Hurry-kane is gone away

(Here I am, walking out of D.R.'s room. U can see my tail on the left!) :)


O hai! Welcome to mah blog today. I glad to see u. Plz read and enjoy. :) Woof woof.


The states in the east part of the U.S.A. had a big hurry-kane this weekend. There was a lot of rain and wind, and floods. Where we live, in Flory-dah, we got some thunderstorms, but the big Hurry-kane Ireen went to the north and east of us. We hope all our friends are okay. Plz be careful and do not drive around if u don't have to. Lots of streets in New York, Vermont and other places are flooded up real bad. Plz to stay safe. :) When the rain goes away, plz give stuff to your local shelter, if u can. Lots of critters are going to be squishy and need some luv. :)


D.R. said she learned some new stuff at work today! :) Yay! She was pretty happy. She said it wasn't as hard as she thought. There is another meeting tomorrow. Then they get to have lunch. Mmmmm, lunch. :)


There were lots of doggies out walking with their hoomans this morning. It's good to help your hooman stay healthy. They need to be walked at least two or three times a day. They can walk while u sniff things. Then when you go home, they pick a movie or the nooz to watch, and u have some water. That is what I like to do in the morning. :)


I went to D.R.'s room before. She pet me. Hooray! :) Then I sniffed under the desk. There was a new pack of CDs there. I sniffed it too. You can learn a lot when you smell things. U should try it sometime. It is a fun game.


My Dad is doing better with his health stuff. He has to go to a therapy guy who makes him do exercise, so they can make sure Dad's sur-jiree worked really well. My Dad learns new stuff every time he goes there. I like it when he comes home, because then we can sit on the couch and watch teevee. :)


Okay, I gotta go for now. I see u later. Thanks! {{{luv}}}

Froggies! :)

O hai! This is Keisha. I am a dog. Welcome to my blog thingy. :) Yay! :)


U know, my friend D.R. has seen a lot of little froggies around here lately. Some of them even like to hop onto the back bumper of a car and ride there. The froggies are tiny, less than the size of my paw. D.R. would bring one in, but she said it is probably easier for the froggies to find nice flies to eat outside. :)


There are more pretty birdees around here than ever! D.R. saw a little heron with orange feathers on its head. There are also more cranes in different places. More ducks are coming to live at the houses next to us. One of the ducks walked up to the screen by the pool, when D.R. was swimming this morning. I was sleepin then. I wish I could have seen that. :)


I like to play a game. It is called "Jump and Land on Dad." When Dad had his sur-jiree, I could not do it for a while. Now that he is feelin better, I am playing it again. U start by standing in front of the bed. Then u run and jump. Squish! :) It is very funny. I waked up Dad when he was sleeping today. Oops, I was a little early. Next time I will wait until he is awake. :)


I heard on the news that there is a big hurricane heading for the northern United States. Please be careful, everybody! Make sure your critters are safe and help your neighbors if they need it, especially elderly ones. I hope everyone is okay. :)


That is all for now! I gonna read a book with Dad. I see u later. :)

Sniffin things, and other stuff :)

O hai! Welcome to mah blog. I am Keisha the Spaniel. Good to see u. :)


I has some news. D.R. saw a kitteh that had been hurted, at the side of the road, and it had already gone to Heaven. :( I sorry, Kitteh. Rest in peace.


In other stuff, I was sniffin the floor in D.R.'s room last nite. She's got this really interesting giant electric thing, a black box with lots of plugs in it. I started to sniff it, because it looked really interesting, and D.R. told me to Stop. So I did. It turns out, electrical things are Not Food. Please do not lick them. They do not taste good. You don't want to get hurt. Be safe, play with a tennis ball instead. :)


D.R. went to pick up the rest of her medicine today. She got most of it a couple days ago, but they didn't have the whole thing, so she went to get the leftover things. D.R.'s medicine is very strong and it makes her feel kinda funny sometimes. I think she should lie down on her side and watch the teevee, like I do. The floor is a nice place to do that, especially if you have a towel.


