Last week Dad and my best buddy went off for a night - without me.....and upon their return they brought back, in my royal canine opinion, the most beautiful concrete adornment in my honor! Their excitement over such a find could hardly be contained as they gleefully revealed it to my mom outside the front door. I could tell she was just thrilled as well, as she instructed them to put it to the side and not in the island near the small angel. I was particularly impressed with the details and immediately proceeded with the official canine 'handshake'. Dad gave him a pet, which I must admit, did not please me that much. There was talk of getting a second for each side of the entrance......mom said it 'was her dream'. What does sarcasm mean?
Yesterday was rainy and the ground was wet and mushy. This, I do not like and it is all I can do to take care of business and get back into my abode. Though I enjoy the fragrances of the outer world, falling water doesn't agree with me.
I've managed to enjoy myself this week even though I have missed my best buddy. Being a curious fellow, I have overheard talk of a trip to see BigBoy on Saturday......that should be an experience. I hope I get my own bed.....should be a 'king' size. 
Frankly, I'm exhausted now. Wishing all my canine peers out there abundant odors, especially Snuffles and Annie! Love,
Apollo, His Royal 'Hine'ness
He's incredible:) LOL, every surface on which he lies (every piece of furniture that is:) looks extremly comfortable with him on it:)
ReplyDeletegive him my love

PS his concrete mate is nice too...
I love it when you find a statue that resonates with you! I have a little meditating dog that looks like Emma! It's by my front doot too.
ReplyDeleteApollo, you're one handsome dude!
I so enjoy spending some time with you Apollo and watching you check things out and then sleeping! LOL
ReplyDeleteoh apollo you have a new friend, but don't worry, no one can ever be as handsome as you. love ya sweetie pie.
ReplyDeleteApollo, it is as if your likeness has been exactly cast - Unbelievably handsome!
ReplyDeleteI love your description of 'falling water'. Just so.
Word verif is 'unappin' - Just what you will be doing in that king size bed, I'll bet!
Truly, His Highness can sleep anywhere! Apollo, you crack me up kid.
ReplyDeleteApollo certainly knows how to enjoy life!
ReplyDeleteHis story brings simplicity and innocence, thank you. Your work is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness Apollo. You have concrete competition now. You better be good or your Mom might trade you in on a concrete model that doesn't take so much work. I mean that concrete dog won't even get fleas. Hmmm It might get moss though. You might be safe. tee hee...
ReplyDeleteAnnie says hi to Apollo & sends her understanding of sharing attention with someone else even if it is a statue and doesnt move. She has to share with THREE CATS. oh my thats more then any canine can stand. :)) He is too cute for words. :))
ReplyDeleteWow, Apollo, you are King. Your very own statue, and it looks just like you. Did you have to pose for hours for the artist to make this? I'm sure you sat very still the whole time. Have fun on your little trip. Be sure to stick your head out the window.
ReplyDeleteOh, God dog. LOL
