Edgrr's Big Day

I didn't want to steal the big man's burpday thunder this week but the truth is I had a big traveling adventure of my own!  It was the greatest day ever!  Maybe even better than when I mooched my way into my new house.


First, meet my new bestie!  This is TUCKER! He's a "foster dog" who lives with my other real world besties.  I use quotes because his foster dad is the worst foster dad ever because he has like a million foster dogs who never left. (OK, quite a few who have left).  Though he did manage to get rid of OBST by giving him to us. That's how bad OBST was!  He didn't even want him!  


I played coy at first but Tucker and I did some pretty epic zoomies.


Epic for sure.


And then I met Tucker's sibbies Tuchunk, I mean Tuchuck on the left and Narra on the right. I liked her a lot because she's a familiar sheppy shape!


And then we all got in a van for a ride!  Where are we going????  (Note: Tucker and I barfed 5 times between the two of us but that was not documented on film for some reason).  Where was the barfmobile headed???


TO HERD SHEEPS!


Me and Narra (who is a total pro) and Tucker got to do herdings!  


I was really cautious at first but got into it when I relaxed a bit.


My ape said she wishes I was this calm and methodical at home!  Whatevs.


Tucker is totes a madman and was totally into it.  And I wasn't too shabby for a little guy.

Look!  They listen to me!!!!


The MIGHTY CORGI.  (Someone sez I've been a bit big for my britches.  WHAT IS SHE TALKING ABOUT?)


On the way home Tucker and I were sleepy (and still barfy) boos.


And now we're like total awesome herding friends.  I can't wait to play again!  I've been studying hard watching this documentary.





And I should extend a big THANK YOU to my buddies over at Lucky Skies for taking me along with them even though I barfed. And especially thanks to their ape who had this PAWESOME idea and took us all in his big van.

A Grab Bag of Good Times

Things have been very sad around here lately so I thought I would take this opportunity to wish Sophie's ape a happy happy birthday and share with you some of the many things that happened that were not sad.

First, my ape has become obsessed with photographically documenting my every cute moment which is every moment which means I do not get a moment's rest from the puparazzi.

I can sort of understand, though, as this is a devastatingly handsome face. I'm sure this is how Angelina Jolie feels. It's not easy being beautiful.


A boy cannot even get a belly rub in peace! (Look at my pawesome corgi ears, though!)

Now things that happened other than the relentless pursuit of the puparazzi. I got a package in the mail!

Pawsonalized snacks! Can you see who is on the bag?

LinkYes! The only thing tastier than delicious snacks from The Baker's Dog is being able to look at a picture of myself as I eat them!

I approve.

And my picky sissy goes goofy for them.



And then me and my sibs were caught in the act of conspiring. Our lips are sealed as to what we were up to.

Nothing involving a plan to hypnotize the apes were our amazing eyes. I swear. (Though lamb shanks were purchased. I'm just saying.)


I need to beware of working with this crew, though. They are not reliable partners.

And then I let my brudder go to the dog park to play with his buddy Tuchuck and be ignored by Chuck's sister Narra.

Chuck brought his brudder, er, foster brudder (right guys?) Theo to the park for his coming out party! (I mean coming out in public, right guys?) And now Oscar has a NEW BESTIE!

Oscar loves him some cookie faces.

Especially the new guy.

I think they are going to run away to Vermont and get married.

If Oscar can catch him.


But, Theo, before you get too confident about your love that dare not bark its name, just remember--there's no love....


Like brudderly love.

The drawback of the puparazzi--I get caught sharing the snuggle ball with my brudder.

Happy burpday, Sophie's ape!

What the? Weekend

So my ma ape had a Con For Aunts down in Bawlmer this Saturday so she could not go to the SPCA and I was STOKED because it would mean one weekend without my hussy of a ma ape trolling about town for other dogs. But then she vanished on Sunday and when I looked at her camera I found things that were shocking and appalling.

It's my friend Tuchuck!

LinkHe and his sissy Narra were doing agilities like Mango's bro Dexter! Uh, Narra has asked me not to speak of her experience, though Saturday she got BLUE RIBBONS and that's all I'm going to say. And today it was my ma ape's fault that Tuchuck got distracted by her and almost ran off the course at the beginning! See, ma ape, you are not helping so come home!

But there were more shocking things. Corgis!

And their bunny butts!

Those short leggers can jump!

And maybe even fly. (Show offs!)

OMD! Is that OBST?


No, this dog did what he was told with minimal screaming and carrying on.

This girl--a Belgian Sheppy--looked like Ethel with long locks!

This is Garbo the Boo Mastiff!

This was my ma ape's fave.

He's a MangoDog! A (Slightly Less Than) Relentlessly Huge Mastiff! And when he got flustered doing weave poles he decided to take a moment to compose himself and laid down. Good boy! I don't know how he got so far off the ground but I'm working on a theory of Mastiff Gravity that I'm sure will win me another Nobel Prize.


And look what they found right next to where Narra and Tuchuck were chilling! It's the component parts of a corgador or, as I like to call it, Deconstructed Wally!

And the labby would lick lick lick the corgi's back. Just like Oscar cleans my face and ears for me.

So here are some raspberries to you, ma ape for neglecting ME for this fancy agilities dogs though I might forgive you if you give us more cornish hens for breakfast.


Next week my ma ape will be back to her hussy-like ways AND she's going to decorate for her favorite holiday--Wall-O-Ween--so I'll be neglected again. Woe is Wally.
