WTB

Here Mom is posting a link to her book on top of my blog page. What the Bark is up with that.. Oh well I guess I has to let it go or she might not let me blog any more.

Nails stayed home yesterday for our walkie. She was tired of day after day after day. Mom N I went n we went much faster than with Nails. I a little speed Demon, we found a trail to a park that we had never been to B4. It it pretty far and too far to go to play, cause once you get there you are tired and ready to get in the stroller and ride.

Mom said it was ok, but really a pretty boring park, Ok playground equipment and 2 baseball diamonds, but no one was there, they had a couple of those shelters and on had a few ppl in it. But mostly it was just an empty park. Not much to play in.

Mom said Nails had to go @ least 3 days a week if we went 5 or 6. She needs the exercise. She feels better when she gets exercise. She has not limped or acted real lazy since she got off gluten. Now she likes to play and feels good, she just kinda lazy. She could have some joint damage from B4 Mom figured out that gluten was making her hurt. Maybe Mom should give her a tiny bit of aspirin B4 walkies. One day we went too fast and too far for her and she got muscle cramps. I laughed cause her rear end locked up and Mom had to rub her muscles. After that day we started taking the stroller and we walk 20 -25 mins and then we ride the rest of the time in the stroller. Poor Nails wussed out on Mom. I was ok but I was getting really tired by the end of our walkies, so I like to ride, riding fun.

Drug House

When we went out yesterday the Drug house across the street had papers on the door, Mom being nosy went over to look. It says that Fanny May (Spelling) Now owns the house. I swear Mom did a dance right there. Then the Realtors came by and Mom went over to talk to them while we watched out the window and barked @ them.

They were not happy to hear that it was a meth house, but they got inside and took photos and then they knew. There is Garfetti on the walls and Devil and Satan and all kinds of bad stuff on the walls, the toilet is gone and they guess they were just peeing down the hole. I could pee down a hole I could. I want to go in and see and smell around, but Mom says we can not go inside, but that we can check out the boat thing in the back yard later today and see what it is.

Mom told the Realtor that she needed to put a sign in the yard that says Meth house closed, Empty house, bank owned now, cause their customers keep coming by and looking and walking around and beating on the door and windows and breaking in to see if there are any drugs inside. They Realtor said this was such a nice neighborhood she did not expect a meth house, N M&D said no one did, But it was here. She said they had seen worse inside, but that it was pretty bad. She said after they got it empty that she would invite Mom over to see what it looked like inside.

It is a very nice house with a garage in the back on top of the under house garage. Dad would love to have the garage. Mom says it cheaper to build our own garage then to buy that house and remodel it.. Unless we got it really cheap. Dad still not done with the basement in our house so it not ready to flip in this economy. If it was done then we might be able to flip this house. But we wanted to do the upstairs too, so when we sold this house some day we could get a good profit. But we like this house and we keep putting sweat equity in it so someday it will do us good. Maybe even build that garage out back some day.

Stuff

Well the elections are over, Baseball is over, All we have left is Football and then the TV will be back to normal. I like the TV cause it great for setting and snuggling. Mom not watch so many political ads cause she usually uses her DVR so she watches then sped up. But the news was full of them.

The goblins are gone and no more walking down the street to bark @. I still say they there, they just not wearing weird clothes. BOL.

Now Turkey Day is on its way. We will got to Gma's and take the camper cause M&D has a wedding to go to the Saturday after Turkey day. Mom says they has to winterize the old Farm we used to live in. I thought we was done going there cause someone else lived there but now they gone and we been back. M&D not too happy bout getting it back I think.

Mom Likes Turkey Day but she not like Santa day too much, especially this year cause she not have any money from Dad being off work with his broken fingers. That on top of getting the farm back is why Mom says she looking @ a job. I not want Mom to work cause she says if she walks to work she not need to walk us 4 exercise. Maybe she walk in the afternoon and ride her Kawasaki in the morning. Her job would be real close. about 25 mins walkie. Bout 5 mins ride. But she rides fast. BOL. Sure it B a cold ride but so short she prob ride most days rather than back the car out of the garage. She says car too long and big and bulky and then she wants to drive a BUS. WTB. ROFB..

Snore

We have not blogged in quite a while. I am so tired from all the work Mom did yesterday. I think she needs to go make lunch and give me my lunch. I followed her around and then we walkied for a long ways. I getting trim again, my harness needed tightened, Which means soon the weather will go bad and Mom will start walking in the basement on her elliptical thing N we will get FAT again. Oh well I like being fat. But I miss walkies. I hates cold though.

I want to live south. I wish we would win the lottery, whatever that is. But Mom says it helps if you play it. Gma plays it some and maybe she will win and give us money so we can move south for longer walkie times. Hay I can Dream can't I?

Anyway We ready for lunch and I Mom Done watching Y&R. So it time to EAT. and then a walkie I sure. Have a good day everfurry.

Stuff

All kinds of stuff been going on since my last blog. M&D got home from Sturgis, then Dad went to work and broke 2 of his fingers are work. Now he has pins in them and he got wrapped up fingers. Cousin Ashley got Married and we got go to Illinois to visit. Now we back home again.

We had a bath when we got home, and we are having fun as usual. Mommy had bad gas last night n I think it unfair that she not have to get down off the couch after she make stinky.

I went to bed with Dad n Mom started making noise in the kitchen N I got up twice to see what she was doing, So she shut me out of bedroom cause I was Disturbing Dad. So I had to stay up and read with her. I wanted to go to bed. but eventually she went to bed n I got to go too.

