I just got back from the Vet and I lost 4 lbs!!! Mom can’t believe it. She still says I should not go around begging food from people. What she doesn’t know won’t hurt her. Killer gained ½ lb and he doesn’t even beg. Go figure that one out.

: This is Gummy Girl. She liked my bone and wanted to take it home with her. I don’t mind sharing at all, but her mom said no.

: Shasia was very pretty. She joined mom and me at the sing-a-long. I think she wanted to play the drums but her mom said no. Maybe next time.

: Mom messed up and forgot this friends name. She put it in her phone and still messed up. I really think she is loosing it and she thinks I’m getting old.

: This is Lilly and Sea Sea. Their mom is a dog trainer and boy can they do stuff. I was very impressed. She got them to sit still for the picture first try.

: This is Little Bear. She was here with her mom and dad. She has two other dogs in her family. It was hard for mom to get all three in the picture.

: Lucy and I visited every day she was here. She has good food. Mom buys me senior diet stuff but Lucy get the good stuff.

: His name is Moose. Sure don’t look like a moose to me. I have a hard time imagining him with horns like the kind mom has in the lodge.

: Morgan is a service dog. He sure looks sharp in his vest

: Peanut and Toby made introductions in the lodge. Lots of friends meet and greet here at the Rendezvous.

: Peety was real good as posing for his picture. Some of my friends move around a lot but Peety has it down. Good Job Peety!!!

: This is Pepper. He liked the view from his camper. He really didn’t want to come out and play with me. I don’t think he wanted to get his clothes dirty.

: Percy got have one of mom’s artsy shots. I think it was by mistake but Percy looks good.

: I am pretty sure that this is Max. Mom did it again. She lost his name. It should be on her desk, but have you seen mom’s desk? Good luck with that one.

: Fussa was asking her mom if she could play with me, pretty please?

: Jasper and her mom came over. She was very pretty with all that long curly hair. I have always wanted curly hair. So has my mom.

: This is Max. He is like me only a lot younger, He can play longer than me, it’s a bummer getting old.

: Sadie was a very proper lady. She sat to say hello to me.

: Princess, Duke and Tooties are soooo cute. Fun for dad to walk with the three leashes.

: This is Mommas’s and Rebel. They really had a good time in the spring and the cut swimming. Their dad had the whole family in the water and they had fun.

: This is Reef Boy. He is just a puppy but very well behaved. He enjoyed his time at the Rendezvous. Swimming and running around. I am sure he will really like the new dog park that mom and dad are putting in for all my friends.

: Rogan is related to Sophie and I think that he liked the cold tile too. It was really hot on the days they were here and I even got off my sofa to lay on the floor.

: This is Romeo, a very handsome chocolate lab. I think that makes us cousins.

: This is Roger Daltry “from the Who”, that’s what his mom and dad said, honest. Pretty famous and he was at the Rendezvous.

: Sloppy had his brother and sister come in for his picture. He didn’t want to be on camera. Some of my friends are a little camera shy but mom does her best.

: Sophie really liked the cold tile on her tummy. I think she could have laid there all day.

: Sophie and I were watching TV and her mom decided to join us. I made room for her. The other people had to sit on the other sofa.

: This is Sugar Bear and Dulainea. Dulainea is actually a great grand dog but she has been part of the family for a while now. Their Mom and Dad are busy with these three and their leashes. Very sweet and they like to explore and sniff out stuff.

: These two friends have real cool names even if mom can’t pronounce them. Taffiki and Guapo.

: One more guest from Thanksgiving with the lost name. We had a lot of visitors that weekend and I was able to meet a lot of friends. I hope they all come back.

: This is another guest from Thanksgiving. Mom has misplaced the name of three of my friends from that weekend. Hopefully their moms or dads will e-mail mom with the names.

: This is Buster and Quigley. I got worn out waiting for mom to get the picture. She takes soooo many pictures and then she uses one. I think she needs more practice or a better camera. These guys were very patient with mom being slow and all.

