I'm back!

Sorry I've been MIA the last few weeks.  We havent really been up to too much.  Every Sunday the weather has been pretty nasty so I haven't been out too much.  I've got my walks and all, but haven't gotten to see the calf or go out to the pasture to play.  I'm hoping now that spring is here, I will get to go to the pasture more often.  My parents went to the big city on Sunday and left me all alone.    I made the best of it.  Mom had made up a Kong for me and left me with a bone and some rawhide.  They were gone for what felt like forever.  I had started wondering if they were coming back.  I was happy to see Dad but miffed at Mom since she's the one that told me I had to stay behind.  I didn't stay , ad long though.  They brought me a HUGE rawhide bone and they even brought a tag home for me with my name and address on it.  I did get to run an errand with Dad on Saturday.  He was supposed to be taking me out to potty and next thing I know, we are in the truck, going to the convenience store.  I was good for once.  I didn't try  to get out of the truck at the store and when we got home, I didn't rush Dad to get out of the truck.  Dad was proud of me.   Anyway, I think I'll go play.  I hope everyone is doing well!

Making New Friends.

It's been pretty boring this week.  With all the ice on the ground, it made it unsafe for my walks.  Monday we were supposed to have a blizzard, but that didn't pan out.  Just a little more snow.  Thursday was busy though.  I got to see the plumber again!  The first time I met him, I had been with my parents a week or so.  I wouldnget between him and mom, but that was it.  This time, I barked at him the whole time.  Mom used it as an opportunity to teach me the "quiet" command.  By the time he left, I was wanting to play with him.  Dad also found me a visitor.  Wally found dad at work and Wally followed him to the house.  I was a little intimidated at first because Wally is so big!  I was looking out the window this morning and noticed Wally walking along the street, so I convinced mom to take me out.  Wally and I played tug rope for 30 minutes.  I love making new friends.  Now I have 2.  Tucker and Wally!
