Clyde's Blue Blanky

The other day, I was in my room getting my clothes ready for the next adventure at school. Clyde was on the big, fluffy, purple chair I have in my room. His small crate that he sleeps in has his be, a pillow of mine, and an airplane blanket. He got up , pulled the blanket out of the crate with his teeth, and dragged it over to the chair where he sat back down and cuddled. This may not seem funny, but imagine a small Dachsund, acting as if I weren't there, pulling a blanket hanging out of his mouth about three feet behind him. If you saw what I saw, it was pretty funny. Clyde is building up what we know as his personality more and more. A shout out to all my friends at school who have been visiting scince I spread the word: Thank you so much! If you like it and have an email then fo ahead and subscribe. Thanks a lot for visiting and if you have been around Clyde and know I forgot a story, then just tell me. Bye!

My Shredded Welcome

Today was my second day of school, a.k.a., Clyde's second day of being alone for seven hours. When I got home he was bouncing around and crying like usuall, but he also had a little surprise for me. Near our front door, (and his crate) we have a mat to leave our shoes on, a bit of to the side. It is small, and not the most important thing, but still, it served the purpose. Well this afternoon, it was half way pulled into Clyde's crate. He had taken off rubber bands wound around the braided tassels and left them in his crate. One edge was starting to be unraveled, and one edge had a piece  ripped off along with it being shredded. Note to Self: Keep things away from Clyde's crate.

Clyde's Geocaching Adventures

The last few days before school started today we took Clyde along when we participated in a worldwide internet scavenger hunt. (For more information, go to http://www.geocaching.com/.) My dad and I took him the first time we went. We were in the Woodbury Cemetery to find the first of a four cache series. He walked with us along the way until the find. The second time he had to stay home because we took the bikes to ride while we looked, and he doesn't have one. The next day we took him with us to Fairfield Hills along with my two cousins. He was living the life. We had to walk through some prickers and I carried him through that and the woods so their was no chance of him getting hurt. Then my dad and I took turns holding the leash so we could solve hints and use the GPS. And today he got his first taste of staying home from 7-2:30. Have fun Clyde!
