So here is where my mud adventure landed me the other day.
Here I am in my crate. I can only go outside long enough to take care of business.
I spent a lot of time contemplating the error of my ways. I still am not sure I did anything wrong. No, I wasn't digging, I was telling the truth. And I wasn't rolling around in the mud. And there weren't any squirrels throwing mud at me (nice try, Holly and KhadyLynn). I didn't get to swim Bricey style. I guess I was sort of testing the moisture content of the soil, I sure discovered it was quite high.
Actually, what really happened is that I was working out for the PupOlympics by doing relay races along the fence with this big yellow lab who showed up outside our fence. It had been raining for days here and the ground was very wet. It was all grassy where I was practicing so I don't really understand where all the mud came from. But let me tell you, Mom was not very happy - but I didn't know I was going to get all dirty. She shouldn't have been so busy playing Connect Four with the little biped - she should have made me come inside sooner. Oops, I had best not let her hear me say that as I am really working on getting her to forgive me.
Maybe I should just look really remorseful like this.
OK, here's what might be the winner.
Ha Roooo Rrooooooooo - works every time.
Woos, Thunder Dunder
awwwwwwww....glad your tactics worked and your mommy forgave you. I wouldn't like to be in a crate - I convinced mommy to take mine to the shelter a long time ago...I thought that it would encourage someone to adopt a doggie if they didn't have to but a crate to take him/her home.....Smart doggie I am!
ReplyDeletewe're glad that you got released from your prison. you are too adorable for anyone to resist for very long.
ReplyDeleteplaying in the mud is one of our specialties. do you want us to give you some pointers?
woofs.
Oh Thunder - good work - and you are such a good doggie to rest so peacefully in your crate - I would not be so good. Glad you were released tho - you look very happy! (and beautiful!)
ReplyDeleteHugs xo

Mistress says you are irresistible and any one of those poses would have got you reprieved.
ReplyDeletePippa
You sure worked her well! You're free again.
ReplyDeleteRemember, humans don't like mud in the house. At least the female ones don't.
Thunder Dunder, you are a wonder. We are very glad she forgave you. We were all feeling very sorry for you even our Mommy who apparently feels the same way as your Mommy about MUD.
ReplyDeleteAlthough she is very strange she expects dogs to get dirty but thinks it is disgraceful when us cats get muddy. She mumbles something about how disgraceful it is when Fenris is nice and clean and us cats are all muddy and getting HER MUDDY and leaving our MUDDY PAWPRINTS everywhere. We tries to tell her they were Fenris' but she didn't believe us. ~Socks, Scylla & Charybdis
Thunder I am practicing your contrite looks I may need them and you appear to be a master. ~Fenris
Hi, Thunder!
ReplyDeleteGlad it worked!
Enjoy your freedom... and be a good boy, ok?
Kisses and hugs
Lorenza
Oh Thunder who could resist that sweet face , your mum had to forgive you. Those eyes. just lovely.
ReplyDeleteHgs GJ x
Oh yeah, that last one did it for sure. It even had OUR mom ready to come to your house to get woo out of the crate! BTW, we just knew whatever it was that got woo muddy was FUN!
ReplyDeleteWoos & a-roos,
Star & Jack a-roo
Thunder your 'forgive me please' faces are pretty good. I find plenty of good long licks tend to help too when I've been naughty.
ReplyDeleteLiffey's Liocks to you
Pretty soon it will dry up and you won't have to worry about bad wets like that one. . .will you?
ReplyDeleteI am glad you are forgiven, Thunder Dunder, you are a good boy, I think.

THUNDER where has your front paw gone? Your mum didn't take it away to punish you, did she?
ReplyDeleteHuffle Mawson

Those are the best poses and looks. I think that you "worked" the situation quite well. I see a treat in your near future.
ReplyDeleteOzzie
Wow Thunder,
ReplyDeleteMy Mommy has a very soft heart. That first look would have done her in but my goodnes you sure did get dirty.
We always have fun at my Aunt Judy's with my friends and it didn't rain at all yesterday....mot so true today.
{{{huggies}}}.....Mona
I am glad you are not in too much trouble, mom would have forgiven you a long time ago, she is some what of a pushover for puppy eyes. =)
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are out of jail now!
ReplyDeleteI guess moms are just picky people.My mom does not like mud either!

Ooooh, I don't think I would like to be in a crate :( We are pretty lucky though, we can go wherever we want in the house and outside :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you got out...
Big licks to you

That last pic would melt anyone's heart. But it was interesting that your crate door wasn't closed. But our doors are never closed unless we are in a time out. And I'm sure that you can guess who gets time-outs in our house.
ReplyDeletePrincess Eva
Nobody, but NOBODY could possibly resist that "winner expression."
ReplyDeleteWe hope you're all forgiven now and be careful next time, big boy!
Your Friends,
Tommy and The Girls

That sad face will work definitely! Our mom is a sucker for sad, puppy dog eyes so we use that whenever either of us get into trouble.. LOL!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on regaining your freedom..
Aw.... you look so cute there. I'm sure you'll be forgive soon. :)
ReplyDelete~ Bae
Oh those blue eyes look SOOO sad!!
ReplyDeleteDo you need me to come and bail you out??
Or have you got paroled yet?
I just don't understand why the humans can't enjoy soggy dirt like we can!!
-Mack
I knew it!! Thunder, I'm so glad you are free'ed!! It def wasnt your fault! I bet the yellow lab didn't have to do time in the slammer.
ReplyDeleteTHose pics could spring anyone from the coop! :)
Licks,
Kylie
Excellent working the eyes and face! It gets us out of trouble every time.
ReplyDeleteThunder,
ReplyDeleteGiving them the sad, I'm so sorry, don't be mad at me face works every time! How could anyone stay mad a such a cute face!
Pedro
I'm glad you have been sprung. I got into some similar trouble yesterday. Mom had been scooping up rocks into the wheelbarrow, but then it started raining, so she went inside. I decided to get into the wheel barrow and jump around in the rocks (and now water) and I got pretty dirty. I had to get the towel.
ReplyDeleteSteve
Don't worry Mom will forgive you in no time and you will be out of your condo. Callie managed to do the same thing yesterday but we kind of had a little bit to do with it..
ReplyDeleteShe started it though!!
Big Sloppy Kisses
Gus, Louie and Callie
Oh, yeah. That second to the last one is IT!
ReplyDeleteTail wags,

I am sure it was a complete accident!! I am glad you got sprung from your jail buddy, those looks had my Mom doing the oohing and aaawwwing.
ReplyDeleteWe like to play in the mud too - then we make sure to walk accross the clean kitchen floor and leave our signature!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you got released from crate "time-out"! You so have the "forgive me" look down! We don't have any look that special! I guess we will have to practice more!
Barks,
Luna and Sole'
LOL at least you got out of your jailcell before long lol
ReplyDeleteThere's no way she could have resisted you! You're so nice and clean now! :)
