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.

Reasons to Go Out

16 Oct

I go out in the yard for a number of reasons.

Sometimes it’s to do my business.

But that’s not always the case.

Sometimes it’s nice outside – or there are good smells out there – and I just want to hang out in the yard for awhile.

Other times my people tell me to go outside.

And when I come back in when I’m told they give me a treat.

I like that treat thing.

So sometimes I ask to go out…

…so I can come back in again and get a treat.

Hey people, I’m ready to come in now.

Are you gonna give me a treat?

What do you mean, no?

How about now?

I’m in my best treat pose.

Come on. I came back in the house, didn’t I?

That’s got to be good for something.

What’s by my Door?

02 Oct

When I got home from taking my person for a walk on my trails I found something by the door.

I would have picked it up and brought it in the house, but it was a little high for me to reach.

Well, I could have reached it – it would have been kind of like counter surfing – but I get in trouble when I get caught doing that, and with my person standing right next to me I thought I’d better not.

So I didn’t.

.

I let my person bring it into the house.

It has my name on it?

This is exciting!

What is it? What is it?

Come on person, hurry up!

Open it for me.

Treats!?

I got treats?

This is the best day ever!

Hey, I know where these came from.

They came from my friend Rumpy.

He said he was going to send me some more.

Woo woo! Rumpy’s the best!

But there’s one thing wrong with these.

They don’t do me any good inside the package.

Now we’re talking!

A New Garden

23 Sep

As I walked along on my trails minding my own business I noticed something new.

It was in a little area where people sometimes hang out.

The place where people stack rocks up into high piles.

Only I guess they got tired of stacking rocks.

Now they’ve decided to plant a garden.

.

I decided to check it out.

Those sunflowers are tall and easy to see.

But maybe there’s more garden around here.

Maybe someone planted some vegetables.

Some really tasty vegetables.

I like vegetables.

I’m drooling just thinking about it.

***

Wait. This isn’t fair.

It’s torture to start drooling and find nothing tasty to satisfy that drool.

There’s nothing here person.

Let’s go home.

I know you’ve got vegetables treats for me there.

Package from Rumpy

19 Sep

This is so cool!

A package came for me today.

For me!

Not for my person, or for my younger person.

Not even for the cats.

It came for me.

My friend Rumpy had a contest on his blog awhile back.

I entered it and I won.

I won!

So what’s inside this package?

.

I can’t wait to find out.

Hey wait a minute.

There’s nothing in here but a bunch of red, white, and blue stuff.

What would I want with that?

I give up!

What am I gonna do with this package?

And why would Rumpy send me this stuff anyway?

I bet he doesn’t spend his time playing with colored, crinkled paper.

Wait, what?

There’s something else in this box?

What is it?

Treats?!!!

This is awesome!

Rumpy, you do know what I like after all.

Thanks Rumpy.

A Good Day Gets Better

12 Sep

I headed out on my trails, enjoying my afternoon walk, and thinking that it can’t get better than this.

Well, maybe if my person had brought some treats along it would have been better.

But it was pretty good.

And suddenly it did get better.

.

Because not one, but two of my girlfriends came running up to me.

I hadn’t seen them in awhile so it was a great reunion.

And for once I was happy that I hadn’t had any treats.

Because treats might have affected my senses.

There’s nothing better than Eau de Dog.

Who’s at the Door?

07 Aug

Hey person, someone’s ringing the doorbell.

Hurry up. Open the door.

I’m sure it’s someone coming to visit me.

Someone who wants to give me loves and treats.

I’m drooling already, thinking about those treats I’m gonna get.

Hurry person!

Whoever it is won’t wait forever.

***

I must be famous!

I don’t even know the person at the door.

He must have heard about me from my blog and now he wants to meet me face to face.

Person, why aren’t you letting him in?

Why are you keeping me back from the door?

Are you jealous that he didn’t bring you treats? Because I’m sure he brought some for me.

Come on, let me through.

***

What?

He’s gone?

You let him go?

He saw that I was here didn’t he?

Why did you let him go before I got my treats?

I don’t get it.

You are jealous, aren’t you?

You didn’t want me getting any treats when you weren’t.

He’s what!?

He’s running for City Council and he stopped by to ask us to vote for him?

That’s pretty nervy of him.

I’m not voting for anybody who doesn’t bring me treats.

Toys not Treats

16 Jul

We got a new refrigerator at my house.

That really doesn’t mean much to me.

It fits in the same spot that the old one did.

My food still doesn’t go into the fridge so I don’t know why we have one at all.

What does matter to me is what was on top of the old fridge.

My person had to clean the top of it off before they took it away.

If she’d given me all those treats she keeps up there she would have had a lot less cleaning to do.

But what she did give me were the toys she stashed up there.

I don’t know why she doesn’t want to give me all the toys right away when she gets them.

She can always buy more when I chew them up.

***

So I might not have gotten extra treats out of this refrigerator switching, but at least I got some toys.

Well, except for that purple bunny.

You see, my person cleaned her room out too.

I can’t wait to see what happens when she cleans the rest of the house.

Come on, person. You gave it to me.

Now pick it up and toss it.

Wrong People

04 Apr

Last time I went to the vet I got the wrong people.

I don’t know what was wrong with them, but the usual people – the ones who usually take me into the room and stick things up my butt and stuff…

Well, the usual people give me lots of treats.

The whole time I’m in that room they’re giving me treats.

And loves.

Lots of loves.

That’s why I like going to the vet.

But the people I got last time I was there didn’t do that.

No treats – no loves.

Well, at least not until everything was over.

Those jars up there – I bet that’s where all the treats are.

When those vet people come back in here they’d better empty those jars and give me all the treats.

***

I thought I was getting lucky for a minute, but they must have grabbed the wrong jar because what they pulled out of it wasn’t a treat.

Next time I go to the vet I’d better get those treat and loves people back –

Or I’m going hunting for a new vet.

Best Friends

18 Mar

Last week my people left me in the dog hotel and went travelling without me.

I’m still pretty upset that they didn’t take me with them, but at least they brought me this bandanna – and some treats too.

They visited a really cool place, and it was only by chance that they stopped by.

But I think it was the best place they went to.

Here’s how they ended up there.

They were driving into Kanab, Utah and the whole road was closed for construction.

They didn’t even have one lane open so cars could eventually get through – nope, they closed that road down.

But right near where my people had to stop was the entrance to the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, so they went there.

And they said it was the coolest place.

I know it’s got to be since they bought me this bandanna and some treats there.

Best Friends Animal Sanctuary is a no kill shelter and it’s nothing like the dog jail my people found me in.

The animals have lots of room to run and play and they get lots of good care and loves too.

All kinds of animals live there. Everything from horses, birds, rabbits, cats and dogs and…

Pigs. This is Rupert.

My person also got to meet Yoyo.

Yoyo doesn’t look very friendly in this picture, but my person said when she held out her hand to Yoyo, she came over and kissed it and turned out to be one of the most loving dogs she’d met.

Hey, wait a minute. What about me?

***

That place must be really cool though because even the wild animals hang out there.
