Happy Boxing Day!

We're not English, but I was too busy yesterday to post. Hope everyone had a happy holiday. Here's a picture of me waiting to open my gifts:

Then Bisket came along...

and he finally sat under the tree with me.
Cousin Morgan is here for a Christmas visit, and we went to the trail

Santa brought me some toys and lots of cookies. It was a fun day!

My favorite four letter word

S-N-O-W! Yeah!

Hunting Season

Today's the first day of deer season in Pennsylvania. I can hear gunshots from my house, and even though there's a lot of lab in me, I'm gun shy. I'll be on the couch if you want me.

This is so embarassing....

Last night Mom decided to take me out on the leash because she smelled skunk. I don't know why she won't let me chase him out of the yard like I do the mailman, but people are funny. Anyway, she hooked the leash to my collar, and then decided to get a flash light. In the meantime, Bisket came along, and well...

...this happened. I'm being walked by a cat! The leash dragging on the floor was just too much for him to ignore, so he pounced. I tried to get away, but that made him even more determined to hold on to the leash. I finally just gave up and sat down until Mom came. I hope she doesn't decide to let him take me out. I'll be the laughing stock of the neighborhood...

Sunday nap

So, I settled down yesterday afternoon for a nap, and guess who decided to join me?

Annie. (That's her back end in the picture). Mom thought we were cute, and decided to take our picture.

That put an end to the nap. How do you sleep with cat butt in your nose and camera flashes in your eyes?

Mom saw this on the Today Show this morning...

We love puppies!

Hello

Hi, it's me, Rocky! I'm a black lab-collie mix, originally from Altoona, PA., I think. I'm a former shelter dog, and now I live in rural Central Pennsylvania with my Mom and kitty brother (Bisket) and kitty sister (Annie). Here are some pictures of us:

This is me:

Aren't I handsome? And this is Annie and Bisket:


Bisket's the yellow cat, and he's from the shelter, too. He's only been here a month, and Annie's not too crazy about him, but she's getting better. She still doesn't like it when he plays with her toys. This picture was taken after she caught him playing with her racetrack ball thingy. Believe me, she doesn't like it when you mess with her stuff. I like Bisket, though. He plays with my things sometimes, and I don't mind.

I live a kind of boring life--I sleep on the couch, go for walks on the local bike trail, and visit my doggy and human friends. I'm very friendly--I pretty much like everyone. I hope you'll like me, too!
