Rainy Day Puppy Blues

[DJ & Chance]

Another weekend arrived with lots of wet, sloppy rain.  

I’m a mud puppy at heart, but my mom is not overly fond of this trait and decided to try and entertain me inside instead. 

 

I played with lots of toys, but these are not as interesting as grass and sticks and the smells of the outdoors.

 

I put on my best hangdog poses, but she didn't seem to care.

Mom tried to divert my attention with grooming and treats.  Grooming sucks but the treats she gives me for holding still are extra special.  And so I was extra good.

 

She made me practice my sit-stays (hey mom, I already know how to do this, sheez).

 

We listened to mom's corny music.  And we read our DK email, which cheered me up a bit.

 

 

 

 

Finally, when we were both grumpy, I made her go to the window and she saw that the rain was turning to a drizzle.

 

 

My mom got her boots and umbrella out and we braved the great outdoors together. 

The deck where she let me play was wonderful, and the sun had begun peeking through the clouds—just for me!

 

I am one happy doodle.

I loved your story Chance.  Looks like mom is taking very good care of you.  Also, could you be any cuter?

Thanks Lucy, Jane, Christine Karen, and Deanna.  The sun is out today and things are looking up!

What a cutie pie you are, Chance.  Hang in there - my husband just saw a flock of geese flying north, so maybe we'll have an early spring and the rainy days here in California may soon be over.
