Merry Christmas !!!!

Hi There Everyone,
This is your canine friend Sir "Fudge" A-Lot speaking from the north at Spirit Point Wilderness Academy & Camp.

The last time I talked to you all, it was to introduce my new little brother "Dozer" to you. I bet you all thought he was cute- right?

Well, that's certainly what I thought when I first met him. He has been with us now for three weeks and BOY has he changed things around here. I did not think that puppies could be that busy. He loves to play and he seems to think that every little thing he finds is a toy, like Mike's socks, the remotes, the bed covers and especially the garbage. I try to set him straight but so far I do not seem to be making any in-roads. He likes to follow close behind wherever I go and sometimes, I swear he even walks in my paw prints. When the walks get boring for him, he usually grabs onto my tail or my ears. I don't really mind that too much but sometimes he grabs places that I don't appreciate, if you know what I mean.

Mike realizes that sometimes those little sharp baby teeth actually hurt me when he nips and Mike always stops to make sure I am okay. Mike is starting to spend a lot of time training Dozer and often he recruits my help also which I like because it makes me feel rather important. Mike constantly reminds me that one day he will no longer be a puppy and it makes me feel so good when he says that he hopes Dozer will be just like me when he grows up. I think that Dozer and I are lucky to have a human buddy like our Mike and don't tell Mike, but I really love that little Dozer fellow to.

Well Boys & Girls, Moms, Dads, Grandparents & Teachers, I told you last time that it had started snowing up here in the north country and I don't think it has stopped since then. Now we have lots of snow and Mike and I have been going on countless walks in the bush. Mike tells me we are staking out our winter trails for snow shoeing and cross country skiing for when you all start arriving after Christmas. It will be fun to see you all again, I cant wait until Spirit Point is filled with little people running all over and the sound of laughter again fills the air, not to mention of cause the delicious smells that waft through that big fan once the big kitchen gets into operation again.

Mike was telling me today that there are only 6 more sleeps until Christmas day and 12 sleeps until New Years. He says that this is when we say goodbye to 2008 and welcome to 2009. That's really all like double Dutch to me but Mike seems pretty excited and I hear him wishing everyone a Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year so I thought that tonight as I say good night, I would try to sound a little like my human counterparts and extend those words to to all of you from all of us so here goes my first Christmas greeting.

I Sir "FUDGE" A_Lot and my little brother "DOZER"
Wish All Of You -----
A Very Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year.
