Sedona AZ (September 29, 2015) – It seems like forevah since we last chatted. But ya know what, Uncle Abe sent me a sweet thing to share. We hope you will agree.

In the meantime, life goes on and Mom says probly the hot weather stuff is behind. Sure do hope so, but that means I won’t be able to sleep by the open slider in the bedroom, waiting for that bobcat to come try to get me agin! Ha – didn’t skeer me, but shook Mom out of her sheets!

harley mcguire old dogTwo of my bestest friends are going to be moving away from us come the middle of November. You know them, my pals Outlaw and Zia. They’ze the ones that ran off that one time and we were all ever so fearful they’d meet up with harm’s way but the dickenzes returned home after hours of scoutin’ the forest. Well, soon they will be moving on, and Mom and I are sad.

It’s very fun for me when we walk in the mornings if we meet up with our buddies. The other day was really, really neato cuz we saw Santo the Great Pyrenees, Amadahy (if that’s how ya spell it) the beautiful Collie, and my Boxer buds, Zia and Outlaw. Fer sure I was the runt in that gang. But cha know? Didn’t bother me one bit cuz I loves all doggies – long as they don’t come after me.

Outlaw and Zia

Outlaw and Zia moving on!

My pals Laurel, Hardy, and Skipper weren’t out that morning else I wouldn’t have been the only pint-size in the crowd.

Mom’s being sneaky and I think somethin’s cookin’ that ain’t good. Herd her tell someone on the phone ‘bout a trip to that “vet” in Cornville and I couldn’t have my morning treet! Me smells a rat like teeth-cleaning time! Yikes!

Anyways, that’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it. Hope all’s well in your world of love and joy with your forever humans.

And so my Publisher will kindly add the message from Uncle Abe so’s you can think about it some.

  1. Thank you Harley for reminding people not to get rid of us because we are getting old. We love our human parents unconditionally and will do so till the day we cross the rainbow bridge. Thank you for sharing!

  2. Howdy Dominic, Hudson and Inoch. We are sooo lucky to have forever homes and we hope that nevah changes. But cha know, sometimes stuff happens that makes it impossible and our people-parents have to make choices for what’s best for us. And that sadly doesn’t always mean we can stay with them for all of our lives. When that is the case what we want is for them to find someone else that will love and care for us til death do us part.

    Anyways, glad you picked up on the message and picture from Uncle Abe. Do you happen to know who he is?

    Lovingly,
    Harley McGuire

  3. You are so right, Harley! By the way, Uncle Abe is our loving dad and we love him to pieces…

  4. Luv to ya Harley McGuire! Hate them bobcats and snakes too, they don’t like us fish.

  5. What, Dominic, Hudson and Inoch? Uncle Abe is your dad? Well then, does that mean we’re cousins.:-) Oh happy day!

    Torch & Mulligan, I do believe you’re my first fish fan! Oh happy day!

    Lovingly,
    Harley McGuire

  6. Always good to hear from ya, Harley darling, no matter how long we haffa wait. All’s well on the home front here in LA, but for the fact that Clyde has been eating most of my wet food lately as I’m just not ready to eat when he does. So I let it sit around and then he just gobbles it all up. Well, now I’ve lost about a pound or two and Mom’s kind of upset at that. So instead, she’s been calling me “Bony” instead of my given name of Bonnie. Good thing I don’t understand English too well, otherwise, I’d be embarrassed. Do you have any advice, dearest Harley?

    Happy writing.

    Hugs and hisses – C’n D lov’n the beach life in CA!!!

    Hi Harley McGuire.

    It’s grrr-ate to know you’re still alive and hope you’re up for the trip to the doggie-dentist. Let us know when your pearly-whites are polished and keep that jaw connected!

    Seems like an awful lot of your pals have moved away. How come?

    Your pal, Buster

  9. Mojo & Nikki says:

    It’s great to have so many friends, even if they are not close by. We don’t know what we would do if we ever got separated. We are forever playin’ pals. We’re always kissin’ & lickin’ each other….we are sooooooooo lucky! Keep your “moments” coming. Love reading them…oh, you didn’t know? We CAN read. We just keep it a secret.
    Love ya’,
    your pals, Nikki & Mojo

  10. Firstly thanks to all my loyal supporters – Bonnie & Clyde, Chip’n Dale, Buster, Mojo & Nikki and, of course, Dominic, Hudson, Inoch and the new little names, Torch & Mulligan.

    I’m happy to report my dental work went very well as did the removal of the lump of something on my side. Now I gets to wear a sweet T-Shirt and it says “Handle With Love.” But, of course, that’s the only way, and ya see the shirt keeps me from lickin’ and scratchin’ at itchy stitches.

    Now then, Mom was all bothered ’bout not givin’ me my morning treets. But ya know what? Whatever they gave me at the vet place – well, home treets don’t hold a candle to that stuff. Mom’s telling it that I came home pie-eyed whatever that means. It must be good cuz I heerd her also say she’d like to have a dose of that stuff herself.

    My teeth are spic and span (what’s left of them cuz many were yanked during the wired jaw event). So it was a trip and a half but my pie-eyes are finally uncrossing.

    Now then, Bonnie & Clyde. How ’bout switching the game for one time and you, Bonnie, chow down on all Clyde’s food and see how he likes it? Or maybe your mom could feed you at a different time when you are hungrier? No fair that he gets fat and you waste away.

    That’s it for now.

    Lovingly,
    Harley McGuire

  11. Martha says:

    Always great to read of your adventures and your many pals. Glad your teeth are all spic and span and your lump is gone after some medication that made you pie eyed. I’m with your Mom in that I believe I would enjoy a bit of what you were given. :-)
