I have many jobs as self-appointed guard dog...

I watch over the froggy pond, looking out for the frogs, keeping an eye out for snakes... of course I don't go after the snakes myself, I call my daddy to take care of that dangerous task.

Whenever my parents come home from shopping, I watch over the goods in the trunk of the car, sometimes I sit on top of them!

This is my little brother Beni (he's a cat) but I don't hold that against him. He is a good little brother, although this past summer he spent most of his time out here in what my mommy calls a catnip patch. Beni was quite funny rolling around this plant and then passing out in the middle of the yard. I'd check on him many times throughout the day and he was always fine.

 

For Thanksgiving I posed as an Indian's dog. I took that job Very seriously as you can tell by the serious look on my face.

 

Of course the problem with being a self-appointed guard dog is the substantial amount of fear I have. So to get around that, whenever I hear someone outside or see someone walk by the house (or even when I think I hear something) I boldly bark once... and then run out of the room to hide (I don't want to make that stranger come after me) and no matter how many times my parents say I shouldn't be afraid, I can't help it. I'm not big on confrontations. It's a good thing my sister is a REAL Guard dog!

So as you can see, I have my work cut out for me... Even though my parents don't expect me to be A guard dog I feel it is my dog-given duty, especially since they have given me such a nice home. Why wouldn't I want to protect it?

 

I have big shoes to fill...
