We Interrupt This Blog....

I am interrupting the telling of my life story to tell you some pretty important news in my little life. My parents are going away. They are getting deployed, whatever that means. I was wondering what was up. 

I'm a military dog, so I'm pretty used to this kind of stuff. Last spring, my parents had to go to training and they didn't have enough time to get me a reservation at a hotel (you know-like PetSmart).  So, I went with them on the road and they dropped me off at my aunt Emily's grandma's house. I stayed there for 8 weeks! To be honest, it's pretty neat to learn about new places. I'm pretty flexible as long as people treat me well. And it's kind of exciting to explore new yards and all those smells. I mean, already, my Uncle Eric took me to a place called Loantaka. That place has ducks (not like my duckie toy), turkeys, fish, and walking trails where people bring their dogs! Plus, my grandma needs me. She has squirrels galore in her yard. It's my job to keep them out, out, out!

Sure, everyone is going to miss my parents. Me, first of all. (I can't get away with as much stuff with grandma as I can with my parents. My grandma is making me stop at every street corner and wait for her to tell me it's okay to cross the road. I mean...I just want to run. Let me run! That's what I do!) Anyway, I heard uncle Eric say he will miss my parents too. I mean, the whole family will. 

But...grandma says I will be able to Skype them. And, she also said we can send stuff to them.  Most of the time, when my parents go away, they bring me a present! I wonder what it will be?  I know I'll be okay. I have my grandma and my uncle Eric, my duck and my blankie. Plus, I have my old friend Sherwood, down the block. And pretty much everyone around grandma's house loves me.  But I'm going to miss them a lot and I'm sure they will miss me. 

....Oh...wait...a squirrel...running across grandma's yard...gotta get it...
I'll catch ya later!
