A Dog's Life by Sadie Mae

I won, I won!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so excited I can hardly stand it. My mama entered my picture,( the one with me wearing the pretty hat), into a local internet photo contest that had several catagories for winners. The catagories were Best Dressed, Magnicent Mutt, Owner-Lookalike and Ugliest Dog. This contest went on for a few weeks and then the Winner was to be announced at the Civic Center Lubbock Pet Fair and guess what I WON for Best Dressed. I had the most votes. I have never won anything in my life. Want to know what I won? Huh? Huh? I won a photo shoot with a local photography for a free 8X10 of myself. Isn't that great!!! Of course when I get it, I will have to enter in on my dogster page. It all started with a great local website started by a real nice lady named Sandy Parker. The website is called LubbockFunClub.com and anyone can join. They have all kinds of fun stuff there. Just info in case anyone is ever coming to visit Lubbock.
That is my most exciting news. I still stay in the house with my little pals T.K. and Rhino-Mejo. Mejo is just getting older and gripier. His birthday is at the end of this month and he will be 13 years old. Mom says that is really old in dog years. I don't know what she means by that but I could tell it just by looking at the old guy. He bumps into me because he can't hardly see anymore. Sometimes I stick out my leg when he is walking, just to see him trip. I can sneak up on him and take away his bones, if I come in from the back of him because he cannot hear very well either. It sure makes him come a chasing after me though. T.K. just thinks he is smart all the time because he is so little. He just walks under me when I am standing just like I am a bridge he is going under or something. He growls at me if I get too close to his bones and I have to admit I am a little afraid of him because he is fast and likes to bite my mouth and nose and it really hurts and makes me holler. Then if people are around they just laugh because he is so little beating be up, but you know I just can't fight him back because I am afraid of hurting him, but don't tell him. Well I guess I will close for now. Write more later. Woof! Woof!

Moving Day

February 01, 2005

Things have really been crazy around my place. I think my mommy person has lost all of her marbles. She just all of a sudden started taking everything out of the house and all of a sudden she came back and took me on her last trip. I found all of our stuff again but all the rooms are different. There is not as much running space in the house but the back yard is way better. The old man Mejo-Rhino is still just as gripey as ever but he adjusted better than me and did not even seem as curious as I was! All he ever does is sleep, sleep, eat and then sleep some more. I guess the best thing about this move for me is that now I get to sleep on my mommy's bed , instead of a bed of my own in the laundry room. I am so glad because I think I would have been nervous in the new laundry room all alone. Them other two little brats have always got to sleep in a real bed. I feel so safe now and just stretch out as much as I want. That is until my mommy starts pushing me over. I'll write more later because now I think I hear that big bed calling my name. Woof! Woof!

Why can't I be good????????

October 15, 2004

It has really been some day today. I decided to talk to my diary before I go to sleep for the night. First thing this morning my mama let me out of my room and I was so happy and accidently stepped on my little companion, Rhino-Mejo and Mama scolded me to look where I was going. I was just so happy and he is so little that I just did not see him. I tried to give him a kiss to make it up to him but he just growled and bit me as usual. He is old and so gripy sometimes. He acts like he is the godfather of this household just because he has been here so long. The other little playmate, TK , he just thinks he is the enforcer of the household and does everything the godfather tells him to, so he bites me too. I still love them and would never bite them back. The next thing I know I am in trouble again because I found this houseshoe laying in the floor in my mama's bedroom and it just begged to be chewed up, so I obliged it. Mama was very angry!! I gave her my special look and put my paw on her lap and she could not stay mad. She loves me alot.
Well other than tearing up a spool of crochet cotton with half a doily made attached to it, and getting in the trash a few times and spilling my puppy chow all over the floor I really think I was pretty good. I just don't know why my mama is always asking me why I can't be good. I'm sleepy now. Write more later. Woof! Woof!
