New Approach To The Rams

Scout and I are taking a new approach to watching the Rams' games. We are not going to put our Rams "gear" on. It seems to be making them play bad. We haven't worn any Cardinals "gear" and they are they are in the playoffs. Do you think it will work?

Mama and Daddy shocked us today. They gave us BATHS! I had to go first and Scout was so worried about me. She sat outside the closed bathroom door and cried for me. I wanted to come in and watch her bath, but Daddy said that wasn't fair since she didn't get to watch me.

Okay, the Rams are on. Wish us luck. LOL

The Calendar Is Here!

We received the calendar that my picture is in. It is the wall calendar. Last year, I was in the desk calendar. The picture that was chosen is one of Mama's favorite. It was taken last year when I was playing in the snow.

The picture is a small one. We had hoped it would be the big one, but then we wouldn't have anything to shoot for next year.

Are you ready to see it?



Do you see me? I'm at bottom on the right. Here's a close up of me.



Mama says the red background really makes my picture "pop". It scared me when she said that, but she said it was a good thing.

Thanks for looking!

Move Over Scout, I'm a Star, Too!

Mama received her Celebrating Greyhounds Magazine today. She flipped through it and told me that I wasn't in it. She said "it's a good thing, Jack because look at how torn up this magazine is. It must have gotten caught in a postal machine." Tonight, she was looking through the magazine and screamed, "JACK, YOU ARE IN THE MAGAZINE!"

Yep, that's right, I'm in the magazine. (Happy Dancing) Here Scout and I are looking at it. Scoutie got it all wet with her nose. Sisters!



Until Scout's calendar arrives, I'm the star.

Football is back! Update - Rams are loosing BIG time!

We have our Ram's gear on and we are anxiously awaiting kickoff at 3 p.m. cst. We love football Sundays because it's also "Family Day" at our house!!!

Go Rams!!!

Update: Rams are loosing big time. We thought we scored once, but there were too many Rams on the field.

Here I am after we scored, but then they took it away from us.

Here's another shot of me. It's not flattering though. I look really loooong.


Why do I get so excited about football? I always end up feeling sick while watching. Rams really haven't been good since I've lived here. Mama said they won the Super Bowl in 2000, but I wasn't even born then.


That's it 28-0. Scout and I refuse to watch any more today. We aren't watching next week either. Well, if we do it will be in the camper. Yep, we will be camping.


At least we had a nice family day.

Breaking News.....

Mama found out yesterday. We are so excited! We do not know for sure which photo has been chosen, but we know which one is our favorite. The calendars are in the mail, so hopefully we will have it next week.

I'm So Embarrassed!

Yesterday, I was laying on the bed. I was roaching like this only my eyes were closed because I was sleeping.

The next thing I knew, I was on the floor. Mama said I made a big thump. Scout ran over to see if I was okay. I told her to get away from me and that I meant to do that. Mama started laughing. I gave Mama a big stink-eye. It's bad enough when you do something embarrassing, but it's really bad when you get comments from the peanut gallery.

Relaxing On The Porch

Our weather has been beautiful here. It has been in the 60's and 70's. Mama told me this morning that we were trying an experiment. She said she was going to let me lay on the front porch while she worked and if it wasn't too much of a distraction for her, it might become a regular activity for me.


See how happy I am. I'm just enjoying my morning. I have to wear my harness and a cable. The cable is tied to the bench. Mama opened her office window and I could hear her talking on the phone, so I knew she was close by. The picture is taken from Mama's office, so you can tell she is right there watching me. There is a door right behind me and Mama left it open at first so that I could come in quickly if I needed to, but then Mama said the lizards that run on the porch could get in the house and that would be scary. She also didn't want the hummingbirds to get in. There sure are a lot of rules around here about what can and cannot get in our house.

Sassy, the feral cat, walked by. I ignored her. Mama is so happy that I have a low prey drive.

When I came back inside, Scout had to check me out. She was worried about me being outside by myself. I told her that Mama was watching me the whole time so it's not like I was really by myself. Scout is such a woman. She worries about everything.
