Tip's Tales...

Left Behind

This weekend my masters went out of town and guess who didn't get to go?! ME! I could tell they were leaving...they called up my "Uncle Chad" and asked him to house sit and took my sister to the kennel (she likes to escape from the fence). I saw them carrying various items out of the house such as a tent, cooler, and pillows and blankets. Notice they didn't carry out any of my stuff! I knew something was up...they even had the boat hooked up!! Daddy made Mama sit in the driver seat and check the lights on the trailer...I took it upson myself to "load up" in her lap. I was ready to go! That didn't last long...Daddy pulled me out of the truck. My new angle was guilt trip them into taking me and make the cutest faces possible. Daddy wanted to take me and helped me put the guilt trip on Mama. She started weakening and I thought we had her...until I got put in my kennel! So my weekend was a HUGE bummer. I was so mad at them. They KNOW how much I LOVE the boat! Every time I heard a vehicle go by, I begged "Uncle Chad" to let me out and see if they had realized they forgot me...no such luck. Like I said, HUGE BUMMER! Well, they FINALLY decided to come home and I was out in the yard doing my routine checks of the trees, gota keep them free of the squirrels :) They pulled in and Mama stuck her head out the window and started talking to me. I acted like I didn't even know who they were. HA leave me at home! She kept talkin' and I got softer and softer and my tail slowly started wagin'. I didn't want it too, but it did its own thing and before I knew it I was poucin' around waiting for them to come thru the gate. Darn unconditional love.
