Pond News

Mom and I walked around the pond this weekend, and Mom took along our camera. So here's a picture of me checking out those silly geese out on the pond. There are duckies out there, too.


The geeses were pretty quiet for this walk. Some geese over at the next pond (we don't walk past there) were honking up a storm, but the ones on our pond weren't. I did catch some geese getting ready to poop all over my sidewalk, though, so I chased them back to the water. Don't poop on my sidewalk!

And look! My puddle was back! I ran right through the middle of it. Mom was not amused, but I loved it!

Yeah for my puddle! I love that thing!

Yeah for My Pond!

Mom took me for a walk around the pond tonight! We haven't done that since I had my icky seizure over there a couple of weeks ago. Mom was scared 'cause she didn't think I should walk very far. I missed the pond, though. I had SO much stuff to sniff tonight! I made sure I checked out every tree -- even the ones that I don't normally sniff!

My cool puddle was back, too, 'cause it rained today. I was nice to Mom, though, and I walked around it like a good girl. She was so happy. I did wipe my feets in lots of mud, though. That didn't make Mom so happy. A doggie can only do so much, though...

The Puddle!!!

We walked around the pond today...and I played in my big puddle! This is the puddle that I like to play in, but Mom gets upset with me when I do. The puddle was really, really big today, too, 'cause of all of the rain that we've had. It was so cool! Mom didn't even get after me too much for playing in it. I think that's just 'cause she was trying to take pictures, though.

But she did get pretty mad when I started drinking from the puddle. I don't know what the big deal is...it's just puddle water. I did that a couple of times. he he he

Here's my puddle from a distance. And then Mom took some pictures of me playing in the puddle (when she wasn't yelling at me for drinking the puddle water...).

Of course I had to sniff the garbage can in the middle of the water. Wiped my feets there for a bit, too.

How I Embarrassed Mom

This was SO funny that I just have to share...

Yesterday after Mom got home from work we went for a walk around our pond. There's this spot where the sidewalk is all flooded from the rain we had this week. It's a deep puddle, and it goes into the grass on both sides of the sidewalk, too. Mom tried to get me to walk around the puddle, but what fun is that?! I went right through it! So she starts in on me...

"Lexi, get out of the puddle! You're getting your belly all wet. LEXI-LOU, get over here!"

I finally got tired of her nagging and tugging on my leash, so I jumped out of puddle near where Mom was. I waited until we were almost all of the way past the puddle, though. So then Mom keeps going...

"Oh, now that did you a lot of good. You splashed through the entire thing and jumped out at the end! You soaked yourself!"

And THAT'S when Mom realized that there was a guy on a bike right behind us. He was laughing as he rode past. Mom was SO embarrassed. She said that he was laughing 'cause she was fighting with a tiny doggie over a big puddle. I guess not all people talk to their doggies like Mom talks to me, either. I thought it was hysterical!

Oh, What a Beautiful Day!

I had such a cool day yesterday!

Mom took me for a walk around the pond early in the morning. She usually doesn't take me to the pond when I wake her up early like that. She did yesterday, though. It was a beautiful day, too. There was this huge puddle over there -- the sidewalk was flooded from all of the rain we've had. You know what I did? Mom tried to get me to walk around the water, but I decided to go right through the middle! I got all wet up to my sides. My belly was completely soaked. Mom couldn't believe I did that because I hate to take baths. This was different, though. It was a puddle! I am a dog, after all...

Last night, Mom took me to the park, too. I got to go for two long walks in one day! How cool is that?! We hadn't gone to the park in a long time. There was all sorts of stuff to sniff there. Lots of doggies had been at the park, so I had to leave my mark on a lot of stuff. I love going to the park!

Today it was back to work for Mom and I, though. Bummer. Oh, well. I'm gonna keep thinking about that park...I hope she takes me again soon!
