Why Fudge and Vern Will Not Be Going on the Doodle Cruise!

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

There is a lot of talk about the upcoming Doodle Cruise in October, 2012, that Jane (Rooney &Stuart) is organizing.

People are also asking if their doodles are invited and unfortunately, the cruise is only for humans. Even if doodles were invited, Fudge and Vern would not be going and here are some reasons why:

 

First of all, what do dogs even bring on a cruise. Vern eats a lot and I would have to bring a huge amount of food. What if we are out to sea and we run out of dog food? I over pack with just my stuff. How would I fit all that food into my suitcase?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fudge is not a great swimmer and needs a life jacket most of the time. What if they don't have her size on the boat for the ship's pool? If my suitcase is full of my stuff and Vern's food, how am I going to get a life jacket in there too?

Another big worry....what would happen if they went overboard because they saw a fish in the water and decided to try and catch it.

I think this captain would turn the boat around and pick them up in the water:

But, does this guy look like he would:

I cannot even imagine what Vern would do if he saw this big guy in the water:

Or this on deck: (Remember he is afraid of Lawn Chairs)

It would be fun, though, if they could do this in the water:

 

We have a real problem keeping their water dishes full at night. I am afraid they might resort to this on the cruise:

Also, Fudge and Vern like to party. My husband and I go to bed early and they could sneak out and get in a lot of trouble. We have all heard of shipboard romances and Fudge does like the bad boys. What if this is what she is doing, while we are sleeping:

Don't get me started on Vern. He can be a follower and if he gets mixed up with the wrong crowd  our trip could be ruined:

Finally, we have all heard about pirates on the open seas and I bet Labradoodles could be a hot commodity on the Black Market. I cannot have anything happen to my Doodles by a group of these guys:

So, all things considered, my two doods are staying home where they are safe and sound.

ROFL, I am up for this! How many doodles can we fit in one yard...

[F, Calla & Luca]

As many as want to come. Well maybe not if 8000 people wanted to bring their doodles : )

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

Tomorrow?  We'll be there as soon as Ned and Clancy get their thumbs ready for hitch hiking.

[Heather & Brinkley]

Love this!!

Thanks, Heather!

Hahaha, too funny! Great job with the storytelling and illustrations! I thought it was odd that Zeus is afraid of doors, but lounge chairs? That's pretty bizarre. Poor Vern.

Barbie, I could write a book on all the things that scare 90 pound Vern. Here is my blog to help about the lawn chairs:

Bwahaha!

Laurie, you are hilarious!

I am not going on the cruise, but even if I were, JD would be staying at home. As the President of the Naked Doodles Club, there is just no way he could be persuaded to dress for dinner.

Karen, I think you should come. I want to meet you :) Anybody who can wear an Intercourse shirt like you do, should go on the Doodle Cruise.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

I want to meet you, too, Laurie, but you couldn't get me on another cruise ship if you paid me. Once was enough. I would rather go to prison than go on a cruise. In fact, I imagine being in prison is very similar to being on a cruise, except you don't have to tip the guards.

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Karen, Are you absolutely sure....just kidding! I usually hear that everyone who goes on a cruise loves them. I have never been before and now you have me very curious about your cruise. Regardless, I know we will meet one day.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

I know most people love cruises, but I don't think it comes as any surprise to anyone here that I tend not to be like most people, lol.

I'm sure the doodle cruise will be a lot of fun, though.
