OMD A Royal Visit

Man oh man I am STILL psyched!

Guess who showed up at my house? Finn and Skye. They brought their Mommy too!

When they walked in, I was sooo excited I could have chased my own tail! Finn and Skye, here in my own living room! And talk about FURRY! You should see their coats. Wow, they are royal. Summer says.."Is that what we are suppose to look like?"

We had a swell time. We sniffed each other, gave cavie kisses to each other's pawrents, got belly rubs and apple slices. I even got to try Alpharetta water! The Mommies took lots of pictures. Check out their facebook pages!

The pawrents talked and talked. Seems like they new each other forever.

Bubba was a toy hog. You'd think he never plays with toys. He went nuts for Finn's toy Buddy. Even when it was on the table he kept trying to get it.

Summer was something else. Who was that dog? I think she wanted Finn and Skye to give a good report to Zumbi. Finn's Mommy was concerned because Bubba was hogging her toy. Summer sits there like a sweet lttle demure thing. HA! Let me bark it out for you all.... if we didn't have compoany she's kick his furry kiester and take her toy.

We were all diving for the water bowl and she sits there like all "the big boys won't let me near the bowl" again HA! She could of taken all of us with one paw tied behind her back and drink all the water herself and then burp! Who was she fooling?

Skye did pretty well even though he's just getting over being sick. We picked up our food, water and reats so he wouldn't get sick. Speaking of food, Mommy fogot the cow creamer when she served coffee. Martha Stewart she ain't.

I think Finn and Skye has a good time. They were pretty tired out when they left our house. (No mini though...) Even though we all took a little nappie.

I jsut had the best ole time. Finn's Mommy is real nice too. She gave me kises and belly rubs. She's a keeper.

I'm planning a a road trip to Georgia. Anyone with me?

Just being a dog

Hi everybody. Long time since I posted a diary entry. I think today I'll bark about about us dogs just being dogs.

What am I whinning about? Let me give you some examples... First of all, I and the other fur people in the house were perfectly fine. But Mom decides we all need haircuts and a bath. I know, I know, what's her problem. Anyhow, we all got taken to this place where they gave us a haircut and a bath. All of us came out smelling real fru-fru and very un-dog like, if you know what I mean. So what's a dog to do, right? Bubba and I were out for a walk together and both of us being boy dogs... maybe I better explain to those of you who don't know about us boy dogs. We go number one by lifting a leg. No, really, it's a neat trick. It takes alot of balance but we can write our names on stuff like fire hydrants or mailboxes. Anybark, Bubba and I helped each other out and well, peed on each other. Mom had one of her coniption fits right there on the sidewalk on a Sunday morning. Yelling at both of us that she just had us groomed and that we were gong to go to the pound. Can you tell that Mom has pee issues? You'd think we pee nuclear waste by how she can carry on. The neighbors think she is some kind of raving lunatic. I mean geesh, we went out side for the love of lassie. I think of doggie urine, or any urine for that matter, as a nice cologne. Mommy would say that we are gross. Go figure.

Here's another example... a few nights ago, Bubba threw up and Summer helped clean it up. If Mommy cleans it up, she gets paper towels,spray, a whole big production. Summer, being a very practical dog just eats it. Us dogs say cool and thanks. Mommy says gross. Then on top of that the folks wouldn't let Summer lick them in the face. Really, Bubba and I didn't mind. Humans, they can be so fussy. Despite the fact Summer drank water, ate her kibble and her breath was doggie fresh, she acted like a human and made it better for the folks. She got a hold of Daddy's breathmints and ate two. She spit out the wrapper and everything. (By the way, she's real good at getting stuff like that. Actually, she's a genius at it! If I may brag on her myself.) I think breathmints are gross but the folks were a little amused by that.

My final example is cats. Personally, I don't see any use for them and if I had my druthers I'd chase them to kingdom come. But the folks keep telling me to be nice to the kitties. So, one night I was out for my bedtime walk with Daddy and there was a cat, just laying by our mailbox. I, in totally polite, friendly dog fashion, sniffed the cat's butt. ( By the way, nothing to write home about) I tell you, Kitty shot out of there like it was launched out of a canon. I did not not growl, nip or lick. All I did was a friendly, neighborly, little sniff. How can a dog be nice to a skittish creature like that? Cats. Don't even have good canine manners.

Well, I better be going. Uncle Ed is coming over to help Daddy move some furniture. I have to make Uncle Ed feel loved. He's not much of a dog person but I've been working on him. I'll get Summer and Bubba to help me too. Won't Uncle Ed just love a barky, happy, jumpy, licky dog welcome!

Lovey Sounds

That's what Mom calls it. It's the sounds I make when I am REAL happy. Like when she comes home and we are having our special cuddle time. Sort of like a whine. Kind of a growl thrown in there. I guess I'm just a vocal kind of guy and I make these sounds when she is loving on me. Can't help myself. I also sort of moon up into her eyes when I do it. She loves that.

I also make the sounds sometimes when dad is loving on me.

In the past few weeks I have made the sounds when two of the neighbors have petted me. (Karen and Doug). Karen said Zoe makes the same kind of happy sounds.Mom was worried that the folks are away too much but she forgets I have the little furball with me so I'm not lonely. Besides, I'm use to being home before dad retired. Anybark, there is only a little time left on the test grading paer and I'll have Dads home during the day and Mom at night. Back to normal.

I think Mom thought it was her special sound just for her but she understands the cavalier temperment. We love everybody! I wonder what other furs do to make their humans feel special and loved? Or is that just a cavalier talent?
