Picture time

Mom finally was able to get a good picture of Sassy. She wasn't sure why she needed to have her picture taken so many times but I told her its just something our mom does so she better get used to it. 

She decided to humor her.

 She is fitting in just fine :) She is still a little scared of me. I told her not to worry and that not all black dogs are like Teeko. He is a breed all his own!

Salt and Dirt Water

Last week sometime... i'm not good with dates...Teeko's mom took us on an adventure. My mom didn't come...I don't know what she was doing...I never know what she's doing...Anyway, we went on a longish drive and arrived at a big park with no grass. I saw out the window that there was a guy far off in the distance so as soon as Teeko's mom opened the car, I ran right over to say hello. She was yelling at me to come back but I think its pretty rude to not say hello when you come to someones park. After I welcomed him, I saw water. I LOVE water! So I ran straight in. It was so much fun. I haven't been swimming in a long time so I took full advantage. Teeko's mom was yelling at me to get out. Apparently this is not a fun park...its a sit and be good park. Boring. As I was coming out of the water I realized I was thirsty so I took a drink of the water I was standing in. Normally this is a great idea....not this day. This water had a very funny taste. It actually made me more thirsty after I drank it. Weird. Lucky for me, Teeko's mom brought us regular water to drink. I will stay away from that yucky stuff from now on.

After we got home from out adventure, Teeko's mom thought I needed a bath. I don't know why, I was just in the water so I thought I was already clean. I heard her telling my mom that I was full of salt and dirt...maybe that's what the weird taste was....Either way, it was a fun adventure. I hope we go back soon!

Sassy

I think mom finally figured out the kitty's name...Sassy. I hope this is it. She has changed it too many times. When I was just a pup, she did that to me too. But she finally figured out the perfect name for me too :)

Sassy is well....sassy! She is up on the bed before me and mom tries to make me get up there with them. But Sassy has her angry eyes on and I just am not so sure I want to make her uncomfortable. And of course, she is always right next to my ramp. Last night, mom had to pick her up cuz she yelled at me (mom calls it hissing). If mom only knew what she was saying to me, she would wash her mouth out with soap. Maybe someday soon she and I will be friends.

Trouble already

Mom came home last night and found the nameless kitty here....

Before mom got home I told her she shouldn't get up there. But she doesn't listen. So mom had to get a chair and climb up there to get her down so she didn't break anything. What a troublemaker! You would think she would stay off of things being that she fell off of her cat tree. She doesn't have the best balance so I don't know why she insists on trying to be up high on EVERYTHING. She will learn one way or another.

Kitty Kitty

Life has been good....I get to see my mom all the time, go on walks...multiple visits with Teeko each week...Its been awesome. Then one day last weekend my mom came home with a strange box. She put it on the counter and I needed to see what it was right away. I jumped up to the garbage can to hold me up and took a sniff...hmmm...a cat. Seen plenty of them before. Boring. So I grabbed my toy and went to my pillow. Mom has been obsessed with this new cat. I dont even know her name yet cuz my mom just keeps calling her kitty kitty...maybe thats her name??

Anyways, then a few days after this new cat was in our house, her and I finally had some alone time. She is really scared right now but I keep showing her that I am a nice guy. She isnt convinced just yet. She has had a sad life for the last little while. She said she just slept in a cage all day. She didnt think she did anything wrong so she wasnt sure why she was in there. I told her that my mom was a great mom and would give her lots of attention. She said that she didnt think she was staying because she has been in a lot of other homes and they always sent her back to the cage. She will see soon enough that my mom doesn't get rid of any animals. She loves them too much.

I told her about my blog and how I type (its a secret so I cannot share it with you humans) and she said that once she thinks she will be with us forever, she might give it a go. So we will see how things go...As long as my mom doesnt get another dog, I will be a happy camper :)
