"Crazed? Me?"

Me? Crazed? Well occasionally I do get excited.
You were going to leave me? What!!!
You forgot to feed me? What!!!
You mentioned the vet hospital? What!!!
Otherwise I am calm and relaxed.

So don't get me going now.

"Don't Laugh. It's Serious"

Click Here To Bid

Sure I needed to get your attention.
You're always on your phone or watching TV
and it isn't easy getting through to you.
I prance.
I dance.
I jump up on the couch to get a better vantage point.
But nothing gets through.
So I look incredibly sad. Like I'm sick or something.

Pity. It always works. Hey, I'm hungry.

Are You Lookin' At Me?

I don't know what you're doing over there. I am curious but also suspicious.
I don't trust easily as you know. Things are scary or dangerous or both.
I have to watch you at all times.
What?

Food? Oh, that's different.

Sometimes I See With My Nose

Click Here To Bid

Of course I'm nosey. I see with my nose. Sure the smell comes way before the actual thing, the ball,
my dinner, you after your run, the cat (ugh).
I stick my nose wherever I want and that gets
me all I need to know.
Did I smell something on the stove?
For me? Really?

Oh, it's only your dinner (sigh)

You Bet I'm Concerned.

You bet I'm concerned. It's the look I get when you start to pack the car or put
on your jacket.
Or when you mention the word vet (vet is not a nice word).
I could do the "I'm cute-what's happening" look but this one
is more serious and gives me more sympathy and reassurance.
Hey, I'm little so I have to be careful.

So what is it this time?

I Use The Pathetic Look.

Click Here To Bid

Sure I use it.
I use it all the time.
Why?
Because it works. If I want a cookie. If I want a walkie. Din-din?
You guessed it.
Does it wear out its effect? No, not at all.

They're simple folk.

"They Call Me The Hound Of The Parking Lot"

There I was, just sitting behind the wheel, something I love to do, waiting for my owner to come out from the market. I'm patient. Hey, what else is there to do? I could poop in the back seat but hey, she gets pissed when that happens. I could chew the shift handle, but who needs it?
I'll just wait, looking really cool. 

Hey, who's that poodle in the next car?

"I'm Ready For My Closeup."

    You put all sorts of accessories on me.                                            But do I care? No, not really.                                                          After all if you love me, that's all that matters, plus meal time, walkies and plenty of good rubs and hugs. 

OK. I'm ready for my closeup. 

Want a selfie?

Do Not Disturb. I'm Dreamin'

Do Not Disturb. I'm Dreamin'

I know it looks like that's all I do all day.

Sleep.

But hey, I run around, do a fair amount
of sniffing. Squirrels, birds, bugs.
It's a windfall out there.
And then when not much is happening,
I snooze and dream.
And you know you can see me whimpering or twitching.

What do you mean I snore?

"I Am Cute. Now, Where's That Cookie."

Look I didn't plan it this way. 

It comes with the breed, and yes, I'm petite, 

and yes I cuddle extremely well too.
So just a mournful look your way gets me pretty much anything I want.

Right now, it's that cookie.

I'm So Happy I Could Fly.

Oh boy, a ride in the car?
A walkie?
Did you say, "Cookie"?
Once I hear one of those wonderful words, I get excited and happy.
Can't you tell?

Does the wiggling give me away?

Sweet Pig O Mine

I may not talk but I sure am sweet.
When I grunt, or squeal, it's cute.
I'm clean after my owner ran me thru the
wash & spin cycle.
Squealy clean I might add.
Some folks just love pigs

I can understand why.

"You Talkin' To Me?"

You said my name. And I perked up my ears in acknowledgment.
You must have had some purpose.
Walkies? Cookie?
Come over and look adoringly at you?
Whatever it was,
I sure hope it's worth it.

I was having a fantastic dream.

Why Is This Dog Smiling?

Click Here To Bid

Hey, I only have a few expressions anyway.
Guarded, happy, confused and pleading.
Most of the time I choose happy. It works on both ends. Tail. Butt wiggle. Smile.
What was it you said, "Cookie"? "Walkies"? "Ride in the car"? "Dog park"? Who cares?

I'm up for it

I've Earned My Grey Hair.

             As we get older, the grey hair starts to show up, doesn't it?                                  Our walks are slower and it takes longer to get up on our feet.

 We stumble a bit and everyone notices you're just a little slower in your step.
      I've noticed it a bit about you.

Say how old are you in dog years?

"Who- Hoo-Hoo To You."

You don't always notice me in the trees.
Do you?
     I see you just fine.
     And then just when I think you aren't looking, I will ask who you are.
     After all, we don't really know each other.
So it makes sense to try to find out.
To see if we're simpatico and all that.

What did you expect me to ask?

"Why?"

Sweet Shaggy

I am just your regular shaggy dog with those sweet eyes that make you melt.

Are you melting yet? Are you in love? 

Are you motivated to get up off the couch and 

go get a cookie for the one you love? 

Think about it. 

Well? I'm waiting.

"But I am happy to see you."

CLICK HERE TO BID

I may look a bit sad but I'm not.
I'm actually glad to see you.
My face may droop
and my eyes look mopey but
I'm glad you're here again.
Want to make me smile?

A bone would do quite nicely.

Who. Is not a Question.

Anytime I make a noise,

you think I'm asking a question.

I'm not.

I'm really asking if any other owl is nearby chasing that squirrel I'm watching.

Sure don't want to collide with another owl at nite.

There are no
air traffic controllers out here.
