Weekend's over...

Well, it was a pretty uneventful weekend. Mom was sick so she pretty much slept a lot. BORING.

She took Smokey to see Dr. Osterholm on Friday though. Turns out the lump on his neck is a papilloma and is benign (not sure what those two things mean, but mom said them and she seemed happy about it, so I guess it's good news). Mom has to put medicine on it a couple of times a day and poor Smokey got his neck shaved. He looks stupid with that big bald spot, but I don't want to tell him that and hurt his feelings.

Mom had that stupid camera thingy out on Saturday and was taking pictures of us. Sometimes I wish I could tell her that enough is enough. She sees us all the time, why does she need to take pictures? Crazy woman.

The weather is warm today (70). I'm still hoping for a trip to Colorado. Turbo offered me a ride and Holly said that her clan would like to go too. So, what time will Turbo be in Omaha? I've got to go to Turbo's blog and find out. I'm excited! WOoooooooo wooooooooooooo....

Well, nothing else new here. As soon as those pictures are in the computer, I'll get them put on the post to share with you guys.

Hope you all have a great week and I'll talk to you soon!

I wanna go to COLORADO...... NOW

Hello everyone! I don't know if your humes have had the box with the people in it on lately, but mine have and there's a man inside that said something about snow in a place called Colorado. He said there was a lot of snow--something like 3 feet (which makes me curious about the shoes they're wearin with only 3 feet).

Anyway, I want to go there NOW!

Can you imagine the drifts of snow we could pounce in and the tall piles of it to dig in? I'm a husky dog and we husky dogs LOVE our snow. We love the way it smells, feels, tastes, looks, crunches under our toes, EVERYTHING!

I wonder if that much snow will come to Nebraska. I'm sure my mom and dad wouldn't like it, but Smokey and I would LOVE it.

Watch the box with the people in it and see what he says about snow coming to your area. It's a very exciting time when that happens!

The night of the scary people.....

Well, hello to all. I have be giving Halloween a lot of thought these past few days. Every year, these scary humans show up wearing goofy clothes. I get rather excited when I hear the doorbell ring (I like visitors...A LOT) and then my mom opens the door and there is some scary person asking for candy!

I'm not going to lie to you, it kinda freaks me out a little (ok, a lot). Not to mention all the anger that gets built up.

What is this day all about? Some of them are small people and some are bigger ones. Mom and dad say nice things to them like "aren't you darling" and "oh my, you're cute" UM HELLO?!?!?!?!?! What 'bout ME?? I'm cute and darling!

Are they all furry and soft and full of slobbery kisses? Who is it that cuddles with you when you're sad or cold or just tired and makes you laugh when you're upset? ME!

Who chews your shoes, opens the cabinets to take canned foods out into the yard, and scratches and claws at you? ME!

What about the kisses I give? You know, the ones where I smush my pink wet nose on your lips and drag my overbite just enough so that you feel my front teeth on your chin? Hmmm??? Have you forgotten about that?

Maybe I need to distort my face, show my teeth, growl, and foam at the mouth a bit to be "oh just so cute"? Listen lady, I'll do it. I swear I will.

Sorry, I had to vent. I am hoping my hume will read this later and maybe remember that it is I, KELSEY that gives her so much joy and deserves to be the "darling" one. Ok, and maybe Smokey too. He is my brother and I will give him props.

Well, I hope that all of you other furry critters out there get at least one of those "darlings" on Halloween night. I know I'm going to do WHATEVER it takes to get one here in Omaha.

Signed by the "darling" ones in Omaha (even if our humom doesn't see it) hmpffhhhh

I have many questions...

Today I spent the day pondering things while my mom slept. Ready? There's a lot I need to know...

1. When your hume brushes you outside and it's windy, where does all the hair go?

2. When we meet new dogs, we give'm a good ole' sniffin. When humes meet new humes, they shake hands. Why don't they give'm a good ole' sniffin?

3. Still wondering what the guy that comes over on Monday's is doing taking my poop out of the yard. Why does he want it?

4. Why do I only want the things I can't have and then once you finally cave in and give it to me, do I not want it anymore?

5. Why can't I have the animals I catch in the back yard to keep as toys (or snacks)? I caught them.

By the way......

Helloooo! Smokey here. Kelsey finally stopped hogging the computer long enough for me to get my two cents worth.

Yes I'm the one that barks a lot, but it's just because I'm old and wise and have a lot to say. Also, I am not a weenie as Kelsey likes to say that I am...I am just not as young as I used to be and I don't see the point in running around like my tail is on fire all the time, like he does.

I do find comfort in the normal daily things like sleeping on the furniture, getting my belly rubbed, sniffing my humes hair, and licking my butt. These are normal daily things that I find absolutely relaxing.

I like that Kelsey put pictures of both of us on the website, however, I feel like they don't really capture my true beauty and he chose the ones of him that do. I will have to dig for some good ones of myself when he's not around, unless he drooled on them all when he was digging through them. Hard to say with that one.

