Foolishly impulsive doggie in the window purchase by huzz and kids. Turned out to be just the best dog we've ever had. Otis rules! He is everyone's favorite pooch at bbqs, and a great babysitter.

Bio:
I go running with my lady owner and get to chase critters around the floodplains. I hang out at the beaver dam when I get tired but those dang trappers!! Well it smelled really good but the dang trap got my lady and my leash. Boy I was mad! If it was in water I never woulda found it. I howled so loud and didnt leave her side till my man got her. Now its my job to stay right next to her when we go for those runs. In fact, now I get to go almost everywhere with her.

Man theres alot of snow this yr. And woooweeee get to play in it every storm!!! Bahrhoooooo! Last yr I guess we got piddly. But its make up time and the boys are shoveling alot. The neighbors are out for our routine pack run and I love it! Sometimes its hard to keep up with the whippet and the mut next door. I trip over my ears if I get running too fast. Miranda waits for me though and that makes her really cool.
The boys' school vacation has been really good this yr. Mom and Dad go to work and the boys stay home and play with us. The funny thing is no one knows who's fed who and when so we get extra. hahah what a bunch of dopes!

 

Winter is here.. bahroooo

OHHHH GEEEZ! Its cold out there! I am so glad the master and mistress moved our dogyard up against the house. This way, Daisy, Miranda and I can come in and out as we please. That big Miranda is crazy, she likes it out there. And Daisy....she just shakes and pees...so not cool. She is afraid of the snow! get that? OMG its really funny. How odd.
I know she's a southern belle, but gimme a break. Since she and Miranda came to live with me she got so healthy and strong. I thought for sure we'd have fun running in the snow. Our first big snowfall was last week. Mistress let us out FREE while the humans shoveled the driveway. Daisy ran out and whimmpered back in like shed been beaten. How odd. Oh well. Miranda and I did our rounds visiting the other loose dogs in the neighborhood.
Oh yeah...its a snowday thing here. Its our gang and whoooooweee ruuuule the strrrrrreeets we do. There's the pltthound, a mix and another whippet mix and we just go from house to house chasing the cats heheheheh.

 

it has begun

Ohhh I just hate the heat like this. it would be so cool if Mlady was a morning walker/runner, literally. No not me today...pick Daisy...pleeze! I'll go in the truck with the dad-man, yeah. I dont mind a thunderstorm too much cuz I know its gonna cool off.
Now I'm not much for water bigger than a tub. They think its such a treat to go down to the noisy cold brook for a swim...all of them are crazy. The other dogs and my human family too. Why on EARTH would I want to do that? I tried it a couple of times but I just plunk to the bottom. geez! gimme a ball to chew, c'mon!
Yeah...I got an attitude today. Summer means alot of walks with the kids and stuff. I like the cookouts they take me to and I get to play with even more kids. I sit under the table for one of those snot-bubblers to drop something. I sit under the keg and clean up any spills and burp with the human counterpart. (sigh) life would be great if it wasnt so darn hot.
But I get that extra spoiling with a cool tub of water not always stupid soap and I just get to sit in it and drink it too. and I got used to that ear thing mlady does.
another day....another time.
