It wasn’t the best adventure for a bit there, too much stop and go stuff in the car, finally I lay down so I wouldn’t hurl my kibble all over the car. Mommy doesn’t like it when I do that. I perked up when we slowed down and we stopped so I could sniff things. I met a group of dogs on their way to a fly ball show. I wished them good luck!
Back in the car we went and I lay down again. I might have slept but I’m not saying. I perked up again when we started going slower. I knew this road! We slowed again and turned a corner. Yup! I knew this road! Two more time we slowed down to take corners. After the last one I started singing I was so excited!
My cousin Kaya (pronounced like kayak without the last K) met me when I got out of the car! I was at Granny’s house! Kaya is a 2 year old Portugeuse Water Dog

and her sister is Tia, a 12 year old miniature schnauzer who Granny and Gandpaw rescued.

Kaya and I played lots of games. I like the Sniff my Butt game myself. But we played “jump” and “wrestle” and “I can drink more water than you”. Ah, good times. We also compared bug bites. I got some on my nose and my bum. Ow.
The nest day Mommy and I went adventuring on our own, leaving Daddy behind. We were back in the car and I might have slept again – but I was up during the night making sure I wasn’t missing anything. When Mommy let me out of the car I saw a bunch of really big squirrels! (Mummy calls them llamas – I don’t know about that). And my Grandma and Grandad were there too! All this because Grandad wanted to take my picture!
Darnit I look good! Picture by Grandad
Me again, still looking good! Picture by Grandad
Here I am practicing for Earth Dog trails. Too bad they only let in terriers. Picture by Grandad.
I made sure to snuffle his ear to say thank you. Grandma didn’t want her ear snuffled, that’s ok, I still love her too. Oh, Mommy did a funny thing. She was giving me my food and opened the travel bowl up on the wrong side and half my food went flying all over the parking lot! I did my best to clean up some of it.
Eventually Mommy and I went back into the car and drove some more. When we got out again there was Granny! We surprised her at work and I got to sniff all the flowers at the plant place! Mommy wouldn’t let me pee on them though. Oh well.
When we got back to the house, Mommy and I had a nap. Oh it was a lovely nap! Then Daddy was home and I had to tell him all about my adventures!
After a long dark sleep, Kaya and I played some more. Mommy and Daddy left me with Granny, which is ok, but I wanted to go with them! They said they could hear me all the way up the hill! Mommy came back smelling like my other cousin Zoe, a 12 year old standard poodle.

I’m not allowed to play with her since I rolled her to the ground last year. Granny and Granpaw took me outside to help them plant their garden. Kaya and Tia didn’t need their harness and leash, but I get one because Grandpaw says I’m a city dog and nobody wants me to go off following the black and white country kitties with the stinky stuff.

Then Mommy came back and we had a nap together! Kaya and I played inside for a bit too, but outside is so much fun, except when it started to rain. Then Daddy came home and I got to nap with him too! I’m their Napping Buddy. It’s an important job you know.
After another long dark sleep we got back in the car and came home. I missed my backyard. It’s not big like Kaya’s but it’s MINE, and that’s important to me. I’m probably going to have to sleep for a few days. THEY call it a vacation. Me? It was work!
Aww, now why did she upload this one? Picture by Mommy.
