It's A Dog's Life

Friday, September 30, 2005


This is Cagney, Stretch, and Wanda. Lindy is friends with their guardian, Pat. They all four live in Phoenix which I think is in Egypt, or at least close by. In any event it’s far from the US which is where I live.

I sure would like to chase these fine looking felines around for awhile. I’ll bet I could catch at least one of them. Or, at least have a swell time trying. Cats like to be chased. That’s why I do it. Because I am such a nice guy.

If you want me to put a photo of you on my blog, just get your guardian to send one to me at rowanAwilliams@austn.rr.com. I’ll have Lindy get right on it.

Love,

Rowan

Well, all my company has gone home. Samantha left this morning. Obviously, I miss my friends. But, it is nice to have Lindy all to myself again. She took me on a nice long walk this evening. It’s hot out. Lindy likes that, I guess, because she didn’t complain any.

This is a picture of my friend Samantha. She is a cute little bitch, that’s for sure. And, she is nice. She gives me all her treats if I go over and take them from her. Lindy does not like for me to do that but it is clear that Samantha likes for me to and since she is company and everything… I mean, if she wants me to take her treats I have no real choice except to be noble and selfless and take them. Right?


This is a picture of Samantha with my guardian, Lindy. If Lindy has any weakness it is that she loves all the dogs and not just me. Very annoying. But, I know that in the end I will still be here with Lindy after all the other dogs have gone home.

I am hoping that things will get back to normal now. I haven’t been to the lake in awhile, nor have I been much of anywhere else. Not to complain or anything… I just feel that a day out would be in order. I have mentioned it to Lindy and she seemed more receptive than normal so I am hopeful. Wish me luck.

Love,

Rowan

I’ve had house guests all weekend. It’s all because of some gal named Rita, don’t know what that’s about. Anywhooo.

Scarlet has been here for a few days. I was really enjoying having her around too. She’s not as bad as I thought at first. We both love Lindy and that’s basis enough for friendship. I still think Scarlet is a little uppity. But, I imagine she finds me insufferably low-brow so it works out.


This is a photo of Scarlet trying to act all religious. So goody-goody. But, you can tell she's not really praying because, look carefully, eyes open...

On Friday Samantha came over. Her guardian was running away from Rita. Again, I don’t know if Rita is mad with them or if they made her mad or what… But, they came all the way up here. The good news is that Lindy bought extra treats for this occasion!

And very late last night -- Oh, joy of joys! -- my very best friend Buddy showed up and he brought one of the Marion Bobs with him. They were running from Rita too! That Rita must be one mean gal, I’ll tell you what, if Marion Bob is scared of her. But, I was just glad to see Buddy. Even though he didn’t get here until about two o’clock in the morning we still ran and jumped. I know Lindy was really proud of me about that too, especially when me and Buddy jumped on the couch at the same time while she was sitting on it. Lindy loved that. She said she felt like Marlin Perkins on the Wild Kingdom so I know she must have been thrilled. Buddy and I were so happy that we barked in joy to let everyone know how happy we were. Me and Buddy slept in the same room with Marion Bob, and I was in such a good mood I let Scarlet sleep in there too. Samantha slept with Lindy.


This is a photo of Buddy and one of the Marion Bobs I had a great time playing with Buddy. He's such a good jumper, much better than Lindy. Plus, Buddy is just cool. You can tell by looking.

Hope you are having a fun week too.

Love,

Rowan

I went to the bank with Lindy today.
I get treats and she gets money. We both leave happy.

This is a picture of how I look when I am typing. It is, as I’ve said before, hard to type with paws instead of fingers but here I am proving that it canb etrxddddddd done.

Obviously, an athletic pup such as myself, you know, with so much to offer, would rather be out serving my neighbors by chasing away squirrels or cats. But, occasionally I enjoy being more reflective. I like thinking about myself mainly. Thus, whenever I am not out doing whatever I want to do, I like to sit down at the keyboard and write about what all I’ve been doing. Sometimes I write to Buddy, my best friend, about what all I’ve been doing, Sometimes I just blog about myself. In any event, It’s all about me, and that’s the important thing.

Your servant,

Rowan

If you would like for me to notify you when I update my blog just send me an email at rowanAwilliams@austin.rr.com or leave a comment on my blog.

Actually, I don't do it myself. I get my guardian to take care of the minor administrative tasks of life like obtaining food and paying my bills and running my blog. She dosen't mind. But, just email me, and I'll tell her to add you to the list.

Love,

Rowan

This is a picture of me at the lake. You may notice that my fur is still wet. That is because I was swimming. Chasing off the ducks. As the president would say, it's hard work. It's hard. But, when you are a take-charge kind of canine like me. Well, you just do the hard work. I don't want to brag, but I feel that I was the best duck chaser at the lake this afternoon. It made me feel very proud to perform such an important service for the others.

Lindy took me on a great ride in the car today. I love having the wind blow through my big ears


This is a picture of me riding in the car. Isn't it cool that Lindy can drive and take pictures at the same time? Man, she is cool...

I think I look pretty good in this shot, don't you?
