Otterhounds

There I was the other day at the beach in the middle of a pack of Otterhounds! (See me - I am over on the right wearing a tan sweater which makes me blend even more into the pack!). One of them came over to me and asked if I would be his friend. I told him he was too big, and suggested he go see Annie.

That made Annie happy. She likes having friends. Especially messpots like herself!

Happy Birthday Ernie !

It's Ernie's 49th birthday ! (I think you know Ernie - he lives on Sesame Street and he's best friends with Bert). Annie barked that she wants to go to visit Ernie at his home on Sesame Street. Then she started singing - Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street. (I had no idea she watches morning TV!)

Tea Time

Its been so chilly lately so I thought it would be nice to have tea time with Annie. So I took out my new BoBu tea pot with its fab little warmer. (I haven't had the chance to bedazzle it yet). And I served tea and biscuits. The next thing I know...

Annie knocked over the tea and grabbed the biscuit. Ugh. Annie obviously hasn't yet attended her Tea Etiquette class in Princess School.

Go Fish

I decided it would be good for Annie to learn card games. So I started with Go Fish. For the first game I dealt our cards face up so it would be easier for her to understand. She listened intently as I read the rules.

Then I started the game. I asked Annie if she had a sea turtle. She barked no. I said but Annie, you do have a sea turtle card. And then she became sad.  She didn't want to give up any of her cards because she liked them all.

I am going to have to figure out a different game to play.

Inauguration Day

Today our 45th President is sworn into office. President Donald J. Trump. I am proud to be an American poodle with an American Cocker Spaniel. So I hope that my country can move forward and together look to the future with optimism not pessimism. Maybe it would help if the Trumps got a first dog, from a shelter of course.

Popcorn Day

Its National Popcorn Day. So Mommy prepared a bowl of popcorn for Annie and me to share.  I had a couple of pieces and went take a nap. I thought Annie was going to take a nap too. But a crunching sound woke me. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Annie back in the bowl. So much for my share of popcorn.
