Lots of News


Howdy y'all!! Coco and I have a lot to tell you because a lot has happened since our last message. But first, we've agreed to get something off our chests. We don't really type the blogs you read. Coco and I gave it our best shot, but with paws that are more like swim paddles, it was impossible for us to use a typewriter or word processor.

Yeah, and we can't write either as we can't hold a pen.

True, true! Coco even tried to use her snout, but that's too big to type with and the keys got oh so sticky, ugh!

So we've been using a middleman who takes our dictation and types for us. It's not the perfect solution, but it sort of works, except he's been so busy lately that he has been hard to corral.

OK, the really big news is that we have a new family living with us. A day or two after vacation the folks disappeared for a few hours and returned with our NBF (New Best Friend) Freckles and a whole slew of puppies. Puppies are sort of like little dogs, but they don't play, they just eat, sleep, and do nasty in the house. Phew!

Freckles is the Momma and she and I hit it off right from the start. Jodie is a bit stuffy and she growls a bit, but you already know what a bitch SHE can be.

You will notice that Freckles and five of her puppies are Chocolate, just like me. There are three other puppies that are Black, like.........well I suppose like their Dad. Note that there are no Yellow puppies, as in Yellow Lab, like Jodie. This makes Jodie the odd one in the house and perhaps that's why she is in a mood.

Nonsense!!! I'm not in a mood, but have you noticed how much attention they get. A couples of high pitched squeals and the folks go running. I NEVER got that much attention, even when I had the place to myself. AND, I don't think that they are that cute. They've been here almost two weeks and it's only the last couple of days that they can move very well. And what was all that attention yesterday with the people from the paper. The big oaf with all the cameras must have taken 200 pictures of the little crawlers.

Well, I'm enjoying the little critters, and Freckles is a dear! You haven't noticed that we get all the meals and cookies that we used to get AND.....we also get a cookie when Freckles gets a cookie. Plus, the little critters are starting to take to Auntie Coco.

Well, I admit that it's a lot more interesting around here with the new canines on the block. And I do worry about Freckles as she looks so beat from time to time.

AND, I have to admit that I wouldn't want all those little ones chewing on ME all day. I don't know how that girl does it.

Well, she's a CHOCOLATE Lab, and everyone knows that chocolate labs are special.

I think you're spreading it on kind of thick so I'm going to sign off for a while. Later folks!

Yeah, Later1
