Tuesdays With Tag - I've Still Got It...

Hi, Everybody!

I'm still in Wisconsin and we're stayin' here for a while. Mom and Dad don't 

want me gettin' soft around the edges, so we make sure I get my regular workouts.

Dad loves tossin' those bumpers for me, so I though you might like to come along

and cheer for me today. It's perfect weather for fetchin' at the campground.

Notice my singular focus on the canvas dummy.

Dad lobs it about a mile away and I'm right there when it hits the ground!

"Hi, Mom." 

(wink. wink.)

Dad decided to change direction and toss the dummy over this little brush line.

Great form, right?

The first time, I leaped right over the brush and took my retrieve back to Dad.

The second time, I lost my footing a bit and yelped. I got the retrieve but stood

in the field holding my foot up and looking at Mom. She dropped the camera,

ran out to me, scooped me up and said, "It's OK, Tag. Mom will carry you back."

After we got back on the regular grass, she put me down and I walked just like usual.

 HA! ACTING!!! GENIUS!!! Mom and Dad both sighed a sigh of relief, but Dad said

 our session was concluded for the day. I carried my retrieve all the way back to The

Cloud. Once I was inside, Dad took the dummy out of my mouth, and guess what?!!!

  Mom gave me a sweet potato dog chew treat! That's like the best treat EVER! I'm gonna eat it now. I'll be back next week...still on the road...with a new adventure. 'til then... "Wag Like Ya Mean It!"

Tuesdays With Tag - Gimme Somethin' Good...

 Hi, Everybody!

Is it Tuesday again already? Whew. Time sure flies.

I wanna tell you about my newest, favorite treat...and before you ask...

No. I'm not gettin' compensation from some big, fat corporate sponsor. 

I'm not even gettin' any free stuff for doing this! I just think I oughta share

when I find somethin' worth tellin' you about. I'm just a nice guy that way.

 Mom got these from Dr. Stephanie the last time we were in the vet's

office (remember I had to go get my teeth cleaned?). Mom always

 checks the "treat shelf" in the front lobby to see if there's somethin'

special she can bring home for her favorite Corgi. That's me!!!

 What she brought home for me was a bag of these little beauties.

They're real sweet potato, transmogrified into veggie rawhides.

GENIUS!!!

 See? 100% Sweet Potato.

Mom and I laughed at the comment the founder (Chef David) put on

the back of his bags. "Enjoy and say ARF ARF to your Dog for me."

He obviously has never met a Corgi. We are way more sophisticated

than to utter a simple "ARF ARF". Hasn't this guy ever heard of me???

Either way, I'm here to tell ya that these babies are delish! Mom usually cuts

 the big ones in half so I don't blow up like some big, overfed, over-treated dog

(but that's a rant for another time). Most of the time they're just the right size.

 The other cool thing is that they're made in the

good ol' U.S. of A...in WISCONSIN even!

(about a 1/2 hour from where Mom and Dad used to live!)

WARNING: NEVER eat dog food or treats from China!

They put stuff in their food that kills dogs. If you have

food or treats from China, better get rid of it right away.

Your future health - or your life, even - depends on it!

 To say it's my most favorite treat of all would be a serious understatement. I'd eat 'em for dessert if Mom would let me.

 OK. It's time for me to quit talkin' and get chewin'.   It's gonna be a great week. Mom is over at the Morgan Center helpin' people vote today. If anyone needs me, I'll be here keepin' busy with my little piece of sweet potato heaven. mmm, mmm good! I'll see ya next week. 'til then... "Wag Like Ya Mean It!"
