Diggin' it

Hello kiddies! Rosco here...reporting in.

First, I had my first "advanced obedience" class last Thursday. Boy, I've never seen so many dogs in one class trying to learn! I think mom said there were like 30...counting their people, that's like 60! Craziness. There was one dog...must've been a young guy, but he was bouncing and trying to jump on anyone that walked by. Amateur! He just didn't know how to behave. I'm sure we will straighten him out as the class goes on. I'll post pictures when we do something fun and mom can remember the camera.

Second...I think I'm in the doghouse tonight. You see, mom bought this nice new couch cover. Apparently she does not like a nice thick coating of my white hair on her dark green couch. I personally think white and green look nice together, but whatever! Anyway, she got it on Friday and was so excited, she put it right on. Well, it certainly did look nice all weekend. Then she gets a phone call right before she leaves work...it was dad ratting me out. "YOUR dog did something to the new cover". I heard him say it, just like that! Why am I not his dog anymore?? I don't get it....anyway, mom comes home. I am my bouncy self...and she takes a gander at that nice new couch cover...

See? It doesn't look so bad from far away does it? Oh...mom wanted to get closer...darn!


Ok, so it doesn't look "new". But it wasn't me! I swear! This crazy dog broke in the back fence and in the back door. I told him to stay off the nice new couch cover but he wouldn't listen! He just started digging it right up!!! Does this look like a guilty face?

I tried my best innocent face...but I can't lie to mom. I did it!! I'm guilty!!

Ahhhh....I feel much better after that. I feel like a weight has been lifted! What have you guys done to be in "the doghouse"?? Did you feel little better after you were found out? Did they know it was you?

Lots of love,

Rosco

back to school!

So, Mom and Dad went to a meeting last night at the training club where I took Beginning Obedience. Turns out they are going to become members so I can take classes all year-round! I loved going to class...meeting new dogs, new people...impressing everyone with my devilish charm...haha. Mom says I need something to do besides looking out the window and warning people away when they are at work. I hope to impress them, and you guys with the pictures Mom will no doubt post for me!

And they are still going to send me to daycare to see my buds two times a week. Gosh, I sure did luck out. I don't remember where I lived before them, but I remember the shelter and boy was that no fun! 3 months in a cage....no thank you! I'd rather go to school and sleep on the warm comfy couch.

So...school starts next week...if I learn anything cool, I'll let you all know!

Lots of love,

Rosco

Mom and Dad have snow days!

I didn't know that adults get snow days! Mom and Dad will be home with me all day because of the snow...I love snow! Maybe they will take me outside in the snow...I bet they will! wooooohooooo!!! Anyway, Mom isn't too impressed with the snow here in C-bus. She is from Buffalo...she says it takes feet of snow to impress her! I dunno...I've only ever been in C-bus...I'm pretty impressed with 6 inches!

And now pups....prepare to be amazed with my super cool graduation pictures!

Here I am just before we started...my Dad is giving me a pep talk!

And then here I am on a "stand-stay"....Mom was really proud with this one. She says that I'm such a happy and bouncy guy, I wanna see everyone who comes over to me, not stand there and do nothing! I would not make a good show dog...haha!

haha...my tail is still wagging! And then here I am on my "sit-stay" which I broke right after this picture. I think I was nervous with mom snapping all these pictures!

I even got a diploma and a 4th place ribbon! I guess if I hadn't broken the "sit-stay" I would have gotten a 1st or 2nd place ribbon. Mom says that's ok...she loves me just the same. How lucky am I?? Well kids, I'm off to play in the snow!

Oooooooh.....don't tell my mom, but I am sneaking this picture onto my blog. It is mom all dressed up for the snow. hehe....she puts these crazy pictures of me on the internet, now it is her turn! Enjoy pups!

Lots of love,

Rosco

oop...I'm still here

Howdy pups (and FuFu)!

No worries, I'm still here....just a bit AWOL. Mom has been super busy and she won't let me blog on my own...something about the crazies and weirdos on the internet. She never knows where I might end up, so I have to wait for her to help a pup out! I dunno why she worries so much...but I guess that's what moms are for :-P

Anyways, I graduated beginner's obedience class and I'm on my way to being a member of the training club, so I can do all sorts of fun classes all the time! Mom took tons of pictures and she promises to help me this week so you can see me (and some friends!).

Hope everypup is doing good! I'll be visiting blogs, so look out!

Lots of love,

Rosco
