Mine. And Yours. (by Ojo)

Mine!

(This is my new squeaky pink guy, except he doesn't squeak any more because I chewed him too hard, but I still love him!)

Cobi's!

(This is Cobi's new Puffie Two, that she loves very much because he is like Puffie One except a bit different. And new!)

My toy! Cobi's toy!

Play time!

Daisy who zooms, again! (by Ojo)

Hi hi hi! Ojo here!

Today we met up with a friend...

Hey Daisy, how are you doing today? Wanna zoom???

You do? Hurray!

One... two... three... GO!!!

Daisy zoomed in the short grass!

Daisy zoomed in the tall grass!

Daisy zoomed in the dry grass! (We zoomed together!)

Cobi said it was too hot. She did not zoom. (That is Daisy's tail in her photo, because Daisy was zooming past!)

I must say that we both enjoyed Daisy's company very much today. She was very polite, and a good part of our pack... Plus she was FUN!

Daisy, I hope we can zoom again with you sometime soon!

My Gotcha Day! (by Ojo)

Hi hi hi! Ojo here!

Today is my Gotcha Day!

My people Gotcha'd me two whole years ago! That's practically forever! I have lived with them now for longer than I've ever lived anywhere else, and I think it might be forever more into the future too!

That's me and my youngest person in the field up above, and here is me with my youngest person in the Lake!

(Look, I am swimming! Aren't I amazing?? Cobi does not swim so this is something that I get to do alone with my youngest person!)

I used to live in the place called Shelter. Now I live in a place that has lakes for swimming in! Ratties for catching! (Right out our back door!) Forests for exploring! Fields for running in! Good food every day! Training games and treats! And cuddles on the couch with my people!

I love my family. Can I stay with them forever?

(I can??? Really??? HURRAY!!!)

(And I hope all Dogs are Gotcha'd by families like mine!)

Sun and cool grass makes us happy! (by Ojo)

Hi hi hi! Ojo here!

Sun and cool grass makes me feel happy!

Sun and cool grass makes Cobi feel happy!

Does sun and cool grass make YOU feel happy?

Wordless Wednesday 06/10/15 - Old Dog Brody

Are you ready?

Ojo's mouth is ready!

I am ready!

Ojo is ready!

One, two, three...

HOSE!!!

HOSE!!!

Hurray for HOSE!!!

We sing a song to Summer!

Oh, we sing a song to Summer! Bark bark, barwooo!!

Summer, you are almost here!
You are the almost-too-hot sunshine!
The almost-too-tall grasses!
The almost-too-many daisies!

I can taste you in the air! Feel you on my fur! Smell you in my nose!

Oh, we sing a song to Summer! Bark bark, barwooo!! (Pant pant pant!)

Summer, you are almost here!

You are grasses and daisies and sunshine, oh my!

You are the Buzz-Buzz-Bees that annoy us so!
You are the pollen and the dry dirt and the hard earth!

You are the many living things to eat!
You are the grass seeds stuck in my teeth!

Oh summer, we sing a song to you! You are almost here!

Hijacked by Brody

Hello friends! Yes, it is me - Brody!

The people call me "old", but I prefer the word "wise". This is very important, because I was wise (and smart, and clever) enough to be able to hijack the Dog Blog. This came after I hijacked Cobi and Ojo's person.

That is correct, I hijacked their person and she took me on a Walk! Just ME! Just Brody. Hah. Who's old now?

We went to the Lake. This is because Nature is making HOT, like summer.

So we strolled (not because I'm old, but because we wanted to stroll) along the flat paths (not because I'm old, but because we felt like walking somewhere flat), and took lots of breaks for sniffing (not because I'm old, but because there were many interesting smells).

Then we turned around and strolled, slowly, back to the car.

I loved the lake! So many smells in the breeze!

But now it is time for my nap. Not because I am old, but because I enjoy naps. That is all.

I am an alligator! (by Ojo)

Hi hi hi! Ojo here!

I am an alligator!! Glug... glug... glug...

It's all about position! (by Ojo)

Hi hi hi! Ojo here!

When chasing a Ball with Dog Friends, it is important to be strategic about your position! For example, here I am perfectly posed...

...to get in front...

...and get to the Ball first! Hurray for ME!

My Stick! (by Ojo)

Hey everyone, I found a stick!

Ball dancing!

We have Balls!
Balls make us feel happy!
Balls make dance!

And run!

Oh Dead Snake! (by Ojo)

Hi hi hi! Ojo here!

I found a DEAD SNAKE! The best part is that it waits for me! Each time we come back to this field, there it is! And I get to play with it again! And again! And again!

Oh Dead Snake!

Once you were alive!
But now you are dead.
And dried up. Crunchy. Leathery.

I am sorry you are dead.
But I am happy that you are here!
In the field!
For me to roll on!
And play with!
And chew on!

Oh Dead Snake, I love you!
