Triple Bark

It's been borin 'round here Pups. So borin and stinkin hot that I just haven't had the nenergy to bark anything in my diary.
But today! Woo Hoo! Yeah, it's hot but it's been a triple bark day. First off, the mailman pulls in. Yep, in the package he handed Mommy there was some sacks of doggie treats. All for Me. Well, I do have to share them. But I should get most of them.
Then this afternoon, the bug killer man pulls into My driveway. Wahoo! Tux went out right away but I wanted to stay inside to bark at that guy. Mommy encouraged me to go out. I decided to go out after she pulled me off the Love-Seat-Look-Out.
Bark fest, lemme tell ya!
And while the bug killer man was here, brown truck man stopped out in front!
It was a quick stop but bark-worthy jus' the same.

And don't tell Mommy but while she was gone shoppin this mornin, the guys came to move the irrigation pipe across the road. Super good barkin!

I'm not 'shamed to admit, I am one pooped pup after all that barkin. 'Cause with the barkin comes runnin back and forth along the fence, when we are doin our outside barkin.
It's hot out there. It takes it outta a pup.
I'll rest up and maybe there will some bicycle riders or walkers later this evenin when it starts to cool off.
I sure hope so!

Helpin Mommy

So Mommy needed to head to town for a couple of things. No problem. I can take care of the place while you are gone Mommy.
She went out the door. We are cool when she leaves.
But then I could hear her out in the garage. She was squealin, not a good, happy, fun squeal. She already had told me it looks like a crime scene out there. Lots of critter blood on the garage floor. So much that she will have to wash it off. Those cats are always draggin sumfin in there.
Then I heard the big garage door open. She was still squealin.
I started barkin then. To help with whatever the reason for the squealin I could hear her, "Eewww, icky, I don't like snakes! Yuck!"
She had to sweep a lil baby gray Momba out from under her Es-ca-pay tires or she woulda squished it real good. For all you snake lovers out there, there was no savin it. Sum cat had done it in. So I kept up the barkin, for moral support or jus 'cause I could.
I think the thing is still layin out there. She is gonna have to deal with it.
I wonder how I could help her with it.
I will think 'bout that.

Gonna be a great day!

Woo Hoo! It is gonna be a great day fur barkin at My place.
There is a Great Big field of wheat across the road. Yeserday, they started harvestin the wheat. Way over there.
Big green machines called combines go along and cut the wheat offa the stalk. Other big tractors follow along and the wheat gets dumped in the trailer things they are pullin. Or sumtimes a big farm truck follows along and the wheat get dumped in there.
Now they are workin already way over there. It is a big field but it doesn't take them a real long time 'cause those combines are big and there are a couple of them workin. So sumtime today they will be comin closer and closer to My place. And then the big trucks will drive right by My house to get into the field.
Ya see where I am goin with this?

Lots to BARK at!

Woo Hoo! It's shapin up to be a great day in My neighborhood.
Oh yeah, and Mommy needs to go to the city to get the boy's their kinda food. That means she won't be here to nag me to stop barkin!

Come on over if you want. We can bark to our hearts content!

Chow down, pig out, scarf up....

However you wanna bark it.
There is just sumfin great about Free Cake!
Thank you Pups for all the cakes you've sent to Me and the other dogs. Even the kitty cats are stuffin their furry faces with catnip cake!

There is no way in the world I can get evfurrybuddy thanked so this is the only way it will work.


THANK YOU FOR THE CAKE!!!!!!!

And to think that I saw it on My road

Have you pups evfur heard of a Dr. Seuss book called And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street? It's 'bout a kid who thinks up a whole bunch of stuff to tell his dad that he saw. The story grows and grows.
Nobuddy woulda believed the kid so in the end he decides to tell what he axfurly saw.
You may not believe what I Really did see on My road already this mornin. But of course, comin from me, you can believe it. I always bark the truth. And that's the truth.
So first thing, right off the bat, right after breakfast, a person went by. This person had rollers on the shoes on her feet. On those rollers were little short skies. She was roller-skiin or sumfin. Weird.
Then along with the usual trucks, farm equipment and joggers and their dogs I just saw a neighbor. This is the neighbor that has 2 LWDs! But this time the neighbor didn't have his LWDs. He was on his 4-wheeler. He had a long leash (lead rope) and on the end of the leash was a horse. I guess he was out walkin his horse.
Really weird!
I wonder what else I will see to bark at on My road today?
Ya just never know.

