POSHTON THECAT HERE

Oh ya..sure you are...protecting the perimeter my furry butt....she is such a chicken she covers her face with the pillow in case the bad guys get her....
The GReat Poshton...19 yrs young

I know cats arent allowed in here, but I thought i would put to rest one of the lies that my annoying sister has been saying about her job of protecting this house....i have caught her in action....protecting the perimeter...meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeoooooos...hahahahha.

THANKS TO ALL MY DAWGY BUDDIES

Just what is inside that thing anyhow
My beach and Dallas road
My new little buddy at the park..i had to take him to his dad...and his dad said i was a good BOY....stupid

SO FIRSTof all I would like to thank all my "dawgs" for helping me in my desperate hours. I may have been a weeeeee bit dramatic.....but being alone all day brings out the worst in me. Poor me. Anyhow I would like to tell you I have decided to give mom one more chance. Afterall dad will be home in a week...and I am pretty sure there will be presents for me...yey for me...and ya, I kinda like mom. She spoils me most of the time...and we did get to go to the park today...and i did get walks besides that. Then when mom went to work tonight...my brother was home, so we both napped....well actually..i never nap when mom isnt home...i just watch things around the house..to make sure nobody breaks the perimeter of our mansion.....I do a good job too...just ask my mommy...sometimes i get very tired...but i pace until she gets home...anyhow everyone that said i can live with them....sorry to dissappoint you...but i guess i better stay here and keep this place safe....and thanks again for everything......
I'm in a bad mood. Don't look at me.
so ...does anybody here want to adopt an adorable cuddly sweet smart obedient...well you get the picture....6 year old pittbull cross who goes by the name of Mary Jane Potter. I need parents who love me. Parents who feed me when i need food. Parents who take me out the second i want (i mean need) to go out. Parents that are so wealthy that they don't have to work and leave there precious beautiful smart cuddly obedient pittbull cross puppy at home for 6 hours 8 minutes and 43 seconds. (not that i checked)..Please get me out of here...I am cross, cross, cross...(i always wondered why they called me a pitt bull cross..hmm..now i know..) So all you rich home dwelling humans who need a good dog....(no vegetarians please....i do like the t-bones...no offence...) call me...or email me. Oh OH here comes mom gotta go.......MJ Out...

People are so Stupid sometimes

I used to have a German Shepherd. I was buying a large bag of Purina at the store and was in line to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog. Dah!
On impulse, I told her no, I was starting The Purina Diet again. Although I probably shouldn't because I'd ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive-care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet; and that the way it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete, so I was going to try it again.
Horrified, she asked if I'd ended up in the hospital because I'd been poisoned.
I told her no; I'd been sitting in the street licking my balls and a car hit me.

No News Just a Fun Story

Life is simple. It is us HUMANS that make it hard.This is a simple but very wise message - Enjoy
THIS IS SOME GOOD ADVICE! If a dog was the teacher, you would learn stuff like: When loved ones come home, always run to greet them. Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride. Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy. When it's in your best interest, practice obedience.
Let others know when they've invaded your territory.
Take naps. Stretch before rising. Run, romp, and play daily. Thrive on attention and let people touch you. Avoid biting when a simple growl will do. On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass. On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree. When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body. No matter how often you're scolded, don't buy into the guilt thing and pout..! run right back and make friends. Delight in the simple joy of a long walk. Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Stop when you have had enough. Be loyal. Never pretend to be something you're not. If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it. When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently. I AM THANKFUL FOR TOO MUCH E-MAIL BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE FRIENDS WHO ARE THINKING OF ME! SEND THIS TO PEOPLE YOU CARE ABOUT. . . I JUST DID

me and my buddah at the beach...hahahah

get the stick! throw the stick!get the stick!etc

ohoh...i got a little growly with these two today.

my brother me adn our biggggg biggg stick...he fetched....and i barked the orders this time.....

