I Love Swimming!! - by Bart



Moi, Bart von Weiler

So, Mr. 
Reilly, over at Cowspotdog is having a fun contest!  Because of all the rain and wet weather they've been having at his house, he and his mom decided to do a contest about why you LOVE to get wet or why you HATE to get wet.  All the rules are posted here. The winner will receive a box of his mom's beautiful hand-made cards AND other goodies!!  How could you not enter?!?
==========


Our sister Allie taught us about chasing sticks and bringing them back during our very first summer. We were like nine months old here...

Here are our three Rottie Butts:




Allie didn't really like to be where her feet didn't touch the bottom, but me and Gizmo just took off with the stick!!  Mom would throw it, we'd bring it back, but Allie would always manage to be the one to return it to Mom. I never understood how that worked...

Me and the dufus...


Me getting the stick.  HA!



See, here she is telling us to give her the stick!! 
 She was kind of bossy!!

Anyway, as time has gone on, and we've gotten older, my dork brother has gotten extremely lazy in my opinion.  He likes to stand in the water, but not to exert too much energy.

  Not me. I LOVE to swim!!


This is one of Mom's favorite pictures of yours truly.


Ahhhh, SO refreshing...
Man!  I just love cruisin' in the water!!
How 'bout you??

 lots of
Rottie Kisses

Power of the Paw...

Just maybe an extra dose as we go through our day today...


For all the doggies and kittehs who have gone to the v.e.t. recently, because they are not feeling well and maybe are waiting for lab results or for meds to kick in; and for their human families and grand families whom we think about; and for the senior doggies whom we check in with every day, just because we're wondering how they and their families are doing. For all the people each day that we "keep in our thoughts..."  Just a little extra, today.  For my cousin, Marilynn, who is recovering from a pretty big, scary surgery. Please, let's just send out a little extra Power of the Paw today. We can all use it. 
  
That, and some Rottie Kisses!

BTW, I'm feeling better:


I'll tell you all about my sore neck in a future post!