I gotta go. The neighbor on his 4-wheeler walkin his horse is comin back. I can hear the horse whinnyin!

Focus!

Ok, enough with it. First Cindy gets the 'tention. Bunches of rosettes and stuff. Then Mr. Drover claims it's his birthday. He doesn't even Know when his birthday is, he was 'dopted. Ok, so it was his Gotcha Day. Back a hunnerd years or so ago he came to live here.
He got tons of messages and rosettes and special gifties.

Enough! He's taken down the birthday pic and gone back to bein a nome. No more birthday cuppy cake background. Enough, done, finished, all gone.

Can we focus on the Important One?
That would be ME!

I am still on guard duty on my Love-Seat-Look-Out-Perch. I am the Only one who barks at stuff sumtimes. I am the one who stirs up the guys if it is a Really Big security threat.
Let's face it. I am Daddy's Grrl. Top Dog. Head of Security. Chief Kitty Tush Sniffer. The Keeper of the Cookies. Ok, well, that would be Mommy, but I am the one who goes outside, turns around, comes in and sits nice. So's we can All have cookies. The boys haven't figured out that trick yet.

So let's focus evfurryone.
It's all about ME!

Daddy's fine

Evfurrything went fine with his Procedure. He's not 'sposed to drive or operate heavy machinery for 12 hours so he is stayin home.
But it's borin. He was gonna go for a walk. Too hot. And he still didn't want to get too far away from the indoor potty place.
So we are all bein like slugs and nappin.

Bark at ya later. Thanks for the good thoughts and prayers that Daddy would be fine. He is!

Fun time ahead!

This is so great! Daddy is home, yeserday, today and tomorrow.
Lemme tell ya 'bout it.
Yeserday, Daddy had a dogtor 'pointment. He was gone a long time. But he didn't have to go to work. That's good.
This mornin, Daddy did go to work. But he was wearin sweat pants and a t-shirt, not his soldier uniform. And he will be comin back with a computer from work. He can work here at home and I can keep him company. I guess the work computer has better games on it than his computer here at home. :-/
He can't eat anything today. Only drink stuff. Clear liquids. Zaidie, please send a case of Bodka Dwips™. I'll pay you later.
And then he has some pills and some yucky stuff to drink. And he can't be far away from the indoor potty place. That's why he's not goin to work. He can take the work computer into the indoor potty place and not have any 'barrassin potty axidents.
Then tomorrow, Daddy goes to have sum Procedure. It's called a Ca-Lie-Doe-Scopee. Or maybe it's like Co-low-ne-al-scopee. I dunno. But then he will be home with Me! I bet he will play and play with me. :-)

Oh, and Mommy wants your folks to know, this is just a routine deal. But we would 'preciate your good thoughts and prayers.

Oh, these cats!

You pups know I got lots of kitty cats 'round My place. I got 2 kitties that stay in the house alla time. I got one kitty that comes and goes. And there are 3 kitty cats that live in the garage and stay outside.
Mommy or Daddy goes out to tuck in those 3 garage cats in the evenings. They are like 9 years old and they don't go too far away. They even kinda hang out waitin to be tucked in.
Last night, Scooter, the one who really doesn't go very far away at all, wasn't anywhere to be found.
You shoulda seen my pawrents. Runnin 'round, wringin their hands. Not a clue 'bout what to do.
I told 'em to clam down. To go 'round our place and call for her. Told Mommy to check cross the road. Told Daddy to walk along the wheat field.
See, I figured sumfin probbly skeered her and she ran to hide. Coulda been sum boys walkin dogs. Coulda been one of these feral tom cats we get 'round here. Coulda been anything.
She didn't come when they were callin her. She didn't even show up when it was bedtime.
So when Tux needed out at very early o'clock, Daddy looked for her again.
Found her over under our garage lean-to thing. She was fine. Kinda wet like she had been in the tall grass 'round here. But fine.
Daddy put her in the garage, safe and sound.

These cats! See what I have to put up with 'round here?

Look Ma! No leash!

'Cause I obey Daddy real good, well, almost real good, almost all the time, Me and Tux got to go on a No Leash At All walk.
Don't panic Pups. Daddy makes sure there are No vehicles comin on the road where we have to walk for 'bout a couple of feet. We went down to the field way down there by the river. Then we even took a side trip down to sum water by the neighbor's field.
Cool huh?
We didn't see anything 'xcitin but as always there were tons of good smells to smell. We got a good workout. And a ton of cookies when we got back!

Here's hopin your day is great.
