Ditto the Beagle

This morning Mom and Dad tricked me and said we were going to see my new house. Well, we did go see my new house and then they took me to the bad place to meet my new “doctor.” I was so mad. But, the doctor was pretty nice and I didn’t bark at him or anything. He just poked me a little bit and said I was a little fat and that they should feed me less. He doesn’t have a clue what he is talking about.

Then it started raining real hard and it got super cold. So, we came home, and Dad took this picture of me all bundled up on the couch.

This morning I went outside around 6:00 with Dad and the weirdest thing happened. There was this white stuff everywhere! It was falling from the sky and all over the ground. It was super cold but I am tough so I walked right through it. Once I figured out that it didn’t hurt me I decided I liked it. Dad seemed kind of surprised to see the white stuff and made me hurry up and do my business before taking me back inside. Since it was super cold, I didn’t really mind and ran right in and went back under the covers to stay warm.

I wonder if I’ll be seeing this white stuff a lot…

Wow! I have been super busy!

It hasn’t been too bad living in this new place. I don’t like it as much as the old place because I have to take this weird elevator downstairs every time I want out. But, it’s not too small where we live and Mom and Dad say it’s only for a little while. I hate when they leave me home alone, though. I do a pretty good job of scratching up the door trying to get them to come back. Eventually I just go to sleep.

I guess we have a new house we are going to move into soon. That is really exciting to me. They told me it has a huge yard that I can run around in all I want. They keep talking about getting this thing called an Invisible Fence where I will learn not to leave the yard and not have to be on a leash. I don’t get it, but we’ll see.

Mom and Dad said we can’t move into the new house until the end of December. That means we’re stuck here for a little while longer than we hoped, but it sure will be good to get into the new house. Dad put some pictures of it on Webshots. You can click here to see them.

I got to meet Bagel and Max! It was so much fun! We went to this great dog park near where Bagel and Max live. I got their early so I got a lay of the land and was running around like a maniac. There were tons of dogs there and so much grass. It was like dog heaven! Bagel and Max got there and they started looking for food just like I had been. Max kept jumping up on the table trying to eat some food out of a bag. It sure was funny. Then he dug this great hole. I was helping him a little but dad kept making me stop.

I’ll post some pictures of the fun we had over the weekend. Right now we’re starting to get ready for our final drive to Cleveland. It sure will be good to get out of the car.

I am so smart that I figured out how to escape from the back of the car and maneuver myself all the way to the front. I was getting lonely so I really had no choice. Now I stay in the back for a little while and then sneak up when Mom and Dad aren’t paying attention. I go to sleep on Mom’s lap. It is much better than riding in the back.

We’re almost done with our cross country trip. Tomorrow we are going to Chicago and I get to meet Bagel and Max. I can’t wait. Then we are making a surprise visit to Cincinnati where we will see my cousin Murphy and Willy. It sure will be a lot of fun to play with them. And then finally to Cleveland on Friday. Supposedly that is where I will be living from now on.

Ok, today was almost too much for me. First we went to this place called Grand Teton National Park. It was ok, but I spent most of the time in the car. Then we went to this place called Yellowstone National Park. It was real neat and I got to get out of the car a lot. But then something bad happened. We were driving down the road and these HUGE BLACK ANIMALS were walking right next to the car. I hated them. I mean really hated them. I went crazy and tried to get out of the car to attack them and get them away from Mom and Dad. I was afraid they were going to attack us.

I’m really tired now so I need to rest. Dad uploaded some new pictures to Webshots. You can see them by clicking here.
