Flat Mia, day 2 part 2

I learned a lot from Buddy. He tells me you must slow down and smell the flowers or else you will miss out on the beauty of life. He also tells me that you need to rise as the sun is rising to know what the day will bring.

After a nice lunchtime nap H1 tells me it is time to meet the rest of the gang. Now remember, she doesn't know this rowdy group was already playing with me when I first arrived here. I'm next introduced to Mama, Monster, Phat Boy, Sir Licks A Lot, Droopy, Ralph the Mouth and the Queen.

Mama made her way to the farm 6 years ago. Someone dumped her in the desert and she found her way to the farm. She ended up being pregnant and two of her boys still live on the farm, Sir Licks A Lot and Fat Boy, the other 5 siblings were adopted out. Of course, you wouldn't know that Mama, Sir Licks A Lot and Phat Boy were related because none of them look alike, but they are and they are the best of friends. As a matter of fact, if one of them ends up trailing behind or gets shut out of an area the others whine and wait for H1 to take notice and reunite. Even if their separation was for only a split second they get excited and start jumping around.

Monster is a funny dog. He loves to play! He also likes chasing after H2 especially when they play hide and seek. He always finds H2 hiding under the blankets, it is his favorite game. Monster and Droopy are H2's favorite playtime friends. Ralph the Mouth is the noisiest of the group. Ralph the Mouth constantly barks at anything that moves. Yes, she might even bark at the wind. She is a high alert dog which is probably due to her breed. Ralph the Mouth has a lot of charming qualities, but she also gets into a lot of trouble. Mostly trash trouble. Yep, even though she is fed well she likes trash. You will often here H1 hollering across the way telling her to stay out of the trash. You really can't blame Ralph the Mouth for liking trash, it just means her nose is working.


What I'm learning around here is that love is plentiful and discipline is short. H1 may holler a stern warning to this rowdy, mischievious group, but that is all. H1 says "We are only keepers of God's creatures and our job is to provide comfort, warmth and love to all of mankind's best friends".

Well it looks like the evening race is going to begin. I put my bets on Sir Licks A Lot he seems to be the most built for a scrimmage across the farm.

Stay tuned next Monday for another update...
