Dear Terry, What a day! Happy Thanksgiving! Me and Mom got up early to get things started! You know today is the day we get to eat TURKEY!! Me and Penny both will get a plate with turkey and taters and gravy! Mom says if I'm good I might even get STUFFING. First thing we did was get things ready for the animals outside. We threw out the apples down into the yard for the deer, raccons and opssums and whoever else might like them. Then we made sure the birdies had food. Mom threw out some old bread and crackers for them too. Mom got the turkey going. I was right there by her side. Smells like a good one and it's not even cooked yet! Oh and Mom made some pumpkin pie rice pudding. I helped too. I got to lick the pumpkin spoon! Mom's going to make a pie too. Mom even set the table with all the breakables. I'm not allowed to touch those. Then after all that was done, Mom got my leash and said come on Fred! And guess what!? We went out in the snow to the park! We walked all around. We hadn't been able to go for walks since Mom was sick. She's OK now so we had a great time in all the snow. Big flakes coming down that I could catch on my tongue. But then it started snowing realllly hard so we called it quits and went back to the Jeep and got warmed up and headed home. Dad's sleeping. I can tell he is sick like Mom was. Mom has him all bundled up in the big blanket. I'm going to lay down with him to make sure he stays warm. He can't miss the big meal! Although...that could mean more turkey for me!! WOOF!

Dear Terry, Mom is feeling better today. Guess what we did! We went for a ride in the Jeep. Mom drove to the hamburger palace so I could get a sausage sandwich. Yummy! Then we had to get gas and as we were almost to the gas station, GUESS WHAT! I saw Santa!!! Oh yes I did! He had his red suit on and everything! I was so excited to see him that I stood up against the window and started barking at him! Mom saw him too! Santa waved at me so I barked back at him! Mom said he was having a pancake breakfast. I like pancakes. Mom said it was to help raise money so everyone can have a Christmas Present. I like presents too. Mom said I better get working on my list.
Love and Woofs, FredDog!
P.S. PennyCat here. Dear Santa, all Fred needs is a lump of coal. He still chases me. Better yet, give me the lump of coal and I can drop it on his head when he barks. I thought he was going to bark his feet off when he got back in the house today! Meow Meow, PennyCat

Dear Terry, Sorry it's been so long since I wrote to you. Mom's been so sick all week long. She's been coughing really bad and she went to the doctors two times! I've been worried. Dad left yesterday to be go on a trip with Pap and Grammy. Mom was supposed to go but she was too sick. Dad told me to take good care of her. I have been. I have stayed right by her side the whole entire week. When she gets cold I lay right down on top of her and we snuggle in the blankets together. When she goes to the bathroom, I sit outside the door and wait and then walk her back to the bed. I'm being real good too so she doesn't have to worry about me and PennyCat. PennyCat has been very watchful too. If I fall asleep PennyCat is there to keep an eye on things. Dad talked to me on the phone and told me to keep up the good work he would be home soon. Sometimes Mom sleeps so deep I can't tell if she is ok or not so I have to wake her up to make sure things are OK. I lick her face until she moves and then I let her go back to sleep. I haven't eaten too much since Mom's been sick. Mom's not eating too much either so I gave her my favorite pig ear. I put it right on her chest while she was sleeping so she would see it as soon as she woke up. Boy did I get some good pets for that! I think she is doing better today though. I wish she was all the way better though so we can play ball again.
Love and Woofs, FredDog!

Dear Terry, Did you see it did you see it??? I saw it! SNOW! Where was Mom?? I ran looking for her but then remembered she was at work. Where was Dad?? Asleep! I woke him up! That was no easy task let me tell you. All I could think of was SNOW!! I went flying though the house, PennyCat went running. She doesn't get exited about snow like I do! Dad said what's all the commotion about Fred! So I showed him SNOW! and he said, SNOW! I barked and barked at it. If Mom had been home I bet we would have gone out to play in it. When Mom got home I told her all about it. She said, Don't worry Fred, there will be plenty more snow that we can play in. Mom's always right so I know there is more snow coming soon! Woof!

