So I have been learning agility with the Mum and my friends Sadie and Jezi for a while now and we are having a really fun time! The Mum says I am ready to learn how to put jumps and other things together one after the other so we can start running little courses. Sometimes the outdoor furniture gets in the way but the Mum moves it and then we have fun!

This is a picture from last summer when the Mum thought maybe she would use my mat to help me learn these poll thingies, but now she has changed her mind.  I haven’t learned them much and I want to try more. It’s fun to try to figure out what in the world the Mum is trying to tell me to do. These still confuse me! But I can do the thing she calls Frame, and the Walk, and the Teeter and tunnels and all the jumps!

So we are gonna learn more and more of this fun agility stuff and I am going to run through it all. I hope the Mum will figure out how to teach me better. Sometimes I just don’t understand what she is trying to tell me, but I’ll eat the treats anyways!

Okay well this isn’t a picture of me at the Pawty because the Mum forgot her camera! But I am sleeping today on this my comfy bed because last night I ran and ran and ran and played with my doggie friends Sadie and Jezi. And Levi and Jet came too and we all had a great time!

We needed a pressure washers with cold water to cool off, but we didn’t have one, we had a pool instead though! I stepped in it a little bit but Jet and Sadie really loved the pool and were in it a lot. Jet chased butterflies too and got lots of cuddles because he is the baby and humans love babies. I don’t know why because I am cuter than baby dogs!

But that’s okay the Mum gives me lots of attention too and that’s fun the Mum is a good human even though she forgets the camera too much!

The Mum doesn’t give us nearly enough chewies at home… well, not nearly enough bully sticks chewies anyway. She says they are expensive to get for all seven of us. So we only get them once in a while but I really like the a lot!

Maybe we will get more now that a local store, Ma and Paws Bakery, sells them and they are thick and yummy from there! Maybe I can go trick or treating for bully sticks at Halloween… I should make up some Halloween invitations so people know I’m coming! Oh wait maybe that’s not how it works…

The Mum brought a pool home yesterday too, she needs to take some pictures of me in it… though I don’t get in it very much!

So here is a good picture of my brother Jet! Isn’t he just a cutie! I like him.. but he’s a bit little to play with and the Mum worries that I might jump on him so she’s been watching us play. And Muffit plays with Jet more than I do. But today us older dogs are being a bit grumpy, because it’s hot and we just want to lay around, and Jet wants to play and play. So the Mum is playing with him and hoping she’ll lose belly fat in the process! I don’t have any, I’m just right skinniness!

I’m glad the Mum is back from the trip she went on to get Jet from way back east.  It was lonely without her.  I am really being nice to Jet though, I let him take my bully stick I was chewing on yesterday. I wanted it but… I know he’s a puppy and likes to chew stuff so I was nice to him. But once he grows up I might not want to share my bully sticks anymore!

Yay my new brother is here! He is fun.. though Muffit is playing with him more than I am. The Mum says he and I will get to go out and play chase in the yard soon! The Mum says she is tired because she and my Aunt Marie had to be awake for a really long time, then they had to be sardines in a little tin can that flew in the sky… and then they got home after a long day and they brought my brother Jet and my new cousin Dare the little bi blue sheltie girl! I will post pictures of her later too. She gets to live with Aunt Marie and our friends in Richfield.

So we get to teach our new brother, Jet, who is a Danish Swedish Farmdog, all about the fun things we do! He likes to play and chew up stuff. But the Mum gives him good stuff to chew up so he won’t chew up couches and cords and things like that, or life insurance online but I don’t know if that is chewable or not. The remote for the TV is and he has wanted to chew that too!

We are all getting used to each other today and tomorrow and all this coming weekend. I get to go out for fun training on Friday with Chase and Jet so that’ll be super fun too! I missed the Mum and I’m glad she’s home!

This is me and my brother Chase! The Mum did a mean thing and she took away my nest couch bed and then she made us sit like this for a pose picture. I so miss my nesting couch! We would play on it too, but she said that it we were chewing the couch up too much and pulling lots of stuffing out and leaving it all over the front room without cleaning it up after ourselves.  So off the couch went to a place called the dump and I wasn’t able to go with and wish it a final good bye.

The Mum says that she doesn’t want my new brother to learn how to pull the stuffing out of couches but you know what? It’s fun and I could teach him anyway! 

So the Mum and my Aunt Marie are leaving this Sunday to get my new brother! I’m so excited! The Mum says I get to teach him how to run and run and play chase in the back yard. And he’s gonna like water from the Danze faucet even though I really don’t like water myself except to put my feet in a little bit.

I’m so excited to get a brother! Oh and nope he’s not a smooth collie… LOL He’s a Danish Swedish Farmdog so he’ll be little so the Mum says I have to play nice!

So the Mum says that my baby brother is coming next week! I’m so excited! Look at him sleeping though… he must be a lazy boy. His litter mate brother is also in the picture looking off at something else.  I hope my sleepy brother will play with me and run and run around the back yard! The Mum says I get to teach him how to do that, yay!

The Mum has been cleaning and cleaning the house all weekend to get ready for my brother. She says she wants to make our house safe for him so he won’t chew on any cords or knobs or anything that can really hurt him.

So our house is nice and safe and smells good! Though someone pooped on the tile upstairs already but I’m not sayin’ who it was!
