Finally, I'm back on the keyboard! Boy, between Pat and Dave, lately I just can't seem to get any time on the computer. I'll try to get this out before they find out I'm on this thing.
They took me to that place again. You know the one with all these strange new people picking me up and putting me in this cage. I was a little tougher this time. I was in a quieter place and some of the people came by and said hi to me. When Dave came for me we had lots of fun in this place where Dave took my leash off and let me run around. Now that was really fun!
I've had another shot in my behind! I hope they're not bringing me to this Vet guy and girl to just stick a sharp thing in my butt! I didn't feel too good for a day or so but I guess its part of growing up.
On top of that, I was told I was five ounces overweight! What? I know Pat gives me healthy food and some really good treats.... wait a minute, come to think of it, I haven't had that many treats lately. Boy, they're good! Gee, they sure know how to trick me.
Speaking of growing up, I'm going to be one pretty soon! I wonder what I'll get for my first birthday. Maybe something from the table! Or something they call a "doggie-bag!" I'm not counting on it... they are doggie-health-nuts!
Anyway, I notice it's getting hotter down here. I still like the long walks Dave takes me on but boy I need a rest when I get back in the house. He takes my water bottle when we go and that helps but I must take twenty steps to his two! I'm not complaining. He uses this leash that lets me walk ahead and really search out lots of stuff. I've never seen so many new things. Crazy bugs, funny (and fast) lizards, birds of all kinds and these things called, "Squirrels." Hey, I'm bigger than they are but I'm pretty sure I can catch one... that is if Dave ever let's my leash go out when I dart after them. Man, can they climb trees! I recently chased one up the tree and that wise guy hung up-side-down and tried to stare me down!
Below, you can see how I chased him up the tree. I know you can't see him that well so I asked Dave to put this little picture in so you can see how he mocked me!
I was more than a little mortified but I'll get over it!
Hold it, something just moved... and the chase is on!
Darn, another one got away thanks to Dave and this darn leash!
Ya, I'm talking to you Dave!
Take my backside for that!
Well, last night I tempted fate. I take advantage of Dave and Pat when they are on the computer. Lately, I've taken to going to my bed while they are busy at the keyboard. They leave me alone and totally loose track of me. Well, last night I made my move. Dave hit the keyboard and I go into stealth mode.
This time I go under their big bed and took along "Ziggy." "Ziggy" is my newest toy and boy did I do a number on him!
I think it took me all of five or so minutes to rip that sucker apart!
Suddenly, Dave called to me. Uh oh! He got up and began looking for me. Couch...nope, my pen... nope, my bed... nope. He begins to call me louder. My mistake was a give away, I crawled out from under the bed. His curiosity got the better of him and he wondered what I was up to. I'm not sure if it was some of "Ziggy's" stuffing stuck to my mouth but he hit the floor and looked under the bed.
He reached in and pulled out some of "Ziggy!" Quickly, I did what any red-blooded household pet would do... I looked for another dog in the house!
For some reason, he didn't believe me. He said a whole bunch of stuff to me and I thought it best if I just let him have his say! I knew they just can't stay mad at me for too long.
Then he began to dig out the rest of "Ziggy" from under the bed and I thought it would be a good idea to help him.
Actually, I felt kinda bad for poor "Ziggy."
He was a good friend. I just couldn't help myself. He was just a little too easy to tear apart.
I'd like to tell you that Pat scolded me and sent me to my pen but she was
just showing Darlene how I go into my pen when they go out.
But to be honest, I really do miss "Ziggy!"
