Olym-pups

 Summer Olym-pups

While millions watched the summer games

played out in Paris on television, Mike and I

enjoyed our own summer Olympic champions

as they performed here.

 

Roxy came out on top in three major events.

She won the gold in “squirrel chasing without

harming a single squirrel.” She also placed

first in the “barking and bouncing at the same

time” event. And although the competition

was tough, Roxy landed on top with the “most 

drool in a single dinner session.”

It should be noted that Roxy was disqualified in one of the eating events for eating her opponent’s food before eating her own.

Honeybee was not to be outdone, going for the

gold in protecting Mike from Becky and winning

by a landslide. Although she failed to keep

Becky from entering Mike’s office, (Becky was

able to pass her by without even a nip) she 

tried… whereas Roxy allowed full entry to

Mike’s office without a whimper. Honeybee also

reached the top podium in meatloaf devouring,

though that was a close match. Roxy won the

silver in that one.



Honeybee

Most notably, in the spirit of fair play,

Honeybee was able to coach Roxy in daily

napping. The two tied for the gold in that

event.


Graded on form and presentation, Honeybee

wins the top honors for regal beauty while 

Roxy claims highest marks on pure cuteness. 

And the cat? Tiki turned her nose up at the

foolishness of the dog’s daily antics. She

merely strolled off, stretched, yawned and

curled up assuring all spectators she

regarded the dogs as non-contestants in her

view of the animal world.

    1. Thank you, Melani! They are sweet critters, but I'm afraid Honeybee is fading on us.