My Dad went to a special doctor today. He had to do some exercise to see if his sur-jury worked. He said it was okay, but his leg kinda hurt a little. Now he is feeling better, though. :)


D.R. watched a movie yesterday. It was about a guy who does boxing. D.R. watched it on her little iPod Touch thing that can play movies from Netflix. Wow! She said she was all surprised by new technology. I hope we can watch a movie with a dog in it next. :)


Here is a fun thing I found on the Internet. It is: http://www.avo.alaska.edu/ That is a website where they have pictures of volcanoes in Alaska. Yes, they have volcanoes there!! :) Oh wow. I like to learn. You can see pictures of the mountains and the snow. If the photo has an alert on it, that means the mountain might get blowed up. So, you do not want to be standing there when it happens.


Okay, Mom is home so I am gonna run and see her. Bye for now! Thanks! {{{luv}}}

Caturday, whee! :) :) :)

O hai! My name is Keisha. I am a spaniel dog. Thank u for reading mah blog. :)


I was sick on Fries-day morning. :( I don't know why, but I throo up on the carpit. Dad cleaned it up for me. I sorry, Dad. {{{Dad}}} My tummy is feelin better now. I didn't get sick after that. Sometimes u just need a lot of water and a lot of naps.


D.R. took me for a long walk yesterday! It was lots of fun. :) We went halfway down the block, then came back. I sniffed lots of lawns. I didn't eat any bugs this time. I did find some nice pieces of tree bark, but I just flipped them over with my nose and my paws. D.R. said they looked like big pieces of paper. They would have been fun to keep, but they were too wet from the rain before.


D.R. is done with work for the week. Yay! Now she can scratch me on mah tummy and we'll watch teevee together. It's fun to put my head on the pillow.


Mom was gone all day, 'cause she went to see a play. I hope she comes back real soon. Then I can say hello, and go back to sleep on my favorite towel. I has a special towel. It is all mine!! :) :) It is soft and fluffy. Mom put the towel in front of the big bed. I get to sleep there at nite. I likes it a lot. :)


D.R. was a little sick to her tummy, too. She has allergies to plants and stuff. This makes it hard for her to go outside for a walk sometimes. Her nose gets all fluffy and her head and chest are all ouchy. She throo up after dinner. I hope she goes to lie down for a nice nap. That always helps me. :)


D.R. saw some nice birdees again! She saw three beautiful cranes when she was driving to work. They were safe on the lawn on the side of the road. D.R. says she would have taken a picture, but she did not have time to stop. She says she will try next time. There were also ducks on the lawn by our house and the house next door. :) Yay!


Another kitteh came to visit our house this morning. He just stayed on the lawn for a while, and then he left. D.R. said he is a grey and white kitteh. He probably lives with hoomans across the street. He a good kitteh. :)


Okay, that is all for now. I hope u has a very good weekend, too. Thank u. {{{luv}}}

O hai! :)

Hi there, my name is Keisha and welcome to mah blog today. I glad. Thank u! :)


Today is Fursday. I have long, fuzzy furs, but Mom hasn't said anything about going to the groomer's anytime soon. That's good. :)


I waked up early today. D.R. did too. I went over to see her, and she pet me. Then when she got a soda out of the fridge, she pet me again. That was good. :)


There was a lot of noise yesterday, so I barked some more. This guy who has a truck was waiting in the middle of the street. He was there for a while. Then he drove away. The truck made a lot of noise. I didn't like that so much. I barked until he left.


Did u know, hoomans take a shower or baff every day? That is a lot. D.R. always smells like soap when she is done with her shower. Soap smells like flowers. :) I am a dog. I guess I just smell like dog.