so today was different....i was excited to go back to my new favorite beach. The lagoon...and i was really excited cuz my friend Tim and my brother Rick came with me. I got to show them how fast I am in the water. Rick comes in the water with me so it is even more fun. Today i barked at him until he fetched a realllly big stick for me. Wow...he did a really good job. It was a nice slimey stick. I pulled it in a little bit, but I didnt want him to feel bad...so I didnt over do it. Rick was sitting like Buddah on a sand bar. After the beach we drove the guys to the gym. Then mom thought it wouls be a good idea to take me to Dallas road while we were down there. It was a good idea for about three minutes, then i got a little growly. My tummy was empty....and i wanted to go home. Mommy said she never seen me show my teeth and growl...so we went home for my dinner...yummy. Anyhow now it is the end of the day..I had a nice nap while mommy was at work. I have heard rumors flying that i will be home alone all day tomorrow. Hmmm..that doesnt sound good to me. Wish me welllll...MJ

ALL I CAN DO IS SHAKE MY PRETTY LITTLE HEAD

THE CAT DID IT , I TELL YOU

I WAS CURIOUS..CANT A GAL BE CURIOUS
SO my dad told my mom that I was getting lazy on my blog. Well it is so hot here it is difficult to sit on this chair and type much. Tonight it is cooling down a little bit. They say...whoever they are...that it is suppose to only be 22 tomorrow...all i know is the I am LOVING the idea of THEY right now.
Today was full of MJ ups and downs...Mommy left for work early and then...my brother had the nerve to leave too. FOR FOUR HOURS. So i was stuck here looking after things all by myself. I was very happy when Rick came home...I mean anything could have happened to him without me around to protect him...I cried joyfull cries when he got home...and i made it last. That boy knows now that he just should not go off without me...then when mom got home she rushed me off to saxe point for a dip in the old ocean. AAAAAAAHHHH so refreshing. There was another dog there...but he was afraid to go over his knees. OH MAN...i know what that is like...well back when I was a kid........never mind. some day he will be brave like me. Then we got home and my gramma was there. I was so excited I kissed her and kissed her...and she tasted so good....I think i licked off her white diamonds...poor gramma..that stuff cost alot of money...Then, much to my delight, mom told me to get in the car....and we drove to dallas road where i hit doggy dirt...Holy mother of dogs....there was doggy pawdemonium there...millions of dogs...every breed...it was so fun. We stayed for about an hour...nah..maybe a half hour...then we had to go home. So now we have a problem...you will see in the top picture that I seem to be in the middle of a mess....that mess is a white plastic hanger....well...while i was asleep minding my own busines...someone broke into the house and chewed up that hanger....and put it close to me to get me in trouble....WELL I tell you all....it was not me. I think it must have been our cat, Poshton...she thinks she is Houdini...she could put that man to shame...one minute you see her...the next she is gone...Mom thinks she is watching too much of the Mind Freak show...
Anyhow DAddy, and all my blog buddies....I am going to go and see if I can sniff out old posh again...she worries my mom. A dogs gotta do what a dogs gotta do...Hugs and Woofs to you all.......

my mom likes this picture...
this isnt me...but it would be ...if i had my own fan
mom cant delete so you get to see it twice
this is me and my buddy kurt...1 year ago..i miss him alot...
so hi everyone...sorry we have not new photos. Mom forgot to charge the batteries.....again. Geez sometimes she would forget me if i wasnt so on the ball. Today we started off later than usual. We went to flemings beach...and on the way...we got pulled over by the trailer park police. Man we didnt know we even had such a thing. I gave Mr Copper a piece of my mind so he let mom off with a smile. But he told her to please slow down. I told him ...in not so many woofs, that we cant slow down...I need to get to the beach, stat. He didnt seem to care...so mom slowed down...alot. We could have walked faster. Mom said he didnt look anything like the police guy on trailer park boys. anyhow we made it to the beach..............finally.......and my brother and i went down to the water while lazy mom sat up top and watched us. Rick kept throwing big sticks for me to go and get. Again....why the heck do they do this...and worst yet, why do i do it. Anyhow i swam out miles and miles to retreive his dang sticks....then finally we ended the swims and finished our walks. It was a nice quiet walk...no dogs around..just me...it was like I had my own private dog park. A girl could get used to that. So then mom went to work and i was stuck home alone....but when she got home I let her have it.....man did I whine like a tiny little puppy....well until Bear came to the door for a cookie...he barked at me...i think he told me to suck it up and shut up...so I did...and mom took me to the Gorge. It is a beautiful night. I hope everyone is okay. Daddy I love you...cant wait till you get home.