I like having a brother, but I don't always like having to share everything. I know it's the only fair thing to do, but I don't necessarily enjoy it. I do like the chicken and green beans we get and that was something we get because of Kelsey being overweight, so I guess that's a good thing about his being here.

I do like that my humom spends more time brushing him and less time brushing me. He's got more hair and I enjoy watching him be tortured. It's fun. He runs around and barks like he's scared or mad, but I think he kinda enjoys the attention. I'd rather have a good scritchin' behind the ears any day of the week.

If you furry friends get a chance, check out my humom's website. It's www.cjanimalrightsgroup.com She and Hollybollyboo's humom have a animal rights group and the website is full of information about safety and stuff that helps to keep us furry friends safe. Good information for your humans to read. Also, there's a kids page for the younger humes in your homes.

Gotta go for now!

Smokey

Yucky day

Well, it has been a yucky day according to my humom. The weather is nice and cool and the mist isn't really bothering me cuz I've got husky hair. Not sure if it's bothering Smokey too much though, he's just layin around being lazy.

My humom said she found a lump on Smokey under his right ear. She seemed really freaked out about it. Mom always freaks out when one of us has even the smallest things wrong. Looks like poor old Smokey has to go to the doctors this Saturday to get it checked out.

I'm healthy though. I've not had a seizure in over a month and my weight is getting under control. My humom is very happy with me.

A couple of weeks ago she gave us some nummies and I mushed it onto her bed with my pink snout. She now calls me Mush Mush. I think it's cute and when she says it, my tail wags a lot. I'm not sure why it does that. It just does.

Anyway, I better go back to sleep. Dad doesn't know I'm on the computer.

Kelsey

Green Beans Galore

Well, our humom went to the place where she goes and comes home with bags of food. She brought us home something she calls green beans. She says they're fresh and that they are good for us.

I was skeptical at first. I mean, someone comes to you with something skinny and green to eat and it smells like grass (which you're normally in trouble for diggin up and eating to begin with)
anyway, she wants us to EAT these things. I am normally not shy about food, so I bite onto the cold green food...crunch....crunch........................crunch.................YUMMY! This new fresh food is delicious! Crispier than grass, tasty, juicy, and good for me too? My humom sure is smart.

I beg and beg for more and so does Smokey. We love our new green cold beans. I think we've had them cooked before, but then they were mushy and didn't taste the same.

Anyway, I hope all of you other furry friends reading this ask your humom and hudad for some of them. They're good for you and really tasy.

More later,
Kel & Smokey

Monday Monday

Well, no rain like my humom promised. No matter though, it was chilly out and I got to run around out in the wind.

My humom and hudad bought yet another child safety lock for the cabinet with the trash can in it. Guess what, I STILL got it open while they were sleeping last night. I don't think they were as amused as I was that I got it open. Oh well, I guess they'll try another kind of latch someday.


I would like to let you all know that the temperature in Omaha will be getting pretty darn cold. Add some snow and it'll be perfecto!

Smokey and I like to frolic in the snow. I especially like when the snow drifts and I can run through it. I also like when my humes shovel it off the deck and I can run into the flying snow and bite at it. Only thing is that it makes my teeth cold.

This morning the man that comes to take away our poopie came again. I barked at him a lot. He seems nice and pets us both when we come out to see him in the yard. I just don't understand why he wants our poopies. What could a human possibly need with it???

Not much else to report here. I am glad that I'm meeting all of the other furry friends on dog blog and hope to meet more and more!

Have a great Tuesday! (oh, and if you know why the human takes our poopie, could you please enlighten me?)

Kel and Smokey

Ready for the weekend!

Well, my humom says the weather is supposed to be really nice (possible rain)...we know what that means, THE DIRT WILL BE AWESOME FOR DIGGING!!!!!!!!

I can't wait to go out and get my white paws all goopy in the dirt. I can feel it now-grass between my toes, fur all clumpy with mud, oh the smell of it. I don't know what could be better!

Then, the real fun comes...I go in through the doggie door, lightening fast so she can't catch me with that towel she's holding to wipe off my feet, I slide all around on the shiny floor in the kitchen, making sure to get each corner of it nice and sloppy. Then I'm off to the rooms with the furry floors (my humom says it's something called carpet or something like that). Then, onto the furniture (couch, chair, and beds). Oh what fun I'm going to have!

Smokey doesn't usually partake in this fun. He's to proper for that. He just watches me thinking that he's better than me. Silly fool, he doesn't know what he's a missin.

Later, when my humom tries to get me into the box with the hose and water to wash me off, I'll run like mad out the doggie door again so she can't catch me.

It's going to be sooooo much fun! Wooooooooo woooooooooooooo!

Things I do to make my humom crazy...
1. Open the toilet lids with my nose. (I don't drink from there, but she doesn't know that and it's fun to keep her guessing)
2. Nip and bite her while she's sleeping. Why doesn't she understand that I just wanna play?
3. Get into the trash and cover the shiny floor with it.
4. Open cases of pop and hide the cans all around the house...hide and seek anyone?

Hope all my canine friends have great weekends and that they have many adventures!

Woo woo,
Kel
