Hi guys!

Crazy!

I had a bath last night, and for some reason this made me totally wired! After my baths, I love to sit out on the patio and dry off in the nice, summer sun but it was already dark out! So what did I do? I ran like crazy around the house, up on the table, on the couch, over my owners who were watching TV -- I ran like crazy! ...then I passed out, fast asleep, on the rocking chair.

FLEAS.

Oh, please tell me it's not true! I have FLEAS. And, oh boy, are they driving me nuts. I can't stop itching and scratching. My family washed all of my things and gave me medicine to make me better. It didn't work. My family also gave me a great, big bone to make me feel better. That actually worked more! But, once I got done chewing, I remembered my pesky little fleas.

Hot Fun In The Summertime!

So, picture this: Ninety-eight degrees out in good old South Florida; the weather is humid and my tongue is hanging out of the side of my mouth while I down a ton of water from my dish. Now, I normally am not too big on the water but I tried it again the other day and realized it kept me feeling cool despite the horrible heatwave that summer brought! My owners were all splish-splashing around in the pool and I deeply considered joining them. I rolled my Kong around the patio floor, trying to make up my mind about jumping in or staying dry. I eventually sucked it up and came in via the steps in the shallow end. My owners were laughing at me because I'm like a cat when it comes to water! One of my owner-sisters, Lindsay, picked me up and carried me into the middle of the pool. It was so relaxing! I paddled all the way back to the steps, and then back to where my owners were again! Summer really isn't that bad! Infact, I'm sort of having fun!
