Sundance's Little Buddy Butch

Because you can't have Sundance without Butch - just thought I'd quickly introduce Sundance's new best bud - Butch.  Butch is 8 weeks old and a solid black purebred German Shepherd puppy.  I'm looking forward to sharing with everyone some of the great adventures I'm sure will be in store with Butch & Sundance.

A Christmas Poem From the Dog

Eyeing hydrants, digging holes,
Drinking from the toilet bowls . . .

Playing games of "tug-o'-war,"
Putting scratch marks on your door . . .

Rolling over, playing dead,
Getting dog hair on your bed . . .

Scaring folks who bring the mail,
Chasing cars, as well as tail . . .

Barking, begging, heeling, howling,
And also, on occasion, growling . . .

Romping through a field of grass,
Sneezing, snoozing, passing gas . . .

Sniffing everything I see,
Peeing on the Christmas tree . . .

Woofing, wagging, chomping, chewing . . .
These are things I sure love doing!

(But I'll try not to do that tree thing . . .)

Merry Christmas!

Who Flushed the Toilet?

Both of us (humans) sitting in our living room with the dogs lounging around on the floor, just chatting about our days and all the sudden the toilet flushes.  We freaked a bit and wondered who else is in our house?  So we took a peek around the corner into the bathroom and there on the toilet sits Wyatt (the cat). Apparently he figured out how to flush the toilet. I know he likes to play with the toilet paper but had no clue he figure out how to flush.  I guess it's getting too cold to pretend he's a dog and demand to go outside to potty - now he wants to pretend he's human so he can stay inside and use the toilet. Geez, I thought cats used litter boxes.......

Liebster Blog Award


One of those fun little blog thingys – Awards from other bloggers!
I was honored a few days ago with the Liebster Award from Jamie at ‘It Just Keeps Getting Better’  Thank you Jamie!

I understand that liebster is a German word meaning dearest or beloved.  The award is to help spotlight some lesser known blogs with less than 200 followers and bring them some attention.   
I’d like to pass the award on to the following blogs that I follow and really think others would love if they knew about them.
