Good morning Cape Breton.
Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
The other day we went for a walk and we ended up at Brewer's Convenience. There was a tall guy that was in there and he kinda indicated that he wanted me to jump up. So I did. I think I surprised him at how tall I am. He is about 6 1 or 6 2. I put my front paws on his shoulders and tried to lick his face. He didn't pull back, but I really think he was surprised at how big I am.
Tonya got me a new canvas cover for the middle seats of the car. It fits so much better than the previous one. It is also washable. The other one, well, it still works, but leave a little bit to be desired. It was made for smaller dogs. This seat cover is made more for SUV's. Which is what I get drive around in.
Tonya bought me a new piggy. I haven't chewed the feet off of him just yet. Normally I just loose my mind and either chew the feet off or I chew the nose off. So far, this pig has survived me. But if I get bored. Well piggy...
The Big Guy was playing around with his XBox last night. He bought himself a couple new games. He puts on his headset and ignores me and Tonya. So I just ignore him when he does this. Tonya really doesn't put up with this and will bug him. He doesn't do this often.
It's garbage day today. I get to go for a walk in the snow and sniff the garbage. I can't wait! Fun times!
The Big Guy was telling me that they are going to go purchase a new cordless vacuum so that they can take care of all the fur that I shed. Good luck with that! I drop a lot of fur each and every day.
Bye bye fur now.
Good morning Cape Breton.

So as of today, the days will start getting longer and the nights will get shorter.
For those of you that live in Cape Breton, did you look outside yet? It snowed last night. I can't wait to go outside to enjoy the snow.
The Big Guy has been wearing this shirt and the collar has been bugging him quite a bit. He can't wait to put a new shirt on later on today.
Last night, Tonya and the Big Guy bought me a new bag of kibble. They also got me a new car seat protector. The other one, well, it got ripped up a bit. This new one, was a wee bit more expensive. The other one was supposed to be a hammock. Yea, right. Me in a hammock? Those clips would come undone quickly and the cover would be on the floor of the car. They have to see if this new cover works for them.
They also got me a new feeding station. This one is a lot more sturdy and is higher than the previous one. Also the bowls are BIGGER! This means more water and kibble for me!
Plus the height of the new feeding station will be easier on me. Otherwise, the food is on the ground. Where all my fur that fell off also is. Why would I want to eat my food that's full of fur.
Tonya is going to clean up my old feeding station and give it to Floyd for his dogs. Hope they enjoy it as much as I did growing up.
Well, it's time to go play in the snow.
Bye bye fur now.
Good morning Cape Breton.

Do you ever feel just blue during the Christmas Holidays? The Big Guy told me this story of when he was in CFS Alert. The entire camp got S.A.D. once the sun had set. This would have happened around the middle of October. He was sitting in the dinning room for lunch. It would have been around noon and the sun didn't crest the horizon that day.
S.A.D. = Seasonal Affected Disorder
Everyone in the camp was grumpy. Tempers were quick. People argued for no reason. People were sad that they had S.A.D.
This is the longest night of the year, today, tomorrow and the next day. Although starting on Saturday, the days are going to start getting longer again. But that doesn't mean we're out of Winter. No no, were only starting the first day of Winter tomorrow.
It was snowing a little bit yesterday. That was until about the afternoon, then it changed to rain.
Rain in the Winter is yucky.
But the snow is in the forecast. Although people do say that they don't like the snow, it brings happiness when it snows.
I don't know about you, but I LOVE the snow.
If it could snow enough for me, but not enough for the Big Guy to use his snowblower. That would be great! Then everyone would be happy again!
Bye bye fur now.
Good morning Cape Breton.

Can you see me in this picture? I'm looking over the arm of the chair. There is no fire in the fireplace though.
The Big Guy put me outside this morning. So far, it's the coldest this season. It was -7. I know that other parts of Canada get a lot colder than this. But for this area of the country, this is about as cold as it gets.
Last night, when we were walking down the driveway, I was jumping and jumping. I twisted my collar and the links came apart. This meant that I was FREE. But I didn't run away. They put the collar back on me.
We went for a small walk and went to the store where the lady recognized Tonya. They got a call from the Lotto people that they sold a winning ticket. We think the store gets 1% of the value of the winning ticket. They were pretty happy for us.
I didn't see Bailey. I seen her yard and I know where she lives. But she wasn't outside last night. The other dog that lives with her, he doesn't like me at all.
Tonya said that she is going to be bringing me to the vet and I'm gonna get "tutored". That sounds like fun! At least I think that's what she said.
I gotta see if I can't go upstairs and wake up Tonya. I know that she LOVES it when I jump up on the bed and look down at her. Then I take one of my big paws and brush the hair out of her eyes. Oh what am I saying... I stomp on her face. I think it's a lot of fun!
Bye bye fur now!
