My Time

My People,

Mom says I am 14.
That really means little to me.
I have a very hard time getting up.
Mom is always after me to eat.
I hurt a lot sometimes.
Mom says I keep biting her.
I don't mean to.

Mom keeps singing:
"Do your hips hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Do your hips hang low?

Now that is just mean people!
But Mom is Mom.

Mom says it is my time.
Don't worry my people.
I am fine waiting at heavens gate for each of you.
I will greet you with love in my finest German Sheppard splendor.
Don't worry. Dad will be OK.
And Mom is Mom.
I love you, my people.

My People,

I thought I would say "Hi." 

I knew you would want to celebrate my birthday. 

I am twelve. 

Old in doggie years. 

Life is good. I stay busy. 

Dad has been forever trying to get me to retire from barking and digging, 

But I still do the important doggie work. 

It does take me a little longer to stand up these days, 

But I still can get up faster than Mom can. 

Love you, My People. 

Lazy Baby J

My Bro sent this picture to Mom 

Showing Baby J on the rug 

in the cool house 

Keeping a watch out for problems in the neighborhood. 

Her keen Doggie nose is working for her family. 

Bro said J was being lazy. 

I say J is multi-tasking. 

Very doggie smart if you ask me. 

Retire?

Dad says I am an old enough Doggie to retire. 

He wants me to retire from 

"Barking" 

And maybe 

"Digging". 

These are important Doggie jobs. 

I am just not sure about this. 

What do you people think? 

Grand pup..

Mom says we have a new grand pup, Freya.
She lives with my oldest brother and my favorite girl friend, Libby. Libby sends pictures of Freya. Mom is going to have to figure out how to get them off her phone so she can show you the adorable and young Freya. 

My Grand Pup!

Hi Everyone, 

It's me Edelweiss. 

Look at my Grand Pup. 

She is a find Canine. 

I know you agree. 

Love you all. 

Barking

Yes 

Mom made me come in 

because i was barking. 

She does not understand. 

Barking is important doggie work!
