I'm fun!

Some people think that I'm not that much fun. It's true! My opinion is that you have to be a fun girl if you wear a lobster stuffie on your head.

Carpet Cleaning

If all goes well, Joey will be arriving either next Saturday or the Saturday after that. There are a lot of people involved in getting him here so it all has to be coordinated. He's coming from Tulsa. He will be brought to Missouri and picked up by members of our group. I think they meet at like a halfway point. The same thing happened when I was adopted.

Mama and Daddy have been talking about cleaning our carpets and decided today would be a good day to do it. Mama said it might keep Joey from trying to mark if we could get Jack's smell out of the carpet and furniture. I don't know if it really matters, but Mama said the carpet needed to be cleaned anyway. We would have cleaned it before we moved in, but we were all anxious to get out of the hotel.

I didn't think we needed to clean the carpet as you can tell from the photos.



I finally gave up trying to save the carpet from the cleaning and retreated to the bedroom. They even cleaned my couch, so now it's wet. ::::sigh::::

Daddy's Coming Home Tonight

It's been a long week, but Daddy is finally coming home tonight. He's leaving again on Sunday for a fishing trip. :-(

We were asked where we buy my treats. We buy them from Best Bully Sticks. Their prices are good and their shipping is fast.

Mama gave me pumpkin today because my stomach is acting up. I loved it! She said she will put it in my frosty treats. Yummy! I can't wait.

We haven't heard anymore on a possible eta for Bubba aka Joey. His ID tag arrived yesterday and his ID collar will be here on Monday. Mama bought material to make us new collars. She found some that she thinks will look really nice on Joey and she may have enough to make me one, too. I hope so.

Do you think Joey is as excited as we are?

My Surprise Arrived!

It has been a very lonely week because Daddy is out of town. It's just been Mama and me. My surprise finally arrived yesterday and just in time because I've been really blue.


Beef trachea and green tripe sticks......yummy!

Last night, Mama surprised me with a trip to Dairy Queen. I didn't get anything. I had to wait until we got home and then I had a homemade Frosty Treat. It was nice to get out of the house though. It's supposed to storm this evening, so I guess Mama and I will be stuck in the house.

Daddy is coming home tomorrow night, but then he is leaving on a fishing trip for a few days. :::sigh::: I really hope Bubba aka Joey arrives soon. I don't like being an only dog. Life just isn't as much fun when there is no one to share sniffs, bones and toys.

I'm Getting A Bubba!

I'm getting a Bubba! What's a Bubba? It's my new brother! His name is UCME Bubbasparks. His Daddy's name is Be My Bubba, so it's a family name. We are changing his name though even though I think saying Bubba is fun and easy. Bubba, Bubba, Bubba! His name will be Joey. Awwww! Daddy will probably call him Joe. You should have heard all the names they mentioned. Sparky would have been good, but Daddy said no. Joey is the only name that they could agree on, so that's his name. I hope he likes it. They tried to name me Katie and I refused to accept it. I'm a Scout and that is that.

His birthday is November 1st. Mine is November 19th. He will be four this year and I will be six, so I'm the big sister now. He is 90% white with a brindle patch over one eye and we think he has brindle on both ears, but it's hard to tell in his photo. His last race was in August and he's been waiting for a home since January. He's still living in a kennel. Isn't that sad? Can you imagine how much his world is going to change? He's going to love living in a house, riding in the car, going camping, eating Frosty Treats, etc.

(He has a huge tongue. It was 104 when this photo was taken. We don't think he normally looks like this. LOL)

He is cat safe and he even tried to lick the cat. He is interested in the TV that's in the kennel. Could he be another Judge Judy fan? He travels well which is really good since we camp so much. He sounds like a nice guy. I hope he likes me.

Mama ordered his name tags yesterday as well as an ID collar. I got new ones, too! She said she might make him a new collar this week. She has some material that she bought for Jack that she never used. She's sad by that, but it's silly not to use it for Joey. Mama said that Joey needs some colorful collars because with his white hair, they will really show up on him.

We are not sure when he will be arriving. He is having his medical this week or at least that is the plan. There is a lot of planning and scheduling to get him here, so we are being very patient. We know he is in good hands and pretty soon he will be here and he will take over the blog for me because blog writing is really not my thing.
