Yesterday, Mommy gave us our monthly flea treatment. Well..I HATE flea treatment. It is stinky and horrible. Jake is a good boy for flea treatment day. He Actually seems to enjoy the attention. The cat comes in second place for flea treatment behaviour as he hisses and squirms. I am the WORST flea treatment patient!!! So Mommy always does me last. I hate the stuff on my skin. It STINKS! The first time they ever did it to me, I took off running up and down the stairs in panic after wards and they all laughed at me. These days, I just roll and roll all over the floor and try to get the smell off. Sometimes I roll in my cage. Yesterday I did that. I rolled in my cage...oinking, grunting and growling and mumbling with glee. BUT Mommy decided (because Jake was prancing at the back door all happy) to let us out. It was raining. It was muddy. I was stinky with this stuff on me. We have a nice shrub in the yard. It had mud under it. (can you see where I am going with this?)
I was still in my cage when Mom opened the door to go out and i bolted for the outside, flung myself in the the shrub, and rolled and oinked and barked and snorted in the mud WITH GLEE!
Jake was looking at me like i was nuts and then just went pee. Mommy was yelling at me and calling me TEDDY GET OUT OF THE MUD! GET OUT OF THAT SHRUB RIGHT NOW! MR TEDDY, YOU WILL NOT GET A COOKIE!!!!!!!!! - "oink oink oink" = me.
Jake had done his business and came in the house and I was still rolling in the mud and making weird happy noises. in the pouring rain.
Finally Mom gave up yelling and coaxing and just burst out laughing at me. It was THEN, that I came in the house. MUDDY AND BROWN FROM PAW TO SNOUT!

But boy oh boy did I smell better!!

Kisses,Teddy!
