My life as a dog



I am dog sitting again for the week. I was making myself a little snack when I realized that my life is alarmingly similar to the dogs I am watching over. Especially Baxter. We both have white hair, we both like laying on the cool kitchen tile, we both often run into the screen door, and we even eat similar meals. Where we differ is he sleeps 20 hours a day and then of course there are our political views.
Today I am thankful that the heat wave is over but I'm a little angry that this is the week it decided to rain. There is nothing worse then the smell of wet dog. Again though the 60 degree weather is welcome. I've been sleeping in the living room the last few nights so that I can keep an eye on the dogs. Usually I keep them in the bedroom so I know they aren't walking around all night chewing on all my things. But it's been too warm so I had the AC on which means I needed the windows closed...which means I'd have to sleep locked in my room with two smelly dogs. Also the dogs like to get up at 6 in the morning and wake me up and wrestle. As soon as I let them outside they commence to bark at the neighbor dog until I let them back in. As soon as they have made certain that I won't be able to fall back asleep they then take a nap for the rest of the day until they can do it all over again the next day.
Until next time...
