Yum, broccoli! These are called Broccoli bones...you know, the part of the broccoli that gets thrown away. I chomp on them as if they're bones.  

ZZZZzzzzzz....dog daze of summer...for cool pics of Avery and Ibelle, go to the Momma's blog. (link on the right) 

This is the momma when she was very young and her brother (Avery's Dad). Avery looks so much like him!

I eat so healthy. Carrots rule on a nice day like today. 

There's just something about a nice day that brings out the best in a quality dog like me. 

Ahhh, a nice sunny day. you can just smell the fresh air.

shaking off after my hunt 

The daily hunt for frogs and toads. 

There is so much water to explore! 

The moss covered with dew. 

I guess Chocolate Donut Holes aren't OK for a dog to eat. The kid's friend came over (as usual), only this time, instead of candy, she brought a whole box of chocolate glazed donut holes!!! Yay!!! She left that box on the floor by her stuff, and left the room briefly. How nice of her, I thought. I grabbed that box and proceeded to eat 4 or 5 of those delectable treats. The momma saw me and came running like a lunatic, snatching the box and the last of the yummy holes. I guess chocolate and dogs aren't compatible. I think that stinks. I'm ok though, they probably don't use real chocolate in those donuts anyway.

As requested - an update

So the weather went from hot and humid and GROSS to wet and cold and GROSS. I must admit that I like the cold weather much better than the HOT weather, and I've been known to do my little dance in the yard.

Happy medium anyone?

Happy Birthday Grammie!! 

One of the cats caught me a chipmunk, but we lost it up a tree.

new guinea impatiens 

It's entirely too hot for this dog to be out and about. I think I shall retreat to the nice cool bedroom.

I think I may have to go hunt me a chipmunk. 

Hi there, did you miss me? 

Yeah, so it's been really hot outside, I'll just bask in the shade of the cart that the Momma's been hauling everywhere.
