My Mom is a Worry Wort & I'm Tired... ******UPDATE*******

Here's an Update:

OK...I stopped doing that licky thing...

My Mom still doesn't know what my

problem was...

'Ya just gotta keep them on their

toes...'Ya know??

I guess I escaped the trip to the VET...

**********************************

Here's what happened last nite:

My Mom worries too much...

I always do this thing where I keep sticking my

tongue in & out really fast...

My Mom always thinks it's cuz the furs around my

mouth are too long and they get stuck in my mouth...

Well last nite I started doing it about 6:00PM & I did

it constantly all nite long & I couldn't sleep & so,

she couldn't sleep...And, now she wants to

take me to the VET...Cuz she thinks my tooth might

be bothering me or something...

Do any of you do that? If you think you know why I'm

doing it, can you try to explain it to my Mom so she

will stop freaking out??

I fell asleep just about the time that thing that wakes us up

started making that awful sound...I wasn't

ready to get up yet...But she had too...

Thanks,

Happy Barkday to Me...Happy Barkday to Me...

Hey...I have two things to celebrate today...

It's not only St Patrick's Day...

It's My 3rd Barkday....

See the new Bandanana I got at the Spa...

My Mom gave me presents...

What's in here???

Wow...Look at all this stuff....
Look what my shirt says...
And...I got 2 new Stuffies, a Little Loofa Dog,
some yummy Liver Treats...


And, see that little jar?? Look familiar???

Yep..It's the Treat Contest Jar...

I wondered where she put that...

But, Rosco told me I can't eat any
'til after the Contest is over...

Something about being fair...
Ok...Now I got another little treat for you...
Sit back & enjoy the show....

Don't you Love Barkdays???

Oh, & I will be announcing the Winner of

My Birthday Contest tomorrow...

There are some really close guesses...

And, there just might be another surprise...

Abby xxxooo

My Birthday Contest...

OK...In honor of my 3rd Birthday

which is on Tuesday, March 17th...

I am having my first ever Contest....

So...Take a look at the picture below...

See the jar of Training Treats??

Well the Contest is easy...

Just guess how many treats are in the jar...

I have given you a few "points of reference"...

( that's what my Mom called them...)

She thought of a few things, to help you know

how big the jar is...

I thought of the empty toilet paper roll, cuz

we are all familiar with them...

I shredded this one soon after the picture

was taken...

The Contest will run from today, Sunday, March 15th

to 12:00PM EST on March 17th = My Birthday...

The winner will be the one with the closest guess...

In the event of a tie, the first one who posts

will be the winner...& I will mail you a prize

that I pick especially for you...

Rosco will be overseeing the entire

Contest to insure it's integrity...

Oh...& in case you have these treats

you can't just count how many are in the jar....

Cuz, you don't know how many my Mom

has already given me...

Good Luck Everybody!!!

Honest, Mom...We Had Nothing to Do With It...

Wow...We really thought we were in trouble...

My Mom was gonna be home any minute...

She had to work 'til 9:00 PM last nite...

That never puts her in a good mood, anyway...

When she walked into the Kitchen,

this is what she saw...

Then she saw this in the Living Room...
We thought for sure we were gonna get blamed
for the mess...

But she wasn't even mad...

She knew right away what had happened...

Rosco's Dad came home from the Army for the

weekend...So, Rosco's Mom & Dad were home all

day & they just relaxed & ate pizza & started

to pack some stuff for when they move into their

new house next month...

I'm soooo glad we didn't get blamed for this one...

Oh...And, it's 4 Days 'til my Birthday...

Abby xxxooo

Ready for Work & the Count Down Begins...

I'm all ready for work, Eduardo...

Pillows fluffed, morning walk out of the way...

All settled down for some hard work....

Oh...And if you haven't noticed...

Look up there on my Side Bar...Way up at the top...

See what it says???

My Birthday is in 7 Days...

That's One Week from today...

I can't wait...

OMdoG...I Couldn't Believe It...

My Mom finally took me for a walk in my

BACK YARD this afternoon...

There has been soooo much snow, I haven't

been able to go out there for a long time...

I'm inspecting...Want to come along???

There's still some snow here & there...
And, lots of sticks...Chef would love it out here...
She even took me to my favorite
Squirrel Hunting Spot...
I know they are out here...I can hear them...
Maybe over there???
Or...Over there???
Do you believe it??

He ran right across the fence & up the tree...

He remembered me...

He knows it's time for him to start hiding...
You haven't seen the last of me, Mr Squirrel...

Abby xxxooo

It's Joey's Birthday...

Let's all help him Celebrate...

Working for Eduardo...

Today, my job is doing tricks for Gold Fish Crackers...

I get the instructions right...

Gold Fish Crackers are the Best...

Gold Fish Crackers are...
