Happy 2nd Birthday Buddha~Bear

On September 17th, Buddha celebrated his 2nd birthday. Over the past year and half, Buddha has touched so many people. Everyone wants their own Buddha. Recently when Buddha was out with us, a little girl with Down's Syndrome was gazing at him. Buddha walked over and let her kiss him on the head and hold his face. He is just an amazing dog. I love him more everyday.

On his birthday, he eat special treats and had a doggie ice cream (Frosty Paws). He even allowed me to put a birthday hat on him while we posed for pictures. Buddha has turned into an amazing young dog. I look forward to future years with my Buddha~Bear.

Buddha's 1st Professional Grooming

Aloha

Buddha has his 1st professional grooming Monday by our friend Karen. Karen is the best groomer using only gentle methods, and gently easing the dog over their worries. She has great patience. Buddha was bathed and conditioned in Italian Clay products, which smell AMAZING. The product line is Armonie Naturali http://www.alpenschatz.com/armoni.htm Then Karen gently thinned some of the very abundant under-coat to leave a much cooler and happier Buddha~Bear. Once the grooming was finished Buddha played with Jacob, Karen's GSD pup. They had so much fun that when Buddha was ready to leave and all leashed up, Jacob took control of the leash not wanting him to leave ;~)

Thank-you Karen for the amazing grooming. Buddha looks awesome, smells awesome and feels much better. Enjoy the photos.

Buddha's Friends & Family

Aloha everyone,

I have been very busy with med. school and work, so sorry for the long wait on a new post.

Buddha~Bear has been having a lot of fun with friends and family.  To me, there is no dog better than Buddha.  I am so grateful to have my Buddha~Bear.  I have another video of Buddha and his adventures.  Buddha hiking with his Dad & house-mate Romeo, his friend Cami a chow mix, his half-brother from Tina's Acer breeding named Ender, our cat Sinbad, and his newest house-mate an African Leopard Tortoise named Dharma (or that is the name for the moment, still trying to find a name that fits him).  Buddha really likes watching out for Dharma. And we also discovered a hummingbird with an egg in our front yard.  Hope you enjoy.

Buddha and I wish everyone WELLNESS.

Peace & namaste~

 

Micah came to sleep over

WOW, what an exciting night.  Micah came to sleep over.  Buddha and Micah played all day and night and again the next morning.  We think that they had a great time.  Watch the video an let us know what you think....

Happy Holidays

Wishing you all Happy Holidays.  

Buddha has been with us for 10 months now.  We have seen him change in so many ways.  He went from being afraid to go for walks to demanding them.  Dreading a car ride to enjoying his travels.  He truly is special.  Enjoy the video of his last 10 months with us, touching our hearts.

Buddha and I hike South Mountain (http://phoenix.gov/parks/hikesoth.html) which is just a short walking distance from our home.  What a great place to hike and enjoy nature.  I remember when I first became Buddha's mum, he did not like to walk at all, and now he is so excited when he knows we are going.  Buddha is growing into a fine young adult.  Enjoy the video.

Buddha & Romeo

Aloha

Buddha and Romeo often come to work with us at our training facility.  On this day we were in route to the office, in the Arizona rush hour traffic, and I turned around to see what the dogs were doing only to see this peaceful sight.  If only we could be in this state during traffic jams.....
