21/Jan/17 new kennel installed in the car

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

Remember, if you click on the picture, it goes full screen.

So the Big Guy took the piece that would adjust the size of my kennel and put it in the car.  Now I stay in the back seat of the car while we go for a drive.  It is really easy to take out of the car when humans need to go for a drive.

The snow yesterday was GREAT for making snow balls.  The Big Guy threw a few of them at me.  Because I couldn't see where the snow went, I would bite at the ground anyways.  Figured it was fun to tease him that I found the snow ball.

You can see by the picture, there is a seagull sitting on the top of the house.  I couldn't get him.  He was way too far up.

Here I am at my feeding station.  They are going to have to raise the level of the bowls a little higher for me pretty soon.

Tonya has to work today.  I bet that the Big Guy is going to play his new video game.

Bye bye for now.

20/Jan/17 picture of my undercarriage 4 x studded paws for the snow

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

It's no wonder I can pull so hard when I am out of a walk.  Look at my 4 studded paws.  We're talking maximum grip in the snow, ice, mud.  We're really talking about all terrain paws here.

They can pick up the dirt really easy and make the rest of me dirty when I go mudding.

That is about the only reason that the Big Guy can appreciate winter.  When I track in the snow, it melts and then will dry up on the floor.  Although Tonya can appreciate this a lot more.  She is the one that cleans the floors.  She said that when she got the Big Guy to do the floor, he does a "lick job".

I am sure that you ladies know what I mean.  You must have a husband that will do the fastest cleaning job that you have EVER seen.  Then you have to go around behind him, bringing it up to YOUR standards.  A dirty house doesn't reflect on "him" does it...

The Big Guy was REALLY late getting up this morning.  He slept in.  That is really strange for him.  Now I bet his whole day will be put off.  Good thing he can make up his schedule so that he is back on track.

Yesterday the Big Guy got me a raw hide treat.  It's gone now of course.  I ate it in about 2 hours.  But I was quite for 2 hours.  Tonya says that they are not good for me.  Does anyone out there have any thoughts about that?  Otherwise, I can't see the retailers selling them if they are not good for us doggies.

Bye bye for now.

19/Jan/17 why do I live where the air hurts my face

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

I get up on all the furniture.  Even the stuff that is outside.  It was pretty cold outside when this picture was taken.  We're not talking cold like Winnipeg, but it's pretty cold outside for Cape Breton.

The Big Guy and Tonya must be feeling a little better, as they had some wine last night after their supper.  The Big Guy is still coughing and blowing his nose a lot.  I am glad that I don't get human colds.  They look nasty.

The Big Guy brought Tonya's birthday cake to work. The ladies there LOVED it.  They were really surprised when they found out, the cake was 3 days old.  But the Big Guy kept the cake in a tupperware container that is made for cakes.  So it stayed fresh that whole time.

When the Big Guy put me outside last night, he came outside with me for a few minutes.  He had a bowl and a small brush with him.  Then he "painted" the wood stuff that I like to chew on with Dave's Hot Sauce.  I didn't much feel like chewing the wood last night.  I have a feeling, he is going to be doing that often.  He REALLY wants me to stop chewing on the wood.

Bye bye for now.

18/Jan/17 are you looking at ME?

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

Last night, I got such a nice surprise.  The Big Guy's friend from work, well he came by to walk me and his own doggie, Kylo.

As soon as we were outside, Kylo got off his leash.  Tonya got so scared.  Kylo is not near his own home and he was running out on to the street.  One of her friends doggie, well, he ran out on to the street and he got hit by a car.  He is no longer with his forever family.  He had to go to doggie heaven.  His forever family is really sad.

The Big Guy went out on the front deck and tried to call Kylo, but he wouldn't have any of it.  He was just having too much fun running around and around.

When Shaun got back with me, he said that I can pull really HARD.  But I have these really big paws and I can dig into the ground.  

Shaun said that I don't like to cross the road.  That is true.  Normally I only go for a walk around the block and never cross the road.

The Big Guy REALLY needs to put gas in his gerry can.  It is going to snow today, and there really isn't enough gas in his snow blower to go very far.  So I am thinking, after he drops Tonya off at work, he should fill that can.  Otherwise, he could regret it.

Bye bye for now.
