Officially Unofficial Campaing

Hi there....it's me....Murphy!    And today I would like to announce that I will be running.  And not around the dog park or tennis court.  It's official.  Not like my Facebook page unofficial, but it's official that I will be in the race for the big white house that sits on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue! 

Why not?  I live outside of Washington DC.  JK Moving&Storage wouldn't have far to travel to move me and my humans in the big white house that sits on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue!   I just gave you a plug JK Moving&Storage. 

Why not?  I'm certainly very pretty.  I'm smart.  I'm funny and I'm happy twenty four hours of the day....even when I'm sleeping.   You won't find me just opening up my mouth for no reason!   Catching tennis balls is what it's all about!   Barking for no reason - not me.   Wagging my tail without a purpose - not me.  Going in the car for no reason - not me. 
I'm driven by duck liver and the love from my humans.  I'm a good friend to my fellow canines.  I'm working on the cat population, but I'm worried that Sassy Cat will send video to YOUTUBE just to sabotage my hard work.    Like the time when I .....   never mind.

I promise you if I am elected President of the United States Dog World there will be free treats for a lifetime!   No more having to sit and beg or look cute!   Treats are up for grabs!   There will be treat bowls located next to every fire hydrant!    I promise to recreate the dog park!   Plenty of fresh grass with mud pits for those of us who love to get dirty.  Watering holes to jump in and cherry blossom trees lined up for the males who need something to aim at.   I promise to unleash the law where all dogs are free to swim in the Tidal Basin.  Small dogs on the left - big dogs on the right. 
No reflecting pool or fountain will be off limits!   
Food vendors will not stop you from grab-n-go-help-thyself pleasures.  

I promise if I am elected President of the United States Dog World, those who treat us with disrespect and harm will have a lifetime of picking up poop.  All types...ewww!   We will be a strong country pack that supports all  kind.  Shaggy or hairless.  All dogs matter!   And cats.   The police who guard 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue will be replaced by handsome German Shepherds.  Sorry, Rotties and Dobies...I have another assignment for you.   The front lawn of the big white house will no longer have iron gates and barbed wire.  The Presidential garden is all yours!  

If I'm elected President of the United States Dog World, I will lift the ban on curbing.  When ya' gotta go...ya' gotta go humans!   Humans who leave unwanted food on the sidewalk will be fined a year supply of tennis balls to the Humane Society.   But we thank them for the unwanted food later. 
There will be special events held for service dogs and my contributions will go towards their needs. 
There will be red carpet treatment for service dogs.  Every Uber driver, taxi, bus, metro and soccer-mom minivan will transport a service dog and their human when in need.   I raise my paw to all service dogs.  

Humans.  This looks to me like it's going to be a very long messy and boring election.  Scary too!
So why look any further.  I already have the lead with the canines....where do I stand with you?!
Cats?  please. 

It looks as if my sister Ellie Roo may be my running mate! 

So....do I have your vote?

Meet Speyburn ~ featured pet friend

Meet Speyburn.   Speyburn is a Gordon Setter.  He's named for the river Spey in Scotland and also the Scotch Whiskey!   Speyburn was born on December 7th ~ Pearl Harbor Day! 

This is Speyburn with his human, I'll call him.....Mr. Mountain.   Mr. Mountain loves being outdoors, especially with his wonderful dog Speyburn.   They love hunting together, fishing and just being outdoors by any body of water!

Speyburn earned his Canine Good Citizenship and is a registered therapy dog visiting Hospice patients.   I'm sure Speyburn gives a lot of love and support to those in need.   Way to go Speyburn!

Here is Speyburn in the field.

Speyburn carries the AKC Obedience title.   Mr. Mountain says Speyburn is a fantastic bird dog!   I wonder if the birds and ducks squawk and honk at him like they do when I'm spied at the nature preserve?    BOL!

Some day I must hang out with Speyburn and learn how to be a great therapy dog, just like he is!

Speyburn has a big brother a very big brother named Teagan who is a Great Dane!

Keep up the great therapy work Speyburn!   And enjoy your time hunting those birds with your human....Mr. Mountain!    

Here is a little trivia for you;  Did you know that the Duke of Gordon is credited for this breed?

The Gordon Setter!

Happy puppy = Happy life

Hi there!   It's me......Murphy....but you already know that!

I've been so busy these past few months, Pack Leader said my social calendar keeps her looking her best.  That means she's in  boring yoga pants, t-shirts and has bad hair!    BOL!

My days are filled with puppy social hours, puppy playdates and obedience training which includes lots of practice times!    Pack Leader takes me to these special places where humans sit around and chat and sip from bowls they must hold with their fingers.   I believe these special bowls are called coffee cups.   These places where we may visit offer us dogs bigger bowls filled with fresh water.   One special place where humans sit around and sip from fancy shmancy bowls offers us dogs organic treats made with duck liver!   Pack Leader likes this place better than Starbarks because they give pups a puppacinno and it's not as healthy for my tummy.   I must admit, I can't pass up duck liver!  

My friend Monster Mash and I go run together a lot in the mornings.  Monster has his very own backpack that he carries, and he looks so important!   I sometimes think he looks like the mailman or a paramedic!   My humans told me that I'm getting my very own backpack too!   Woo-hoo...then Monster and me will be twins!   I can carry my own water bottle and tennis balls!   And empty poop bags. 

Monster and me.   We have serious conversations...like how many laps around the tennis court does it take before we have to poop!    BOL!

My Forever Human created some graffiti on our sidewalk.   Everyone knows that Monster and me go together like peas and carrots!   Our community knows us very well!   We make people smile and laugh.  

My Auntie LeeAnn made this bunting for my room.  Isn't it pawsome!   

I've been swimming too!   I go to Old Town Pet Resort to practice my laps.   Learning boat etiquette is important too!     Get ready Marley and Cooper....I'm ready for some swimming with you big boys!

Sometimes I just like to hang out with my friends from Canada.   Well, I like hanging out watching them....but they don't always like me around.   I don't understand what all the honking is about!   But one thing for sure is the family leader is very loud and very bossy so we don't hang around too long.    Sometimes when we walk to the boardwalk nature preserve we see turtles.   Big turtles and baby ones too.   As you can see....I'm very patient.  

In obedience class, I am learning to have willpower!   Learning to leave those delicious liver & cranberry snaps on the floor or in the palm of someone's hand takes great strength!   Because I LOVE my liver & cranberry snaps!!    I really like working with Forever Human in the mornings.   She calls it "brain exercises".   I love having more time in the mornings with her!    I can't get enough of my little human!   That's why she's my Forever Human.   

Just. Love. Her.

My life is full of happiness!   I guess you could say I'm one very happy puppy.  I have a lot of friends and I can't wait to go on more adventures!   Pretty soon my family and me are going to the beach for a special Golden Retriever weekend.   Some of my Golden Glory family will be there too!   I can't wait to see Momma Arlene again!!   

Until next time,

Woofs!
