The Country Squire

Imagine my surprise a week ago! The Alphas surprised me with a trip to Martha's Vineyard and all I had to do was park my furriness on the back seat of my Den on Wheels while they drove almost 9 hours. (this is why I have not been in touch lately with my dear doggie friends!)

The Alpha's first order of business was to see that everything that Makes Fenway Happy was packed up: my Everlasting Fun Ball aka Green Ball, my competition standard frisbee, special Wellness Super 5 kibble, Omega-3 Fish Oil capsules, Vitamin E capsules, tennis ball play bone, soft bxw stuffie bone, agility equipment (more on that later), special leashes, collars and of course a supply of my favorite dessicated liver treats.

Oh, and don't forget the digital and video cameras so that all my most important moments are recorded so they can be treasured at a later date. I even have my own suitcase! There was scarcely room for The Alpha's stuff, but they managed to cram in whatever silly things humans need.

When we got to Martha's Vineyard, I blossomed. The Inner Fenway came forth. When I am on my island, I no longer feel the need to suppress my true nature—I am Master of My Domain, Lord of the Manor and the King of the Castle. This is a place where I can run free and safe and there is sunshine, free time, fun & games and all manor of dog sports & activities. I am even welcomed in stores and on beaches!

The Alphas took notice of my new persona and promptly came up with a new name for me: The Squire.

It's all about attitude, my friends! 

The Squire is at the top o' the heap....and Lord of All He Surveys!

These are my lands. 

They include forests for roaming and grassy plains for sports.

The Squire is proud of his realm!

Here is one of my serfs (aka Ms. Alpha), constructing

weave poles for my amusement.

When she was finished with the agility stadium,

I ordered Ms. Alpha to till my fields and plant vegetables.

When Ms. Alpha is done hanging the laundry,

I have her toss me the Green Ball about 60 times.

The Squire needs to rest now and then.

So many activities for The Squire to choose from:

Green Ball, frisbee or agility jumps.

The Squire welcomes all who pass to his door—

and maybe some frisbee!

Squire Fenway likes to survey his fiefdom....

The Squire is proud of his agility course.

Nice work, Ms. Alpha!

 

The Squire strikes a noble pose at his beachfront,

Squire Fenway is Lord of the Waters!

The Squire beckons all his Doggie Bloggies to come to his lands!
