[Dailydrool] Cowboy Up! (sorry kinda long)

[kacy green]

Well we had a unique walking experience tonight. It's getting dark early now
so the boys have only been getting about half of their daily walks, (eek I
know bad momma but what can I say?) Anyway tonight they were able to lure me
out with that sad pitiful look of theirs. We put on collars and leashes and
I remembered (for once) to bring a flashlight. Maybe thats what spurred the
confidence but...well I'll let Cowboy tell his side.....

Ok its the CowMAN here, yep, you read that right. Cow-MAN. Let me tell you
how it all went down. But first a little background. We walk the block on a
regl'r basis. Its generally a mosey, you know, stop, sniff, keep sniffing.
Basically sniff until Mom tugs us along. Then there's this one house, its
spooky. There is a ginormous mean snarling dog behind a fence. IT barks at
us everytime we pass and IT is mean and snarly and scary. IT rams the fence
and trust me, this is a weak fence. I'm sure IT could get us if IT tried
hard enough. And did I mention IT's a snarly mean dog? This mean Snarly
Snarl's house be on a corner. And usually one would have to bend the corner
and walk past Snarly's fence where he be waitin. Not us. Nope we always pull
Momma at the corner and make her cross the street so we not have to walk
past Meany Meanerson's fence. Well anyway, tonight I decided it was time to
Cowboy Up. I'm comin up here on my 2nd Gotcha Day and the slaves have been
thinkin that I may actually be older than ol Rotten Rupert so you know I
decided it was time.

We gonna take a walk tonight and we gonna do it my way! We go a walkin out
the door. Rupert not onto me yet so he be mosey'n, you know the usual. Well
not me, no Siree Bob. (Hi Bob!) I be on a mission. A mission to take my
block back! I'm a trottin from the beginning of our walk. Momslave be
wonderin "hmmm why Cowboy have such a skip in his step?". Rupert be thunkin
"dang Cowboy, slow down. I keep gettin my neck jerked when I stop to sniff!"


We round the corner. We approach Meany's house. Rupert start towards the
street, you know, to cross it. Well not me. I turn that corner with my head
held high. Mom thinking, "hmmm". Rupert kinda scared but he gots no choice.
We be headin toward the fence. We start passin it. I hear a snarl snarl
snarl. I stop and stare, I pee on the fence, with my head still high,
thankyouverymuch. Rupert kinda skip past but me? Well I take my time. Snarly
Meany Face is breathing pretty fierce but I stand my ground and finish
marking the fence. Then Meany lets out one teeeny tiny eeensy weeensy
"ruff". It was practicaly under his breath he was so scared. OF ME!

I skip off. Rupert skips off. We happy. We conquered the hood. I Cowboy'd
up.

Mom here. I can attest to everyting he said. Cowboy was not scared one bit.
Both boys trotted home at a steady pace, scarfed down on dinner and are now
happily passed out having conquered the block for the evening. And me, well
I'm just a proud momma here tonight realizing that my boys are growing up.
:)

Love and drool to all, and to all a goodnight.
Kacy Cowboy and Rupert
