Trip to the mountain

Hi y'all,
I don't even remember the last time I posted here. But here I am again.
This time mom and I are in a place I never been before. I don't think mom
has either. Think she said it was called Arkansas.
We got on one of those plane things to get here and we've been here for
almost a week now.
The lady we visitin' lives on top of a mountain. I ain't kiddin' either we
drove up and up to get to it. The only real significant thing I've noticed
here, is the dogs are aloud to just run loose. I mean no leashes or fences
or nothin'! They do have collars, but they get to just rome the mountain.
Boy would that be sweet! I think mom should retire me here for that reason
alone and I'd live out my days bein' a mountain dog. The first two dogs I
met, I thought they were gunna kill me! The first dog, her name is Abby. She
came out of no where when I was tryin' to relieve myself. Hello! A little
busy here! She was all up in my grill and stuff! Leave me alone! I was nice
though, I tolerated her obnoctious behavior. Well then, here comes another
dog! These dogs are both german shepherds by the way. So as soon as the male
comes on the scene, his name was Archy, Abby goes nuts. I mean she starts
bad mouthin' me sayin' I better stay away from her brother or else or some
such nonsense. Well shoot I ain't puttin' up with that! I just endured her
uncalled for lack of boundaries. No respect at all! And now she has the
nerve to turn on me and give me that garbage. No way. Unbelievable! So I let
her have it! You picked the wrong dog to mess with fool! I don't care if you
are a huge shepherd who's more than twice my size. Well after that, this dog
literally would camp outside the door where we're staying waitin' for me.
Archy was cool. Shoot he didn't know what was goin' on.
Now as I write this, Abby Archy and I now get along pretty well. She still
has no respect for personal boundaries. And I thought Matilda was bad. O my
goodness. And they make fun of me sayin' I'm a city dog and I don't know
what bein' a real dog is. Whatever.
I met another dog named Bailey. She cool too. She looks a lot like me. She
shouted at me for comin' in her house though. Well excuse the nylabone out
of me! I've had a rough day with those two block headed shepherds, I don't
need your mouth too. Shoot dogs rude here!
The activities I been doin' the rest of the time have involved lots of kids.
Just yesterday for example, mom spoke to several groups of kids all about me
and what I do for her. Yeh that's right ma, appreciate what I do for you I
mean it. She was proud of me too. It was a long day for both of us. I think
we did probably four presentations. We of course went to church, o yeh there
we did another presentation so that's 5. After that many I was so tired of
all the attention! I got home and hid for over an hour! We went to the mall,
and out to eat a few times, those are normal things though. The coolest part
about doin' the presentations yesterday, the kids found out I like apples.
Shoot I got 3 apples in one day! I was lovin' that! I get a lot of apples
here. Emily, the lady we're stayin' with, she gives me apples a lot too.
Score for Reba!
If it weren't for the mountain dogs makin' fun of me for bein' a city dog I
might wanna live here. I don't know what else we be doin' this week, or even
when we be goin' home. I'll try and come back with another update soon.
Oh, and on a sad note, I had to say goodbye to a very good friend a few
weeks ago. Dasher, my friend and leader for these last 7 and a half years
left us just a couple weeks ago. He had cancer. I will miss him a lot. It's
just Winston and I holdin' down the fort, and I'm now officially alpha. I
only hope I can do half as well as Dasher did.
Y'all behave, o and by the way, tomorrow is national give presents to Reba
day. I'll be 9 this year and you know what that means? I get 9 of
everything. I want 9 carrots, 9 apples, 9 duckies, 9 ice cubes, and 9 of any
other food item you can give me! I mean it! Shoot!
Reba the dog.
P.S. Since mom's lame and couldn't get this to actually post when I wrote
it, it's 5 extra treats per day. So that means, 15 more treats please!
