Welcome my friends to another great week of Paw Time with Houdini. This week has been awesome – isn’t every week? Of course, it’s been busy too. Last weekend, we had a family meeting and Bacon was advised that he is going to summer camp. Now I thought it would be cool but Bacon is so against it. That oinker really doesn’t like nature does he? He has tried every excuse and had one-on-one meetings with mom and dad trying to wiggle himself out of the situation. But it’s not going to work. Mom is insisting on him going to Summer Camp – seven entire days in nature.
This week also ended Shark Week. And you knew it was coming, didn’t you. Mom was going to dress me up like Shark Bait. I knew it. So finally, she got my costume out and put it on me. Rolls doggy eyes. I let her get one somewhat potential photograph. I just wasn’t feeling it. That outfit was H.O.T. Did I mention we are in the south here and it is H.O.T.? It is. So she got a quicky picture.
There is a hat that actually comes up over my head and it has little slits for my ears to poke through. She had me all fixed up for like five seconds when she put me down in the ‘waters’ of the hardwood floor – Barks!
But anyway, she got a little picture to submit to Discover for Shark Week. Don’t I look mean and ready to eat you up?! Okay maybe not.
I also had Doggy Daycare this week and got to go up to Nana’s house. Bacon tried really hard and persuaded me to talk to Nana about his situation. He doesn’t believe me but even Nana said that it would be good for him to be away from mom/dad and be with others for Summer Camp. They are really pushing this. I’ll be honest with you. I kind of feel sorry for the guy a bit.
But back to doggy daycare. This was the day that I go to Nana’s. Me and the other pooches at Nana’s get the works. Danielle the groomers comes out to the house and gives us all special time in her R.V. We get baths, massages, blow drys, cuts, nails – the entire works! Then I get to hang out with Nana, Tinkerbelle and Dingo until mom picks me up when she gets off of the worky place. Also me being at doggy daycare, this gives daddy his day to get the big stuff done at the Hotel Thompson. You know, washing the bed sheets, changing the beds, getting dinner ready, mopping. Things he supposedly can’t do with me under his feet. I don’t know what he means by that. I’m just there helping.. right?
Well that’s all for me my friends – yawns – I hope you had a wonderful week as well. Happy weekend!

We’ve been wondering what went down at the big family meeting. We really feel for Bacon, being away from home for a whole 7 days is pretty harsh. We hope he’s going to be ok.

I know my friends. I’ve tried everything in getting out of this predicament but mom is standing firm. I need to be a regular pig for SEVEN days at Summer Camp. Really? I don’t feel like I need to do that. I’m not a regular pig. XOXO – Bacon

Barks! I think he will too. There’s no telling what trouble he will find without having his television. ❤ Houdini

Summer camp for pets? Well, as long as the humans know it is for them more than for Bacon.

I’m with your bro Bacon… it’s hard to be there without the furmily… except Miss Piggy is there, then it could be the summer of love :o)

Barks! See you never know. Crazier things have happened. Bacon could fall in love. He could realize that living in the wild is something he’s been missing. He could realize that he likes playing with other oinkers with his abilities? It could happen… right? ❤ Houdini

Doggie Daycare sounds like fun (except for the bath part), but I don’t see how your daddy can get anything done with no help from you. Go figure. You should get up there and double check his bed making work thoroughly.
Love and licks,

Barks! I know, right. I don’t know how he made the bed without me jumping around and rolling under the sheets. I look at that as my lending a paw to him. ❤ Houdini

I think that all of the pooches need to get together and let Bacon know that nature is really a lot of fun!

He’s been talking to Tinkerbelle and Dingo so I hope he feels better. Personally, I think he is going to have a better time than he thinks. ❤ Houdini

Hey me friend! I tried my best to keep mommy down this weekend, lots of naps, plenty of rest and made sure she took her medicines. She still has issues in her hip which has flared up pretty bad but she’s moving. Slow but moving. We got lots of loving all the way around. Hope you had a fantastic weekend as well – barks! ❤ Houdini
