Who'd a thunk it? Chuck is fond of the holidays

Merry F'in Christmas!

Start laughing now

Chuck seems to be having some pee issues. The issues being that he can't hold it or forgets to go, or is stubborn old man. So - start giggling now, he gets to wear a belly band.


I ordered an extra large - in blue flame

This has got to be easier than cleaning up pee from the kitchen floor every couple of days. Hopefully it will make Harley happier. When we come home she slinks around all ashamed. I wonder if it is her doing the pee'ing? Perhaps we also need the girl version, the doggy diaper.

This is all so gross. Why do I like dogs? Chuck spent his walk this morning eating all the cat poop in the neighborhood (we live next door to the crazy cat lady who feeds all the ferals). I really wish he would have just peed.

*&$#!@* Time Change

So the old dog doesn't understand the time change thing. He has a schedule and he wants us to stick to it. I think this is actually Jenna's rant more than mine. He bugs her in the morning (before I drag my sorry ass out of bed) when she is back in her little house doing her own thing. She loves her little bit of time to herself in the morning and Chuck keeps wanting breakfast, wanting in, wanting out .....

He has also taken to waking up in the middle of the night, which inevitably pisses off one of us or most probably both of us. He just chirps his squeaky bark until someone gets up at 3:30 am and then watches him wander around the backyard while he forgets why he wanted to go out there.

I'm not sure how to fix this one - more walks probably. Keep the old guy too exhausted to move! 2.5 blocks should work. That will take, oh, about 40 minutes.

Last week I took both dogs out for a morning walk and as we got around the block I saw our neighbor jogging towards us. By the time we got to the end of that block (the long part!) he came around again. Both dogs did their business on the short part so he caught up one more time, and then by the time we got home he was walking up onto his porch. We were little speed demons! (and who just jogs around the block 4 times anyway? branch out see what is one street over!)

Happy Bee, Mad Bee, Squished Bee

So Jenna and I had a party for Halloween and I dressed up as a killer bee (add some camo pants and a gun to a bee costume and it is a killer bee!), Jenna was a killer bee keeper. The next day I had fun dressing the pets up in the bee costume.

Chuckie boy worked the costume as a squashed bee - I would hate to see the window he ran into.







Diesel was feeling the Killer Bee - I was a bit afraid of him for a while after this ...

Sweet Harley girl was my Happy Bee - don't you just want to kiss her?
