liddle tings

this week is Thanksgiving break frum skool, so me and mommy gotted to take lots of walks up and hunt for hippities at the elmentry school.  Today I wuzzed sniffing around and I finded a very small liddle bench.

thin I finded a very small liddle white glove.  I barked at it and mommy wuzzed all proud!.  She sed "Oh Percy, I tink it is time to start training you to be a tracking doggie and git sum more titles!".  

I smiled and sed ok, I ready to learn new tings all time!  Tracking sounds like a fun new game.

Mamas boy

evrybuddy calls me a mommies boy.  I don't know why or whut that meens.  but I ruv my mommy so much that I jest has to be touching her all the time.  sumtimes she sez "Percy, stop touching me all the time."  I never pay iny mind to her, she is lucky I am not always in her lap where I rilly wunt to be.

this is me putting my head on mommys leg and foot.  I falled all to sleep like this.  I sleeped good.

my whistle

Check out this cool new addishion to my collar.  it looks like a grey box.  It is callt the whitstle.  It tracks me with sumptink callt gps tecknoligy.  Mommy can look on her phone and it will tell her where Percy is.  sumptimes, it jest sez Percy is at home.  But win I em away frum home, it sez, Percy is away frum home.  and it can tell her jest xactly where I em and how miny miles I has walked and all kinds of great stuff.

mommy telled me that Santy Paws can use it to keep track of me being naughty or nice.  So I bedder watch out.

tonight is the speshil night!  the star is gonna light up and then we will see a fire werks show.  it is a chilly night, but we have sleeping bags in the back of the truck to keep us warm while we wait.

mommy sed "don't look away Percy, it is going to happen any second".  So I jest watched and waited.

Thin all of a sudden, there wuzzed a lighted star and sum big bangs and pretty lights in the sky.

the star is on to celebrate the season!  it wuz so citing.  I saw it light up!!
