Even though Turbo is a bit frustrated because the new yard is not ready yet he's really happy we found a nice open space near our home were he can run about...now if he only had some sheep to herd!

Amigo

He's not just my puppy anymore, he's become my friend...

We Walk

2010-04-19T15:06:00.000-07:00

These four photos were taken during our walk with Turbo yesterday afternoon.
It's amazing how the light can change color during a one-hour span.

Studio mate

2010-04-09T16:38:00.000-07:00

One Turbo's favorite pastimes in the studio is looking at the birds, dogs, people,
and cars go by in the street :) He gets specially excited with bikes.

Our happy boy's big old rubbery black nose.

He always cracks us up when he closes his mouth and bites his upper lip.

On my lap being cute!
Turbo is now 11 months old! He just finished his basic obedience training and graduated with flying colors. Our puppy is super smart.
He's also doing agility training on the weekends
and is overall the most adorable puppy ever.

Going Up!

I *love* my puppy.

My twelve year old son Daniel has been shooting some film
with an old Konica Autoreflex TC that my dad gave me when I was fourteen.
I love how he truly captured Turbo's sweetness in these photos.

Football

2010-01-25T17:52:00.000-08:00

Turbo really, REALLY likes to play football :)

This is his "play with me pleeeeeeeez" face.

How in the world can you say no to that face???

His favorite

2010-01-23T09:40:00.000-08:00

There's nothing he loves more in the whole wide world than going for long walks.

I specially like to walk during sunset or sunrise when the light is golden.

My ridiculously handsome dog

2010-01-12T10:37:00.000-08:00

Eight months old now.
Makes us laugh countless times a day with his sweet/goofy antics.

Merry Christmas!

Mr. T wants to wish y'all a Merry Christmas a very, very happy new year!

My Friend

He has been helping me pack boxes by being cute and making me smile a lot :)
Isn't he lovely? We are moving this weekend...wish me luck!

Oh Turbo, you're so beautiful...

Here's my puppy getting his beauty sleep...

You can tell it's working already...he's getting cuter each day :)

Taking it all in

2009-09-18T20:36:00.000-07:00

The absolute highlight of Turbo's day (mine too!) is his long afternoon walk.

Here we are contemplating the beautiful view captured on the photo below:

He knows how to enjoy the simple pleasures of life.

The furry one

2009-09-17T16:02:00.000-07:00

This is his "May I come in please?" face. Who can say no to that?

On his super ugly but incredibly comfy doggy bed as I write this post.
That is the life!

Turbo is going on his very first road trip today.
We're going on a short three hour drive
to San Miguel de Allende for a couple of days.

He's meeting his adorable pals Buddy & Ginger :)

He's a keeper :)

Parque Polanco

2009-09-02T15:21:00.000-07:00

On Sunday we took our ever growing puppy for a walk at a really nice park in Polanco, Mexico City. We want him to be a very well socialized puppy :) He made lots of new friends & even met Chuleta (Pork Chop), a beautiful little pet pig on a leash! I was shocked to see a pig on a leash that I didn't even take out my camera, arggg! I hope see her next time we go to the park to snap a photo to show you.

Studio Assistant

My very sweet and funny studio mate
on his favorite spot under my desk.

His favorite toy right now is this rope "bone"
I got him last week. Look at how he's grown!!!

Walk with me

2009-08-19T18:14:00.000-07:00

I had totally forgotten how wonderful it is
to have a furry companion to walk with.

Bubbles!

2009-08-17T19:25:00.001-07:00

Fun at the Park

2009-08-17T09:38:00.001-07:00

We took Turbo on his first field trip yesterday!
We went to the Parque de Chapultepec
in Mexico City. This park is a bigger
than New York's Central Park
covering almost 1000 acres.
There's a section with a really beautiful lake.
It was quite the experience for little Turbo
seeing little kids with balloons,
bikes, skates, ice cream vendors,
a lots and lots of new doggy friends!

Manolo and the boys rented a rowing boat
while Turbo and I sat on a bench in the shade
doing some people/dog watching.

I worked with Turbo on some of his tricks
while waiting for Manolo and the boys.
I want him to be able to concentrate on me
even when there is so much going on around him.

He was a total star at the park!
Most people commented on how cute he is
and he gave his paw happily
to countless little boys and girls.
It was a really fun experience :)

Killing me...

2009-08-12T11:51:00.000-07:00

Seriously...
this little guy is killing me softly
with unbearable cuteness and
the most wonderful disposition.
My niece (Turbo's very own paparazzi)
took this beautiful photo of him in our kitchen.

Turbo's first walk on a leash

2009-08-11T09:55:00.000-07:00

Turbo had his first walk on a leash

around our lovely neighborhood.

He was a very good puppy.

He made a new friend, her name is Camilla.

She's seven years old and new in the hood.
