! Mom says that it was time for a fall cleaning and an adjustment of "chi" in the house ....Mom is in to Feng Shui whatever that means...I would just like to get my jaws on her book though...Its real soft and the pages smell real scrumptious!!! yum....
So of course they cleaned the whole place while I sat around and watched....I tried to help load the dish washer though....turns out im too heavy to stand on the door....who woulda thunk it?!!!
I guess its Nip/Tuck season again....thats what I call it when mom and dad go into a zombie state watching their favorite show nip/tuck..... They go crazy over it and are always trying to figure out who "there carver"is Mom and dad have their suspicions that its the other Doctor that is now in with the practice..... Mom hates Julia...she says she is so dramatic acting about everything and makes a real good impression of her....Dad thinks that Matt, the son is a little punk now....And they both think equally that Kimber is hot.....I guess its not weird since mommy isn't ashamed to say it.......
Mom and dad were thinking about going as Detective Kit McGraw and Christian Troy for Halloween but they had already bought their costumes and I sure as heck aren't gonna go as frisky the gerbil since thats about the only little part in the nip tuck series....I guess I could go as the scar faced gorilla Kiki that was featured in one of the episodes but eh...I like being a pirate better........Well I'm not in a very good mood today so I'm gonna go take a nap....

look at my new friend!!


Here is my new friend!! I haven't caught his name yet becasue everytime I see him when I go out, he runs up into the drain pipe...Thats where he lives hes pretty funny...and fast too!!
Mom says I should call him chip cause hes a chipmunk....mom says that hes is the skinniest chipmunk she has ever saw...usually they have fat little bellies and cheeks full of goodies like me!!! I had to get rid of my pet piggie for a while while mommy figures out why it will mess up the blog on internet explorer but not on mozilla....mommy says the coding is complicated so I didnt ask.......
Well yesterday mommy and daddy went to mommy's mommys house(grammie#2) and they brought me back something to wear on my neck...its a corrective collar that I am supposed to use at night when I start barking like a crazy boy as dad says....I guess I have been getting on thier nerves with my yelling all night but its only cause I am mad at them for not playing with me at my prowling hour which is usually around 11:30 or 12:00am depending on how much and when I ate that day... anyway if I bark real loud it will beep at me to tell me to stop and if I just ignore the beep it will give me an annoying little shock....it doesnt hurt though. Grammie2 trains her weimeriner puppies not to bark at night with it and she says that it works very well!!! Sammie, aunt Bayleigh's new puppy is a whole lot younger than me and he has already been trained with the same collar I am using!! So I guess it works...but I've found out that if I bark real soft or just wine a little bit, the collar doesn't hear me and I can still make noises!!! I love to find the loopholes!!! So if I act real good and dont bark for a couple weeks when I have it on then that means Im trained!!!
I got to sleep in real late today....I am real comfortable in my new bed so I love to sleep all the time now!!! I also was able to jump up on the couch and take a short snooze today so that was very nice!!! Mommy just let me sleep for a while and after about a half hour mom sat down next to me and said "are you done yet" I was like "what" then she snapped the camera at me and said "Cyrus you sound like you are sawing logs over there" I though it was funny and so did she so we laughed together and then went outside which is what I need to go do right now so ....c-ya!!

