Entertaining

Mom and me are at Amber and Nick's house until Monday...we've been here since Thursday.  I'm not really scared as I look in this picture...I just didn't want mom to take my picture.  She forgot to brush me and I don't look as nice as usual.  OK, maybe I was a little scared..kids weren't home from school yet on Thursday and I didn't know if mom was leaving me alone or what was up.

Once we got the kids from school I was excited and we're keeping the kids entertained!

 At least I'm doing my part!  Seems everyone loves to hide food or treats and make dogs and cats hunt for their food.  what's up with that!  I don't live in the wild...why should I have to "find" my food!  Just put my treat in my mouth or food in my bowl...but nooooooo...they like to make me find a treat!  Geezzz

So needless to say, I get tired!!And this is what I think about the whole "watching the kids"...it's exhausting for a dog!  Grandma's do lots better!

All alone am I.....

Gee....no one will play with me...mom and dad are either busy packing (ok, so really mom is packing....dad plays golf!), or they are out to eat without me!!!

I guess we are heading back to the house in Michigan...I don't really know where we live...I just go with mom and dad where ever they go!

I know I miss my dog friends back home...my BFF, Cody, and his brother Logan.  And I only met Brody, the grand kids new dog, so we'll have to get to know each other this summer.  I guess he's pretty big - over 90 lbs.!  But he'll have to learn that I'm a little dog and he's only to play with dogs when his owners say it's ok.  I will have to learn to walk with him and to know when to stay away.

So until we get home, I guess I'll just have to lay here and look sad...just so mom and dad will play with me at night!!  Mom is still walking me twice a day!  Good thing...she's been eating out so much I think the walk does her good!

Here she goes again!

Geezzzz....you never know what my mom is going to do.  Today she took me back to the vets just because I was having, what she thought, was a 'personal' issue!  So what if I decide I want to lick myself!  It's my body and I can do what I want!  NOT!  Guess mom thinks it's not so lady like to keep myself clean...anyway, off to the Dr. we go (again!)...turns out they SHAVED ME!!!  I mean really SHAVED me!!!  Then she tells mom to use baby wipes on me when I go potty!  REALLY!  Baby wipes!

So now we come back from the vets and mom wonders why I'm running around the house and sitting on my butt all the time!  you would too if you were 'naked' down there!  Talk about weird feeling!

So mom being the enterprising one of the family, decided the only way to keep me from sitting or 'licking' myself some more (because it now itches 'down there'!!)  was to either buy an E collar (whatever the heck that is! - I don't even like the sound of it!) or....she put this t-shirt on me!

Yea...for some reason, 'she' thought the T-shirt would fit over my hind legs and then knotted at my waste!  YEA!!!  OK, so it does keep me from 'licking' but REALLY...a T-shirt!!!  REALLY!!!

I am so embarrassed...but truth be told my 'bottom' does feel better...guess mom's do know best...I just wish she'd come up with other ways that wouldn't embarrass me as much!  Geeezzzzzz

Friends

I know it's been awhile since I posted but mom has been so busy sewing that she hasn't left her laptop on for me to type (I can't use her phone to post...keys are way to small for me!).   Anyway, the other day some folks mom and dad know called to say they wanted to stop over with their dog...she just came from the beauty shop....her name is Fancy and she certainly is that..

I really like Fancy...mainly because she's white like me and smaller than me!

Mom said Fancy used to be a show dog and has her 'championship' but then she just made babies all the time after her showing.  Her mom and dad adopted her over a year ago and  Mom said she remembers how shy Fancy was when she found her new home...but she's not shy now!  She's one happy dog!!

It's hard to see our tails because we were both wagging them so much they are a blur in this picture!  I sure hope Fancy can come over again sometime and play.  We have a fenced in yard so it's safe for both of us.  Maybe mom and dad will kidnap Fancy and bring her home with us!!  I would like that!  I could be her big sister!

Note from the groomer

My mom thought this was really funny when she took me to the groomers the last time!  I don't get much of it but since it made mom happy, I thought it might make some of you smile too!

Love my cousins!

Just spent a few days with Sherry and Remy!  They belong to my mom's sister, Mary Ann.

 Remy is my boy friend...he's so handsome and loves to play!!!  I had so much fun 'cause we went for lots of walks!!!  And my mom's sister fed me lots of dog cookies!  She's the best!!
This is me and Remy playing.....I miss him already!

A conversation with Grace!

Well, you don't look sick to me!

OK, just ignore me and don't answer me!

Fine....mom still loves me more than you!
