Crowing Contest – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Lady Human, Roo-Roo the Rooster is showing off again. I’m throwing a piece of my mind at him.

Me: Don’t throw too much.

Roo-Roo: Cockadoodle Doooo!

Sweetie: Cockadoodle Ruff Ruff right back at you! I win!

Doodlebug: That’s not even good nonsense.

MoonCat: Good nonsense. Sounds like something a bulldog would know all about.

Look What the Snow Left Behind – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Lady Human, the snow left. It marched off into the night.

Me: It kind of melted more than marched.

Sweetie: And after all that drama, what did it leave us? MUD, that’s what.

Me: It did water the earth. And it was beautiful to look at.

Sweetie: MUD! WONDERFUL, MESSY, STOMPABLE MUD! PLAYTIME!

MoonCat: Where is the nice, clean snow when you need it? Pull out all the foot mats, Lady Human. It’s a muddy bulldog world.
