HELLO EVERYONE..IT'S ME, YOUR FAVORITE DOG!

And yes, I did say dog since I officially passed the 1 Year mark in February...I know what you are thinking...where was the 1st Birthday party with all the treats and gifts...yeah I didn't get one of those. Oh well, maybe it is like Christmas if you are bad you don't get anything. That sucks!

Before you jump to any conclusions...no I am not in trouble here either, just figured since mom and dad seem to be so busy working that I would post at least a little something for all my loyal followers who have been left in the dark lately.

As you can see I am having fun playing around and rolling in mudd holes, yeah they thought they were pretty smart here lately but I showed them! Dad had this great idea to go to the back of our housing development where there are still some bare lots, that way he could throw the ball further and I would have to run a lot more than I get to in the yard. I will give him some props...it was a great idea and I do enjoy getting out of the yard and being able to poop somewhere else (like someone else's yard...no I don't do that).

So, back to the great idea... yeah mom and dad took me down there and we were throwing the ball around and running, having a great time when I suddenly stumbled onto this nice mudd hole..well I knew mom and dad couldn't really see it from where they were so I decided to test the water..just a little drink first, then got my feet wet and then decided why not just go for it..so I laid down and started rolling around in the mudd. Boy did it feel good...nice and cool and mushy. And although I had to get out once mom and dad realized what I was doing, I did not get in trouble at all.

As for mom and dad, well I don't really see them too much and usually only one at a time. I guess they try to not always work at the same time which I must say is nice for me to cut down on the time that I have to be put up....that time is so hard for me to not find something to get into which always leads to trouble. I hear them talking about how busy the tanning salon is (I don't really get the point of a tanning salon, maybe because I am covered in hair that doesn't really tan). Supposedly this is the busiest time of the year for people tanning....I hope that means spring and summer are coming, which will mean more playing outside....and maybe more mudd holes.

I have learned something new that I really enjoy doing....going for rides in dads truck...I even started jumping inside on my own, figured dad looked like he was straining a little to lift me in, I do still ride in the front seat of course, but I enjoy getting out and seeing the sights. I get to go almost every night with dad down to the tanning salon to pick up two big basket fulls of the things that dad always has to use to dry me off when I get wet or muddy....I think you may call them towels. Yeah I guess the dryer that they have at the tanning salon isn't really drying anything anymore and since they have been so busy with all the people the only way they can catch up on the towels is to bring them home each night to wash and dry them.

Well I think that is all that is new right now...I am staying out of trouble..of course..and mom and dad are just busy working all the time. I think dads website business is picking up too as he seems to carry his computer everywhere with him. I have included a picture of the front door of the tanning salon in case you didn't follow your instructions from the last post and check out the Tiki Tan website.....looks great with the new logo that Dale designed.


Ok, until next time.....I will try to stay out of trouble but lets be realistic here....it is hard for me and although I have past the 1 year mark...I am still very much a puppy..just a really big one!

Love Brutus
