The “Best Of” Riley’s Posts – February 2024
The Life of Riley
It’s the best day ever.
 
My human keeps singing “… my baby does the hanky panky…” he doesn’t know all the words and just makes up new ones, but it’s my favorite song.
 
I like eating bugs and carrying my friend the frog around in my mouth – although it never tastes as good as it sounds.
 
My human bought me an indestructible dog toy from pet smart.
 
Lasted 4 hours.
 
He was speaking Spanish as he picked up the pieces … I think it is a record… for both destroying an indestructible toy and human boy Spanish phrases in five minutes.
 
I applied to be a calendar girl for a fundraiser… paws are crossed I am one of twelve!
 
PS… You can tell I have something in my mouth … anybody want to guess what it is?
 
It’s the BEST DAY EVER!!!

I am pretty sure I am up for sale again!!!
 
Seems i am being blamed for digging another deep hole in the yard.
 
Mr Man was speaking Spanish again as he filled in the perfectly good hole and mentioning banishing me to the outer kingdom, wherever that is.
 
I swear I don’t even remember doing it, but even if it was me, “allegedly,” this is what I do!
 
Deal with it human!!!
 
PSST… Do not tell Mr. Man this is where the remains of those tacky Riley slippers are going to be buried.
 
It’s the BEST DAY EVER!

It’s the best day ever.
 
It was a big weekend for me!
 
My human gave two of his friends (new to me) the opportunity to love on me.
 
They did a good job too! It was fun and I hope they come back!
 
Then yesterday my human abandoned me for a really, really, really, long time so he could go play golf.
 
He came home singing “We are the champions” what ever that means.
 
All I know is that I went from a lot of attention to nothing.
 
Then a took a nap in the sunshine.
 
It’s the BEST DAY EVER!

So on a lazy warm Sunday my human decides to work in the yard covering my perfectly dug holes with new sod…
 
It was so depressing to watch.
 
Somewhere off in the distance, I could faintly hear the sound of taps being played…
 
The only good part is that he used Black Kow (denatured cow poop) to fertilize the dirt but then yelled at me for rolling in it! 
 
Good grief! A GR can only take so much temptation!
 
So I just spent the afternoon laying in the sun watching him work.
 
Hey, you missed a spot…
 
It’s the BEST DAY EVER!

Good morning everybody!!
 
I realize I am a big smart tough girl, but when I sleep I like to be right next to my human, if not on top of him…. to protect him.
 
I also like to hold his hands when I can.
 
It makes him feel safe from dangers he can’t even realize.
 
He is so lucky to have me!!!
 
It’s the BEST DAY EVER!
