Back at the Ranch

I've been Tagged~~Twice...no Thrice (is that a word? BOL)

My great Dogster pals Maddi, Hunter and Jake PB have Tagged lil’ ol’ me!!!

Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged, need to post in their diary the rules and their 7 pawsome facts. Then choose some dogs to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to bark them a pmail that they have been tagged and to read your diary, or, send them a fun Rosette announcing they've been tagged.

Here are my facts:

1. Mom is my favorite…sorry Daddy…I’m just kinda stuck on her.
2. I was a rescue dog…I now have the bestest family ever!
3. I shiver when I’m cold, excited, worried, or just because I like the attention!
4. Dad says I have “Jelly Head” because I have a spot on the top of my head.
5. Mom always lets me lick her breakfast plate…usually it’s got egg, ham & cheese on it…yum, yum!
6. My favorite toy is the deer head that Angel got us last Valentines Day…she’s a sweetie fur sure.
7. Mom made me a new winter coat…it’s pretty red and very warm…I love it!

Now, I’m going to tag…

1. Cutie patootie Nadia
2. The precious Pippa
3. My Knight in Shining Armor Keeko
4. Mister Handsome himself Jake PuddinBritches
5. The Ultimately wise Flicka
6. The one ‘n only Rockin’ Roxie
7. Miss Pretty in Pink herself lil’Leila

A beautiful evening trail ride

Ya know, riding horses around here isn't new news at all. Mom rides just about every day 'cause that's what she does for a living. We're always going for lil' jaunts here and there.

But, late yesterday afternoon, about the time all us critters get fed, mom saddles up her horse Colt and dad's horse Whiskey. She rides Colt and leads Whiskey...we take a lil' ride 'bout a 1/2 mile to the other end of our property and back. Then she ties up the horses to the fence at the house.

She goes inside like she's gonna fix us pups our dinner...I'm giving her my bestest "Food Face" look...and nothings happening!!! No dinner...I'm wondering what the deal is anyhow...she's just ignoring me reading stuff on the 'puter!!!

Well, dad finally gets home from work. Then I finally get it figured out...we're going for a trail ride!!! WhoooooHooooo...a real trail ride. We went up the hill behind the house. That's one of my favorite places...there's jack rabbits to chase. We were gone for a long time and didn't get back to the barn til it was dark.

I was really hungry by then and dinner sure was tasty...it was well worth the wait ;>)

Another year at the Pendleton Round Up

Yep...another...my second!!! We had a great time. Now, they still don't let us pups into the rodeo and that's a good thing. Mom says you wouldn't believe the amount of people!!! Lil' me would be trampled!

We take the horse trailer wiff the living quarters in it and it's my job to stand guard and protect. We stay in a nice back yard wiff thick green grass and do BBQ's, and I get to cuddle wiff mom in her chair. There was another rattie there this year too! Her name is Heaven. She's a lil' toy rattie...she packs this big tennis ball wiff her wherever she goes...it's the cutest thing! And, she's 11 years old...she's fast too. I liked her.

So, we stayed 5 days and 4 nights. We all were ready to head back to the ranch by then. It's good to be home wiff Cowboy, Abby and all the horses.

Til next year...Let 'er Buck!!!
