THE CHOCOLATE DOG BLOG

Hi everyone, sorry I was working for a few days and did not get to the blog. So what is new with Bosco you must be wondering?

The Boss has been having a lot of time to himself the last few days to reflect and to look ahead to the future. I am sure it was a good time for him to get everything in his life in balance. Who am I kidding he just slept and chewed on his toys counting the minutes til someone got home.
I guess he had a lot of fun yesterday because there were a bunch of other dogs over at the baseball diamond where we take him. Bosco likes to play with other dogs and it helps him work off all his energy before a nice evening nap.
It is a cold one today in Halifax so we will be going for a walk soon. I am sure Bosco will like it a lot more than I will.
If you notice some new posts that are kind of out of left field and weird it is because I am trying out some pay per posts from a few sites where they give you a website to promote and write about. I have my first one so that will be going up today. Bosco has to eat haha!
I hope everyone and their dogs are doing well and I love hearing from you all. Have a great day.

Just a quick check in today as it is a day for relaxing. Just got back from walking the chocolate dog,not too far because I was full from brunch. Bosco is currently upstairs enjoying a treat to make up for his short walk. I put some PB in his kong and he just loves that. Should keep him occupied for a bit.

Last night Bosco got some bonus fun to as we had some friends over after being out for dinner. Bosco loves company and of course got a lot of extra attention. I think he slept good last night thats for sure.

Mercy is emjoying the peace and quiet as he just came over to visit me as I type this.

Speaking of Mercy, him and Bosco have started playing a new game, sort of like what is known as playing chicken. You know when two cars or whatever speed towards each other and then one moves at the last second.

Mercy has this habit of waiting in Bosco's path as he charges to dinner or a treat and Bosco usually always moves at the last second. Mercy has nerves of steel or just knows Bosco is a big chocolate chicken.

Well yesterday it finally happened when Bosco actually did not stop and ploughed right through Mercy. It was pretty funny to see and I think from now on Mercy will think twice about standing in Bosco's way.

Liberal MP Belinda Stronach has demanded an apology from Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay following allegations he referred to her as a dog in the House of Commons.

"For that kind of comment to be made is just plain unacceptable," Stronach told reporters Friday. "I expect an apology for that."

I had to explain to Bosco that this is in fact a bad thing and people should not be calling each other dogs. Bosco was confused because he is called a dog many times a day and it has never bothered him.

Bosco thinks that being called a dumb or bad dog is something worth getting mad at however.

Good day everyone how is it in your part of the world? Today in Halifax it is cold and rainy so that made for a short walk today. Just enough for Bosco to do his business.

Things are getting back to normal over here at the Chocolate Dog Blog. There have been a lot of changes over the last little while and I am glad you all stuck around to see the outcome.

I have been doing some work on the site to make it look nicer and I hope people are enjoying that. Bosco is a demanding guy and wants the best for his readers. I have to keep that in mind when making changes because I do not want the brown boy to be mad at me.

Things are pretty normal these days. Daily walks, naps, all the usual stuff for Bosco. It can't be road trips to PEI all the time now can it. I do not think he minds as long as he gets a lot of attention and the odd treat.

Anyways I am going to take off for now but have a super day and keep those comments coming.

I was in a conversation the other day and the subject came up about how much is a dog worth??

Would you trade you best friend for cash??

If someone offered you 100 thousand dollars for your dog, would you trade??

I would love to hear what people think.

Don't worry Bosco you are far too valuable to get nervous!

SO what did Bosco get up to this weekend? As you can imagine not too much since I was working everyday.

Lets see he ate, slept, went for walks, slept, played with his toys, ate snacks, went for more walks and slept some more. Pretty typical in the land of labs.

Took him for an extra long romp today at the baseball diamond, you know to work off thw weekend rust. He is sleeping and exhausted right now.

very little happening in the land of Bosco that is for sure, no news is good news I guess.

I am enjoying the new look and the new blogger bata thingy. I hope everyone is having a good Monday.

I guess I should of noted what was in the big tub in the pictures. It used to be filled with yummy milkbone treats. I usually break them into three pieces, so that is why it lasted so long. Gotta keep the Bosco nice and trim. All lab owners know how much they like to eat if given the chance.

Bosco is having a quiet weekend at home with Katie as I am working all weekend. I am sure he can use a laid back at home weekend after last weekend.

On the Mercy front, the farm as we call them are getting to be much closer friends. They have a new routine when Bosco is eating his morning meal. Bosco eats and drinks (while wagging his tail) and Mercy will walk under Bosco back and forth. It is funny because when the cat's tail hits Bosco's tummy it appears to tickle as Bosco will move. I have termed this as driving under the overpass. I will try and get a picture of it some day.

Just wanted to check in since it has been a few days. Bosco is well and living a life of a lab to the fullest. He is eager for the trip we are taking him on this weekend to PEI. I hope everyone is well and I really need to get more on this blog soon haha. I switched over to the new blogger beta today so maybe that will fix my comments! How is everyone else doing these days?
