Bob the Birthday Boy

[Note to Newcomers: Bobdog is Cousin Annie's little boy.]







Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. ~Matthew 5:3

Vote for Bob!

Cousin BobDog is in a cutest pet contest, with doggie treats as the prize.

It's your privilege, your honor, your duty to see to it that Bob gets new nummies and recognition for his lofty cuteness factor.

Go to Little Shop of Terrors [this is not a scary website -- it's a terrier site, and we all know how terrible terriers can be], scroll to the center of the page, and cast your vote for #4 -- BOB. Be sure to click on the thumbnail, so you can see up close and personal just how cute Bob is. You can vote one time per day through the month of June, so put a daily reminder in your day planner. If you go to bed without voting for Bob, it's okay to get back up, restart your computer, and cast your vote. If you don't do that, you just won't get a good night's sleep. I want you to sleep well.

Bob needs treats. He needs to stop eating carpet. He's counting on you. VOTE FOR BOB!

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. ~Mark 12:30

Bob Is Bilingual

I'm really, really sorry, but phenomena such as this must be reported.

Cousin Annie and I were talking this afternoon, and we'll just never let Miss Manners or Emily Post know a thing about this. Somehow the conversation deteriorated to the point that Cousin Annie confided in me that Bob -- remember Bob Dog?...snow bunny...carpet eater -- that Bob now knows the word "ooppay."

"Your dog knows Pig Latin?"

"Yeah! He's German, but he understands it."

Nice normal family

A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken. ~Proverbs 15:13

That BobDog

Cousin Annie got a beautiful, new room-size rug.

Bob loves it.

That BobDog!

One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple. Psalm 27:4

Incoming -- BobDog

Just as Cousin Annie is the only person who'd send me a photo of the bubble-eyeball in her cappuccino, I believe she's the only nut person who would send this photo of her dog, Bob:

Uh, yeah, thanks for the photo of your BobDog, Annie.

Having eventually emerged from the unexpected, snow-filled dip in the ground level, I now understand why Cousin Annie has to rinse Bob in warm water and blow him dry after he plays outdoors.

That Bob!

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. ~Psalm 16:11
