My friend Lucy came to visit last week. She is a golden retreiver and her mom is Bob's sister, Ashley (who is yet another of my admirers). Lucy is much more fun than Bella because sleeping is not her foremost priority. She and I played outside and then we chased each other from one end of the second floor to the other. Every now and then Bella rises from the dead to see what's up, maybe try to steal a toy, and then head back to her bed. It does not make me happy, though, when people visited, and Mommy said to them, "Lucy is the best of the three of them". How about an ounce of loyalty, Mommy??? You don't need to keep it that real.
Mommy left this morning for a business trip to NYC (Mommy thinks she is something special) and word has it that Becca is coming to walk me tomorrow since I am relegated to the cage (which Mommy and Bob affectionally call a kennel, like that makes it better). Bob better hurry home-I have to tinkle.....doing my best to hold it. What are you looking at, Big Bella?

Just call me Dugger
I have not written in a while because my paws have been put to good use in the yard. Mommy and Bob decided they had not reaked enough havoc on the house so they took on the backyard. We had bulldozers (not bulldogs, Bella) level out the yard for the hole that I almost fell into....then they and Mr Joel laid 4 pallets (whatever that is-but they sure acted like heroes) of sod. Then-the new fence was installed. Took about a day for them to cage me in again.
Well Mommy-I cannot be contained that easily. I laid low at first, letting them think that they had won the battle. Just played outside and laid in the sun while Mommy worked from home since I don't need to wander when she is here. Who does she think she is, going to the office from time to time? She always make a joke that she is going out to 'get money for dog food'. WTF. So while she was gone at the office I worked really really hard and dug up the new sod (hehe mommy), crawled under the fence and hit the road. I tried to get Bella to come with me but her girth presented a challenge-so I left her behind. Every dog for himself. You may think I am quite the explorer but in truth, I really just stuck close to home. I went over to Miss Molly's house and sat on her front stoop. Kenzie the puppy saw me through the window and we just looked at each other til Miss Molly's visiting friend went out to his car and found me waiting to be let in. Easy as pie. Chilled in the AC with my girl Kenzie til Mommy came home. Big Bob was not pleased....he put all kinds of ghetto looking 2 by 4s against the fence to prevent me from the great escape. Fools. About 10 minutes after Mommy left the next day, I dug out in another section of the fence, left Bella sleeping on the chair, and headed to Miss Molly's. She saw me, let me in, and I was chillin like a villan with them all day. Sadly, Miss Molly called Mommy and Bob-who did not find this nearly as funny. Now there are bricks where I used to dig, but I have already demonstrated by strength by moving them all over the yard-I may be 12 lbs but I am fierce. However, I knew things had gone wrong when the kennel reappeared in the living room. Now, when Bella and I are without human supervision, I am relegated to the kennel and Bella just watches me from her perch on the upholstered chair. Unreal. I am considering negotiating with Mommy again but just to show her who is boss, when she was on the computer at home, I dug up a flowerbed. Don't mess with Bennie. I will not be ruled, and only contained by choice. Love you Mommy
