Sissy Speaks

This is Sissy.  My brother Sammy is real sick and in the hospital, and it makes Mom sad.  Please keep Sammy in your thoughts...they are running tests, but are hopeful that it is Cushings Disease...which is treatable, however, we won't know more until tomorrow.   He was pretty sick and couldn't get any air last night and it scared me and mom a lot. 

Love, Sissy

Hi!!  It is me, Sammy. You'd think Mom would let me post since she has been so very neglectful. Geezers!  I haven't got to post for a long time!


So, when Mom is at work, I nicely hide in her closet all day. Safe and sound. But look what Sissy does? She is such a silly sissy.

Remember me?  Sammy?   

I have been under the weather...not really sick, but Mom noticed I haven't been myself..kinda sluggish, dry nose, weight gain, thinning hair, etc.   So, Dr. Colleen ran some tests and found out I have a low thyroid.

I am now taking medicine and Mom thinks I seem like a whole new guy already! 


Sunday, Brooklyn and Mom took us to the Dog Park.  We had a great walk and then had fun playing at the Dog Park.   I even ran and played!   Mom was so happy! 

We had a really good time.  It was a great Sunday! 

Sammy Sighs....

Mom seems to have forgotten what a great blogger I am.   She certainly hasn't been keeping up.    I am doing pretty good.   A couple weeks ago, we had a near perfect day....Mom and Dad took us for a ride in the car...

I LOVE riding in the car, I sit right on mom's lap and just watch everything.   I don't like to stick my head out the window because of a near accident when I stepped on the automatic window and it rolled up and scared me and mom a  lot a while back.  She thought I was going to hang myself!

 I have to look at mom and see what Sissy is up to once in a while too.

 Sissy doesn't know about those windows that can roll up and nearly strangle you, so she sticks her head out of the window.

She just doesn't understand, she loves sticking her head out.

After the drive, we went on  a walk and to the dog park.  Since then, we have been back to the dog park a couple times.   But, I usually stick close to Mom there, just to protect her.  It has nothing to do with me being shy and I am NOT afraid of other dogs, so there.

Friday!!

I am glad it is Friday! Even though it was a short week, it seemed long. Busy times at work! I am hoping for a nice weekend to enjoy some biking and of course, the dog park. Every night we walk the dogs, Sissy tries to cross the street there when we walk by the dog park! It is kinda cute seeing her effort to go there and play, but then I feel bad that we don't take them every day! But evenings are too short to spend time there during our walk!!

Last night, my friend, R, stopped by the house on her bike ride. That was nice, I love drop in company!!! We were just playing around on computers...well, I was trying out the new iPad....more on that later. No, I didn't buy one...they belong to the school, but we get to try them and see how we like them. I think they will have trouble getting them out of our greedy hands at the end of summer! :-)

Have a wonderful weekend!! Smile!

Sammy Sighs

She's getting ready...
Sissy has her valentine's day attire on.


Do you??

Merry Christmas Eve!

Halloween Pics

We didn't get to spend Halloween with our grandkids, and I missed them a bunch. Thanks to technology, I got a picture on my phone of each of them:

Brooklyn---aka Jason (yikes!)

Fairy Princess Chloe

And, lest I should forget---Sissy wore her Halloween Dress:

Sammy Sighs

Hi...remember me? Geez, Mom has not taken any dictation from me in a long while. I guess she forgot all about my stories.

I have been doing ok. Sissy and I got to spend the night and day at Grandma and Grandpa's house a couple weekends ago while Mom and Dad went to Denver to visit Allison. It was really nice of Grandma and Grandpa to let us stay and I was especially good. Sissy was naughty. (0f course) She chewed out some hair and that worried my Grandma and Grandpa. But, I tried to tell them she just does that. Silly Sissy just has issues. She also bit at my feet when we would run in the big yard outside and she was mean and didn't want me to sit with them, she was being selfish. Silly Sissy. But, we had a nice time and I was really glad we got to stay there with family instead of having to stay with strangers at a kennel where you don't get to sit on laps and all that other good stuff. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa!

We went for a ride in the car the other day, and I was enjoying putting my head out the window when it rolled up and almost strangled me to death. I started screaming in my doggie voice. Mom started yelling at Dad because she thought he was rolling up the window! She was in a panic. Uh, oh...it was all my fault ... I stepped on the button myself and rolled up the window. I must really learn to be more careful. I did escape injury free at least!

Well, hope you are having a good day! I have missed writing on here! Love, Sammy. (the stud)

Birthday Girl

Today is Silly Sissy's birthday.

She hopes for ice cream later! She is 3 years old!

She has been a gift to me, giving me hours and hours of love, entertainment and laughter. She was born on my birthday, so we were meant to be together!




Happy Birthday Silly Sissy!

Sammy Sighs

Howdy!

It has been raining for days and days it seems. Mom is tired of the rain because we can't go on walks, she can't go on bike rides and Brooklyn can't go swimming.

I don't like it all that much either. Everytime Sissy and I need to go out to do our business we get wet. Sissy is especially hating it and sometimes Mom or Dad has to go out and stand in the rain and make sure she does what she is supposed to. Of course, I do what I need to like the good doggie that I am. Sissy is just silly.

I hope the sun comes out soon!

