A Message from Charlie

Hi! I know Mom was telling you about her the trip to West Virginia but I am interrupting to tell you about a problem I had. I got upset in the car the other day. 


I took off my red collar in the car and chewed it in half. Mom asked what is wrong with you, but I could not tell her. Actually I want to get up in the front seat and drive the car. I watch her do it and it doesn’t look hard. She does not always go to the right place. Sometimes I want to go get a cheeseburger, or I want to go to the dog park. It’s very disappointing when we don’t go to someplace fun.


She got me a new harness, and it is terrible. It is stiff and heavy so I tried to chew through it. She took it off me. 

Here’s one of my friends at the dog park.

And here’s a picture of me that has special effects.

Sometimes we go out the back door and sit on the deck. There was a hummingbird feeder there and yesterday it had a lot of buzzing yellow jackets and this big hornet. Mom waited until dark and then took the feeder down. The hornet was there sleeping! She touched it with a stick, and it flew away.


I have one more critter to show you before I go to bed. We saw this sheep from the car today.

Good night!

  4. Charlie you really need to stop chewing all these harnesses. You’re not a puppy any more and there will be no money left over for cheeseburgers.

  7. Charlie, We are sure you could drive that car like a champion!
    That hornet looks really scary. OUR Mummy wouldn't have dared touch it, even with a stick!
