The duck gets around



Guess who we saw yesterday morning?  I am not kidding.  We came around the corner on the trail and there she was - the DUCK with her ducklings.  Again.  Those quackers really get around.  Frodo and I didn't notice them - but my human did - and she stopped dead in her tracks.   The duck saw us - and headed for a ditch.  My human waited and when she couldn't see them, she went to walk quickly by.  I, OF COURSE, picked up their scent and started pulling like MAD.  But my human was able to drag me along - hard to believe she is stronger than the Hulk.  Mind you - the duck wasn't dive bombing us.  My human hurried us along and we went past past a pond - where two of the ducklings had jumped in.  And who came flying in behind them - but the big duck.  She gave out a loud quack - I think it was another warning- but we were already far enough away.  Thank goodness for another "ordinary" moment.

Frodo and I are a bit ticked off with Oprah's dogs.  You know - Oprah the TV celebrity.  It seems she was on a talk show telling the host how her DOGS send her flowers for every holiday and special occasion.  How to make other dogs feel guilty.  Now I suppose my human will be expecting flowers for her birthday in a few months... Do dandelions from the garden count?

And in other  news - the AKC has just added another new breed to the "official" breed list.  It's a dog from Hungary - called a Pumi.  They are another herding breed.  I think they are kind of cute - but I don't think I want one.  No offense to Pumi's but I think I want a BIGGER puppy.  But I still haven't convinced my human.  Yet.

It's Saturday and time to get my human moving.  Wonder where we'll find the duck today...

Have a good one. I know I will.
