My dear friends, the last six months have been a very confusing time in my life. One day I am romping with my pals in upstate NY and the next day I am in Pennsylvania. Living in an apartment and not my house.

Mom was very cryptic about the move, she said she “had a new job”.

What they hey? Her answer just didn’t seem logical. She went to work every day. She came home, fed us and played with us just like in NY. It didn’t add up. Something was awry. Something was fishy. All was not right in Denmark. Well…. You get the picture…

It could be only one thing: We were in the Witness Protection Program.

Don’t “Oh Tucker me!”

Just because we weren’t living under assumed names (Mom was still “Mom”, Lulu was still “Lulu”, and I was still “Tucker”), it could have been witness protection.

But alas, I realize that Mom has simply been rehomed. And Lulu and me too.

After months of living in an apartment with no yard, being walked “on leash”, and having to be quiet all the time, Mom has finally taken us to a new house!

Woohoo! Mom can sit in the living room, throw the ball thru the kitchen and into the dining room. Sometimes it bounces and I have to run down the hallway too.

And I can bark again! Well, probably Mom would tell you that I never really gave it up but she is prone to exaggeration anyway….

My new house has a big yard. With trees. No lake but there is a cool creek that we can swim in.

And what is really great is my buddy Sammy lives up the road from us. While we were in transition, Sammy was kind enough to let Lulu and me stay with him and his Mom. We got lots of food and had a blast.

Today I am interviewing a new dog walker. While living in the apartment we had a really nice lady named Tish come and take us for walks every afternoon while Mom was at work. We loved Tish but Mom says Tish lives too far to come and take us for a walk now that we moved to our new house. Our new dog walker will have big shoes to fill, Tish was great!

They key thing I look for in a dog walker is treats. Sure hope he has good treats.

I will keep you posted my friends!
