(now you have to post 10 things about you on your diary pg... i can't wait to check them out!)

Why the name Jack? Read to find out the cause for our- madness!

Ok, I know that Jack is like the most original name for a dog. So... why'd I name my dog that? Well, I, unlike the other millions of other dog owners who's dogs are named Jack, have a reason. (don't worry it's creative)
J=Jared
A=Andrew
C=Courtney
K=Katie

Jared, Andrew, Courtney, and me (Katie) are our family's kids. See, we DO have a reason for are madness!

going crazy (LOL)

Ok, this is WEIRD! My dog Jack is like obsessed with, get this, a paper cup! I just had this big scuffle with him about trying to get it out of his mouth. i won at last but Jack is all sulky. the paper cup doesn't have food or drink or anything in it, it's just a normal paper cup! weird right? does ANYONE else's dog have "paper cup obsessions?" PLEASE paw me if so, because i feel weird owning a dog like that. (oh, and he chose the paper cup over a RAWHIDE!) silly Jack! LOL

What is that pink thing on my head?

Yea umm... that pink thing on my head is this winter hat that covers your whole head and only leaves a spot for your eyes and a smaller hole for your mouth. (the kind you would picture robbers wearing) (My head is in the larger whole, you can't see the other whole) Except this hat is PINK. yup, my owners put it on me and "oh, sure lets all point and take pictures of the poor doggie who is obviously NOT enjoying this torture." growl. (i think they momentarily forgot i am a MALE dog) so yup, and i sure wish they would delete that pix from my profile.(and maybe replace it with a pix of my Rocking awesome doggie abs) but NOOOOO, they say. ha ha ha ha they say. My personal thoughts... I am completely and totally embarrassed about the whole experience!

(p.s. owner's note: Jack does not have rocking awesome doggie abs, more like flimsy belly flab) LOL

Go-Cart madness

One sunny day on a June morning, all of my whole Ropp family went to our great grandma's house for a family reunion. We all brought our dogs, including a large choco lab, a mixed bread lab, my dog Jack, and a large golden. My great grandma had a go cart for us, her grand children. It was my big brother Jared's turn to drive. So he got to pick his passenger. He picked my younger sister Courtney. Courtney at that time was only like, three years old, so have some pity. Courtney had never been on the go-cart. SO we where sorta hoping this would be a good experience for her. I guess we didn't hope hard enough. Basically, this is what happened in the next twenty seconds. Jared was going way to fast for Courtney. She, being like the size of a beagle just started to slip right out of the side of the go-cart! Seatbelt not helping of course. So her little legs were being dragged. Now, stop for a second and just imagine what was going on in that little child's brain. What would you have done? Courtney did what your most scared instinct might do. Poop. LOL. NOT KIDDING!!! Jared, completely unaware of anything at this time just, sped up! So My dad ran in front of the go-carts path and Jared slowed down and Courtney flopped out into my worried mothers arms, bla bla bla. "so where's the dog come into the story?" you wonder. Well, you remember the poo correct? Well, my Grandpa quick yelled, "GET THE DOGS!!!" Too late. My dog (he's only a puppy) fast as lightning ran and snatched the poop. "Oooo Chocolate!" thought Jack. LOL!!! My grandpa ran over to Jack and pulled out (with his fingers!) the now quite slobbery, and sticky poo. Poor grandpa. Jack was very sad and went off to sulk about losing his prize. THIS IS A ABSOLUTELY TRUE STORY!!!!
