Title: Where's the Damn Dog?
Post by: David In Indy on March 05, 2009, 01:16:42 am: Weren't the Obama girls supposed to get a new puppy? Where is he?

I heard the puppy will be a Portugese Water Dog, but I haven't heard anything else about the puppy!

I WANT TO SEE THE PUPPY DAMNIT!!! :laugh:

When will they be getting him? (or her)

But no. It was a new play set out in the back yard. >:(

the holdup is, they are going to be going to Hawaii on vacation in March and Michelle and Barack decided it would be dumb to get the puppy only to go away and leave it for vacation and then come back.

I wonder why they couldn't take the puppy with them to Hawaii? I'm sure people in Hawaii would LOVE to see and pet the new puppy!

Well anyway, I can see the logic in it I suppose. It's just that I'm DYING to see that cute puppy! :laugh:

Impatience is one of my shortcomings. I must learn how to control it better! ;)

Post by: David In Indy on April 14, 2009, 09:32:58 pm: I don't think Oreo would want to have a damn thing to do with that dog. He doesn't pay any attention to me some of the time. He's a typical cat - "Leave me alone and I'll let you know when I want to play with you". LOL

Crazy animals. Right now he's napping on the window sill and I'm afraid he's going to fall off. I have a pillow down on the floor just in case. :P

He really is a very cute dog. I'd love to have a dog like him, but my hands are full right now.

NO MORE ANIMALS!!! (at least for now)
Title: Re: Where's the Damn Dog?
Post by: injest on April 14, 2009, 10:50:54 pm: I think it is very proper for him to be dressed so formally! Consider his new home!!

;) ;)

and he is a BIG puppy! not a wimpy LITTLE dog!
Title: Re: Where's the Damn Dog?
Post by: David In Indy on April 14, 2009, 10:57:15 pm: He really DOES look formal, doesn't he?

God, his feet look big! That makes me think he will be a big dog. I wonder how big those Portugese Water Dogs get? Cody's feet were huge when he was a pup. He was always tripping over them and landing on his chin. I felt so sorry for him but it was really cute! And he'd just bounce back up again as if nothing happened, so he clearly wasn't bothered by it.

Post by: David In Indy on April 15, 2009, 12:51:05 am: " A dog has no use for fancy cars or big homes or designer clothes. A waterlogged stick will do just fine.

A dog doesn't care if you are rich or poor, clever or dull, smart or dumb. Just give him your heart and he'll give you his. How many people can you say that about?

How many people can make you feel rare? And pure? And special?

How many people can make you feel...extraordinary? "
