Mama sees me an she eben yells at me! Dunt know wot all da fuss wuz about. It din na taste all dat good enyway. Den mama puts Bodie in his sleep den an we wuz on our way wit da man dat drives da "go fur ride." Wen we stops, we is at anudder dokter ob da dogs. Mama sez it was sumpin like E-mer-jen-cee. Da lady wuz bery bery nice ta me. We wuznt dere bery long, den back inna "go fur ride."

Chance an me likes to bark an bark at all da nu dogs we sees on our walkies. Is grate fun but mama done na likes it like we duz. Den she takes us outside wiff a funny leesh an makes us just walk an walk an walk. She dunna takes us bote annie more only one ob us atta time. Mebee dats why weez so tired in da affernoons.

We getta go in da "go fur ride" do agin wit the man dat talks funny ta us. He is sayin' sumpin but we dinna unnerstan any ob it. Is 'K do 'cause he gibes us lots and lots of pets. We likes him!

Mama's not smilin' so much da past coupla daze. I tink she is bery worried bout my brudder. Chance is bery bery sick rite now and gots ta go ta da dokter ob da dogs more dan I do. I dunna unnerstan it all. I tries to play wit my toys by myself, but it inna no fun witout my brudder. Mama sez Chance is gonna get bedder meybe tummoro.

I cants even go chomp on him till den.

'K, dis is Chance. Me an my brudder Bodie wuz bery tired da past couple of suns since we gots ta dis Poland place. We is feelin' betters taday and we is playin' wit each udder an our toys agin. I tink I unnerstan wot a 'venture is now...

"Chance, we ain't in Ohio enymore.."

Whew, wotta few daze it wuz! Dis is Bodie. We wuz in da room wit da long hallways wit our new mama. Den after da sun went up in the sky we went fur a big ride in da "go fur ride". We gots ta sleep while Mama drove da "go for ride." She drove and drove till we gots ta anudder big howse wit anudder sheltie who wuz Beau. Dis wudna our howse wit our Mary mama or our fur mama, but it wuz bery nice and we had fun beein nosy an findin' stuff.

(dis is Chance...Bodie was skeerd a Beau cause he wuz bigger dan us)

I wudna!!! Sos we wuz der till da sun wuz up in da sky agin. An dat morning a bunch of udder shelties showed up wit der hooman mamas. Der was Piwit an Beau an Issa, an anudder sheltie I don' member da name. Der wuz anudder husky dog dat lived on da udder side of da fence an his name wuz Diesel. We all wuz runnin' da fence wit Diesel an barked an barked. It wuz lots a fun! Den the hooman mamas made us sit in da hot sun fur sumpin called a pikchur. We didna like dat...

After all the hooman mamas and udder shelties left, Beau's mama and our mama went to da place dat has all da dog stuff an all da food! We gots new callers again and lot a new toys! Den we went to anudder place dat had dog stuff an gots even more toys! Our new mama must love us bery much!

Den later on dat nite we went in the "go fur ride" anudder time wit Beau's hoomans ta dis big big room. It wuz the biggest room dat my brudder an I eber saw. It wuz also bery noisy wit lots of hoomans. Mama puts us in our sleep dens wit sum food and bery cold water. Mama sez she wuz gonna see us soon an we shood sleep. Den a man came and took us thru sum big doors an down sum halls to da outside. Bote Chance an I wuz a little skeerd cause our sleep dens wuz moobin' on der own. But den we wuz placed in our own room. We hadda lite and it was a cool place ta stay. All ob a sudden da room was moovin' an shakken but we wuz safe in our dens. We didna unnerstan wot wuz goin' on, but all of a sudden the shakken stopped an da lites jus glowed a little. So we gots to sleep a long time.

Next ting we know, der was a big bump an more shakken but den we stopped. Perty soon der wuz anudder lady hooman who takes us out ob our room and our sleepin' dens is moobin by demselfs agin! We don' know were we wuz, but it wuz hot outside. Da next ting we know two men wuz carryin' our sleepin' dens into anudder big room like we wuz in before. Know wot? Mama wuz right der to meet us! We wuz so bery happy ta see her agin! She was bery happy ta see us too.