My Territory

I now have my own pet piggie like mommy!! Hes fun you can feed him apples and spray him with water and he will oink and roll in the mud till you spray him off!!!!
Well, mommy came home yesterday after work and she was in real bad mood and so she took a nap and she must have woken up on the right sight of the bed cause she was nicer then. She jumped right on the computer and played her game.... In case you don't know, my mommy is addicted...yes I said addicted.....shes addicted to a computer game. Its called Age Of Empires III.
Daddy got the full version for her and now I never see her!! She comes home from work and then shes a zombie on the computer playing her game....Daddy's friend Zach told him not to get it for her if he wanted to see her cause he said he was addicted to it too!!!!
Well thanks a lot dad.....Thanks for nuthin'
While she was playing her game (and not paying any attention to me by the way) I decided to take a stroll around our apartment and realized that mommy and daddy's bedroom door was half open. So I decided to check it out. What I found wasnt pretty.... I walked around to mommy's side of the bed and realized that I smelled daddy on MINE AND MOMMY'S BLANKET!!! So I did the only right thing a little stud like me should do.... I jumped up on the bed and MARKED MY TERRITORY!!! Thats right! I peed all over our blanket so that daddy would realize that I dont want him using what's mine! (well and mommy's) It was Mommy's blanket first anyway. She wont even let daddy sleep with it most of the time because she's stingy with her covers.....(well I dont blame her I mean come on its only a queen sized comforter- down filled , soft ,nice and comfy too but any ways..yeah its too small for everyone to use it!!!) (Eventhough I am not allowed to sleep with it, I dont want my dady sleeping with it either) And I smelled my daddy on that blanket...that means that he was using it and that means he is breaking the rules!!!.....So I did what I had to do....
The only thing was..I realized that it was mommies blanket too and she's very protective over it and she'd be mad when she saw it cause it is so big and bulky to wash.....So I tippy toed out in the living room and when she glanced over at me I instantly thought she knew...like a mothers intuition or something and so I hunched down and layed flat on the floor knowing that I was in the wrong and I knew I would be in big trouble....So she instantly said "what did you do?" and I was so upset...well so was she.. so I went and layed at her feet while she pre-treated (or as she calls it "pee-treated) the blankie and stuffed it into the washer....I was so sorry.....I'll probably do it again though cause I dont think that it went across to daddy the way I wanted it to cause' he just kept saying "bad dog" and he should know by now that I am not just any dog.....
well the worst I got from it was a half hour in time out and some mean looks but hey Ill take that over taking away my own bed anyday....that really sucked last time!!! I'm not made to sleep on the hard linoleum floor with out some cushion......
Oh...Mommy told me not to swallow any guts from my froggie and lambie cause Rollie's puppy swallowed a whole bunch of it and had to be put in the hospital!!! hes still real sick Im worried for him...Rollie said that he was puking all night... I hate to puke I know he must be feeling pretty bad...I told Rollie to be strong though cause mommy said that animals are psychic and real sensitive and they know when you are worried and stuff...I think she's right ;)

what a nice day!!




Today was so nice out! I got to spend the day outside!!! I love sunning myself in the grass!!! And, the best thing is....I dont need any sunscreen!!!! hehehe
Today was mommy's favorite cousin Jessi's birthday party...of course I couldn't go so I was pouting but I had fun sleeping in!! Mommy had to wake me up and I was kinda cranky when she got home!!
Earlier today aunt Bayleigh, mommys mom and dad were here to pick up mommy and daddy to go to the party and I was so excited!!! But, daddy says that I need to work on the no jumping on visitors rule in our house or I'll be in big trouble!!!
I hate it when I get in trouble....
My aunt Tara hasnt been over to see me in a while....Mommy has been so busy lately that she hasnt returned any of her calls or anything!!! I think mommy is going to be in big trouble too!!!
Well Im going to go try out my new bed mommy fixed me after I got my baffie!!! Talk to you later!!! Bye bye!!!

boring old saturday

Well today was pretty boring for me cause' we went to grammies house and she wasn't there and I could only stay in the kitchen and mommy wouldnt let me roam around. She says that its because I like to put off my scent in the house and mark my territory..... I dont see any wrong in that but I guess mommy does. Daddy painted grammies garage and fence and he smelled all funny like stinky paint!! we ended up going home and I played with my froggie again....Now my froggie doesnt have a voice or a leg!! I guess I play too rough with him!!
Mommy took more pictures of me and she caught me sleeping on the couch again...Im not really allowed on the couch but I think if I'm real quiet I can sneek a rest on it every once in a while!!
Daddy took me out today and we found a big mushroom growing under a pine tree so mommy took pictures of it.... Daddy says she is real good at it now and so she takes pictures of everything!!! Her mommy always thought it was stupid when she took pictures of stuff that her mommy wasnt into but people tell her that it pays off in the long run so she kept doing it and now shes perty good... Daddy tells her she has a real eye for pretty things and art.....She must cause she takes pictures of me all the time!!! LOL!!! Daddy keeps telling me not to get a big head about this new fame thing but Im still soo excited!!!! Im going to try to sneek some zzzz's on the couch while no one is looking, so talk to you later!!!

