Anonymous

Other pups have been receiving Anonymous gifts. From somepup who is very giggly.

Now it is my turn to receive an anonymous heart gift. Inside it reads:
Wags and licks to my favfurite labby guy pup!

Using my shrewd deductive reasoning skills, I don't think this is the same Anonymous sending gifts to the other pups. I noted the lack of giggling in my gift.

I don't know who sent my gift, but Thank You! whoever you are!

I am Dog of the Day

Wow! This is very cool!
I am honored to be chosen as the Dog of the Day.
I know, it is random but still.

Thank you pups for all the gifts and nice messages you've sent!

Please don't tell Zoe about any of this. She is still a cone head and not a happy camper.

Zoom time

Am I already getting cabin fever? It did snow around here. And I do like to be inside, watching the new little kitty.
But just now, we were all outside. Mom was scooping poop, getting the garage cats and chickens tucked in.
I got the zoomies. Around the yard I ran. Making Tux tracks in the snow.
Mom told me "run, Tux, run!" and I did! A few times around the yard, in and out between the shrubs. Fun!
I gotta calm down now and go stare at the kitty now.

Some dog

The grandma lady likes me. She says I am some dog.
She gives real good neck scritches. She has real gentle hands.
I like to sit next to her chair.
She will always pet me.

Oh yeah, and I have a new obsession.
We have a new little kitty cat.
I love her. I could sit and stare at her for hours. In fact, that's exactly what I do. She will snooze on the love seat and I look her.
She is beautiful and wonderful.

A Diary Pick and Grandma

Wow! A Diary Pick for me again! It's a good thing Zoe has a Diary Pick too today. She would be mad at me. Bol!

Ok, so Dad's mom is here. I really barked good at her when she first got here. And I kept barking at her for the first day. I mean, she was a stranger. Strangers need to be barked at and checked out.
But, I gave her the A-OK. She talks real soft. She scratches my chin and neck. And she moves real slow and sits alot. She's not scary now.

Mom is keeping kind of busy so I will bark my thanks for the rosettes and nice comments about being a Diary Pick.

Thanks Pals!

More cat food!

I got to clean out the cat food dish in the garage today!
As Zoe says, lemme tell you about it.

Mom went away this morning. When she got back, she had some bags in her hands. We went outside to potty. Mom didn't come right back outside.
I discovered the gate was open. I think Mom didn't get it latched good and the wind blew it open. I took advantage of the situation and went into the garage. There was quite a bit of food in the dish out there! Yummy!
Then I heard Mom calling me. As I was heading out, here came Zoe! Sorry Zoe, I ate just about all of the cat food.
Mom looked kinda concerned when she saw me coming out of the garage. She said she wasn't real sure where I was. Then she looked happy. I guess she would rather have me eat garage cat food than go wandering the neighborhood.
Anytime Mom!

I blew my chance at Chuck-It

Mom took the Schnauzers to be groomed. I stayed at home with Dad.
When Mom got home, we both went outside. She grabbed the Chuck-It and lobbed it once in the yard. But when the Schnauzers are gone, we go out into our small acreage to play. That way, no one barks at us and out there only the cats bother us.
So we headed out the gate! I went into the garage to grab several mouthfuls of cat food. I kept grabbing mouthfuls while Mom called to me first to "come" then to "leave it". Finally, I did come.
We went back in the yard without playing Chuck-It.

Mom told me I blew it.

Oops.

I am acting weird

What is up with me today? Mom noticed right away. I am "off". I am holding my tail down, not tucked, just down. I am clinging to her. Actually, I am trying to be a part of her. When she was folding some laundry, I was between her legs.
She is watching me, talking to me. Trying to comfort me.
Am I sick? I am panting some. Or am I scared? There is a big tractor rig working across the road. Maybe the noise is bothering me.
Right now as I dictate this entry, I am relaxing next to Mom's chair.
If we get things figured out, I will let you know. Or when I get better, I will let you know.
I need a chill pill. I need to relax.
Gonna try that now.

That was easy

Just got my toenails trimmed. Easy peasy.
Zoe and I had been outside, running and barking at the jogger neighbor and his five dogs. It is wet in the grass so that must have softened up my nails. And I am still panting from all the running I did.
Zoe and I came in but Mom had me turn around and go back outside with her. And the toe nails trimmers.
Got the job done. No muss. No fuss. And we All got cookies when I came back inside.

Uh, sorry Zoe...

But this is My day in the spotlight. Mom had the day marked on her calendar and then Dogster seems to be working better and notified us that it is my birthday. Well, that is a made up day. Mom went in a tweaked my page to show this as my Gotcha Day. Yep, I've been here 3 years. So that makes me about 5 or so.
Wow, and look at the great picture Redford and crew had put inside my ice cream rosette. And sweet little Whitley sent some watermelon with a bunch of little happy face guys inside. And Really big dogs Abby and Lucian sent me a beach ball. Tessa and Fitzcairn sent my a nice juicy steak.
Thanks all of you pups!
I wonder if Mom will make me some homemade Frosty Paws? Doo posted a recipe for some. I think I will be extra sweet and ask Mom to make some.

This is already shaping up to be a furtastic day!
