I Love Chewies

Mom and Dad give us chewies all the time. Sasha and I usually argue about who gets what one and who gets the last one. Mom says they are good for our teeth and gums. We really don't care about that. We just like chewing on them. Mom says they're better for me than her pens, but her pens are fun to chew on too. That usually makes her mad though so the chewies are better.
Sasha's birthday is next month. I hope Mom and Dad get her a big bone like they did for me. I'll let her have what she wants, but she's little so she won't eat too much of it. Sasha is also getting a haircut tomorrow. It think it's funny because she hates it so much. I hope Dad takes me when he goes to drop her off and pick her up cuz I'LL GET TO RIDE IN THE TRUCK! Aunt Cassie will also be here tomorrow night so I don't know how much I'll get to post for awhile. I'll get on when I can though.
BYE!

We Went For A Ride

Last night Mom and Dad loaded some boxes into the truck and I was a little nervous. I don't like moving and it looked like that's what was going on. Sasha told me not to worry, her and Mom have moved a lot and there's a ton more boxes involved. Sasha was right. Mom had cleaned out the spare bedroom for Aunt Cassie to stay in and needed a spot to store the boxes so Grandma said she could store them in her basement and Sasha and I got to go when they took them over!! I ran all over Grandma's yard and sniffed everything. Sasha started to run off towards the road and didn't come when she was called so she had to go on the leash but I didn't! After the boxes were in the house we got to go inside and we ran all over the upstairs. We didn't go in the basement though. We don't like the stairs. They're too slippery. After a fe minutes of talking to Grandma we had to go home. This time I got to ride in the back up on the deck. I put my head through the window to sniff the air, but Dad was afraid I would get my nose stuck or squished if the cab and the back cover flexed funny. I still had fun. I love riding anywhere in the truck!!

Sasha The Hunting

Yesterday when Mom let us out at lunch I caught a squirrell that fell off the wire and then Sasha got it from me. Mom called us in and at first couldn't figure out what Sasha had in her mouth. Mom didn't know I had anything to do with the squirrel so shhhhhh! Anyway, when Mom figured out what it was she started yelling at Sasha to drop it. Sasha wanted to take it in the house really bad, but Mom didn't want her to. I don't blame her! It's a dead animal! I'm all about going hunting, but I don't like dead animals in my mouth! Mom kept yelling at Sasha to drop it. Mom forgot I'm the one that drops things when told....most of the time. Sasha wouldn't drop it so Mom smacked her butt and she dropped it and Mom used her foot to block Sasha from the squirrel and scooted her into the house. Sasha really wanted to get it so I followed right behind her and while Mom moved it away from the doorway I made sure Sasha didn't get out. Mom called Dad and he came home a few minutes later to get rid of it real quick so it wasn't there when she let us out after work. We searched the yard for it when Mom let us out but we couldn't find it. Sasha was really upset, but Mom was glad it was gone. Mom still won't let Sasha give her kisses. That's okay, it gives me more chances to give Mom kisses. Mom said she saw Sasha eating poop before she left for work so the squirrel sort of made it official that Sasha's tongue wasn't allowed near anybody for awhile. Mom says she doesn't understand why the prissy dog is the one with gross stuff in her mouth. I guess being prissy doesn't mean you're very smart.
I'm going to go pick on Gunnar now before Mom gets home.

Pictures Are Ready

Mom has the pictures fro the August trip finally up. There aren't any pictures of me so if you don't go it's ok. The link is: http://www.SprwagmanAdventures.bravehost.com and click on the 2006 Trips tab and they're at the top. It looks like they had fun, but not as much as if I had been there.

Now Dad's Hurt!

Dad was working on a Jeep for a guy this weekend and he cut his finger really bad. Mom wasn't feeling good because she started some new medication and helping Dad clean his hand made her feel worse. She was supposed to have the room for Aunt Cassie ready over the weekend, but after that, she curled up on the couch and I curled up under her on the floor. Dad cleaned out his cut and put a big bandaid on it and then went back to work on the Jeep. Mom agreed with me that he should have taken a break. I would have made sure he was taking a break, but I needed to stay inside with Mom to make sure she was okay. It was tough making sure everyone was okay all weekend. Finally, Sunday Dad used the big brown bottle on his finger. Obviously my cut was better because he didn't even act like it hurt him. He did it again last night and same thing! He said his is started to heal pretty good, but Mom thinks that's just because he doesn't want to go to the doctor.
Mom's also been making sure the spare bedroom door is shut tight so we can't get into stuff in the spare room. Gunnar gave our secret away that we could get in there. He spoiled the fun for everybody! I got it open today though. She said she's going to try to finish the room tonight and from looking at the mess, it looks like I'm not going to get much attention from mom tonight. There's stuff everywhere! She's feeling much better now so maybe she'll be able to do it. I'll help her as much as I can. I'll make sure Gunnar stays out of the way, too.
Mom will be home in an hour so I better make sure I can get the door to shut.

