My Shenanigans

Me and those exciting sheep.

Earlier this year, mom totaled the lawn mower. It ran over it's last dog toy I guess, and went all katywampus. Is that a word? Anyways mom was so tired of dealing with the mower that she bought 2 sheep. OMG! SOOOOOO fun to chase!!! Me and my sis Bullet think they look like lunch. Mom gets so mad when we go after them. I just can't resist! She even named them "Kibbles" and "Bit." Mmmmmmm... I like to grab onto the wool as they run. Bullet likes to nip up the face and ears. What else are sheep good for? Now mom put a damper on the fun, we can only go out with our muzzles on. We still chase them but once we corner them all we can do is poke at them with our noses. Lame!!! Even the sheep are onto us- they learned to just go into a corner and freeze. That ends the chase pretty quick. But it's fun for a minute! I recommend all you doggies hide your toys in the tall grass. Especially the hard ones like Nylabones, and rope toys work well too. If you can break the mower, maybe you can get sheep too!

I'm Hooligan!

Hi, I'm Hooligan! I'm supposed to be a whippet, but I'm way over the maximum allowable height for a whip. Not quite a greyhound though. Mom calls me a "Grippet." I'm learning flyball. It's still confusing to me for now. Mom tells me not all dogs can be perfect like my sister Nitro, she reassures me I'll get it eventually. Something about "boys being slower"?!? I love roughhousing with my sister Bullet, and I love chasing squirrels too. I'm not very stealthy at it though, they always hear me coming. But I never give up. I get a lot of boo-boos. Last weekend I got my leg caught in the fence chasing a squirrel. And before that, I got a sinus bone cracked on my head when my sis Bullet and I got into a squabble over who got to eat some barf! You know, the good kind that happens just after eating. It's like a second meal! Mom was pretty embarrassed explaining that to the vet. But a few staples later and I'm fine. I no longer breathe out of my forehead. I'm always up to some sort of shenanigans, it keeps mom busy. That's it for now! I gotta go chase the cat.
