My idol


Well, brother Frodo did it.  Two trials and two passing scores and two BIG ribbons.  He is my idol.  Both judges said they had never judged a PON before.  They told my human they were impressed!  Go figure.  I guess he is smarter than I thought.  But THEN – not only did he get to compete – he got to be on “display” for a thing called “Meet the Breed.”  Now when I found that out, I got really annoyed.  That’s MY thing!  I did that at the last show.  What is Mr. UN-sociable-I-bark-at-every-neighbor doing in such an OBVIOUSLY sociable activity? I’m the social butterfly.





When he and my human got home – both of them wanted to relax for a few minutes.  But not me.  Come ON.  I was home with Bucket Head all day – I wanted to DO something.  I paced. I squeaked.  I repeatedly licked and sniffed Frodo – even after my human said I should stop.  My human wanted to relax for just a FEW minutes.  But I got my way.  She couldn’t stand the pacing.  I got to do MY all time favorite thing.  Retrieving.

Hey. I think we figured out why Paxton gets the soupy poops.  Or I think we did.  Actually, my human figured this one out.  You see, when Paxton goes out on the deck, he is like a vacuum cleaner.  He sucks up EVERY dried, rotting, moldy leaf that has blown on the deck – and any other inedible organic thing he can find.  So now my human has to check the deck when we go out there, pick up every leaf – and make sure the thing is totally clear.  Going to be GREAT fun when we are fully into fall.  THIS I have to watch.

Have a good one! I better go practice some obedience so I can be in the next show.  But then, I'm ALWAYS obedient - right?