Dad will be better soon, but Mom says we not have any money cause he not working nuf. I not want any money, when they not have money they stay home more. As long as I got food who cares about money or bills. Mommy wanted new gun, but now she not get one. That Ok with me. I not like her old gun let alone a new one.

Well I hope to get a long nap later after bathroom time. Catch you all later.

Sturgis

M&D are leaving today on their Motorcycles to go to Sturgis. As soon as Dad gets home and gets his shower. I hates Sturgis. We was gonna have to stay in our outside kennel, but now Larry The Basement Guy is coming to house set with us.

Our Larry The Basement Guy is skinny and wirey, not like Larry The Cable Guy. But they both Red Necks. He comes with Puff Corn to eat. YUM. He stayed in basement for couple months this winter, now he come to set with us. It be nice to have our house and our AC and not get put out in the heat.

Mom says she all packed up and ready and has even had her coffee and breakfast. I says STAY HOME. She says NOPE.. Well she has work to do, so she says I got to get off here. Catch you all later. When they get back and I get to blog again..

Sunday, July 25, 2010

This just said it would share these blogs with twitter and facebook,but I do not see the link at the bottom, so I will have to do this little blog to test it out.. Mom says I not make a good lumbar pillow. I think I do? I guess I too hot.

Rain / Feeder

Boy what a day. We got up late, N got shut out of bedroom, then Mom on Computer. It bill Tuesday so we on computer for longer on Tuesdays. I set by her leg and make her hot. Then We go out to pee and come back in for our lunch. We get in our crates for lunch and Mom decides to leave for shopping while we in there.

So we in crates till she gets home. I know she forgot, cause we not have to stay in there while she gone. I just know. Anyway. She comes home and we help her put stuff away. Dad comes home while we helping so we go help him get in the house. He opens door and Nails runs out to greet him but he comes in and shuts her out. ROFL. I thought it was funny. Then later Dad Ask, Where's Nails. Well Duh You locked her outside, on the front stoop.

Mom runs down there to see if she had ran off or got in traffic and she was setting on the stoop complaining about the heat. I laughing at her. Mom says if someone had walked past then she would have been in trouble cause she would have went out and greeted them and then licked them and then she would have wondered off with them, or got in traffic. I guess it good it was too hot for people to be walking past. If I was stupid enough to go out when Dad coming in I would have BARKED and let them know I was still out there. But I not that stupid. ROFL..

Then later the weather lady kept saying we were gonna have a Gully Washer. I was not sure what a Gully washer was, but Dad put us in our back yard and told us to go pee before it got here. So we did. then I watched out my window, and Man did it rain and rain and rain. It rained so hard I could not see the cars in the street very well. The water was running down the gutters and all around. They even put the SUV in the garage afore it started. My Garden plants are all flattened, and there is tree leaves and little limbs all over my yard. I not like Gully Washers.

Mom ordered us a water proof Gravity flow metal Dog feeder. This is not a good thing. It can feed us for a whole week. The one we had for biker Rally's was not water proof so every time they left the food got soggy and nasty cause it rained. So she ordered us a new one. it holds 10lbs dog food, which is plunty for a long time for us. Last time they went she got this new water Bucket and it holds 5 gallons. They keep talking about Sturgis and a week. I Hates Sturgis and I hates Biker Rallies. even if the neighbors check on us when we has to stay in our outside kennel. can you imagine 5 days. That will be awful. this feeder is posed to keep out slugs too, cause it has a magnetic metal flap.. it can hang a few inches off the floor with a couple of S hooks. they used to have one for Ghoul our old hunting Dog and it was bigger than this one, and her food stayed dry in it. She stayed in the kennel for long times.. Mom says we has to have good food, good water, and be safe.. She says we must be safe, cause she worries about us. If she worries so much she should stay with us. LOL.

I guess if we gonna have to stay in kennel like dogs then we does need the bestest stuff to keep us watered and fed, and to have good food and water. This is better stuff for that than what we had, so it is better. But I still not want to have to stay in Kennel. So it is bad too.

Stinky

The SUV smells like glue and stuff now. it really stinks. The seats are now slippery and we has a cover on them anyway. I thought the leather was so we not need a cover on seats, but Mommy says that we need a cover so we not slide around. It just a blanket. and we love blankets anyway. Mom says the blanket is old and can be tossed in the wash when we get it stinky.

I not sure why she thinks we always get stuff stinky. We not stinky at all. She washes us and makes us stinky if you ask me. We just gets to smelling good and then she washes us. We gets our bed and couch and stuff smelling good and she washes it and makes it all stinky. Just not understand. We just got the wash thing yesterday, Couch covers, carpet, Bed covers, Crate pillows, She dusted and washed floors. Vacuumed. Then we had to get a bath. Knew that bath was coming when she started the cleaning stuff. She said that we not really need Mopping yet

Mom says that if you gonna have critters in the house you has to pay for it with cleanings. Sassy's cage even got cleaned and disinfected. Mom hates dusting If you looking for dirt in our house you can find DUST somewhere and maybe some cobwebs.. That's why Mommy says we have Sassy and not another kind of bird, Cause Sassy is not dusty. Amazons do not make dust dander like Cockatoos. Mommy says African Grays have a little dust, but nothing like a Cockatoo. She wants another Gray but Sassy doesn't.

I think if we not careful we get our nails trimmed soon. Oh well I think it time for a nap now. I tired. Mom got me up early and shut me out of the bedroom so I could not go back to bed. She says I not need to go back to bed.