Okay, I will go now. Dad is gonna do something, and I want to see if I can get a snack. Bye-bye! :)

I went to the park! :)

O hai! This is Keisha the dog. I glad u readin this blog. Thank u. :)


I went to the dog park! It was awesome. There was another dog there, a big fella, but he left pretty quickly. I got to run around and sniff everything inside the fence. I had so much fun! :)


I've been going to sleep early the past couple days. I tried to watch a lawyer show last nite with Mom, but I got a little sleepy. I don't get up early as much, either. Maybe it is 'cause Dad doesn't get up as early, since he went to the doctor before. I miss the smell of breakfast. :)


D.R. worked obertime yesterday. That means she had to stay and do even more stuff. Then she had to go to the storage place and move stuff. When she came home, she was very tired. She has to do it again today. D.R. says she likes the place where she works. They have candy in a big dish for everyone. That helps a lot. :)


There are three bebeh herons around here. They are cyoot! :) D.R. says she will try and take a picture of them soon. They are very small and they all walk together. Herons have funny feet. Their feathers are very pretty.


Okay, that is it for now. I see u later. Thanks! :) {{{hug}}}

Happy Caturday for everybodee :)

(These are the shiny capooters at my friend D.R.'s office.)

O hai! My name is Keisha. Thank u for comin to this blog. :) I happy! :)


Mom is happy now that I am startin to have more energy. I was lethargic for a couple days. Lethargic is a big word. It means I was walkin slow and stuff. D.R. thinks maybe the weather was just too hot. I have drunk a lot of water, so that helps. Also, I just lie on the floor and enjoy the fuzzy carpet, and wag my tail. It's good to rest up after a long week. :)


Today, my Dad was comin back from going out somewhere, and he had his walker that he uses since he had sur-jury. He put little tennis balls on the bottom of two sticks of the walker, so it moves very smoothly. One of the tennis balls fell off, and I started to play with it. :) Dad said to give it back, though, so I did. :)


My Mom is going to see her brother in his home in another town. She may be gone until Sunday. D.R. and Dad will stay with me. I will miss Mom, but I will have fun at home too. :) I hope Dad watches a movie. Then I can watch it with him! :) This is going to be a little like a camping trip. :)


D.R. said she would like to do some swimmin today, if the weather is sunny. I like to go outside and check on my human friends when they go swimming. I don't go in the pool, but I just walk up to it, and they pet me. It's good. :)


I saw a thing on TV about lizards. There were some big lizards in the desert. We have little lizards that run around in the bushes in front of our house. I like to sniff them and see where they go. The black lizard that likes to sit on our windowsill is still there a lot. U can see other lizard families too. Most of them are green. I don't know any green dogs or cats. I bet it's fun to be a lizard.


I haven't had any upset tummies since Mom started giving me only the same food. I like people food, but I don't like being sick, so I am trying to be very good and not take sammiches when people aren't looking. D.R. pets me a lot, which makes it better. :)


Okay, that is all for now. Thank u very much. I see u later. Drink water, be safe and I luvs u!! :) {{{thank u}}}

We had lots of rain

O hai! My name is Keisha. Thanks for comin to my blog today. I happy u are here. :)


In the past couple days, we got a lot of rain. There was thunder boomies in the sky, and the wind was very strong too. Whoooosh! I stayed in the house, 'cause I was scaird of all the noises. I did have to go for walkies a few times. It was not so much fun getting my furs all wet. Today is sunny, though. :)


D.R. got half a day off today! :) She is happy, and says she wants to rest and read some stuff. I think I am gonna take a nap in Dad's room. My job is to be a dog. That is every day. :)


Lots of birdees are visiting us again! D.R. saw three beautiful cranes, there were two baby herons on top of a light pole the other day, and plenty of smaller birds have been flying back and forth from our big tree on the lawn.


