Winnie Watson's Dog Blog: 8-27-08 - Dog Days
Wednesday, August 27, 2008

Gee, I don't have any real pearls of wisdom these days,... but then,
it's "The Dog Days of August" ya know,...
I'm suppose to be lazy,... so I hear!

Dog days!,... Hmmmm, I wonder who came up with that one?
Snoopy, or Woodstock.... ?

I like woodstocks hair!
I wonder why??

Aahhhhhhhh yes, the old dog days of august - snore, snore, snore.....

Maybe once school starts I'll get some energy. Wish I could go to school,

it sure looks like fun,... waiting for the bus in the early morning fog....

nothing sounds better..... except maybe finding the bone cupboard door open

when the masters are away.....! :o)

I did that once (a while back) and ate a whole box of bones, Boy was

Master J ticked off.....!

She had to cancel my pending surgery for that morning, (hee-hee)..... and

I had it all planned too......
I knew that bone door was cracked open before we went to bed that night,..

and I just didn't let on.... I waited her out....! ~ hee-hee.

*Alas,... I still had to have that surgery tho,.... just a bit later.
As it turned out, that surgery was really good for me (ya see, I had a big ol fatty tumor

removed from my hip, and now I have much more energy)....

I'm even cuter too, if you can believe that!

Well, gotta go,... I'm getting my teeth cleaned today! ~ Wish me luck with my

bright shiny new Chompers!

wuv,

Oooops!!!! -- Yeah, I know.... It's Thursday!!!

I was a real sleepy doggie last week and slept almost 24 hours one day.
Hence.... I missed Winnie Wednesday...!
Where does the time go?
-------------------------------

Aaaahhh.... Baseball issues!

It's not just the Yankees, but.....
who out there is just like me, and hopelessly misses the Old Days of Baseball???

What ever happened to a pitcher having a complete game??
We have million dollar men out there who can only throw
100-110 pitches,... twice a week...???

Okay ya'll, here's what that compares to.

A large company hires an excellent secretary and pays them oh, let's say a couple
million dollars a year!
Well, why not, they can type at 95 mph!
They're typing away and reach 300 words, and the boss comes in to get them,
"That's good,... now go sit in the employee lounge and rest those fingers, we'll need
you again in 4 days!"

What the..........! ~ No complete day? ~ This is nuts! .......... Well, no kidding!

Oh... and don't even get me started on the lost art of bunting.....
And, hello-o-o-o, any younger fans out there that even know what
a suicide or a safety squeeze is? ~ Not likely,...
they've certainly never seen one, or even heard the term!

Can anyone say,... Hit and Run? No, it doesn't mean you
smash someones car and speed off!

I can tell ya right now, my Master P and Grampie K should be co-managing those Yanks,
they would be playing .600+ baseball now, and well on their way to another series ring!
It's fundamentals, less pitcher yanking, and the element of surprise!......what a difference
they'd make.... playing that old time classic baseball again....
And the hot dogs would taste better & cost less than a Volkswagen too!

Well, I don't know about ya'll but, I sure feel better just getting that off
my little puppy chest. :o)

Whatever,... it's August and......... There's nothing like Baseball......!

Wuv,
winnie

Hello all,
Usually I'm just a Lazy Porch Dog,... but this weekend I was a busy puppy!

Went to Grandma B.'s and she gave me a ride on her John Deere Gator (I don't
normally like gators), but that's one cool Gator!
I romped all thru the woods, and went fishing in the lagoon. Master P got a little mad
at me when I thought it would be a cool idea to go IN the lagoon....
but she caught me before I managed it.
Master J. never went fishing much but, she learned to cast in one try. Wow!
Master P caught a big old pickerel,... (I wasn't too impressed tho).

Later, I walked all the way from Grandma's to Aunt Pat and Uncle Dane's, on a
leash with them... and they took me on a Big tractor ride!
Hope I get to stay with them again! ~ hint-hint. ;o)

I went to the vet later and weighed in a little over my limit,... so jeepers, I had to
stay and walk the treadmill for a few hours.... hmmmm,.... possibly due to all the bones
I got this weekend via the Niles kids....??? :o) (hee-hee--kidding)

So,...I have a tip for a cool doggie friend of mine this week,... Henry.
Apparently he's taken to not liking little kids too much... sounds like he may
have been taunted by a child in his yard while the masters were at work??? .....
Whatever the cause, I know that I always come around when given a bone....
so aunt M and aunt N,... maybe have a few little kids....
or how about lil Jax (?) he's the man! ..... hand feed Henry a bunch of bones? ~
I hope you'll come
around too Henry! ~ Kids are Fun!!!

Well, I gotta run, I'm having such issues with The Yankees this week, that
I CAN'T EVEN BLOG ABOUT IT! ~ Good Lord!!! ~ I will expand on this
mess next week, when I cool off a bit....!
Thank God they pulled it out last night...... (shaking my head here)....

wuv ya'll,
winnie

Happy Wednesday to ya'll...........

Wow, these Wednesdays come up fast..... my little Paw Paws are getting a
bit sore blogging away!
But I Love it......!!!

Listen, I've got a bit of an issue -- Yogurt! ............Yummy, I love it and
Breyers ® light boosts my immunity with only 80 calories in 6oz. and probiotics too......
which by the time I actually get any from my hoggy masters, we're talking 6 calories left
and not
a whole lot of immunity boosting to speak of in the bottom of that little plastic cup,... But hey,
I do love that they let me lick out that little cup.

Here's my dilemma....
I really like Yoplait ® too, a few more calories I know,....but then, I'm keeping
myself fairly trim these days, so not to worry.
However, those cups are shaped really weird and make it hopelessly difficult for me to
get my big ol tongue down into the bottom to scoop up all that delicious yogurt....
and I bet I'm missing some of my needed probiotics too.
So, can someone let them know that their plastic cup is upside down?

Oh yeah, and I do my part to be a good green doggie too, I always deposit the little plastic cups in the recycle bin after I'm done licking the dickens outta them... (a bit of a task with those upside down ones though).

Last week I was asked by my cool mapster Aunt L. if I was a natural pup.... I don't actually
know what my carbon footstep is,.... but know I'm trying hard to always do my part,
and I also tend to refer to this as my carbon pawprint... Hee-hee!

Anyone want to con my masters into shopping for some
Yoplait Whips!® Chocolate Mousse Style yogurt? -
There's a Big Bone in it for ya! :o)

wuv ya'll,
winnie

My name is Winnie Watson. I am 13 years old, and a very happy doggie. My three masters are the loves of my life! Actually, I love everyone,.... especially anyone that's packing a puppy bone!
