We have a special treat for you today – a guest post! We’re participating in a post exchange with our pal Emerald from The Blab Labs. Go visit The Blab Labs to read our post and check out Emerald’s wonderful blog! Take it away, furry friend…
First, I would like to say thank you to Pup Fan for allowing me the honor of being a guest on this blog.
Second, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Emerald. I’m a–wait, if you want to know about me, you can visit my blog, http://www.theblablabs.com/. Right now I’m here to write a guest post about my most recent concern…
My pawrents have been exhibiting strange behaviour with their toys and I’m a little worried. We have two shiny things in the house that are turning my mom into a nutcase. Every now and then both of those things start making weird noisy sounds until mom dashes across the house to grab one of them. Its like she is fetching something but once she gets there, she gets all excited and makes a big fuss about nothing. I just don’t get it.
Do you know what I’m talking about? My humans act as though they are having conversations with little people in the thing!
I try to stop her every time (I’d like to be credited as the dog that keeps my mom sane) by jumping on her, tackling her, or nudging the thing out of her hand but she insists on holding it on her head. She only pauses her crazy act to force me to lie down and stay before she ignores me and acts weird again.
It doesn’t stop there. I am a good dog and of-course I lie down quietly for a while. I look at her intently, because although she has this crazy-person-blank-stare, I’m hoping she’ll let me get up soon. I know for sure she is going insane because when she finally says, “OK” to me and I get up to knock the thing out of her hand again (I SWEAR she said “OK”), she acts super annoyed and makes me sit again! Its like she can’t make up her mind whether she needs help or not.
“Sit. stay, Emerald.”… “OK.”
“No! Sit stay, Emerald.”… “OK.”
Eventually she puts the thing down and acts as though nothing even happened. Its so random. This weird habit has been repeating itself more and more frequently. The only thing that has changed is that she is giving me less “OK’s” to help her out.
Should I be worried? Do your humans have similar issues or are mine just crazy?
Nice to meet youz Emerald. I tinks my mom is just as crazy as yours… 🙂
Woofs and Licks,

Hey dude! I'll go check out your blog, but first, I'm going to give you a bit of advice – try eating it. I did that with moms little one and she doesn't talk to it nearly as much anymore!

Nice to meet you Emerald! I will be sure to stop by your blog!
Your pal, Pip
So very great to meet you Emerald!! My mom is completely nuts. She does the same thing and it drives me to the edge. I always think she's talking to me and she isn't or says she isn't. Just plain nuts!! Lots of love, Holly and mom
I'm glad to hear that some of you other dogs also have crazy pawrents. Thanks for sharing. Its a relief to know its somewhat "normal" and I don't have to worry about mom anymore.
Emerald – it's actually funny that this was the topic of your guest post! A friend's new puppy managed to put his tooth through the screen of her Blackberry… he thought it was a toy. Now she needs a new phone.
Great to meet Emarald! Look at that shniy coat! We'll definitely go check out your blog!

Hi Emerald! Yes all paw parents are a bit nutty. I love my shiny silver thing and talk into it all the time. But don't worry, I love my dog more!
