I woke up feeling really edgy this morning – actually Poppy woke me up earlier than usual.  Still no Mamaw.  I am concerned that there is something going on today. Poppy was around doing his “clean-up act” and things seem unusual today. I did my potty and poop activities but didn’t feel like eating breakfast.

Well just when I thought things were going to get started normally Poppy got out my bedroom kennel and loaded me into the car with him – I saw him sneak out some of my food and doggy bones in a sack to the car – I have a feeling I am going somewhere today. Hope it’s not to “Bark Busters” – this might be the real “exile” that Mamaw is always threatening me with if I don’t behave. The ride was pretty short – when I got out of my crate I realize that I was at Jessica’s place. That’s good ‘cause I always like to see her – she is so nice and they treat me like they really like me to come there.

Wait a minute – something is wrong here – Poppy is leaving the food and crackers here and I get the feeling I am not going home with him. Woe is me – where’s my Mamaw – this is going to be hard duty I think. Poppy looked sad and concerned when they took me through the door to what I am afraid is going to be a whole new experience.  Stay tuned and I will let you know what I think. I hope Mamaw gets home pretty soon.

OH MY GOD—I AM IN EXILE! I knew things were different but Poppy had the nerve to take me to be kenneled! Well, Mamaw isn’t home and he has to go to work so I suppose that’s how it will be when THIS HAPPENS! The next time Mamaw tries to sneak off, I am going to grab hold of her ankle or pant leg so she can’t leave me! This is what I call the worst place in the world to be. I’m stuck in a cage. I am asking myself, “Why me?” Somebody came along this morning and this afternoon to take me for a walk but it isn’t the same. I don’t like it—I don’t want to mind—I just can’t stand this. And then it gets dark and I still have to stay in this cage. Did they bring me here because I get naughty? They took me from the cage and gave me shots and stuff—I’m not sure what that was all about. My whole routine just sucks right now—I WANT TO GO HOME! Well, it didn’t happen—I was left there all night for God’s sake!
