Unhappy Crate Camper...

Since my humans abandoned me & went on vacation a while back...I have continued to express my displeasure at being confined in my crate...even for short periods of time.... I am very vocal about my feelings.  And am not above the occasional temper tantrum...tossing my water bottle off the side of the crate, scratching & pawing at the sides...well..you get the picture.

So, Benson's Mom made a brilliant suggestion & Dad is busy installing a gate...so I can still be safe in the kitchen...with my crate door open (since I do enjoy spending time in there...at my discretion). but not have access to furniture, electrical cords...things of that nature that I have proven to have an affection for.

I love my bedtime crate..it's within mere footsteps of the human bed...so I'm okay with settling in at night.  I think (and hope) I will be much happier having access to a bigger space...and who knows...maybe someday the peeps will trust me alone in the rest of the house.  But that's a big maybe....

So, my peeps arrived back in Snowy-ville & heard glowing reports of my perfect behaviour while they were away (except for the occasional temper tantrum & kicking my water dish around in my crate).  I let them know, in no uncertain terms...(the occasional poop on the floor) that abandoning me to vacay in the sunny south will not be tolerated.

Seems now that we have set that straight...I am back in charge & things are running again smoothly.  I partook in a lovely spa-di-cure yesterday..and took some much needed time to model my new fleece wrap the paw-rents purchased to placate me...along with a squirrel shaped cookie...(which was delicious btw)..as you can see we have some of the dreaded "white stuff" everywhere.  The result of four back to back snow storms...I must say I am enjoying the warmth of my new wrap..

So, Mama wants to share of couple of cool places she visited...one

 being this cool doggie bakery & grooming salon...how cool a shop is this??

And we don't have anything like this where I live...but 

how neat would it be to have your spadicure come to you?

And for your delicious viewing pleasure...a couple of the treats from Woofgang Bakery & Grooming

See the squirrel shaped cookie?  That is my favourite!!  

Why I Been MIA!!

So it appears the peeps decided to go on "vacation"...to F-L-O-R-I-D-A...and left me behind in white hell. I have endured freezing temps and been forced to poop outdoors in a blizzard.  All the while the humans are having g fun in the sun in 82 degrees!!!
Can you believe such parents claim to adore me??  Pfft!  I am beyond giving stink eye..although I am good at it...
Can't wait til they get home and I can give them a piece of my mind.  Hmmph!
Be warned. .this could get ugly...
