Mom, miss you...

Mom got a phone call from grandma on Tuesday. Next thing I know mom is packed and leaving in a hurry. Turns out grandma had a medical emergency, but is fine now. Mom was gone for the night. Dad was off from work and took good care of me and Darcy. We played for a long time and then I slept with dad.

Mom came home last night and I literally jumped up to kiss her! I missed her so much!

Now today, Darcy is acting weird and I'm attached to mom's hip! Mom and dad went to work and now this huge storm came in. Wish mom and dad were here, they're at work :( They'll be home soon enough and everything will be fine!

Made it home :):)

Mom came and got us from the kennel this morning. It's good to be home. Only thing is one of our dog friends across the hall got kennel cough. I just got my vaccine in June so mom is hopeful that me and Darcy will be alright. Time will tell.

Mom got me a new elk antler, it's split in half and yummy!! I love coming home after the kennel, I always get something new! :):)

Wooohoo Diary Pick of the Day!

Mom checked in this morning and Wooohooo I'm Diary Pick of the Day! Too bad I'm not here to celebrate! I'm at the kennel for my week of playtime! Mom was out of town so dad took me and Darcy to the kennel. Dad said we drug him full force into the kennel. He couldn't believe it! So we're off having a good time. Today is much cooler than it has been which is great! We're having a great time! Mom's picking us up tomorrow morning.

Thanks for the Diary Pick of the Day!:):)

We went for a walk today....

And there was no bear! Yippeee!! I saw the mini-horses, the babies were kicking up their heels! Saw one for the barn cats, got overly focused and mom walked in front of me and got me moving again. We went to the playground but me and Darcy just didn't feel like being out there too long. So mom took us into the house. Mom got up at 6 am (we went to bed at 1am) and I was still tired. So mom did some laundry and then vacuumed the house. After we ate mom got tired and snuggled with me and took a nap. Now she's at work and I'm snoozing with dad.

No walks today.... :(

Mom took us out to the playground for over an hour this morning. We wanted to go for a walk, but mom said no way. She said not until I know the bear is gone. That may take another day or two! Luckily we'll be a pup-care from Monday thru Friday! :):) Yippeee!!!!

RIP Lennox

In Belfast Ireland there was an American Bulldog/Lab cross named Lennox. The city counsel said that he was a pitbull-type dog and confiscated him when his owner was out. They "hid" him and declared him dangerous. Lennox had no history of ever biting or being vicious. He was neutered, licensed, chipped and muzzled when being walked outside of his home. His home has more than ample iron and concrete fencing and was very loving of Lennox and his 2 dog siblings. A DNA test was performed to prove that he had no "pit-type" genes. But all this and over a million signatures, protests, famous trainers, politicians could not help Lennox. Today we receive word that the counsel did indeed execute Lennox. Humans are so stupid some times, why? I'll never understand....

Way behind...

So mom has been slacking and needs to get my diary caught up.

We're not going to discuss the weather. It's hot, everyone know it so why dwell upon it!? We we say that we're thinking of everyone without power and those fighting and involved in the fires out west.

Mom went away for a long weekend. She went to grandma and grandpa's house. She said she had "chores" to do. Turns out her chores were cleaning all of the outside windows in the hot weather amongst other things. She got everything done and made it home safe and sound! Me and Darcy were so glad to see her! Darcy was boxing mom's legs! Hahaha!

Mom wanted to use the dremel on me, she said my nails were way overdue. I layed on the bed while she waited for dad. Dad took to long for mom, she turned on the dremel and did 1 whole foot by herself! :) Then dad came in and I was still laying on the bed. Mom said just sit with him and pet him. I let her do all of my nails! She was thrilled! Darcy got my treats as I wasn't even interested in them. I was more interested in the hugs I got when mom was finished! :)

Today we went out to the back yard. To get there you go out the doggie door and turn right. Step down and go through the hallway between the garage and the house. Well mom saw a snake and freaked! I ran over to her and then Darcy ran out. By the time mom got a shovel all she saw was the snakes tail going into the wall of the house! :0 So needless to say, she's freaked!

Dad is working midnight to 8 am for 2 weeks and mom told him that they're ripping out that old wall, insulating it and putting up plywood. Like it should be!

As mom left for work, dad was going to bed. She said that if me or Darcy came in crying to check us for a snake bite and get us to the vet immediately! What???? I don't want a snake bite! So mom's hoping I avoid the snake...

A Mini-Me!!

Mom got a box in the mail today. In it was this little dog doll. One looked like me, the other looked like Darcy! I started to cry and cry!! Mom took some pictures of us sniffing our mini-twins!

When mom was leaving for work I was laying on the bed staring at the dolls! They are on a high shelf in the bedroom next to Turner's urn. I'm singing to them hoping they will want to play!

Sorry mom... :(

Mom took us for our usual walk. On the way back I spied something (I thought) in the waist high weeds. I did the high-flying leap into the tall weeds and didn't realize that mom wasn't paying attention. I spun her and she yelled OOOWWW!! She couldn't catch her breath, I tried to jump again and she yanked me back and told me leave it. I didn't understand at first, then I stood real still while mom caught her breath. She limped back to the house and I walked real slow. Mom said I jumped and she twisted her leg and pinched her sciatic nerve. I don't know what that means, but I do know that mom's hurting and I'm sorry :(

Rabbits everywhere!

And I want one! Bad!! I see them on our walks and they jump into the high grass. I see the grass moving, but mom won't let me goin after them! Ugggh!!! I want to chase a rabbit!!!
