I know a jack russell terrier that loves to swim in lakes. He waits patiently, but with an intense "can I go now, please, please, please, can I go now" look in his eye until he's told to go long. He flies down the hill, races across the dock, and takes a flying leap into the lake. he swims around until mom or dad tells him he has to get out (sometimes he has to be told more than once, but only because he's having so much fun). Being a white dog living on a clay beach makes for a big mess, so he learned how to climb the ladder back onto the dock.

Last night, instead of reading him a story, we read all your kind posts to Woody. He listened, with little reaction, and crawled under the covers. When I peaked under the covers, he had a big smile on his face. Thanks.

I am so happy to hear Woody is happy.

LucieV May 21st, 2007 01:27 PM

When you peaked under the covers, of course Woody smiled. The question is, was Woody peeking when you peaked?

Woody is a Bichon, not a wiener dog.

LucieV May 21st, 2007 01:47 PM

Are you dissing wieners?

LucieV, Apparently not as homonymble as I once was, I am humbled. You are a careful reader. I don't deserve such a good boy.

LucieV May 22nd, 2007 09:52 AM

Yes, you do, of course you do. He's a good boy, and you're a good boy, too.

Now, because you're both good boys, (& because you can create words like homonymble,) get him a nice wetsuit; those lakes are cold.

Homonymble...oh, you are a good boy! Woody is in the right place.

LucieV and Kealalani: What a disaster. We got Woody a wetsuit. The fit was good, but when we tried it in the pool, he couldn't move. It seems that in his wetsuit, Woody is a good buoy.

Kealalani May 30th, 2007 08:48 AM

Cleanup on aisle9!!! I just took out a perfectly nice keyboard picturing WoodyBuoy! Laughing my akahine off.......

LucieV May 30th, 2007 10:16 AM

I was so pleased to see a current report on Woody. He's such a good boy. I like to hear of his latest adventures. By the way, does he enjoy car rides?

If Woody needs a girlfriend, we can meet you in Milw. Our girls are fixed so he won't need to use protection. I'm sure Peaches and Lily would melt his heart.They're Bichons too...

woodysagoodboy Jun 4th, 2007 10:16 AM

k, It sounds as if Lily and Peaches are a couple of tarts. Woody is not some smoking jacket wearing, pipe smoking, coke snorting, porno music guy...he's more interested in dressing up as a cowboy, Superman, Santa, a bumble bee, an angel, or a flyfisherman...although, he's not nuts about hats or boots.

cmcfong Jun 4th, 2007 10:58 AM

A bumble bee? Woody, what the .... are you thinking?

cmcfong Jun 4th, 2007 10:59 AM

By the way, Woody, where's the photo? With or without boots..........

woodysagoodboy Jun 4th, 2007 11:22 AM

cmcfong, As you can well imagine, I have about a million pictures of the boy and a large digital album. This wealth of material is not helping me share my photos with Fodorites. Any help would be appreciated...I'm on a Mac.

cmcfong Jun 5th, 2007 01:08 PM

I suspected as much, Woody sounds quite photogenic. I am a technoninny but Degas has a suggestion

Check this out. Even I can do it, which is saying a lot.

Hope it works, curious minds need to see Woody!
