Ranger's Ramblings

Surviving da Summertime Heat.

Are you HOT?  
When you come into da house after a brief run and patrol of da yard are you HOT?
Me too.

Here's what  I do.

1. Inspect da kitchen floor.   I alway check for any food droppings that might have occurred while I was outside.   
2. Hydrate:  My next stop is my water dish.  I grab me a cool drink of water.
3. Chill da belly:   I find my favorite cool spot and stretch out.    I like da cool slate by my fireplace (which is turned off in da summertime).    

   

   Aweeeeee...... nothing like a cool belly.

4. Conserve Energy and Recharge:   Yep.... I like to take a nap.

   

   Zzzzzzzzzzzzz.................

Dats it.    Stay cool everybuddy and have a grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat weekend!

Pool-time

It is HOT here and I've been beggin' Mom to get my pool out, for like 87 days.    She finally listened to me and broke out my pool.

As soon as she put my pool down I jumped right into it.

Yo..... Mom.... can you put some water in it?

Arrrrroooooooo....   cool water and floaty toys.
I'm lovin dis.

 It was grrrrrrreat until Aunty D snuck up behind me and grabbed my collar.   And den she  sprayed me wiff the water hose.   And den she brought out the oatmeal soap.

OMD.... BATH !!!!!!!

Pool-time will never be da same.

Mom.... you can stop takin my picture now.

I must admit dat it did feel good to cool off and to get a shampoo massage but I'll never let dem know.

Tasty Tuesday Chews

Now I know dat according to the Wacky Holidays, today is National Strawberry Sundae Day, butt I've got something better.

Bring it over here Mom.
I'm all ready (sittin' in my box opening chair)!

It's Chewy day at my house!

I got me a Chewy box, and you know what dat means...... let da pawtying begin!

Sniff, sniff... smells good.

I'm goin' in!

OMD..... it's Dick Van Patten's NATURAL BALANCE Dental Chews.    I got da Pumpkin & Chicken Meal Formula wiff Papaya.     I'm in heaven.

Not only does it smell good, but it's also a TOY.   After I got my teeth on one, I ran all around the living room, dropped it and then grabbed it again and ran around again.   Over and over I played wiff my new chew (making wee little sounds of delight as I played wiff it).   Mom tried to take a video of me in play mode, but I was too fast and all she got was a black blur.

Den I decided dat I needed to bury it so dat Mom wouldn't take dis wonderful toy away from me.

Yep.... where else would you put it?
I buried it in da corner of my bed.

I'd better cover if up wiff my blankie.

After a brief time buried in my bed, I decided that I wanted to check out my new chew again.  

  

So I grabbed it, inspecting it, chomped down and gobbled it up. 

It was PAWSOME (and Mom says it's good for cleaning my teeth and givin' me good breath)!

So..... if you want a dental chew dat is also a really fun digestable Toy, you really need to try these.

Dey help reduce plaque & tarter, are easy to digest, helps freshen breath and has antioxidant nutrients.   I really think dey need to add to da packaging that it is also fun to play wiff and bury (for future teeth cleaning).

I give these chews my highest rating.