: Brownie was watching the chicken by the Shack. He didn’t want to chase her, just watch her, real close.

: You think this makes my butt look big? I was waiting for the food. Sometimes my friends shair with me. Mom says I am not to beg and I don’t really. I sort of guard the area and protect the food.

: This is Chloe. Mom tried to fix her eyes but no luck. Chloe has really pretty eyes, not the zombee ones that mom got a picture of.

: This is Coco and he is just a puppy and full of energy. I can barely remember the day when I had that much energy.

: This is Nick. His mom is like a professional photographer. She took this picture of Nick and she took some of me too. Nick likes to play ball and he braught his own.

: This is Dink. His sister held him so mom could get his picture. His tail was going so fast I thought he was going to take off.

: Foxy Lady is just beautiful. Her mom and dad must comb her every day. I am lucky if mom brushes me once a month.

: Pearl and Spice came to visit for the first time. They were so gentle and sweet. Their mom and dad said that they were rescues. I visited them every day while they were here and I hope they come back again soon.

I have so many friends here at the Rendezvous that I needed more room for pictures.

: This is Dulcimer. She is very pretty and she likes it here at the Rendezvous. Her mom plays the Church Organ and she is named for one of the stops. Pretty cool name.

: This is Mac from Scotland, his ancestors anyway. He was very interesting to talk to. I have never had a friend from Scotland before.

: Mack Diesel is just a young guy but very well behaved. He is named after a truck and I think his mom and dad think he is going to get as big as a truck. He does have pretty big feet.

: Mattie was nice to visit me but I was in the middle of my nap time and I just couldn’t get up.

: This is Mayo and Champ. Their mom and dad found these two and now they live with them. They were learning the art of begging while at the Rendezvous. I have it pretty well mastered but I do share my technique with the new comers.

: Millie is just the cutest little thing. She liked me too. I can’t wait for her to come back.

: This is Nicklaus. He was so cute, a little frightened of me because I’m bigger than him but we became friends once I showed him how gentle I am.

: Peanut Butter ( white and brown) and Jelly (black) stayed for several days and I got to know them pretty well. Jelly was a bit scared at first but I won her over. Her mom and dad gave me a biscuit every morning when I visited.

: Raisin was afraid of me. She is so small and I am so big. I like little ones; I lay down so they can look me in the eyes. Then they are usually not afraid of me.

: I was telling Random about all the good food we have here at the Rendezvous. My waist line has grown a bit and mom says I can’t beg anymore, so I have to beg when she is not looking.

: This is Rosie and she was fun to be around. There are so many girls and so little time.

: Roxie’s dad was trying to get all of us to sit. Mom was not having any luck at all. The white poodle was so pretty but mom didn’t get her name. Roxie had a good time here at the resort.

: Skittles is getting up in years but she still gets around. Keeping up with her daughter helps keep her young.

: This is Shadow. She is 14 years old and we shaired nap time. We both need our beauty sleep every day.

: Skippy and I went for a walk down the spring cut. We chased the fish and had a really good time. She is a little older than me but boy can she chase fish. I couldn’t keep up with her.

: Sassy was here with her mom Skittle and her picture is below. They were so cute and they look alike too.

: This is Sugar. I was playing hard to get. She is a really nice girl and fun to visit with.

: Taco got to ride on his mom’s walker. I wish my mom had one of those. It would have to be a bit bigger for me though.

: Tilly was such a sweet heart. She and Tobie played around the lodge while she was here

: Zabache wanted me to come down and play but I was too tired.

: This is Annie and she has the cutest ears. She looks a lot like Seamus. I said hello but she really likes her mom so I went back to my sofa.

: Budda Bear and I had a great time. He didn’t really like to go in the cold spring water but his mom made him any way. He liked it once he got in. I just stay in the cut. I am getting kind of old to swim in the spring.

: This is Casie and she loves swimming in the spring. Her mom and dad don’t mind the wet dog smell at all.

: This friend was a lot a fun to play with but mom forgot her name. I think her name is Lucy. Her mom and dad told my mom but she didn’t write it down. She thinks she can remember stuff like names. She barely remembers my name.

