My Human is Sad

My Human has been crying alot lately. We have been spending a lot of time at our other place. I miss sleeping on the big warm bed. Things are different. My buddy, the one that usually sits on the front porch with me and gives me belly rubs with his stick hasn't been around. My human hugs me alot but she cries a lot too. We went to a new place earlier this week and this really nice human carried me around in his lap for a long while. I saw lots of new friends that I had never met before. I got lots of ear rubs and belly rubs. But I was still glad when my human came and got me and we went home. That was lots of fun visiting these other humans. When we got home, my buddy was still not around. I'm not sure, but I think my buddy is gone away. He doesn't sit in his chair anymore. His flag is still flying on the porch. His plants haven't been watered for a while. I miss my buddy. I think my human misses him too. I try to tell her things will be OK. I wish she would not cry.

Rain, Rain Go Away

I don't like the rain. My human knows that I don't like the rain. She has a new box for me to ride in and it's big. I can find lots of places to hide in this big box. I like going with my human every day. We go to places where they give us good things to eat. We go visiting where the humans always give good belly rubs. There is something new in their yard though. My human called them rabbits. I found that I can even say rabbit. One is brown and one is brown and white and they are huge. They won't come very close but I know they are friendly. I had never seen huge rabbits like these. I have learned so many new things lately. My human let me sleep in her bed recently and I discovered how comfortable the bed is. I keep my eye on my human at night so that when she goes to bed, I make certain I get to go with her. Her bed is so tall, I have to ask for help to get there, and I stay as long as I can cause it feels so good! Isn't life grand!

Visiting Dr. Dan

Wow. My human took me on a surprise visit to see Dr. Dan today. There were some potential new friends there but no one paid any attention to me. I spoke to them but they just ignored me. And then, this sweet little girl came in the door. She walked right up and started loving me, rubbing that spot on my head. Wow, I was smitten immediately. The little girl then asked if she could hold me and I immediately started kissing her on the ears. She giggled (which is the expected response) and proceeded to give me a good rubdown. She was lots of fun. Then I went in to see Dr Dan and his friend. Dr Dan gave me a good belly rub. I was having a good time until he started putting this stuff in my nose. I did not like that at all and I tried to tell Dr Dan. Dr Dan just kept on putting these drops in my nose. When he stopped I looked around at my human to see if she noticed what they had just done. I reckon she did. I don't think I want to go back anytime soon, although I did like those belly rubs.

Howl'oween

Whoa! My human decided it was time to show some team spirit and dressed me in this orange sweater with a big T on it. I was glad because the wind blowing today is a little chilly. But I had to wear it all day and brother Ray teased me a lot about my sweater. He said I was a wuss for getting dressed up and laughed at me. So when my human wasn't looking I tried to take the sweater off. I almost had it off when I was caught taking it off. My human didn't seem to mind. We had lots of fun today going around visiting. Life is such fun! I even got some candy when my human wasn't looking.

Summertime

This is my favorite time of year. My human takes me visiting . I love riding in the car. When we get to grandma and grandpa's house, I get lots of loving and belly rubs. The neighbors have lots of dogs across the street and I spend all day talking to them. There are all kinds of interesting things going on their yard. I have also trained the mailman to rub that spot on my head every day too. He always looks for me and smiles. I like him. Have a happy summer everyone.

New Friends

I have some new friends that need to find their forever homes. I'm glad I found mine. I hope they find wonderful homes like mine. My human thinks our home is already a little too crowded to invite others to live with us. I wouldn't mind though. I like playing with Jack and Brownie and Honey. Honey picks me up by my sweater sometimes though. I don't like that too much. I tell her to stop and then I jump on her. I have fun teaching my human to do what I want. My human has finally learned to give me my treats when I tell her to. I have to stare at them really hard until she notices. Then I tell her I want a treat. When she understands what I want, I stand up and wave at her until she gives me my treat. If I try really hard, she will give me all the treats I want. Isn't life grand!

Springtime

Uh oh. Mom got the clippers out and gave me a haircut. I didn't mind it so much. Actually it felt pretty good while she clipped me. It's a good thing I don't look in the mirror. She took me visiting again this week. I know when to look out the window. I can recognize the place we are going now and can hardly wait to get out of the car to see my friends. I love spring time.

What are Oranges?

My human has been eating something different lately. It smells so good. I anxiously wait for my human to come home each day. She gives me treats and I get to play with Jack and Brownie and Honey. I have to spend quite a while checking out the neighbors and what is different in the yard everyday. Everybody is bigger than me, but I can run under them and around them. I don't like the rain. I'm so glad I found this human. She is so easy to train! Life is fun! That spot on my head needs scratching now....
