The Charlie Bravo Story

Hey, Charlie…

let's get this straight; I'm expected to scratch your butt while sitting on the toilet (me, not you), take you on motorcycle rides while you rupture my eardrums, sacrifice any semblance of a full night's sleep so that you can change your mind  every 5 seconds concerning sleeping arrangements, lay there and take it for as long as you deem necessary when you decide to go into a licking fit? Right so far, dad; and…

Forgiveness

Predawn at the Casa; it's going to be another scorcher, as the heat and stupidity are already on the rise and the sun hasn't even began to clear the horizon. Dad, Max and I have relocated to the couch as waking mom at this hour carries repercussions that I don't even want to consider. My story seems to travel in cycles, with periods of relative calm followed by spikes of frenetic activity; during one of…

Get out, and stay out!!

The heat at the Casa has been pretty brutal since we returned from Colorado, but it's summertime in Arkansas; what do expect? One benefit to having two potentially infected pups on the premises is that the parental units are keeping us totally seperated, which means that Mia and I have been staying in the kitchen during the day. The A/C is great, but I would much rather be outside  where I can keep an eye…

You can’t fake good kids…

When do dogs quit being pups, or kids become adults, for that matter? Hopefully never, as far as I'm concerned. Friday morning at the Casa starts like most others, with Mia, Max and I "showing out", wallering, thrashing, pouncing, flouncing, shovel-heading, all in an attempt to get dad's attention. Even though we're "adult" dogs (yeah, right), we never lose the desire to relax in the presence of someone who we perceive as being a bit…

When the cat’s away…

We're taking full advantage of mom's last night away and making complete nuisances of ourselves; first me, then Mia, then Max, taking turns standing on dad until he uses The Voice, then we rotate. This is how we guarantee that he never gets anything done, for which we will accept absolutely zero blame for the condition of the Casa when mom returns to the carnage. A while back, we encountered a homeless man and his…

Update from the Casa…

Dad here; they say that there's no rest for the wicked, I just didn't know I was this wicked. Usually Sunday morning at the Casa is a time to slow down and reflect just a bit, usually while observing the hummingbirds completely decimate the sugar supply, but today is not that day. When I found the latest rescues Friday afternoon(Miss Tara is calling them Ricky and Lucy, someone else suggested Sonny and Cher), I noticed…

Oh lordy…

Dad here; one of my favorite stories is actually told by an older friend of mine, I'll just call him "Jim", as that's actually his name. To describe Jim as eclectic would be a massive understatement, in addition to being a master craftsman, he's also an aspiring herpetolgist; his wife Barbara is, shall we say, considerably less enthusiastic with Jim's reptilian interests. They live out in the country, and somehow a harmless king snake got…
