The “Best Of” Riley’s Posts – April 2024
The Life of Riley
It’s the best day ever.
 
I got busted AGAIN today!
 
And suddenly, out of nowhere, that stupid “Dog For Sale” sign appeared once again in the front yard!
 
I can see that stupid cat and its owner from across the street laughing at me…
 
Ok, I’m going to have to put on my saddest, “I’m Not Guilty” face….
 
I’ll even stick my nose down in the hole, like I was trying to protect my human boy from an unknown subterranean zombie variant…
 
I don’t think it’s working…
 
But he’ll get over it…. I already have…
 

It’s the BEST DAY EVER!

I got busted today…
 
Seems I CANNOT hear my human when he yells from across the yard to do – or not to do – something!
 
However, I can hear him open up a bag of Doritos from across the other side of the planet… he is a smart trickster that human of mine…
 
I am loving my fence this Spring! I get to hang out all day outside and chew on sticks… I went to bed exhausted from all the activity…
 
I heard my human mention it was part of the $1,000,000 he has invested in me already … I don’t believe him, but if he Is correct, I am worth it Mr. Man!
 
Now, back to my job of patrolling the permitter and watching for zombies, lions, and bears.
 

It’s the BEST DAY EVER!

This morning my human and I saw our neighbor sitting on her porch and talking with her cat. She actually thought the cat was smart enough to understand her…
 
My human and I just looked at each other and laughed and laughed about that one.
 
Everyone knows cats are too stuck-up to care what their humans think.
 
Grandpa and Grandma came over yesterday. They walked in, petted me, took naps and then left. What’s up old humans? Can’t a puppy get more lovin’ than that? 🙂 
 
I have not left my human for a second since he got home. He clearly needs protection and direction.
 
Rumor has it we are going to the beach on Saturday!  There is a plan to catch a tasty bird in my future!
 
Birds are fair game at the beach.…at a farm, not so much.

Today, after just one day, I completed pilot training and joined the Blue Angels flight team!
 
Well qualified with nerves of steel.
 
Unless there is a big truck – then not so much … but learning.
 
Thanks to my instructor pilot (IP for those familiar with the lingo) Madison Atkins!
 
Now if I could just figure out where Spain is I would fly to visit my human.
 
I hope he gets all of that Spanish talk out of his system while he’s over there!

So after forgiving my human for leaving me (although I had plenty of attention) we had a nice evening of playtime, and singing songs, and treats… 
 
I know he just makes up the words to these songs because “Sweet baby face Riley the wonder doggy” cannot be words in every song on Amazon music.
 
That doesn’t even rhyme.
 
This morning I wanted my human to see that I was playing with the chew toy he bought for me … so I brought it to his desk … it’s my favorite chew toy ever.
 
I try to do my best to help him work by slowly crawling into his lap and putting my head on his keyboard …
 
Still trying to use my puppy powers to try and sway him but still nothing on the cell phone… not a peep …
 
I promise, think I can keep my voice mails to him to under 100 a day.
 
It’s the BEST DAY EVER!