Its about time!!!


Man!! its been a long time since mommy let me back on here!!! We didnt do much this weekend...mommy and daddy went to aunt Kelly and Uncle Justin's house and ate pizza and didnt even bring me any home!!! Mommy says that its not good for dogs to eat people food but I am no dog! What is she thinking??!! But Uncle Justin did send home some cookies he made - yes he made them not aunt Kelly!!! Mommy was so shocked cause usually guys cant bake, she says "men can cook but not usually bake" and let me tell you they were delicious!!! Dont tell mommy but I got into them when she was in the shower...I even ate some of the baggie they were in too!! I dont think it has came out yet though if ya know what I mean!! Mommy also told me that every friday is "movie night" at Uncle Justin and aunt Kelly's and I CAN'T come....Im not too happy about it either.
Our Internet has been all messed up theese past few days and I havent been very happy lately cause I havent been able to play with mommy or daddy cause they are on the computer trying to fix it like every day and I need some attention sometimes you know!!!?
Mommy just got her Halloween costume yesterday she is going to be " ruby the pirate beauty" she looks real funny and her boots taste real good...I get yelled at all the time for getting into the closet and chewing on them... Daddy hasnt got his yet though....
I got to go to grammies today with mommy on her day off.. it was funny cause they were dying each others hair and putting theese funny shiny things in thier hair mommy calles it foil but I just like to chew on them!!! mommy has that real deep dark red in her hair again it looks real neat and daddy really likes it so I guess I do too!!!
well its getting late so I am going to see if I can sneek a snack from daddy before bed again!!!

UH oh!!!



Oh my goodness!!! I must really be a stud!! I have 3 girls all after me now!!!I WOULD say Its nothin baby theres enough of me to go around but my REAL girlfriend Zoey would be real mad!!! Mommy says Id better behave myself for now cause thats how young men like me get thierselves into big trouble!!
Last night our power went off and it was really weird!! Mommy and daddy lit a bunch of stinky candels and had to open the windows cause it was soo hot without our air conditioning!!! Daddy gave me a bowl of ice to munch on cause I was burning up!!! We ended up going to grammies last night cause mommy said that she had to take a shower and couldnt do it in the dark!!! While we were there, uncle Alex called daddy and I wanted to talk to him sooo bad but mean old daddy wouldnt let me!! He and aunt Kaycie are in Cincinnatti for college and havent been back to visit in a few weeks...I miss them a whole lot!!! (I think mommy and daddy do too!!) Uncle Alex always brings me a new greenie almost everytime I see him!!! I cant wait until halloween cause they are comming home to celebrate with mommy and daddy!!! I wonder what costume Zoey is going to wear for halloween....hmmmm I have a picture of Zoey that mommy has up on the fridge and I look at her all the time shes a real doll. Mommy says that someday we are going to have babies... But we have to wait until Zoey gets to be about a year and half old first... I am able to be a stud right now. Thats what mommy and daddy says. Im not sure what that means but I like the ring of it!!
Oh its raining outside and I hate it cause I have to be stuck indoors all day!!! Ive been watching The Pirates of the Caribbean again today (have I mentioned that its my favorite movie?) and mommy has been taking more pictures of me... Id better get used to it cause I dont think she's going to stop!!!
I swear daddy better play with me when he gets hom cause I heard mommy telling him that they are going over to uncle Justin and aunt Kellys tonight and Im not allowed to go....oh Im telling you Im going on strike...I will do it...I will!!!
well I think Im going to tell mommy I have to go outside now so Ill talk to you later, bye bye!!

