bogging blues

I apologize for not blogging lately. I have been SO very busy. Recently my owners bought me a new house, so I have been very diligently packing my puppy items. I try to help my owners by packing things under the bed, but they don't seem too happy when I do that. I am just trying to help?!?

Anyways this blog is to let you know I will be taking a small blogging break while I move my owners into our new home. But I will be back as soon as I get internet set up in the new house. So keep checking back! Thank you for your faithful readership!

Doglight savings...

I am so disoriented! The past two days my owners have been keeping such weird hours. It seems as if on sunday they decided to change their whole routine up and I cannot understand for the life of me why? We all have been sleeping so well. Why on earth would they want to get up at what seems like a whole hour earlier than usual?!?!

I don't get it. Like yesterday, I didn't want to get out of bed but they dragged me out into the cold morning to do... you guessed it "GO potty!" So I decided to change it up and this morning I got up an hour before them and made a bunch of noise so they would have to take me out to go potty a whole hour earlier (5AM human time). Hopefully this will change their mind about waking me up early tomorrow! --bol!-- barking out loud

Friday blues

I have the Friday blues. Fridays my owners try to sleep in as late as possible. So I am sitting here in my crate, bored outta my wits. So I decided to just start typing and tell you about my Friday Blues. I tried to wake up my owner at 6:00 this morning. I was ready to go for a run. He didn't seem at all happy to go outside with me?!?! What was his deal?

I struck every cute pose possible and I even went potty really fast. But, nothin... He just stood there like a zombie. It is so quiet and nice this early! I was ready to get the day started. Then... I got dragged back in the house and put back in my crate? what the heck?!? But then I checked my "Great Dachshunds in History" wall calendar, and I remembered. Oh... It's Friday... 

See, Friday is my owner's day off. They like to roll around in bed until some horribly late hour like 8AM or even 830. Are you kidding me?!?!? All the squirrels and birds have gone by then. What am I going to chase after now? Anyways, at least I have my trusty computer to check out how to install "puppy-cam" in my crate, so you can get a live feed of me 24 hours a day!!! I can't even imagine the cuteness...

P-P-PANCHO!!!!

Here I sit at 6:00 AM just waiting for someone to walk me. I even put my leash on and everything. Don't I look sad? Not really. I look ridiculously good looking. Yes I am. I love you my fans, keep reading!!!

snake attack!

Tonight when I was going out for my last lap around the yard, I was stopped dead in my tracks by a snake. Now the rule of thumb is that you have to take about 18 inches away from the snake when you first see it because it freaks you out! SO in my mind this snake was 10 feet minus eighteen inches. Not really, but my owner and I jumped back about 5 feet when we first saw it.

I didn't know what to do at first. It seemed friendly enough, but then it took a swipe at me. Luckily I am twice as nimble as I am cute, so I was not hurt. But boy did my master freak out. He wouldn't let me go teach it some manners. He kept pulling me away. The worst part of the whole thing is that I still had to go use the restroom when we came back in. I guess I'll just have to hold it until the morning. Oh well, I like my comfy bed. Hopefully I won't dream of waterfalls and rivers and rain. sigh...

Distant Relative

Im not one for promoting other dogs, as I am the most handsome and interesting creature I know, but I will make an exception for my distant cousin from Saskatchewan. Isn't he so cute? I mean not as cute as me obviously, but still in the top ten cutest things youve seen today?

evil squirrels

Lately, these two squirrels have been dropping peanut shells in our yard. They are so rude. I have been barking at them and trying to get them to stop, but every time I start to tell the squirrels to cut it out, one of my owners runs over and shushes me?!? I look at them like, "I'm helping you out here?!?!" As soon as I try again I hear "Pancho, be quiet!!" You'd think that they would appreciate my efforts to keep the yard clean. But no.

When we go outside I have been trying to pick up after these dastard squirrels, eating any peanut shell i see. But, what do you think happens? You guessed it. "No Pancho, put that down. Don't eat THAT?!" I mean it's one thing to keep me from telling the squirrels to stop, but now you won't let me clean up their mess? Geez, my owners are so clueless sometimes. I guess they like the peanut shell mess in their front yard.

I mean look, my job is to protect and serve (and look cute). But, if you won't let me do my job then I am going to have to have to go on puppy-strike and demand better terms. Wait. Let me review my terms. Right now I get all the Eukanuba I can eat. I get fresh water and a warm bed and blanket to snuggle in... Okay, maybe you guys can get away with this once... But just once...
