I know that the Meowies have already attempted to roust you for Food o’clock, Human Mommy, but my request is even more urgent.

I need to go potty! Now!

“Go to sleep, little Xena. It’s naptime.”
“Okay, Papa Cosmo. It will be playtime right after naptime…”

“Right?”
–Cosmo and Xena
“You have destroyed your last Dog bed!” says Human Daddy. “No more Dog beds for you!”
We could have deployed the Puppy Eyes earlier, perhaps, but sometimes negotiations hinge on timing.
We deployed the Puppy Eyes right after our return from a fabulous, adventurous, EXHAUSTING walk/run.

Now we have an extra-large Papasan chair cushion all to ourselves.
Thank you, Human Daddy.
Thank you, Amazon Prime.
–Cosmo, Xena and Stella
Are you done with that, Stella?

Waste not want not…
We’re more than happy to help you finish it off!
–Cosmo and Xena
There’s a bug!

A fluttery, frenzied fly right there in the houseplant!

I wonder why the other Guard Dogs are snoozing through the excitement.
–Xena
Sure, I’m not the biggest Guard Dog. I get that.

Still, I’ve got some good back-up.
–Xena
There are good smells up top and good smells down below.

When you’ve got a good Sniffer, there are good smells everywhere!
–Cosmo and Xena
This is comfortable for you, right, Human Daddy?

Good! I thought you needed a lap cuddle.
–Cosmo
When you invite over friends…

…be sure to have enough Dog biscuits.

If you must share space with a Woofie, make sure that the Woofie’s fur complements your own.

And that she sits at least a tail-length behind you.
