Earlier this week it rained all day. While I sat at the computer,Chet slipped out into the backyard. He quietly worked on digging a hole to China and had gotten as far as Kazakhstan before I realized he was AWOL. . .
Chet here--under the desk is where I spent a lot of time the day after the digging lapse. "Lapse" is what my namesake, Chet the detective dog in the Chet and Bernie mysteries (really great reads if you haven't heard about them), calls those incidents. Personally, I'd never heard of that word before, but think it would be great for my next Scrabble game. Should be a high scorer based on how much fun that mud wrestling thing was.
Oh, a final thought. You know I think my new Roommate is a gem--lots of treats, walks, loving--but can you believe she turned the water hose on me after taking that first photo? You can bet I hollered loud enough to make the neighbors come out to see if she was killing me! We're friends again though. In fact, when I'm not blogging I sleep on her foot under this same desk.
Ohhh so cute...
ReplyDeleteadorable pup! such a mischief maker!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, what a cutie pie! ha, and it's hard to believe it's the same pup when he's all cleaned up!! cute post :)
ReplyDeletehe really is adorable. irresistable
ReplyDeleteOh, that mud is so much cuter from here than it must be from there! What a great picture. And, the look! Oh, how guilty. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL...it was just a matter of time...I think lots more mischief to come!
ReplyDeleteSo cute...he seems to be very sorry though...I am sure it was a momentary "lapse"!
ReplyDeleteLOL! What a cute boy! He's trying to look so innocent despite being covered in dirt!
ReplyDeleteBless him. So sweet.
ReplyDeleteA fine looking "best friend." Very good series and interesting comment.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you caught Chet before he got any further on his trip to China. He's definitely a cutie, and I'm glad you two are now friends again.
ReplyDeleteThis is a DARLING post! Your puppy is so cute!!!!! I love the name Chet too. Haven't heard of those books, but will look them up!
ReplyDeleteMy husband wants to know if cutie-pie Chet is a pointer? (I had to call him in here to look at your post!)
ReplyDeleteMarie-Chet is a rescue. His mother is a border collie, dad a husky/Australian shepherd mix. I'm not seeing any of those breeds in him. He's very interested in birds and will lift a paw and go into almost a "point". He also listens to them. Right now, at almost 4 months, I'm thinking crocodile. :-)
ReplyDeleteLooks like Chet had a good time mud wrestling! How could anyone get upset looking into those cute puppy dog eyes!! I'm sure he is going to keep you very busy for a very long time!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing. I'm looking forward to more of Chet's adventures,
