G is for Good Dog!

I thought it might be easier to post a video of my dog than to actually write something.
Three-and-a-half-(sigh)-hours later, I have my first You Tube clip. It's neither cute nor funny and there is an exorbitantly long shot of my floor that is waiting for a winning lottery ticket and salvation. I could have written a really good story in three and a half hours.
Instead, there is a this:




Happy Friday, everyone!
And make sure you enter my Damned Door Contest - it closes on Monday.

  1. Misty tried and tried, but the likelihood of Timmy ever being recued from the well is at best, uncertain.

  2. Harry - HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! That is an awesome comment! I know, the poor dog is doing her best but the stupid owner keeps saying "Where's Cocoa?" BUAHAHAHAHAHA!

  3. Misty has such a cute, happy little face.

    Ginger was sleeping under my feet when I turned this on. When Misty barked she jumped up and almost knocked me over in the process. She was completely enthralled by your video. Misty has a fan!

  4. Laurita - I'm sorry you almost fell over - not so sorry that I'm not laughing at the picture you painted!!! And I told Misty she had a fan and she wagged her tail so I think she's excited. Then again she gets excited about everything. "Cocoa?"

  5. Lucy also perked up when she heard Misty barking. She got quite interested for a moment or two then when back to licking her crotch.

  6. Deb - at least Lucy has her priorities straight.

  7. Sophie and Taz started barking their heads off, wondering why I had a 'secret' dog stashed in my computer!

  8. Awww, your dog is surely cute! It was worth the viewing.

    Bwt, you have a nice voice, Cathy. Ever thought of narrating your stories? ;)

  9. Mari - see, now I KNOW you're just being nice to me!!!! Don't I sound like an old lady on helium?

  10. You DO have a nice voice! I thought so too! And no, no crotch licking. Sorry to disappoint.
    *I sure do hope people read the earlier comments to put that in perspective*

  11. You have a very talkative dog. ^_^

  12. In a way, your video provided just as much conflict as a good story would've. You have the dog owner wanting the dog to do something, you have the dog wanting to do its own little thing, and you have the underlying matter of "Where's Cocoa?".

    While we never really find out where Cocoa is, the story does come with a complete ending, i.e. the owner gives up. There may even be a theme or moral to this story is, but I'll have to get back to you on that.

  13. I can't hear her (my sound is broken), but that dog is pretty darned cute by the looks of her.

  14. Misha - yes, talkative is the nice word for 'yappy'! Thanks for the visit and the follow!

    Jeffrey - You're an English teacher, right? You should be! Your comment cracked me up almost as much as Laura's crotch licking one. LOL!!!!! And thanks for the visit and the follow!

    Abe - You are a lucky man that your sound is broken. I'm pretty sure she sounds better that way.

  15. Misty is definitely on her own agenda despite your best efforts - I think that gene came down through the dog gene pool to my dog, Kiwi, as well.lol

    Great video - and I agree with Laura - you have a nice speaking voice - have you thought of recording some of your stories and presenting them verbally? If I am not mistaken I think that Michael Solender did that. It adds a whole new dimension to the story being told! I think Laurita did it as well?

  16. Well, I called David Letterman and if you can pull that crotch licking thing off without the CBS censors getting too excited, you're in for the next segment of slow stupid pet tricks. Though your pet is not stupid - it has a great response spin to your voice which is absolutely musical - unless it was of course that helium thing akin to the Wizard of Oz Munchkins. The red plaid rug is nice too Cathy.

    Yeah, Harry scored.

  17. Hey ... can we rent out Jeffrey Beasler?

    I bet he makes the nutrients labels on packaging sound like movie fare.

  18. Kate - Misty says, no crotch licking, no Letterman. And she's stubborn, as you can see. I am totally in agreement about Jeffrey Beasler. That man has a future in advertising!

  19. Ha-ha, very cute. I second the no-crotches ruling.

  20. What is it they say? Never work with children or animals? Both are unpredictable. Very cute dog, Cathy.

How's it going, eh? It's SO good to hear from you. Tell me every darn thing...
