This Christmas was really great. I got lot of presents.
Scratchy tried to take all the presents for himself.
Once we sorted all the presents out and I got mine, Scratchy did get a toy that he liked.
My favorite toy came from some of my friends. It was my favorite because my younger person played with me.
I got a reindeer that I really like too – because it has a loud squeak.
I haven’t figured out what to do with my big bone, so I’ve been carrying it around the house. I tried to take it outside to bury it but my person made me drop it before she’d open the door.
After we opened presents we got to go for a walk. I could have used some snow to play in but I can’t complain. It was a perfect day.
This has been an exciting day. I think it’s time for a nap.
Good night.

Sounds like you had a fantastic Christmas Bongo! I got bones too – real ones the size of dinosaur bones (nearly) 🙂

You are fortunate you don’t have to share your toys with Wonderbutt, Bongo. He has stolen all of Mrs. P.I.B.’s presents.

Poor Mrs. P.I.B. I hope she gets some of her toys back after Wonderbutt

Good news on all those presents pal. I didn’t get anything. But when I have been given toys before I look at them sort of puzzled. Never did work out what to do with them.

Pippa, I guess I’m a toy kind of dog – but I hope you at least had fun tearing up paper or something.

Isn’t that bone a little bit too big for you? 😉
Bongo

Dianda, I’ve managed to whittle that bone down to a more manageable size.

That’s a whopper of a bone Bongo! Glad you and Scratchy got some great toys for Christmas!
Bongo

Thanks Barb. That bone isn’t as big anymore. Since I couldn’t bury it I decide maybe I should finish it off.

Nanina, I have to admit that my person put that picture of Scratchy on there. Sometimes she overrules me since I depend on her to get on the computer. Oh, and I’m supposed to tell you that Scratchy likes your little cat mark.

Angel’s Whisper, I guess it didn’t do any good to dream of a white Christmas – but the sunshine was really nice so that’s okay.

wow! that is a big bone Bongo…that will keep you chewing for ages….
I can send you some snow but I think it would have melted by the time it got to you,,Have a look at my blog and you can see snow..will that do ?
Bongo
December 27, 2011 at 11:12 am
Patreciau, I’ll keep looking at the snow on your blog until we get some more here. Right now our weather is just about perfect, so I’m happy to wait awhile to play in the snow again.

OMD! The bone is huge!!! I’m jealous! I’m glad that you had a perfect Christmas Bongo and Scratchy!
The weather is also perfect! very beautiful scene! I got my favorite treats for Christmas too! Woo woo! 🙂
Bongo

Kevin, I’m so glad you got good treats for Christmas too. My bone is much smaller now, and I keep trying to bury it but my person won’t let me take it outside.

Bongo, my dog Duke got a huge bone but I think he is scared of it. All 60 pnds of him cowers at it’s sight.
Bongo
December 27, 2011 at 7:39 pm
Jennifer, thanks for stopping by and commenting. I hope Duke decided to enjoy that bone. I finally figured out what to do with mine. Since my person wouldn’t let me bury it I reduced the size of it.

Great description of a great day, Bongo. Oh, the German got a bone too…and was afraid to put it down….and not allowed to take it outside….later we found she “buried” it between couch cushions. Rest up for the new year!
Bongo
December 27, 2011 at 7:45 pm
Yay for the German. I didn’t even think of using the cushions to bury my bone.

Uptown Dog, I didn’t think I was so good, but I really made it on Santa’s nice list this year.

Wow, that is a enormous bone! It might take a long time to dig a hole for it.
On a different note, did you also get to eat your cookies?
Nel
December 28, 2011 at 1:07 am
Oops, i should say an enormous
Bongo
December 28, 2011 at 11:33 am
Nel, my person wouldn’t let me take my bone out and bury it so I ate it instead. She’s doling out the cookies to me one at a time, so I still have lots left. I’d love to stick my nose in and gobble up all those cookies at one time.

You are one lucky dog, Bongo!!! Sounds like you had a great Christmas and we loved seeing all your new toys! Hope you got to break into more of those delicious cookies too 🙂

Deannamelanie, I got some cookies, but my person is only giving me one or two a day. I really have this urge to eat them all at once.

My Christmas was lovely too and I got a reindeer as well!!!
I like burying stuff – but this Christmas I just ran off with my favourite new toy and hid it in the house for a while to stop anyone getting it. It was so great they were bound to want to play and I didn’t want to share.
I am over it now though.
Love and licks, Winnie

Winnie, I’m glad you had a good Christmas too. That’s funny that you hid your toy. I’ll have to try that sometime.
