Wally’s Great Adventures. (78)

Posted on by Live & Learn

hello friends, wally here with another update. its been a long time & a lot to catch up on. dad has been taking mom & me on his morning walks to cove island park the last few days. not sure dad is all that excited about bringing pokie me and pokie mom along but here we are. so today at the end of our walk there was big huge news. see me standing out on the rock barking at the geese. mom yelled at me not to jump. dad yelled at mom to leave me alone. dad yelled at me to go get ’em buddy. so, i reared back on my little hind legs and jumped way up high into the water. mom screamed at dad and told him to dive in after me because i looked like i was drowning. dad yelled back at her at said are you out of your mind, he has to learn and he’s not getting his new shoes wet. mom came running to save me…but after gagging on a little water, i floated to the top and doggie paddled to the shore. i looked at mom and she looked ill. i looked at dad and he was cheering! i’ve never seen dad so happy, he was calling me a show quality hunting dog. mom yelled at dad and said that i almost drowneded. mom scooped me up and asked me if I was ok. dad said for god sake’s put me down, he’s not a baby. dad’s right, i’m a big boy now. i will be one year old next week, and mom said she’s making me a cake. yea! have a great weekend. Wally.

  4. So, Wally, did you get a goose? This all happened after Dad said “GO get ’em!”
    So glad you got wet! Fun…right?

      1. Well, Wally, do NOT worry, you’re not supposed to catch them…just play. So many are so happy and proud for you!

  10. Woo hoo! Go get ’em Wally! Mom has to chill a little bit. She’s gonna turn you into a wimp if you and dad let her šŸ˜‰

  11. A year old next week?? This cannot BE!! Wally, like all lucky dogs, you have the best of any lucky youngsters’ parents — the maternal nurturer AND the adventure championer. You need both of those equally in order to grow into your place in the world. šŸ˜ŠšŸ’•

  14. Wally, you are inspiring – though had you sunk, such compliments would be moot. Iā€™m glad your mom was there. You may be impetuous – and your dad may urge you forward – but mom has your back. Letā€™s just say, I was a little scared when I saw you post-jump flailing in the water (and if you want to call me neurotic, Iā€™d agree)ā€¦

  16. I learned to swim in that water, too, many years ago. And I remember how proud I felt after, just like Wally. Good for you, Wally!

        1. Excellent! Time to celebrate! If a squadron of F35 fighter jets flies over your house in your honor, that came from me lol. I really do have a friend in Arizona who is an Air Force jet mechanic. (But I donā€™t think he has that much pull lol.) Too badā€¦ as the trip from Arizona would be easy. F35ā€™s top speed is 1600 mph (Mach 1.6). And it can go from 0 to 1600mph in 16 seconds!! (Yes, I got those numbers from Google šŸ˜Ž.)

          4. LOL!!! Tell Dad that I said: ā€œI have painted myself into a corner!ā€ Ask him to explain what that means. Then tell him you want to watch both Top Gun movies on your birthday. He will understand what Iā€™m talking about!

            No matter what I do, your mom and dad love you like crazy! Because of that, I have no doubt that your birthday will be FABULOUS!! Have a good night Wally! šŸ™ƒ

          5. Thanks Paul. Dad said that Paul better not be talking about fighter jets on a movie. He’s getting his tri-pod all set up for the flyover outside.

          6. Laughing!!! No problem Wally! Tell dad thereā€™s no way for me to know the exact time of the flyover, so he should take a case of beer with him when he goes out and waits for those jets!