I'm Bored

Dad didn't come home for lunch today because his new job is keeping him very busy, but he'll be home around 5 so that's cool and Mom couldn't come home either because she had a lucky pot. I have no idea what that means, but she takes food to work once a month for a birthday lucky pot. I gues everybody brings food and they add it to a pot or something and make something weird. I wish Mom would finish this room because it's a pain getting the door open to come post. They keep the door shut because Gunnar likes to come in and mess with stuff. They think they're keeping me out too so I don't get the stuffed animals, but the door doesn't latch very good and I'm big enough to open and close it myself.
It's almost time for kids to get out of school so I have to go bark at them if they get near my yard now.

New Stuff

Mom and Dad have a mercahndise shop with 4-wheeling stuff and Mom's art. Mom said last night that there were new colors for the baby stuff you should check them out. They're really cute. Here's the pictures and the link to the store:

I haven't been able to get into this room to post because Mom is trying to get it ready for Aunt Cassie to come stay with us for awhile. I'm so excited! She can pay attention to Sasha while I get all the attention from Mom and Dad. Woohoo!
I better go see what Gunnar's doing now. I've been trying to keep him in line for Mom and Dad.

Mom Has Pictures Up

Mom has some of the pictures posted on http://www.SprwagmanAdventures.bravehost.com. It looks like they had a lot of fun. I really wish I could have gone, but it sort of sounds like it was a good thing I wasn't there. Poor Mom kept switching vehicles since the Big Jeep wasn't there and there was lots of rain which meant I wouldn't have been able to run around as much. It's okay, I'm getting ready for November. That's hopefully when the first pheasant hunting trip will be. October Dad will go for deer and I'll have to take care of Mom and then in November he goes for elk and I'll have to take care of Mom then too. I can't wait to go hunt for pheasants and rabbits!!

Friday was AWESOME!

Dad took me bird hunting Friday and I had lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of fun!!!! We went on a drive that wasn't too far and we parked and I got out and started sniffing around and then we walked a little ways and guess what I saw! A CREEK!!!!! It wasn't a very deep creek so I couldn't go swimming, but I layed in it and rolled around. It was a blast!! Then I had to get back to work. I walked aroudn with Dad for awhile. There were a bunch of squirels running around and they were starting to annoy me so I chased one. After a couple minutes I realized Dad was going to be mad at me. Dad finally found me and yelled at me and said he was glad to see me. I guess for awhile he thought I was gone gone. I sort of didn't know where I was so it's agod thing Dad did find me. Dad still doesn't know what I chased. The squirels didn't annoy me anymore after that because they saw me chase their friend off. Well, when we started abck to the truck so I could get somethign to drink Dad saw a bear paw print on top of one of his. It was a small young bear, but still not good. We weren't having any luck in that spot anyway so we got in the truck and moved to a different spot. I really want to rest after the chase, but Dad told me no way. we got out at the new spot and walked for awhile and dad shot at 3 birds and got 1. I went over to is and stood by it so he knew where it was. He put it in the bird bag and we went to find some more. We couldn't find any so Dad decided to do some training. He threw the bird and told, me to fetch it. I knew he wanted me to bring the bird to him instead of staying by it and I tried a couple times. Have you ever had a dead bird in your mouth? I know I'm a dog and I lick my own butt and everything, but I do not like dead birds in my mouth! They're yucky and they feel funny. The other times I went and say by the bird and once I layed down to show Dad where it landed, but I was really tired.
On the way home I tried to get comfortable in the truck but really couldn't because I was so tired. Then Dad turned the air conditioner on and it blew right on me and I fell asleep until we got back to town and went to tell Mom we were home. She was happy to see me, especially after Dad told her I almost got lost. I told her hi and I loved her and then curled up back on my seat. I slept good the rest of the afternoon and the next day.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR PHEASANT SEASON!!!!!!!
