4th of July

Wednesday, July 8, 2009
I am very sleepy and lonely today. For the past two days I received a lot of attention, love and play time from my Mommy's friends. Her best friends came to visit for the weekend and I used my charm and deceptive brown eyes to lure them away from her. Though, that didn't seem to stop her from locking me in my crate to put around downtown all day or ditch me with Daddy when they went to the park. I'm still feeling burned by that. However, when they were home, they petted me, played "tug," played hide-and-seek, and chased me around the apartment. There was never a moment of rest. That's the best weekend ever!

But now they are gone. I'm sad because there is no one to play games with me and when I try to play with Mommy I fall asleep. I was so tired I didn't even get off the couch when Mommy went into the kitchen. You know I'm tired when I am not interested in food. I'll just spend the next few days recuperating!

Although I miss him, I think I like it when Daddy travels out-of-town leaving me home with Mommy. You know why? Because then I'm the boss! If you're a dog reading this quick thinking about your rawhide bone-you need to know this.

When Daddy is gone, I can get away with a lot more. That means I can try to dig out dryer sheets from the laundry, or tissues out of the trash. And when my Mommy is trying to quietly read on the couch, I can bark, bark, bark and bark until she relentlessly gets up to get me a treat. As if getting me a treat quiets me down again...Then, when she gets curled up on the couch again, that's when I drop a blanket in her lap and growl and bark at her in the bossiest form of barking till she picks it up and plays tug.

When Daddy is home I don't away with as much. I can't bark my bossy barks at my Mommy, although I try. When she gets tired of it, she'll look at Daddy and tell him to deal with it. Her mean growls don't do anything for me!

So last night, we played tug and she shared a bite of her cookie. I got the cookie because I made her feel guilty for tormenting me with the new Peticure. So the lesson is: when the boss is away, do everything you want and get everything you want before the boss returns. It helps that Mommy is such a pushover and I can make her feel guilty very easily.
