Rascal's Thoughts

Swimming and Agility on the same day??

First mommy and auntie Jo led me into this .. . wet thing .. . which felt funny on my paws. Anyways we were at our usual park doing our usual playtime shenanigans when all of a sudden they took off those things on their feet and waded into this ... wet thing. I followed them and it was wet! And when I shook off I did not get any drier! Weird.

We played in the wet thing for a while, chasing balls and whatnot. Then we went on home. A usual day except for this "swimming" thing they kept getting excited about.

Then. Mommy came home from work and loaded me into the car. We drove a while and then we did some "agility" or whatever that is! There was a TUNNEL and a TIRE and a CLIMBIT and a OVER and a TABLE. It was FIVE new things to learn and I am exhausted. That's right, I said it - exhausted! I'm going to bed! Zzzzzzzzz (please to scritch my belly while I sleep) zzzzzzzz.

Another day at the dog park! W00t!

Mommy took me to Marymoor again today and I got to play with all kinds of dogs! I ran and chased and stole balls from other dogs and it was FUN! We only stayed for 2 1/2 hours, phooey! Mommy said it was COLD or something. Jeesh. Then that cold water fell from the sky again and after a few hours she grumbled and said it was time to go.

THEN. She brought me home and . .. I can't even say it. She made me take a BATH! Sigh. I *said* I could just lie down on her flannel sheets again and dry off, but NO. She made me get in the shower and the warm water fell on me for a while and she scrubbed me and she KNOWS I DO NOT LIKE IT.

I shook off most of the water all over the bathroom and then I rolled in the flannel sheets on our bed until I was mostly dry and they were mostly wet. I don't understand why she insists on this every month or so.

Then later mommy took us to our last day of basic obedience class and I mostly did what I was supposed to. I have to hold back a little, you know, to keep her guessing.

Now I am trying to nap but she keeps smooching all over my ears. What is that about? I know my ears are cute but the smooching! Oh, the smooching! Woof. I think I will make her take me outside again now that she put her jammies on, just for spite. Later I will take up the whole middle of the bed and see how far I can shove her off the bed while she sleeps. That is just how I roll, baby.

W00f!
