Midweek Trip

Mom and I went to visit my cousin Wilson on Wednesday and Thursday of this week. We had not gone to see him in over a year - except for Christmas Day.

Mom and my Aunt Laura had a great time, I guess. They kept leaving me and Wilson to take care of the house. Of course Wilson just fell asleep and left me to stand watch on my own.Those silly Retrievers get tired from all that ball chasing!

He and I get along ok. We both like to bark a lot! He barks to get mom to throw the ball, and I bark to try to keep him in the herd.

Gotta zoom!

Oh Ricky, you're looking a little peeved in that photo. Good to let your mom know that you're not happy about being left behind while she goes out gallivanting. Guilt will get her every time!

Poor Ricky - there you were left all alone looking after the house and Wilson. That is a tough and worrying job for a little guy.

My grandpawents think us shelties teach other dogs to bark.

Hard to keep track of everybody when they're coming and going. Katie likes everyone to be in the same room. All the time. You'll have to work on your Mom till she gets that concept. Sometimes humans are a bit slow to learn stuff. Wilson looks great, glad you got to spend some time with your cousin!

I'm glad you had a barking pal, my shelties are fond of saying the more barking the merrier! But boy it does sound rough having to stay behind watching the house AND Wilson, after all it is a vacation! Glad you got to go with your mom though!

It sounds like you had fun, but it sure doesn't look like it! You look downright miserable, Ricky!! :)

Hi Wilson

Bowsers, Ricky sure looks sad. We think he is wishing he was outside running.