We wuz put on a moobin cart an we wuz weeled outta da big room ta a smaller room where us an mama was met by a man we neber seen befor. Mama sez he was our new daddy. We wudna shoor bout him fur awhile but he seems ta be 'K an mama give him kisses. We gets weeled outta da smaller room to a place dat has lots of "go fur rides" where mama gits us outta our sleeping dens and we gets a big drink a watter. Mama puts our leeshes on us an we gets ta go fur walkies.

DEN, we hasta gets in anudder "go fur ride" but sumpin is diffrent dis time. Da man dats drivin' us sounds funny. We don know wot he says but he pets us lots. I sticks my head outta da "go fur ride" and ebryting smells diffrent. I looks at Chance an tells him "we ain't in Ohio enymore."

FINALLY, we gets ta dis reely big howse. It must be miles up in da air! Our new daddy meets us at da "go fur ride" an mama takes us fur walkies agin. We get dun wit our walkies and we go inna da big howse wit a bery small room dat moobs up an down. Chance was a little skeerd ob the up 'n down room but he gots used to it. We goes tru a door and mama sez we is at our new home. It seems bery nice wit lots of tings to inbestigate. An we gots lots and lots a toys we dunna hafta share wit any udder dogs!

Still, bote Chance an me are bery, bery, tired now. I tinks we needs ta go to our sleepin dens for a big sleep. Maybe tummorro we wunt feel so sleepy.

'K, dis is Chance...

Tuday was not noormal fer me and Bodie. Our new mama came to da howse ta see us agin. We wuz happy ta see her. She and our Mary mama had to do sumpin to Bodie's ear furst. Den she puts our dog howses in her "go fur ride" and puts us in 'em. Our Mary mama sez we are goin' on a 'venture, wuteber dat is...

Den our new mama takes us to da place that has all de dog stuff innit. We saw lots of peeple and eben anudder dog wit his hooman. Bodie barked and barked at him and showed him hoose boss. Our new mama sez she gots us stuff for our 'venture. She gots us sum new cookees, sum new toys, and sum new food tingies sos we kin eat our food. Dat wuz bery importent to us!

Den we went back ta da place dat has da long halls and de reelly nice cold room. It wuz bery bery hot out tuday so we liked it lots! We played on da big bed den tooks a nap.

Our Mary mama come by ta see us too but den she left. Dat's 'K tho 'cause Bodie an me just playd 'n playd all da time.

Now is time for our big sleep. Bodie is sleepin' now sos I gots to tell u eberting. Shur wish I new wot a 'venture was...

Dis is Bodie again.

'K, so our new mama comes ta our howse agin t'day. Sumpin's up cause she gots me an Chance new callars an dis contrapshun dat goes 'round our fronts. We hasta put our feeties in first. We thinks she called it a "halter." We gots ta wear it when we goes for our walkies. Da leeshes gets hooked on top our backs. I was ok wit it, but my brudder, Chance, didn' know what ta do. It took him awhile to not be skeerd of it. He be ok now. We wuz happy ta see our new mama again. She bring us prezents!!

Then we gots ta ride in da car wit our two mamas ta go see the docter of da dogs. It was fun ta bark at all da udder dogs in da big room. I showed 'em who was top dog in der! My two mamas wuzint happy 'bout dat tho... The docter and our new mama talked 'bout us and put scratches on a bunch of papers. It had sumpin ta do wit us an dis place called "Poland."

Den we went ta dis place wit a bunch of long halls. Neber been to sumpin like dat before. We wents down dis big long hall wit lots a doors. We went trew one door and da room hadda big bed that we gots ta rest on 'cause it was still bery bery hot out of da car.

Den we gots ta go to dis grate place that had all sorts of dog stuff fur us! It had bunches of food bowls but dey wuz all empty! Den we hadda go back home 'cause it wuz hot and we wuz bery tired.

It was a bery bizzy day for us. I hope we gedda do it agin t'morrow!

'K, I gonna go chomp on my brudder...
