Arrival Story:
We adopted his brother Barney several months earlier from a rescue shelter. The shelter called us and told us they thought they had Barney's brother. When we first met Chester (formerly known as Teddy) he had his face buried in a woman's purse looking for food. When he saw his long-lost brother, Barney (formerly known as Colby), he forgot the purse and came galloping over as if to say, "Hey, bro, where ya been?". It was a Hallmark moment. The rescue shelter gave us a discount on the adoption since they wanted them to be together.

Forums Motto:
Got any food?

My human brother is coming home from that college place tomorrow. I have visions of FUUUD dancing in my head. He's always good for some good snacks. And I get to sleep with him, and he never complains about my snoring. Oh happy day!

 

My Day at School

I got to go to school with mom on Halloween! She dressed up as Cruella DeVil, and I dressed up as a Dalmatian disguised as a Blue Tick Coon/Bassett Hound! Pretty clever, huh? Anyway, I LOVE school. Turns out it's a place where lots of people pet you and pay attention to you and give you treats! Who knew that's where mom goes every day? I trotted through the halls making friends with everyone, including the headmaster, whoever he is. Mom said I better be extra nice to him. In mom's class I jumped up and put my paws on desks until the very nice kids petted me or gave me a treat. Did you know they have Milk Bones at school? When I wasn't getting enough attention, I sat in the middle of the room and sang until someone paid attention to me. Mom said she didn't get any teaching done that day. By the way, my favorite class was lunch.

I came home and told my brother, Barney, all about it. Then I took a long nap 'cause that school place is exhausting.

 

Sad day...

My human brother leaves for some place called college tomorrow. What's college? Can you eat it? I'm really going to miss the kid. He never gets tired of throwing the tennis ball for me to fetch. He also drops a lot of really good stuff on the floor when he's sitting on the couch eating. Best of all, he lets me have most the bed when I sleep with him, and he never complains about my snoring and farting.
