"Vacation" Concerns

I have concerns. I’m not what one might call “nervous” because we golden doodles “have concerns.” It comes from our golden retriever side. Anywho, I have concerns about something and I need to get it off my tummy. (As a side note, if you scratch my tummy for me, I’d pay you in infinite kisses! Just don’t tell William since kisses are a no-no for service dogs-in-training like myself!) Recently, William and Pamela have been getting things in order for this thing they are calling a “vacation.” I don’t know what that is but it has the word “C-A-T” in it so I have concerns that Mew is up to something again. Maybe Mew is trying to play another trick on me!?!? Gosh, I hope not…. Anyway, as the official Enthusiasm Coordinate at Rees Harps, I am generally very positive and excited about EVERYTHING, but this is really really starting to get me concerned.

You see, my friend Sadie told me that her pack leader took a “vacation” recently and while her pack leader was on this “vacation” Sadie had to stay at a kennel. Sadie was telling me that she had to stay in a pen. There were other dogs in nearby pens too. At least she was not alone and she did get to make a lot of new dog friends. There were new people friends too and Sadie got to run around outside and play a lot. Honestly, that almost sounds fun! It’s just that the whole kennel thing just sounds really scary to me. William hasn’t mentioned anything about a kennel yet, so I’m just hoping that I won’t have to go to one but, well, I have concerns….

William took me to get my coat trimmed last week (I love, love, love getting a trim! Who doesn’t like being pampered!?!?) and mentioned that less “sand” will get caught in my coat while were at the “beach”. What does THAT even mean?? “Sand” “Beach”?? “Vacation”?? I just can’t handle it anymore… HELP!!!

Oh, and another thing. I was super excited to meet Santa this past weekend (like, super duper jump up and down rotary-tail excited). But then we all FORGOT!! Gah!! Now I have to keep watch of his hat for another week. Don’t worry, big man. I’m keeping a close eye on your hat for you.

Well, that’s it for now. I’ll keep you updated on anything that I learn about this whole “vacation” situation. If you have any clues, let me know. Maybe we can all figure it out together?.

Woof.