Here we go again

this is me resting after playing with Opal
God I am soooooooooo cute...about 2or 3 months
me and my cat sister....she musta been drunk
opal transferring white rocks...she is a rock hound

so here I am after a couple days off. It has been a quiet few days. Except my human sister sarah had a party here on the weekend..there was some ungodly noise coming out of a box in the living room..I thought someone was stepping on the cat...but they were doing something called kareoke. Friends, if you see one of those machines come into your house...run like heck...they should call it karapuke...cuz that is what I wanted to do.
During the day saturday Opal, a 2 year old white lab friend, came over and was obsessed with moving around our white rocks...she was putting them from one side of the yard to the other. It was just exhausting watching her. I just ended up napping on the steps. So sunday was mostly a sleep day for me. Today mom took me to Dallas road to play for a bit. For a long time i was play wresting with my new little girl buddy. lady henderson. She is 4 months old..and a bull dog. We had so much fun, but the little girl tired me out. I am six now you konw. It was my birthday yesterday. Today I got a birthday card from my human boyfriend, Michael. I love him, and I also got a bumper sticker from my favorite blog buddy Opy. I will have mommy put it on my limo. Nto too much is going on. I think mom said tomorrow we might go to Flemming beach again...or out to a new place. I cant wait. You all have a good day...and take a look at my baby photos. God i am cute...Have a good week everyone....keep on bloggin....woooooooooooooooof...

MJ the Referee

baby boxer...riley and MJ
Irish wolf hound INka...and baby charpei
pile of puppy love
Inka and sharpei puppy
Hello, MJ the referree here. Guess who had to break up fights, two days in a row...at the dallas park? MJ Potter ....me, moi, ! I guess I am just the voice of reason. You should have seen it...yesterday it was a rotti and a shepherd....the shepherd's daddy was very angry. But I broke it up...I said Fellas...mellow out....be peaceful...and they were. Then today, there was a sharpei puppy and a puppy that looks kinda like me,(a very good looking little guy named Bucket) the sharpei had him cornered under a park bench...and he snapped...and i had to go and break things up. I am going to find a whistle to tie around my neck...and maybe a striped shirt.
Otherwise things are alright...sometimes Mommy is very crabby lately. She wants me to go for walks cuz it sometimes mellows her out. We will see. I am missing my daddy, he will be home in 23 days. Mom said maybe he will bring me a present. I like presents. (so does mom.) Anyhow I am going to go now...sorry this isnt very exciting but our days have been rather low key. I will talk to you soon.....MJ