Dear Steve, What a day for you! Mom said, take a minute Fred and think of Steve and the work he did. I was a little confused at first because Mom said he was a Vet. I thought V-E-T, like an animal doctor. I was thinking, maybe I didn't know that Steve so good. Mom saw how worried I was and said NO like a VETERAN. Well, that made all the difference! Why didn't Mom just say you are important! Dad said he's very proud to know that you had served. Next time I see you I'm going to give you lots of barks, wags, licks and kisses.
Thanks Steve! Lots of Love, FredDog
P.S. Penny Cat here. FredDog is a nut. Mom got him all wound up and worried when he thought she said the V word. I ran and hid again in case he foamed at the mouth. Luckily, Mom nipped that in the bud and got his goofy butt calmed down so I could come out again. Why can't he be calm! Mom says it's because he is high strung. That must mean he's got a screw loose. I slept on his blanket and moved his toys again so that might have added to the unrest in his head....Meow Meow, PennyCat!

Dear Terry, What a weekend! Me and Mom did everything together! I helped a whole lot. We cleaned up the deck and put stuff away. I help with the giant tarp she put over everything. I barked at the birdies to keep them away while we worked. After all that hard work we took a big walk in the park. You would think I would be tired after all that but I wasn't! So me and Mom went to the Tractor Supply store and walked everywhere in the store we could. I watched a man at the chains. He was pulling a giant chain and it was piling up on the floor. Clink clink clink. I woofed at him so he knew I was watching. He scratched my ears for me! The people in line were really friendly to me too. Lots of pets from some kids. My tail was really wagging. I got free treats from Cashier Lady. And I waved bye - bye to everyone! Then I helped Mom make some dinner when we got home. Talked to Penny for a little bit. Enjoyed some time out on the deck. Then I don't know what happened. One minute I was watching TV in mom's lap, next thing I know I woke up a long time later! I must have zonked out. Mom had to wake me up to go outside before bedtime. Mom was limping because her leg was asleep. Sunday, me and Mom and Dad all cooked stuff in the kitchen. Penny wasn't around because I scared her by barking at her. Sometimes I just can't help myself! Then tonight when Mom got home, we went outside like always and guess what! The Neighbors were on their ROOF! They had flashlights and a string of lights. Christmas lights!! I barked and told them that Santa was in our basement! I like all the sparkly lights.
Hope you had a good weekend like we did!

Dear Terry, Did you see the snow yesterday?!! I ran and got Mom right away as soon as I heard the first flake fall! She was in the kitchen. I ran barking to tell her but she wasn't coming fast enough to see. I pawed at her leg. She hurried after me and we watched it snow out the front window together. What excitement that was! Me and Mom do almost everything together you know. Watching snowflakes is one of our favorite things to do! Sometimes we go out on the deck and look up in the sky and laugh as all the snow comes down on our heads. Mom did take me outside in the snow but I wasn't able to catch any snowflakes on my tongue. I tried too. Maybe next time. Mom said don't worry Freddie, there will be more snow coming for sure! I wonder when!?
Love and Woofs, FredDog

Dear Terry, I've been all mixed up this week. Sometimes Mom is here. Sometimes she leaves and comes back then leaves for work. Sometimes Dad leaves then comes back. I can't keep up! So I bark. And I've been kindof bad too. I bark a lot. And I made PennyCat all fluffy. Mom's been trying to help me to be good again. I got a new chew stick. I run and get that when I am really mixed up and chew and chew and chew. I think when I chew like that. Then I'm not so mixed up. And Mom's been teaching me the names of all my toys. Mom even sings the Name Game Song to me. Then we play ball. Last night I couldn't calm down though so I started chewing on my feet. Mom knew just what to do - she got some Snacks and I had to do my tricks and I forgot all about chewing on my foot. Then I ripped all the covers off the bed. What fun! FREDDDDDDD. oops. Mom was cold! Mom says things will settle down but I have to remain CALM. Easier said than done! Hope you aren't having a mixed up week like me!

