Momma went out This Afternoon and Came Home with Shopping Bags. She looked at me when she walked Into The Kitchen and told me that my Daddy is So Right when he says that Puppies Are Free But Everything Else Under The Sun Costs A Fortune.
In the big Shopping Bag there was a New Pillow for me. I got in Trouble last night because I kept Taking the Leopard Pillow from Momma's chair in the TV Room. Momma said No!No!No!No!No! over and over Again every time I pulled that pillow Down On The Floor. I sat there Watching Momma put the Leopard Pillow back on That Chair but when she Walked Out Of The Room I just pulled it Down Again. I lost Count of How Many Times I took that Leopard Pillow and Momma probably says It's A Good Thing that I know My Name Is Savannah because otherwise after Last Night I would think My Name is No!No!No!No!No!
Momma has forgotten that I had my Own Pillow but she put it In The Trash because she said it was Too Slobbery and Too Filled With Puppy Spit to even put In The Washing Machine and besides that my Puppy Teeth pulled out The Middle Seam of that Pillow and Momma said It's Easier to Buy Another Pillow at the Thrift Store than to Thread A Needle and then Find Time To Sew. When I had My Own Pillow I didn't touch Momma's Leopard Pillow. So now I have my Own Pillow but it's Different than The First Pillow. This New Pillow is Leopard because Momma said I must Like That Pattern to Keep Stealing Her Leopard Pillow. Well I can see Trouble ahead of Savannah with this New Pillow that Looks So Much like Momma's Old Pillow. I will have to be Very Careful not to confuse Momma's Leopard Pillow with Savannah's Leopard Pillow or else Momma is going to start with the No!No!No!No!No! all over Again.
Momma also went to a New Store In Town that sells Everything Under The Sun For Dogs And Cats. I now have a New Leash that Momma says is Hot Pink Velvet and Very Strong and it Matches My Little Pink Tag that has My Name and Momma's Phone Number on it. Momma said that when Daddy walks me he will use the Old Black Leash but when she walks me I will be wearing the Hot Pink Leash or the Peacock Blue Leash. Momma made it Clear that I am Not Allowed to Drag the Pink Leash or the Blue Leash in the Tall Grass because Heaven Only Knows What Animals were Out There Doing Heaven Only Knows What before me.
The New Store In Town also makes Fresh Baked Dog Biscuits and Momma brought home a Paper Sack filled with all Shapes and Sizes and Flavors of Biscuits for me. So far I have tasted the Bacon and the Cheese and the Pumpkin. Momma said that Pumpkin was a Strange Flavor for Dog Biscuits but being that Halloween Is Just Around The Corner she said that the Pumpkin was probably a Good Idea. Momma gave me Three Biscuits when she Got Home but I had to Sit! and Shake! before I got to Taste them. I don't want to Be Prissy but I've seen Momma put Daddy's dinner on that Little Table in the Breakfast Room and she doesn't ask him to Sit! and Shake! before he Gets To Eat. But maybe the Daddy Person is like The Cats who Were Here First and Can Do Whatever They Want.
Momma put my New Leash in the Pretty Box with my Other Lady-Like Accessories that she bought me so I can Look and Act like a City Dog instead of a Country Dog and she put the Fresh Baked Biscuits in a Glass Jar on the Kitchen Counter and Momma said we should just Burn The Receipt Before Daddy Sees It so he doesn't think she's Buying Everything Else Under The Sun For A Certain Puppy Who Knows Who She Is.
I got an Extra Special Biscuit today because I didn't Bark at Momma's Friend Cindy this morning when she walked Into The House. Cindy kept saying Hello Savannah Hello Savannah and I Recognized Her Voice from the Last Time she was Here and Momma said it was About Time that I was Learning Just Who Was Allowed In This House every week. Well I can see Trouble ahead for Savannah when Momma's friends keep Coming To Visit because they don't Wear The Same Clothes or even Look The Same Every Time. I am learning that when Momma Smiles at People when they Walk In The Door that's a Good Thing and I Don't Have To Bark. Momma says that All Puppies should have an On/Off Switch so when a Puppy Barks For Nothing she can be Turned Off.
I resisted the Puppy Urge to tell Momma that All Puppies probably wish that their People had an On/Off Switch so when they say No!No!No!No!No! all the time they can be Turned Off. But I don't think it works That Way with People anyway because They Were Here First and They Can Do Whatever They Want.
