Pool is open, everyone come in!

Mum finally got my pool out of shed and filled it with water utilizing the evil water hose which must be attacked at all costs! I do not know what the evil water hose does when it is not on but it must hide in some dark, dusty, evil place. For that and many more reasons, I always go slightly ballistic when Mum turns on the hose. Cooper, he doesn't care for water so he ignores the evil water hose. He has no idea how many times I have saved his life. Ungrateful wretch!

Checking out the evil water hose

I took a brief break to catch my breath.



Keeping an eye on the hose, it seems to move on its own.

Always keep a firm grip on the hose lest it get away.

Never take your eyes off of the hose, it cannot be trusted.

Nice action shot eh? Mum does have her uses.

Take that you evil hose! Nice teeth yes?

I feel barking adds to the experience. Mum unfortunately does not agree. Go figure.

Today the evil water hose, tomorrow the lawn mower!

Love, Dozer and his brother, Cooper

Horrors! (This is just to get your attention)

Where has the time gone? Indeed we ask that ourselves, quite often! It was a busy May for us with our Grandmother falling and fracturing her shoulder – Mum had to fly out to Chicago  to check out on Grandmummy and stayed for a whole week. We were, of course, lonely, but Dad took good care of us.

While we have been away the most shocking things have happened and we list them in no particular order:

 1.      I (Dozer) have had to go to the vet because I have rubbed my face raw due to allergies. I have another visit to the vet today because it has begun again.

2.      Cooper had a haircut.

3.      We are having a small party on July 1^st for our doggie friends. Please pray that the rain stops.

4.      Grandmummy has decided to move out to Oregon so Mum is scrambling to get GM’s apartment outfitted with furniture and essentials at the assisted living hotel.

5.      It is raining incessantly here. Even if this is typical of Oregon, it is most unwelcome.

6.      Both of us have tried running away when Mummy or Dad let us out in the front yard. I made it across the street to the neighbor’s house where I pooped under their tree and pee’d on their bushes. Cooper headed straight down the street towards town and ignored all of Mum’s screaming. Eventually we were corralled home and given a stern lecture. Yeah…whatever.

Mum says we will update our blog regularly now and we ask forgiveness from our subscribers for having you let you down so terribly. I would like to remind our dear readers that we are entirely dependent on Mum to keep our blog updated and current. She is totally worthless at times and her priorities need realignment.

I am off to the vet in a few minutes and shall update you on their findings.

Summer is Here and We're Playing

We are so glad it is finally warm! We've been outside playing and these are just some of the our photos from this week!

An Important Message from Cooper Edwards

It's really, really hot here. Could you send me
some popsicles right away? Thanks, Coop

Good-Bye to Uncle Bob

We said good-bye to Uncle Bob today. He is heading home to Seattle and we will now have to coerce our bipeds into throwing the ball and generally spoiling us.

Last night we had a lot of ball throwing and sitting outside on the swing. It was one of those mild summer evenings you dream of. Dad filled up my wading pool which was handy for a drink and a quick foot wash between runs after the ball.

Cooper got a paper towel roll to chew on - I think that is his comfort fud. He likes to chew and then rolls the little pieces of cardboard on his tongue for a bit. But toilet paper remains his favorite munch food. Me? I am a kibble boy.

Mom used the new dehydrator last night and made sweet potato crisps for us. They came out very well and we had quite a few after breakfast. Now she has apple slices baking for us. I am loving this! Now if we could have some meat products that would be perfect!
