Diary of Dog - Dec 31, 2008

Sunrise on St. Georges Island - mom watched the Australian New Year's fireworks show on TV this morning and then hurried us down to the beach. We watched the sun emerge on this last day of 2008. Fresh new smells, new crab holes and sand dunes to explore. Funny how the beach changes overnight. This has been the best vacation ever - we've decided we like running on the beach just as well as hiking in the mountains. The birds are much easier to see and the sand makes for a great chase. Bailey caught a crab but we have not caught any birds. Good thing, mom hates it when we catch things.
Mom, when are we moving?

Diary of Dog - December 18, 2008

8:27 AM we have just returned from our morning stroll on the beach. So much fun to dig in the sand and chase those sea gulls. (Bailey) is getting a bit brave to stand on the edge of the water line. Can I back away in time so the wave doesn't roll over my feet? A very fun game. (Sheba) on the other hand, I'm not about to get my feet in that water. Let's walk further away from the water mom.

Pet Ten Commandments

The following Commandments were sent to us recently and we were so impressed, we wanted to share it with you. We apologize but we do not know the original human author.


Remember that they can't do a lot of things for themselves and that they depend on you to make their life a quality life!
A PET'S TEN COMMANDMENTS.........

1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you is likely to be painful.

2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.

4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainment, but I have only you.

5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.

6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.

7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.

8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.

9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.

10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me pl ease. Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.

~Take a moment today to thank God for your pets. Enjoy and take good care of them. Life would be a much duller, less joyful experience without God's critters.

~Now please pass this on to other pet owners. We do not have to wait for Heaven, to be surrounded by hope, love, and joyfulness. It is here on earth and has four legs

8:27 AM Woof..mom has not been posting on this thing in awhile. That is because she has been working so much getting us ready to go on a trip. She says we are going on a beach vacation. We've never been to a beach but she says that sea shell in her bathroom use to live there. Smells like fish but that thing was not too tasty. Mainly hard and crunchy. We love to eat fish! Hope we have a huge feast whenever we get there.