Sammy Sighs

Mom caught me in the act. She's been noticing lately that her pillows on the bed are not where she left them when she gets home from work. She makes the bed first thing every day, and then comes home and its all a-mess! Today, I got caught in the act!

(Oops..they are all messed up!)


UH OH!


Sorry, Mom! I was cold. Remember, Tina and Chrissy said it was cold in the house....and you have the ceiling fan going and the window open...brr. I'm sorry!

Sammy Sighs

Wow, Mom said there is going to be a dog park in our town. I'm sore excited. Oh, but what is a dog park? Will other dogs be there? Will I have to be friendly? What if I don't like them? What if Sissy is her usual silly self and embarasses me? What if Mom makes me wear a stupid shirt?

Oh, no, I am not so sure about this bark park thing! I am getting an ulcer, I think......

Sammy Sighs

Hey, wow! I think its' spring.

Mom finally gave in and got out my volleyball. I love, love, love my ball! It was nice and warm out this weekend. Today (Sunday) was more windy than yesterday. But, it was still sunny as you can see by my picture.


I play "volley-soccer" with my ball:



I even gave in and let Sissy play some, because she misses playing with Sophie so much:



It was really fun, but Mom ended up putting the ball away because we were getting so tired and didn't want to quit playing.

Then, she made us take a dumb bath. But, anyway, I didn't care, because I had ever so much fun today. Then she put on my shiny blue tag on my collar that I got from Dr. Colleen the other day. I do feel proud to wear my collar, and really think my new tag is awesome. I just don't like wearing shirts, as you know. Mom has been taking me and Sissy on walks a lot now, too, since the weather has been nice. She made the walk longer, so we get pretty tired by the time we got home.

Here is a couple more "spring" pictures. I told Mom that the garage sure looks ratty and needs painted! Anyway, happy spring...for now...I know there's still some winter yet to be had, but this was great!

I got really thirsty playing ball.

Silly Sunny Sissy

I played with Sissy (Mom can't wait for "green" grass!)

Sammy Sighs

Mom is not feeling very good today, so I am taking care of her. I can really help with my doggie kisses and cuddling. We got some snow on the ground today, so I dove off the porch head first and just ran as fast as I could. It's fluffy white snow. It's kinda cold out, especially compared to the warm days we just had. Well, back to taking care of mom....

Sad Silly Sissy

Sissy is sad today, so I must keep her company.

Sophie moved to her new home in Wyoming with her mama, Tina, daddy Adam and her doggie brother Ruger, in the beautiful mountains, but so far away, today.

So long for now, Sophie...
we love you and we will REALLY miss you!

Have a good day, everyone!

Sammy Sighs-a Follow Up

Our visit to see Dr. Colleen went pretty good. I traveled in the car really great, and yep, Mental Pause Mama, Mom did ok starting the car! Hee Hee! This is a picture of me in the car.


Silly Sissy isn't such a good traveler, but Sophie loves to ride in the car! We all did pretty good. Guess what! Dr. Colleen found that I lost a little weight and that I am very "muscular". See, I told you I am buff! Whew!

Sammy Sighs

We are off today to see Dr. Colleen. Mom said that I need some shots and Silly Sissy needs one shot. I probably get more because I'm so tuff. I just hope Dr. Collen doesn't say anything about my weight. I'm not fat. I'm not. I'm just right. And, Silly Sissy doesn't travel good in the car like I do. So, that'll be really annoying.

I guess Sophie and Tina are going too, so Sophie will be all set before her big move this weekend. Mom said maybe even Crystal will ride along. That's good, then I can sit with Crystal and not be bothered with Spazzy Silly Sissy in the car.

Sammy Sighs

Hey, hi there again. I just wanted to update you about my poor pitiful life. First of all, Sophie is moving to Wyoming in a week. So, she's living here with us (so is Tina) for one week until the move since they loaded up their whole house already, including all of Sophies toys and even her bed and crate. Poor Sophie must have thought something crazy was going on!

Anyway, Silly Sissy is just in heaven having Miss Sophie here because they are the bestest friends ever. I told Sissy last night I was going to name her Snoopy Sissy because she keeps going in their "room" and snooping around. Silly Sneaky Snoopy Sissy. That's her.

Last night Sophie and Tina went to bed and Sissy sat at the door crying... Sniffly Sissy.

Then, Dad told Sophie that she didn't need to move, she could just stay and live here wih us. Um....HEELLLLOOOO......EXCUSE me, no one asked my opinon and all I need is another silly girl around here. I have a hard enough time as it is. Not really, I do love Sophie, but I pretend not to. But, I also know she will be moving, no chance of me having to live with two girls anyway.

Today Mom and Tina took all of us out for a walk. I pretended to not want to go, but it was fun, and I showed those silly girls how it should be done. I walked real nice while they did their jumping bean walk and rabbit jumps. I did get in a bit of trouble for barking at two kids. I dont' think I should get in trouble because I was just protecting everyone! Geez.

But, anyway, I just wanted to tell you all my thoughts. Have a good day!

Love, Solemn Sammy

Mom said it was time for me and Sissy to go see Megan, our groomer. Here is what we looked like before...poor little orphans that we looked like for sure:

See how much hair I have, it makes me look fat! I'm not fat, just have fluffy hair, I swear!

And Sissy is sure looking kinda ratty too.

And ... now...









Don't I look great?

And here is Silly Sissy:
