Ernie’s Mornings

Ernie’s mornings start with a bowl of gourmet kibbles, and a trip out to the backyard. After that, it’s rest time for another couple hours.

Since I’ve moved in to the new place, Ernie has adopted this recliner as his own, complete with a couple of fleecy blankies in which to curl up.
Doesn’t this look like the picture of spoiled-ness? As Mums says, it is really too bad that Ernie had to wind up in such a tough life. ha! Ernie’s watching an I Love Lucy rerun. He and I love Lucy!
After the morning rest time, we’re ready for a rousing game of squeaky hedgehog. Ernie lets me know it’s time to play because all of a sudden he’ll just leap up, grab the toy, and stand in front of me squeaking it until I play with him. Subtelty is not his strong point.

Then it’s time for another rest-time. Notice how versatile those blankies are–you can nest in them, or you can use them to cover your eyes from the morning sunlight in order to get a better nap. That’s my doggie!
