It's my second gotcha day!!!!!!!

Tomorrow, January 27 is my second gotcha day. I can't believe that it has been 2 whole years that i have been in my forever home. I am a happy, lucky pup and very grateful to have a forever home. I am forever grateful to Jaxie and Beebe Humane Society for rescuing me from the puppy mill, they took good care of me there until my mom and dad adopted me. Here on dogster I have made so many new friends and my mom has learned many new things and gotten helpful information . She has also made many new friends here too.

It's Been Awhile

Our company is gone and quiet reigns again. My Gigi and Aunt Karin came 12/19 and left on sunday 12/29, it was a very busy 10 days. My Gigi and Aunt live in KY. and basically come to visit once a year. They came on Friday night and then had a viewing and funeral to attend with my mom and dad on Monday. Then there was all this visiting to be done and cooking, cooking, cooking and cleaning, wrapping pressies and more visiting. They also brought my cousin Amy, who is a real whoose and not that friendly, she is ascared of everything!! She didn't like being alone with us, go figure, she's a yorkie like us, what's her problem? Christmas mom put her back out and suffered for a few days until it worked it's self out. Santa paws was good to us, we got toys, treats and clothes too. Romey and I must of been good pups. Mom goes back to work on Monday, we were spoiled having her home all this time, now we have to get use to her being out most of the day. She's going to have a 3 day weekend for MLK day so we will have to wait until then. I want to wish everypup out there a joyous,wonderful Happy New Year. I hope that 2009 is a better year for everyone.

OMD It's been awhile.

Well my brother has been here almost a month n ow and needless to say we have been getting along. We have been running around the yard and I am teaching him to bark at all the neighbors and to raise a fuss. We run all through the house and wreck havic , roll all over the floor and just have a good time. When I have enough fun, I just nip his ear and I"m done. I am playing with more toys and eating treats that I never ate befor and that makes mom happy. He hasn't been upstairs in my bed with mom and dad yet, I don't think I'd like that , but I guess it's bound to happen one day. We do sleep together on the sofa though. But mom's feet belong to me and only me. Mom has been running around getting ready for the holidays, her mom and sister are coming from Kentucky for Christmas and she has so much to do. Then there is the horror of shopping, but we're not going there. If I don't get back to my diary before Thanksgiving I hope everyone has a great one. If I could have one wish for Thanksgiving it would be that KM gets Hope home.

He's finally here.........

Well my new brother is finally here, he's been here 11 days. I guess he's ok, but it's going to be some time until I' m used to him. He's a cute pup and wants to play all the time. I think it will be fine once he realized that mom is MINE all mine. He can get close to her but she belongs to ME, ME, ME. Go figure, they named him Romeo, I guess that is supposed to be cute, Romeo and Juliette, he's my brother for pete's sake. Romeo just turned 7 months this week so he is just a pup still, mom calls him galump because that's how he runs, galump,galump. He has big feet and is 9 pounds now, mom hopes he doesn't grow into those feet. they said he won't grow bigger than he is now, we shall see !!! He is very laid back where I am very hyper, when he bothers me I give him a little nip to set him straight and he does let me jump all over him. I will let you know later how things work out. Mom says he's a keeper though.

Now I've done it,

Now I've really did it this time, mommy is really mad at me. On Saturday I had my first kill, I killed a vole and mom snatched it away and put it in the trash. Well tonight as mom was making dinner, I was doing my usual, patrolling the yard before I had to come in for the night. All of a sudden mom heard me screaming and ran out of the house to see what happened. Well I got a squirrel and was killing it and it bit my foot, the nerve of that squirrel!! Mom almost had a heart attack on the spot, she yelled for my dad and he came running too. Mom grabbed me as I was trying to get at the squirrel again, she was holding me and dad said I was bleeding. Mom took me in the house to check me out and dad put the squirrel in the trash can with my other kill, the vole. I got mom all bloody and she called the vet to see what to do, and how current my rabies shot was. The dirty rotten squirrel bit my foot, just the pad though , but it bled a lot. The vet said I just got my rabies shot in January and I was good, and just wash the foot good and put hyodren peroxide on it and later neo sporen and I should be fine. Mom is not thrilled with what I did, she said she hoped I learned my lesson, now she has to keep an eye on me in the yard. Do you think the squirrel has family and do they want revenge?? I will has to keep my eye open from now on when I'm out in the yard.

Diary of a killer.............

