Vegas' Journal

It's that time again...SUMMER!

Well, I was wondering when the ice was going to melt on the lake. I collected as much ice as possible and kept it out on the lawn in the back, but it melted anyway. Since it melted Mommy wants me to swim. She takes me down to the beach at night and we swim together, She makes me stay on my leash though until I get real good at it. BUT... Daddy and Mommy took me out on this cool thing called a paddle boat. I had a blast, I saw Lacey and Gustave and Boots on the lake. They swam up to us and jumped right up into the paddle boat! Mommy wasn't very happy because she just had her toe nail removed and her foot hurt so much and then me and my friends were stepping all over it. She pushed us out of the boat and made me swim. I hated it. She keeps telling me I have webbed paws but this doggy paddle is hard to do! So we went home and Gustave swam over to visit us. He made a poopy in the backyard. Then Boots swam over did pee pees and ate my dinner! Mommy had a long talk with me about manners and needing new pup pals. I don't understand!

I'm a fatty

Hmmm... Where do I begin? My mummy is sad, the vet said she feeds me too much and that I am going to get fat. Is 8 cups of food with some yummy corn oil on it really too much to eat daily? I am a very active puppy who can run faster than lightening. I really hope mummy doesn't cut back on my pedigree, I don't want to starve. Mummy promises that she won't cut back too much on my breakfast and dinner and that we will still exercise as much as possible. I told her that vet is a quack. I think she agreed. Gotta go, I am on a hunt for some more cookies mom hides around the house, to keep my hunting instincts intact!

Busted again!!!

I have been such a bad boy this weekend, when normally I am soooo good! Daddy was making spanikopita for some pot luck thing at work. Well I love cheese, yum yum! When Mommy and Daddy went into the living room to tend to the fire, I stole one spanikopita. It was great! No one would have noticed because the plate didn't even move. Daddy was a little suspicious because he came in the check the stove and I was chewing up the remainder of the filo and licking my chops. Unfortunately, I got greedy because I can be a real piggy! So I took an entire plate and placed it on the kitchen bench and munched away. Well Daddy snuck into the kitchen and caught me with a mouth full! I ran like a gazelle into time out, without being told to go in because I knew I was in deep trouble! People food is so good, why can't they just give me what they are eating?? If they did I wouldn't have to steal their food when they aren't looking.
