Hi, Every Buddy! Hi hi hi hi hi hi! It's me! It's me! It's me, Franklin the Bordernese!
The sun is still shining here, but it's not hot like it used to be. It's bootiful outside. So I took Mom for a walk yesterday, and I bet I'll take her for another one today.
Mom is very well behaved on our walks. We start with me sitting like this:
Then Mom clips my red lead onto my necklace. My necklace has lots of pretty charms, including a red heart that has my name and address engraved on it, just in case I'm ever misplaced. I'm a high tech dog, too. I have a microchip inside me that tells who I am.
Here are my charms:
I make sure Mom holds the handle on my lead so she doesn't get lost.
Then off we go! Mom says, HEEL, Franklin. That is so ridicurous. I don't have heels.
I usually take Mom to the neighborhood park and around the neighborhood a bit. I'm proud of Mom, and I like walking her so every buddy can see what a good person I have.
Hey, I want to ask Mrs. Shelly about something. Mrs. Shelly! MRS. SHELLY! I know you're over there at La Tejana.
Mrs. Shelly, I wanna get up real close to you to whisper this question, in case it's a secret.
Mrs. Shelley, Mom says you have a new baby at your house. Will you please post a picture of him? We want to see him. I wish I could teach him all the important doggie stuff I know.
Well, I think that's all for now. I need to get some rest. My good friend Willy Dunne Wooters is coming over tomorrow to watch college football with me. We have a real good time together, even though I'm not sure what college football is. It looks kinda like a bunch of guys chasing a very big potato.
Willy Dunne Wooters can do this magic thing that lets him talk to the people on the TV, but he has to shout pretty loud so they can hear him. He especially likes to shout at the coach of his favorite football team. He yells, WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR? YOU DO THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER. YOU'RE WORTHLESS! ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS. THAT IS SO FU
Oh. Mom says to quit while I'm ahead.
I'm gonna take my nap now.
And just in case you wondered, Willy Dunne Wooters loves dogs. He never shouts at us.
Okay I love you all bye bye.
Franklin the Bordernese
The dogs like the walk much more than I do.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind walking now that it's cool and the mosquitoes aren't attacking me.
DeleteDear Franklin, I'm glad to see that you have your human trained. We three felines here in Missouri have our human trained so that's she's first-rate. She feeds us what we like and only what we like, holds us when we demand holding, and never raises her voices when we test her. Go for it! Meow from Ellie, Maggie, and Matthew who pawed this message.
ReplyDeleteHi, Kitties. I don't know any cats personally. Maybe we can be friends.
DeleteLove,
Franklin
You have such pretty charms!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mrs. Mama.
DeletePraise Jesus. I hadn't heard about WDW in a while. I'm glad you like him, Franklin. I leave the house when football is on.
ReplyDeleteWe only have football when Willy Dunne Wooters is here. He's so much fun. We do guy stuff together.
DeleteI think it's great that Franklin takes such good care of you. Who knows what might happen if you wandered off or didn't get walked properly.
ReplyDeleteI need a lot of care. Willy Dunne Wooters says that I am high maintenance.
DeleteFranklin! My name is Tyson, the Australian Blue Heeler, and my mom says she will post a picture of me in her next post. She told the vet I am a pooping machine, which was a little embarrassing, but I laughed because I'm only 7 weeks old. I'm glad you mom behaves on your walks. I've still got to train mine...
ReplyDeleteHi! Hi hi hihihihi, Tyson! It's sure nice to meet you. When it's time to train your mom, maybe I can give you some tips.
DeleteFranklin has you very well trained Janie .... you are obviously his best friend and he is very proud of you !!
ReplyDelete..... and, many thanks for your comment today. XXXX
You're welcome, and I love being Franklin's best friend.
DeleteDear Franklin--I hope your human wasn't too hard to train!! Some of them find it very difficult to catch on to new things. It took me several years to train my husband & he still reverts (occasionally) to the way he acted when he was happy--I mean single. What should I do? He's already allowed on the furniture--should I give him more treats?
ReplyDeleteMom was no problem because The Original Dog had already trained her. Mom lets us have one treat per day. I think more would be a good idea.
DeleteCool dogs here!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteDear Franklin,
ReplyDeleteI'm very jealous because I haven't been able to take my mom on a walk in a long time. She's too busy working on the new house and packing up my home. But she does take me to the new house and I get to explore, and that's kinda fun. And she brings my bed so when I'm done exploring, I get to take a nap.

Hi, Eddie! Naps are a very important part of my life. I'm glad you get to explore and nap.
DeleteI hope when you take your human for a walk you don't make her run us humans don't like to run much, ok some do but they are strange take my word for it they are normal humans don't like to run............lol
ReplyDeleteMom doesn't run. She walks very nicely by my side.
DeleteNice to see you, Franklin! I hope you had a good time with Willy Dunne Wooters and his absolutely worthless TV friends. ;)
ReplyDeleteMom's team beat Willy Dunne Wooters' team. Mom laughed a lot.
