Not An Acceptable Plaything

I found a dead baby possum in the back yard the other night. Mom and Dad were out, Cosette and Little Guy were in their crates, and I was bored. So, I brought it in. Once I had it in the house though, I didn't really want to play with it anymore.

My Mom was kind of freaked out when she got home and saw the thing on the floor. I was acting weird too, not sure what to do. Dad brought in a shovel and it got put into a garbage bag and taken who knows where. Then my Mom was scrubbing and spraying the carpet like crazy!

Whenever my parents go out, they used to say "Rusty, guard the mansion," (not that we have a mansion...), but now it's more like: "Rusty, NO DEAD BABY POSSUMS!"

I guess I know what NOT to get my Mom for Mother's Day!

Nuts For Mutts

I had a great time on Sunday at the Nuts for Mutts mixed-breed only dog show. I've competed in the past, but just went to watch this year. My buddy, Hidalgo, came along too and we had so much fun! It was a really hot and sunny day, but Hidalgo and I did wrestle a little. I also got some doggie beef jerky from a nice lady.

We didn't really cooperate with our moms and pose together!

I don't know this dog, but liked his costume!