Where is my Beetle

M&D left in our Green VW Beetle yesterday afternoon. They were gone till nearly dark. They came home in a SUV. A Gray Nissan Murano. Mom says it is pretty. I think it smells funny. I did not want to get in it cause it was not our Beetle. Nails and I would not get in until Mom set the leftovers on the seat, then we got in to see what was in the bag..

It not have leather seats but Mom said that they are fixing that on Tuesday, that she would not have got it with cloth seats cause Bird Poop stains cloth seats. They said to go ahead and let Sassy poop on it this weekend cause they was going to throw the covers away when they put the leather on. LOL.

Mom says the Beetle needed an injector pump rebuild, and glow plugs, which would have been about $2000. Mom says the beetle was crowded with us and Sassy bird and her and all the stuff we needs to take along to travel. Plus we could not pull a trailer with the motorcycle on it. Now we have 4x4, 6 cyl and nuf power and road clearance to haul a trailer. Dad says he was tired of having to take the big truck everywhere cause the Beetle was not big nuf. We should only need the big truck if we takes the camper, and now we will.

Dad keeps saying that the SUV is Mom's and Mom says the Beetle was hers. That this is his. She stick with her Motorcycles, rides them more than she drives anyway. She likes it but she LOVED our little green diesel BUG. If Mom not want it then I guess it is ours. Nails and Sassy and Mine, we take it, we needed more room and I think we will like it when we gets used to it, Sassy even has her own climate control so she can be warmer when Mommy has it like a fridge on her side. Stupid bird always gets the front seat, if Dad not along. Mommy's and their hot flashes.

I think the Kaw, or Kawasaki will like it cause the SUV will pull it to Gma's house and it will not have to go up a ditch to get in the back of a truck any more, it will be able to ride on its own trailer. Viper Mom's Harley could even ride on the trailer, but Viper usually takes herself or she stays home. The only times Vipers rides in a trailer is for going to Florida in March when ice on roads here. Mom says it not for us Viper could go to Gma's with just Mom. But when we has to go along Viper can not carry us. The Kaw is part dirt bike part street bike and great for running around at the farm. I even ride it before.

I think I will like my new SUV. Well my used SUV. I have LOTS of windows to smear up, and plunty of room. Really cold AC. Mom says it can make U shiver when it very hot out. I will draw on windows and make it mine as soon as I get in it. Can not wait. Love to draw on windows with nose.

Barney.

Not much

Not much going on today. I setting here in Gma R's house, we went to Gma H's house and no one was home, so we left some buckets and just left, then we went to town n Mom n Uncle Jeffrey went in a store and I barked at people. then we left. They come out with a piece of paper each.

Now it blast furnace outside so we setting here in AC. Mom says we going to hook up camper morrow morning and take it somewhere, then we going to load Kawasaki in truck and go home morrow afternoon. I think I ready to go home. We not getting much done, it too hot to work outside much. I miss Daddy and he misses Mom. He keeps calling her and calling her for nothing n she says she not get anything done that way. LOL.

Mom says it time to go put some more gas in the camper for the last night in it. I not sure what is going on. I guess I go out with Mom and follow her back and forth carrying gas. LOL.

Later, Barney

Having fun

We been having fun at Gma R's Mom been busy. She and uncle Jeffrey stayed up too late last night n I just got tired and went to bed with Gma R. It was late and I was tired. I stayed and slept with her when Mom, Nails and Sassy went to the camper to sleep. We came in early tonight so I came along n now we in camper where we should be to sleep. I not think Merlot is a good reason to stay up and make noise while watching Supernatural.

The camper must be being bad cause Mom been saying bad words to it about some kind of battery charger being junk.

Mom been working over all Gma R's Animals. She Castrated 3 baby calves, she Frontlined everyone in the house, She cut Solo's "Puff Ball" hair all off. She has been worming everyone. She gave baby cats shots and nose spray to go with their frontline and wormer. Poor Puff Ball had over 100 fleas on him. Gma sucked a bunch of them up in her vacuum while they cut his hair. He did not seem to mind all the noisy things like I would have. He not even afraid when the vacuum pull his skin up or when it get a hold of his tail. I not saying he brave, or I chicken but I think vacuum is for attacking and whipping. Clippers are ok, but they best for avoiding.

Mom been riding her motorcycle in the evenings but this evening she says she was too tired. Been doing so much need to rest. She took Gma to farm store to get shots for cats and wormers, even got new clippers for Solo, yesterday and today they went to see someone named Sam, and he had all kinds of good things they brought home including some more of that Merlot stuff. Then they went truck shopping but they not buy one of those. No wonder they tired. Not too much Merlot tonight, better get some sleep.

When Mom gets tired I not mind at all. I sleep with her all day or all night if she wants. I LOVE to sleep as long as I gets food, water and bathroom breaks I could sleep with her all day and night. Not need any walks or anything like that.

Night all

Saturday, June 19, 2010

We made it in last night

We unhooked the camper and then they left us inside and went to wal-mart. So sucky. We got to spend the Day with Grandma R. and we got to visit with our cousin Min Pin's And The Papalion Fuzz Ball, or Solo. Mom rode her Kawasaki motorcycle around and we visited with Grandma. Something is wrong with the plug for the camper and they can not get it to work. The generator works but the plug does not so we have to run the generator at night to have AC. then the front AC goes out and now we has to run only the rear AC and use a fan to pull the air up to the bedroom so we not be hot in bed.

