[Dailydrool] Snoopy checking in

[Dale Rutz]

Hi all, Snoopy here.
 
First off let me send my condolances to the families of Wally and Louise ... I 
am very sorry for your loss.  Also, I've been slinging lots of healing drool to 
those in need ... momPerson is trying to figure out how to scrape it off the 
ceiling as she finds it less than tasteful ... dunno why.  My momPerson is a bit 
tough to understand at times.
 
Whew, what a weekend.  momPerson went someplace on Sunday and came home tired 
and sweaty and needed a SERIOUS bath.  She said it was something called a 
marathon.  It seems that the humans all get together and run and run and run for 
hours for NO REASON AT ALL.  No squirrels, no rabbits, not even a cat or a dog, 
just humans and they all run … because they’re silly.  No self respecting basset 
hound would do that.  Cyrus might do it for a little bit but even HE would stop 
before 26 miles for crying out loud.
 
Well, if that wasn’t enough as long as momPerson was already funky guess who 
else got invited to take a bath??  OK, ok, so Cyrus is always up for an 
invitation to take a bath and he practically knocked me down getting in there 
but after he got all clean guess who was invited next?  I mean … it’s been about 
10 days since the last time and here we go again.  I’m not too sure how long I’m 
supposed to be polite about this … I snorted this time … and momPerson had to 
put my collar back on and tug a little bit to get me in there.  

 
Well, now we are all squeaky clean and then …. dinner time.  So Cyrus and I ate 
and then we got locked out of the kitchen but I smelled STEAK BONES.  If you can 
believe it momPerson said she was tired so she didn’t want drama so she THREW 
the STEAK BONES AWAY!  Fortunately dadPerson is not too quick and when he tried 
to throw away a banana peal later I grabbed a bone and ran for it.  momPerson 
came after me …. she does not approve of “dumpster diving” as she calls is.  And 
she made me let her take the steak bone out of my mouth.  She still doesn’t seem 
to understand that I am NOT a LABRADOR RETREIVER!!!!  Can someone (anyone) 
PLEASE explain to momPerson that she is lucky to have a hand left????  Well, I 
was most disappointed in my momPerson and so I sulked profusely and she got 
tired of my whimpering and she decided Cyrus and I could each have a bone after 
all.  So we took them outside and ate them.  SILLY momPerson.  She didn't avoid 
drama, she made more.  I don’t think she is very bright.
 
Oh … I have other news.   It seems that our kidPerson has the best method of 
getting me to not bark at other dogs on a dog walk.  On Saturday night momPerson 
refused to walk Cyrus and I because she had her marathon thingy on Sunday 
morning.  So, we sat at her feet and cried our eyes out.  For a long time … and 
finally one of the girls and dadPerson agreed to walk us.  Only momPerson is 
brave (or stupid) enough to walk us both.  So momPerson gave 400 directions and 
instructions which dadPerson and Julianne ignored completely and off we went.  
Most of the instructions where about what to do if we saw another dog … but 
nobody paid any attention.    Well, 100 lb Julianne had me (I weigh 70 lbs) and 
along we walked and along came another dog.  dadPerson took no notice (typical 
dadPerson).   Julianne told me to sit and I sat and Julianne gave me a cookie 
and Cyrus saw the cookie so he sat and Julianne gave him a cookie and so then I 
wanted another cookie cause I was still sitting and she gave me a cookie and 
then we all looked up …. and the other dog was long gone.  momPerson is a very 
complicated person … she should lighten up… don’t you think?
 
More later from Snoopy.
