Booming Banter

These past few evenings have been mercifully quiet since I gave up fighting over the Nyla bones.

Jaws moves from one to the other but these things are tougher than steel. She is making little inroads on either of them unlike the other indestructibles that the bro bought which have been delightfully destructed !!!

Such is the power off the Nyla that even Dad got concerned last night that she might hurt her teeth.

Eventually even Pitty persisted no more and climbed on the sofa for a snuggle.

She then proceeded to pass out with a strange sort of slobber slipping from her lip.

Ma just wiped it off and went on listening to TV.

She says snoozing savages are so sweet!

We slept in this morning.

Ma says it’s an inevitable consequence of the days getting shorter.

The sun is not up as our six o’clock alarm anymore.

I may have to kiss her like that Prince did in that fairy story to get her going.

The later light has its benefits as you know who doesn’t wake up as early either.

She has big ears though so as soon as we get moving so does she. Tortured I am and it’s starting to show!!!

It’s real pretty at present so when we do shake ourselves it’s blue skies ahead.

If there was any justice in this world the PIT would be dead.

She isn’t content with just her own Nyla she wants mine too.

I make all the right moves to get the jaw breaker and then she snatches it from under my nose.

I have some ideas though. We’ve been watching a new series about The Boleyns.

I think she’s just like that Anne gal.

Never content, always wanting more.

Off with her head I hear you scream!

Oh that’s just the perfect position Princess!

Don’t they say the past has a habit of repeating itself?

Joint publication today from your favs.

Light bulbs turned on in our heads yesterday or as they say in Northern Ireland « the penny dropped »

If we behave and make our parents happy we get great gifts.

During their shopping séjour yesterday while we were at the spa they got us « indestructible » toys.

We were given some of our rewards last night while the fam watch Belfast on HBO.

While they were fixed on the film we were busy chewing.

Our teeth are a little worse for the wear today but we are looking forward to attacking the biggest Nyla bones the bro could find tonight.

May need an epic like Gone with the Wind to work through these!

Did you think I’d died?

Chance would be a fine thing!!

What a day!!!

Jaws and I have been for our trial run at the spa!!!!

Ma and the bro dropped us off at 9:30 and took off. They stuck around town for 90 minutes just incase things didn’t go good and then they took off for Indian lake.

Five hours later having feasted at Woodys and taken the long way back via the wind farms they returned to find we had passed the test.

We had such fun.

We were outside all day running around with other pups.

We were so happy.

So too were our parents. It was like we’d passed our exams and got into college all in one day.

Cousin Krishna sent us a little ditty that we read just now when we woke up. Got us thinking about our life.

It’s true plants have a relatively easy time just sitting in the sun doing their thing.

But imagine if you couldn’t have a trot or eat snacks.

There would be no point in shaking yourself of a morning and giving yourself or your dependents a face wash.

Worse still you couldn’t go car and find treasures or look them up on eBay and find they’re worth 100 times more than you paid for them and get that Antique Roadshow buzz.

Oh no I very definitely want to be a dog next time around

We’re in a terrible rush this morning.

Ma is doing her Kairos Team formation again this is week. Four of six meeting done!! Once training is completed the team will be going for the planned weekend at the Ohio Reformatory for Women from October 6-9.

Kairos means Gods time.

Ma loves it.

She also loves when numbers roll around to a significant milestone and you have the camera at hand to capture them because it happens just as you hit the lights.

This is the highest number we’ve ever had on a vehicle.

Now we are committed to keeping on counting we’re going for 200000!!

Let’s hope we make it too! It will be a mix of chronos with kairos!!!

While I wait for her return I’m off to dream of some exercise!!

As it says on the screen AN ANSWER TO PRAYER

Full recovery in place for the monster. Driving Dad demented ripping up rugs and towels and toys.

She must have an empty tummy.

Tucked right into one of the bro’s old souvenirs he’d won at a fun fair.

She’s a fast worker too took her about ten minutes to shred it.

Maybe we should get her a job in waste disposal.

She’s currently working on cleaning the chair. Loves the leather.

See how methodical she is at the job. Wonder would those people who cleaned the carpet find a use for her?

She could go to work each morning and come back at night and pay for snacks. I’ll have a word with her

Hi Pit Peeps hope you are feeling perky because I’m not.

What trauma I have endured these past days. That tummy trouble then the trip in the trunk and now this horrible prick in my precious pretty person. It hurt me so!!!

It also made me a little sluggish and shaky and so sleepy and sad. Not my usual pretty precious persona.

Last night I stayed close to my Dad. He is so loving and caring and I was holding on to Granny’s apron strings a little tighter than normal. She’s not a bad old gal especially when she knows I’m not myself.

Even the Gizz was good and watched over me.

Tomorrow I’ll be back to usual and I’ll grab him by the throat to show him we can play.

So you’ve probably been wondering where we went yesterday. You won’t believe this. The Addams Family Granny is smarter than my Mom!

The plan was Morticia and me would spend a half day at doggy day care to see if we qualify for boarding in October at the Spa! You need to be refined to go to the Spa! No bad behavior! Might rule out Mort!

The bro and Ma had all the paperwork with them to show our vaccination records.

Problem is Ma didn’t look past the first page of Morticia’s file. The PITs rabies was valid but her other vaccines expired last week!

So result is they couldn’t let her in. I could have stayed as I’m smart and all shot up like Itt but Ma wouldn’t leave me without the PIT.

So home we came. All the way the bro was on the phone negotiating with the vet tech to get an earlier appointment for the beast. He’s very persuasive my bro. Charming just like Gomez. He got an appointment for tomorrow at 4:30. Maybe he’ll take her flowers!

We found Dad with a face like Fester surrounded by carpet cleaners who had arrived to clean in our absence.

Result. Jaws got locked up in the bros room and I was left in the screened porch to stew. It was then that Ma got a call that she’d left her card at the dog spa. It’s forty minutes away!!!!

So off the Bro and Ma went leaving me still on the porch and Dad still surrounded by carpet cleaners.

Worst of all they stopped for lunch on the way home again and didn’t bring me a scrap.

We’re now rescheduled for our test run on Monday. This is set to be a soap opera!!!!

In the meantime Mort and I have agreed we need team work to return this carpet to its usual doggy perfume. Currently it smells like Channel! Simply Monstrous to me!!!
