Yard Work

My humans' family flew in for the Thanksgiving holiday and during this time is eating and fun she decided to put them and everyone else to work. She's such a mean human.

I would like to say I helped out with this project too but in reality I spent most of the day in the kennel. I was only allowed out when they were about done and wow was I surprised. The yard had been all scooped up and moved around and laid back down. The humans didn't think it looked like much had changed but according to my sense of smell the world had been turned up side down. I simply didn't know where to pee! I had a pee spot or two and they were well marked, now the smell was everywhere and nowhere at the same time.

I also smelled all the up turned dirt, the peoples sweat and lots of tools. I think the whole neighborhood had been in the yard while I was in the kennel. So many people, so much petting and loving I messed out on.

Not only was my humans' family out there working but so were many of the neighbors and their kids. Even a sweet five to six year old boy came along to help. My human was so happy to see so many people come to help. She made sure they all had drinks (mostly water and Gatorade, but some soda too) and sandwiches. The younger helpers were paid for their time and efforts as well.

I must say the yard looks good. In fact it looks like it did when I first came to live here. Maybe this time I'll let it stay this way.
