W.T.D Wednesday

What The Dog - is what I say. As if being left at home wasn't bad enough - can you believe Mom didn't bring a back a single treat!!!!!  Oh yeah - she says she went in all the 'boutique dog stores' "Doglishious" "Dogology" "Puppy Power" and such but they mainly had clothes (mostly pink) and very generic treats and toys the kind she won't buy for us. One store didn't even know what bully sticks were when she asked if they had any!!!!   Dogology in Fredricksberg -  had doggie strollers that you could rent by the hour ($25) for when you poochie got tired of walking and you could have you photo taken by them with your dog in front of a cowboy scene for $125!!!

As if getting no treats wasn't bad enough -  she then had the nerve to tell me that the hotel they stayed at ( a Hilton Garden Inn ) allowed doggies!!!  She said it cost an extra $75 a night to have a doggie there but it didn't seem to stop people as she counted at least 20 doggies and most people had 2 dogs with them.  Admitted they were mainly chihuahuas and small breed dogs although there were two beagles in matching green coats there.


It gets worse though - cause then she told me how they went for a walk along the River Walk in San Antonio and about all the dogies she met and PATTED along the way.  W.T.D. MOM!!!! Mom said she loved the River Walk although she says would be a bit worried when it is really busy as someone could easily knock you into the river.  She thought it was funny to see the restaurants had provided blankets for everyone who wanted to sit outside because it was sooooooo cold - (67 degrees).

  1. Wow, that looks like a very nice place to visit. Being Canadian, we would be dressed in shorts at 67 degrees.

  2. But she is making up for it now, right? My MOM loved the River Walk Way when she was there and the boat ride. One of her favorite things to do when she is there. I have not been either. Maybe we should plan a trip together.

  3. Well Reilly, there's only one thing to do. You'll have to tell your mom that you'll forgive her if she gives you a "double helping" of the treats that she already has in the house. She knows those treats are good so what's the problem?

  4. Really... who wants to stay in a stinky hotel anyway??? or get your picture with a cowboy? We don't think you missed much especially if they didn't know what bully sticks are!

  6. What a great place! We travel for dog shows, and always stay at hotels that allow dogs. An extra $75 each night seems quite high though!

  7. Sounds like Mama had a nice trip. We were concerned about the number of outings Mama and Papa took that were dogless this Christmas vacation. However, it was nice to have them home as much as they were.

  8. I was enjoying your post and feeling your dismay with your mom until I read that 67 degrees was cold. Now I am laughing!

    We are enjoying a sunny 15 degree day and it is so much warmer than yesterday!

    But I still think your mom owes you treats.

  10. Living in Key West, 67 is cold. Now when Dad was in North Dakota he remember it being 28 F outside, with snow and wearing shorts and a t-shirt.

    As for Dixie, we are helping out our pals. We hope Dixie's hooman posted to facebook.
