Here’s Shorty!!!!!!!!!

Hello, my name is Shorty and I am a 5 year old standard doxie. I now live with Katie at her house. See the nice lady in the picture with me? That is Bev and she called my new mom and dad Thursday and told them all about me. See Bev lives about an hour away and she has a friend that manages the pound there and that is where I was. Anyway, she came that day because it had been a long time since she was able too. She has been very ill.  She found out I was on the list to be put to sleep because no one had come to adopt me.  I don’t understand why because I have very good manners. I love to cuddle, and I sing too!  So Bev called and told them all about me and they said I could come live here!

Here I am sitting with Dad in his chair. It is so comfy!

Katie and I love to bark when people walk by!

GRRRRR! BARK, BARK!

I like to beg for everything yummy!

Yes, life is good and I am so happy here too.  I got to go to Springfield yesterday and met some real nice people who gave me a lot of love and cookies too!  Then we went for frozen custard and Katie and I got some!  It was good and I ate mine very quickly!

Please remember if you get a pet to think about those of us in pounds and rescue groups. We make great companions and you just might save a life.

A little fun

Let’s pick on Katie a little bit! I mean it sounds like fun too me! So here we go!
Where is katie’s head?

Look! It’s a nose!

Nothing like a nap on mom’s lap!

Sleep, glorious sleep!

Now that we have had a laugh, here is another little meme. It is from Susie’s space
and is five things about me you might not know.

FARKLEBERRY FIVE

1. When I was little, my younger brother and I were playing in the barn. Being the graceful thing I am I slipped and landed in a cow muffin! Right on my hind end! Gross!

2. Right after my mom died when I was nine, my other brother and I were playing in my aunt’s basement. We found a couple pairs of boxing gloves and put them on and went at it. I wasn’t afraid of it hurting. My brother said with the gloves on it wouldn’t hurt a bit. Of course we all know brother’s don’t lie! Yeah, right! He hit me square in the eye and it DID too hurt! I cried and cried so much that grandma gave me a quarter too make me quit crying! I had a black eye for a week! LOL!

3. I used to work on my own car when I was able. I even changed out a transmission, did my own brake work and tuned them up myself! I even used to do body work on them and loved doing it!

4. When I worked at the Mariott in Wichita I met Travis Tritt, Lynyrd Sknyrd, Ray Charles and some other famous folks.

5. And lastly once again showing my grace and all, I once got my arm stuck between the washing machine and the wall. I was trying to retrieve a paper bag that had fallen down there! Thank goodness I wasn’t home by myself or I might have been there for hours!
