ROAD CLOSED

08 Apr

Wait a minute! What is this Road Closed sign doing here?

This is really bad.

It’s not even a road.

That’s the entrance to my trails!

Oh, this must be why they closed it.

They didn’t want my person to make me wait while she took flower pictures.

But she did it anyway.

***

Well, I guess it’s a good thing dogs are still allowed on the Road Closed.

Because I found out why it’s closed.

My puddle’s back!

It’s been missing for a very long time.

Those Road Closed people must have not wanted anyone else to find it.

I wonder if the water tastes as good as last time it was here.

What Did I do with My Summer Vacation?

16 Aug

This is ridiculous! My last post right before this one has snow in it.

Right now it’s so hot that if snow showed up it would sizzle away.

So I’m sneaking on the computer while my person isn’t looking and writing a new post.

Besides, today is my blogiversary.

Four years of blogging.

Well, it would have been four years if I’d actually been blogging the last few months.

So, since I haven’t posted since the snow was on the ground, and the kids who live near me are already back in school I thought I’d do a “What did I do with my Summer Vacation” kind of post.

Oh. What did I do?

Oh yeah. I got to hang out some with my little buddy.

It wasn’t me. It’s his fault we’re in jail.

***

And my puddle came back!

And the tadpoles came with it.

I’ve been watching those tadpoles grow for awhile, but for some reason my person won’t let me get in the puddle with them. No fair!

Oh yeah, and there were those two times in the dog hotel when my person went off without me.

But the best time I had all summer was when my person’s friend invited her to go to the creek with her – and then she invited me along too.

There was only one problem.

Next time we need to go to a creek that has smaller sticks.

Transformed Puddle

02 Mar

I made my person go for a walk with me in the rain today.

It was fun. There were streams everywhere.

But I was so startled by one stream that my person actually let me do a blog post for the first time in a long time.

Well, maybe it was because her class got cancelled because there’s snow where her school is.

Anyway, here it is!

My puddle is no longer a puddle.

It has transformed into a stream.

On second thought, I think it’s a bathtub.

It’s got a natural sponge – and bubbles.

Do you think this puddle will get me clean?

The Almost Really Good Day

02 Jan

Today was a really good day.

Well, it started out good.

My buddy came over for a visit.

We had a great time playing catch – but then, he decided my younger person’s Legos were more interesting.

So I had to drop my ball in the Lego box.

***

That must have gotten his attention…

…because after that he let me take him for a walk.

In the snow.

I don’t know anything about icicles, but this snow sure tastes good.

***

But then my buddy got out of control.

He sent a truck after me.

But a picture doesn’t do this horrible truck justice.

Warning: The following video contains explicit language –

oh, never mind. Only my dog friends will understand what I’m saying.

My buddy deserved some real punishment for this.

So I locked him in dog jail.

And for good measure, I locked Gizmo in there with him.

After all, Gizmo used to be my buddy’s cat before he came to live at my house.

***

Hey, wait a minute!

How did I end up in here too?

A dog just can’t win around here.

The Best Way to End the Year

31 Dec

Finally, my person is letting me post again.

I posed for so many pictures today that she didn’t know what else to do.

Anyway, this was the best way to end the year – and the only time all year I had snow to play in.

One of my favorite things to do is drag a Frisbee through the snow.

Now where did that Frisbee go?

Here it is!

I found it.

Hey Gizmo, come out here!

This is so much fun!

Are you serious, Gizmo?

There is no way I’m coming back in the house.

Well, maybe – if I can go out the other door and head to my trails.

Hey, who is this invading my front yard?

Looks like some kind of alien or something.

All I can say is, you’d better not be here when I get back –

-or I’m turning you yellow.

Speaking of yellow, there’s got to be some yellow snow around here.

They tell me it carries the best messages.

Nope.

There’s no yellow snow here either.

These snow creatures must have eaten it all.

Hey, what happened to my puddle?

It’s changed.

I guess not everybody likes snow the way I do.

I hope you pop out of it soon, puddle.

Are you coming people?

Come on!

Don’t worry about that puddle.

It’ll get over it.

Finally!

Okay, throw the ball.

I’m ready.

I see that ball.

C’mon, throw it!

What do you mean, our walk is over?

Happy New Year everybody!

The Box

11 Nov

Hey person, you want to take my picture for why?

You won’t help me post on my blog anymore, so what good is my picture going to do you?

I don’t think I want to pose for you.

.

Oh, wait! What?

That box is for me?

Now I get it!

That box has treats in it – for me!

I got these because you needed to order a little bit more so you could get free shipping?

You’re so strange, person.

I don’t care how I get my treats – free shipping or not.

As long as I get them.

There’s just one problem with these treats.

They’re still in the package.

I’m having trouble sitting still waiting for them.

Now you’re talking!

But I hope you don’t mind if I don’t sit still until after I’ve eaten my treat.

NaNoWoofMo is Here!

05 Nov

I finally figured out a way to get my person to help me with another blog post.

And I didn’t even have to have an adventure to do it.

Because another dog is in the middle of an adventure.

You see, my friends at Rocco’s House invited me to take part in NaNoWoofMo for the second year in a row. It’s great fun and any pet blogger – even cats – can take part by picking a day to write a chapter. There’s still lots of days open so stop by Rocco’s House and leave a comment if you’d like to take part. All the links to each day’s chapter will be there too.

The story started at Rocco’s House, then continued on with my buddy Kuruk, travelled over to Hailey and Zaphod’s blog and now here it is on mine.

So here goes:

I could hear the hollow sound as someone stepped on a loose board before I noticed the silhouette of a man on the porch. He held a long stick by his side.

“It’s those coyotes again,” the man said.

I watched as the man raised that stick and pointed it directly at me.

Crack!

The sound deafened me and at the same time something buried itself into the ground near my front paw, raising a pile of dust.

I ran deeper into the shadows.

The man shook his head and went back inside.

The smell of bacon had grown even stronger as it had escaped out the once opened door. My tummy rumbled.

As I lay in the dark wondering how to get that bacon, a sharp pain moved up my back, beginning from the area where I had cut myself on the fence.

I yelped.

***

Oh no, we have to wait till tomorrow to find out what happens next when Swami Zoe takes over. I can’t wait to read more of the story.

Wait a minute. Isn’t Swami Zoe a cat?
