"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"

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.

I Did What?

You're blaming me?
Just because I am sitting next to this fun roll of toilet paper
that kept on teasing me, you're blaming me?
Couldn't it have been the cat?
You know how she tries to implicate me all the time.
She is devious.
I am your friend. Oh, you need to use the toilet?
Well good I'll move.

I've left lots of paper on the floor for you.

  

Sometimes I See With My Nose

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?

Oh Please, Please, Read My Mind.

I know I don't have the right words to tell you what I want.
I can make noises but that doesn't always work.
Most of the time you guess.
It's feed me, go for a walkie, cookie (oh that's sweet),
pee or poop time or something like that.
But when I just want attention, a little head rub y'know,
do you get it?

I wish you spoke dog.

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 Can Feel The Wind In My Ears"

CLICK HERE TO BID

 I love running. 

I stay low to the ground (what choice do I have?) 

for maximum speed and then my ears catch the breeze and it's almost LIFT OFF for me!

Flap! Flap!  You can hear me comin'.

     And I get to choose any runway I want.

    

Pre Wash And Final Rinse

So after dinner's over
and our pleading eyes are upon you,
you reluctantly lower the plates
to the floor.

Then the fun begins.

Our tongues devour anything
that's left.

Not an inch of plate is missed.
Yumm.

Hey, why bother with the dishwasher.

Ears Up

No other breed looks like I do.

Once you dock our ears,
we have these super pointy ears
that perk up whenever someone calls our name.
What?

Did you say, "Let's go!"
I'm ready.

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.

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?

"Do I look worried?"

When I hear the word "car" or "cookie",
my ears go up.
So do my eyebrows. They're not really eyebrows but you get the idea.

Some people think,
"Hey that dog looks worried."

Not so.

Haven't a care in the world.

Unless they don't let me out to pee.

I Can't Get Rid of My Wrinkles

Do I look worried?
Well, yes I guess I do.
But I come by it honestly.
Years ago I was asked to do something I didn't understand.
It was "sit" or "stay" or something, I don't remember.
And so I wrinkled up my brow to try to grasp what was being asked of me.

And it stuck.
