      <description>My name is Floppy and I&apos;m a Beagle mix living in San Francisco. We think I was born on November 4, 2006 in Merced, CA. I was left in a shelter drop box and taken to Pets Unlimited in San Francisco where my new parents Mark and Mariell found me. I&apos;m blogging on this site, but they have also promised to post my pictures at Floppy&apos;s Photoblog.. </description>

         <title>Halloween in San Francisco</title>

M&M signed me up for another class at SF/SPCA so I'm back in school. Can you believe we had class on Halloween night! I had a hard time deciding between the devil outfit or my new zero the dog costume. Zero won and off to class we went. I was allowed to ride the car without my seatbelt because Mariell couldn't figure out how to put on the seatbelt with my zero costume on. I promised her to be good and sit still during the ride and she promised to drive slow. We got to class safe and a few of my friends had costumes on too. I like the 2 Jack Russell's costumes the best I think. </p>

Greg and Jessica looked like most of the people that M&M ave over at the house but Tucker Mojo were my hight. I was so excited to have a playmate at the house. Tucker kept on running away and I was chasing him to lick him. It was a lot of fun. Then Tucker put on his black spiderman costume and he turned into the evil spiderman. Tucker now was strong and I had so start running away to not get caught by his powers. Jessica, Greg and Tucker bought me a devil costume for Halloween and after I put that on I felt a little safer. Tucker and I had a great time together and I hope he will be back to play again soon.<br/>

         <title>My first Road Trip</title>

We started in the morning by packing up the car and headed north. It was a trip for Mark's birthday. We stopped at a park outside Rohnert Park and went on a walk. There were snakes and horses and tons of fun stuff. <img src="http://mvgals.net/albums/jenner-oct07/IMG_4107.thumb.jpg" width="150" height="113" hspace="8" align="right" />I didn't like that I had to stay on leash but I guess rules are rules. We had lunch at a yummy bbq place but all I got was a pigs ear that was gone in 30 seconds. M&M were feasting on steaks and chicken.&#160; We ended the trip at the city of Jenner and Jenner Inn where M&M had rented a huge house for us. </p>
                                                        <p align="left">While Mariell checked us in Mark took me down to the water for a photo shoot of me and the beautiful sunset. </p>

                                                        <p align="left">After that I was finally allowed to run around and check things out on my own. It was so<a href="http://mvgals.net/gallery/jenner-oct07/IMG_8634"><img src="http://mvgals.net/albums/jenner-oct07/IMG_8634.thumb.jpg" width="150" height="100" hspace="8" border="0" align="right" /></a> exciting! We ran into something wild on our night walk and all of us were shaking in our boots but Mark got us back into the house safe. We got a fire going in the fireplace before bedtime and I couldn't stop staring at the flames. They were really cool. The weather was pretty crappy when we woke up the next morning but M&M still took me on a walk to check out the waterfall next to the Inn. The it was time to head home and oh boy was it good to get back home again. <br />

         <title>Hanging out w/ Sanford &amp; Annette</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Mariell and Mark went to Vegas this past weekend.. I was wondering what they'd do with me.. but things worked out..

They boarded me w/ Sanford & Annette [<a href="http://www.tailsofthecitysf.com/Welcome.html" TARGET="_BLANK">Tails of the City</a>] - so many new dogs and places to discover.. I *loved* it there.. I guess I get to go there again when my parents go to the middle of the desert [<a href="http://www.burningman.com" target="_blank">Burning Man</a>] next month...]]></description>

It's got nooo respect.. I'm just sitting here minding my own business and it tries to run over my tail! But then I try and play with it and it just turns around and goes the other way.. How rude!

It's so weird.. I think it likes my hair.. I don't get it.. My hair doesn't taste that good (trust me, I've tried it..), but he keeps picking it up and eating it...]]></description>

         <title>Now that&apos;s a tug toy!</title>

I don't think she wanted to stay out either..

Mark took me with him to lunch today. We went to this place that had an outdoor seating area [<a href="http://www.thecrepehouse.com/" target="_blank">The Crepe House</a>] - but Mark took forever inside ordering and I got confused. The car door opened and I jumped in! Mark ended up running outside and reminding me that it wasn't his car that I jumped into.. Oops.. People around me were laughing at me....:(

Afterwards, we stopped by this really crowded pet store [<a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&view=text&q=pet+store&near=1601+pacific+ave,+San+Francisco,+CA&ie=UTF8&hl=en&latlng=37793306,-122420842,17321634284181366834&ei=KhiQRsSUK6KKrQKsw6jKDw&sig2=Mr3LF2-8j4KLiNdT1unHWg&cd=3" target="_blank">Animal Connectoin II</a>] - soo many scents! I had to be put on a 1ft leash..   I think I got a bunch of cool stuff though.. I even got to play with one of them at the park a bit later -

It's a rope? No, it's a tug toy! All I know is, the three of us were able to tug around the park with it... Maybe we'll try a 4-way next time!

         <title>Frisbee or Tug Toy?</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Canine-Hardware-Flying-Squirrel-Medium/dp/B00027467O/ref=pd_sim_k_1_img/102-8997441-6328914" target="_blank"><img src="http://floppy.mygooz.com/images/icons/chuckit_flying_squirrel.jpg"  width=113 height=113 border=0 align=left hspace=10></a>Mark saw me playing with this flying squirrel at Crissy Fields.. [<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Chuck-It-Squirrel/dp/B000G6OE0K/ref=sr_1_4/102-8997441-6328914?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1183847148&sr=1-4" target="_blank">Chuckit Flying Squirrel</a>], and was nice enough to get me my very own.. 

I can't figure out if I'm supposed to catch and retrieve this thing, or just tug with it.. Mark can throw it soo far! And it's really fun to chase and grab it..  I just love to grab it then tease another dog with it until they come and tug me for it..

I heard Mark grumbling about me ripping it though... He should have known better - We ripped the one at the beach the other day.. But it was soo much fun!

         <title>4th of July BBQ</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<a href="http://mvgals.net/gallery/floppy_misc/IMG_0524" target="_blank"><img src="http://mvgals.net/albums/floppy_misc/IMG_0524.thumb.jpg"  width=150 height=113 border=0 align=left hspace=10></a>We went to Frank's house for a small 4th of July get together. I got to run around on Frank's roof and play with everybody..

There were so many scents up there! What were those guys cooking?? I wanted some, but nobody would give me anything! Humph:(

I got into Sally's wine that was on the ground and got a little too tipsy! I was running around like crazy after that, so Mark had to put me back on a leash. At least I had a yummy treat to keep me busy!
<div align=center><img src="http://mvgals.net/albums/floppy_misc/IMG_0541.sized.jpg" width=450 height=600 border=0></div>

We went back to the house before dark. Fireworks are loud! I was so scared:( Mark had to take me out because I nearly peed myself.. I ran and took care of business, but couldn't wait to run back inside to safety! Whew, it's good to be back home..]]></description>
