Dearest Zig


Today, you gave me the scare of a lifetime when you thought I was on the 4-wheeler and sprinted off after it towards the corner where the highway meets the gravel road. This is the place numerous pups before you came to their demise. I'm so thankful you managed to hear me with your radar ears, screaming your name as I sprinted after you. I don't know how you heard me, but I'm so glad you did. You deserved this dip in the pond afterwards. -your Mom.

Just a couple of sea otters...

This is me and my cousin Maggie, pretending to be sea otters at the lake. Maggie LOVES to fetch tennis balls and I just followed her around.

My apologies

Please accept my apologies for not posting much to my blog lately. It is really, really hot in Kansas. I want to return to Minnesota.

I tried to swim in a "lake" over the weekend and it turned out to not be a lake. It was a lagoon. I enjoyed myself, but mom was mad and she sprayed me down with ice cold water from a garden hoze immediately after wards. It didn't really help get the smell off though. I have had a bath with soap since and am smelling much better now.

Ok. Back to my nap now. -Zig

P.s. I also learned the hard way, what an electric fence does. Yikes! You should take my advice and stay away from them!

Easter trip to the farm


I love going to the farm. LOVE IT! I helped Gramps till some dirt in the garden. He tilled while I sprinted back and forth in it like a crazy dog. If you haven't ever kicked it with some fluffy dirt, you really should try it sometime. The dirt mixed with my damp fur and turned into dreadlocks so we had to take a trip down the road to the pond for a bath. I fetched sticks and washed my hair in the pond simultaneously. Pepper went with, but she didn't get in the water. I can't figure her out. She smells like she needs a bath.

The real fun happened on Sunday. Pepper and I went turkey hunting with mom's nephews for quite awhile. As sun was setting, I heard a roaring sound. I was happy to see my mom racing over the field on a four wheeler. She acted like she didn't know where we were. Geesh. I thought Pepper had told her where we were going, but I guess not. I just followed mom's nephews and Pepper across the field and didn't even think to tell her where we were going. Apparently, it was time to leave the farm so I got to sprint a mile home next to a four wheeler with Pepper, but Pepper couldn't keep up. That was a lot of running!

No worries though, I am back in my city house asleep on my pillow sans the turkey.
