Happy Lovie Day!

Thanks to my furrends for all the great love day candy and prezzies and tokens and wishes!

For lovie day today all three of us doggies went with Daddy to pick up Mama from work! It was a surprise! I was scared, but when Mama and a furrend came out I poked my head out the window and got pets and smelled stuff! It was SOOOO exciting!

Once the car started again and I heard OTHER cars I got right back down in the floor board! It's THEEEE SAFEST PLACE! I'm like an expert on that!

When we got home I was soooo happy! I ran around and smiled real big! That was exciting!

Daddy thinks it's the first time the WHOLE family has been in the car since we moved here two years ago! BOLBOLBOL! Let's wait another two years for a car ride! I can do it!

I have an icky ear. But I hold real still while Mama cleans it out. And then Daddy has to hold me so they can put in the ear wash. YUCK! That stuff is WEIRD! But it gets the crud out! Yay!

What's that stinky smell?

Mama came home from work last night and said, "What's that stinky smell?"

Poor Mama and her inferior nose.

She said it smelled 'off'. She said it wasn't strong but it wasn't weak.

She looked for accidents all over the floors with a flashlight. She sniffed and sniffed and sniffed. She said it was hard because she was in a hospital all day long and it had big smelly stinkies.

I kept quiet. Though I knew. And Frank and Joey didn't give me away.

Mama was on the floor fluffing alpaca fiber. It was neat! I sniffed it. Then she sniffed my head. EEEEEWWWWWWWWW! My head smelled like POOP! Like POOP!!!

Then she crawled in my crate and sniffed my beds. She STILL couldn't find the source!

Poor Mama and her inferior nose.

She cleaned my head with dish soap and lotsa water. But it still stunk.

And we moved on.

Daddy came home this morning and he has a SUPERIOR NOSE! MY DADDY HAS A SUPERIOR NOSE! He found the stinky in my BIG BIG CRATE!

I was a little embarrased. I had to poop while I was crated furEVER. So I pooped. Then I felt bad and had to clean it up. But I didn't have paper towels or poopie bags. So I ate it. Then I felt sick. So I threw it up. Then I had to clean THAT..... and around and around.

Even if Mama's nose is inferior I still cleaned it up real good!!!! Good me! And Daddy's my favorite anyway, of course he has a SUPERIOR nose!

Today all my bedding was washed, my crate dismembered and pressure washed and remembered, and ALL THREE DOGS GOT BATHS!!! And Mama washed EVERY CENTIMETER OF MY FACE! Daddy said she could do it since he's my favorite.

Now I smell good and and my crate smells good and I am HAPPY!!!! I didn't like smelling like poopoo, but what else could I do? I'm a tidy boy!

Diary pick!!!

Oh my DOG I was a diary pick yesterday and I DIDNT EVEN KNOW IT!! I'm so ashamed! And happy! And confused!!!

Now that I think about it, I DID have an extra good day yesterday! I played a BUNCH in the yard with Frankie and Joey and Mommy! We got walks and bully sticks too!

Wow. It's like the stars aligned and we were celebratin' my diary pick day and we DIDN'T EVEN REALLY KNOW IT!!!

Does that mean we're a little psychic???? Only for good good stuff!!!

I think Joey was a little jealous too, because she laid in MY FAVORITE BED and wouldn't get out for a long time! I looked at her and I whined and I barked too!!! She said, " I'll always outrank you, Boo!" HOW RUDE!

But finally she got up and I HOPPED UP to my favorite spot! She may outrank me, but I'll out-patience her!!!!

Isn't life neat??? I am SOOPER THANKFUL for my family and my Dogster buddies!! What a great life I have fallen into, compared to my previous one! Ahhhhhh..... I'm really thankful for all these dog beds too! Bol Bol!!!

Can we eat turkey now????

I'm a big boy!

I'm a big boy now! Now that Uncle Seth moved out I can be home alone WITHOUT being crated! With Joey!! It's GREAT! Though I spend most of my time in my crate or on the bed! BOL!

I like being FREE. It makes me feel BIG and IMPORTANT. And SPECIAL! And RESPONSIBLE! I will take care of Joey! And she will take care of the house! And I will too!

And Frank will provide barking support for us from his crate! He's too fidgety and hazardous to be left not crated, Mama says.

In the meantime, I urped up all my dinner last night!

I don't really like chicken liver at all. SLIMY! GROSS!

Mama made some chicken liver BISCUITS in the OVEN. Is that why I urped up my dinner? Mama says the liver was PULVERIZED and COOKED! TOTALLY NOT SLIMY AT ALL!

There's only one way to find out, Mama. Treats, anyone???

Sympathy sick!