Dear Terry, Yesterday I went Trick or Treating! Mom put my skeleton costume on me. I thought maybe she had forgotten about the bat ears but she didn't. Woof. Me and Mom and Dad all went to Grammy and Pap's house!! At first I couldn't find either one! I found Katie but still couldn't find them. I barked and barked. FINALLY Grammy came out and I ran right over barking to her. Me and Mom split a piece of bread. Mom was dipping it in soup Grammy was making. Yummy! Then Pap came in the room and I barked even more! After all the excitement, Me and Mom and Dad all went to the Car-Hop Burger Palace. Mom has to park backwards when we go there. That made Dad laugh a whole lot. Do you know that they make special burgers there JUST for dogs like me??? Mom got me one. What a good time! When we got home it was really cold so me and Dad laid down for a nap under the big blanket.
Hope you had a good Halloween,
Love and Woofs FredDog
P.S. PennyCat told me that since Halloween is over, Santa is right around the corner. I said no he's not, he's in the basement where Mom took him so I would stop barking at him. Maybe I should start to be really good though? Just in case.

Dear Terry, Mom says that you invited me to the PetExpo. I don't know what that is. Mom says there are lots of people and dogs and cats there. It's in the City. The only thing I know about the City is that is where people play baseball. Mom's not sure about taking me. I do really good in the woods. Maybe not so good in the City. I'm scared of cars. Mom said we might try an experiment this weekend to see how I would do in the City. I hope I do good because it would be great to see you!
This morning I woke Mom up really early. Mr Bunny was right under the window!! Then I heard Jimmy barking across the creek. He hasn't busted loose in awhile but he sounds OK, so I barked back. Then the wind blew all the leaves around in the driveway and I barked some more. FREDDDD!!! Mom made me lay back down. Since I was up, I played with the covers. All of them! Until Mom had no covers! FREDDDDDD!!! OK OK! I stopped playing with the covers. The pillows were a lot of fun until...FREDDDDDDD!! Mom finally got up! I barked I was so excited! That woke Dad up too. PennyCat was sleeping on the table and she woke up! Finally we got the day started! Dad said he will play some ball and tricks with me today. Mom said I hope so because I need some sleep!

Dear Terry, Today I had a scary. I heard noise and I didn't know what was going on. Dad was asleep! I tried to wake him up but he was snoring. I stuck my head under the couch as far as it would go, I was really scared. Only my nose fits under the couch but it made me feel less scared. Dad woke up and said Fred! What's wrong?? And he laid down on the floor with me and put his arm around me until I wasn't so scared anymore. Dad didn't hear anything but he can't hear like I can. Mom says he is selectively hard of hearing. I don't know what that is but he sure didn't hear what I heard. As soon as Mom got home Dad told her all about it. I did do something good today. I waved Bye Byes to Grammy! She was leaving and stopped her car right by the front door and I waved Bye Byes! but she didn't see me cause I'm short and part of the door blocked what she could see. Dad was real proud of me! Mom gave me a super good treat when she heard that! She picked it out special from the Treat Box.
Hope you had a good day,

Dear Terry, Boy am I tired out! Yesterday me and Mom did everything together. We started cleaning off the deck for winter time. Then we cleaned inside. Mom and me ran errands together too. But the day was too nice to keep working the whole day. So Mom took me over to the Puppy Park again!!! No weirdos this time! Good friendly dogs were there and a police man. He brought his dog. She wasn't a police dog and she ran really fast. Mom let me play on the big dog side. I ran and ran and ran. Then I would run back to Mom and then take off running some more! Sometimes I ran so far away I couldn't see Mom and I would come racing back barking and barking. When we got home from the Puppy Park, Mom and Dad made picnic food and we had a picnic! Dad made everything on the Cheeseburger Machine. Hot dogs and of course Cheeseburgers!! I was so tired I couldn't even make it all the way into my bed. Today I was busy again helping Mom. We inspected the yard this morning. Front and Back. I helped her make Cupcakes. Carrot Cupcakes. I like Carrots. Me and Mom worked on the deck again. Only Mom worked harder than me. I fell asleep by accident in the sun. I'm already in my bed. I'm going to sleep all night long. Mom said I HOPE SO!

