Mutt and Jeff

I feel like such a shrimp next to him. He is so big and strong. I want to play with him but sometimes he plays too rough and I get scared. When he comes after me, I run. You see, he is big but I run really fast in our house. I can fit into really small spaces and hide under tables are behind the big people and he can't get to me. I hope I grow up to be just like him!

They go off and LEAVE us!

We love the big people! We do our best to show them how very much we love them. As soon as we hear them we wait anxiously by the front door to greet them.
But still, they go off and leave us!
We really don't understand why they would do that.
But they always come back.
We love them!

I just don't get it!

Today, I am letting my buddy Naki write this blog. He has been having a tough time and needs to share his feelings.

I've been here for awhile now. It was strange at first but now I think it's pretty much the best thing that ever happened to me. I used to live outside and just look in to were the people lived but know, I live inside with the people and look outdoors. It's amazing...really!
I have this new friend too. She's little and has really short legs. I have to laugh when we go walking cause she has a really hard time keeping up. I'm just strolling along and she is running to keep up with me. HeHeHe
I keep getting yelled out today by the female person for doing the exact same thing that the little short leg creature does. I saw her jump up into the female person's lap and I put my paws on her to jump up too and got yelled at. Really! And, the short leg creature just smiled at me!
Later, I jumped up on the window ledge and once again, got yelled at for doing what squirt did. It's annoying.
I'm just saying.
I love living here but things are just not that fair.
I just had to get that off my chest.

An exciting adventure

The other day we, that would be the Big One and me, were just laying around minding our own business. Actually, I was sitting in the window sill looking outside. That is my favorite spot in the whole house because the Big One can't get to me and I can enjoy all the things going on outdoors without having to look over my shoulder to see what the Big One is up to. He likes to try to sneak up on me and bite my neck but I'm way to quick for him! So, anyway, all was quiet until I saw the momma and sister drive up. I was so excited that I ran up to the front door to greet them. Of course, the Big One has to do EVERYTHING I do so he followed. I heard the key turn in the lock and the door came open.
I waited patiently for them to come into the house and then there was a REALLY loud noise and she turned her back on the door and walked a few steps away from the door. I couldn't believe it!
I looked at the Big One and he looked back at me and in a split second we made a mad dash for it!
FREEDOM!
Oh, man was it our lucky day! We were out before they knew what to do and the Big One was running really fast. Then, I realized that we were not alone. There were some other dogs running too. WOW! The Big One was chasing all those other dogs. Boy was I glad that I was with him because they didn't look too friendly. When I got closer I could see that they were dirty and smelly and they looked mean. One of them turned around and tried to bite me but the Big One chased him away.
Then, I heard that sound. You know that high pitched sound that is always followed by a yummy treat. Yeah! I had to stop and get my breath. I'm thinking I may be a bit out of shape. I listened again and then I was sure that my best friend was calling me and there would be a yummy treat if I obeyed. I was running as fast as I could and the Big One passed me up. I hate when that happens. I can't help that my legs are really short.
We got to go play outside, run and almost fight with some really mean dogs AND get a nice treat.
It was a great day!

My best friend

He just appeared one day. Yeah, one day I was all alone, princess of the castle and the next day, he was there. Towering over me. I wasn't so sure how I felt about him at first. It was definitely not love at first sight. I don't even know if I believe in that. But truthfully, he just appeared.
She brought him in.
The one that loves me and cares for me.
I'm not going to lie to you, at first I was a little hurt and confused. But soon I realized that he was a friend and there was plenty of love to go around.
Yes, she still loves me. I can still sleep with her...when I've had a bath. She still picks me up and loves me and talks to me like there is no one else around.
I.Love.it!

He has been here for a few weeks so I guess he is here to stay. We have gotten to be best friends. We eat together and we play together. I like to follow him and be near him all the time.

Sometimes when we are especially good, we get a treat.
His treats are BIG. I mean, they are bigger than me. But I get a treat that is just my size. I just have to watch out because he will come and take my treat when I am not looking.
I did hear her say that he can't have those big treats anymore. Something about a tummy ache. That's what he gets for stealing mine, too!

My favorite Spot

It's been an exhausting day. I've chased squirrels and that pesky cat that lives next door. I have sat by the window looking at all the birds and the watching the cars and people go by. I played a very strenuous game of catch with the momma. I stayed in the kitchen and guarded momma as she was busy making food.

Then, in the middle of the night my tummy was upset. I was sick. It was yucky. I couldn't go back to sleep.

Yes, a long day.

I'm just going to kick back and go to sleep right on top of the daddy's stinky work shoes.

AH, life is good!

Strutting my stuff

I got a bath today and now I am showing off for all to see! I'm clean, soft and looking good!
