Being a teacher...

Moms and I met up wiff my Auntie Sandra and her boy, MonTaj at va park.  It were a real nice night out!  MonTaj is going to take his Canine Good Citizen test soon, and moms and Auntie S were talking all 'bout it and practicing some fings.  I helped be va teacher, cuz I have my CGC and am a good boy!! 

Here's a picture of me at va wetness maker fing (moms says it's called "fountain").... it sprayed va wetness on me, so I stuck my tongue out, hahaha!!


Vis is MonTaj... he are real handsun and real smartness, too!  Auntie Sandra 'dopted him from IDR+ when he were just a baby puppy!!!!  Now he are all growed up :-) He goes to school wiff her for sniffing stuff and also 'bedience! 








Monty also has a real cool neckwace, wiff peace signs and rainbows on it!  I real like vat neckwace!!!







After we practiced some 'bedience stuff, we all sat around and talked and everyfing.  Vere was awot of good stuff on va ground to eat, but moms kept saying "out of your mouf!" so ven 'Taj and I just hung out.  Aren't we 'dorable???


 

Before I knew it, we had to go back home.  I jumped up on va picnic table and snugglered wiff my Auntie for a wittle bit.  She always knows just what to say and where to scratch my head!!!



Ven I had to snuggler wiff moms, so she wouldn't be jealousness.  I real love my moms!!!

Have a good day everybody, OK???

Being a fire chief

When I was still a baby puppy, moms used to take me for long walks all va time.  One morning, we were almost home from our walk and we heard a real loudness BANG noise.  Moms said "oh no, oh no" and ven I wooked and saw vis car all banged up and ven vere was anover car banged up and broken pieces everywhere.  Moms and I ran over vere and a girl got out of one car and was crying and had bleeding on her!  Moms told her not to move too much and va girl sat on va curb by side of va road.  Moms made sure va powice were cawed and ven we sat wiff vis girl who was so sad and it made me sad.  So I got into her lap, real gentleness like and she hugged me and hugged me.  I even got a wittle of her bleed on me, but I didn't car cuz she was so upset.  I kissed her face and made va tears go all away!  Ven we heard va most awesome noise ever!  Moms calls vem "sirems".  Woo woo wooooooooooooo!!!!  My whole hiney was wagging cuz vat noise was so AWESOME!  A big huge truck came and people got out of it to help va girl and va over car people.  Moms said "look at the firetruck, Bogie!"  I could hardly contain my small self!  Moms talked to all va people for a bit and helped va girl get in anover truck with sirens, called ambulance.  Moms and I started walking home, but I just HAD to check out va fire truck, so I jumped in as we walked passed.  It was SO cool! Ven a man walked up and said "hey, what are you doing in here??"  I could feel moms get nervous, cuz my weash was on and it was trembling.  Moms was 'pologizing to va fire chief man, but ven he said "You look like a real good boy.  Are you a good boy??"  I jumped up and tried to kiss him, and we giggled.  I begged him to make va sirems go off again, and he did!  He said I could be a fireman!

Ven my Auntie Sue sent me my own fire chief hat!!!  OMG!  It's my favorite hat, ever!!!

Kill va bed, kill it dead :-(

Sometines, moms lets me, Cals, and Sarah Farah Bearah pway downstairs by ourselves.  I mean, Cals and I are always free in va house, but SFB isn't cuz she still makes va potty business inside - GAWD!  So sometines moms and I take her outside and ven, if she are good girl, she can be running around wiff us inside.  Moms did vat wast night and went upstairs to do somefing.  She said "everyone behave!" and so I did.  But va girls made up a new game called "Kill va bed, kill it dead!".  Vey asked me to bite a hole in one of va beds, so I did.  VEN vey told me veir pwan.  OMG!!!  I was duped!  Vey started ripping out all va stuffing from va bed and put it all over va kitchen!

Moms came downstairs and said "it's awful quiet in here.... what the heck?  What are you dogs doing???"  So I ran over to her to 'splain vat vese girls MADE me break va bed and ven VEY killed it!!!

Dads came in after moms cweaned up.  I snugglered wiff him, hoping he didn't know what happened.  But he always knows and I can't keep my mouf shut.  He told me not to let va girls peer pressure me like vat, cuz he knows I'm such a good boy.  I have va best dads and moms ever!

SFB was real saddness when moms frew out all va stuffing.  She were trying to pull it outta moms hands, haha!!

So we are down to 1 nice bed and 1 bed wiff a big hole in it and not much stuffing.  We used to have a dozen beds, but vese girls keep killing vem :-(  It's hard having cuckoo bean sisters.
