"The Things I Grow" or "High Fives To Me" or "Cheech and His Pot"

Maybe I should title this post "Dumb Animals"! Either way thought I would share my latest dilema...well one of them. First I had the cat in my Christmas tree...
Ahhh that's so cute you say...mmmm yea whatever. When DJ moved home Cheech, his dog, came with him. The dog becomes MOM's dog because it's my job to feed all who live here. I suggested, in October, DJ build a dog house for Cheech. His reply went something like this, "Mom that dog don't get cold! Look at all of his hair! Geez! Besides it don't get cold here!" blah blah blah. Well when the temperature dropped and the rains came Cheech got cold and I noticed Teele tossed an old saddle blanket on the porch for him. But that wouldn't do, oh no Cheech decided to take up residence in the pot with my asparagus fern! So today I look out the window and Cheech is sleeping in the pot when I get the brainy idea to put the saddle blanket in the matching pot that doesn't have anything planted in it. I go inside and wait. Then I look out the window and drum rolls please!!!........
I was so HAPPY! See the other pot that was his old bed. So I'm giving my self pats on the back, silent high fives and seriously thinking about dancing a jig. I can't wait for Teele & DJ to see what I did. Why I'm so smart why didn't I think of this earlier! Then I decide to take another peak and this is what I see...
What the heck! Maybe this post should be called "STUPID HUMANS"! So I shrug my shoulders, grab my camera and BLOG the DOG! Okay so an after thought...Cheech of Cheech and Chong loved pot...maybe I should change his name!

That is so funny that he sleeps in a pot! Dogs are so strange sometimes! :) I love that post and how you can laugh things off.

Poor Cheech! I about died laughing the first couple of times I would walk past Cheech and see him in the old pot!

looks like a nice bed for him! One thing about it, he'll probably outgrow that pot before long and be looking for a bigger one! and you're right. Danica's sense of humor is like none other. haha

You know what they say, there are no dumb dogs, just dumb owners. And look who usually run things, dogs and grandkids, what can we say? If he outgrows the pot, let me know and I'll send mine up to you, they won't grow out of it!!

This is hilarious!! This isn't the first animal to take up residence in your pots if I'm recalling correctly!

Amanda your right! There was DAISY and we always laughed because of her name and the fact she lived in the flower pots! I'm assuming you made it to the Desert Hawking Classic's in Kingman safe and sound. I was worried.
