Hot tomales!!! (I know...tamales!)

Not the food...it is hot as hot tamales here in Texas!!! Prissy and I (and the kittens) are all staying inside the past few days to stay cool. It is a little more boring than being outside, but at least it is not burning up. We have been reaching a heat index over 100 this week and it is only June. I hope that is not what it will be like later this summer, but around here it will probably get hotter. Wonder how I would look with no hair??? Just thinking cool thoughts...don't think my mom would let me do that, though...just an idea.

We haven't chased any wild cats up the tree lately. So, guess they are lucky it is hot, huh? Except that our cats and us are cool and they have to fend for themselves. (That is if the animal catcher doesn't get them first.) I don't know if they belong to someone, but if they do...they need to take them to their house and keep them away from our cats! I wouldn't tell anyone, but our kittens are kind of growing on me now. They even come up and rub noses with me. I don' t particularly like that, but I just growl a little bit and they eventually go on and play somewhere else. However, if they are not where I can see them...I still go looking for them. Have to make sure they are safe...guess it is my herding nature.

Mom is getting ready to cook, so guess I had better go supervise that. She may give me a sample if I am good. Have a great evening everyone!

PS: This is a picture of one of those wild cats sitting on my truck! How dare they!

Cat Protectors...ssshhhhh

Okay, though we would never admit it to anyone...we are sort of fond of our cats. Prissy and I had a stray cat get in our yard the other day and it was our duty to protect our cats. We chased that cat all over the yard and cornered it by the fence! We were just about to grab it when mom whistled for us to stop barking. When we turned around, the cat took off. So, we decided to ignore mom, and chased it up the tree. Bet that darn cat won't show up in our yard again! How dare that cat...it is our job to chase our cats!Too bad we couldn't climb trees like that other border collie in the video...or that cat would have been in big trouble!Remember...

Hope everyone is having a great day! Chat with you later!

Prissy is finally free at last!!!

Woo hoo!!! Prissy is back to normal now!No more separation required!! (For those of you who didn't see previous posts...Prissy has been in heat and we had to stay separated. Mom didn't want puppies.) Now we are back to chasing the neighbor's dog up and down the fence line!I didn't know I actually missed the little dickens so much...don't tell her that, though!~

We have barked at the mail lady, chased the neighbor's dogs (from our side of the fence), eaten, barked some more, eaten some more, chased the cats....oh, what a glorious day it has been!!! Hope you are having a great day where you are, too!

PS: Mom is very happy, too...no more whining from us!

Potato chip thief in the house...

You will not believe what happened today! My mom was eating a sandwich for lunch and had a can of Pringles potato chips sitting next to her plate on the coffee table. I know what you are probably thinking...but, it wasn't the dogs this time! We were innocent...it was the cat who did it. Mom was also watching a movie, so I guess the cat knew she was distracted...they jumped up on the coffee table, stuck their head in the top of the can, grabbed a chip, and ran with it!(mom didn't even get to get a chip out of it yet! She was not happy...although the cat was thrilled!)Then a little bit later, the baby cat (Cutie pie)got in the trash(again) and got a pudding cup out and got it stuck on their head...funniest thing I ever saw! Even mom had to laugh at that!

As you can see, it isn't always the dogs who run away with the food! Better watch out for those cat burglars in your house!

Sugarfoot posing by herself...

They look a little startled, huh?

I'm not in the Sunshine state, but we have sunshine today!

Awesome, awesome day!!! We have sunshine and it is 65 degrees! Perfect frisbee weather! I have talked to some fellow bloggers from the north. I definitely feel for them! They have snow and expect more snow today! I am thankful I live in Texas!

Granted, our weather changes constantly. For the most part, though, I can play outside almost all year round! I love to play!!! Prissy and I have been outside chasing squirrels, each other, and the frisbee all day today. The cat even got gutsy and came outside with us for a little while!

I do remember one year that it snowed here in February. Of course, it wasn't cold enough to last...just on the grass and trees a little. It was very pretty, though!!! Only time I have seen snow in my lifetime. It was funny watching the other animals walking around tip-toeing on their paws! Guess they had never seen it either and didn't know what to make of it. I enjoyed it, but I still love the spring and summertime best. (People around here don't cook out and throw me their bones in the winter!)

Anyway, have a terrific day and I will catch up with you later. I have some serious playing to do!!!

Cats are crazy!

I wasn't decided on what to write today, until I started noticing the cat. She had jumped into my owner's lap while she was on the computer. My owner was playing a game on line (Yahoo-Bouncing Balls) and the cat started swatting at the screen and kept trying to grab the pointer! Don't cats know that you can't reach through that screen??? Duh!

Now don't get me wrong...I have been known to jump my big self up into her lap while they are on the computer, too. However, I have NEVER swatted at the screen! Usually I am just wanting a hug, or more water, or something like that....or it is time for them to stop working and come play with me!! Frisbee time!!! (Too cold for that today...I wish it were Spring!!!)

Anyway, cats sure are funny. One minute they ignore you, the next they are trying to grab your tail, and now add swatting at the computer screen! I just don't understand cats!Do you?

I did notice online today a place I would like to go visit...they have a dog beach! Check out the cute photos at this site: "http://www.sandiegodogbeach.com/"..be sure and tell them Shamu @ "http://uought2badog.blogspot.com/" sent you!

Honest mom, I wasn't in the trash!!!

Cutie Pie got caught! oops!

Animals as Friends: Imir and Stassi,rottweiler-family in photos

I thought I would add this link for my readers...since Prissy is part rottweiler. She does look simular to these cute puppies. She was about 3 or 4 months old when she strolled onto our property. Of course, I am a sucker for animals...so needless to say, she is still with us...until her new adoptive dad comes and picks her up, anyway. She will then be moving to Missouri with him. She will also be taking "her" cat, "Sugar Foot" with her. I will try to get them to get together for a photo before that happens and share it with you.
