Guilt gifts


Two more sleeps.  And my human will be home!!!  She sent me a text – letting me know she is having a good time – but she is ready to come home.  She’s visiting with friends – but there’s no place like home.  Especially OUR home.  With three of the best dogs on the PLANET.  OK.  I’m just trying to be good so she brings back good guilt gifts. She sent me a photo from a pet store – which was a bit of a tease.   


She said she WISHES she could buy those cute stuffed toys made for dogs.  But not us dogs.  My human goes so far as to pick up and inspect stuffed toys, then envisions which parts would come off first - and they are returned to the store shelf.  5 minutes or less in our house and the “adorable” stuffed aardvark would be missing a tail.  The fluffy friendly-face fox would be missing his ears AND his nose.  The elephant would be quickly be missing his trunk.  We boys also enjoy performing “internal surgery” by removing stuffing.  The only reason the bunny – from the “find the bunny” game has survived as long as he has, is because he is IMMEDIATELY taken away once the game is over. So our guilt gifts will likely be limited to fetch toys, bones or treats.  Which we will happily accept!

We will have tales to tell when she gets home…we always do.  So far so good though – no emergency calls to our human by the sitter.  That’s always a comfort!

Have a good one!!!
