We're Back









Hello, Miley here. It's been so long (over two months). Mommy has either been in the field or very busy report writing. After many wet nose pokes and sad looks, I finally forced her to type. I turned 3 years old last month and she didn't even blog on my birthday which is also I guess my Gotcha Day since I was born here (and so was my doggy Dad, Magic). Spayed years ago, Great Great Grandma Fancy and Grandma Kateybug also live here.

Happily, it is now cool enough for me to go out in the field again no more 85 degree heat (although the high was 25 F a few weeks ago). We've been out in the bentonite mine again between storms and wet roads (greasy bentonite can be slicker than ice). The cold weather is hard on great great grandma's arthitis; she is 11 years old and weighs about 80 pounds - a lot bigger than 55 pound me. She spends most of her time indoors and often near the wood pellet heating stove when its cold out.

I love hiking around the outdoors in the cooler weather and helping Mommy get in shape. Mommy's backpack and jacket (if placed on the ground) are fun to play with. The mosquitoes are gone and most of the biting insects (hopefully including the ticks).
Hugs, Miley

  1. Well! Welcome back buddy! We knew you'd come back! And you did!

    So. Let's see. Happy Summer! Happy Independence Day! Happy Birthday! Happy Gotcha Day! Happy Labor Day! Happy Autumn! Ummm. What else? (You get the idea!) We're guessing the weather is turning so that you are in dog heaven. It's amazing to see the expanse of land where you can run. But we know that your main job is to help your mommy. And to make sure the pellet stove is stoked so that Great Great Grandma can be warm and cozy.

    Keep nudging your mommy, and we'll keep an eye out for ya!

    It's great to see ya, Miley! Take care, high country dog.
