Woof Wednesday

Grampy came home! Then he left!

Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle.

Yeah the big guy came home for a few days and it was great to see him. He didn’t look a day older than — ah —- however old he really is. And he’s old!

Wouldn’t ya know it? He wasn’t home for more than 10 minutes before he found his favorite spot on the couch.

He remembered where the Milk Bones were, but I went and showed him anyway. I tried to tell him that I now get 6 scoops of food but he wasn’t buying it. Hey! You never know unless you try.

“Yeah, six scoops for me and whatever for Baxter. And a steak!”

Saturday night he was all happy when he climbed back onto his nice Tempurpedic mattress…. that is until Baxter and I took up all his legroom. He forgot that we like to snuggle.

Monday he thought he would sleep-in and enjoy his vacation but Baxter and I put a stop to that real quick.

“Hey! It’s 7:45am! We’re starving here!”

He had a nice relaxing day on Monday though. He was laying on the couch watching some silly show on the History Channel. Ah just like old times. Grampy …. laying on the couch watching shows. You know what that means….

I can lick his coffee cup when he gets up! Ahhhhh! I haven’t had any coffee in a long time.

Then today ….. he left! AND HE TOOK GRAMMY!

Grampy has to go back to take care of Baby Liam and last night Grammy took out her suitcase. Baxter gets mad when the suitcase comes out.

Grammy goes down to see the baby every month or so and this time she’s bringing Grampy back with her. Usually Uncle Matt is here but he’s doing that Spring Break thing. I don’t know what he broke but he won’t be back until tomorrow night! Does that mean I’m supposed to cook? They didn’t leave the kibble closet open! What if I have to go out? I mean WHEN I have to out. And go out AGAIN!

The last time they did this our neighbors came over to help. That’s Miss Marlo and Cody and Emma. I like Cody and Emma. They rub my belly a lot. I hope they come over today and play.

So Grampy is back to that Grampnanny thing that he does. That means Grammy will be holding up that FaceTime thing again. She’s always trying to get me to look at Grampy but I just see her holding her phone or that new Portal thing we got. I don’t get it.

Grampy said he’ll be back again in May, whenever that is. I don’t have a calendar. I tried to eat one once. May is when my Aunty Kat graduates from college. I guess that’s a big thing. I just hope there’s snacks. Big things usually mean snacks right?

Until then I remain your ever-hungry-beagle…..Oscar.
