| Brynwood Needleworks - Taggart - September 2021 |
Okay, I'll quit pullin' your leg and get right to it. I'm mostly borin' this week, 'cuz Mom has been extra busy, so I mostly shadow her around all day. One thing she made time for was to give me a good brushin' and cuttin' off my toes. She's actually got a bit smart about it, too.
She started doin' my back toes first, which I really didn't mind. Then, she did my front toes. Even though I gave her a little grief, she was up to speed by the time she finished my back ones, so she was PDQ (pretty darn quick) about the front ones. Before I even knew it, it was cookie reward time!

| Brynwood Needleworks - Dog Age Chart via Eukanuba |
Mom asked me if I'd share this with you this week. You know she's been a little concerned about my health. Did I tell you she put me on a diet? sheesh I guess I've gained a few pounds over my fightin' weight, so she said I had to lose three pounds. I knew what that meant. She'd still give me an occasional treat durin' the day, but she's cut my twice-daily rations by two tablespoons each meal! It's been awful.
I know that doesn't sound like much to you, but when a guy only gets a half cup at each meal, a couple tablespoons is a bunch! Last time she weighed me, I'd already lost a pound! I'm gettin' back to my optimum fightin' weight, or at this rate, I'll waste away to nothin'!
So, if you look at the chart from Eukanuba™ above, and you look across from 10-11 years old to the first column. I'm in that weight range. (It's kilograms, but Mom looked that up.) I'm 33 pounds, which equals 14.98 kilograms. I'm almost sixty years old in human years! No wonder I'm feelin' a little achy in my bones. Pretty soon, I'll catch up to Mom!
So, if you have a puppersnapper, you might be interested in how old your pet is in human years. Bella is middle age. Six years old equals about forty two years old, and Carly is almost fourteen years old in human years. Teenagers! hee hee
The girls and I have to start thinkin' about how we're gonna dress up for Halloween. It's about six weeks away, and we have to tell Mom how we wanna dress up. We want to be especially stylish this year.
How are you dressin' up this year? Don't tell me if you don't trick or treat. I know you're at least handin' out treats, so tell me what you're handin' out this year. Inquirin' minds wanna know!
Anyhow, that's all I've got for this week. Not to excitin', I know, but informative, for sure, right? Mom said it's a good thing she doesn't have a chart for people...especially the weight part. She really appreciates that! Gotta run. Don't worry. I'll definitely be back.