: Chica went out the door with my bone and that is ok too.

: Ruby and I like the same kind of bone. She chewed for a while and then I got to chew. I shair with my friends.

: Gypsy came to visit for several days and she was a lot of fun. She has a lot of energy and loves playing in the spring. She has a cool haircut too. I want mom to let me have one, I don’t want her to do it though. I heard from my brothers, ( Shannon and Chris) that she is not too good with the clippers.

: This is Chip. He had a great time playing in the water with all the other dogs.

: Cinnamon is up in years and has lost some teeth. She looks like she is angry but she is a little camera shy around the spring. She didn’t want her picture taken when she was all wet. Girls like to look their best in pictures. Us guys really don’t care how we look as long as we are comfortable.

: This is C.J. I forgot to ask what C.J. stood for. Maybe he is named after me! I would be so honored. He is a youngster but very friendly. I was kind of tired and C.J. wanted to play. I did go out later and hung out a while with him.

: Cocoa is from the Florida Trail Association. She is a working dog and can help her dad carry his water bottles. They go on lots of trips and explore Florida.

: Seamus is just a youngster and boy does she mind her mom and dad. We talked for a little bit and then she went out to play. I try to greet and meet as many friends as I can.

: This is Moke and his dad is a veterinarian but they still sneak me food. Mom keeps trying to get me to stick to my diet. Good Luck with that. Moke is very well behaved and so quiet that I didn’t even know he was here at first.

: Gidget is a sooooo cute. Killer wasn’t even afraid of her and he is afraid of all my friends. I don’t think Killer thought she was a dog.

: This is Goofy and he is the boy friend of Skittles. That is what her mom said anyway. Goofy liked the water and he had a good time playing around in it.

: This is Harley and she loves to swim in the spring. It is a great place to get wet and there is some dirt to role around in when you get you get out. Mom and Dad have a hose by the lodge to help get the mud off.

: Hooch and I had a great time playing together. He came to see me at the lodge several times and we have become great friends.

: This is Little Bitty and he sure was cute. I don’t think he really liked the water all that much but he did like being here walking around and smelling stuff.

I moved here with my family in December of 08. Killer, the cat, lives here with me along with the three chickens. I have a lot of friends that visit me here and I am going to have my mom take some pictures of me with them. We get to play in the spring and the river, ride the gulf cart, chase chickens when dad isn’t looking… Lots to do here. I also greet the people in the Lodge. Mostly I am on the sofa watching TV. Come on in and say hi. I’d love to meet you.

: This is Izzy and we swam in the spring and ran around and ran around and ran around and now I can barely move. She is a bit younger than me.

: Molly was here visiting and she sure is cute. She has been here before and I think she may like me. What do you think?

: This is Lollie Dog and she is very sweet. Her mom and dad took her to listen to the Band and she dances real good!

: Mom say’s that I have to get off if someone wants to sit on the sofa. I say that there is lots of room and I will share the sofa with you. Ok, I will move if I have to.

: This is Bear and he was getting ready to go for a boat ride. I was too tired from swimming to go with. I need my afternoon nap so I can play again after supper.

: Chrissy joined me on the sofa to watch TV. She likes the same shows that I do.

: This is Killer. His dad is in China so he is living with us. He helps people when they sign in. He is also very good with relocating Moms papers and stuff.

: Here are the girls. Dad says that Killer and I can’t chase them. But they fly really good and it is sooo much fun.

: I took Mandy for a walk around the playground. She is just a puppy and I didn’t want her to get lost.

: This is Eli. I was babysitting while his big brothers went fishing.

: Sable, she is mom and dad’s granddaughter from Minnesota, (makes her my niece) gets kind of mushy with me. It’s OK; I just get a little embarrassed.

: This is Mandy and LeChat, my french isn’t very good but I believe that stands for cat.

: Maci and I went for a swim in the spring right after this shot. She likes the water as much as I do.

: This is jewel. Isn’t she beautiful?
