The End of Summer

Summer has come to an end. It's now time for going back to school. Here's a look back at how Murphy spend his last dog days of summer. Summer may be over, but we're excited for fall and winter- less people on the beach and cooler, beautiful weather. These photos are all taken by Anton with his water-proof camera. Check out his blog The Birdman Tribe for more sweet photos. 

Just keeping cool...

He's coming for you...

Look out!

Ahhh! Prancing puggle!

Puppy Videos

I found a couple of Murphy's puppy videos to share with everyone. He was such a silly little puppy. He's grown so much, but he's still a wild and crazy puggle. I hope these videos get a few laughs! Enjoy : )

At home

Here's some photos of Murphy just being himself around the house. He goes where the action is, whether it's out sunning on the deck or helping Dad exercise.

  

Back to San Diego

Hi everyone! We took another trip down to San Diego to visit the family. We enjoyed the nice weather. It was in the upper 70s everyday. Murphy got some new indestructible toys at Muttropolis. The Earth ball can fit treats inside and smells like peppermint to freshen stinky puppy breath! Murphy also had to take a bath while down south, cause he was rolling around in the dirt all the time. 

Trip to SD

Murphy loves going down to San Diego to visit the family. They always give him new toys and lots of loving. Plus he loves to hang out in the backyard and bark at all the dogs that go by. He got a new toy that holds a water bottle inside it that can be replaced. He loved crunching that bottle! 

Summertime

It's summertime- that means time for Frosty Paws and buddies. Murphy had a play day with his best bud, Kona. Kona is a cute little "chiweenie" with an attitude. They chase each other around all day and then just lounge. 

Frosty Paw!

The Beach

Murph's favorite place is the beach. He loves to wade in the water and dig in the sand. There is just something about the salty breeze. Here are some pictures of Murph at different beaches. In LA county, Murph has to walk on the boardwalk while his dad is surfing, because dogs aren't allowed on the beach.

Anton's Blog

Murph says to check out his buddy Anton's blog. 

Above is a picture Anton took of Murph at the dog park a while back.

BBQ

It's been so hot here during the day- over 100. Murph hasn't been happy about having to stay inside. So last night, we decided to take him out to a BBQ where he could hang out with all his friends. He thought about jumping into the pool, but decided he'd rather hang with his buddy, Chilly. 

Baby Murph

Here's some baby pictures of Murphy when we first got him in December 2007.  

Who can resist this face?

Always been such a chewer

Play hard, then sleep hard