Dad is off fishing with his Dad and his Nephew Levi. Mom and us are resting in the camper. Sassy bird is sleeping in her cage with covers over it so she not get cold since the AC back where she is has to cool whole camper. They took a boat and went on the Mississippi. The river is high and it is kinda scary Mom says. But Dad says raising high water makes for good fishing. I guess we has to tweet a photo of Sassy tomorrow cause now that I tweeted a photo of me wearing her feather they want to see her. OH well, she in bed now so we has to try and member to do it morrow.

I hope Dad catches some nasty old fish since he likes to do that.

Later, Barney.

Gun

I forgot to tell you all that M&D got their permits to carry guns. They got them months ago I just forgot that I had said they applied for them. Mom got a bigger gun at first but decided it was too heavy and too big to hide on her body. So now she has Elsie, a Ruger LCP .380. I do not Like Elsie I bark at her when I see her. I stay away from her. She has never hurt me, but I do not like her at all. She is small and light, but Mom says she is mean anyway.

Mom is used to having her around and keeps her with her all the time. I do not mind her when she is in her holder thing on Mom, but I do not like her when she gets out. Mom says she glad she not need to use her, but she is glad she is there sometimes. There was one time when we were walking she was glad she had a gun with her. I think It was me, I protected Mom. I big and bad. Her moving her hand to her waist was not it. It was me. I was the protection she needed. She never got the gun out, she just moved her hand toward it, so I know it was me and Nails that changed the guys mind about us being a mark.

Mommy says she will feel naked when she goes to Illinois this weekend, cause she always has Elsie with her. She says that the local County police would not mind if she carried Elsie, but if she ran into a State officer or a City cop they might get upset. She knows the County Sheriff, and he would be ok with it.

Well I better get to packing my stuff up for the weekend in Illinois. I will protect Mommy, I will. She can just throw Elsie away. LOL.

YEAH

We are packing, Mom packed our leashes, and some treats. She packed the bird stuff in the camper. We are going to go see Grandma. I am so excited. I ready to go. Weeeee. I love to visit with Grandma and with all my cousin Min Pins at both Grandma's houses. Even my mean little tiny litter mate sister, She might be grouchy but I like visiting her.

She says we have to pack clothes and food yet and then we be ready to go. I ready now... Sassy Bird loves to visit Grandma R. I ready to go, Dad says he going fishing with his Daddy this weekend. I not go fishing. Chip the old Dog that used to be my friend before he went over rainbow bridge, he went fishing with Dad. He was bigger and he could swim if he fell in the river. I not big enough to fight the river currents if I fall in. So I have to stay home.

Well Mom has to get packing so I have to quit typing.

Barney Dog.

Mom getting old

Mom turned 45 yesterday, She mowed the yard the night before so she could take the day off. She says I could not blog cause she was taking the day off. I not get older till September 11th. No I did not blow up the twin towers, I was born after that happened just on the same day. I was born in 2005. Nails was born in march on 2004. Wait I getting old too, I be 5 years old this year. It not fair that I get old in 10 years and Mom still not too old at 45. Nails is 6 now. She be 6.5 when I is 5. I hope Mom does not start looking at puppies. We not need no puppies even if Auntie Angie has a new litter of Min Pins for sale. I sure glad she lives all the way in West Virginia. Puppies too far away. Whew.

Oh Mom says we not get a puppy until I gets old and stiff, I better stay healthy and fast. I can run, I outrun the kids on their bicycles as they race me down the street. I inside my fence, they outside. Mom says I the best and she not want to train a puppy so we safe for long time yet. Whew.

We may be going to see Grandma this weekend, that will be good. Mom says she taking her dirt/street bike so she can ride it on the farm and around. I not seen my Grandmas or my cousin Min Pins in a long time. I not seen my blood sister Min Pin in a long time either. It be good to visit with them all. Even if I get fleas. Fleas will just have to die later. It about time for more treatment and more wormer anyway.

Well I hope you all had a good day yesterday, We did. I helped Mom lay around and take it easy when she was not off riding that stupid Motorcycle with her new saddle bags. Oh sorry. Forgot, not stupid motorcycle. Just motorcycle.

Catch you later, Barney.

Worked hard yesterday

What a day yesterday, Mom Mowed, then she cut the sleeves off some T shirts, then she ran the trimmer forever, she spent 2 tanks of gas and had to put on new string. The yard looks nice except for the camper and truck in the back yard. it will be there till next week when it gets taken to Grandma's so we can go visit her. I hope it does not kill our grass, we just got it back from the last time the camper was setting in it. IT takes up so much room we cannot see down the road without going around it. I hate it there.

Mom says she has to clean house today and maybe go shopping if it not rain too much. She not like to shop in the rain cause she takes the Kawasaki. I not mind her cleaning, but she could stay home, I like that best. Unless I get to go along. If we get to go along then YEAH. if we has to stay here then I hope it rains her shopping out.

Weird Light in Sky

That so sucks I like my tweets.

We had a weird light in the sky last night. It was 8:30pm and should have been dark I think. and it was cloudy and had been much darker earlier. But Mom looked out the frosted glass in the front door and saw an orange looking light. it looked almost like headlights to a car shining in the door. So they opened the window blinds back up and it was very bright outside again, but still the sun was under the clouds and the light was orange. It was very weird. No we did not get a photo, it is hard to take a photo of light. Plus no one thought of it at the time.

We all went outside on the back deck to look. Nails and I went pee, we did not think much of it. Light is light. But M&D thought it was weird.

Monday, June 7, 2010

Camper

The Camper smells nasty, dead Mouses in camper. They was live long nuf too pee and poop all over my camper, and then they ate green stuff and died. I told M&D not to leave the camper at Larry's. It all his Fault I know.

