Spring!

I love this weather...we have been outside, playing in the yard, almost all day! Dad is driving around on the 4 wheeler with this big, round thing behind him...heard mom say it was doing a good job flattening out the yard? What does that mean..

Anyway, we went outside to play, and I was yelling at the neighbor kids playing across the street, and Mean Mom put the bark collar on me. WTH!!! Doesn't she know I am the only one who can keep the neighbors in line? They can't keep walking by our house and playing in their yards like they have been. Someone needs to set some limits for them! Boy, she doesn't realize how out of control they are going to get if I can't talk to them.

So, I spent the afternoon laying in the sun on the back deck. Boy, this is a rough life for a dog!

Walk Today?

Sadie feels better...it has stopped raining, although the sun still is not out. I really want to go for a walk today. I love this time of year, not too hot, not too cold. Perfect walking weather. Maybe Mom and Dad will walk today since Sadie feels better.

Sadie Doesn't Feel Well

What's up with this? Sadie has been throwing up all day, so all we get with 53 degrees and sunshine is playing through the yard? I want to go for a walk!!! I know Sadie doesn't feel well, and really, I feel bad, but I want to go out and explore! What is up with that! It is wonderful outside!! Come on Sadie, get with it!

OK, and what is with this Wii thing? Dad has already hit Katie and Zach with it? Why is it so fun? I want to play too!!!

I think they figured it out!

I went for a walk today, just me and Mom...and I was having so much fun, I forgot to pull on the leash and pretend like I was choking...do you think she knows I was faking it the other day...

Mom said it was cold out, so we only walked for a mile or so. Sadie was at the groomers, so it was just me and MOM...that was awesome! I rarely get one on one time. But I was so excited, there were so many smells, the neighbor dogs were trying to get me to come an play... I forgot to pretend that I cannot stand the leash....darn!

I think Mom and Dad are on to me!

Going for a Walk!

I absolutely love going for walks! OMG! The smells that are out there in the world! Mom and Dad have been taking us for walks the past couple of nights, and it has been awesome! Tonight it was Sadie, Lucie and me and we had so much fun! (Although I did feel bad for Sam but Mom said he couldn't afford to use up the extra calories) Mom left Sam a bowl of ice instead!

There are so many kids and dogs in our neighborhood. They come over and pet me and I just love it! Then, while we were walking, Sadie found a piece of Easter chocolate! I was so jealous! But Dad yelled, Mom took it out of her mouth and so I figured she must be in some kind of trouble. Glad it wasn't me, cuz Dad said it wasn't good for her...

The only problem is, they make us wear these things called leashes???!!! I hate it! It makes me choke and gag and I can't go where I really want to go. What is their problem? Tonight, the neighbor dog was walking behind us and growling and I couldn't go and bark back at him. Besides, it makes me choke...what is up with that? Why can't I walk where I want to walk, life just isn't fair!!

Spring is here!

Signs of Spring are all around...I can see grass, Sam is uncovering more poop, Lucie is finding the bird seed that has been hiding all winter under the snow and Sadie has a new spring in her step, wanting to play ball and chasing the squirrels into the woods. I love this time of year! It stays light later, and the weather is warmer, but I really love the wind! The way it blows my ears back, sends leaves racing across the yard, and just brings all these wonderful smells into the yard for me to check out! Spring is Here!

This is the Life!

Boy, this is the life! It may be cold outside, but laying here, safe and snug inside, the sun feels really great! The only problem is that I have to share the sunshine with all these other animals! I wonder why Dad and Mom don't like to lay here with us? I wouldn't lick their faces, really, I wouldn't...but I can't promise what Sam and Lucie would do. So, I decided to let Katie lay with us. She said she would clean my ears if I let her have Prime Spot in the sunshine! What a deal! I think I got the better of her, but she doesn't realize it. The only problem is that Zach (the tough cat) decided he wants to lay with us too. He is really pushy! How dare he think he can take up some of my sunshine!

Dad took us outside today, it was a lot colder out there than it looked. He cleaned up some of the yard (wouldn't let Sam help!), but got mad at me when I kept warning the neighbors not to come to close! They really should know just how tough I am. I do have a house to protect, you know...
