I was just sitting on my window sill looking outside to a gray sky, there isn't even a ray of sunshine to bark at. It's just bleak and wet outside. No bueno. Today is Monday which means I don't get to see my parents all day long after spending two whole days hanging out with them. I get a little sad when I have to be by myself again. I understand, someones got to bring in the cash but I just get lonely sometimes, especially when it's Monday and rainy outside.I have to shake this off. Let's get some positive thoughts rolling on here. Why don't I tell you about the super weekend I had?
On Friday, mum and dad stuck around during the night time which is always a treat. Sometimes they just come home, walk me, feed me and bail on me. Like they have something more important than me... ha! I guess they need some playgroup time too. They watched the color box with other people on it and I snuggled on my mum's lap. That's my favorite place to fall asleep. She has a super soft blue blanket that keeps me extra warm. She calls it her blanket but we both know it's really mine.
Saturday was the most fun of all. We got up and mum left to go somewhere so my dad took me for a nice walk, although it was short so I was a bummed out a little bit. I like being outside and it was kind of sunny so I wanted to stay out. I knew something was up because they left my orange harness on and normally they only do that if it's playgroup day. Mum came back and we all headed down to the car. Oh, how I LOVE the car. My parents bring my yellow bed and put it on the seats behind them and I get to walk back and forth and have all this space to myself. Plus, it makes a humming sound that I can hear and feel and it makes me sleepy. Arf! We're going somewhere!!
The first place we stopped mum and dad got out and left me behind. At first I hated it when they do this because I worry. I know I might look like a tough guy but I don't know where they're going, when they will be back, and it's not fair that they don't take me. Lucky for me they stopped the car right in front of the building they were in so I could see them. They brought out a bunch of bags that looked heavy and we were moving again. This time to one of my very favorite places... the BEACH!!
We got out and walked down the steps to the soft, sandy part. It was so cool! After a long conversation, dad finally convinced mum to take the leash off of me. BEST MOVE EVER!!! I went running where ever I pleased and mum and dad were keeping a close eye on me. Don't tell them but I don't like to get too far away from them. What happens if I lose them in a crowd? I would be howling. Awuuu!
I kept finding these weird smelling brown things that kind of looked like a plant. Some of them had bugs flying around them. I figured they were pretty important because there wasn't any other grass or plants on the beach so I just left my scent behind... if you know what I mean.
We were all having a great time on the beach walking and running and there were so many other dogs around. Some were really crazy and they actually went into the moving water!! WHAT?? I know, that's what I barked too. Then the worst moment of the day occurred. We got to one part of the beach that had moving water. Mum and dad leaped over it and were calling my name. Don't you freaks know how much I hate the water? I walked up and down that stream of water trying to find a dry spot. Mum kept calling my name and telling me "Come on, Bugs!" but I was scared. I didn't know how deep it was and it's not like the puddles of water when we walk in the city, this was MOVING. I might get swept away! I tried to touch it but it was so cold my paw hurt. I started to panic because dad told mum to keep walking and I'd follow. Ha! I'm not falling for your human trick dad. So I did the next best thing. I sat on my bum and looked a mum with the biggest puppy doggie eyes I could muster. It worked. She broke and came running back to me. She picked me up and carried me across the water. She's a sucker sometimes... actually most of the times but it works out for me so I'm not complaining. What a great day! I was completely pooped after that. That was the best.
Then Sunday happened and it started raining again. When will the rain stop? Oh well, I really can't complain too much, I spent all day Saturday hanging out on the beach with my parents. I'm feeling better now after remembering out beach trip. Stay tuned! I'll probably have more to write about when this weather clears up.