My beautiful favorite lovie Joey is sick!!! She doesn't read this, does she? She'd growl at me for calling her my lovie, but I cannot help it! She is so beautiful and powerful, I LOVE HER!!!!

Anybark, she's sick and I am sad. I think I'll go on a hunger strike for as long as she's sick! Or until I get rice and boiled chicken too, whichever comes first!

Mama doesn't know if I'm being sympathetic and lovie or if I've caught Joey's bug! Uh-oh!!! Pws crossed! Paws crossed!

Frank and Joey went on a big adventure last week and didn't take me. Too much terrain for a tripod, Mama said. Now Joey is sick. Is that like instant karma? Did I make her sick because I wanted to go too?

The least I can do is get sick too. We'll be sick together, Joey! THAT is TRUE LOVE!

Maybe then she'll realize my unending devotion to her. It's worth a try!!

CAMP!!!!!!

I've been to camp TWICE now.

They call it a variety of names.

Camp. Doggie daycare. Playtime with others. Socialization.

I have one word for it -

SCARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a little scardey cat at home & won't go for a walk unless my WHOLE family is involved, but I won't let a Frankfurter challenge me!

But CAMP??? Really???

Am I getting another leg cut off???? OH DOGGGGG!!!! Am I NEVER gonna see my mama and daddy again???

I don't play with the other dogs yet because I'm SO SCARED, but the hoomans say I'm SWEET!!!

Maybe one day soon.

Mama & Pops are 'prepping' me for boarding they say. Soon!

At least they keep coming back for me!!!!

I went to the DOGTOR!

I went to the DOGTOR and it was SCARY! Joey went with me because when I'm with her I'm BRAVER!!! The car ride was SCARY SCARY! All the NOISE and BIG SOUNDS! I made myself VERY VERY SMALL in the front floor in front of Mommy and she pet me! When we got to the dogtor it smelled of all new smells! Daddy put me WAY UP HIGH and a lady felt me all over and looked at me too!

Then she PINCHED my leg! OWIE! I buried my head in Mama's armpit. Then she PINCHED my shoulder THREE TIMES! OWIE!

Joey was a little jealous so Mama gave her a fake exam! She hid her head in Mama's armpit too! BOL!

Mama says we're like twins because SHE got pinches yesterday, she says her flu shot! So we'll be a little sore together! Thanks Mama!

I stayed hidden for the ride home, but when we got home my EYES and my MOUTH got REAL BIG and I was ready to RUN RUN RUN around the house and yard! WEEEEEEEEE! That was exciting and stuff!

I don't like leaving the house much!

A TEENY bit of water!

Only for a second! Only for a second did we get to SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH in the kiddie pool! It has been FUREVER!!!

There was CONSTRUCTION going on in our back yard and it was neat to smell new things and turned up new dirt evfurry day!! Now instead of a big scary POOL, we have a BIG DIRT DIRT YARD!!!

Daddy filled up the kiddie pool for us - we went SPLISH SPLASH! SPLISH SPLASH!! Then we jumped out and mixed with dirt! That made MUD!!!

THEN we RAN into the house and jumped on the BED!!! YAY! MUD AND BED! MUD AND BED! It's a happy combination!

Then Daddy pulled out the sump pump and drained my kiddie pool. What gives???

We're going to have to find some other fun to have!

Rodents are for TERRIERS!

We have some MICE outside! In the back yard! We have some brush piles and the mice think they're NEAT! And I think the MICE are NEAT!

Mama feeds birdies. She says she's not sure WHAT to do. Stop feeding birdies for two weeks? What eats mice???

The area is TOO LITTLE for owls or hawks. They like to SWOOP I think.

Mama is thinkin' about putting a WILD SNAKE under the house!!! That'll do it! I'm not sure how I feel about that. Then what will be so interesting to sniff outside? Slithery snake? I don't think so!!

Snakies eat birdies too, I think, so I'm going to try to either scare Mama from snakes OR try to look like one myself... I need to get those mices! PROVE that I am a TERRIER! MADE for this job!!!

Changes for the better!

I think it would be GREAT and FUN to have MICE and various rodents and vermin INSIDE THE HOUSE!!!

THEN when we have to come INSIDE I can still have FUN and HUNT!

It's SO FUN sniffing those things out! And listening for their TEENY TINY NOISES!

I thought it was a great idea. So I brought one in last night! It went SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK!

Mama and Daddy were a little alarmed. They looked and looked and looked and looked, but no squeaky live thing was found! I put it in the room with SO MANY dog toys! They'll never find my new pet!

BOL BOL BOL BOL!! I can't wait for it to STIR and I can hunt inside! For now, though, I'll keep hunting around the woodpile outside. Maybe my pet needs a friend...

That was a great idea!!!
