Day: September 5, 2011

My Woman is trying to get me interested in things other than sleeping. This afternoon she took me outside and made me walk in the meadow with her. I didn’t want to walk. I had other plans.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have decided I like this Mark Twain fellow a lot because he said “I have never taken any exercise except sleeping and resting.” Lately it’s all I’ve been doing so I think I do like this man.

My Woman is getting a little concerned about all my sleeping. I can tell. How? She gripes about it to me all the time, that’s how! “Dakota, get out of the way!” “Dakota, all you do is sleep!” “Would you sleep somewhere else Dakota? I can’t open the front door!” It’s true. My favorite place to sleep is on the big entry mat and I like to put my nose into the door. That’s how I’ll know if burglars are coming. Of course, I won’t be able to wake up fast enough to do anything, but it’s the principal. If I yawn in a burglar’s face, maybe my breath will kill him. Ha! I amuse myself. And dog breath does have a purpose.

I don’t know why I’m so tired. We were having some really hot weather and that made us all sleepy. But the last three days have been much cooler. The heater even came on this morning! My Woman said that meant it was  62 in the house. That’s great dog weather! But still I sleep.

My Woman is threatening to take me to the V-E-T. She thinks I can’t spell. She also thinks I can’t run. Well, I think, too. And I think I’ll show her!

Love, Dakota
