Here's mom holding Yoshi as a puppy. He seems to need a lot of holding and comforting. Little dogs are like that, you know. We bigger dogs are tough and independent. Just as long as we get our walks, treats, get to play ball a few times a day, jump on our owners lap, follow them everywhere they go... oh, who am I trying to fool?

We have a lot of fun playing together, despite our size differences.

He gets tired out pretty fast, though and needs to sleep a lot.

*YAWN* I guess I could use some rest too!

Yoshi is growing into quite a respectable little doggie. I'm a little envious of his hair. He has a different hairstyle just about everyday. I pretty much always look the same.

See what I mean, he looks totally different. This is his miniature sheepdog look.

Here we have the windblown look.

He's guarding mom's flowers. Wouldn't you be scared off?

Here he is after a trip to the groomer.

Looking good, Yosh!

Here he is, posing with another one of his footballs.

Here is Yosh the way he looked a year ago! What a shrimp! HA HA!