The other day, when I was out for a walk, I was sniffin so much stuff on the lawn, I almost didn't want to go home. D.R. was gonna pick me up, but then I started walkin again. She was worried that I might eat a bug. I didn't, but I sure like to put my nose down in the grass and sniff everything. It is like a phone call for dogs. :)


Okay, I's gonna rest now. I am doing pretty well, and I hope u are too. Have a fun weekend! Thank u. :)

Hello on Mondee :)

O hai! My name is Keisha. Welcome to mah blog. I glad u here. Thanks. :)


I went for a lot of walks yesterday. Mom was kinda worried. She said I was goin slowly, because I's an elderlee dog now. I had some water when I got home. D.R. thinks it was the heat. I'm bein careful, though. I rest a lot. I'm glad we got the air conditioner fixed. :)


The kitteh who jumped on our window hasn't come back yet. I hope he does. Super Kitteh! :)


There were lots of thunders last nite. I went to hide with D.R. She pet me a lot. That was better than the stoopy rainstorm! :)


There is this guy across the street who's always fixing his car at nite. I don't unnerstand. Does his car go out by itself? Maybe it is a super robot car. D.R. was at a car show once, and she said they had a giant robot. I would like to see that! :)


Mom is only giving me dry food now. It keeps me from getting sick. So far I haven't had any accy-dents in two days. I will try to keep up my energee, with lots of water and naps. :) Of course, tummy pats help a lot too.


Okay! Now I am gonna watch teevee morning nooz with Dad. See u later!

O hai on Fries-day :) :) :)

O hai! My name is Keisha. Thank u for readin this blog. I glad to see u!! :)


Today is Fries-day. It's almost Caturday! :)


I saw a lot of birdees this week. Ducks, cranes, and little ones that go flllllllit. They were cute. I see them when I go walk, and when they land next to the house. Another duck has a nest by the house next door. Yay! :)


D.R. saw a kitteh! It was at a gas station and it was hiding under cars in the parking area. D.R. shooed it away, so it would be safe. She said she wishes she could have brought it home. :)


There was a kitteh on the window this morning! A real orange kitteh!! :) He jumped up and grabbed on the window screen, because he wanted to catch a lizard. He didn't get it, but he was close. D.R. wanted to adopt the kat, but Mom thinks he lives with a hooman across teh street. So, that is Not Allowed. D.R. still wants to hug the kitteh someday. :)


It rained today. I don't like noises. :( It wasn't for long, though. The ground was all squishy when I went outside. If u are a bird, there are some werms on the sidewalk after a rainstorm, so u can get those. :) I just leave them, 'cause I'd rather eat cookies at home.


We had a guy come here to fix our air conditioner. The thing was Not Working, and it's elebenty jillion degrees outside, so Mom and Dad really wanted it fixed. So they called this guy, and I barked a little, but he was okay, so I let him do his work. It turned out okay. Now our house is much better. :)


That's it for now. I'm going to see what Mom and Dad are having for dinner. :) Luv u! Bye byeses! :)

They stoled some of my bloods (but I's okay now)

O hai! This is Keisha. Thank u for readin mah blog. I glad to see u. :)


The other day, I had to go to the v-e-t. Yipes! I didn't likes dat. They gived me a pointy thing which took away some of my bloods. Then they stopped, and I went home after it. They wanted to make sure I didn't have any boo-boos inside myself. I think I am okay, because I didn't hear any special calls from them.


D.R. also had a stoopy blood test. They sent her to two different nurse places to have it done, because it didn't work at the first place. Yipes! They sticked her with pointy things, and took out three little tubes of her bloods. She says the doctors have to look at them, because if u put bloods under a mikey-scope, it says stuff, just like words. I would much rather help Mom with a crossword.


I sleeped on the floor last nite. It was good. I watched lots of teevee with Mom and Dad first. They liked this show with a lawyer in it. Then we watched some nooz, and then they shut off the lights, and I went Zzzzzzzzz.


Okay, that is all for now. I am doin good. D.R. is goin to work. I see u later! Have a good time. :)
