Squirrel Watch 2008

Mommy put some pretty flowers outside on the back porch. This was all fine and dandy until the squirrels came. The squirrels thought that the pretty flowers were a sweet treat for them to eat...they were WRONG! Mommy and Daddy gave me the very important job of Official Squirrel Watcher.

It is my job to look out the back door and alert Mommy and Daddy if any squirrels come on the back deck. I had to go through a rigorous training period with Daddy. He showed me how to watch for the squirrels. I did a pretty good job of this, but sometimes I would get tired and fall asleep and then those pesky squirrels would come while I was sleeping. They must have been the official dog watchers. When I was a good puppy and saw the squirrels, Daddy would let me go out and try to catch them. They were lucky that they could fit throught rails and I couldn't or I would have caught them!
