Teatowels

Oh Mugsy

I think you had a very near miss - Mummy's who have been slaving in the kitchen are always in a bad mood and when their work comes to nothing it is always worst especially if they have to clean the mess up as well !!!! - you did right to look pathetic and to sleep in - i am sure you have been forgiven - but you have to forget the tea towel - it is to risky - find something else - thats safer.

the other thing - and i am sure your Mummy and Puppaw and have made it clear - they love too much to send you back to the pound - you are part of the family - you are even on their blog- Mummy was showing me wedding pictures last night - you look so pretty - but the dog house is a risk  - i haven't actually been there yet - it has just been threatened but it sounds JUST HORRIBLE - and i don't want to go there - YOU DON'T EITHER so find a different ATTENTION SEEKING SYSTEM a hint - HOWLING DOESN'T WORK look at me

Yesterday was better - not perfect but better - i learnt some good stuff - although Mummy's and Puppaws insist on being above us in Pack order - Granny's and Grandpaws are happy to be below us - that is worth knowing - had a great day with them - they love us just as we are - we can do no wrong - arrived had snuggles, cuddles and play, lots of attention, treats, just as it should be, i was a princess again, had a play date, not put on the ground when i guarding Granny's lap (pretty sure Mummy disaproved - but she wasn't there so i got away with it - hahaha!!!)  i wasn't go to share, had lunch which i ate!!!!, walkies with Grandpa, no threats, when my legs went on strike, just got picked up (all as i expect!!!!), nice nap with Granny and woke up to find Mummy arriving.  She gave me a nice welcome, we had snuggles on Granny's bed, with Granny and Grandpaw and then a trip to park before dinner (which disapeared before i got round to eating it - which was a blow) playtime and bed.

this morning, i managed to get breakfast - yippee no hunger, and i remembered what wait and come meant so not one mention of manners poppy!!!!! yippee, i ignored Mummy at Granny's she has said i can come up as soon as i get there, they prepare for my arrival the night before (she told me and showed me yesterday - silly Granny!!!!!) and i was gone before she could say Manners - and she couldn't shout because she might wake people up - i've got this sussed!!!!- now having a great snuggle time and looking forward to another perfect day of being a princess.

hope you have a great day
love and licks - will try to think of the best attention grabbing behaviour in the apartment for you (not including teatowel grabbing)

This Weekend

Dear Mugsy

Treat Tart - its the only way to be - the two legs say its bad - but its only worth obeying commands for bribes -you have to teach PawPa that - keep at it - cuddles are great - they are free and can be given either way just for snuggles - treats are for performances and behaving !!!!!!

Granny doesn't do running - she sits on the floor and pouts until you go to her - but then she lets you climb all over her - and she lets kiss her - sometimes even on the face - but not the lips

wow - i thought 40 lbs was a lot - 200 lbs would squash even you - keep on you legs at all costs - but shes  got to be good for chasing and its not like she can hide from you - and what great protection - and if two legs are being a nuisance - great revenge

don't complain about multiple names - its such a good excuse for ignoring calls - if you don't know when to respond - they can't complain when you don't - i get told off for bouts of deafness - apparently i am going through teenagerdom - but you can just assume they are calling someone else -

i love being in the kitchen with my two legs - and by the way - some nice stuff gets dropped on the floor - never got hold of the dish cloth though might have to try it- sometimes get the stuff from the washing machine - thats doesn't go down to well - nor does licking the dishes in the dishwasher - but if you don't get caught - you get some good tasties - just be sneakie - you are at a better height than me for that  -

lots of love and licks

This Weekend

Dear Cousin Poppy,
I too had a great weekend. The two legs still call me Lucy now and again. I wish I new why. Then they wonder why sometimes when they call me Mugsy I forget to come. How many names can one dog have?? I had many trips to the dog park and ran myself ragged. I played with a Mastiff named Pickles. She was sweet and I liked to run around him. I smiled a lot and showed him my teeth, but deep down I was mortified that he would sit on me and crush me! I heard Pickle's two legs tell my two legs that he weighs 200lbs!
The women two legs game me lots of treats and bones. I hear the man two legs telling her that she is turning me into a treat whore and sometimes he says that she is going to make me a gordita. Both of those sound good to me. But he is stingy with the treats and sometimes only pats my head when I do what he says. I try to show him the error of his ways by going lots of tricks for the woman two legs, but it just isn't clicking with him.
I tried to help the woman two lets in the kitchen this weekend. She spends so much time there and it smells so good, I thought I would join her. 
She didn't even yell at me when I got the dish rag to help her clean up. I'm very confused about that. But I was so happy that I fell asleep.
I can't wait to get lots of love from Granny She will have to catch me first. Does she run fast?
Love,
Mugsy
