Tattle Tale Tuesday



So yesterday Mr. Lightning was on the prowl for some mischief.  Many of you so graciously offered to help him out.  Are you wondering if there was mischievous activity here yesterday and did Lightning find it?  Read on and you will find out.


Mischief?????  From me?????  Are you totally off your rocker???  I usually sleep in until at least 4:00 p.m.




Well, yes, once upon a time, it could have been me.




I remember well many exciting adventures involving mud, holes, critters, gardens.
 

 But now that I am seven, I have left those puppyish behaviors behind (heh heh).




Now you KNOW I have the face of innocence. 




HEY, wait a minute!!!!  Why are you all looking at ME????





In fact, I am quite proud to tell you that I was INSIDE when all the fun began.  Want to see what happened?




Well, we don't have any photos of the actual event because the Momster was too freaked out to think to grab the flashy beast. But here is a post-mischief photo.




"Somepup" had found this hissing critter and was flipping it up in the air.  We don't know our snakes very well, but we are pretty sure this is a harmless one, but STILL . . .   That rake is just a little biped one, not a full sized adult one.  And do you know who that Somepup was?????





Yep, it was ME, Ciara - I found him in the grass and I was having such a great time tossing him up in the air.  He didn't taste very good, but it was still fun UNTIL the Momster spotted me through the window and came out shrieking at me to LEAVE IT!!!  Ah well, it was fun while it lasted.





See, you were all wrong.  Now let's get this post done so I can chomp on that sweet potato cookie.


Woos - Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning

  4. Ciara! You are so brave! We have one of those snakes that lives in our garden (totally safe but ultra freaky) and I had a show down with him last year...Couldn't bring myself to chomp him though!

    I did catch a vole this morning though and while Mrs. Master was taking Ollie in, I ROLLED IN IT!

  9. It runs in the blood! If it isn't Ciara, it has to be you, Lightning. If it isn't Lightning, it most probably is Ciara.

  14. Well, that's quite the mischief, Ciara! You were only having fun. Mom remembers one of her kitties running down the hill behind our house (when they lived in Boise) with a 40" garter snake in her mouth. Dad was always 'releasing' snakes back up the hill.

  15. We KNEW Ciara was NOT over the mischief stage.

    Our snakes are 99% poisonous...only the pythons aren't, so we have to stay away from ALL snakes.

  16. Oh, I can hear the shrieking of the human pitching a fit when you were just having fun. Well, it was good while it lasted.

  17. Hi there, So very thankful that the snake was just a garden variety and not something that could make you very ill. We got a lot of rattlers in our yard when we lived in northern Ca. but I'm thankful we don't have them here-at least not in the yard. You were so obedient to "leave it"-well done.
    Happy Paws,
    Noreen & Hunter

  19. What mischief! I think that's a garter snake, but I'm no snake expert either. Is it ok?

  20. Ciara the snake wrangler. hahahha. I get snakes sometimes in my yard too. But now for the most part I let them alone.... for the most part.
    Enjoy your treat. It is well deserved.
    Blessings,

  21. You're one brave Husky, Ciara. Girl power rules!

    Glad to hear you caught it while it was still small.

  22. I can imagine that flipping a snake around would be a very satisfying feeling. I can also imagine being like mom and freaking out.

    On a side note...Twinkie is our kitty! Bet you didn't know we had a kitty. She's 17 years old and doesn't get much blog time. I'm going to update my post because I forget that a lot of folks don't know about Twinkie. Thank you for asking.

  23. OH! ICKY SCARY!!! I HATE snakes. The only good snake is a dead snake!

    I do a "snake dance" when I see one that involves running by kicking my legs high in the air (Think drum major style) while shrieking in a high pitched voice: SNAKE SNAKE SNAKE!

  24. Oh I am afraid of snakeys!
    But I do like sweet potatoe snackys.

  28. Ciara we think playing with a snake looks just like playing with a rope toy. Too bad you couldn't get one of your brothers to play tug of war with you and the snake.

  32. Momma reacts the same way when Puff and Nuka go lizard hunting...the snake game sounds like they would join right in. Me? I prefer the sweet potato cookie idea!

  33. OMD Clara you found a sneaky snake. Bet that was great fun playing catch with it. What can we say but the peeps always spoil our fun and yes it usually involves lots of shrieking. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
    Best wishes Molly

  34. Our woofies will chase a snake in our yard sometimes. Mom is very grateful that the snakes are faster than the woofies because she would freak if she saw them playing with one.

  35. Ciara the only girl and fearless!!!
    Your brothers must be very proud of you.

    PS Mom says all snakes are dangerous 'cause no matter whether they are poison they would scare her to death same result as being poison

  36. Oh gosh...I would have FREAKED! I freaked out about the frog I found in the flower bed last week. You sure are brave, Ciara! I bet you were having tons of fun flipping that snake up in the air! Yuck.

  40. How can I translate a loud shriek on a comment??? OMG! Snakes are a four-letter word here...Ciara, really? You? Wow...I would have so guessed Lightning (sorry, boy, bad rap, I know)...sounds like Ciara was having a grand ol' time...eek...shiver, shudder....
    (glad every pup was OK and it wasn't a biter). Shiver, shudder, shriek...

  41. Oddly, timid little Gg is a snake-hunter. It makes me CRAZY.

    Sissy likes sand crabs and was very upset that none were spotted at the beach.

  43. Bow-Wow I have never met a snake before, it sounds like you had such a fun time playing with him until your Momma spotted you, such naughtyness, I think your brave, I would never have gone near it! Love and Hugs from your Furiend Frank XxxxX
