Tales from The Trip

‘Hi, I’m Blue II and I’ll be Your Tour Guide’

It seems that in addition to “official mascot” I might need to add “tour guide” to my job description because I sure have been giving quite a few tours lately. Don’t tell the Butler University Office of Admission though because I kind of like just taking naps all day and with their tour schedule, my poor paws would be worn thin!

So why the tours, you ask? Well, for special occasions, of…

‘Bluetiful!’

As I continue to reflect on last weekend’s Butler University Bulldog Contest, I can’t help but think about just how cool it was to see 117 of us bullies in one place.

After all, we are a special breed that takes special care and attention.
Of course, I’ve been the recipient of a lot of love and I’ve had many a day in the sun, so it was cool to see the other bulldogs get a shot at glory. Not to…

Bulldog Beauty Contest Highlights Beautiful Butler Homecoming

Another homecoming weekend has come and gone at Butler University and if there could be one word to describe it all, “beautiful” certainly comes to mind.

Hot Diggity Dog, it’s the Wienermobile!

I first laid eyes on the Wienermobile in July when Hotdoggers, Dyl-icious Dylan and Ketchup Kylie rode into town to do some grocery store appearances and…

Known as ‘Lionheart’, Wheldon was a Bulldog

While I intend for this blog to be lighthearted and a source of joy for readers, well, life gets in the way sometimes. Today, Sunday, Oct. 16, 2011, is a prime example of how that can happen.

I woke up to eggs and pancakes atop my bowl of Holistic Select and then enjoyed chasing Pops around the yard on an unseasonably warm fall day. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better day. Pops strategically…

The Blogging Continues

Yes, this is a new blog. No, I am not new to blogging. In fact, I used to be quite the dog blogger (you can read those old posts here), but the advent of Twitter made 140-character updates seem so much easier. After all, I had a lot on my plate, or bowl, as a dog that was in attendance for back-to-back NCAA Men’s Basketball Final Fours and…
