Hi everybody! Kiri the blogging Lab here, trying to make up for Mom's snafu earlier today (posting something, then deleting it, then expecting me to post a retraction, getting all my loyal readers excited at seeing a post from me, only to realize it really says absolutely nothing....).

Anyway, I figured I'd try to make things better by posting some pictures from our walk this afternoon at our favorite dog-and-thing walking spot. (We missed you, Auntie Christine! Maybe next time!) Things are getting dicey out there, with hunting season underway (oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy....) so the area's not available for us family dogs much this time of year. So this might be our last chance to use it for awhile. But there was nobody there today to speak of, so we basically had the place to ourselves.

Here's Thing 1 (in the front), Thing 2 (near me), and me arriving in all our glory:

That place smells GREAT right now -- bird scent EVERYWHERE! I couldn't help myself while walking through the fields, I had to keep slamming on the breaks and sticking my nose in the direction of those birds! Mom says I was "pointing" and that this is a field she used to hunt in with sisters I never knew. I sure wish she brought a gun with her today, we could have had some good eatin' tonight....


Eventually we got out of the fields and I was able to work off some energy in the river:


And as luck would have it, the Things found me a tennis ball and we played fetch all the way back to our car. It was so good it almost distracted me from the birds. (But not quite.)


Ahhhh....what a day! Just me and my things. Oh, and Mom. You know, we could probably do just fine without her, except none of us can drive. So I guess we'll keep bringing her with us.

See ya!

please ignore!

Hoo boy. Please ignore that last post (which Mom has since deleted, so maybe you never saw it) -- she accidentally posted an entry on MY blog (she has a nerve!) that she meant to post on the Big White Dog Blog. I knew allowing her access to my account was just asking for trouble....

Please return to your normal daily programing, all is cool here. (Literally -- it's sorta nippy out there in the mornings, isn't it?!)
