I was right

My boy left today. He took me for a walk, played with me for a little bit and then poof. Well not exactly poof, he got the big pack and his boots ( I really wanted to tear up the boots, but well, I'm a good girl, not.)  Anyway, my dad got all sad and my mom was like "he has to go so he can finish and get back home", though I really think she was sad too. I think she was being a stoat, or some word like that, but she does not want my boy to be up north in the winter winds. To make mom happy when she came home I laid on her feet, just she knows she is loved. When dad comes home I will let him give me hugs and belly rubs. Good times, but I hate being right.

Happy Happy Sad Sad

My boy who is walking the AT has been home for a week, yeah me. But everyday he leaves for several hours, which means my mom leaves for several hours and comes back without him. Then she leaves again and picks him up. One day it took forever, for them to come home. I was soooo worried, did something happen, did they abandon me, all these thoughts were in my head. It was dark when they got back and all seemed well. I ran and ran and ran I was so happy and excited to see them. But I feel a disturbance in the force. My boy is getting the big thing ready with all the boxes and bags and I don't know what else. I think he is getting ready to leave me again. I am thinking I won't see him for a bit. I am not sure I like this coming and going. If he leaves I am going to be sooo sad. WOOWOOWOO.

Summer Lazies

It is summer and I a mostly black dog have no time to deal with 80+ degrees. I go on a walk with my mom early in the morning before it gets too hot and feel all groggy when I come home. We do not even do a long walk. I drink two bowls of water and find the coolest place to sleep. I hate water so though my mom suggests I cool down with a bath or hose, I run away. So while my mom was watering plants, I ran inside, but I really wanted to be outside because my buddy was barking, just couldn't risk an accidental hose squirt (that is what my mom says-accidental my eye teeth.) Anyway, I had a bath yesterday. I am hoping for some cool evenings, so that mom will change her walk time.  Or better yet give me a two walks morning and night. For right now I am just going to sleep under the table. Pleasant dreams.

SUMMER

Schools out forever, well until that thing called Fall. But this means my mommy gets to stay home with me, walk me and not be as tired. I am so happy because I get to sleep in. When she works I have to get up at 5:30, but she let me sleep today. Of course, I have been waiting for her to take me on a walk, she has shoes on and looks like she wants to, but we have not left yet. I keep opening the back door and standing there. When she comes to the door, I run to the fence. You would think she would get the hint. She says I have to wait as she is waiting on someone to fix something. Not sure what but they are late and she is getting mad. I hope she doesn't wait too long because I hate walking in the heat. I'll let you know if I get to go walking, my favorite thing to do, besides tear up socks and gloves.
