Hi Lucky,

My daddy had to go to a funeral in another state and was gone for several days. Rusty and I had to stay home and keep mommy company and boy was she sad. It was the first time in 22 years that they were not together.

I like to sit in daddy's lap while he is on the computer but he says it sure makes it hard for him to type. He won't take us fishing either because poodles are water retrievers and he doesn't like us trying to retrieve his fish for him.

Here is a picture of another poodle that has now gone to that grassy field in heaven to play and wait for mommy to come join her. Her name was Sisu. She was mommy's dog. Daddy rescued me when they knew Sisu wouldn't be around much longer so I could be mommy's dog like Sisu was. But I liked daddy better. We still hear Sisu sometimes at night when she comes to visit and she makes me real scared and I growl at her when she gets up on the bed with my humans. That's just not fair! That's my spot now.

Hi Sisu, Marley here. Here I am sleeping with my big brother Tank in front of our woodstove. It was snowing and my owner didn't want to walk out to get a real camera. So, he took the pic with his phone. We love the woodstove!

Hi Sisu. Have you met my person's kitties Sara and Christopher? She said they went to kittie heaven. Is that anywhere near the grassy field where you are? It sounds nice. I met Christopher. He seemed ok, but I don't think he was too happy about having me move in.

So anyway, I just spent the weekend with my friends Princess and Remy. My person went somewhere I think, but now she's back. Boy was it fun! Today I was really pooped out. Slept all afternoon. That Remy sure has a lot of energy! (He's still a puppy, you know.)

Trixie, you are smarter than most dogs. I cannot abide rain. I once plotted my escape, very intelligently, I might add, but on the day I executed my plan it happened to be raining rather hard.

Right on schedule, I burst through the French doors when they opened a smidgen, but I only got a few steps outside before the disgustingly sticky sensation of water from the sky attacked me. I turned tail and ran back indoors. My plan was foiled.

Trixie, my comrade, may you and I serve as living reminders that "raining cats and dogs" is not as fun as it sounds.

Hi guys! Marley here. Hey, guess what? Today is our birthday. We are 4 today on May Day. Happy May Day to everybody. We are getting special treats later. I heard the humans talking. Boy, I can't wait.

Happy birthday! I guess you guys are pretty close to the same age as me. Ain't life grand?

Your friend, Max

Happy birthday to the pack. You are still a bunch of pups.

Rusty here, I will be 18 years old in a few more weeks but since I was rescued my people don’t know the exact day. I hope you all enjoy your special treats.

Hi Guys!

Mom has been harvesting garlic, and making Jerky and breathing on me an asking what garlic smells better!

All the samples smell good! I can't make a choice!

What have all my OG friends been up too?

What have your mom's and Dad's been letting you guys enjoy from the garden?

I still love cucumbers the best!

Did all my buddies start hanging out somewhere else? Idigmygarden, maybe? Or what?

And nope, I never dig in the wrong spot, but guess what? I did find a bag of driveway patch this morning. Stuff tasted nasty, but I spread it around the shed for mom to walk on and get stuck to her shoes!

Yep! I'm OLD, but still a BAD BOY
