*Note From Sloan's Mommy*

Hello, this is Sloan's Mommy.

I'm sorry to tell you that Sloan won't be leaving a post tonight, 

as she's been quite bad today and is now pouting.

Our walk today wasn't optimal, as there were hunters in the forest so I had both dogs on lead.

This apparently led to Sloan and Max deciding to bark, lunge, and knock me off my feet each time we saw another human and dog.

Upon arriving home, both dogs needed baths, and Sloan was rather uncooperative.

She has had her internet privileges taken away for the evening.

Please stop by tomorrow, which I'm hoping will be a better day for all of us.

Happy New Year, from Sloan's family.

WHAT. IS. THIS.

Excuse me.

I need to go take care of this.

We're too fast

We've got to move fast

when we're out at dusk.

You never know

when the nightcritters

are coming out.

Have to have all regular patrolling done first,

so I can concentrate on the chasing.

I don't feel so good...

My tummy hurts sometimes.

Mommy says I have an Irritable... bowl?

Right now is one of those sometimes.  

My mommy is 

rubbing my back,

and tucking me in,

and being real nice,

but I feel yucky.

Merry Christmas!

May all your beef hides be delicious

this holiday season!

Everything From the Doorknobs Down

My mommy says

that she bought this chair

for me. 

Well, duh.

Everything in this house 

is mine.

HAPPY DAY!

Today we went to my most favoritest place in the world, 

Brimham Rocks. 

I know all the roads that go there.

I get to run around

play fetch

sniff the smells

chase the rabbits

chase the birds

climb the rocks

bash through the ferns and heather

and have so much fun.

Plus today we saw some dogs I know. 

That was fun, too.

I LOVE BRIMHAM!!!!!

OH MY DOG

there is a

TREE

IN

THE HOUSE.

Pretending to be Human

Yeah.  This is how ridiculous you humans look.

I was really cold, and apparently my mommy thought that the embarrassment of wearing this hat would warm me up.

Seriously.

Stupid Cows.

so today my mommy took me out on a walk and it was great and we played and walked all the way around the reservoir and then on the way home I was sniffing and having fun and climbing over the walls and it was great and then

I got stuck.

the stupid cows made their field smell so interesting with all their muck and poo and food and it was so mucky and 

I couldn't moooooooooooooove.

So my mommy rescued me and got me out and then we came home and now even though I'm free and I smell so good and I was gonna let brother smell all the good smells on me and everything and I was even going to share the muck 

I have to have a bath.

This is Why.

Mia that cat gets into all sorts of things.

Especially food.

I get yelled at for telling her to stop.

But she's STEALING THE DONUTS.

Yeah, We're Kind of Important Pooches

It's a tough job, being this ridiculously good looking.

But hey, someone's gotta do it. 

Oh, Wait...

You mean you don't get to play fetch

in front of 800+ year old castle ruins?

Oh... now I feel like you might think I'm bragging...

but yeah. 

 My life rocks.

Today and Yesterday

I got to spend with my Daddy. 

It was great.

I love hanging out with him,

even when that means laying across his legs

on the couch. 

He's super.
