Allow Myself to Introduce... Myself

Well, I guess since this is my first post, I should probably just start with a little bit about myself.

The name's Pixel.

That's me. Right there. Up there. You know what I mean. The black and tan guy who's picture you would have to have looked right past to get to this paragraph here.

Anyway...

I live with my pack. This is Alpha:

Alpha hangs out with me most of the day, though 'hanging out' is more like 'napping on the couch'. Which is cool, since I nap all day too. We go for walks sometimes, and every once in a while, we walk to the best place in the world. He'll play Tug and Chase the Thing (I'm still trying to teach him that one properly), but he really doesn't like playing Noms.

This is Beta. Beta's funner than Alpha. She takes me on long walks, and plays Tug and Chase the Thing and Noms. She's usually out all day hunting, which is kind of a bummer, but she makes sure I get breakfast and dinner every day. And treats. And scritches. I guess Alpha gives me scritches too, now I think about it. Beta does a lot of Homework with me too, which is great, because when I do good, I get treats. Nummy, nummy treats.

Enough about Pack, now back to me.

I was born in February 2014, which makes me 10 months old. Alpha and Beta brought me home after they saw my picture on the Internets.

The Internets apparently refers to dogs like me as 'Chigi's: my mum was a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, and my dad was a Chihuahua. Beta doesn't call me a Chigi, though: I don't think she likes it. She calls me Pixel. Or sometimes, 'My Little Mutt'. I've got my dad's fur, and my mum's personality; that's what Beta says.

My day's are usually pretty full; normally I wake up with Beta. She lets me out of my crate, and I get a tummy scritch. Then we do a little bit of Homework, and she lets me have breakfast. After breakfast, I go out on the balcony for a little bit, to check out what's changed overnight. Then back in for a short nap on the couch. Sometimes, there's some more Homework, sometimes more scritches. Then Beta goes out hunting, and I get my morning nap on the couch. Once Alpha wakes up, some more scritches, then more napping. There is usually a walk in the afternoon. Then more napping until Beta gets home! Another walk, or sometimes we go to the best place in the world (we don't go as much now that it's colder... or darker... or snowerier... I'm not sure why...). Then, Beta gives me dinner and we usually do more Homework. After Homework, we'll sometimes play Tug, or Chase the Thing, or Noms. Then, an evening nap on the couch until it's time for bed.

My crate's actually pretty comfy (that's where I sleep at night). It doesn't smell as good as blankets or towels or socks, but it's cozy. Alpha usually doesn't even close the door all the way at night, 'cause I stay in there until Beta wakes up in the morning.

I'm pretty smart; well, Beta tells me I'm really smart, so it must be true. Beta keeps saying that she wants to do Agility or Treibball with me. I don't know what Agility is (teacher-lady says we are not allowed until I'm 11 months old), but Beta brought me a big ball to start Treibball with. So far, it's not very interesting (just pushing a ball back and forth across the room), but hey; there's treats.

Beta brings me to the second best place in the world a lot too. Lately she's been bringing me to the toys and telling me to 'pick something out for Christmas'. There's nothing really interesting that I haven't already got though; not in the toys that I can reach anyway. On second thought, I could go for some rawhide. Can never have too much rawhide.

Hmm... maybe I will write more later. I can't actually type, so Beta's doing it for me; and she says it's time for bed.