They clean and clean yesterday trying to get the dead mousies. Found nasty ones under the bed in the big storage compartment. Mommy gagged. LOL. I wanted to roll in them I did, but please do not tell Mom that.

Our bed got disinfected and our sheets and pillows and covers, and the fork drawer got taken in the house and everything ran through dishwasher with bleach gel in it. Then the drawer got bleached, and the pot holders washed. Mom said it was so yuck. They did not get in every thing cause some stuff up high they could not reach. Daddy worked hard, he cleaned too. Mommy kept gagging and leaving. LOL. I think that funny. Dad says he found their entry hole, but Mom says they still need to leave some food for them inside the storage compartment.

Oh well I not sure when we going somewhere but it ok as long as we get to go along cause I hate when we has to stay in kennel outside. The bird cage is in camper so that is good sign. We not loading clothes or anything so prob not going any time soon.

Biker Doggies

Min Pins should be the Official Biker Doggie. When you go to biker events there are always Min Pins. We look like big bad doggies but we small nuf to ride along. Some bikers have Min Pin baby holders for riding in front of them on their chest. Some bikers have trunk cages for Min Pins to ride in. Other Bikers have trailer cages for their Min Pins.

I have ridden in a milk crate on the back of bikes. I have ridden in an air plane crate on the back of Mommy's bike. Now she has a trunk and there is no room for me. Mom's Kawasaki she has for running around town I have ridden to the lake for walkie time. She had both of us in the milk crate once and we was too heavy. So she said no do that again. I small nuf I ok on back of bike, but 2 of us is too much squirming around.

Our bird sister Sassy used to ride on the back of Mom's Harley to the nursing home to visit Granny when we lived close. She would be strapped down in her travel cage and off they would go.

Monday, February 15, 2010

vacation

Mom and Dad getting ready for vacation. I can tell cause the camper is in the driveway and Mom is packing it. 2 of the bikes are loaded in the camper, and Dad got Viper all back together. Then the battery was dead. The battery is at least 3 years old. So now it needs a battery. Bad Viper she is all clean and ready to go, and she not start. Now viper has to have a battery and then she can be loaded in the camper with the other bikes.

We have to gets our Frontline flea medicine before we go stay at Granny's Then we stay and visit Granny for 2 or 3 weeks. Sassy bird will stay with Grandma too.

We wishes we could go along, but Mom and Dad are gone too often and too long from the camper and no one could let us out. We thinks we could go anyway. Sassy could go, but sometimes it gets hot and if Sassy was there they would have to run the AC.

Monday, February 8, 2010

breakfast n snow

It snowed last night and we not have to go to the bathroom. I swear we can hold it forever. It is slushy and nasty and we just will not have to pee till it melts. It is pretty deep but not soft like always, this is WET and cold.

Mom made this gluten free fry bread for breakfast, it smells like heaven I tried to stick my nose in her plate and not a smack on the nose, but it was worth it. Man it smells good. Nails can even eat this bread. Mom said we had to wait till she fixed the leftover batter then we could have some. We hate waiting.

We might even had to go outside and pee before we get any.

Tuesday, February 2, 2010

Lonley

Mom left us yesterday almost all day, then Larry the guy in the basement came home and I wanted to whip him, cause he not suppose to be home by himself I just know it. Until he gave me some puff corn to eat. Then he was ok.

Mom got her title and license lined out for the new motorcycle yesterday, and she got the insurance done too. Then she went and applied for her CCW at the sheriffs office. N we had to stay home and hold down the fort. Sassy bird hollered and yelled until Larry went and got her out and put her on her day perch, she was tired of being caged all day. He even let us go pee, so I guess he was ok.

It is suppose to be a little warm tomorrow. Mom is going to take care of us all day and clean house so she can go outside tomorrow.

We like our new Food Very much, thank you.

The only problem is that I always let my food set all day and then I would go in my crate and eat just before bed. But now when I get my food as Brunch around 11am I eats it all. Then when I go in there at night to eat it is all gone. I will have to get used to that. I really think since it is good food we should get twice as much. But Mom says we too fat now.

Nails Likes it and it makes her feel so good, she has been playing tug of war with me and everything. So glad she found a food she could eat that makes her feel good.

Coffin in Basement

Mom and Dad carried in this white Coffin and put it in the basement last night. Then today Daddy made wires go to it. Then he held up the lid and made Mom get in it. We did not like her getting in it. Then a bright light came out of it and hurt our eyes. It was very bright and Mom was stuck inside and could not get out. We was so worried about her. We licked her fingers and we tried to help her, but she shooed us away and then she told Dad we had to get locked out of the room cause we might burn our eyes. It was HOT and it was cooking Mom.

We not understand why Dad wanted to Cook Mom. We not like that thing at all. Mom was all happy about it, and she thanked Dad for making wires go to it. I think maybe we will have to watch her cause she might get in there again, and she might get cooked. It was really scary. I just hope they not put us in there..

new food

Mom found us a new food at Wal-Mart. Says it natural but that not usually matter.. Wheat and Barley Gluten is natural. Nails is allergic to Gluten and she can not get on bed, in truck, or on couch if she has gluten. We likes Purina One and it made us so shiny, but it hurts Nails.

Mom keeps trying new foods to find kind we like that Nails can eat. We had a nice one but we not like it, and only eat it after we very hungry. Mom says we need to like our food so we can be happy when we get it. Not just eat it cause we have too. Nails felt good eating the old kind but it not make us happy.

