It's NOT the Packers! It's TROUBLE!


This is a difficult post for me. I caught Spike yesterday literally ripping through a National Inquirer - dreamingly gazing at a Maltese. Oh, sure, you all know the Maltese that I'm referring to - the one worth TWELVE million dollars! Holy Major Money Bag, Batman! As I was observing his daydreaming, I saw him glance at the drawer where I keep my will. Sorry, Spike - there isn't anywhere close to 12mil in that!

So I concluded the source of his depression wasn't the fact that the Green Bay Packers are in a rebuild year(s), but it was longing, and yearning over a sassy little bitch named Trouble. How in the world can I break it to him that she is WAY out of his league? His lifestyle would never work with hers. He's a mountain dog. He drags rocks and bugs into the house. He trees squirrels and barks ferociously at raccoons, wild pigs and elk. He has a Harley Davidson hoodie, and a doo rag! Trouble has only seen pictures or heard horror stories of these types of 'bad boys'.

Poor Spike. But, alas, I am sure that at one time or another we're all guilty of setting our sites on someone that is just out of our realm. Yet, at least we understand crushes, and know the difference between a crush and something that may pan out as a real relationship. (Hey , I love Brad Pitt- but the chances of him leaving Angie for ME are slim and none).

Well, meanwhile, Spike will have to just settle for Carley. Afterall,  a Yorkie is a manmade breed, that is made up of the Maltese and Broken Scotch Terrier...so 1/2 of a Maltese that is worth maybe 12.00 will have to suffice for him. Life is hard, Spike, but real is real.



*sigh* such a pathetic look on him - and how do you think she feels????

Mel, did you see where the housekeeper that was in charge of HAND feeding Trouble is SUING because she was continually bitten, and is wearing a wrist brace from muscle dysfunction? I have friends that breed Maltese, and they are wonderful dogs- can't imagine one biting unless provoked.

Spike is dreaming, all right - hopefully about milk bones and not money :-).

Oh this is such a cute blog.  Thank you for sharing you darling spike with us.  He is just fantasizing about the Maltese but his heart really belongs to Carley for she is his best friend!

As a college professor once told my mother, marry for money, live for love.  Of course, she married for love.

Spike, since the chance of any state passing a law that would sanction marriage between two dogs is zippo, you'll have to live for love....which is the better option in any case.  And your "Mommy's" love is worth waaaaay more than $12 million :-)

P.S.  I'd offer to introduce Spike to Samson, my golden retriever, but I think that would be a big stretch!! :-)