I AM A CLIFFDIVER EXTRAORDINAIRE

HEY THERE EVERYONE..TODAY STARTED OUT WIERD...MY HUMAN SISTER SARAH WAS CLIMBING ON COUNTERS AND BEING ALL WIERD...SHE SAID THERE WERE GIANT DUST BUNNIES UP ON TOP OF ALL THE CUPBOARDS. I WAS SO EXCITED...I WANTED TO GET UP AND HELP...BUT MOM SAID WE HAD TO GET OUT OF THERE...SARAH WAS DRIVING HER NUTS...Anyhow so we headed down to Flemings beach. It was really quiet at first...nice for a mommy and pitbull kinda stroll. But on the way back...just before it was time to get in the car.....SCORE......dogs dogs dogs. Life is good. I met this cool bouvier/lab X and he was jumping off the rocks and into the water. It looked a wee bit scary but I knew I could do it....Mom kept telling me to jump....and finally I did..I tell you all...it must have been a 40 foot drop into the ocean. (read editors notes ) I jumped and swam the mile or so to shore. (again...read editors notes.) then the other girl jumped again...and so did I . I was INCREDIBLE. Finally mom told me it was time to go home. I was ready at this point....until two more border collies showed up. we ran and jumped and ran and jumped....it was so fun. It is kinda cool today so I didn't get as tired as normal . Mom kept calling me to come with her...but sometimes I pretend not to hear. Finally she came and leashed me up. Party pooper. Then we went home...I was excited to see what had become of the giant dust bunnies..ALL FREAKIN GONE....THAT GIRL IS GOING TO DRIVE US NUTS.
Time to go to bed now. Have a good night.

editors note....40 foot drop....maybe actually 1 foot
1 mile swim....maybe 200 metres.

Crazy freakin Humans





Okay so today mom was doing her best to torture me...We got up early and went to the beach. That part was fun. I went down to the water with a big hairball....but then....on the way home she noticed that a sea gull pooped on her car....(big whoop) and decided to take me through this torture chamber...it was the most frightening thing ever...water was attacking us at all sides...then this big foam monster put its guts all over the windows....then...worst of all....a big huge vacuum, noisy vacuum, sucked all the water off us...all i can say is that if i never go through a carwash again....it will be too soon. Mom then took me for a little wee walk....and she left to go to a birthday party all day. As soon as she got home I jumped in the car and off we went again...to the doggy park...we saw lots of horses tonight...(not big dogs....they call them horses...and they work very hard and pull people around all day) So now I am grovelling at my moms feet so she will give me some food. I will get it, it is just a matter of time...I am hoping she will give me the end of her milkshake. Oh mom told me that Bruce got a funny dog for his birthday ...it digs and barks and farts....the funny part is that it has no head. wierd...my buddy Maggie didnt like it at all..It made her bark. If i was there I would have helped Maggie. They should have taken me. But mom said it was way too hot out for me. So i am going to be greatful. Time for me to send some photos and go to bed. Goodnight everyone...and happy birthday Brucie.

Those waskely wabbits....

I just got back from the beach, and don't mind telling all my faithfull readers that I am a WEE bit iritated with my mother. She is making me crazy. We were down at the beach and I saw this small furry thing run. Well I charged after it....with mom in tow...(i wish she would have let go of the dang leash....it would have been much easier)..anyhow all of a sudden it was gone. (Imagine if you will my big sad puppy dog eyes)..anyhow as we were walking towards the car...I kept my nose to the ground and sniffed something different...then i looked...and to my right, about this far from my enemy sniffing nose (my paws are about six inches apart)...was a wascally wabbit....it was just sitting there . It knew the old lady (sorry mom I had to use those words for effect) wouldn't let me get it. So...there it sat ...smirking...like the smug little furball that it was. And there was me moping all the way home.. Tonight I will dream about what could have been...sorry no pictures. Goodnight. Opy thanks for your comment. My daddy is in the navy. I am sure he would have let me get the bunny. He would have helped me....grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

wow, I had a busy day at the doggy park today. So many different dogs to play with. The Danes were much quieter today so I was not afraid of them. There were lots of people at the beach with giant kites...they were pretty, mom said I was very brave. I used to be afraid of kites. I think I might still be afraid of hot air balloons...I havent seen one since I moved to BC. At lunch time mom took me out to saxe point...and I was a little bad...she didnt want me to go in the water cuz she had to hurry to get back to work...but it was so hot...(It was not MJ) like I said, it was so hot that I needed to go for a nice long swim. Then I came home and slept until my brother got home. It isnt so bad being home alone when mom comes at lunch. Anyhow if you are reading this daddy, I miss you. Are youi coming home soon? Gramma are you feeling better? Time for me to go...I need to get some beauty sleep.
