Invasion!

On Friday my person rescued me from the dog hotel – I mean, she came and forced me away. I was having so much fun I didn’t want to leave.

I got home and looked forward to a nice, long nap when I noticed something was afoot.

Cats.

Scratchy had invited Gizmo over for a sleepover.

Remember Gizmo?

So now I had two cats to put up with.

I wandered around the house looking for a comfy, peaceful place to lie down where there weren’t any cats, when I saw him.

Gizmo brought his friend Tiberius with him.

The cats were having a party.

And there was no holding them back.

They took over my kennel.

Gizmo, don’t try to deny it. I know you were checking out my dog jail kennel.

***

They took over the floor.

Then they took over the couch.

Hey, that’s my couch!

***

They tried to steal my snake.

Gizmo, get away from my snake!

Not you too, Tiberius!

***

The cats even took over the counter.

Scratchy, can you take your cat party outside?

Gizmo, what are you up to now?

Oh, no. Don’t you dare invite another cat to your party.

Can somebody please help me!?

Dog Hotel Paintings – Day 6

15 Mar

Day six at the dog hotel and another photo turned into a painting.

This is the only kind of painting my person really does. Here I am in watercolor. But she didn’t really paint me. She just had a little fun on the computer.

P.S. I finally made it home from the dog hotel, but I’m resting up from my vacation before I go on some more adventures. I came home and found out there’s been some real mischief going on here though. Just wait till I get to the bottom of this.

Dog Hotel Paintings – Day 1

10 Mar

Do you believe it?

I got all excited when my person told me to get in the car this morning.

I should have suspected something when I saw the suitcases.

I was hoping to end up somewhere adventurous and fun – but here I am at the dog hotel.

And I can’t even tell you about my adventures here, because if my person finds out that I have fun sometimes she might make me stay longer.

And I don’t like it here that much.

So here’s the deal.

A couple weeks ago my person went to a camera meeting and they had a drawing for some photo programs.

And my person won!

She won a program called Snap Art that makes photos look like paintings or drawings.

So you get to see me in art all week.

It looks like my person spent hours with her brushes, but she really only spent a few minutes on the computer.

So here’s the first one.

This is me in impasto (a technique where the paint is laid on thickly).

Butterflies and Birds

08 Mar

What a terrible day!

My person put on her shoes and I thought she was going to take me somewhere.

But she put me in dog jail instead.

And she left.

She does that all the time but this was different.

I just knew she was going somewhere special.

And she didn’t take me.

Her camera got to go though.

Somehow I think that camera is more important than I am.

So if you want to see what her camera was up to you can look down below.

But don’t tell my person that my younger person came home early and let me out of dog jail.

And don’t tell her that I got to go for a walk with Toby.

I said don’t tell.

***

Do you believe my person wanted to take pictures of butterflies when she could have taken pictures of me?

She even found an angel butterfly.

I’m the perfect angel. Where are the pictures of me?

But to make it even worse, she had to rub it in with some pesky birds.

I think I’ll go over to Toby’s house.

Girlfriend Hunting

07 Mar

Hmm.

Something tells me it’s girlfriend looking season.

I haven’t seen any of my girlfriends in a long time.

I wonder if any of them are out here.

But I’m not the only one looking for a girlfriend.

At least we won’t be competing with each other.

I don’t think my kind of girls will care about that guy – and vice versa.

Normally the quail around here hang out on the ground hiding under the bushes.

But this time of year some of the male quails (did I just make a rhyme?) hang out in trees and make a loud calling sound.

I guess they think they’ll attract the girls that way.

I’m not sure what a girl would see in that, but to each her own.

Maybe they don’t get any girls because sometimes they’re hanging out in trees like this way into the summer.

But this one might be a little smarter than most.

He’s staying closer to the ground – unlike some who get in the top of a tall tree.

And now I know he’s figured it out.

He’s finally looking down at where the girls are hanging out.

Maybe I could learn something from him.

I’ve got to go figure out where my girlfriends have gone.

Unwelcome Visitor

06 Mar

Some creatures are so nervy.

I was minding my own business today, being the perfect dog that I am, when a squirrel took over my tree and started chattering.

Those pesky squirrels!

Not only is that squirrel hanging out in my tree, but he’s trying to taunt me with food.

I see that treat he’s hiding in his mouth.

He knows I see it too.

I know how those squirrels think.

See, that squirrel’s got a peanut in his mouth.

And he’s not even going to try to hide it anymore.

He’s going to flaunt it.

He’s hoping I’ll get upset and try to go after him for his peanut.

But I’ve got other plans up my sleeve.

You might as well give up you pesky squirrel.

I’ve got your number.

You’re done for now.

***

So just to show that squirrel that I mean business I’m going to get my own treats.

I went out into the kitchen…

And I ate the squirrel.
