It's time to vote in the Owney the Dog contest!

Hi everyone! It's time to start voting for ME in the Owney the Postal Dog contest.

OK, it's a look-a-like contest, and I know I don't look like Owney. But I'm an adventure dog who likes to travel!

You can vote once a day, so you should do it first thing when you wake up every morning. That way I can win! And tell all of your friends to vote for me, too!!

Go HERE to vote. I'll be your best friend forever. I'll be your best friend forever anyway, but if I win I'll have a new iPad to talk to you on Facebook and I'll have my handsome face hanging in the Smithsonian museum!

Love
BANDIT!!!

A song about poop!

I like songs and I like poop. So look at what I found! A song about poop!

Just in case you didn't know, if you are out for a walk and make a poop, your mommy is supposed to use a bag and pick up the poop and carry it home to throw away. Unless you are wearing a diaper. Then you can carry your own poop home.

Love
BANDIT!!!

We are going to experiment with new food from Castor & Pollux

When I was at BlogPaws I made a new friend named Mary and she has the best job in the world. She works for a dog food company called Castor & Pollux! Yum.

Mary fell in love with me and sent me a giant box of food and stuff so that I can taste them all and tell her what I think. She loves me so much she sent enough for all three of us dogs plus something for Murphy!

Mary is a good friend.

So here is the stuff we are going to try: dog food, dog food, dog food! And some cat food and treats. There are vegetables and fruit in the food and it tastes really super yummy. And because one of the food is a fish food with no chicken, Scout can even try it!

Mommy said that is it made in the good old USA, which is very, very good. I will tell you all about the food as we try it out.

Love, Mary's friend,
BANDIT!

Uh oh. Me and Bailey are really, really bad.

Me and Bailey had a big fight last night and when Mommy and Daddy tried to break us up, Bailey accidentally bit Daddy and ouched his finger so bad he had to go to the hospital and have the doctor sew it up.

This is what happened: Mommy and Daddy went to the airport to get Grandma home from her adventure in Alaska, and when they got back from the airport we were so happy to see them that we got very excited and then got into a fight. Me and Bailey have big fights. It is scary. I don't know why we fight like that. We don't hate each other that much.

But sometimes we just lose our minds and when our minds come back we are all sweaty and one of us is bleeding. Last night, though, poor Daddy got hurt. There was blood everywhere. Blech. And I got a big bunch of fur yanked out and it hurts. And Bailey ouched her paw.

So now we have to get some super emergency help from Miss Sherri on how to manage our behavior. And Dr. Hawkins said that we can call her anytime if we need help, too. Dr. Hall is having Bailey take medicine to help her ouchy hips and make her not so "hot". She's a hot devil dog.

It's a very good thing that we have Miss Sherri and Dr. Hawkins and Dr. Hall to help us out. Otherwise Bailey would be on a bus to the pound and probably end up having to take a long sleep. You know what that means.

Except Mommy and Daddy think that Bailey is not bad. She just has a hard time understanding what to do when she gets mad. Plus she has ouchy hips, so if you touch her sometimes she gets growly. Most families would not put up with a naughty dog like that. But our family has a lot of time to help a dog like Bailey, even if it costs fortyleventeen million dollars and makes us broke and tired.

Bailey told me she is very worried that Mommy is going to leave her again, like she did when me and  Mommy went to BlogPaws. And that makes her very stressed all the time. Bailey said she doesn't want to be bad but something happens in her noggin and she can't help it.

So we are going to try and help Bailey not be a devil dog and me not to fight back when Bailey gets so mad at me. And we also have to wait on poor Daddy with his hurt paw. Plus, Bailey will probably get a visit from the dog police and have to be under house arrest for a seventyleven days.

There has been a lot of crying and ouching and bleeding going on over here this week and it's only Monday.

Your pal
Bandit

Mommy is going to BarkWorld without me

Mommy is going to BarkWorld and there will be a doggy wedding. Barf.


Mommy told me today that she is going to a place called BarkWorld and I am not going.

Boo on that, Mommy.

Me and Mommy had lots of good fun when we went to BlogPaws so I don't know why I can't go to this adventure with her.

Mommy says she would lovelovelove to have me come. But she says I cannot ride in a plane unless they let me sit on a seat with her or ride up with the pilot. She says it is not good for a dog to ride with the suitcases because it is loud and scary and not a good dog environment. Whatever that means.

So I said, No problem! Let's take the dogmobile! But she said she can't afford eleventyseven thousand dollars to make sure the dogmobile will get us from Rochester to Georgia and back. So she is going to fly by herself on a plane to BarkWorld and share a room with Henrietta's mommy.

I have to stay home with my brother Scout and our stupid sister Bailey who poops in the house and howls at the fire trucks and fights with us until we bleed and hogs the bed and snores.

Mommy says that when she is at BarkWorld she is going to a doggy wedding where a dog named Stedman will marry a dog named Phoenix. Blech. They are probably going to kiss each other. Barf.

AND I found out that Mommy is going to a people wedding in November and I am not invited to that, either. There will probably be kissing there, too.

So boo on weddings and boo on trips without me and boo on having to stay home with my stupid sister.

It is a boo kind of day.

Love, your not happy pal,
BANDIT

Dairy Queen has kitties in bubbles!

Look at this silly man! He can blow bubbles with kitties inside! Scout likes to chase bubbles. I think he would really like to chase kitty bubbles. Do you know where we can buy some kitties in the bubbles fluid?

Bailey is a wild bathtub puppy (video)

Us dogs went outside to play today and Bailey got really muddy and dirty. It is tough work getting dirty. It can make a dog thirsty. So when Bailey went in the house, guess where she went to get a drink?

The bathtub!

Mommy heard her barking and went upstairs and Bailey was in the tub saying, Turn on some water, Mommy, I need a drink!

I tried to tell her, Get out now, Bailey, before Mommy gets out the stinky shampoo and bubbles you up and drowns your eyeballs with the shower hose!

 But Bailey said, Go away, Bandit, or I will bite off your nose.

Bailey is being a wild animal today. She pooped in the house and she is being very mean to me. I think Mommy should take her to the zoo and trade her for a monkey.

Love,
BANDIT!!!

Bailey learns how to use the computer

Bailey has been learning how to type on the computer. Maybe we will write a book together some day! It will be called "How to steal stuff off the counters and blame it on the cat."

You could be the next Owney the Postal Dog!

Mommy just entered me into a contest to be the next Owney the Postal Dog.

Owney was a super special dog who used to travel with the mail on the railways. He had lots of adventures! And the Smithsonian National Postal Museum and Washington Humane Society are searching for the dog who could be a modern Owney.

I think they want a dog that looks like Owney. But I like to travel so maybe they will consider me, too!\

Actually, the winner will get an iPad, which I think would make it much easier for me to blog when me and Mommy have more travel adventures.

You can check out my entry here, or you can find out more on the contest Facebook page!

Your pal,
BANDIT!!!!
