The Dog Days of Summer

Well, it's already the middle of August. Speaking of summer (just assume I was), why do humans say "the dog days of summer"?? Is it an insult or a compliment to dogs? Anyone??

So as I was saying, it's the middle of August. On the 15th I was anxious to get my day started. Grandma got up and let me outside for a minute but then she went back to bed!!! Lazy human!!! I kept making noises until papa took me for a walk by himself. At least one human in this household isn't lazy!

And that evening Bailey came over to ask if she could take me for a walk. We had a lovely time. She went back to school the next day so I probably won't be getting as many visits from her. It's too bad... I really love those extra walks and Bailey is so very nice.

Later that evening Amy came by to take me for a walk. She brought her brother and grandfather to see me. They said I was beautiful. But since I had already gone for a 2nd walk, grandma said they couldn't take me again. As if I couldn't make it around the block a third time! Just because you humans have no stamina doesn't mean I don't!
