So, I'm starting to get the hang of this campin' thing. I like it! If you are new to camping like I was, here's some words to live by. It's Camping, Riley Style!!
Rules for optimum fun. . .
#1 - Take over the bark park, you and your homies must stay there and scare away all the competition. Once thing I've noticed is that most people that camp with dogs have those yippy little things - REAL campers have us big dawgs.
#2 Best place to hang out at your site - directly under the stairs. If you are lucky, you can trip Mom coming out of the camper with a plate full of raw meat for the grill - SCORE!!
#3 If you must have a small dog camping with you, make sure it's a really cool dog like my cousin Chloe - she can kick my butt most times. Don't let her size fool you, not for a minute. . .
#4 Stake your claim. There are spots in the camper that you must own. Make them your own - who knows, maybe Dad will let you drive?
Ok, if Dad won't let you drive - at least pick out your barking spots. These would be the places to bark out of that gives you the maximum amount of noise to leave the camper. Here's a couple of my favorites. .
Make sure you have a spot on each side of the camper - then you can bark at people as they are walking towards your rig and then again when they are walking away from your rig. . . You want to make sure they know you are there!
Since Myrtle Beach, Mom and Dad have made it a point to introduce me to various bodies of water and as you can see by the expression on my face, I'm not too interested in the ocean.
And go figure - here I am, sitting in the water. Notice by the expression on my face that I'm not interested in swimming. . . Mom - I'm sitting, not swimming. There's a BIG difference.
And unbeknownst to me, one step forward is a dropoff in the water - aswimming, I go!!
Stay tuned - I'll be coming up with lots more camping rules for all you newbies. Until then -
CHOW, BABY!
