Missing

Reward offered for information

Really BIG Reward

My dad has been missing since Monday after our walk. Luckily he fed me breakfast before he went AWOL.
He might have been seen off in South Dakota.
Just remember, the reward is REALLY big.

Oh the weather outside is PERFECT...

My mom just took me for a walk. The snow is light and fluffy, there is no salt on the streets, and it isn't windy and it isn't too cold (especially important for mom).

And...the snow is belly deep. On me that is. I don't think mom would venture outside at all if it was belly deep on her.

Since the snow was light and fluffy, I could just walk through it, and run through like it was nothing.

Oh baby...let the snow keep coming. This was pure labbie fun.

Cousins, cousins and more cousins.

I've met some people cousins, a dog cousin, 2 aunts and an uncle. Last Sunday, we finally found Sis. Remember her? She's the one who wasn't home from Friday night until Sunday. 2 whole nights with no belly rubs. She apparently was with her cousins, Sarah, Emily, Samantha and Alex. And Aunt Margaret. Mom and I went to pick up Sis. So I got to meet Sam, Alex and Margaret and my dog cousin Mia. I even got to go to a new dog park. This one was just packed full of dogs. Big dogs, little dogs, muddy dogs, fun dogs.

Today, other cousins (Sarah and Emily) and Dawn and Gary came to my house. I sniffed, sniffed, gave labby kisses and wagged my tail. I think I sniffed another dog, but apparently they left Jasmine at home. Bummer.

OK. This is not good news.

I've probably mentioned my dog trainer Beth. She has two dog children. One is Ollie. The other is his NOW VERY SICK sister. Lavy has something called Mast Cell Neoplasm, in the second stage. Lavy gets to go visit the vets in Madison.

Take care Lavy - we are all pulling for you!

OK, that's it. I want a new home. NOW.

Well, first off. My mom and dad are just plain old bad. Sis hasn't been home since Friday night. NO ONE EXCEPT ME SEEMS TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS. HELLO - this is not normal behavior for my sis. I need my belly rubs. I need some treats. I need my sis! Well, maybe its not too bad, I did get to sleep in mom and dad's room. Well, maybe mom and dad aren't so bad. We'll see if sis shows up anytime soon.

Now, second off. Mom and Dad left yesterday at 1:15. In the afternoon. They didn't get home until 9:00. OK - I am often home alone for that amount of time. But, did they even think for a minute that I am used to dinner around 5??? No - I had to wait patiently until 9:00 for my dinner. 4 hours later than normal. Don't think I didn't notice.

Now, third off. Mom and Dad apparently saw Papa Ron and Grandma Donna yesterday. Did they think to stop by and see me? That would be a NO. They were even pretty close to my house, and didn't think to stop over. I hope they didn't forget about me.
