Unicorn Appreciation Day!

Remember how my friend Baxter the Dachshund told me that Wednesday was Unicorn Appreciation Day? And remember how I set out to catch my own Unicorn with some glitter? Well, now that it’s Wednesday, I bet you are all wondering if I was able to catch my Unicorn friend?

I had to wait a really really really long time with my glitter bait.

Even Cricket got bored of waiting – she thought maybe if she played dead the Unicorn would come to save her. It didn’t work out like she planned (don’t worry, she didn’t really die).

But then, after waiting for DAYS, I heard something off in the distance.

“Are you my Unicorn?” – Me

“Why yes, I came because I smelled your glitter” – Unicorn

“But how do I know you are a Unicorn” – Me

 

And then I looked up and it was GLORIOUS!

My Unicorn had come at last, and he was more spectacular than I imagined!

I gave him lots and lots of kisses and told him I was happy he came to the Unicorn Appreciation Day. I wished he could stay forever, but he said he had to get back to the magical forest.

Although he did leave some magical Unicorn poop behind for me as a souvenir. I’m soooo lucky!

Unicorn Huntin’

My pal Baxter the Dachshund says that it’s Unicorn Appreciation Day on Wednesday. Baxter has already started trying to catch his Unicorn in his backyard to bring to the Appreciation Day. He’s super smart, so I’m sure he’ll have no problem catching one, he even thought up some really cool bait to catch his Unicorn with – like Watermelon, Glitter, and even Beans.

Since Baxter looked like he was having so much fun trying to catch his Unicorn, I told my mom I wanted to catch my own for Unicorn Appreciation Day too.

Luckily the Painting Ponies had a stash of glitter on hand at the farm. Gotta love a pony that keeps glitter in their locker.

I spread out some of my glitter by some pretty flowers on the farm. I figured if Unicorns like glitter, then they probably like flowers too.

Now comes the hard part, waiting for my Unicorn to show up….

Just in case I also started digging a Unicorn hole – you know – should Unicorns live underground. Hey, you never know!

Super Duper

Wow! We’re only a week away from my big performance at the Keystone Dachshund Races with my pal, Trooper. Trooper has been practicing really hard, he had to learn several new tricks in the past few weeks. So I finally decided that Trooper had earned a little reward for his efforts.

So mom and dad helped me build my pal a Super Hero Box! (Just like mine – only bigger). Of course it turned out so great, that I had to take it for a little spin myself.

And no super hero is complete without a super cape! So my pal Baxter’s mom whipped up a cape especially for my buddy Trooper.

I totally had to take it for a test spin.

 

“Um, mom, do you think Trooper would mind if I kept his cape and box?”

 

Duds and Buds

Check it out, this came in the mail for me a few days ago. Mom said it was a little surprise for me, because I’m such a good boy!

I look super dashing in my new harness made by my pal Baxter’s mom. And guess what? It’s heavy duty so I can get “down and dirty” during all my adventures! I’ll definitely have to break it in with a little romp in the horse manure pile later.

I also hung out with my new buddy all day.

Well at least until I decided he’d be a lot more fun to chew on than hang out with!
