Big Yard and Little Boy

Dang it! Joan left me again! Last week - not long after I told you about my morning vomiting problem, Joan packed me up. I knew she was leaving and bringing me when I saw her bring my bed into the kitchen. Wow, did I get crazy wild because I wanted to know where we were going. Sometimes she takes me on long trips. This time, though, we drove not too far away to the house with the big yard and little boy. The little boy is Will and his humans in charge are Lew and Rachel (I guess they don't know that really it is the young people and dogs who are really in charge). I saw Will bang and talk loudly that he wanted more food and stuff like that to get his humans running to him. Ha! We love power like that. Sometimes I bark at Joan like that!

It was a good weekend over there. I got to run in the backyard, patrolling for squirrels and bunnies and people and dogs on the other side of the fence. They threw my toys for me, too. In the house, Will was a lot of fun. He likes to pet me - sometimes my toes - but I'm pretty unsure about people touching my toes because I think they are going to cut my toenails! EEKS. Will also has many loud, scary toys like a small vacuum cleaner (DOUBLE EEKS) and a train. I'm okay with them unless they come really near me. I tried to convince Rachel to let me on the couch - I gave her sad eyes - but no dice. I won't admit it, but I might have gone on the couch when they were not looking ;-). I'll deny it to my death, though.

One day they spent picking up sticks in the backyard. Joan does that, too, and I can't figure it out. Why don't they throw the sticks for me? In fact, Joan has been assembling sticks on the other side of the fence after I take a liking to them. I think it is because I chew on them because Joan always says "no" and then takes it away. She always wants me to play with my toy but I also like sticks. The weather got really warm while Joan was gone, so I also got to lay in the sun - my FAVORITE thing to do ever.

Yesterday, I heard a knock on the door and went into the kitchen to see Joan on the other side. I started wagging my tail a lot and finally Joan came inside and greeted me. Everyone was gone but Joan was walking around looking for them...duh, can't she smell that no one was there? Anyway, she got all my things and let me outside and then we went back to our house! I was so excited on the way home, I yelped in Joan's ear a few times - oops - she yelled at me.

I'm happy to be back at home so I can rest again - I'm awake so much over at Will's house! Though, today Joan took me running! I also saw that she gave me one of those pink pills - I wonder why she did that? Maybe because I've been scratching my eyes and shaking my ears - allergy time again!

It's so good to come home, isn't it? Nothing is happier than a dog at home.

I lost my handsome boy Bosco just Thursday. I hope you are loved half as much as I loved my dog. I don't know what I'll do without him. I miss him so much.
