Partridge-like

Friday, October 13th, 2006

Hello, world, here the song that we’re singin’
C’mon get happy!
A whole lot of lovin’ is what we’ll be bringin’
We’ll make you happy!
We had a dream, we’d go travelin’ together,
We’d spread a little lovin’ then we’d keep movin’ on.
Somethin’ always happens whenever we’re together
We get a happy feelin’ when we’re singing a song.
Trav’lin’ along there’s a […]

the flappy things of death

Friday, October 13th, 2006

Lately the monkeys seem obsessed with removing lumpy things from us dogs. Icky got two and I got three, and now we have stitches and have had to eat extra treats twice a day for a week. I think the vet is a vampire, too…she keeps taking my blood. But the […]

It’s this thing we have. This Italian thing.

Italian Greyhound dog of mystery…

Saturday, July 29th, 2006

We have a new game, the monkeys and I. I greet them with the beehive:
and they yell “Oh bee-HIVE!” and they try to take it away while I growl and maybe even bark, then they get it, throw it, and I go get it, and we start over. It’s good! I found […]

March of the Keet-guins

Saturday, July 29th, 2006

Oh great. It’s bad enough there were only five of us left. Now we have to compete with this:

WTF?

Monday, July 24th, 2006

There’s something weird going on around here. I have been here for almost 5 YEARS and I don’t get to go out off leash, but that little greyhound sausage gets to run around. She totally wastes the opportunity, too, by not running off into the woods.

It’s working well

Monday, July 24th, 2006

I have entered into a symbiotic relationship with Cupcake. I tell her when meals are due and she make sure she is nearby when I get my shots/snacks; she promises to spit out at least half her dry food on the floor so I can eat it. It seems to be working well. If I […]

needle = snack

Monday, July 24th, 2006

I found out something really cool about snacks around here. Twice a day, Grep has to get a needle stuck in her. Immediately after, she gets a snack! I found out if I am nearby every time she gets the needle in the butt, I get a snack too! And I don’t even get a […]

EEEEEEAAAAHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUU!

Saturday, July 15th, 2006

We are sad to report a fox got Hennie, Big Bird, Grubby, and GrayBob 2. We thought the fox was like those little dogs that come around that just sniff our butts and herd us into the coop. We would like to register a complaint with the landlords. We would also like to formally […]

I got a bunny!

Monday, July 10th, 2006

IgotoneIgotoneIgotone! Under the blue tree with all the sharp needles! Mom made me drop it but I already killed it! (Too bad I didn’t get to taste it, it was young and tender…) Next time I’m not gonna show her at all.

Bantam Chickens, Bantam Greyhound?

They’re after me, man, they’re after me:

We’ve voted to change Rusty’s name to Randy.

Pool!

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

Nothing beats a kiddie pool in the summer!

I don’t blame her…hamburger gravy.

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

Today I was minding my own business hoovering hamburger gravy off a plate when all of a sudden Cupcake nipped at my ears. Fortunately I managed to clean the plate anyway. I learned back in Peanut’s day not to stop eating just because I had a few holes in my ears. Anyway they didn’t even […]

And stop calling me Houndenberg.

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

Hey, I didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to bite the other dogs when we were eating off the same plate. Guess Aunt Erica will know next time she needs to separate us when we eat. I’m used to being an only dog, not sharing–so far as I knew, Grep was stealing MY hamburger morsel.
Today I […]

Oh the huge manatee

Tuesday, June 20th, 2006

Someone should tell these monkeys:

Just because I rolled on a flattened dead mouse doesn’t mean I need a bath
It’s NOT ok for Uncle Paul to call me the ‘Houndenberg’. I’m just big boned!

My favorite command is ’speak’

Monday, June 19th, 2006

I keep telling Cupcake if she wants to get fed faster she should bark as much as possible while mom’s in the kitchen. I’m sure it makes her work faster, even though she keeps telling me to shut up. Every time I try to talk to Cupcake, though, she walks away. What a snob! […]

Routine

Monday, June 19th, 2006

Yesterday was a good day. We didn’t walk as far (just a lot of little walks around the yard)–good thing because it was HOT. Later on Great Aunt Nancy, Great Uncle George, and Great Great Aunt Clara came over and we had lots of good things to eat but I didn’t get nearly ENOUGH. […]

Snakes are funny.

Monday, June 19th, 2006

We had fun yesterday with our friend Garter T. Snake. We told him to hide inside the coop door and when mom-monkey opened it, she squeaked and Garter slithered into the coop. She ran and got a stick and chased him around trying to get him out, until Penny stepped on Garter and he slithered […]

I thought that’s what monkeys were for?

Monday, June 19th, 2006

The new girl is SOOOOOOO smart. She can get under a blanket without having to whine and wait for the monkeys to cover her. I’m going to ask her how she did that…
