Disgusting sign on our lane.  Of course none of it really applies to me!

My Softer Side

Even I think I'm cute and somewhat debonair. 

Porky

Porky, the old man.....Mom says he is the easiest to take pics of because all he does is lay around!

Sacha

     It's a little humiliating, but you might as well know that I live in a three dog home.  You would think that one little rat terrier would be quite enough dog for one family.  I get along just fine with Porky, the 13 year old half Walker Coon dog, half German Shepherd.  Maybe it's because he doesn't do much except lie around, enjoying retirement.  But then there is Sacha.   She is a half Australian Shepherd, half Catahoula.  That's right, I said Catahoula, and she is more like the cat in Catahoula, than a dog.  I highly do not recommend getting one unless you live far, far away from other houses, (she runs like a wild woman...I have no idea what that means),....like in Louisiana, where they are the state dog.  Hmmmm, do other states have a state dog?    Any of you states need a state dog?  Let's consider the rat terrier....for obvious reasons.    
     Focus.....Anyway, catahoulas are used to hunt wild boars and even wear little vests for protection.  I don't know what the big deal is about boars.  I think it is far more important to rid the world of mice.  That is one of my missions in life.  I frequently check out the horse tank where the horse feed is kept and am sometimes lucky enough to come across one.  Mouse, not boar. 

     Purebred Catahoulas are very hard to find outside Louisiana and Texas.  Mom happened on Sacha and gave her to Dad for a birthday present.  I think a doggie bone would have been better.  Her one mission in life is to hunt me.   Maybe she thinks I am a boar.  She crouches like a leopard and springs up and attacks me and grabs me with her hands.  Yep, her paws are like hands.  She delights in holding me down with her hands!  Actually, she is a clown....or crazy....or a crazy clown.  Her picture says it all, doesn't it?

Hi, I'm Spud.  Welcome to spudyspot, the place for dog heros and their people, or average dogs and their people, or just people who would like to follow the antics of a little dog.  Oh, mom says there will be other interesting things too, like recipes.  Only if I get to sample the goods.  Also included will be some animal tips. Hmmmm, I hope that doesn't include some sort of "training".   Is now the time to give the hide me under your jacket tip when you sneak, ummm, walk into an unfriendly pet hotel?  Cause I'm really good at reviewing un and friendly dog places and general dog stuff.  You'll see.  She says there may be some kid, pet, garden tips too.  Hey, whose blog is this anyway?  I'm ok with just cute pictures.