Dear Terry, Crazy stuff going on around here! Last night when Mom got home, we played ball and watched TV until Mom fell asleep. But I wasn't tired even though everyone else was sleeping so I woke Mom up and tried to get her to play. That didn't work, so I decided to play with the blankets by myself. What fun! Then I barked out the windows, I don't know why, but it was fun too so I barked some more! I did sleep a little bit but then the Sun came up! I woke Mom up right away to tell her. She finally got up and we started the morning chores. Something was wrong!! HEY! Someone had been sleeping in MY blanket! Penny Cat!!! I barked a whole lot about that! I ran to find PennyCat but she was hiding. HUMMPH. Then the men came to work on the road and there were big trucks and people and beeping and loud noises. I ran into the bedroom but the curtains were in the way! Mom came to the rescue though and opened the curtains so I could see what they were doing. I barked at them too. Mom said I've been cooped up too long in the house and we went for a walk! Mom said she walked the feet right off of me. I sure was tired when we got back to the car. It was a good walk though! We saw lots of birds and the Mallard Family was out swimming on the pond. I barked at them and they quacked at me! The big tall water bird with the flappy wings was there too. We even went to the store after that and bought Dad a paper. I'm really tired now. I'm laying down on my blanket but I rearranged it so I have a spot to sleep on and Penny has a spot too.
Barks and Wags, FredDog
P.S. PennyCat here. That Crazy Fred finally left his blanket out and I rolled all over it, like he does with my blanket. And I moved it. I know that makes him crazy when his stuff isn't where he left it. He tried to find me but I was hiding up high from him. I think I might do it again tonight. Mom says I'm instigating. That must mean that I did a good thing! Meow Meow, PennyCat!

Dear Terry, Me and Mom were going to go for a walk today. It's raining. Kindof ruined everything. Mom even had the leash out. So I laid down to think. Hmmm What to do on a rainy day. I know! I ran and pulled my blanket off my bed. It's the big one. I dragged it into the kitchen. Then I hurried up and got my scrap of bone from under the couch. Just the thing for a rainy day! This was going to be so much fun! I hide the scrap in the blanket, shake the blanket up real good and then the bone comes flying out and lands somewhere! I played until I was out of breath. Whew! Maybe tomorrow me and Mom can go for a walk. I'm going to take a nap now after all that fun!

Dear Terry, Dad's Home! He still has a bum foot but that didn't matter! He was still able to play ball with me just like Mom said! In honor of him coming home, I dug out my pig ear that I had put in my special hiding spot, and brought it out to eat right on his foot. It doesn't get any better than that! Dad took a nap after awhile. I was right there to watch him breathe. I kept touching him with my nose to make sure he was still ok. When Dad woke up we played the blanket game and then we played the tunnel game and it was great fun! As soon as I woke up this morning I ran and found Dad and made sure he was OK. He was! Whew! Because I had kind of dozed off last night after all the excitment!

Dear Terry, Me and Mom took a field trip today! First, we took care of PennyCat. She was hungry. I always help Mom make up her food bowl. I get to lick the spoon clean of smooshie food. Yum! Then me and Mom went outside and it was all windy and leaves were blowing all around. That always makes me act silly. Mom said I have an idea Fred! We went back inside and she grabbed her keys and away we went! Nature Park here we come! Oh the leaves were really blowing all around there! I was jumping and snapping at them, trying to catch them. What fun! We walked all through the mud and the leaves. We had acorns fall on our heads too when a big gust of wind blew through the trees. It was great! After all that excitement, Mom turned the wrong way out of the park! I thought for sure we were going to the Tractor Supply store. Nope, we drove right past it. Mom took a new to me road and we ended up at the Burger Palace for some breakfast! Then of all things, I heard Dad's voice in the car! I've been missing Dad since his bum foot has him at the Hospital again. Mom's been keeping me busy with all kinds of stuff to do. I still miss Dad. Mom says he will come home soon. I hope so. Yesterday, I collected all my toys - Spot, Mr. Bubbles, chew stick, Yellow Puppy, the special balls from Grammy, my blanket and Dad's blanket and put them all in my bed. That way Dad will know where to find all of them. When he comes home, Mom said he will play games with me for sure! I'm Ready!

