This is How We Roll

 

Yes, this is how we ride.  We're not in some tricked out van like some people drive.

 

This is the Petpalooza truck Aunt Pat saw at a craft show she did last weekend.  Sarah, Freddy and I prefer a more...understated vehicle.  Who needs a big slobbery head on ones car when you have overwhelming cuteness inside?

We've seen the stares, and the smiles.  Sarah ducked down in the seat when we passed a police car that had stopped another driver.  I think she felt guilty about stealing, err, knocking Daddy's  sandwich off the table and eating it.   Sarah loves to go for car rides every morning.  She'd go for one instead of eating breakfast if the humans let her. Thankfully, they give us breakfast first, and then we'll go for a ride.  Sometimes we'll even go for one in the afternoon, too.  But, it won't last much longer.  Sarah's mom is getting out of the hospital this week, and she'll be going home in a few days.  We'll miss her.  She's been a lot of fun to play with.

 

We've also gone over to see Freddy's family more frequently the last couple of weeks.  The first time we went, Sarah was very frightened, and didn't want to go inside.  So, Aunt Pat and Nana Mary took her back to our house.  But, the last couple of times we've been over, Sarah has had a wonderful time!  She's made friends with Stanley, Jade, Papa Ed, and their new additions:  Bob, the Coonhound, and Chase, a puppy Freddy's first people are fostering for a local rescue group.  We also met puppies named Wilson, Cara and Alexa, Wilson was just adopted last week!  Chase is the fuzzy one I'm supervising on the left, and Wilson is the one laying closest to me.  The rescue group they're working with is called Blue Moon Meadows.  

 Of course I had to inspect the crate the puppies sleep in.  No, I'm not nosy, and I know our friends take very good care of their charges.  But, since I give Aunt Pat all sorts of help decorating our house, from making Daddy a throw for his bed, and making pillows, etc, I want to give my assistance to decorating the puppies crate to make it more homey.  It doesn't matter the decorating style, everyone wants a comfortable place to rest.

We're Famous!!!

  Wow!  A lot has been going on since my last post.  We've got a furry guest who's staying with us while her human is in the hospital.  She's a Lab Samoyed mix named Sarah, and she's 7, so she's our age.  It's so nice to have another girl around the house!  Freddy's great, but there are just some things a girl wants to talk about with another girl. I'd love to talk to him about what and who we sniffed while on our walks, but he isn't interested.  Men.

Sarah really likes to play and spend time outside.  We've been having fun with our chew toys and tennis balls.  Sarah was a little nervous at first.  She was trying very hard to be good and fit in.  We know she misses her mom, and Daddy and Aunt Pat have been extra nice to her.  I have a lot more to tell you about our adventures in upcoming posts.  But first, the big news!

We're famous!!  Aunt Pat emailed a photo to Petpalooza magazine, a local magazine that features all kinds of pet related articles.  They have a contest every month for the cutest photo, and the prize is a gift card to a local pet store.  Well, we didn't win this month, but our picture got published!  We're photo number 4 on the webpage, and we're in print in the March/ April issue.  How exciting!  I wonder if we'll be discovered by some big talent scout who'll put us on a bag of dog food or in a commercial or something!  Oh dear, I'd better have Daddy and Aunt Pat call our Groomer! I want to be sure we look our best when we get discovered.
