He didn't do it right..

Clint took really good care of me while Mommy & Daddy were gone. However, they came home last night and I didn't even know they were coming. You see, when Molly watches me she tells me that they're coming and she takes me to the airport with her. I LOVE going to the airport when we're there to pick people up and Molly knows that. Clint did a good job but it wasn't the same as Molly.

Dear Mommy & Daddy...

I miss you guys a lot. When are you coming home? Clint takes good care of me. He gives me food just like you showed him how, takes me potty just like you do and gives me lots of loves. HOWEVER, it's not the same as when you're here.
Mommy, I miss curling up next to your tummy at night. Daddy, I miss licking your back. Please come home soon......
Love,
Rosco
P.S.
Dude & Linus miss you too...

Dude sightings...

Dude's been coming out a lot more often these days. She likes to crawl on top of the fridge and watch mommy cook. The door to the guest bedroom was shut tonight and she started jumping on the handle to get out...funny how just a few days ago she didn't want to leave that room. She's finally stopped hissing at me and now just ignores me. Grampy, check out mommy's blog for her Linus posting.

I think mommy and daddy are leaving for a while. My friend, Clint, came over tonight and mommy told him how to take care of me and the cats. I sure am going to miss my parents but Clint will take good care of me. Mommy forgot to tell him when I get treats, though. She'd better fill him in tomorrow-I need my potty treats!

Snowy Sunday

This week has gone by so fast! I spend all my time sleeping and before I know it it's Sunday again!

Last night we got a new dump of snow in Juneau. Fresh snow is definitely my favorite. As soon as we woke up this morning my Mommy called her friend and we all went for a walk at Twin Lakes. Mommy let me off my leash and so I could run all over the place in the fresh snow!

This is now Dude's 5th day at my house and I still haven't seen much of her. She came out when mommy was cooking shrimp. Mommy gave her a piece and she LOVED it. I love shrimp too and wish mom would make it more often! Dude has finally moved from the guest bedroom window and found a place in daddy's closet. She curls up on his sweatshirts and sleeps there for hours.

WednesdaY

I pretend like I don't like him but sometimes I can't help but snuggle up with Linus and mommy or daddy.

This is day 1 of Dude's visit and I haven't seen her much at all. Last night she locked herself in mommy & daddy's bedroom and hid in their closet. Today she found a new hiding spot. She likes to hide in the guest bedroom and look out the window. She came out to eat dinner but wouldn't play with me. She won't even talk to me...all I get these days are hisses. I remember when Dude was a kitten and would snuggle and play with me. I miss those days

On the plus side, Linus still loves Dude's kennel. =)

Dude's here..

This is my friend Dude. She's Grampy & Grammy's cat so I guess that'd make her my Aunt??? She flew in tonight to stay with us for the winter while Grammy & Grampy travel. I was SOO excited to see her! I whined and wagged my nub like crazy! I don't think Dude shared my excitement because when I tried sniffing her she hissed at me and hid under the bench.

Linus seems to like her kennel and has crawled in there for the evening. I think I might try it out later, too. Wonder if I can fit my beagle-belly in there??

Sundays are the best...

Sundays are starting to have their own routine at our house. We wake up and snuggle while mommy drinks coffee and reads the news online. After that she starts some laundry. I LOVE laundry days because right after the clothes come out of the drier mom throws them on the bed so that I can snuggle in them. There is NOTHING better that burrowing down into clean warm clothes. After that we usually go for an afternoon walk or drive. Today we walked down to Twin Lakes. My mom let me off my leash and I ran in circles as fast as I could. There were so many new smells I couldn't take them all in at once!

Mom usually talks to grammy Pam on Sundays, too. This Sunday I found out that my cat-friend, Dude is coming to visit on Tuesday. She's staying for a few months while grammy & grampy travel for the winter. I wonder if she'll play with me and chase me all over the house.

What a great Sunday...I'm not ready for my parents to go back to work tomorrow. It's so nice having them at home with me.

Oh, the weather outside is frightful!

I went outside yesterday morning to pee and was suprised by a fresh coat of snow on the ground. I LOVE the snow! My favorite part of winter is chasing snowflakes and jumping in huge snowpiles. I hope my mom will take me snowshoeing as soon as there's enough snow on the ground!
This morning I went outside and it was CRAZY windy and rainy! Mommy had to wake up early to proctor tests at the highschool but as soon as she left the power went out. She came back a few minutes later and told me that testing had to be rescheduled. We crawled back into bed and slept for a few hours. It was so nice to cuddle with mommy and daddy in our big warm bed...ahhh.

One more reason to love Aunt Molly

She gave me the whole piece of my jerky treat after our walk together last night. Mom and Dad usually break off a small piece for me. I do love my Aunt Molly =)

Playing

My week has been kindof boring. Usually, Mom tries to take me for walks every night but it's been so rainy and gross out lately that we've skipped a lot of walks. I can usually go a day or two without a good walk but after about three days I start having lots of energy that just needs to get out!!!

Finally, on Thursday I got some play time. My Molly friend came over and walked with me and Mom even though it was windy and rainy. Then, when I came home my Paul friend was here and he played with me too! It was nice to get out some of my crazy energy and have fun! Playing is definitely the best...I think more humans should try it.

Happy Halloween....I guess...

Mommy and Daddy left me home alone tonight. They got all dressed up and headed out the door. I thought Halloween was supposed to be fun. I thought maybe we'd have friends over and I could beg for food and impress them with my tricks. Mommy told me that they were going to a couple of parties and that dogs weren't allowed.

While they were gone I decided to find my own costume and have a little fun with the camera.
