My struggle is REAL 😢… Can’t mom see that I am MUCH better looking and MUCH more entertaining than her laptop??? I cannot believe I have to SHARE her lap! I try to tell her, and sometimes she just looks at me and laughs at my barks, while other times she flat out ignores me – especially if she is talking to her boss or colleagues. Today, I even tried to sit right on top of her laptop while she was typing. That didn’t work out very well… Mom put me (and all of the toys that I brought with me onto the sofa) on the floor… Yep… Every. Single. One. I. Own… AND, I have A LOT of toys. I am sooooooo OVER her work thing! Hi, my name is HUDSON BLUE, and I am an affection junkie!

My mom took me to Lake Merritt today. Talk about exciting! I was able to run, Run, RUN, and RUN SOME MORE! It felt so good to really stretch my legs. I even raced my mom a few times. She did an ok job of keeping up 😏… She wasn’t able to navigate the people relaxing in the grass as well as me. I tried my best to drag her right through the middle of their blankets… I know they didn’t mean to forget MY invite to their picnic…

I LOVED showing my mom that I could sit and stay on command – that is until I discovered girls – the two-legged variety. Did you know if you sit pretty for a hot second and then mesmerize them with your eyes, they will hug and kiss all over you??? I loved them so much that I passed up the opportunity to play with other pups – including my cousin, Baby, born 1 month before me at @colorcountryaussies. Truth be told, of all the ladies I met yesterday, @_helenade_ and @earthy.eva were my FAVS 😘.

Guess what??? I have a name… I overheard my mom tell the vet that my name is HUDSON BLUE CASHEL WALLACE. Cashel after someone she called The Dude (aka dad), who apparently was a pretty cool cat. I was confused at first because I am a dog not a cat. But after overhearing my mom talk about all of The Dude’s admirable qualities, it all makes sense. GULP… I have some pretty big shoes to fill…

I had my 1st play date, and it was SO MUCH FUN! Although I am much younger than Tipsy, I showed him (and my mom) that I can wrestle with the best of them 😏. I also had my 1st mini adventure exploring the neighborhood in the rain. Lots of smells, sights, and sounds to take in. SO EXCITING! Leaves blowing in the wind are pretty darn cool! Can I just tell you how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE OUTDOORS…

I have listened to 2 full days of healthcare tech conference calls… BORING! Yesterday, I found my voice and put my two cents in a few times, trying to tell mom and her colleagues that I am way more interesting but I just got ignored, so I cried. I see my mom try to hide her smirk and look of adoration when I point my nose toward the sky and howl 😏. Wrapping my mom around my paw is a bit tougher than I thought… Although she does allow me to climb up in her lap to take my naps, which I do quite often. It’s all about the snuggle! If only I didn’t have to share with her laptop… Hi, my name is HUDSON, and I am an affection junkie!