Well today was a weidr day for me because mommy didnt say by to me and then daddy left in a hurry for work and when mommy came home she was right on the computer talking to aunt Melinda.... And you know what?? Mommy told me that Rollie said that she might have a crush on me!!! Can you believe that? A real crush...On me!!! Wow!! I think Im in love!!! Mommy says I dont know what love love is yet but I will someday.....I dont know but Im excited!!
Well I got into trouble again today because that mean old chi wa wa was mean to me again today!! A couple of weeks ago daddy and I were going for a walk and past his house and I just wanted to give him a lick and say hi... well he was real grumpy and bit me in the face...it hurt my feelings...I moped around all day after that....
Mommy says that his mom or grandma is kinda nuts anyway, so I kinda feel sorry for him having to deal with her all day long!!! But man he doesnt have to be so mean!!
I got him back though by doing my business on his bush outside his house!!!
Man where is my daddy? I have been waiting for him all day long and he is an hour and half late!!! I have been driving mommy crazy by yelling and pacing the door for him!!!
He had better bring me a water bottle when he comes home or Im going on strike!!!
Thats right Im going on strike with Rollie!! Its called the Gets No Love Dog Strike!!!
We will start a new dog love movement you will see!!
Ooooh wait gotta go mommy has the pumpkin cookies out!!! Yummmmmm!!!!

what a beautiful day!!


Today I was so excited because once mommy got home she took me for a long walk. I got to wear my bandanna and play in the leaves! I love wearing my bandanna it is camo green just like my collar. Mommy said that she thought all dogs were color blind but I can see all colors. I can even distinguish between red and pink. I love pink.It was the color of shirt mommy was wearing when she first saw me! Ever since then mommy and daddy let me pick out toys wherever we go that allow dogs. I usually like to pick green ones when my daddy is around. I think he likes green too. I have a blankie that has pink and green on it!! Daddy says that pink is for girls but I dont mind, just as long as mommy doesnt dress me up in it I'll be fine!! I love autumn! Mommy planted some mums and asters outside and I think they taste yucky. mommy says they are poisinous to doggies so Im glad I didnt swallow them!! mommy took a picture and one of them looked like I was a flower!!! I said as perty as a bullflower!!!
Mommy made pumpkin cookies last night and I have been begging for them ever since we got home!! I think I have a secret look that makes mommy give me some of her food everytime. Daddy says that they shouldnt give table scraps to dogs cause he used to have a doggie named Beau and he got real fat and mean. I told them not to worry about the mean part in me cause I am a lover not a fighter!!
I am so excited for halloween cause I get to be a pirate this year!! Mommy is going as a girl pirate and I get to help pass out candy!! They wont let me go to the block party down here at OU. I heard them tell uncle Justin and aunt Kelly that it wouldnt be safe for me to go. Mommy thinks I will get scared. Im not scared Im a tough guy!!
I want to be Captain Jack Sparrow off of Pirates of the Caribbean!! But I think Daddy was thinking about being that but he hasnt made up his mind yet though. well Im going to go eat some real food not those yucky flowers anymore!!!

what fun!



I just got a baffie!!! Mommy said that I needed to get another one this week cause I smelled like this stinky medicine she always puts on my wrinkles. I had so much fun running and jumping!! Mommy took pictures of me. I get embarrassed in front of the camera though! When daddy came home yesterday we played for a long time. I am getting real strong!! Daddy says I am almost too strong!! Mommy is no fun cause when I try to play with her she gets frusterated when I chew on her!!
I got into trouble today cause after my baffie I ran my rounds in the Cyrus 500 and then jumped on the couch and found mommies new book. It smelled real perty and I tasted it a little. but mommy caught me and said it was time for bed. I tried to protest but I guess I was yelling too loud cause daddy got mad at me to and said "to bed". I know those words real well. I like to sleep but I wasnt done playing yet!! But it was okay though cause later daddy slipped me an emtpy water bottel to play with in my room after mommy went to bed. Gotta love daddies!! Well its my bed time so, you know what that means!!!