I made my first kill today and mom is not happy, me on the other hand, I'm quite proud of my self. As you know it is my job to keep my yard free of pesky squirrels,chipmunks and other critters so I was just doing my job. In the beginning mom thought it was fun watching me jumping all over the place growling and pulling up the ivy, I guess she didn't think I could really catch something. Well did I fool her, I caught something and tossed it up in the air so mom could see. But she didn't say "good girl" or even "good job" she screamed at me and came running. So I had to snatch it and run around the yard a few times and give mom a run for her money and then I calmly dropped it in the grass. I looked at mom so she could praise me and I look ed again and my prize was gone . Mom got the pooper scooper and snatched it away and put it in the trash. Mom said it was a vole, I think she was relived that it wasn't a chipmunk. I thought I did a good job even though mom didn't. Next time I'm not going to let mom see!!!!!!!

Big loud machines!!!!!

Our kitchen was filled with water, but now there are big loud machines! Mom called the insurance company and they sent a lady over to look at our messy kitchen. She went out to her truck and brought in big, big machines. They are running in the kitchen and in the basement, I don't like them, they make too much noise for me. Mom said the really big one is a dehumidifier and the others are fans. They make the kitchen hot and noisy and now I don't like to go in there, that's where my pee pad is so I peed on the carpet , hee hee, I'm bad, but it's too scary in there. Mom said it's going to be like that until the lady comes back Thursday night. Mom said she doesn't want to see what the electric bill will look like!! The good thing is mom hasn't been cooking and we have ordered out the last two nights. Well I'll bark later after to machines go away.

Oh What A Night!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boy did we ever have a night last night!!!!! We were just getting ready to go up to bed last night at 11:15 when we heard a funny noise from the kitchen. Mom asked dad if he turned the dishwasher on and he said no. Mom got up to look and water was gushing out from under the sink, she opened the door and water squirted out all over her, HOT water. She told dad to run to the basement to shut the water off, but dad couldn't find where to do that. Mom quick called her furless son and he came over. By the time he got here the water was running down the basement steps and through the ceiling like a water fall. Water was everywhere and I stood in the middle of the kitchen floor and looked at mom, I said honest, I didn't do this, I used the pee pad. But as I said that, the pee pad sort of floated by me. It was a big mess and a lot of stuff got ruined by the time the water was shut off. Mom was up pass 3:00 cleaning up and got up this morning and she is still cleaning it up now. She is trying to decide if she should call out from work tomorrow and if she should call the insurance guy.

Fall

Well fall is here , the leaves are falling and it's getting cool. It's also getting darker earlier so I can't play outside as long. Mom got me a Halloween costume and we are waiting for it to come in the mail. I am going to be a Bumble Bee I hope mom doesn't drag me to the parade this year, it's way too noisey for me, string bands, motorcycles etc, are not my style. I'm waiting for mom to get pumpkins though 'cause they attrack squirrels and I'm going to get me one. I have to watch for the hawk 'cause he wants to get a squirrel too. He sits up in the tree and when mom hears the crows being real loud she knows he's around and I have to come in. He got a pigeon last week, he just swooped down out of the sky and grabbed him, that sure made mom nervous , she was out on the deck when that happened and he wasn't scared of her. Well I got to go and run around some more outside, before I have to come back in. Bark more later............

mom's losing it !!!!

Well school hasn't been in session a full week and mom's fed up. She said it is so hard to break in a new teacher and staff. Well it's not really a new teacher, but a new teacher to her, but she hasn't a clue. Mom says the ulcer is digging in and looking for a home. At the rate it's going some one is going to get hurt or fired and mom said it's not going to be her. Special ed is a rough and tumble job and some one 's got to do it, but it gets harder each year and mom's not getting any younger. I guess we are going to buy a lot of lottery tickets and maybe we'll get lucky, after all some one's got to win the money, it could be us!!!!!! Mom said she's is glad her deaf boy can't hear what she is saying under her breath, he would be learning a few choice words. Anywho we are still waiting to see if I am getting a new brother things are hectic down south because of the hurricanes , so we have to wait and see what happens. I am so sad when mom leaves for work, I put on my pity full face and make mom feel bad, then I don't eat and mom feels worse. Mom's watching the Rutgers football game, at the moment they are losing, her cousin's son plays for Rutgers so we are hoping they win. Well I got to get going, hoping all the kitties and pup make it through Ike ok