Dear Terry, There is a lot of noise in the neighborhood today. My pal Cheyenne next door started all this crazy barking early this morning. I woke Mom up right away. We looked out the window together to see what all the commotion was about. Mom said Oh! It's a Tree Truck! I didn't know what that was so Mom told me it cuts down big big trees. We watched it pull into the neighbors yard a few houses away. Cheyenne was barking like mad and running all around. Mom put my leash on so we could go outside and see better. Cheyenne had to go back inside she was to excited. Mom said we could stay outside and long as I didn't act like a loon. You should see how big that truck is! We watched it drive through the yard all the way to the back and the men rode high up in the air in it. It looked like they were flying. I've never seen anything like it! It was pretty neat! Lots and lots of noise though. I don't like that part. We went back inside but I'm going to keep watching from the window. Best seat in the house!

Dear Terry, Sometimes Mom goes to the store and good things happen! Like I get treats. Or she brings home Snacks. Or a new collar. Today Mom went to the store and I don't even know what to say. At first I was all excited she got me something! I didn't smell any food so I thought, must be a collar! Or maybe a new coat for winter! She got me bats for on my head. Sparkly Bats. Mom said they will look great with my Halloween Costume. I'm a skeleton every year you know! Now THAT'S cool, a skeleton! I dunno about bats on my head. Even Dad said Oh My Gosh, Bats on his head! I ran to Dad and avoided Mom. She took my picture anyways. Woof.
Barks and Bats, FredDog
P.S. Penny Cat here. If cats could laugh, I would. Meow Meow!

Dear Terry, Today Mom ran an errand, but I wasn't allowed to go with her. When she came home I was very excited! Dad took me out to meet her and he let the leash go so I could run to her. I'm good at that. I run right to Mom like I'm supposed to. Only I didn't. I was so excited I ran past her right to the car and pawed at the door so we could go for a ride! FRED! Mom caught me and we went back inside. That's OK because Mom came home and that was very exciting! But then Mom had to go to work and that wasn't so exciting. Dad came up with a good idea later on. He said, Let's make pierogie! Now THAT is exciting! And guess what! PennyCat came out to help us! Me and PennyCat don't do a whole lot of stuff together. Probably because I end up barking too much. This time I helped Dad chopped onions and she laid down and watched us work! Dad talked to both of us as he worked. It was very nice and I laid down not far from PennyCat. What a great time it was! I hope PennyCat does that more often!

P.S. PennyCat here. FredDog was being really good today. We had the best time watching Dad work in the kitchen. He talked and talked to us. Fred even stayed calm enough to lay down and he kind of dozed off. I still kept an eye on him because he can get to barking at the the silliest of things. When Dad finished cooking I said Meow Meow and went to find a quiet place to sleep. I thought about going over to FredDog but decided to Let Sleeping Dogs Lie. JuneauCat told me that. But I was tempted to bonk him on the nose just because! MeowMeow PennyCat

Dear Terry, Today was Cleaning Day! Mom didn't tell me. I don't like cleaning day because the Vacuum comes out. Both Mom and Dad Vacuumed! I ran around barking at it. Then Mom cleaned the bathroom and I could smell the stinky cleaner. It makes me sneeze. But we did some fun stuff too! Mom got me a new ball!! I was so excited I couldn't stop running and making it roll all over the house! Mom would throw it and I would run around some more. It's real slippery and it's hard to pick up so I make it roll more with my nose. Mom took me outside and I chased the neighbor's cat. I'm not supposed to chase Penny Cat but no one ever said anything about cats in the yard! Mom made me sit down and calm down. Dad's making grilled cheese now I can smell it. I bet he makes a little one for me! He knows how much I like cheese and Dad comes up with some good stuff for me to try out. I bet it will taste great!
