Jon Jon is one busy dog!

We'll I haven't been blogging in awhile because life has been so busy! Since my last update, I traveled to Michigan last summer and went to the beach for the 1st time - I was a little scared at first, but loved romping around in the sand. I'm still trying to get used to swimming.

Here a photo of me on the beach in Saugatuck, MI.

2011 ended with lots of holiday fun. I went to Purina Farms and ran the obstacle course, visited with Santa, and played with the other dogs.

I wanted to make sure Santa knew what I wanted for Christmas, so I also visited him at St. Louis Galleria - just to reinforce my wishes. Here's a photo of me with the big guy.

One of my New Year's resolutions is to help people that are in the hospital by becoming a therapy dog. In January I finished my second obedience class with St. Louis' Support Dogs, Inc. As long as I get treats, I'll do anything people want me to do, so I had no problem passing the class! I've applied to go through the certification training for the pet therapy program later this spring.

After finishing training, I needed some fun to get through the winter. Jon Jon goes all out for every holiday! Check out these photos of me at St. Louis' Mardi Gras and St. Patrick's Day.

Jon Jon dressed as a crawfish at McGurk's in Soulard.

I was looking for an Irish lass in Forest Park - but all I found was this pot of gold and shamrocks!

Spring is here, so check back soon for more of my adventures!
