Krazy Katie

Came home from work today and the first thing I do after I enter the house is take our our 2 dogs, Kassie & Katie.  Katie usually goes out first cuz she meets me at the door while Kassie is laid up in the back bedroom :-)  So I put the leash on Katie and we go out and instead of her usual quick pee she decides to take off down the hill with me.  As I'm running and screaming at her just just ignores me like I'm not even there and I think she's gonna get away from me. I have NO idea what the heck she is chasing after because there is NOTHING around us at all.  I'm yelling "STOP KATIE STOP"!!! My neighbors probably thought I was a crazy woman if they heard me. LOL  But she keeps on going and finally about after 30 feet of dragging me I just sit down in the mud because otherwise she's just gonna have me heading and pitching down the hill.  Sitting down is the only way I can stop this train wreck but she keeps going and now my scrubs are all muddy, my favorite Keens are muddy, I've be bumped and contorted into a pretzel, my left elbow is skinned up, my left hip slammed to into the ground and my right ankle & shin skinned.  Ugh!  What the heck was she thinking.  She's only done this to me one other time about  4 years ago.  She's a strong mutt I'll give her that.  Maybe I should hook her up to a dog sled. LOL  I'm getting ready to go on vacation in 10 days and I sure don't want to have to go in a wheelchair.  I've got big plans for this vacation...hehehe  Anyway I was really ticked off at her afterward and she just looks at me like "what mom...I didn't do anything" and gives me that big dopey look she has.  She totally doesn't get that I'm mad at her behavior.  Kassie on the other hand knows and curls up in the corner away from me thinking "I'm steering clear of mom she's sure is mad about something."  I already feel the soreness settling in my joints.  UGH Aleve here I come LOL  But I can't stay mad at a face like that now can I ...hehehe 

Until next time....

Keep Smiling... Sherri :)

My Pup Kassie

Kassie 10-12 Weeks Old

My pup Kassie has some real issues...LOL  We rescued her from one of the local shelters, McKamey Animal Center,  almost 11 years ago. She was a tiny little thing that stole our hearts with 4 white paws and tail tipped in white too. Playful and bouncy and a fast learner too.  We had her house trained in a few weeks.  She learned to stay in the hall bathroom while we were working and wasn't too destructive, unlike her adopted sister Katie. I'll get to her later. Kassie will be 11 this September and while she's a great dog, never messes in the house, never chews up stuff & such, she's got issues.  She can be a bit finicky about her treats.

Kassie's Favorite Position

She will not let you trim her nails and giving her any type of medication is a real ordeal. Changing her flea collar too can be a chore. She just doesn't like to be bothered.   Then their is the "cha ching" issue, yes, cha ching.  If she hears the sound of a cash register she absolutely just is scared and runs to you in a shaking fit. Shivering like you wouldn't believe.  I don't know why she does this but we have a commercial from a local business that uses this sound effect and if I don't mute the TV she has her little fit.  We noticed it when my husband would do his check book on the computer. Every time he made an entry there was the "chi ching" sound effect and Kassie would just go in to this shivering fit. Darnest thing I've ever seen... LOL  

Kassie Rolling

She also doesn't like when my husband works in his daily planner or he works in the kitchen. Not sure where those issues come from but she's run in the laundry room and hide by the back door...hehehe Craziest thing I've ever seen. Kassie loves to roll on her back and her favorite treats are green peppers, vanilla ice cream, & Dingo bones.