So she got this new kind we tried it this morning, and we both ate it right away. We looked at it and at Mom for a min, like what's this? Then we tried it and we ate it all. All is not very much cause we small. But we fat so we not needs much. Maybe we like this kind the label says it has no allergy ingredients in it. Mom read the label n it had no gluten grains in it. Now we just have to see if we keep liking it, and if it keeps our shine..

New Thing

Mom gave me this new thing, It was on her pants to hold them up. A soft string, It came out of the pants, Mom says it broke. It is purple. She was playing and she tied it in a knot and put it around my neck. Now it is MINE. It smells like Mommy.

I know she loves me best cause she gave it to me. I am not a fag it is the best, purple or not. It hangs down so I can play with the end. She took it off me and put it on Nails the other day and It made me really mad. It is mine. I barked and griped and danced on her until she put it back on me.

Then Dad took it off and I laid on it until Mom picked it up, then I shoved my head in it. I just do not understand why they want to take it off, She gave it to me and it is all mine. Dad says it does not need to be on me. But If I have my way I will keep it.

Mom says when they go on vacation and we goes to Grandma's that It will have to be off then cause the other dogs will pull on it and be mean to me with it. Or that it will cause fights. I just want to keep it.

(Min Pins are so funny, My brothers female is like this. When they were all getting new collars she was waiting for hers, and then when she got it my brother took it off and it really made her mad.)

Tomorrow is a stay at home alone most of the day, day. I just know.

Larry went home last night to see his ol lady. We do not know Twyla very well cause they have big dogs that would eat us so we can not visit their house. Mom says not to talk about their dogs cause their neighbor made them get rid of 2 of their dogs cause they were part pit bull, n he turned them in. I think they did something bad though before he did. I know Mom was scared of them enough that we could not go visiting there. They were friendly enough with people but she did not think they could play with us. They still have a big Rottweiler. He is still too scary for Mom even though he is getting old. She says he is fine for her and Dad but not for us.

I would show him, I would whip him good, I would go for his throat and kill him. Mom says that is why he would eat me. I really hates big dogs..

Larry is staying in the basement while he works at a local power plant, they live pretty far away and he could not drive every day, so he stays in the basement for a couple of months. I like him, he has these popcorn puffs that he shares with Nails and I.

The sexy black/n/tan neighbor Min Pin female went past for a walkie this morning. She not go walkie past here very often, she had on a sexy red sweater and I saw her leave p-mail in the neighbors yard. I sure would like to go check her p-mail. I barked at her but she ignored me.. I know she could hear me through the window... We walkie past her yard sometimes and she barks at us when she is out, she can come out whenever she wants cause she has a little Doggie door. I wants a doggie door too, but we not have one, Mom says it takes too much heat n A/C. Then we would have to have 2 of them to go through the screen door an the regular door.

I love my new Cow toy. It is hard plastic but it Moooosss. I love to take my foot and flip it, I bark at it. I carry it around. Nails gets tired of me barking at it and she growls and snaps at me. I think she just jealous cause I having fun. I's ignore her. I wish I could figure out how to make it Moo my self, like I can my squeaky toys.

Dad has this little black dog that flips over an barks. I hate it, I trys to kill it. He pets it and I grab its fur and pull, I really hates it. It not smell alive, but Dad fed it one of my treats, I know he did. I just wish I could kill it. I like my Cow though..

I setting here getting my quality time with Mom, Morning computer time is the only time Mom sets still so I can be with her, She says I hot, but she loves me so she just lets me roast her leg. In the evening I sets with Dad cause once he sets down he stays down, I crawl under the blanket with Him and Nails n we sleeps. I not understand how Mom sets with out a blanket, n she is hot. Mom is always hot.

We is thinking about vacation, I go to Grandma's with Sassy and Nails n we stay for 2 weeks at least. Now that the mean cat got ran over by a car, I will be much happier. Grandma had a mean cat that would set on chairs and jump off and grab us, He would corner me and slap me, I was always scared. When I got home It took me a week to relax. But now he is gone, so I not have to worry about him no more. He never slapped me with his claws, just his feet, but it scared me. He was mean.

We got up and Mom made her breakfast. I was able to set with her cause no taxes in the way. Then I got down to lick the plate and Nails had the gaul to take my seat. I showed um, I got right up in Moms lap between her and the computer. Then she shoved me over to the side, like I was nothin. So I began my work. We made Mom hot and sweaty. At that time I was pushing on Nails. I pushed and pushed... She might weigh more than me, but she a wuss.. I pushed her right out of my seat and got my place back. I was tired of those 3 days of tax papers taking my seat, so there was no way I was going to let Nails take my seat.

Dad at Work. He had to get some paperwork done today, and he says Mom's phone not answer his calls. I not sure why. It not even show missed calls. Going to have to go to verizon and ask them about it.

Well I better get some stuff done, time to go out and Pee and then eat my breakfast.

Mommie all Done taxin. I so happy now I can set by her when she computers. Boy I tell you she was on computer from out of bed to now. Then Dad come home and wants to know whats for supper. I was so proud of Mom, she did not get mad or yell. LOL. It is much cheaper to file with the online program through Jackson Hewett then to go to a store.
Mom has not time to type for me. She says taxes suck and stress her out and she has no time for typing. I can not type, Dog feet just do not work for that. I tell you what. I be glad when she done taxing. Suppose to get done this evening. But she wants to go in basement and run in place and then go to bank and shopping. Sigh..

home

We are home. What a long weekend, n it still not over. Sassy was so happy she got new bird food this evening. We was hungry for our food when we got home, the camper food is not as good as our food, even though it is the food we used to eat. The no grainer biscuits are good at either place.

