It's me again - Norm!
That's right - Opie's OUT! You know, like in baseball - he got three
strikes today and Dad said he is OUT! No - not out of here - just in deep
trouble! This is what happened .
This morning, Opie started out the day on the wrong paw - he got into Dad's
ugly green fenced areas where the baby grass is. I got in there too - but I
didn't get caught - Opie got caught TWICE! Dad yelled at him - but Opie
said - "SO!" and went right back in there. Hoagie and Johnny tried to warn
him but he wouldn't listen - he thought it was a great game - until Dad came
to see what all the barking was about - then Dad went into the ugly green
fenced area and chased Opie out - STRIKE ONE! But was Opie good the rest
of the day - Noooo! A little while later, we were all out sniffing around
the big tree - just regular sniffin' - checking out where the squirrels were
burying the black walnuts - stuff like that. Opie decided to start a little
dig going - the rest of said - NO WAY - NOT US! So we went to another tree
- Opie came over there and started another dig. We went to another tree -
here comes Opie again starting another dig. Well, by the time we had
sniffed all the trees, Opie had dug about a nickzillion little holes in the
yard. Yep! - Dad caught him - STRIKE TWO! This afternoon, it got really
interesting. You remember me and my rock?? Well, Opie likes rocks too!
Mom doesn't let us by the rocks anymore but Opie discovered a new source of
rocks - in the cement that holds the fence posts in the ground! You guessed
it - he started digging up a fence post - and boy did he dig - he got a hole
going that went down about 12 inches - Dad measured it! STRIKE THREE!
Tonight Opie is in lockdown - with limited outside privileges under strict
supervision - he is lucky he still has paws to dig with, according to Dad.
Mom just laughs and says "Isn't he cute??" -- She'd better watch out or Dad
might put her in lockdown too - NOT!! She's the alpha B***H - I mean boss!
Drools to ya!
