Well! Hudson told me I'd like it here at Channel 7 but I had no idea just how dog-friendly (or is it dog-crazy?) people here are. Man, I can hardly get my morning and afternoon naps taken in between visitors and requests for me to attend meetings. You know, I don't kiss and tell, but if I had a Milk Bone for every smooch, I'd be one fat puppy.

So, a little background. I am a CCI puppy, one of 11 in my litter. All the pups in a litter have names with the same first letter, so we're a P litter. My siblings are Patrina, Penela, Piute, Pixel, Peggy, Paisley, Pasha, Pippi, Pilot, and Palmer. Boy, did we ever have fun! Our Breeder Caretaker (BC) was sad to see us go, but she knew it was time for us to go to our puppy raisers.

My Mom is Carie, and she is half Labrador, half Golden Retriever. She has the prettiest black fur! Her BC was also her puppy raiser, so she was raised near CCI headquarters in Santa Rosa, Calif. Strangely, she wasn't very sad to see us leave. I guess 11 puppies is a lot of work.

My Dad is Neese, and he's full Lab. I look a lot like him, I'm told. He was raised by some puppy raisers here in Denver, so I'm sure I'll hear all kinds of cool stories about him. I've heard one rumor about him being kind of a "wild child" as a puppy, but I'm sure that can't be right.

It's time for my (YAWN) afternoon nap. Chow for now!