It was so muddy at Grandpa H's house, that we had to stop to have feets wiped off every time we went out. I hates feet wiping it so sucks. Mom & Dad shot this board setting on a fence. I do not know why they were mad at the board, but they shot the heck out of it. I do not mind the shooting but Nails is so scared she wants to hide. I just stay back some cause it hurts my ears to get close.

We only got to see Grandma R for a little while, cause she left with Mom and Dad n we stayed at her house with REO and Alice. We had a Min Pin party.

Sassy never went to see Grandma W cause she was not along when they went. I can not go see Grandma W cause I bark at all the old people in the nursing home, and Nails can not go cause she is so friendly she scratches them trying to love them. If she could just keep her feet off and only use her tongue. She does ok till they reach out and then she scratches cause she gets so excited. Sassy is good in the nursing home and she sets on G W shoulder and loves on her.

Well I am tired, we gets to lay around all day tomorrow cause they going to go to Cabalas..

Taxes

Mom hates taxes, she gets all stressed out every year, she sets in floor with papers spread out all around her and we not allowed to walk on papers or get inside the paper ring unless we sneaks in and lays down and gets quiet. But then someone come to door, or make noise outside and we runs to bark and we spread papers, so we usually not allowed inside the paper circle. If we sneak in then we gets in trouble when we run out.

Sassy bird loves the papers and she likes to climb down from her perch and walk on them and beak them. It is so not fair that she gets to do whatever she wants and we have to stay out of the circle. That bird always gets whatever she wants, she gets on our humans plates and eats what she wants when she wants. If she is not on their plate she gets first choice out of the plate into her bowl. If she did not have that big beak. We could whip her for that.

I so glad when Mom done with taxes, she relaxes.

Does Mom need a Gun?

Well Mom is going to take this class that will let her apply for a conceal and carry gun permit. She says when we go walkie in the parks that she carries one anyway, and it would be nice to be legal. She says we not big enough to protect her.

We used to have foster Kids when we lived in Illinois, so she has already had a heck of a background check and is fingerprinted. She does not remember doing anything between now and then that would change it.

She says people with legal Conceal Permits are much more careful about the laws, because they know that if they screw up they will loose their permit, and no one with a permit that uses it wants to loose it.

I really think I could protect her just fine. I am big bad and mean. Everyone should be scared of me. I just do not understand why when I am being mean people laugh. It just makes me madder. Sometimes we walk with Sassy bird in a baby stroller in her travel cage. It is too much stuff to take along when we drive to the walkie places, but when we walk at home and it is warm out she gets to go along. We have been known to get hot and tired and get in the bottom of the stroller and take a nap. Talk about a good deal, if Mom wants to go too far we just cheat n ride in the stroller, it carries our water too.

Someone said we need to get some Doggie mace and carry it along. The neighbor lady with the black pug says she carries it. She says a loose dog could hurt us. She told Mom that with two Dogs and a bird in a stroller that she would not be able to protect us all from a stray loose dog, so she should carry Doggie mace. She agrees but has not remembered to pick any up. Mom says she would rather mace a mean dog than shoot it.

Dad says he is not going to get a CCW (conceal & carry permit) because he is afraid he might want to use the gun. Mom thinks he is silly, she says that he is not mean. But they go everywhere together anyway, so Mom will protect him. The thing is that when we walkie Mom never takes any money along, the only thing of value she has is us, and her phone. I guess bad guys do not think of that.

Barney.

To Fence or not to Fence?

I just want you all to know that fence is the only and best. If you have those collar things like these one dogs on our walks have it is ok, but it is not good for little dogs.. Big loose dogs can just walk in your yard. Now I know I am not alone when I say any big dog that comes in my yard is going to get a whippin to beat all whippin's. I will kill them, I am big, bad, and mean. This presents a problem because I am not really a full sized Pincher Like I think I am. I once was in the front yard and I jumped on the head of a Pitt Bull that was walking by with their human. Mom was so Mad at Dad for having me loose in the front yard. She said I was very lucky that the Pitt Bull was just a puppy and thought I was playing. But I know I whipped him I did.

Once We were in the back yard and a big black lab was loose and he and I threatened each other through the fence, I told him to get away. Mom came out when she heard us and made us go back in the house, he was big enough he could have jumped the fence if he had got mad enough. We still do not get to be loose in the back yard when our humans are not home, we have a big cage in the back yard with a floor and shade and a house and even a roof so we are safe there, so if they go on weekend biker rides we stay there, safe from big dogs. Mom still worries she says, silly Mom. The neighbors watch our water bowls and our food dispenser, They have even been known to throw treats in when no one was looking.

I love my fence, it gives us a place to run and play and poop. We can be out for a while if we want, We can get in the flower beds when no one is looking. We just have it made. I race the neighbor kids, I am so FAST that they can not even beat me when they are on their bicycles. You should have seen this one kid. Mom was on the porch and she heard them. They had a bet going, that the new kid could not beat me to the end of the fence with his bicycle. He LOST. Mom was laughing.. I am so FAST.. That kid saw me and he thought there is no way that little dog can out run my bicycle. I showed him..

We are not even mentioning the dangers of cars and trucks and traffic. So even if you live in the country we can get out on the road and get hit by a car.. We can wonder off and get ate by a coyote, or a hawk. We are your friend, your best buddy, your pal.. Make sure we are as safe as you can make us. If you take risk with our little lives we will do something stupid and then we are gone. Once we are gone you can not take it back. Sure you might have learned and put up a fence for the next one, but that does not help the one you lost. I love my fence, I can still see out, and I am as safe as they can make me without going overboard.

