Riyo's Place

I have a new brother!

2008-06-17T09:20:00.005-05:00

As you can see, I have a new little brother now. His name is Mr. Darcy. You can also call him "Darcy" or "NO." He has a lot to learn, but he's fun to play with. I'm the boss around here though, no question. Here I am with Darcy and my special Grrrizon cell phone.

I said MY PHONE!!! NOOO!!!! MINE!!!

Darcy, I told you that's mine. Give it back!!

Don't give me that innocent baby face! You stole my phone! Fine, you can have it....Just do NOT take my favoritest ball.

He's not too bad. We hang out, take naps, and play together. It's fun even though he does steal my toys sometimes.

I started my very own business..Riyo Pets!

Here's my bag I made for my stuff. What do you think?!

I tee tee'd on the floor a little bit when I was little, so I came up with this stuff to make it go away. That way mom doesn't find out about my accidents.

Here are my bandanas. We're making our first ones here you see?! I cut them all out myself.

It's hard work overseeing this project!

I'm working hard here making my bandanas and collars

See! Didn't I do a great job!

Here, I am modeling. This is my Collar Couture, in standard bandana maroon. Lovely. You can see my other designs too.

Here I am modeling again, from the back. Yay!! I'm working on more things every day. I even put together my own website. www.riyopets.com. I am one hard working pup!!!

My first snow.....

2008-06-16T11:23:00.007-05:00

Here I am in a place called Arkansas. These COLD white things started falling on me! I stayed out to play for a while, and it was fun, but I got so cold! Those white things got me wet!

See! White Thingies! They are all in my hair. I think it looks pretty on me, don't you?

Mom, I'm cold. I think I want to go inside now......

My adventure through dangerous lands....

2008-03-07T21:57:00.009-06:00

My Adventure.....

Here is where I started my great adventure. There were big loud car things everywhere! I skillfully made my way past these dangerous machines and found myself in a big wild place. They could not catch Riyo!

Here I am in the great wilderness....I am carefully surveying the surroundings, looking for any dangerous creatures.

Down I go into a deep dark tunnel. I wasn't afraid, I went in and even passed scary people creatures! I am fearless Riyo!

I emerged from the great dark tunnel and came over a great hill overlooking a wide and deep lake...

......and then over a long and wide bridge over dangerous waters....

Agh!! WHOA! What was that?!

At the top of the mountain, I stopped to look at all the land I had traveled...

I need to potty. Are you kidding me? Bags?

Here we go, I'll be right back.

This is a long journey, I am getting tired....

Whoa! What is that in there? That's not a dog! It's huge! Run away! Run away!
Time to go home anyway, before mom sees I'm gone.

My Road Trip!

2008-01-30T21:59:00.000-06:00

I LOVE road trips! We go back and forth from my houses all the time. It's a long drive, but I love it! BUT, MOM, what do you have this radio on! Ugh, you are SO in the wrong decade. It's ok. I'll fix it.

Alright. Radio set, sunny day, I'm ready to go! You got all my stuff right?

We go this way every time. We turn at Carrie Underwood's town. Do you know her? I listen to her songs sometimes. I like her cheating song. I'd take that no good boyfriend! You get him Carrie.

Lunch break!!! Awww mom, do I have to share? Sis ALWAYS gets the bigger piece. I see you sis, don't even think about making a move.

WHAT? Ifts vwery yzhummyy.

Ahhhh. Nap time. At least she's not on the phone. Something about stupid phone, Oklahoma, crappy signal...whatever mom. I'll hold it for you

We almost there?

Ahhhhh....This is the life. Hey! That's Texas! We're almost home. Did that sign say "Drive Friendly, The Texas Way?" Ha! I guess they've never been to Dallas.

HEY!!! MOM!!! I fall asleep for a while and everything goes wrong! LOOK!!! You have no gas! We'll never get home!!!

Aww geez. That was close, but we made it.

I got it! I'll have it filled up in no time!

That was a long day. I'll see you guys next time!!!!!

My Most Favoritest Ball and big sis

2008-01-30T21:07:00.001-06:00

Hi! This is my ball. It's the best ball ever. It is REALLY squeaky and loud, just soft enough for perfect chewing. It squeaks when I jump on it too. I like to jump on top of it with both paws! The best time to chew on my ball is when mom starts talking on that phone thing. That's the best way to make her throw it over and over again. Hehehe. I just bring it right back and squeak it next to her ear.

My Big Sis and my Ball again

This is my ball again, and my big sis in the background. My ball is much more fun than big sis. She never wants to play and she just lays around. Sometimes she gets really annoying and tries to get on MY couch, or take my chewies. But, I keep her in line. See! I made her roll over. Ha. I'm the boss around these parts. Mom says sis is something like a Shepherd/Pitt...that would make her a SH-ITT. People must get us confused or something, cause they call me that all the time. Silly people. Don't know the difference between a Papillon and a Sh-Itt. Pfft.

Back to my favoritest ball!!!

Coffe Please!

2008-01-26T14:45:00.001-06:00

Well, mom decided we had to go to work today, so I stopped to get a latte. Grande soy latte please.

We went to the store and I got a new bag! I love my bags. Do you like my picture on the side?

I know the pictures look a little fuzzy. Mom was really mad at the camera, she finally figured out that I licked the lense. Hahahaha!

Well, I'm done with my blog for today. Must get to work.

2008-01-25T15:02:00.000-06:00

Oh the wind is in my eyes!!!

Wow it's windy! But I love my walking club!
We go to neat places and walk and walk and walk.

I thought I'd pose during my break. I love how
the wind blows my ears...

It's a new year!!

2008-01-24T22:45:00.001-06:00

Well, 2007 was a tough year, but I made it through the holidays. Lots of things happened in 2007. I left my brother and friends and moved with my mom. It was pretty scary when she first picked me up. I didn't know what was happening or where I was going. I didn't want to come out of my cave!! But mom made some really yummy chicken when we got home and I had to come out and have some. I sat in her lap the rest of the day and never wanted to leave! She better not get away from me! I never like her to get out of my sight. I don't like anybody else to come near her! Mom think's that's a problem, but she doesn't know what's best. I have to watch out for her you know. There are so many scary big people creatures out there that aren't mom!!! They are really scary. I don't tell, but they scare me. I have to chase them off, so I gotta show'em I'm tough.

Why does mom think this is bad? She keeps saying "NO, NO, STOP IT." What does that mean? My name is R-I-Y-O, geez mom. Just stand back, I'll protect you.

My big sis is silly. She doesn't seem to think people creatures are very scary. I don't get it. She tells them to go away sometimes, then she just goes up and lets them pat her head and stuff. Is she crazy??? Then, get this, she's such a dummy, she gets mad at other PUPS. What's another pup like us going to do. It's the people you gotta watch out for. She goes crazy when she sees other dogs. I try to support her, but it's a waste of time. Mom knows it's silly, she makes her stop going nuts and sit down. Sis gets in realy big trouble. She doesn't understand! The REAL threat are the people creatures that aren't mom! Ugh, she just doesn't get it.
