Lassie was a Shih Tzu... really!!!!


I shihtzu you not... this kid is Lassie in real life... I first noticed it when she would come up to me and kinda whine like a talky kinda whine and then run to the back door... "OK girl, what is it? you wanna go pee?" and off she'd go.. do her business and come back in like a good little girl.

Then things got a little more complicated... she'd come and jump up at my knees with the whiney thing going on but instead of running to the back door she'd head for the girls rooms...OK girl what is it now? have the girls fallen down a well? are they in trouble? oh nooo... you just want to lick them cos it's time to get up and ready for school... thanks girl if it wasn't for you they'd be late every day!!!".

Then there's the mystery of the missing collar, we get home one evening and start petting the dogs as soon as we get in the door... uh oh... where is little Lassie's collar??? man it must have come off somewhere??? but where... we hunt high and low glance around the room and don't see it.  Three days later... I'm sitting at my computer spewing literary delights when here she comes.. she's so excited.. she's whinnying and whining and just cock-a-hoot with excitement.. I say.. "OK girl, do you need to crap outside? have the girls fallen off a cliff in the bathroom? is Mac on his way to Mars having been abducted by aliens???" She's jumping up to my newly shaved calf muscles flab... and she's just squealing with delight... I follow her in anticipation of something fantastic... and I see it.. there in the middle of the floor... a floor I just crossed but a minute ago without encountering any obstacles... her collar.. or should I say.  GASP!!!! half a collar!!!!!!!!!!! WTF happened here Lassie... who the hell chewed on your freakin' Gucci collar and ruined the damn thing forevah?

Well, never mind, thanks for grassing on your brother... I'll get right on Ebay and blow our tax refund on a new glitzy collar for you.. cos I know one day you'll save the lives of me, the girls and his gorgeousness cos you're one smart little shih tzu!!!! (even if Daddy does think you're a dumb shit zoo).

I love you Lassie Daisy, I'm calling Ari Gold right now to see if there are any parts in Hollywood for you. Just remember who's your mama!!!

Hello fellow Mid-Life Momma. :) Thank you for commenting on my blog the other day. I like yours too. I have two grown kids (one has served in Iraq), and two young children in the home. There's a 12 year gap between the two sets of kids! lol What was I thinking?! :)
