Sometimes my adventures aren’t THAT exciting. But a dogs gotta do what a dogs gotta do.
Just twiddling my paws and waiting for my ride to finish getting an oil change.
I was actually quite bummed that mom wouldn’t let me play at the kid’s table. Sigh. We better have a GOOD adventure tomorrow!
Admit it, some of the squeaky toys they make for dogs are just plain lame. Really.
And then there are these squeaky toys from VIP PRODUCTS……
They even have some super tuff dog toys, you know, for dogs like me who are super tough!
You can even sign up to be a toy tester and save big on lots of really cool dog toys! You better believe I’m making my Birthday wish list right now!
I don’t know what to think. Every time I come to the farm it seems like Boomerang is loosing more and more hair. Honestly, I’m a little scared I might be next!
Hang in there pal. I really hope it all grows back!
Yesterday we got more snow. It was fantastic. Everything smells different when it snows.
It’s like I get to re-sniff everything I sniffed before. Even my pal Spider the Kitten likes the snow.
I pretty much taught her everything she knows.
Now if you will excuse me, I have to get back to exploring my new world.
Something about “retro” photos make me think back to the days of my youth. Ah to be young again…..
Somehow you get away with so much more when you’re tiny….
Hard to imagine my pal Trooper was once as tiny as I was. Boy I wish I knew him then….wrestling matches would have been so much fairer. Trooper might have had a chance back then. 🙂
Ok fine, maybe cats can eat sticks too…..but it’s not fair that I can’t climb trees!
Regardless, the bigger Spider the Kitten gets, the more fun we have!
Here’s a few videos to prove it…..
She just better teach me how to climb trees soon!
Now granted I’d much rather be leash free, but sometimes I like being connected to my “person”. Makes me feel a little safe and secure!
So that’s why today’s Friday Fetch is the Lasso retractable leash.
All other leashes let you do one thing- walk the dog. That’s great if that’s all you want to do. But what if you need to stop and run a quick errand while with your dog? Lasso™ is the answer. Just press, lock and go. With over 12,000 dogs injured a year from untied leads, don’t take the risk! Designed for the owner “on the run” with patent-pending quick-click technology. And- it’s also a better everyday retractable leash – more attractive and industrial grade. Beauty…with brains.
You can shop for the Lasso here as well as watch a pretty sweet video!
I have a shadow, as in a kitten shadow, as in Spider the Kitten.
See at the farm it’s MY JOB to help mom bring hay to the ponies! Well now that Spider is getting bigger, she’s trying to be just like me. I mean I know I’m pretty cool, but does she have to do everything I do?
What’s even worse is that she’s trying to show me up!
True, sometimes I get a little distracted from my duties.
It’s kinda hard not to get distracted when there are so many great smells.
But really Spider? Do you have to ride in the wheel barrel and help hand out hay? Come on. You’re making me look bad!
My mom is getting ready to go on a trip……without me! (Someone hold me) And what makes it even worse is that Boomerang gets to go and I don’t!
I have hatched a scheme to hideout in her suitcase, so we’ll see how that goes.
See, Boomerang and mom have been accepted to compete in the Extreme Cowboy Race at the Horse World Expo in Harrisburg, PA February 24 – 27th. I don’t really understand it because mom doesn’t even own a cowboy hat! Which reminds me, maybe if I get a cowboy hat and boots mom will let me come along.
Mom says she wishes very much I could come along, but apparently the Expo doesn’t allow dogs. Stupid if you ask me. What’s a cowboy without his best dog? Seriously.
So until my mom abandons me, I’ve been helping her get Boomerang ready for the big event.
Not trying to brag, but I pretty much taught Boomerang how to be an awesome cowboy cowhorse bronco or whatever he’s supposed to be. After toting him around all over the county for the past Month and a half, I think he’s finally ready.
Just check out this video of Boomerang Practicing last weekend:
So I guess I’ll just have to hang with dad next week while mom’s gone. Boomerang better bring me back a trophy or something after all the hard work I put into training him…..or I’m gonna be peeved!
Also, mom, I expect presents upon your return. Thank you.

It’s true, it really is.
I think that’s why this year mom’s Valentine’s Day present to dad was SUPER sweet. Mostly because it came in the form of a Dachshund!
I have to admit I’m a tad jealous. I wanted a Dachshund Valentine! Eh, who am I kidding – I’d much rather have a rawhide anyway – but it’s still super cool.
You can get your very own Message in a Doxie here – perfect to send all year long! I kinda want to get a whole bunch to send to all my favorite friends! Maybe then Cricket will forgive me for not getting her a Valentine’s Day Present.
Sigh. I guess I’ll have to start saving up my pennies again. Good thing I have that Dachshund Bank!
