Got Some Toys For Christmas

 I got toys and treats for Christmas.  I chewed up some of them - the toys - pretty much already.  Daddy says that's why I usually get a tied up wad of old socks instead of toys.  Christmas is special.  I'll be back to chewing tied up socks soon....

Christmas Bath

Getting Dried Off - Get Me Outta Here!
Gosh, I thought Christmas was fun.  Getting toys and biscuits and treats.  Squeaky toys and fuzzy toys and maybe a new collar or bandana.

But then I heard daddy Frank go into the closet to get towels.  He never gets towels after dinner.  I knew somethin' was up.  And it was not good.  He didn't have to say a word, I knew what he was thinking and what he was scheming.  Then he went to the cookie jar.  I knew it! Bribes!

Then he says "Come on Benni" like he thinks I'll just follow him to my execution.

I'll play along for a Liver Snap, up to a point.  But I ain't goin' NEAR that bathroom.

Daddy begs and coaxes.  NO WAY!

Then he grabs me by my collar and starts dragging me.  I resist.  He calls Daddy Leon for reinforcements.  They corral me into the bathroom.  Dread!

But I'm NOT getting into that tub!  Christmas bath, Bah Humbug!

Well, Daddy got his way but I didn't make it easy for him.

I got showered up and dried off and rubbed down and combed out.  I guess they call it a spa treatment.  Daddies are too cheap to send me to the groomer where Bouvier goes.  Bouvier is a classy Poodle.

I get my Christmas Bath in the old bathtub.  Gosh, I HATE Christmas Bath.  How humiliating!

Daddy Leon Brushing Me Out

When You See SOMETHING, Bark SOMETHING

Daddy says my bark sounds so serious.  I look out the window and whenever there's something going on across the street I bark.  Sometimes it's just a "ruf";  Sometimes it's a "Ruff, Ruff", it depends.  Sometimes I say "GRUFF, GRUFF, GRUFF,GRUFF, GRUFF" real loud.  Daddies get upset when I talk like that when they're watching TV.  But that's my job,


Daddy says even when I know there's really nothing to Ruff about, I won't admit it.  (I won't, cuz I take my job serious and don't want to admit when I goof).

Any how, like they say on that commercial, "When you see SOMETHING, say SOMERUFF".

Back at the Park with my friends:

Life Is Doggie Park and Dinner and Snoozing

Daddies think I should have words of wisdom, whatever that is. But life is too simple to have lots to say. Sleep, Eat, Walk, Play.

I just hang out on my couch, look out the window and wait to go out. I go to doggie park almost every day or to the woods up back. We walk for a half hour or an hour. I could keep going cuz I never get tired, even though I like to snooze.

I snooze when I'm bored...  When I can't go out or when no one wants to play.

That Means A New Doggie To Play With
Gotta Go...
