Here it is the last day of the month! I am sleeping much better when the kennel is in the living room and it is bigger. It was 7:15 this morning when Mamaw came to get me. I was sitting in my kennel just waiting for her.

We did the potty and poop thing. Back to the house for a half hour of eating and enjoying the family and she decides we should go on our first walk around 8:30. She told me she has a doctor’s appointment at 11:15 so no messing around—she would need to get back to the house and get cleaned up.
Well…I don’t want her to go to the doctor so I fake that I am tired on my walk and just laid down—all stretched out. Mamaw had to pull me a little ways to get me moving again—and then I would take her for the walk of her life! Yes, I would pull ahead of her and I know with her hip it hurts her. We continue playing this little game—she and me. It was pretty this morning. Maybe I’ll do better after she gets home from the doctor and it is a little warmer. Poppy is getting all cleaned up too—wonder what he is up to!

Mamaw was gone a couple of hours (I think she went shopping after she saw the doctor). She came home and I was right there to greet her. I am always so excited to see her—she’s so pretty! Poppy told her she had a couple of calls; one from her sister. Mamaw called and before I knew what was going on she was OUT THE DOOR AGAIN! Oh my God—this isn’t the way my day is supposed to go. And then Poppy left too. Good Lord…what’s up?

Well, Poppy got home before Mamaw and when she came home she smelled just like garlic. I think she snuck out to have a late lunch with her sister. That’s okay—we went on a nice walk as soon as she got home.

She’s on the phone right now. Oh please, God, HELP ME! She is calling Deb at Bark Busters!

I hope she doesn’t call back!
