LAZY SATURDAY

Hmmm.. today the forecast calls for an early morning shower of laziness followed by an afternoon with intermittent nap times.

tag tag a wonderful game!

King of the Hill,

Top of the Heap,

Norwood went running,

far away from me.

I whistled,

I yelled,

I ran away too.

He ran fast towards me,

my mind made a gasp,

I thought that he finally,

listened at last

But he ran right past me,

and I swear with a laugh,

He ran by me again,

and I had to think fast.

I reached in my bag

and pulled out some treats,

My hand was full,

of good things to eat.

I reached out to offer it,

as he ran full steam at me.

It worked It worked! and I sighed with relief!

Tag Tag a wonderful game!

Ice, Freezing Rain and Snow

5am wet sloppy snow fell from the sky. I didn't mind. That's why I was built with snow shoes. Then the snow turned to an icy rain. I think it came from the happy three heeler land and blew northeast.  I watched the news.. school after school after school closed. Last year my mommie would stay home when the schools closed. Not this year. Oh wait but yes! My fun Aunt Dee is a teacher. She called and told me she was going to surprise me later!  Fun Aunt Dee took me for a long walk.  In these dark days of winter,  she had me put on my reflector vest and then off to the park.  I thought I looked cute in reflector yellow but I only wear it when it's dark.  Hmm but maybe I did look cute. She laid in the snow to take pictures of me.  She had me pose. She shot my profile.  She had me run back and forth.  She had me flip upside down and all around. I hope I get paid for being a great model! I think she wants me to be a movie star!  Look out Marley!

Back to the Routine

The holidays are over.  The decor is down. Mom is back to work.  I got a call from the vet today with bad news. My sample tested positive for giardia so no day care camp this week.  Just meds and home alone time.  I knew things happened in threes... this was the third.  I will just day dream about my fun at the park.......... I remember.........

  

The park is ALL Mine! and it's time for snow zoomies! 

   

a visit to the vet is not that bad....

We didn't waste time fulfilling a New Year's resolution... staying healthy. Well at least Norwood was the first to fulfill his (my) resolution. 

  Norwood had a visit with the vet for his annual exam and shots.

 

Oh the anticipation... I hear so many noises from behind that door.  Dogs whining, yelping, barking.  People talking.  Who is coming... who? 

 

It is Dr. Scandura.  She seems so nice-of course I must greet her by jumping all over. Norwood finally succumbed to the reason for the visit. Okay okay, I'll get on the table.  Not so bad, it was over soon and I got many treats! 

She said she would check out our new blog too. 

 Thanks VCA Northboro staff for being so good to me each visit!   

We are glad this didn't happen......

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE-the Return of Old Man Winter

Yesterday not only brought in the new year but a return of old man winter.  

That didn't stop us from enjoying the snow!

  

Norwood's terrier personality was out.  

He somehow thought there were rodents under snow/ground.

  

Pounce pounce pounce!  Stomp stomp stomp with paw!

 Dig Dig and then pounce again! It makes him happy who am I to stop him.  

 Oh that's right, it's hard to stop a "terrier" in a kill mode- I don't have a say in it. 

This past year was good to us- it brought Norwood to a new home.  This new year we can only hope is as good.  Happy New year to all our new blog friends!  

Boston Harbor Walk

We headed into South Boston to walk a portion of the Harbor Walk to Castle Island.  The wind gusts were quite strong that Norwood's ears were like kites flying high.  I am glad we didn't blow away!

a preview of spring

OH BOY! The warmer weather has melted the snow from last week.  What's great about MA is that there are tons of trails everywhere. We looked thru our book The Dog Lover's Companion to New England and picked a new place to explore. We went to Weston Reservoir today. A nice flat trail around the reservoir.  It was our first trip.  

 

It looks like we are looking out from prison fencing but the reservoir is protected and the trails run along the fencing.  

    

Norwood was a blur of constant motion.  Between running through mud puddles, eating tasty presents from other dogs, meeting dog after dog and taking sips from streams.. this is my view.. a blur. 

Finally, caught him. Thanks to our new friend Buddy.  Buddy is a rescue dog from KY and a regular here.  They were peas and carrots.  Besides his dad didn't mind the nice tackle greeting Norwood gives humans.  I swear the Packer's defensive line could have used him for blitz option plays.  Now time to scrape the mud off and zzzzzzzzzz nappy time.  

A GOOFBALL HAS MANY JOBS

I am such a good helper.  I went to the grocery store today to help.  First I made sure we were going the right way.  

Next I checked the bags before we left the store. Yep got everything!  

Then I checked the bags when we got inside!  Yep lots of things for me! Opps got caught... look cute for a picture. 

Then I was a blanket for my mommie.  I am tired now.

Thanks fun aunt dee for showing us how to mobile blog from our iPhone:P

Snow Tracks

Norwood had fun in our first major snow storm for this winter. We love the snow!:) Chase the ball.... lose the ball in the snow. Dig the ball out and start all over. We made lots of fun snow tracks. We have 7 inches and more to follow-track the storm here.  More snow heading our way!  Good thing he has long legs for a little guy. Here we are walking along the Assabet River.  He thought about going for a dip, but fortunately stopped.  

  

Time for Play .. oh okay 1, 2, 3 CHEESE

I am really busy playing with my peanut butter kong

Okay... okay.. anything for fun aunt dee and a treat 1..2..3.. cheese. 

 

A COLD SUNDAY MORNING

This morning it was 12 degrees. Quite cold but we still manage to do our 3 mile walk.  Yesterday we came across a little white tail bunny.  It came out of nowhere and norwood ran after it then 30 seconds later the bunny came out of trail running the other way. I laughed. Out smarted by a rabbit again.  

Anyways, on these cold mornings, I like to think warm and think about summer.  Here is Norwood having fun at Hopkinton State Park.  This park is close to the start line of the infamous Boston Marathon. It is a nice woodsy area.  Fun trails, swimming and kayaking available at this park.