new picture


My mommy said that I look funny in that picture so I had to pick out a new one. Mommy said that that picture doesnt show how handsome I am. I know I am handsome, I don't know of any other bulldog that gets a baffie once a week. Sometimes I get a baffie twice cause I get dirty outside. I dont think I get that dirty but mommy just wants me to stay safe and sound. But I hate that stuff she always sprays on me. It smells like a girl.. Mommy gets frusterated with me and tells me that I am "such a boy". Thank god daddy wouldnt let mommy paint my nails, then I really would get made fun of! Besides I already have a girlfriend, or at least thats what daddy tells me. Her name is Zoey she is a bulldog too!! she came over to my house once with uncle Alex and aunt Kaycie we played it was fun!! But she got real sleepy only after a little bit of playing and had to lay down. Mommy said I shouldn't bother her much cause shes a lot younger than me and she needs to rest. I dont ever remember being too tired to play!! I love to play!!
My aunt Bayleigh just got a new puppy too. But only her puppy is real tall and even younger than me!!
My daddy should be comming home soon. He had to take grammie to the doctor for a pointment. I cant wait till daddy comes home. Mommy keeps telling me to quit pacing at the door but I can't help it I am so excited!!

I get to have a dog blog too!!


Hello!!
I am a 9 (almost 10) month old english bulldog named Cyrus. Well actually my fancy name is Prince Cyrus Jones The Great. Mommy says that I am registered with the akc, whatever that means...all I know is, I am the baby of the family....
I live in Athens Ohio...I absolutely love to go to petland and make fun of all the little doggies in the windows. Mommy says its not very nice but I dont mind at all...
My second bestest thing to do is to play with my daddy. Hes real strong but Im getting stronger and sometimes I can get him down. I like to wrestle and jump on my daddys belly. He always makes funny growls when I do that!!
Mommy is my lovie!! I love to give her kisses. I like to sleep on her side of the bed but only with mommy, not daddy... Mommy wont let me sleep in the bed anymore because mommy gets mad when I have accidents on her big white soft fluffy down comforter. I think she thinks they are just accidents but really I just do it on purpose so that way daddy wont sleep on mine and mommies blanket!! Mommy smells much better than daddy does!!
We used to stay at grammies a lot. I love my grammie! She always gives me treats!! And she talks to me nice like mommy does!!
she has a pool and a big back yard I always lay on lawn chairs when its sunny out. Mommy and grammie laughs at me all the time when I do that. But I dont like those big things in the pool, they move around all the time and I try to scare them off but they arent scared of me. It makes me real mad!!
My grammie has a kitty with 6 toes on his hands, he doesnt like me much though. Daddy says that I am just to big to play with him. But I dont think so. I must be growin real big cause I used to be able to sit on mommies lap all the time when we go for car rides but now she makes me sit in the back and I cant see very good from back there...I like to be up high so that way I can see everyone. My daddy always laughs at me cause I like to get on the arm of the couch. Daddy tells me that I am not very agile but I dont know what that means so I just wiggle my tail pocket and smile! My daddy likes to play on the computer and I get really mad and yell at him... Mommy tells me to quit sassing but I dont know what that means either... So I just wag my tail pocket and smile !!
thats what I do when I dont understand cause that way they cant get mad at me!! Mommy calls me a little fat bellied pig I think its funny causeI sometimes watch piggies on the animal planet.. Mommy says that she always wanted a pot bellied pig, so I try to act like one!!!

Mommy asked me if I wanted a dog blog and I said sure!!! Mommie said that my aunt Melinda and uncle Hunter has a dog blog for thier little girl named Rollie. I cant wait to meet her. Mommy says that she gets to play in the creek sometimes. I wish I could play in the creek. Mommy says I cant swim very good but I think I can. Daddy puts me in grammies pool sometimes... I just like to float on those big things that I try to scare off.. Thats the only time I like them. Maybe if I lay down in the tub when I get a baffie mommy will see that I am not scared of the water and then think that I can swim okay... Mommy gets reall funny about me getting dirty. Mommy says that she will not have a stinky puppy in her house, so I try to stay clean so I can sit on the couch with her! Besides I like to get a baffie cause mommy and daddy laugh at me real hard when I run around the house! They call it the Cyrus 500 and its the only time I get to run in the house when mommy is home. Daddy lets me run real fast sometimes when mommy isnt home! Just dont tell mommy, she will get daddy in trouble and then I will have to "behave" well I have to go now its time for my nap....Talk to you soon bye bye!!