If you are worried about how a fence looks, and you have money, they make fences with glass centers that you can see through, Mom saw them on one of the home shows on TV. You just have post every so many feet with glass in between. Then your yard is still OPEN looking. There is always a way.

Take care of your selves, Barney.

Today

Mom made some really nasty rice noodles and we did not like them, even Sassy the noodle freak did not like them. They were cooked in turkey broth and Mom said she was going to add GarGum to thicken it but that she had her Cream of Tartar in the same kind of container, and got the wrong one. She put it in there and made the noodles taste sour. They went in the garbage disposal.

She blames it on some Aunt Flow who is always visiting, but we never see her. I wish I could find her so I could whip her. She is bad. Always makes Mom either an air head or makes her all grouchy and stressed out.

I really do not think it is this Aunt. What I think is that Mom gets that way when she comes in heat. Cause I can tell, that is when she acts funny. It is not fair cause when Nails used to come in heat they locked her up in her kennel and only let her out for bathroom breaks. She got used to it. Then one day she went away and came back with a big sore on her belly and she smelled different, now she does not come in heat. Maybe Mom should do that it would be a lot less stressful on her. Humans do the strangest things.

Sassy bird gets all grouchy one time of the year and even though her smell does not change as much, it does some, and I can tell that why she is that way. Then her and Mom will fight and she will bite for no reason at all. We guys are so lucky, we do not have that at all. Dad and I do just fine together. I glad I a boy.

This is Mim's She was Grandma's R's girl, she Went over the rainbow bridge the same day as Grandpa R did. Coyotes got her when she want for a walk. It was very very sad for Grandma.










This is Millennium Mechanic, or Mech. Pronounced Mac. He was also eaten by a coyote. He was out walking in the woods with Dad and chased a deer off. Nails was along that day and she saw what happened, she was scared for days Mom said it could have been a Hawk that got him too, cause we never found him and our tracking buddy dog would loose the scent and could not pick it back up. He was with Mom and Dad before I came. I think I am here cause he is gone. Dad heard him scream, and then he could not find him. He found Nails fast, but never found Mech.





This is Alice in Chains, she is getting a little old, but she is still alive. She is Uncle Jeffrey's girl. She was along with Mim's when the Coyotes got her, but she came home ok.

More Min Pin Family

Family Min Pins.

The dogs on the pink pillow. The little black one is "Little Bit" she is my real full blood litter sister, she was the runt. She almost died, and took forever to get some weight. She lives with the Big Fat brown Min Pin at the top. He is Coco and he is Nails real blood half brother, they have the same Sire. They live with our Grandma and Grandpa Hill, Daddy's parents, so they must be our aunt and uncle?

The big black & tan is a, Well I forget her name, she is young. Then the other brown one on the bottom of the pink bed is Natty, she is my Real Blood Momma. Their Momma is Daddy's Sister, Aunt Angie and they should be our cousins. But Natty is my Momma and Little Bit is my sister, I like to play with them when we visit them, but they girls and you know how girls are, it takes 2 days before they want to play and then it is time to leave. Figure women. Aunt Angie has a boy black and tan, his name is Coal, but we do not have his picture.





The black dog setting up is REO Speedwagon and his human Momma is our Mom's Mom, Grandma R. The standing black dog is Nails, and the brown dog who's butt is in the photo is Alice n Chains. Her Dad is Mom's Brother, Uncle Jeffrey. The other butt is mine.
This is what Mom calls her walkie View. This is the view Mom and Sassy have of us when we go on walks. Nails got too fat for her safety vest.












This is us this Fall walking on the new kitchen tile before anything else was put back in the kitchen. I am the one looking at you.

I picked the photo of nails where I was blocking the view of her.. Mom said I could post that one, but that I had to also put in one where you could see her. She said people wanted to see her, so I was going to show you her like this.

















We were younger and thinner in these photos. Just like people. LOL. Mom said the pink carpet sucked and she glad it gone.

Here is my sister Sassy, she is a Red Lord Amazon, whatever that is. She usually says she is a Pretty Bird or a Pretty Chicken. I never heard her say Pretty Amazon.. She thinks she is the boss of the house. She is ok cause she throws us food off her perch. But she is not Boss I am. Sheesh, as if.

Friday, January 8, 2010

Good Morning, my name is Barney I am a Miniature Pinscher. I am very very sexy. I am a boy but Mom says I am missing some boy parts, so I will never have any kids. I do not remember loosing those parts, cause it was over fast, and only hurt a couple of days.

My ears were cut when I was young, but it hurt a lot. It makes me very sexy, but it hurt. I do not mind them being touched now though. Mom said she would never do it again unless it was done when they was just a tiny baby. My sister Nails had hers done when she was 3 days old and she not remember at all, and it never hurt her much at all.

I was born on Sept 11, 2005. Mom says I have an important birthday, but I not sure why.

Dad and I have been working in the basement, he put down tiles with mud and I was not allowed in the mud or to walk on the tiles. I really wanted to play in the mud, and what is wet grout anyway. We are getting ready for some painting today. I like to get under the drips and get polka dots. This evening I will have yellow dots. Winter is good for working inside cause it is too cold to even go out to pee. But you have too. Dad shoveled us a path so we could go out and poop. the snow is over our backs.

I have one sister Nails who is also a Min Pin. I have another Sister Sassy, who is a Red Lord Amazon Bird. Nails whole name is Nine inch Nails she was born in March of 2004 while Mommy and Daddy where in Florida for Bike Week. Sassy was born about 1997, at least that is close to when. She can live for 80 years so she is a teen now.
